     The  following  is  qualified  in its  entirety  by  reference  to the more
detailed information and consolidated financial statements,  including the notes
thereto,  appearing  elsewhere or incorporated by reference in this  Prospectus.
The Company's  fiscal year ends on the Sunday closest to March 31 and the first,
second and third fiscal quarters end on the Sunday closest to June 30, September
30 and December  31,  respectively.  As a result,  there were 53 weeks in fiscal

month-end dates are used herein except in the Consolidated  Financial Statements
and related notes thereto.  Except as otherwise  noted,  all information in this
Prospectus assumes no exercise of the Underwriters' over-allotment option. 

                                 THE COMPANY

     Integrated  Device  Technology,  Inc.  ("IDT"  or the  "Company")  designs,
develops,   manufactures   and  markets  a  broad   range  of   high-performance
semiconductor  products for the  workstation/server,  desktop  computer,  office
automation  and  communications  markets.  The Company  focuses its  development
efforts on providing  proprietary and enhanced  industry-standard  products that
improve   the    performance   of   systems    incorporating    high-performance
microprocessors.  The Company offers over 5,000 product  configurations  in four
product families: SRAM components and modules,  specialty memory products, logic
circuits and RISC microprocessors and subsystems.

     The Company has  introduced 33 new products in a variety of  configurations
since the beginning of fiscal 1994,  including  the ORION 64-bit  microprocessor
and a family  of 3.3 volt  SRAMs.  The  Company  believes  that its  ability  to
introduce new, higher-performance products has resulted in its becoming a market
leader in SRAMs,  SRAM  cache  modules,  FIFO and  multi-port  specialty  memory
products and high-speed  CMOS logic circuits.  The Company has made  significant
investments and commitments in becoming a supplier of RISC based microprocessors
and now offers a family of 20 microprocessor and related peripheral products for
the desktop computing and embedded systems markets.

     IDT  operates  sub-micron  wafer  fabrication  facilities  in San  Jose and
Salinas,  California.  The Company's  Salinas facility  includes a 24,000 square
foot,  class 3  fabrication  line  that is being  converted  from  five-inch  to
six-inch wafers.  The Company's San Jose facility includes a 24,000 square foot,
class 1, six-inch wafer fabrication line. The Company is also building a 192,000
square foot facility  containing a 48,000 square foot, class 1, eight-inch wafer
fabrication line in Hillsboro, Oregon. The Company continues to make significant
investments to advance its  proprietary  CMOS process  technologies  in order to
improve product  performance and lower product costs through  increased  yields.
The  majority  of IDT's  current  products  are  manufactured  using 0.65 micron
process  technologies  and  a  0.5  micron  CMOS  process  technology  is  under
development.  IDT believes that maintaining its own wafer fabrication capability
facilitates  the  implementation  of  advanced  process   technologies  and  new
higher-performance product designs, provides it with a reliable source of supply
of  semiconductors  and allows it to be more  flexible  in  shifting  production
according to product demand.

     The Company  markets its  products on a worldwide  basis  primarily to OEMs
through a variety of channels,  including a direct sales force, distributors and
independent  sales  representatives.  The Company's  end-user  customers include
Alcatel,  AT&T,  Apple  Computer,  Bay Networks,  Canon,  Cisco Systems,  Compaq
Computer, Dell Computer, Digital Equipment, FORE Systems, Hewlett-Packard,  IBM,
Intel, Motorola, Nokia, Olivetti, Radius, Siemens Nixdorf, Silicon Graphics, Sun
Microsystems and Tektronix.

     The Company was  incorporated in California in 1980 and  reincorporated  in
Delaware in September  1987.  Its principal  offices are located at 2975 Stender
Way, Santa Clara, California 95054 and its telephone number is (408) 727-6116.

                                 RISK FACTORS

     In  addition  to the other  information  contained  in or  incorporated  by
reference in this  Prospectus,  the following  risk factors should be considered
carefully in  evaluating  the Company and its  business  before  purchasing  the
shares of Common Stock offered hereby.


POTENTIAL FLUCTUATIONS IN OPERATING RESULTS; DEPENDENCE ON COMPUTER AND
COMMUNICATIONS INDUSTRIES

     IDT's past operating  results have been, and its future  operating  results
may be,  subject  to  quarterly  fluctuations  due to a wide  variety of factors
including  the timing of new product and process  technology  announcements  and
introductions by the Company or its competitors,  competitive pricing pressures,
fluctuations  in  manufacturing  yields,  changes in the mix of  products  sold,
availability   and  costs  of  raw  materials,   the  cyclical   nature  of  the
semiconductor  industry,   industry-wide   wafer-processing  capacity,  economic
conditions in various  geographic  areas and costs associated with other events,
such as an expansion of production  capability or litigation.  For example,  the
Company's  results  in fiscal  1991 were  adversely  affected  by a delay in the
introduction of a higher-speed 256K (kilobit) SRAM (Static Random Access Memory)
and a 1 Meg  (megabit)  SRAM,  an  industry-wide  decrease  in demand  for logic
products and, in late 1991, significant price competition in the SRAM market. In
addition,  due primarily to the write-down of excess inventory and underutilized
capital assets, accruals for patent litigation defense costs and charges related
to  closure of an older  wafer  fabrication  facility,  the  Company  incurred a
significant  loss in fiscal 1992.  Since the end of fiscal 1992,  as a result of
the  introduction  of new  higher-margin  products,  improvement  of  production
processes and expansion of capacity,  as well as the general  improvement in the
semiconductor  market and other  factors,  the  Company  has  achieved  improved
quarterly operating results.  However,  any unfavorable changes in manufacturing
yields, product mix, supply or costs of raw materials,  delays in new product or
process technology  introductions,  underutilization of manufacturing  capacity,
unfavorable  market  conditions,  increased  price  competition or other factors
could adversely affect the Company's  operating  results.  In recent periods the
pricing environment for SRAMs has been favorable,  notwithstanding the long term
trend of price  declines  in the market.  Significant  price  declines  for SRAM
products in the future could adversely affect the Company's operating results.

     The  Company's   operating  results  are  also  affected  by  the  market's
acceptance of the Company's and its customers' products and the level and timing
of orders  received.  The Company ships a  substantial  portion of its quarterly
sales in the last month of a quarter. If anticipated shipments in any quarter do
not occur, the Company's  operating  results for that quarter could be adversely
affected.  In addition,  a substantial  percentage of the Company's products are
incorporated   into   computer  and   computer-related   products,   which  have
historically been  characterized by significant  fluctuations in demand which in
turn have  affected  the  demand  for  components  used in these  computers.  In
addition,  demand for certain of the Company's products is dependent upon growth
in the communications market. A slowdown in the computer and related peripherals
or  communications  markets  could  adversely  affect  the  Company's  operating
results.  See "Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial  Condition and
Results of Operations."

     The  Company's  operating  results  will be  impacted  by a number of risks
associated with the Company's current and planned facilities expansion programs.
See "--Current Capacity Limitations and Risks Associated with Planned Expansion"
and "Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations."

CURRENT CAPACITY LIMITATIONS AND RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH PLANNED EXPANSION

     The Company is operating  its wafer  fabrication  facilities in Salinas and
San Jose and its  assembly  operations  in  Malaysia  near  installed  equipment
capacity.  As a result,  the Company has not been able to take  advantage of all
market opportunities presented to the Company. Due to long production lead times
and current  capacity  constraints,  any  failure by the  Company to  adequately
forecast the mix of product demand could  adversely  affect the Company's  sales
and operating  results.  For example,  the Company's  second quarter fiscal 1995
results were  relatively  flat  compared to its prior  quarter  results due to a
slowing in demand from networking customers and an inability to shift production
to other product areas where demand exceeded supply.

                                5




<PAGE>


     To address its capacity  requirements,  the Company is currently converting
its Salinas wafer fabrication facility from five-inch to six-inch wafers, adding
incremental  production equipment to its San Jose wafer fabrication facility and
building an additional  40,000 square foot test and assembly facility in Penang,
Malaysia. In addition,  the Company recently commenced construction of a 192,000
square foot facility  containing a 48,000 square foot, class 1, eight-inch wafer
fabrication line in Hillsboro, Oregon. Conversion of the Salinas facility, while
operating near installed equipment capacity,  constrains  production  scheduling
and could impact production output. In addition, delays in the delivery of wafer
fabrication  or test  equipment to the Company's  Salinas,  San Jose,  Penang or
Oregon  facilities  could delay planned  increases in the  Company's  production
capacity.  In connection with the  construction,  equipping and  commencement of
operations at the new Oregon facility, the Company faces a number of substantial
additional  risks including,  but not limited to, delays in  construction,  cost
overruns,  equipment  delays or shortages and  manufacturing  startup or process
problems.  In  addition,  the Company has never  operated  an  eight-inch  wafer
fabrication  facility and eight-inch  facilities  and  production  equipment are
relatively   new  to  the  industry.   Accordingly,   the  Company  could  incur
unanticipated process or production problems.

     The Company's capacity  additions will result in a significant  increase in
fixed and operating expenses.  If revenue levels do not increase sufficiently to
offset these additional expense levels, the Company's operating results could be
adversely  impacted in future  periods.  In this  regard,  IDT has  historically
expensed  as period  costs,  rather than  capitalized,  the  operating  expenses
associated  with  bringing a  fabrication  facility  to  commercial  production.
Although the Company does not expect to generate  significant  revenues from its
new Oregon fabrication  facility until fiscal 1997 at the earliest,  the Company
will recognize  substantial  operating expenses  associated with the facility in
fiscal 1996 and 1997.  In addition,  in fiscal  1997,  the Company will begin to
recognize  substantial  depreciation  expenses  before  production of commercial
volume is achieved.

     The extensive production expansion programs,  including, in particular, the
construction  of  the  new  facility  in  Oregon,  could  strain  the  Company's
management  and  engineering  resources.  This  strain  on  resources  could  be
exacerbated  by  the  geographic  distance  between  the  Company's  Oregon  and
California  facilities.  There can be no assurance that the Company will be able
to hire additional  management,  engineering and other personnel,  as needed, to
manage these  expansion  programs  effectively  and to implement new  production
capacity in a timely manner and within budget.

     The Company believes other  manufacturers are also expanding or planning to
expand their fabrication  capacity over the next several years.  There can be no
assurance  that  expansion by the Company and its  competitors  will not lead to
overcapacity  in the Company's  target  markets,  which could cause  declines in
product prices that would adversely affect the Company's operating results.

MANUFACTURING RISKS

     The Company's CMOS (Complementary  Metal Oxide Silicon) and BiCMOS (Bipolar
CMOS)  manufacturing  processes are highly complex,  require advanced and costly
equipment and are continuously being modified in an effort to improve yields and
product   performance.   Minute   impurities  or  other   difficulties   in  the
manufacturing  process can lower yields.  From time to time, IDT has experienced
production  difficulties  that have caused delivery delays and quality problems.
There can be no  assurance  that the Company will not  experience  manufacturing
problems and product  delivery  delays in the future as a result of, among other
things, changes to its process technologies,  ramping production, installing new
equipment  at its San  Jose  and  Salinas  facilities,  converting  its  Salinas
facility from five-inch to six-inch wafers and  constructing  its new facilities
in Penang and Oregon.  See "Current  Capacity  Limitations and Risks  Associated
with Planned  Expansion."  Further,  the Company's  existing  wafer  fabrication
facilities are located relatively near each other in northern California. If the
Company were unable to use these  facilities,  as a result of a natural disaster
or otherwise,  the Company's  operations would be materially  adversely affected
until  the  Company  were  able  to  obtain  other  production  capability.  See
"Business-Manufacturing."

                                6

INVENTORY VALUATION ISSUES

     In connection with the Company's fiscal 1993 audit, the Company's  auditors
identified a material  weakness in the Company's  internal controls with respect
to its  inventory  management  system as it relates to  determining  the cost of
inventory.  A material weakness  indicates that a material error or irregularity
may occur in the Company's  quarterly  financials and may not be timely detected
by the Company's  employees in the normal course of  performing  their  assigned
functions,  thereby  possibly  resulting  in a  misstatement  of  the  Company's
quarterly  financial  statements.  There were no  adjustments  to the  Company's
financial   statements  in  connection   with  the  fiscal  1993  audit  and  no
restatements  of any quarterly  periods in that year.  Beginning in fiscal 1994,
the Company implemented programs aimed at improving its inventory management and
costing  systems.  The Company's  auditors did not identify a material  weakness
with respect to these  systems in their audit for fiscal 1994,  but did indicate
to IDT that the  Company's  systems  continue to have  significant  limitations.
While the  Company  continues  to devote  resources  to the  improvement  of its
systems,  there can be no assurance that the Company will successfully implement
systems which will completely  resolve these issues.  Failure to devote adequate
resources to address  limitations  in the  Company's  inventory  management  and
costing  systems or to improve such systems  could result in a  misstatement  of
operating results. 

DEPENDENCE ON NEW PRODUCTS AND TECHNOLOGIES



     The market for the Company's products is characterized by significant price
competition, frequent new product introductions, rapidly changing technology and
evolving industry  standards.  Average selling prices of the Company's  products
have historically  declined over time and this trend is expected to continue. To
offset these decreases,  the Company relies on manufacturing cost reductions and
on timely introductions of new products that meet customers' needs. From time to
time the Company has experienced delays in product  introductions.  For example,
IDT's operating results were adversely  affected in fiscal 1991 due to the delay
in the  introduction  of a  higher-speed  256K SRAM and a 1 Meg SRAM.  To remain
competitive  the Company also must continue to devote  significant  resources to
advancing  process  technologies  to reduce  semiconductor  die  size,  increase
performance and improve  manufacturing  yields. IDT is currently  converting the
manufacture of several  products to its newer generation  process  technologies.
Often in the past, such conversions have temporarily  adversely affected yields.
In particular, as process geometries become smaller, implementation becomes more
difficult.  There can be no  assurance  that the Company will be able to develop
and  introduce  new products in a timely  manner,  that new  products  will gain
market  acceptance  or  that  new  process   technologies  can  be  successfully
implemented.  See "Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial  Condition
and Results of Operations" and "Business--Research and Development."

COMPETITION

     The Company  competes with a number of  manufacturers  in each of its major
product areas. Several of the Company's  competitors have substantially  greater
technical, marketing, manufacturing and financial resources than the Company. In
addition,  several of the Company's foreign  competitors receive assistance from
their respective governments,  which may give them a competitive advantage.  The
Company  competes  principally on the basis of technical  innovation and product
performance, as well as on quality, price and product availability.  The ability
of IDT to compete successfully  depends upon a number of factors,  including new
product  and  process  technology  introductions  by IDT  and  its  competitors,
customer  acceptance of the Company's  products,  cost effective  manufacturing,
assertion  of  intellectual  property  rights and  general  market and  economic
conditions.  Some of these factors are outside the Company's control.  There can
be no  assurance  that the Company will be able to compete  successfully  in the
future against existing or potential competitors or that the Company's operating
results  will not be  adversely  affected by increased  price  competition.  See
"Business--Competition."

CAPITAL NEEDS

     The  semiconductor  industry  is  extremely  capital  intensive.  To remain
competitive,  the Company must continue to invest in advanced  manufacturing and
test equipment. During the past three fiscal years,

                                7



<PAGE>



cash flow from  operations  has been  insufficient  to fund fully the  Company's
needs for capital equipment,  mandatory debt repayment and working capital.  The
Company  currently  plans to make  approximately  $60 to $70  million in capital
expenditures   during  the  second  half  of  fiscal  1995.  In  addition,   the
construction  and purchase of equipment for the  Company's new Oregon  facility,
together with ongoing capital expenditures, are expected to require $200 million
in fiscal 1996, with significant continuing expenditures in the following years.
While the Company  believes that the proceeds from this offering,  together with
existing  cash and cash  equivalents,  cash flow from  operations  and  existing
credit facilities, will be adequate to fund its anticipated capital expenditures
and working capital needs,  including  mandatory debt repayments  through fiscal
1996,  there can be no  assurance  that the Company will not be required to seek
other financing sooner or that such financing,  if required,  would be available
on terms  satisfactory to the Company.  In this regard,  any adverse effect upon
the  Company's  operating  results  due to a  significant  downturn  in industry
pricing or otherwise  could  accelerate  the Company's  need to seek  additional
outside  capital.  See  "Management's   Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial
Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources." 

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RISKS



     The Company has been notified  that it may be  infringing  patents or other
intellectual   property  rights  of  others.   The  semiconductor   industry  is
characterized by vigorous protection and pursuit of intellectual property rights
or  positions,  which have  resulted in  significant  and often  protracted  and
expensive  litigation.  During  fiscal  1993,  IDT  settled  outstanding  patent
litigation  with  both  AT&T  and  Texas  Instruments  and  obtained   five-year
cross-licenses from both parties. Costs associated with these litigation matters
adversely   affected   IDT's  results  of  operations   for  fiscal  1992.   See
"Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of Financial  Condition  and Results of
Operations"  and Notes 3 and 13 of Notes to Consolidated  Financial  Statements.
There can be no  assurance  that  additional  claims  alleging  infringement  of
intellectual property rights,  including  infringement of patents that have been
or may be  issued  in the  future,  will  not be  asserted  in the  future.  Any
assertions of intellectual  property claims could require IDT to discontinue the
use of certain  processes or cease the  manufacture,  use and sale of infringing
products,  to incur  significant  litigation  costs and damages,  and to develop
noninfringing  technology  or to  acquire  licenses  to  the  alleged  infringed
technology.  There can be no assurance  that the Company would be able to obtain
such licenses on acceptable terms or to develop  noninfringing  technology.  IDT
has received  patent  licenses from a number of companies.  The failure to renew
certain of these  licenses or  significant  increases in amounts  payable  under
these licenses could have an adverse effect on the Company.  In addition,  there
can be no  assurance  that  any  patents  issued  to  the  Company  will  not be
challenged,  invalidated or circumvented or that rights granted  thereunder will
provide competitive advantages to the Company.  Furthermore, the laws of certain
countries do not protect the Company's  intellectual property rights to the same
extent as do the laws of the United States. See "Business--Intellectual Property
and Licensing." 

CYCLICALITY OF SEMICONDUCTOR INDUSTRY



     The  semiconductor  industry  is highly  cyclical  and has been  subject to
significant   downturns  at  various  times  that  have  been  characterized  by
diminished product demand,  production  overcapacity and accelerated  erosion of
average selling prices. During fiscal 1992, the Company's operating results were
adversely affected by a general decline in demand for semiconductor products and
significant price  competition.  While  semiconductor  demand has been strong in
recent periods, and the Company's existing  manufacturing  equipment capacity is
operating near installed equipment capacity,  there can be no assurance that IDT
will not be  adversely  affected  in the future by  cyclical  conditions  in the
semiconductor industry.

MANAGEMENT OF GROWTH

     The  Company has  experienced,  and  expects to  experience  in the future,
growth  in the  number  of  employees,  the  scope  of its  operations  and  the
geographic area of its operations. This growth has resulted in new and increased
reponsibilities  for management  personnel and has placed added pressures on the
Company's  operating and financial systems. To manage future growth effectively,
the Company must hire

                                8



<PAGE>

additional management and technical personnel, integrate its new employees
into its overall operations and continue to improve its operational,
financial and management systems. If the Company is unable to manage growth
effectively or hire or retain qualified personnel, the Company's business and
results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. See
"Business--Employees."

DEPENDENCE ON THIRD PARTIES

     The Company's  manufacturing  operations depend upon obtaining adequate raw
materials  on a timely  basis.  The number of vendors of certain raw  materials,
such as silicon wafers,  ultra-pure  metals and certain  chemicals and gases, is
very limited.  In addition,  certain  packages used by the Company  require long
lead  times  and are  available  from only a few  suppliers.  From time to time,
vendors  have  extended  lead  times or  limited  supply to the  Company  due to
capacity  constraints.  The Company's  results of operations  would be adversely
affected if it were unable to obtain  adequate  supplies of raw  materials  in a
timely  manner  or if  there  were  significant  increases  in the  costs of raw
materials.  IDT has been dependent on the design  capabilities of Quantum Effect
Design,  Inc.  ("QED"),  a  majority-owned   subsidiary,   for  the  design  and
development  of derivatives  of MIPS RISC based  microprocessors,  including the
ORION R4600. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain
this design  relationship with QED or that QED will continue to be successful in
developing new microprocessors.  See  "Business--Manufacturing"  and "--Research
and Development." 

INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS



     Substantially  all of  the  Company's  test  operations  and a  significant
portion of its assembly  operations  are performed at IDT's  facility in Penang,
Malaysia.  IDT also uses  subcontractors  in Korea, the Philippines and Malaysia
for certain  assembly  operations.  The Company's  reliance on these  facilities
entails certain risks generally  associated with doing business abroad,  such as
foreign governmental  regulations,  currency fluctuations,  political unrest and
disruptions  or delays in  shipments.  The  Company's  operations  in Penang are
subject to other  specific  risks.  There is  currently a very low  unemployment
rate, and accordingly a limited pool of skilled workers, in Penang. There can be
no assurance that the Company will be able to hire sufficient  skilled personnel
as it expands its operations in Penang. In addition,  due to current limitations
on electrical  power  availability  in Penang,  certain large consumers of power
have been subject to brief shutdowns on a weekly basis. While the Company is not
a large  consumer of power and therefore has not been affected by such scheduled
shutdowns,  there can be no assurance  that,  as IDT's and other  manufacturers'
operations  in Penang  expand,  electrical  power  shortages  will not adversely
affect the Company's Malaysian operations. The Company's tax rate in fiscal 1996
will  increase as a result of the  expiration of the  Company's  exemption  from
Malaysian  income  taxes.  This will  contribute to an increase in the Company's
overall income tax rate in the future.  See Note 2 to the table under  "Selected
Consolidated  Financial  Data"  and Note 11 of Notes to  Consolidated  Financial
Statements. If the Company were unable to assemble or test products offshore, or
if air transportation to these foreign facilities were curtailed,  the Company's
operations could be materially adversely affected.

     A substantial  percentage of the Company's revenues are derived from export
sales.  In fiscal  1994 and the first six months of fiscal  1995,  export  sales
accounted for 32% and 38%, respectively, of IDT's revenues. See Note 12 of Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements.  Export sales are generally denominated in
local currencies. The Company's offshore assembly and test operations and export
sales  are  subject  to risks  associated  with  foreign  operations,  including
currency controls and fluctuations, changes in local economic conditions, import
and export controls,  as well as changes in tax laws, tariffs and freight rates.
The Company  attempts to hedge against a portion of its  short-term  exposure to
currency fluctuations. There can be no assurance that the above factors will not
adversely affect the Company's operations in the future or that the Company will
be successful in its hedging efforts.  See  "Business--Marketing  and Sales" and
"--Manufacturing" and Note 1 of Notes to  Consolidated  Financial  Statements.


                                9


<PAGE>
ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS



     The  Company is subject to a variety of foreign,  federal,  state and local
governmental  regulations  related  to the  discharge  and  disposal  of  toxic,
volatile or otherwise  hazardous  materials used in its  manufacturing  process.
While the Company believes that it has all  environmental  permits  necessary to
conduct its business and that its  activities  conform to present  environmental
regulations,  increasing  public attention has been focused on the environmental
impact of  semiconductor  operations.  Any failure by the Company to control the
use of, or to restrict  adequately the discharge of,  hazardous  materials under
present or future regulations could subject it to substantial liability or could
cause its manufacturing  operations to be suspended.  In addition,  IDT could be
held financially  responsible for remedial measures if its properties were found
to be  contaminated  whether  or  not  the  Company  was  responsible  for  such
contamination. 

VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE



     The Company's Common Stock has experienced substantial price volatility and
such volatility may occur in the future,  particularly as a result of quarter to
quarter variations in the actual or anticipated financial results of the Company
or other companies in the semiconductor industry or in the markets served by the
Company,  or  announcements  by the  Company or its  competitors  regarding  new
product  introductions.  In addition,  the stock market has experienced  extreme
price and  volume  fluctuations  that have  affected  the  market  price of many
technology companies' stocks in particular and that have often been unrelated or
disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies.  These factors
may adversely  affect the market price of the Common Stock.  See "Price Range of
Common Stock."

                               USE OF PROCEEDS

     Thenet  proceeds to the Company  from the sale of the  3,300,000  shares of
Common  Stock  offered  by  the  Company  are  estimated  to  be   approximately
$89,902,000   ($103,843,000  if  the  Underwriters'   over-allotment  option  is
exercised in full and the shares subject thereto are sold in the entirety by the
Company)  assuming  a public  offering  price of  $28.625  per  share  and after
deducting the estimated  underwriting  discount and offering expenses payable by
the Company.

   The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering for  construction
of a new wafer fabrication facility in Hillsboro,  Oregon, expansion of existing
wafer fabrication facilities in San Jose and Salinas, California, acquisition of
capital equipment and general corporate purposes, including working capital. The
Company believes that the proceeds of this offering, together with existing cash
and cash equivalents,  cash flow from operations and existing credit facilities,
will be  adequate  to fund its  anticipated  capital  expenditures  and  working
capital needs through fiscal 1996. See "Management's  Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources."
Pending their application, the proceeds will be invested in short-term, interest
bearing instruments.

   The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of
Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders. See "Selling Stockholders."

(1) In fiscal 1992, the Company recorded restructuring and other charges of
    $24.8 million. See Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
(2) As described in Note 11 of Notes to Consolidated  Financial Statements,  the
    Company's  Malaysian  subsidiary  was granted a tax holiday  which  extended
    through June 30, 1993.  Such status had the effect of reducing the Company's
    provision  for taxes by  approximately  $0.8  million,  $0.9  million,  $1.0
    million,  and $1.5 million,  or $0.03, $0.04, $0.04 and $0.05 per share, for
    the  years  ended  March  31,  1990,  1991,  1992  and  1993,  respectively.
    Management  believes it is likely that carryovers of  depreciation  from the
    tax holiday period along with expected  additional  depreciation grants will
    defer the time beyond  March 31,  1995 when the  Malaysian  subsidiary  will
    first begin to pay local taxes.  The  corporate  income tax rate in Malaysia
    which would  otherwise be applicable  for the  Company's  fiscal year ending
    April 2, 1995 and for subsequent periods is 34%.

       MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                            RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

     IDT  designs,   develops,   manufactures  and  markets  a  broad  range  of
high-performance  semiconductor  products  for the  workstation/server,  desktop
computer,  office automation and communications  markets. The Company's revenues
have  increased  from $203 million in fiscal 1992 to $236 million in fiscal 1993
and to $330  million in fiscal  1994.  This  growth  has been due to  increasing
market  acceptance of new products,  the expansion of production  output through
additions  of  capital  equipment  and  improved  manufacturing   processes  and
associated die shrinks and yield improvements and improvements in overall market
conditions.  In  particular,  the Company has  introduced  33 new  products in a
variety of  configurations  since the  beginning of fiscal 1994,  including  the
ORION 64-bit  microprocessor and the Company's family of 3.3 volt SRAMs.  During
these  periods,  the Company has achieved  unit volume  growth across all of its
market segments.

     The  Company's  gross profit and  operating  profit  margins have  improved
significantly from 43.5% and 3.5%, respectively,  in the first quarter of fiscal
1993 to 58.1% and 23.1%,  respectively,  in the second  quarter of fiscal  1995.
These  improvements have been attributable to economies of scale associated with
increased unit shipments,  higher utilization of manufacturing  capacity,  wafer
fabrication  process  improvements,  and a mix shift to higher margin  products,
including microprocessors.

     The Company is currently operating near installed  equipment  capacity.  To
address this situation,  the Company initiated a significant  capacity expansion
program,  including  conversion  of  the  Company's  Salinas  wafer  fabrication
facility from five-inch to six-inch  wafers,  the purchase of incremental  wafer
fabrication equipment for the Company's San Jose facility, expansion of assembly
and test facilities in Penang,  Malaysia,  and  construction of a new eight-inch
wafer fabrication  facility in Oregon.  These programs will require  substantial
capital  expenditures  in the balance of fiscal 1995, in fiscal 1996 and beyond.
See "Business--Manufacturing." The Company expects that the equipment conversion
in the Salinas  facility  will be completed  near the end of fiscal 1995 and the
addition of equipment to the San Jose  facility and the  expansion of the Penang
facility  will be  completed  in fiscal  1996.  It is  expected  that the Oregon
facility  will  commence  production  during  fiscal 1996;  however,  the Oregon
facility is not expected to achieve  significant  revenues  until fiscal 1997 at
the earliest and will not achieve commercial volume production until fiscal 1998
at the earliest.

     The increased  operating  expenses  associated with the Company's  capacity
expansion  programs will adversely  affect  operating  results until the Company
achieves volume production utilizing the new facilities and equipment.  Although
the Company does not expect to generate significant revenues from its new Oregon
fabrication  facility  until  fiscal  1997 at the  earliest,  the  Company  will
recognize  substantial operating expenses associated with the facility in fiscal
1996 and 1997.  In addition,  in fiscal 1997 the Company will begin to recognize
substantial  depreciation  expenses before  production in commercial  volumes is
achieved.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     Six months ended  September  30, 1993 and 1994.  Revenues for the first six
months of fiscal 1995 increased  24.5% to $190.6 million as compared to revenues
of $153.1  million for the first six months of fiscal  1994.  This  increase was
attributable  to higher unit volumes  across most product  families,  geographic
regions and sales  channels.  Significant  unit volume growth was experienced in
SRAM memories, particularly 3.3 volt devices, RISC based microprocessors,  logic
circuits and specialty memory  products.  The higher unit volumes were offset in
part by lower average unit selling prices on certain products due to competitive
pricing and the maturation of certain products.  In the second quarter of fiscal
1995, revenues were relatively flat compared to the first quarter of fiscal 1995
due to a slowing in demand from  networking  customers and an inability to shift
production to other product areas where demand exceeded supply.

     Gross  profit for the first six months of fiscal  1995  increased  49.1% to
$110.2 million, or 57.8% of revenues,  as compared to $73.9 million, or 48.3% of
revenues, for the comparable period of the prior year. The improvements in gross
profit  and  gross  margins  were  primarily  attributable  to  higher  capacity
utilization  and increased unit volumes.  In addition,  the Company  continued a
shift to more advanced designs and wafer fabrication processes which resulted in
increased die per wafer yields and therefore  lower unit costs.  More  efficient
test and burn-in  procedures  also  contributed  to improved  yields and reduced
manufacturing costs. In addition, selective acceptance of new orders as a result
of continued strong demand
                                       15                                    
<PAGE>

allowed the Company to shift manufacturing  capacity to higher-margin  products.
Due  primarily  to the Company  reaching a cap on certain  royalty  obligations,
gross profit also  benefited in the first six months of fiscal 1995  compared to
the first six months of fiscal  1994 from a $1 million  reduction  in patent and
royalty expenses relating to cross-license  agreements.  However,  the Company's
industry is characterized by patent claims and license agreements, and there can
be no assurance royalty expenses will not increase in the future.

     Research  and  development  ("R&D")  expenses  for the first six  months of
fiscal 1995 increased  14.0% to $35.5 million,  but decreased as a percentage of
revenues to 18.6% from 20.4% in the corresponding  period of the prior year. The
Company  continues  to invest in the  development  of new  products  and process
technologies.  In the first six months of fiscal 1995, the Company introduced 11
new products and continued to develop its 0.5 micron CMOS processes. The Company
expects that it will  continue to increase R&D spending in the future,  although
such expenses may vary as a percentage of revenues.

     Selling,  general and  administrative  ("SG&A") expenses increased 20.0% to
$30.4  million  for the first  six  months of fiscal  1995,  but  declined  as a
percentage of revenues to 15.9% from 16.5% in the comparable period of the prior
year. The increase in SG&A expenses was  attributable to higher costs associated
with the higher level of sales,  including  higher sales  commissions,  employee
profit sharing and management  bonuses,  although SG&A expenses did not increase
as rapidly as sales. The Company anticipates that SG&A expenses will continue to
increase, but may vary as a percentage of revenues.

     Interest expense for the first six months of fiscal 1995 decreased 33.3% to
$1.9 million.  The decrease was the result of lower debt  balances  coupled with
lower interest rates.  Interest income and other, net, increased to $2.7 million
for the six-month  period as compared to $0.8 million for the same period of the
prior year. The increase in interest income was  attributable  to  significantly
higher average cash balances, partially offset by lower interest rates.

     Income  taxes for the first six months of fiscal  1995 were  provided at an
effective  rate  of  25%.  This  compares  to an  effective  rate  of 20% in the
corresponding  period of fiscal 1994.  The increase in the effective tax rate in
fiscal 1995 as compared to fiscal 1994 is primarily due to higher utilization in
fiscal 1994 of certain  deferred tax  benefits.  The Company  believes  that its
effective  tax rate will  increase in the future as the tax  holiday  associated
with the Company's Malaysia facility expires and the Company will have exhausted
its deferred tax benefits.

     Fiscal  Years  1992,  1993 and  1994.  Revenues  increased  39.9% to $330.5
million in fiscal  1994,  as compared  to  revenues of $236.3  million in fiscal
1993, which in turn represented a 16.6% increase over revenues of $202.7 million
in fiscal 1992. Growth in fiscal 1994 was due to increased unit sales across all
product segments,  with the largest  percentage  increase in the  microprocessor
segment,  as well  as  favorable  pricing  during  the  fiscal  year on  certain
products,  offset in part by lower  selling  prices for some  products.  Revenue
growth in fiscal 1993 was  attributed to increases in product  shipments  across
all  market  segments,  offset  in part by price  reductions  on  several  major
products.  Toward the end of fiscal 1993,  pricing firmed in the memory business
segment, reversing a trend of steady price erosion over several years, which had
been driven in part by increased demand across all market segments.

     Gross profit  increased  64.3% to $170.8  million,  or 51.7% of revenues in
fiscal 1994 as compared to $104.0  million or 44.0% of revenues in fiscal  1993.
Gross  profit  increased  37.0% in fiscal  1993 from  $75.9  million or 37.4% of
revenues  in  fiscal  1992.  The   improvement  in  fiscal  1994  was  primarily
attributable  to greater  capacity  utilization,  which  lowered  average  wafer
manufacturing  costs,  significant  increases  in die  per  wafer  due to  wafer
fabrication  process  improvements,  and a mix  shift to  products  with  higher
average  selling prices,  particularly  microprocessors.  In fiscal 1992,  gross
profit was negatively impacted principally by write-offs of inventory, including
approximately $14.9 million of charges to operations in the second quarter,  and
underutilization of capital assets.

     Research and development expenses increased 20.2% to $64.2 million or 19.4%
of revenues in fiscal 1994, as compared to $53.5 million or 22.6% of revenues in
fiscal  1993.  In fiscal  1992,  R&D  expenses  were  $52.0  million or 25.7% of
revenues.  The  increases  in R&D  expenses  were  due  primarily  to  continued
investments by the Company in both process technology and new product design and
development. 

                                       16
<PAGE>

     Selling,  general  and  administrative  expenses  increased  37.5% to $54.3
million in fiscal 1994 or 16.5% of  revenues,  as  compared to $39.5  million or
16.7% of revenues in fiscal  1993.  In fiscal  1992,  SG&A  expenses  were $48.7
million or 24.0% of  revenues.  The fiscal 1994  increase was  primarily  due to
increases  in  management  bonuses,  employee  profit  sharing and the  variable
selling expenses associated with the revenue increase. Fiscal 1992 SG&A expenses
were significantly impacted by patent litigation expenses and an increase in the
provision for bad debt. Patent  litigation  expenses accrued in fiscal 1992 were
resolved in fiscal 1993 and, as a consequence,  the reversal of a portion of the
1992 accruals benefited fiscal 1993 results.

     IDT incurred  approximately $4.5 million of restructuring charges in fiscal
1992  associated  with the closing of its oldest  wafer  fabrication  line and a
reduction in workforce.

     Interest  expense  totaled $5.2  million in fiscal  1994,  compared to $5.9
million in fiscal 1993 and $7.0  million in fiscal  1992.  Interest  expense has
decreased  as IDT's  asset-secured  debt has  declined.  IDT  continues to incur
interest on a long-term obligation  associated with a patent cross-license which
did not exist in fiscal 1992 and was insignificant in fiscal 1993.

     Interest  income and other,  net,  increased to $3.1 million in fiscal 1994
compared  to $1.1  million  and $1.6  million  in  fiscal  years  1993 and 1992,
respectively.  Fiscal  1994 was  favorably  impacted  by  higher  cash  balances
available for investment, gains on the disposition of assets and royalty income.

     The Company  adopted  Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 109
(FAS 109) during fiscal 1993, retroactively to March 30, 1991. The effective tax
rates for fiscal 1994 and 1993 of 20% and 15%,  respectively,  differed from the
U.S.  statutory  rate of 34% primarily  due to earnings of foreign  subsidiaries
being  taxed  at  lower  rates,  as  well as the  utilization  of  research  and
development credits. In addition,  fiscal 1994 benefited from the realization of
certain  deferred tax benefits for which a valuation  allowance  was  previously
required.  The tax benefit for fiscal 1992  reflected the ability of the Company
to apply fiscal 1992 pretax losses against taxes paid for prior years

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company's financial condition improved during fiscal 1994 and the first
six months of fiscal 1995. Cash and cash equivalents and short-term  investments
increased  from $24.4 million at the end of fiscal 1993 to $121.8 million at the
end of fiscal 1994 and to $125.9 million at September 30, 1994.  Working capital
increased  from $51.4  million at March 31, 1993 to $143.2  million at March 31,
1994 and to $152.6 million as of September 30, 1994. These increases were due to
improved  profitability,  as well as a public  stock  offering  in  fiscal  1994
yielding net proceeds of approximately  $46.8 million. As of September 30, 1994,
the Company had $4.4 million  available under unsecured lines of credit,  all of
which are overseas. See Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

     During fiscal 1992,  1993 and 1994 and the first six months of fiscal 1995,
the Company  generated  $31.9 million,  $37.2 million,  $100.1 million and $51.5
million,  respectively,  of cash flow from operations. The largest single factor
influencing  cash  flow  from  operations  during  fiscal  1992 and 1993 was the
depreciation  resulting from the Company's San Jose wafer fabrication  facility.
The improved  operating results in fiscal 1993, 1994 and the first six months of
fiscal 1995 also had a  significant  impact on cash flow during  those  periods.
Cash flow during fiscal 1992 was affected  negatively by the operating  loss for
the year. The Company anticipates that significant  depreciation relating to the
San Jose facility will continue through at least fiscal 1996.

     During fiscal 1992, 1993 and 1994, and the first six months of fiscal 1995,
the Company's net cash used in investing  activities  was $16.1  million,  $28.8
million, $68.9 million and $45.0 million,  respectively, of which $25.7 million,
$28.2  million,  $38.1 million and $40.6  million,  respectively,  were used for
capital  equipment and property and plant  improvements.  During fiscal 1992 and
1993,  the Company's net cash used in financing  activities was $7.4 million and
$5.9 million,  respectively, due primarily to net repayments of $9.8 million and
$8.8 million,  respectively,  related primarily to capital equipment  financing.
For fiscal 1994,  financing  activities  provided net cash of $34.8 million as a
result of the Company's public  offering,  offset by net repayments of equipment
financing  of $20.5  million.  For the six months ended  September  30, 1994 the
Company used $7.2 million in net cash for  financing  activities,  including net
repayments of
                                       17

<PAGE>

$9.1  million.  See  Notes  4, 5, 6 and 7 of  Notes  to  Consolidated  Financial
Statements   for   information   regarding  the  Company's   various   financing
arrangements.  IDT  expects  capital  equipment  financing  to  be  reduced  and
borrowing and repayment  levels to decrease over the next few years as a portion
of the proceeds of this offering is used to purchase capital equipment.

     In view of current  and  anticipated  capacity  requirements,  the  Company
anticipates  capital  expenditures of $60 to $70 million for the last six months
of fiscal 1995 and  approximately  $200 million in fiscal 1996,  principally  in
connection  with its capacity  expansion  programs.  See "Risk  Factors--Current
Capacity Limitations and Risk Associated with Planned Expansion."

     The Company  believes that the proceeds from this  offering,  together with
existing  cash and cash  equivalents,  cash flow from  operations  and  existing
credit facilities, will be adequate to fund its anticipated capital expenditures
and working  capital  needs  through  fiscal  1996.  There can be no  assurance,
however, that the Company will not be required to seek other financing sooner or
that such financing, if required, will be available on terms satisfactory to the
Company.

BACKGROUND

     Virtually all electronic systems--whether in personal computers,  telephone
switches  or  automobiles--are  designed  around  microprocessors.   Memory  and
input/output  devices  surround  and  control  the  flow of data to and from the
microprocessor.   Continuing  improvements  in  the  speed  and  performance  of
microprocessors  have  facilitated  a trend  toward  making  electronic  systems
smaller,  faster, more powerful and more accessible to users.  However, in order
to  take  advantage  of  the  full   capabilities  of  the  new  generations  of
microprocessors, electronic systems require faster and higher performance memory
and logic devices.  In addition,  the decreasing size of electronic  systems has
led in many cases to the use of modules or subsystems that integrate a number of
semiconductor  components.  The foregoing  trends are driving the demand for the
Company's four product families.

  o    RISC  Microprocessors  and  Subsystems.  Microprocessors  manipulate  and
       control data in electronic  systems through a fixed set of  instructions.
       Some  microprocessor  architectures use complex instruction set computing
       ("CISC") while other  architectures focus on a reduced number, or subset,
       of instructions  ("RISC").  Substantially  all personal  computer systems
       today use CISC microprocessors based on the Intel x86 architecture.  RISC
       microprocessors,  however,  generally  operate at higher speeds than CISC
       microprocessors,  which  has  led to the  increasing  acceptance  of RISC
       microprocessors  in  workstations,  servers  and  other  high-performance
       computers  as well as in  embedded  controllers  for  printers,  copiers,
       facsimile machines and other electronic products.

  o    SRAM Components and Modules.  Today's  higher-performance  microcomputers
       that use advanced  microprocessors and more complex operating systems and
       applications  software require more memory,  including SRAM cache memory,
       DRAM  (Dynamic  Random Access  Memory) main memory and disk memory.  SRAM
       cache memory provides  intermediate  storage between fast microprocessors
       and  relatively  slow DRAM main  memory.  By serving  as an  intermediate
       high-speed  memory,  SRAM cache memory  significantly  increases  overall
       system  speed  and  performance.   Personal   computers  based  on  Intel
       microprocessor  architectures  through the 386 family  generally  did not
       utilize SRAM cache memory. The  high-performance  32-bit Intel 486 family
       of  microprocessors  and new  64-bit  microprocessors,  such as the Intel
       Pentium microprocessor and the PowerPC microprocessor, have some on-chip,
       or  internal,  SRAM cache  memory.  The  increased  speed of these  newer
       microprocessors,  however,  will continue to require additional  external
       SRAM cache memory for enhanced  performance.  The Company believes that a
       large  portion of Intel  486-based PCs require SRAM cache memory and that
       substantially  all Intel  Pentium-based  PCs will require such memory. In
       addition,  low voltage (3.3 volt) SRAM cache  memories  are  increasingly
       being used to reduce power consumption in desktop and laptop computers.

                                       19

  o    Specialty Memory Products. Complex electronic systems that have different
       data transfer rates within the system or use multiple microprocessors may
       utilize  specialty  memory  products,  such as FIFOs (First  In/First Out
       memory products) and multi-port memory devices,  to enhance  performance.
       For example,  communications  systems  increasingly  use specialty memory
       products to improve the  flexibility  and throughput of the systems.  The
       trend toward linking  computer users within an office or an enterprise so
       that they can share data and  peripherals  has led to the rapid growth of
       high-performance  local area  networks  ("LANs")  and wide area  networks
       ("WANs") and therefore the increased use of specialty memory products.


  o    Logic  Circuits.  The  increasing  speed,  complexity and reduced size of
       microprocessor-based   systems  often  require  the  use  of  high-speed,
       high-performance  logic devices to interconnect the various elements in a
       system.  While  many  general  logic  functions  are  increasingly  being
       integrated   through  the  use  of  programmable   logic  devices,   many
       specialized  logic  elements,  such as buffers,  clock drivers and memory
       drivers, continue to be implemented as discrete functions.


STRATEGY

     IDT's  strategy is to be a leading  supplier of products  that  improve the
performance  of  microprocessor-based   systems.  The  Company  seeks  to  offer
innovative products with superior cost/performance by utilizing its expertise in
memory design and process  technologies.  Key elements of the Company's strategy
are:

  o    Develop High Performance  Solutions for Growing Markets.  IDT focuses its
       development  efforts  on  providing  proprietary  products  and  enhanced
       industry-standard  products  for  use  in  applications  in  the  growing
       workstation/server,    desktop    computer,    office    automation   and
       communications  markets.  Since the beginning of fiscal 1994, the Company
       has introduced 33 new products in a variety of configurations to meet the
       needs of these  markets.  The  Company  believes  that  its  emphasis  on
       high-performance,  innovative  products  has  resulted in its  becoming a
       market leader in SRAMs,  SRAM cache  modules,  FIFOs,  multi-port  memory
       products and high-speed CMOS logic circuits.

  o    Leverage  Expertise in SRAM and Subsystem Design.  IDT uses the extensive
       experience it has gained in the design of SRAMs and subsystems  since its
       founding  in 1980 to develop  new memory  products  that  provide  higher
       value-added  solutions to IDT's  customers.  The Company is  increasingly
       integrating  components  from its various  product  families  into single
       devices or modules that provide  increased  functionality and can in turn
       be more easily integrated into its customers' systems.  For example,  IDT
       offers cache memory modules that include cache controller, cache tag SRAM
       and cache SRAM  components for personal  computer  applications,  and the
       SARAM  device  that  incorporates  both  logic and memory  functions  for
       enhanced functionality in network applications.

  o    Maintain  Process  Technology  Leadership.  The Company is  committed  to
       continuously  improving its CMOS process technologies in order to improve
       product  performance and lower product costs through improved yields. The
       Company  invests a  substantial  portion of its research and  development
       expenditures in order to advance its process  technologies.  The majority
       of IDT's current products are manufactured  using its 0.65 micron process
       technologies   and  a  0.5  micron  CMOS  process   technology  is  under
       development. IDT believes that its advanced process technology capability
       allows it to design and manufacture  state-of-the-art  products,  thereby
       providing it with a competitive advantage.

  o    Control and Expand Production  Capability.  IDT believes that maintaining
       its own wafer fabrication  capability  facilitates the  implementation of
       advanced process technologies and new higher-performance product designs,
       provides it with a reliable source of supply of semiconductors and allows
       it to be more  flexible  in  shifting  production  according  to  product
       demand. In addition,  the Company has a greater ability to lower costs at
       production  volumes  by  matching   manufacturing  flow  to  the  process
       technology  being used. The Company has undertaken a significant  program
       to invest in new capital  equipment  and  facilities in order to increase
       and improve its capacity,  including the  construction  of the new Oregon
       facility. Through operating its own test facilities, the Company believes
       it is able to maintain quality while controlling costs.

PRODUCTS AND MARKETS



     IDT offers over 5,000 product configurations in four product families: SRAM
components and modules,  specialty  memory  products,  logic circuits,  and RISC
microprocessors  and  subsystems.  During fiscal 1994,  these  product  families
accounted  for 33%,  29%,  21% and 17%,  respectively,  of total  revenues.  The
Company  markets  its  products  primarily  to OEMs  in the  workstation/server,
desktop computer,  office automation and communications  markets.  IDT's product
design efforts are focused on developing  proprietary components and integrating
its components into single  devices,  modules or subsystems to meet the needs of
customers. 

     SRAMs.  SRAMs are memory  circuits  used for storage and  retrieval of data
during  a  computer  system's   operation.   SRAMs  do  not  require  electrical
refreshment of the memory  contents to ensure data  integrity,  allowing them to
operate at high speeds.  SRAMs include  substantially more circuitry than DRAMs,
resulting in higher production costs for a given amount of memory, and generally
command higher  selling prices than the equivalent  density DRAM. The market for
SRAMs is fragmented by differing demands for speed, power, density, organization
and packaging. As a result, there are a number of niche markets for SRAMs.



     The Company's SRAM product strategy is to offer high-performance 5 volt and
3.3 volt SRAM components and modules that have differentiated features optimized
to work  with  specified  microprocessors,  such as the  Intel  486 and  Pentium
families of microprocessors and the PowerPC microprocessor,  as well as the MIPS
RISC  microprocessors.  The  Company is focused  primarily  on the cache  memory
segment of the SRAM  market.  Cache  memory  provides  an  intermediate  storage
solution  between fast  microprocessors  and  relatively  slow DRAM main memory.
Cache  memory  operates at the speed of the  microprocessor  and  increases  the
microprocessor's  efficiency by  temporarily  storing the most  frequently  used
instructions and data.  Special cache tag SRAMs provide a look-up table function
that tells the cache controller which blocks of data are currently stored in the
cache SRAMs.

     IDT is a leading  supplier of cache SRAM components and modules to personal
computer  manufacturers.  The Company  offers a range of cache SRAMs,  including
burst-mode cache SRAMs that support the Intel and PowerPC  microprocessors,  and
cache tag SRAMs . The Company's cache SRAM components are often  integrated into
cache memory modules. These modules include the cache controller, cache tag SRAM
and cache  SRAM  components  and are ready to plug into  sockets  on a  computer
system's  motherboard.  IDT offers a series of standard  and custom cache memory
modules for IBM and IBM-compatible  PCs and PowerPC-based  personal computers as
well as for certain RISC microprocessor-based systems.

     The Company  continues to develop its next generation SRAM products to meet
the growing cache memory needs of increasingly faster microprocessors. IDT's new
products  are being  designed to operate at higher  speeds and  provide  greater
levels of integration. 

     In order to  provide  SRAM  products  that  meet the  varying  needs of its
customers,  IDT uses both CMOS and BiCMOS process  technologies  and offers 16K,
64K,  256K and 1 Meg  density  SRAMs in a number of speed,  power and  packaging
configurations.

     Specialty  Memory  Products.  The Company's  proprietary  specialty  memory
products   include   FIFOs   and   multi-port   memory   products   that   offer
high-performance  features which allow  communications  and computer  systems to
operate  more  effectively.  FIFOs are used as rate  buffers to  transfer  large
amounts of data at high speeds between  separate  devices or pieces of equipment
operating at different  speeds within a system.  Multi-port  memory products are
used  to  speed  data   transfers   and  act  as  the  link   between   multiple
microprocessors or between microprocessors and peripherals when the order of the
data to be transferred needs to be controlled. These products are currently used
primarily in  peripheral  interface,  communications  and  networking  products,
including hubs, bridges and routers.

                                       21
<PAGE>

     IDT is a leading supplier of both  synchronous and  asynchronous  FIFOs and
has  increasingly  focused its  resources  on the design of  synchronous  FIFOs.
Synchronous FIFOs have been gaining greater market  acceptance  because they are
faster and provide an easier user interface. IDT's family of 9-bit SyncFIFOs are
being used in many of the newer networking products.

     The Company is the leading supplier of multi-port  memory  products.  IDT's
family  of  multi-port  memory  products  is  composed  primarily  of  dual-port
asynchronous  devices. The Company also offers four-port products, a synchronous
dual-port  device  and a  new  device,  known  as a  SARAM,  that  combines  the
flexibility  of a multi-port  product with the ease of a FIFO. In addition,  the
Company is  developing  a family of specialty  memory  products for the emerging
asynchronous  transfer mode ("ATM") market. The first members of this ATM family
will be a highly integrated, low cost interface device for ATM network cards and
two  transceiver  chip sets providing  low-cost  physical media interface to ATM
networks.

     Logic Circuits.  IDT is a leading  manufacturer of high-speed byte-wide and
double-density  16-bit CMOS logic  circuits for  high-performance  applications.
Logic circuits control data communication between various elements of electronic
systems,  such as between a  microprocessor  and a memory circuit.  IDT offers a
wide  range  of  logic  circuit  products,   which  support  bus  and  backplane
interfaces,  memory  interfaces  and  other  logic  support  applications  where
high-speed,  low power and high-output drive are critical.  IDT's logic circuits
are used in a broad range of markets.

     IDT's  16-bit  family of logic  products is  available  in small  packages,
enabling board area to be reduced,  and has gained increasing market acceptance.
These products are designed for new  applications in which small size, low power
and extra low noise are as important as high speeds.  IDT also supplies a series
of 8-bit and 16-bit 3.3 volt logic products and a 3.3 volt to 5 volt  translator
circuit  directed  at the  growing  requirements  for 3.3  volt  systems  in the
notebook and laptop computer and other markets. The Company also offers a family
of clock  drivers  and clock  generators.  These  devices,  placed  at  critical
positions in a system, correct the degradation of timing that occurs the further
the impulses travel from the main system clock.

     RISC   Microprocessor   Components  and  Subsystems.   IDT  is  a  licensed
manufacturer  of  MIPS  RISC   microprocessors.   IDT  now   manufactures   MIPS
architecture  32-bit  and 64-bit  standard  microprocessors  and IDT  derivative
products  for the  office  automation,  communications,  server/workstation  and
desktop computer markets.

     The Company focuses its RISC  microprocessor  design and marketing  efforts
primarily  on  the  embedded   controller  market.   Embedded   controllers  are
microprocessors  that  control  a single  device  such as a  printer,  copier or
network router. The Company sells several proprietary 32-bit derivative products
for the embedded controller market, including devices with on-circuit SRAM cache
memory and floating point functions.

     In 1993, the Company  introduced its ORION R4600  microprocessor,  which is
capable  of clock  speeds of up to 150 MHz.  The R4600 is a higher  performance,
lower cost  version of the 64-bit R4000 and R4400  microprocessors  developed by
MIPS Computer Systems,  which was acquired by Silicon Graphics in 1992 ("MIPS"),
and  introduced  by the  Company  and  other  MIPS  licensees  in 1992 and 1993,
respectively.  The R4600 was  developed  for the  Company  and to the  Company's
specifications  by  Quantum  Effect  Design,   Inc.   ("QED"),   a  consolidated
subsidiary. Systems based on the ORION family of microprocessors are targeted at
applications  that require high speed  computing and complex  graphics,  such as
scientific research, engineering design and advanced visual computing.

     The  Company  also  manufactures  RISC  subsystems,  which are board  level
products that contain MIPS RISC architecture microprocessors, cache SRAMs, logic
circuits and supporting software. These products are used in development systems
for the evaluation  and design of hardware and software or are  integrated  into
customers' end-user systems, thereby reducing design cycle time. 

CUSTOMERS

     The  Company  markets  and  sells  its  products  primarily  to OEMs in the
workstation/server,  desktop  computer,  office  automation  and  communications
markets.  Customers often purchase  products from more than one of the Company's
product families.

MARKETING AND SALES

     IDT markets and sells its  products  primarily to OEMs through a variety of
channels,  including a direct sales force,  distributors  and independent  sales
representatives.

     The Company had 58 direct sales personnel in the United States at September
30, 1994. They are located at the Company's headquarters and in 17 sales offices
in Alabama, California,  Colorado, Florida, Illinois,  Maryland,  Massachusetts,
Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Oregon and Texas, and are primarily responsible
for  marketing  and  sales in those  areas.  IDT also  utilizes  three  national
distributors,  Hamilton Hallmark, Future Electronics and Wyle Laboratories,  and
several regional distributors in the United States.  Hamilton Hallmark accounted
for 15% and 14% of the  Company's  revenues  in  fiscal  1994 and the  first six
months of fiscal 1995,  respectively.  In addition,  IDT uses independent  sales
representatives,  which  generally  take  orders  on an agency  basis  while the
Company ships directly to the customer. The representatives  receive commissions
on all products shipped to customers in their geographic area.

     The Company had 41 direct sales  personnel and eight sales offices  located
outside of the United States at September  30, 1994.  Sales  activities  outside
North America are generally  controlled by IDT's subsidiaries located in France,
Germany,  Hong Kong, Italy, Japan,  Sweden,  Taiwan and the United Kingdom.  The
Company has recently  increased its direct  marketing  efforts to OEMs in Europe
and to United States  companies with  operations in the  Asia/Pacific  area. The
majority of export sales,  however,  continues to be made through  international
distributors,  which tend not to carry inventory or carry significantly  smaller
levels compared to domestic distributors. During fiscal 1992, 1993, 1994 and the
first six months of fiscal 1995,  export sales  accounted  for 30%, 36%, 32% and
38% of total revenues. Sales outside the United States are generally denominated
in local  currencies.  Export  sales are  subject  to certain  risks,  including
currency controls and fluctuations, changes in local economic conditions, import
and export controls, and changes in tax laws, tariffs and freight rates.

     The  Company's  distributors  typically  maintain  an  inventory  of a wide
variety of products,  including products offered by IDT's competitors, and often
handle small or rush orders.  Pursuant to distribution  agreements,  the Company
grants distributors the right to return slow-moving  products for credit against
other  products and offers  protection  to the  distributors  against  inventory
obsolescence or price reductions.  Revenue  recognition of sales to distributors
is deferred until the products are resold by the distributor.


MANUFACTURING

     IDT  believes  that  maintaining  its  own  wafer  fabrication   capability
facilitates  the  implementation  of  advanced  process   technologies  and  new
higher-performance product designs, provides it with a reliable source of supply
of  semiconductors  and allows it to be more  flexible  in  shifting  production
according to product demand.  The Company operates  sub-micron wafer fabrication
facilities  in San Jose and Salinas,  California.  The Salinas  facility,  first
placed in production in fiscal 1986, includes a 24,000 square foot, class 

                                       23

<PAGE>


3 fabrication  line.  The Company is converting  this facility from five-inch to
six-inch  wafers.  The San Jose facility  includes a 24,000 square foot, class 1
(less than one particle 0.5 micron or greater in size per cubic foot),  six-inch
wafer  fabrication  line that was first placed in production in March 1991.  IDT
also  operates a 100,000  square foot  component  assembly and test  facility in
Penang,  Malaysia.  Substantially  all of the Company's  test  operations  and a
significant  portion of its assembly  operations  are performed at its Malaysian
facility.  IDT also uses  subcontractors,  principally in Korea, the Philippines
and Malaysia,  to perform  certain  assembly  operations.  If IDT were unable to
assemble or test products offshore,  or if air transportation to these locations
were curtailed, the Company's operations could be materially adversely affected.
Additionally,  foreign  manufacturing  exposes  IDT to certain  risks  generally
associated  with  doing  business   abroad,   including   foreign   governmental
regulations,  currency  controls  and  fluctuation,  changes  in local  economic
conditions and changes in tax rates,  tariffs and freight rates.  In addition to
this  offshore  assembly and test  capability,  the Company has the capacity for
low-volume,  quick-turn  assembly  in  Santa  Clara  as  well  as  limited  test
capability  in Santa Clara,  San Jose and  Salinas.  Assembly and test of memory
modules and RISC subsystems takes place in both San Jose and Santa Clara.

     The Company is operating  its wafer  fabrication  facilities in Salinas and
San Jose and its  assembly  operations  in  Malaysia  near  installed  equipment
capacity.  To address  its  capacity  requirements,  the  Company  is  currently
converting  its Salinas wafer  fabrication  facility from  five-inch to six-inch
wafers,  adding  incremental  production  equipment to its San Jose facility and
building an additional  40,000 square foot test and assembly facility in Penang,
Malaysia. In addition,  the Company recently commenced construction of a 192,000
square foot facility  containing a 48,000 square foot, class 1, eight-inch wafer
fabrication   line  in  Hillsboro,   Oregon.   The  Company  also  believes  the
construction  of a facility in Oregon  reduces the  Company's  risk of a natural
disaster  affecting all of its wafer fabrication  facilities which are currently
located in northern California.  The Company faces a number of risks in order to
accomplish  its goals to  increase  production  in its  existing  plants  and to
construct,  equip and commence operations of its new Oregon facility.  See "Risk
Factors--Current   Capacity   Limitations  and  Risks  Associated  with  Planned
Expansion" and "Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations."

     The  Company  utilizes  proprietary  CMOS and BiCMOS  process  technologies
permitting  sub-micron  geometries.  BiCMOS is a combination of bipolar and CMOS
technologies and is used for applications  requiring higher speeds. The majority
of IDT's current  products are  manufactured  using its proprietary  0.65 micron
process  technologies and the Company is currently developing 0.5 micron process
technologies. 

     Wafer fabrication involves a highly sophisticated,  complex process that is
extremely sensitive to contamination. Integrated circuit manufacturing costs are
primarily  determined  by circuit  size  because the yield of good  circuits per
wafer generally  increases as a function of smaller die. Other factors affecting
costs include wafer size, number of process steps,  costs and  sophistication of
manufacturing  equipment,  packaging type,  process  complexity and cleanliness.
IDT's  manufacturing  process is complex,  involving a number of steps including
wafer  fabrication,  plastic or ceramic  packaging,  burn-in and final test. The
Company  continuously makes changes to its manufacturing  process to lower costs
and improve yields. From time to time the Company has experienced  manufacturing
problems that have caused delays in shipments or increased  costs.  There can be
no assurance that IDT will not experience manufacturing problems in the future.

     The Company  generally has been able to arrange for multiple sources of raw
materials,  but  the  number  of  vendors  capable  of  delivering  certain  raw
materials,  such as silicon wafers,  ultra-pure metals and certain chemicals and
gases is very limited.  Some of the Company's  packages,  while not unique, have
very long lead times and are available from only a few suppliers.  While IDT has
not  experienced  any  difficulties  recently,  from time to time  vendors  have
extended  lead  times  or  limited   supply  to  the  Company  due  to  capacity
constraints.  These  circumstances could reoccur and could adversely affect IDT.


BACKLOG

     IDT  manufactures  and  markets  primarily  standard  products.  Sales  are
generally  made  pursuant  to standard  purchase  orders,  which are  frequently
revised during the agreement term to reflect changes in

                                       24


<PAGE>


the customer's  requirements.  The Company has also entered into master purchase
agreements  with several of its OEM customers.  These  agreements do not require
the OEMs to purchase  minimum  quantities  of the  Company's  products.  Product
deliveries are scheduled upon the Company's receipt of purchase orders under the
related OEM agreements. Generally, these purchase orders and OEM agreements also
allow customers to reschedule  delivery dates and cancel purchase orders without
significant penalties. Orders are frequently rescheduled,  revised or cancelled.
In addition,  distributor orders are subject to price adjustments both prior to,
and  occasionally  after,  shipment.  For these  reasons,  IDT believes that its
backlog, while useful for scheduling  production,  is not necessarily a reliable
indicator of future revenues.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

     IDT's competitive position has been established, to a large extent, through
its  emphasis  on  the  development  of  proprietary  and  enhanced  performance
industry-standard  products,  and the  development  of advanced  CMOS and BiCMOS
process  technologies.  IDT believes that its focus on continually advancing its
process  technologies  has allowed the Company to achieve cost reductions in the
manufacture of most of its products.  The Company believes that a continued high
level of  research  and  development  expenditures  is  necessary  to retain its
competitive position.  Research and development  expenditures as a percentage of
revenues were 26%, 23%, 19% and 19% in fiscal 1992,  1993 and 1994 and the first
six months of fiscal 1995, respectively.

     The Company's product  development  activities are focused on the design of
new  circuits  and  modules  that  provide  enhanced   performance  for  growing
applications.  In the SRAM family, IDT is utilizing its 5 volt and 3.3 volt SRAM
and  subsystem  design  expertise to develop  advanced  SRAM cache  memories and
modules for  microcomputer  systems based on Intel's 486 and Pentium families of
microprocessors  and  the  PowerPC   microprocessors,   as  well  as  MIPS  RISC
microprocessors.  IDT's  efforts  in the  specialty  memory  products  area  are
concentrated  on the  development  for the  communications  market  of  advanced
synchronous FIFOs and more sophisticated multi-port memory products. The Company
is also  developing a family of specialty  memory  products for the emerging ATM
market,  and a family  of  lower  voltage  logic  devices  for a broad  range of
applications.  In the RISC component and subsystems  product family, the Company
is designing  products for embedded control  applications,  such as printers and
telecommunications  switches.  The Company also continues to refine its CMOS and
BiCMOS  process  technologies  to increase  the speed and density of circuits in
order to provide  customers with advanced products at competitive  prices,  thus
enhancing their  competitive  positions.  The Company is currently  refining its
CMOS process  technology to achieve  half-micron  geometries  and converting the
production of many products,  particularly 3.3 volt devices, to newer generation
process technologies.

     In fiscal 1992,  the Company  purchased an equity  interest in QED, a newly
formed  corporation.  Pursuant to a  development  agreement  between QED and the
Company,  QED  developed  the ORION R4600  microprocessor  for IDT.  The Company
recently  announced two new ORION derivative  products being designed for IDT by
QED, the R4700  microprocessor  targeted to desktop systems running WindowsNT or
UNIX  operating  systems,  and the R4650  microprocessor  targeted  to  embedded
applications.  The  Company  owns  such  products,  subject  to the  payment  of
royalties and other fees to QED. IDT has licensed Toshiba and NKK to manufacture
and market  certain of these  products.  There can be no assurance that QED will
continue to design  products for the Company or be successful in developing such
products. 

COMPETITION

     The semiconductor industry is intensely competitive and is characterized by
rapid technological advances,  cyclical market patterns, price erosion, evolving
industry standards, occasional shortages of materials and high capital equipment
costs. Many of the Company's  competitors have substantially  greater technical,
marketing,  manufacturing and financial resources than IDT. In addition, several
foreign  competitors  receive  assistance from their  governments in the form of
research and development loans and grants and reduced capital costs, which could
give them a competitive  advantage.  The Company  competes in different  product

     IDT's  competitive  strategy  is  to  differentiate  its  products  through
high-performance, innovative configurations and proprietary features or to offer
industry-standard  products with higher  speeds and/or lower power  consumption.
There can be no assurance that price competition,  introductions of new products
by  IDT's  competitors,   delays  in  product  introductions  by  IDT  or  other
competitive  factors will not have a material  adverse  effect on the Company in
the future. 

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND LICENSING

     IDT has obtained 44 patents in the United States and several abroad and has
numerous  inventions in various stages of the patent  application  process.  The
Company  intends to continue to increase the scope of its patents.  There can be
no  assurance  that any patents  issued to the Company  will not be  challenged,
invalidated or circumvented,  or that the rights granted thereunder will provide
competitive  advantages to the Company. The Company also relies on trade secret,
copyright  and  trademark  laws to  protect  its  products,  and a number of the
Company's  circuit  designs are registered  pursuant to the  Semiconductor  Chip
Protection  Act  of  1984.  This  Act  gives  protection  similar  to  copyright
protection  for the patterns  which appear on integrated  circuits and prohibits
competitors from making photographic copies of such circuits.

     In recent  years,  there has been a growing trend of companies to resort to
litigation to protect their  semiconductor  technology from  unauthorized use by
others. IDT has been notified that it may be infringing patents issued to others
and in the past has been involved in patent litigation, which adversely affected
its operating  results.  There can be no assurance that additional  intellectual
property claims will not be made against the Company in the future.  The Company
believes that licenses, to the extent required,  will be available in connection
with intellectual  property claims. No assurance can be given, however, that the
Company  will be able to  obtain  such a license  on  acceptable  terms.  Should
licenses from any such claimant be  unavailable,  the Company may be required to
discontinue  its use of certain  processes or the  manufacture,  use and sale of
certain of its products or to develop noninfringing technology. If IDT is unable
to obtain any necessary licenses,  pass any increased cost of patent licenses on
to its  customers  or develop  noninfringing  technology,  the Company  could be
materially  adversely  affected.  In addition,  IDT has received patent licenses
from several  companies,  and the failure to renew certain of these  licenses as
they expire or  significant  increases in amounts  payable under these  licenses
could have an adverse effect on the Company.

     On January  16,  1988,  IDT entered  into a  manufacturing,  marketing  and
purchase  agreement  with MIPS that  allows  IDT to  manufacture  and market the
complete MIPS family of RISC  microprocessors and related software and to modify
the MIPS microprocessors to create subsets and supersets.

     On May 1, 1992, IDT and AT&T entered into a five-year  royalty-free  patent
cross-license agreement. As part of this agreement, patent litigation instituted
by AT&T was  settled and  dismissed.  Under the  agreement,  IDT made a lump sum
payment  and issued  shares of its Common  Stock to AT&T,  granted a discount on
future  purchases,  and gave  credit for future  purchases  of  technology  on a
nonexclusive basis.

     On December  10,  1992,  IDT and Texas  Instruments  ("TI")  entered into a
five-year  patent cross- license  agreement.  As part of this agreement,  patent
litigation instituted by TI was dismissed.  Under the agreement,  IDT granted to
TI a license to certain IDT  technology  and products and  guaranteed TI that it
will realize  certain  revenues from the technology  and products,  and IDT will
develop certain products which will be manufactured and sold by both IDT and TI.
See Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. 

EMPLOYEES

     At September  30, 1994,  IDT and its  subsidiaries  employed  approximately
2,750 people worldwide,  of whom approximately 980 were in Penang. IDT's success
depends in part on its ability to attract and retain  qualified  personnel,  who
are generally in great demand.  Since its founding,  the Company has implemented
policies  enabling its employees to share in IDT's  success.  Examples are stock
option,  stock  purchase,  profit  sharing  and  special  bonus  plans  for  key
contributors. IDT has never had a work stoppage, no employees are represented by
a  collective  bargaining  agreement,  and the Company  considers  its  employee
relations to be good.

$653,000 from Mr. Berg. IDT leases its Salinas and Santa Clara  facilities under
leases expiring in 1999 through 2005. The lease for the Salinas facility has two
five-year  renewal  options.  The  Company  owns  its  Malaysian  and  San  Jose
facilities,  although  the  Malaysian  facility is subject to  long-term  ground
leases and the San Jose  facility is subject to a mortgage.  IDT leases  offices
for its sales  force in 17  domestic  locations  as well as Hong  Kong,  London,
Milan,  Munich,  Paris,  Stockholm,  Taipei  and  Tokyo.  See Note 7 of Notes to
Consolidated  Financial Statements for information  concerning IDT's obligations
under operating and capital leases. The Company is building an additional 40,000
square foot  facility in Malaysia in order to add  additional  assembly and test
capacity.  This  expansion is planned to be completed in early fiscal 1996.  The
Company has  purchased a 23 acre parcel in  Hillsboro,  Oregon and has commenced
construction of a 192,000 square foot facility  containing a 48,000 square foot,
class 1,  eight-inch  wafer  fabrication  line,  which the  Company  plans to be
operational in fiscal 1997. See "Risk Factors--Current  Capacity Limitations and
Risks Associated With Planned Expansion."

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


   Basis of Presentation.  The  consolidated  financial  statements  include the
accounts of Integrated Device Technology, Inc. (IDT or "the Company") and all of
its subsidiaries.  All significant  intercompany  accounts and transactions have
been eliminated.


   Fiscal Year.  The Company's  fiscal year ends on the Sunday nearest March 31.
Fiscal years 1993,  1992 and 1991 each included 52 weeks.  The fiscal year ended
on April 3, 1994 was a 53-week  year.  The  fiscal  year-end  of  certain of the
Company's foreign  subsidiaries is March 31, and the results of their operations
as of their fiscal year end have been  combined  with the  Company's  results of
operations as of April 3, 1994.  Transactions during the intervening period were
not significant.

   Cash,  Cash  Equivalents  and Short-term  Investments.  Cash  equivalents are
highly liquid  investments  with original  maturities of three months or less at
the  time of  acquisition  or with  guaranteed  on-demand  buy-back  provisions.
Short-term  investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates  market
and consist  primarily of time deposits,  corporate notes and  treasuries.  Cash
equivalents and short-term investments included certificates of deposit totaling
$9,349,000 and $10,603,000 at March 28, 1993 and April 3, 1994, respectively.

   The Company adopted  Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards (FAS) 115,
"Accounting  for Certain  Investments in Debt and Equity  Securities"  effective
April  4,  1994  as  required  by that  pronouncement.  The  Statement  requires
reporting of  investments  as either held to maturity,  trading or available for
sale. The Company's investments are classified as available for sale. The effect
of adoption was not material.

   Inventory.  Inventory  is  stated  at  the  lower  of  standard  cost  (which
approximates  actual cost on a first-in,  first-out basis) or market.  Market is
based upon estimated realizable value reduced by normal gross margin.  Inventory
at March 28, 1993, April 3, 1994 and October 2, 1994 was:


                                                                     OCTOBER 2,

   Property,  Plant and Equipment.  Property,  plant and equipment are stated at
cost.  Depreciation  is computed for  property,  plant and  equipment  using the
straight-line  method  over  estimated  useful  lives of the  assets.  Leasehold
improvements  and  leasehold  interests  are  amortized  over the shorter of the
estimated  useful  lives  of the  assets  or the  remaining  term of the  lease.
Accelerated  methods of depreciation  are used for tax  computations.  Property,

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


   Income Taxes. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(FAS) 109,  "Accounting for Income Taxes," in fiscal 1993, electing to apply the
provisions  of FAS 109  retroactively  to the  beginning  of  fiscal  1992.  The
adoption of FAS 109 changed the Company's  method of accounting for income taxes
from the  deferred  method to an asset  and  liability  approach.  The asset and
liability  approach  requires  that the  expected  future  tax  consequences  of
temporary  differences  between book and tax bases of assets and  liabilities be
recognized as deferred tax assets and liabilities.


   Net Income (Loss) Per Share.  Net income  (loss) per share is computed  using
the weighted  average  number of shares of common stock  outstanding  during the
year, plus  incremental  common  equivalent  shares,  if dilutive.  Common stock
equivalents consist of stock options (using the treasury stock method).


   Revenue Recognition.  Revenue from product sales is generally recognized upon
shipment  and a reserve is  provided  for  estimated  returns and  discounts.  A
portion of the Company's sales is made to distributors  under  agreements  which
allow certain  rights of return and price  protection on products  unsold by the
distributors; such sales and profits thereon are deferred until the products are
resold by the distributors.

   Reclassifications.  Certain  amounts  in  prior  fiscal  years'  consolidated
financial  statements  and notes have been  reclassified  to conform with fiscal
1994 presentation.

   Translation of Foreign Currencies. Accounts denominated in foreign currencies
have been  translated  in  accordance  with  Statement of  Financial  Accounting
Standard (FAS) 52. The functional currency for the Company's sales operations is
the  applicable  local  currency  with  the  exception  of the Hong  Kong  sales
subsidiary whose functional  currency and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar.
For  subsidiaries  whose  functional  currency is the local currency,  gains and
losses resulting from translation of these foreign  currencies into U.S. dollars
are  accumulated  in a  separate  component  of  stockholders'  equity.  For the
Malaysian  manufacturing  and  the  Hong  Kong  sales  subsidiaries,  where  the
functional  currency is the U.S.  dollar,  gains and losses  resulting  from the
process of remeasuring  foreign currency financial  statements into U.S. dollars
are  included  in income.  Aggregate  net  foreign  currency  transaction  gains
(losses) totaled  $(141,000),  $(93,000) and $(232,000) in fiscal 1992, 1993 and
1994, respectively. The effect of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on
cash balances held in foreign currencies have not been material.

   Foreign  Exchange  Contracts.   The  Company  enters  into  forward  exchange
contracts  to  hedge  against  the   short-term   impact  of  foreign   currency
fluctuations  on certain  assets  denominated in foreign  currencies.  The total
amount of these  contracts is offset by the  underlying  assets  denominated  in
foreign  currencies.  The gains or losses on these  contracts  are  included  in
income as the  exchange  rates  change and are offset by gains and losses on the
underlying assets being hedged. At April 3, 1994, the Company had $12 million of
forward exchange contracts  outstanding,  with maturity dates through July 1994.
The Company does not anticipate  non-performance  by the counterparties to these
contracts.

   Concentration of Credit Risk and Off-Balance-Sheet  Risk. The Company markets
high-speed integrated circuits to OEMs and distributors  primarily in the United
States,   Europe  and  the  Far  East.  The  Company  performs  on-going  credit
evaluations  of its  customers'  financial  conditions  and limits the amount of
credit extended when deemed necessary but generally does not require collateral.
Management  believes that any risk of loss is  significantly  reduced due to the
diversity of its products,  customers and  geographic  sales areas.  The Company
maintains a provision for potential credit losses.

   The Company sells a significant  portion of its products through  third-party
distributors.  As a  result  of the  merger  of two  of the  Company's  national
distributors,  the receivable  balance from the merged company is significant in
aggregate  for fiscal 1994. If the  financial  condition and  operations of this
distributor  deteriorate below critical levels, the Company's  operating results
could be adversely affected.  This distributor's  receivable balance represented
9% of total accounts  receivable at March 28, 1993 on a pro forma combined basis
and 11% of total  accounts  receivable  at April 3, 1994,  following the merger.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

   The Company  invests its cash and cash  equivalents in cash  deposits,  money
market funds and commercial  paper.  Securities  comprising cash equivalents and
short-term  investments  are  maintained  with high  quality  institutions,  the
composition  and  maturities  of which are  regularly  monitored by  management.
Generally,  a highly liquid market exists for these  securities  and they may be
redeemed  upon demand and,  therefore,  bear minimal  risk.  The Company has not
experienced any material losses on its investments.

   Unaudited Interim Information. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet at
October 2, 1994 and the  consolidated  statements of operations,  cash flows and
shareholders' equity for fiscal quarters ended September 26, 1993 and October 2,
1994 are unaudited. In the opinion of management these financial statements have
been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements
and  reflect  all  adjustments,  consisting  of  normal  recurring  adjustments,
necessary to present fairly the financial data of IDT and its  subsidiaries  for
such periods.  The results of operations and cash flows for the fiscal  quarters
are not  necessarily  indicative  of the  results to be  expected  for any other
fiscal  quarter or for the year ending April 2, 1995.  The data disclosed in the
notes to the consolidated  financial  statements for these periods is unaudited.


NOTE 2--RESTRUCTURING AND SIGNIFICANT OTHER EVENTS

   In fiscal year 1992,  the  Company  recorded  $4.5  million of charges to net
income relating to the abandonment of IDT's original wafer  processing  facility
and product line reorganizations.  The Company has substantially  completed this
restructuring.

   Also in fiscal 1992,  due to changes in the market,  the Company  revised its
estimated  useful lives and future  realizable  values of several assets.  These
charges included a $7.2 million writeoff of excess inventory and $5.4 million of
writeoffs and changes in useful lives of underutilized capital assets. Also, due
to specific events during the second fiscal quarter, the Company provided a $1.3
million reserve for doubtful accounts and recorded $6.4 million of accrued legal
expenses.  Subsequent  developments and resolution of one of these legal matters
led the Company to recognize a $1 million benefit during fiscal 1993.

NOTE 3--OTHER ASSETS--INTANGIBLES

   During   fiscal  1993,   IDT  entered  into   various   royalty-free   patent
cross-license  agreements.  The  patents  licenses  granted  to IDT under  these
agreements have been recorded at their cost of approximately $8,200,000 and will
be amortized on a straight-line basis over five years. The amortization relating
to patents  licenses was $780,000 and  $1,647,000 at March 28, 1993 and April 3,
1994, respectively.

NOTE 4--LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS

   During fiscal 1993,  IDT recorded a long-term  obligation in connection  with
the dismissal of certain  litigation  and entering  into a patent  cross-license
agreement. Under this cross license/technology  agreement, the Company recorded,
at March 28, 1993, a long-term obligation of $7,041,000 representing the present
value discounted at 8% of amounts due at the end of the five-year  license.  The
present values of the amount due at the end of the license term were  $7,041,000
and  $7,471,000  at March 28, 1993 and April 3, 1994,  respectively.  During the
year,  this  amount  payable  has been  reduced by an amount of  royalty  income
pursuant to certain guaranteed revenues realized on sales of IDT's products. The
Company is accreting $3.3 million in future  interest  charges from the recorded
amount  at April 3,  1994 to the  amount  due at the end of the term  using  the
effective interest method.

NOTE 6--LINES OF CREDIT


   The Company's  Malaysian  subsidiary has unsecured  revolving lines of credit
that allow borrowings up to $2,500,000 with three local banks.  These lines have
no  expiration  date.  At April 3, 1994  there  were no  outstanding  borrowings
against these lines. The borrowing rate for these lines would be incurred at the
local bank's cost of funds plus 0.75% to 1% (8.80%-9.25% on April 3, 1994).

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


     In fiscal 1994, the Company's  Japanese  subsidiary had a secured revolving
line of credit that allowed borrowings up to approximately $1,940,000.  The line
of credit automatically  extends until the Company requests  termination.  As of
April 3,  1994,  no amounts  were  outstanding  under  this line of credit.  The
borrowing rate for this line of credit is the local bank's short-term prime rate
existing  at the  borrowing  date plus  0.2%.  At April 3, 1994 this  short-term
borrowing rate was 3.2%.

     The Company also has foreign  exchange  facilities  with several banks that
allow the Company to enter into foreign exchange contracts of up to $30,000,000,
of which $18,026,000 was available at April 3, 1994. 

NOTE 7--COMMITMENTS



     Lease  Commitments.  The  Company  leases  most of its  administrative  and
manufacturing  facilities  under operating lease agreements which expire through
1996. Two facilities were leased from a principal  shareholder.  The annual rent
paid  to this  shareholder  totaled  approximately  $1,995,000,  $1,396,000  and
$1,396,000 in fiscal 1992, 1993 and 1994,  respectively.  One stockholder  lease
expired during fiscal 1992 and the other will expire in June 1995.

     The aggregate  minimum rent  commitments  under all operating leases are as
follows:

   Rent expense for the years ended March 29, 1992,  March 28, 1993 and April 3,
1994 totaled approximately $3,839,000, $3,303,000 and $3,488,000, respectively.

   As of April 3, 1994, four secured standby letters of credit were  outstanding
totaling  $1,937,000.  Three letters of credit are held in  connection  with the
Company's workers  compensation  insurance and mature on June 30, 1994, June 30,
1995 and June 30, 1996. The fourth letter of credit secures the credit  facility
for the Company's Japanese subsidiary and matured on April 4, 1994. 


NOTE 8--FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     The estimated fair value of financial  instruments  has been  determined by
the Company,  using available  market  information and valuation  methodologies.
However,  considerable  judgment  is  required  in  interpreting  market data to
develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein
are not necessarily  indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in
a current  market  exchange.  The use of  different  market  assumptions  and/or
estimation  methodologies  could have a material  effect on the  estimated  fair
value amounts.

     The amount reported for cash and cash equivalents,  short-term investments,
foreign  exchange  contracts and the Malaysian  term loan were  considered to be
reasonable estimates of their fair value.

     The fair values of short-term  and long-term debt were based upon estimated
interest rates  available to the Company for issuance of debt with similar terms
and remaining maturities for existing asset-secured  equipment loans and capital
leases. The estimated fair value of the Company's  short-term and long-term debt
at April 3,  1994 was  $20,784,000.  The fair  value  for the  mortgage  loan is
$10,748,000  estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on an estimated
interest rate of 7.5 percent for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

                      INTEGRATED DEVICE TECHNOLOGY, INC.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


     The fair value  estimates  presented  herein  were  based upon  information
available to management as of April 4, 1994. Although management is not aware of
any factors that would materially affect the estimated fair value amounts,  such
amounts have not been comprehensively  revalued for purposes of the consolidated
financial  statements  since that date, and current  estimates of fair value may
differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

NOTE 9--STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

     Stock  Option  Plans.  The Company has stock  option  plans under which key
employees,  officers,  directors  and  consultants  may be  granted  options  to
purchase shares of the Company's  common stock at prices which are not less than
fair  market  value  at  the  date  of  grant.  Options  granted  are  generally
exercisable in 25% increments each year beginning one year after the grant date.


     At April 3, 1994,  options  for  1,172,000  shares were  exercisable  at an
aggregate exercise price of $4,856,000. At March 28, 1993, options for 2,093,853
shares were exercisable at an aggregate exercise price of $7,692,000.

     Stock  Purchase  Plan.  The Company has a stock  purchase  plan under which
employees and officers may purchase  shares of the Company's  Common Stock.  The
purchase  price at which shares may be  purchased  under this plan is 85% of the
lower of the fair market value on the first or last day of each  quarterly  plan
period. As of March 28, 1993 and April 3, 1994,  1,277,328 and 1,457,771 shares,
respectively,  had  been  purchased  by  employees,  net of  repurchases  by the
Company,  under  the terms of the plan  agreements.  At April 3,  1994,  567,229
shares were reserved and available for issuance under this plan.

Stockholder Rights Plan. In February 1992, the Board approved certain amendments
to the Company's Stockholder Rights Plan. Under the plan, the Company declared a
dividend of one preferred share purchase right (a "Right") for each  outstanding
share  of  common  stock.   Each  Right  entitles  the  holder,   under  certain
circumstances, to purchase common stock of the Company with a value of twice the
exercise

price of the Right.  In addition,  the Board of  Directors  may,  under  certain
circumstances, cause each Right to be exchanged for one share of common stock or
substitute consideration. The Rights are redeemable by the Company and expire in
1998.

NOTE 10--EMPLOYEE BENEFITS PROFIT SHARING PLAN



     Prior to September 24, 1993,  under the Company's  Profit Sharing Plan, the
Board of Directors could authorize  semiannual  contributions for the benefit of
employees of up to 10% of pre-tax earnings,  before profit sharing.  Half of the
annual contribution,  net of expenses, was in the form of cash payments directly
to all domestic and Malaysian  employees meeting certain service  criteria,  and
the residual half was contributed  directly to the Company's Long-Term Incentive
Plan for the purchase of IDT Common Stock on behalf of the Company's employees.

     The Company  received  approval  from the IRS to  terminate  the  Long-Term
Incentive  Plan  effective  September 24, 1993.  Effective this date, all shares
were 100%  vested  and no  additional  shares of IDT stock will be added to this
account.  Beginning  September  27,  1993,  all IDT  employees  will  receive an
increase  in  their  cash  profit  sharing  from 5% to 7% and the  Company  will
contribute an additional 1% of pre-tax profits to the Company's 401(k) plan.

     Administrative   expenses  are  netted  against  the  Profit  Sharing  Plan
contribution. Contributions for the years ended March 28, 1993 and April 3, 1994
for  this  plan  were  $477,000  and  $5,128,000,  respectively.  There  were no
contributions for the year ended March 29, 1992.

   The  Company's  Malaysian  subsidiary  operates  under  a tax  holiday  which
extended through July 1993.  Management believes it is likely that carryovers of
depreciation  from  the  tax  holiday  period  along  with  expected  additional
depreciation grants will defer the time when the Malaysian subsidiary will first
begin to pay local taxes beyond its year ended April 3, 1994.

   The provision for income taxes for the six month period ended October 2, 1994
reflects the estimated  annualized  effective tax rate of 25%. This rate differs
from the  U.S.  statutory  rate of 35%  primarily  due to  earnings  of  foreign
subsidiaries being taxed at lower rates, utilization of research and development
credits and  utilization of certain  deferred tax benefits for which a valuation
allowance was previously required.

   The Company's intention is to permanently reinvest its earnings in all of its
foreign  subsidiaries.  Accordingly,  U.S.  taxes  have  not  been  provided  on
approximately   $19,700,000  of  unremitted  earnings,  of  which  approximately
$17,100,000 were earned by the Company's Malaysian subsidiary. Upon distribution
of those  earnings in the form of  dividends or  otherwise,  the Company will be
subject to both U.S. income taxes and various foreign country withholding taxes.

NOTE 12--INDUSTRY SEGMENT, FOREIGN OPERATIONS

   IDT  operates  predominantly  in one  industry  segment and is engaged in the
design,  development,  manufacture and marketing of high-performance  integrated
circuits.  No single customer or distributor  accounted for more than 10% of net
revenues in fiscal  1992 and 1993.  During  fiscal  1994,  two of the  Company's
national  distributors  became one entity and accounted for 15% of net revenues.
If these two  distributors had been a single entity during fiscal 1992 and 1993,
it would have accounted for 17% and 16%, respectively, of IDT's total revenues.

   Major operations outside the United States include  manufacturing  facilities
in Malaysia and sales  subsidiaries  in Japan,  the Pacific Rim, and  throughout
Europe.


   At March 28, 1993 and April 3, 1994, total liabilities for operations outside
of the United States were $20,152,000 and $20,704,000, respectively.

   Transfers  between  geographic  areas are  accounted for at amounts which are
generally  above cost and consistent with the rules and regulations of governing
tax  authorities.  Such transfers are eliminated in the  consolidated  financial
statements.  Operating  income by  geographic  areas  reflect  foreign  earnings
reported by the foreign  entities and does not include an  allocation of general
corporate  expenses.  Identifiable  assets are those assets that can be directly
associated with a particular  foreign entity and thus do not include assets used
for  general  corporate   purposes:   cash  and  cash  equivalents,   short-term
investments and prepaid income taxes.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS.

     Section 145 of the Delaware  General  Corporation Law permits a corporation
to grant  indemnification  to  directors,  officers  and  other  agents in terms
sufficiently  broad to permit  indemnification  under certain  circumstances for
liabilities,  including expenses,  arising in connection with the Securities Act
of 1933,  as  amended.  Pursuant  to the Bylaws of the  Company,  directors  and
officers of the  Company are  indemnified  to the full extent  permitted  by law
against all expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines or settlement
amounts  incurred  or paid by them in any action or  proceeding,  including  any
action by or on behalf of the Company, on account of their service as an officer
or director of the Company. The Bylaws further provide that the rights conferred
under such Bylaws shall not be deemed exclusive of any other right to which such
persons  may be  entitled  under  the  Delaware  General  Corporation  Law,  the
Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation,  any bylaw, agreement,  vote of
stockholders or disinterested  directors or otherwise.  The Restated Certificate
of Incorporation of the Company precludes, with certain exceptions,  the Company
and its  stockholders  from  recovering  monetary  damages  from  directors  for
business decisions that breach such directors' fiduciary duty.

     The Company also maintains  directors and officers insurance policies which
insure  directors and officers against losses arising from certain wrongful acts
in their official  capacities and reimburses the Company for such loss for which
the Company has lawfully  indemnified  the directors and officers.  In addition,
the Company  has  entered  into an  Indemnification  Agreement  with each of its
directors and officers whereby the Company has agreed to indemnify each director
and officer from and against any and all expenses,  losses,  claims, damages and
liabilities  incurred  by such  director or officer  while  acting in his or her
official capacity.

     Reference is made to Section 11 of the form of Underwriting Agreement filed
as an exhibit  hereto  pursuant  to which the  Underwriter  may,  under  certain
circumstances,  indemnify the  directors and officers of the Company.  Directors
and  officers of the Company may also be  indemnified  in certain  circumstances
under the terms of other underwriting  agreements entered into by the Company in
connection with prior public offerings.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.

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

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


     The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:

     (a) for purposes of determining  any liability  under the Securities Act of
1933, the information  omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this
Registration  Statement  in reliance  upon Rule 430A and  contained in a form of
prospectus  filed by the registrant  pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h)
under  the  Securities  Act  shall  be  deemed  to be part of this  Registration
Statement as of the time it was declared effective.



     (b) for the purpose of determining  any liability  under the Securities Act
of 1933, each post-effective  amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall
be deemed to be a new Registration  Statement relating to the securities offered
therein,  and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.

                                   SECTION 1

                                  INTRODUCTION

         INTEGRATED  DEVICE  TECHNOLOGY,   INC.,  a  Delaware  corporation  (the
"Company"),  proposes to issue and sell  3,300,000  shares of its authorized but
unissued  Common  Stock (the  "Common  Stock") and certain  stockholders  of the
Company named in Schedule B annexed hereto (the "Selling  Stockholders") propose
to sell an aggregate of 100,000 shares of the Company's  issued and  outstanding
Common Stock to the several underwriters named in Schedule A annexed hereto (the
"Underwriters").  Said aggregate of 3,400,000 shares are herein called the "Firm
Common  Shares."  In  addition,  the Company  and one  Selling  Stockholder,  as
designated  on Schedule B,  severally  and not jointly,  propose to grant to the
Underwriters  an option to purchase  up to an  aggregate  of 510,000  additional
shares of Common Stock (the "Optional Common Shares"),  as provided in Section 5
hereof. The Firm Common Shares and, to the extent such option is exercised,  the
Optional Common Shares are hereinafter  collectively  referred to as the "Common
Shares."

         You have  advised the Company  and the  Selling  Stockholders  that the
Underwriters  propose to make a public offering of their respective  portions of
the  Common  Shares  on  the  effective  date  of  the  Registration   Statement
hereinafter referred to, or as soon thereafter as in your judgment is advisable.

         The Company and each of the Selling  Stockholders  hereby confirm their
respective  agreements  with respect to the purchase of the Common Shares by the
Underwriters as follows:

                                   SECTION 2

                 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

         The Company hereby represents and warrants to the several  Underwriters
that:

         (a) A  registration  statement  on Form S-3  (File No.  33-_____)  with
respect to the Common Shares has been prepared by the Company in conformity with
the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"),  and the
Rules and Regulations  (as  hereinafter  defined) of the Securities and Exchange
Commission  (the  "Commission")   thereunder,   and  has  been  filed  with  the
Commission.  The  Company  has  prepared  and has filed or may file prior to the
effective date of such registration statement an amendment or amendments to such
registration  statement,  which  amendment  or  amendments  have been or will be
similarly  prepared.  There have been delivered to you two signed copies of such
registration statement and amendments,  together with two copies of each exhibit
filed therewith.  Conformed copies of such registration statement and amendments
(but  without  exhibits)  and of the related  preliminary  prospectus  have been
delivered to you in such reasonable quantities as you have requested for each of
the  Underwriters.  The Company  will next file with the  Commission  one of the
following:  (i) prior to effectiveness of such registration statement, a further
amendment  thereto,  including  the  form of final  prospectus,  or (ii) a final
prospectus  in  accordance   with  Rules  430A  and  424(b)  of  the  Rules  and
Regulations.  As filed,  such  amendment and form of final  prospectus,  or such
final  prospectus,  shall  include  all Rule 430A  Information  (as  hereinafter
defined)  and,  except  to the  extent  that you  shall  agree in  writing  to a
modification,  shall be in all substantive respects in the form furnished to you
prior to the date and time that this Agreement was executed and delivered by the
parties  hereto,  or, to the extent not  completed at such date and time,  shall
contain only such specific additional information and other changes (beyond that
contained in the latest Preliminary  Prospectus (as hereinafter defined)) as the
Company shall have  previously  advised you in writing would be included or made
therein.

         The term "Registration  Statement" as used in this Agreement shall mean
such  registration  statement at the time such  registration  statement  becomes
effective  and,  in the  event  any  post-effective  amendment  thereto  becomes
effective prior to the First Closing Date (as hereinafter  defined),  shall also
mean such registration  statement as so amended;  provided,  however,  that such
term shall also include all Rule 430A Information  deemed to be included in such
registration statement at the time such registration statement becomes effective
as provided  by Rule 430A of the Rules and  Regulations.  The term  "Preliminary
Prospectus" shall mean any preliminary  prospectus  referred to in the preceding
paragraph and any preliminary  prospectus included in the Registration Statement
at the time it becomes  effective  that omits  Rule 430A  Information.  The term
"Prospectus" as used in this Agreement shall mean the prospectus relating to the
Common  Shares  in the  form in  which it is  first  filed  with the  Commission
pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and  Regulations  or, if no filing pursuant
to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations is required,  shall mean the form of
final  prospectus  included  in the  Registration  Statement  at the  time  such
registration statement becomes effective. The term "Rule 430A Information" means
information with respect to the Common Shares and the offering thereof permitted
to be omitted from the Registration Statement when it


                                      -2-

<PAGE>



becomes  effective  pursuant  to Rule  430A of the Rules  and  Regulations.  Any
reference herein to the Registration  Statement,  any Preliminary  Prospectus or
the  Prospectus  shall be deemed to refer to and  include  (unless  the  context
otherwise  requires)  any and all  documents  and  information  incorporated  by
reference  therein  pursuant  to Form S-3 under the Act,  as of the date of such
Registration  Statement,  Preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus,  as the case may
be, and shall be deemed to refer to and  include any  documents  filed after the
date of such Registration  Statement,  Preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus,  as
the case may be, and which are  incorporated  by reference  under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934,  as amended  (the  "Exchange  Act").  For purposes of this
Agreement,  "Rules and Regulations" mean the Rules and Regulations as adopted by
the Commission under either the Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable.

         (b) The  Commission  has not issued any order  preventing or suspending
the use of any  Preliminary  Prospectus,  and each  Preliminary  Prospectus  has
conformed in all material  respects to the requirements of the Act and the Rules
and Regulations  and, as of its date, has not included any untrue statement of a
material  fact or  omitted  to  state a  material  fact  necessary  to make  the
statements  therein,  in the light of the  circumstances  under  which they were
made,  not  misleading;  and at the  time  the  Registration  Statement  becomes
effective,  and at all times subsequent thereto up to and including each Closing
Date hereinafter mentioned,  the Registration Statement and the Prospectus,  and
any amendments or supplements thereto,  will contain all material statements and
information  required  to be  included  therein  by the Act and  the  Rules  and
Regulations and will in all material respects conform to the requirements of the
Act and the Rules and Regulations,  and neither the  Registration  Statement nor
the Prospectus, nor any amendment or supplement thereto, will include any untrue
statement  of a material  fact or omit to state a material  fact  required to be
stated  therein or  necessary  to make the  statements  therein not  misleading;
provided,  however,  no representation or warranty  contained in this subsection
2(b)  shall be  applicable  to  information  contained  in or  omitted  from any
Preliminary Prospectus,  the Registration Statement,  the Prospectus or any such
amendment  or  supplement  in  reliance  upon  and in  conformity  with  written
information  furnished  to  the  Company  by or on  behalf  of  any  Underwriter
specifically for use in the preparation thereof.  The documents  incorporated by
reference in the Preliminary  Prospectus or Prospectus or from which information
is so incorporated by reference,  when they became  effective or were filed with
the Commission,  as the case may be,  conformed in all material  respects to the
requirements  of the Act or  Exchange  Act,  as  applicable,  and the  Rules and
Regulations, and any documents so filed and incorporated by reference subsequent
to the effective date of the Registration  Statement shall,  when they are filed
with the Commission,  comply in all material respects to the requirements of the
Act and Exchange Act, as applicable, and Rules and Regulations, and none of such
documents  contained  at the  time of  filing  with  the  Commission  an  untrue
statement of a material  fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

         (c) The Company does not own or control,  directly or  indirectly,  any
corporation,  association or other entity other than the subsidiaries  listed in
Exhibit  22 to the  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the  Company's  most  recent
fiscal year. The Company and each of its subsidiaries  other than Quantum Effect
Design, Inc. ("QED") (herein collectively referred to as "Subsidiaries"),


                                      -3-

have been duly  incorporated  and are validly  existing as  corporations in good
standing under the laws of their respective jurisdictions of incorporation, with
full power and authority (corporate and other) to own and lease their properties
and conduct  their  respective  businesses as described in the Prospec- tus; the
Company owns all of the  outstanding  capital stock of its  Subsidiaries  (other
than director's  qualifying shares) free and clear of all claims, liens, charges
and encumbrances;  the Company and each of its Subsidiaries are in possession of
and  operating  in  compliance  with  all  authorizations,   licenses,  permits,
consents,  certificates  and orders material to the conduct of their  respective
businesses, all of which are valid and in full force and effect except where the
failure  to be in such  possession  or  compliance,  or the  failure of any such
authorizations, licenses, permits, consents, certificates or orders would not in
any single case or in the  aggregate,  have a material  adverse  affect upon the
condition (financial or otherwise), business, results of operations,  properties
or prospects of the Company or the affected Subsidiary;  the Company and each of
its  Subsidiaries  are duly  qualified  to do business  and in good  standing as
foreign  corporations in each  jurisdiction in which the ownership or leasing of
properties  or  the  conduct  of  their  respective   businesses  requires  such
qualification, except for jurisdictions in which the failure to so qualify would
not have a material adverse affect upon the condition  (financial or otherwise),
business,  results of operations,  properties or prospects of the Company or the
effected  Subsidiary;  and  no  proceeding  has  been  instituted  in  any  such
jurisdiction,  revoking,  limiting or curtailing, or seeking to revoke, limit or
curtail, such power and authority or qualification.

         QED has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation
in good  standing  under the laws of the state of its  incorporation,  with full
power and authority  (corporate  and other) to own and lease its  properties and
conduct its business as described in the Prospectus.  The Company owns 2,200,000
shares of the Common Stock of QED and 1,440,000 shares of the Series A Preferred
Stock of QED,  constituting  approximately  48% of the Common Stock of QED and a
majority of the Preferred Stock of QED. The shares of capital stock of QED owned
by the  Company  are owned  free and clear of all  claims,  liens,  charges  and
encumbrances;  and were duly authorized and validly  issued,  are fully paid and
nonassessable. To the best knowledge of the Company, QED is in possession of and
operating in compliance with all authorizations,  licenses,  permits,  consents,
certificates  and orders material to the conduct of its business,  all of which,
to the best knowledge of the Company,  are in full force and effect except where
the failure to be in such  possession or compliance,  or the failure of any such
authorizations, licenses, permits, consents, certificates or orders would not in
any single case or in the  aggregate,  have a material  adverse  effect upon the
condition (financial or otherwise), business, results of operations,  properties
or prospects of the Company or QED. To the best knowledge of the Company, QED is
duly  qualified to do business and in good standing as a foreign  corporation in
each jurisdiction in which the ownership or leasing of properties or the conduct
of its business requires such  qualification,  except for jurisdictions in which
the  failure to so qualify  would not have a material  adverse  effect  upon the
condition (financial or otherwise), business, results of operations,  properties
or prospects of the Company or QED; and to the best knowledge of the Company, no
proceeding has been instituted in any such jurisdiction,  revoking,  limiting or
curtailing,  or seeking to revoke, limit or curtail, such power and authority or
qualification. To the best knowledge of the Company, the Company is the sole and
exclusive owner of the Products,  as such term is defined in the Development and
License Agreement


                                      -4-

between the Company and QED dated as of January  13,  1992,  as amended.  To the
best knowledge of the Company,  the  representations and warranties set forth in
subparagraphs  (i),  (k),  (l),  (m),  (n),  (o),  (p), (q), (s) and (t) of this
Section 2 are also true and correct with  respect to QED. To the best  knowledge
of the  Company,  QED does  not own or  control,  directly  or  indirectly,  any
corporation, association or other entity.

         (d) The Company has an authorized and outstanding  capital stock as set
forth  under the  heading  "Capitalization"  in the  Prospectus;  the issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock have been duly authorized and validly issued,
are fully  paid and  nonassessable,  have been  issued  in  compliance  with all
federal and state  securities  laws (except where  noncompliance  with any state
securities  law would not have a material  effect  upon the  Company),  were not
issued in  violation of or subject to any  preemptive  rights or other rights to
subscribe for or purchase  securities,  and conform to the  description  thereof
contained in the Prospectus.  All issued and outstanding shares of capital stock
of each  Subsidiary  have been duly  authorized and validly issued and are fully
paid and  nonassessable.  Except as disclosed or incorporated by reference in or
contemplated by the Prospectus and the financial  statements of the Company, and
the related notes thereto,  included in the Prospectus,  neither the Company nor
any Subsidiary has outstanding any options to purchase, or any preemptive rights
or other rights to subscribe for or to purchase,  any  securities or obligations
convertible  into, or any contracts or commitments  to issue or sell,  shares of
its  capital  stock or any  such  options,  rights,  convertible  securities  or
obligations.  The description of the Company's stock option,  stock purchase and
other stock plans or  arrangements,  and the options or other rights granted and
exercised thereunder, incorporated by reference in the Prospectus accurately and
fairly presents the information required to be shown with respect to such plans,
arrangements, options and rights.

         (e) The Common Shares to be sold  hereunder  have been duly  authorized
and either are or, when issued,  delivered  and paid for in the manner set forth
in this Agreement,  will be, duly  authorized,  validly  issued,  fully paid and
nonassessable,  and will  conform to the  description  thereof  contained in the
Prospectus.  No  preemptive  rights or other rights to subscribe for or purchase
exist with respect to the issuance and sale of the Common  Shares by the Company
pursuant to this  Agreement.  No  stockholder of the Company has any right which
has not been  exercised or waived to require the Company to register the sale of
any  shares  owned by such  stockholder  under  the Act in the  public  offering
contemplated  by  this  Agreement.  No  further  approval  or  authority  of the
stockholders  or the Board of  Directors of the Company will be required for the
transfer and sale of the Common Shares to be sold by the Selling Stockholders or
the  issuance  and  sale of the  Common  Shares  to be sold  by the  Company  as
contemplated herein.

         (f) The Company has full legal right, power and authority to enter into
this Agreement and perform the transactions  contemplated hereby. This Agreement
has been duly authorized,  executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes
a valid and binding  obligation of the Company in accordance with its terms. The
making and performance of this Agreement by the Company and the  consummation of
the transactions  herein contemplated will not (i) violate any provisions of the
charter,  bylaws or other organizational  documents of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries,  (ii)  conflict  with,  result in the breach or  violation  of, or
constitute, either by itself or


                                      -5-

<PAGE>



upon  notice or the  passage  of time or both,  a default  under any  agreement,
mortgage, deed of trust, lease, franchise,  license,  indenture, permit or other
instrument  to which the  Company  or any of its  Subsidiaries  is a party or by
which  the  Company  or any  of its  Subsidiaries  or  any of  their  respective
properties  may be bound or  affected  or (iii)  conflict  with or violate  any
material statute or any authorization, judgment, decree, order, rule or material
regulation of any court or any regulatory body,  administrative  agency or other
governmental body applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of
their respective properties. No consent, approval,  authorization or other order
of any court, regulatory body,  administrative agency or other governmental body
is required for the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation
of the transactions  contemplated by this Agreement,  except for compliance with
the Act, the U.S. Blue Sky laws  applicable to the public offering of the Common
Shares by the several  Underwriters  and the clearance of such offering with the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD").

         (g) Price Waterhouse LLP, who has expressed its opinion with respect to
certain of the financial statements and schedules filed with the Commission as a
part of the  Registration  Statement and included in the  Prospectus  and in the
Registration  Statement,  are independent accountants as required by the Act and
the Rules and  Regulations.  Except as disclosed in the Prospectus,  the Company
maintains a system of internal  accounting controls which it believes sufficient
to  provide  reasonable   assurances  that  (i)  transactions  are  executed  in
accordance   with   management's   general  or  specific   authorization;   (ii)
transactions  are  recorded as  necessary  to permit  preparation  of  financial
statements in conformity with generally  accepted  accounting  principles and to
maintain  accountability for assets; (iii) access to assets is permitted only in
accordance with  management's  general or specific  authorization;  and (iv) the
recorded  accounting  for assets is compared with existing  assets at reasonable
intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences.

         (h) The  financial  statements  and  schedules  of the  Company and its
subsidiaries,  and the  related  notes  thereto,  included  or  incorporated  by
reference in the  Registration  Statement and the Prospectus  present fairly the
financial  position  of the Company and its  subsidiaries  as of the  respective
dates of such financial statements and schedules,  and the results of operations
and changes in financial  position of the Company and its  subsidiaries  for the
respective periods covered thereby. Such statements, schedules and related notes
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted  accounting  principles
applied  on a  consistent  basis as  certified  by  Price  Waterhouse  LLP,  the
independent  accountants  named in subsection 2(g), as the case may be. No other
financial statements or schedules are required to be included or incorporated by
reference in the Registration  Statement.  The selected financial data set forth
in the Prospectus under the captions "Capitalization" and "Selected Consolidated
Financial  Data" fairly present the  information  set forth therein on the basis
stated in the Registration Statement.

         (i) Neither the  Company  nor any of its  Subsidiaries  is, or with the
giving of notice or lapse of time or both would be, in  violation  of or default
under any provision of its charter,  bylaws or other  organizational  documents.
Neither the Company nor any of its  Subsidiaries  is in violation,  breach of or
default with respect to any provision of any agreement, judgment, decree, order,


                                      -6-


<PAGE>



mortgage, deed of trust, lease, franchise,  license,  indenture, permit or other
instrument  to which the  Company  or any of its  Subsidiaries  is a party or by
which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries'  respective properties,  is or are
bound or affected,  except as to violations,  breaches or defaults, which in any
single case or in the aggregate would not have a material  adverse effect on the
condition (financial or otherwise), business, results of operations,  properties
or prospects of the Company or any Subsidiary;  and to the best of the Company's
knowledge, there does not exist any state of facts which constitutes an event of
default  on the part of the  Company or any such  Subsidiary  as defined in such
documents or which,  with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such
an event of default  where such default or event of default  would have,  in any
single case or in the  aggregate,  a material  adverse  effect on the  condition
(financial  or  otherwise),  business,  results  of  operations,  properties  or
prospects of the Company or any Subsidiary.

         (j) There are no statutes,  contracts or other documents required to be
described  in the  Registration  Statement  or to be  filed as  exhibits  to the
Registration Statement by the Act or by the Rules and Regulations which have not
been described or filed as required. The statutes,  contracts or other documents
described or  incorporated  by reference in the  Registration  Statement and the
Prospectus fairly present the information required to be provided by the Act and
the Rules and  Regulations.  The  contracts so described  in the  Prospectus  or
listed as exhibits to the Registration  Statement or incorporated therein are in
full force and effect on the date hereof; and neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries,  nor to the best of the Company's knowledge, any other party is in
breach of or  default  under any of such  contracts  except  as to  breaches  or
defaults, which in any single case or in the aggregate would not have a material
adverse effect on the financial  condition or business  prospects of the Company
or any  Subsidiary.  Complete and fully  executed  copies of such contracts were
provided to counsel for the  Underwriters and there exist no agreements or other
documents which modify, change or amend such contracts.

         (k)  Except  as  disclosed  in the  Prospectus,  there  are no legal or
governmental  actions,  suits  or  proceedings  pending  or,  to the best of the
Company's knowledge,  threatened to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
is or may be a party, or of which property owned or leased by the Company or any
of its  Subsidiaries is or may be the subject,  or related to  environmental  or
employee matters, which action, suit or proceeding might, individually or in the
aggregate,  prevent or adversely  affect the  transactions  contemplated by this
Agreement or result in a material adverse change in the condition  (financial or
otherwise),  properties,  business,  results of  operations  or prospects of the
Company and its  Subsidiaries;  and no labor disturbance by the employees of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries exists or is imminent which might be expected
to affect adversely such condition,  properties, business, results of operations
or prospects. Except for the Limited Exclusion Order dated February 18, 1992 and
the Order to Cease and Desist dated February 18, 1992, each issued by the United
States  International  Trade  Commission in connection  with  Investigation  No.
337-TA-315,  and the determination of the administrative law judge in connection
therewith, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party or subject
to the  provisions of any  injunction,  judgment,  decree or order of any court,
regulatory body, administrative agency or other governmental body.



                                      -7-

         (l) The Company and its Subsidiaries  have good and marketable title to
all the  properties  and assets  reflected as owned in the financial  statements
hereinabove  described  (or  elsewhere in the  Prospectus),  subject to no lien,
mortgage,  pledge,  charge or encumbrance of any kind except (i) those,  if any,
reflected in such financial statements (or elsewhere in the Prospectus), or (ii)
those which are not material in amount and do not adversely  affect the use made
and  proposed  to be  made  of  such  property  by the  Company  and  any of its
Subsidiaries.  The Company and its  Subsidiaries  hold their  respective  leased
properties  under  valid and binding  leases,  with such  exceptions  as are not
materially  significant  in relation to the business of the  Company.  Except as
disclosed in the Prospectus,  the Company and its  Subsidiaries own or lease all
such properties as are necessary to their respective operations as now conducted
or as proposed to be conducted.

         (m) Since the respective dates as of which  information is given in the
Registration   Statement  and   Prospectus,   and  except  as  described  in  or
specifically   contemplated  by  the   Prospectus:   (i)  the  Company  and  its
Subsidiaries  have  not  incurred  any  material   liabilities  or  obligations,
indirect,  direct or contingent,  or entered into any material verbal or written
agreement or other  transaction  which is not in the ordinary course of business
or which could result in a material reduction in the future revenues or earnings
of the Company and its subsidiaries;  (ii) the Company and its Subsidiaries have
not sustained any material loss or interference with their respective businesses
or properties from fire, flood, windstorm,  accident or other calamity,  whether
or not covered by  insurance;  (iii) the  Company  has not paid or declared  any
dividends  or other  distributions  with  respect to its  capital  stock and the
Company and its  Subsidiaries  are not in default in the payment of principal or
interest on any outstanding debt obligations; (iv) there has not been any change
in the capital  stock (other than upon the sale of the Common  Shares  hereunder
and upon the  issuance of capital  stock on the exercise of options and warrants
or  pursuant  to a  stock  purchase  plan,  in  each  case  as  described  in or
contemplated by the  Registration  Statement and the Prospectus) or indebtedness
material to the Company and its Subsidiaries  (other than in the ordinary course
of  business);  and (v) there has not been any  material  adverse  change in the
condition (financial or otherwise),  business, properties, results of operations
or prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

         (n) Except as disclosed in or  contemplated  by the  Prospectus (i) the
Company and its Subsidiaries  have sufficient  trademarks,  trade names,  patent
rights,   mask  works,   copyrights,   licenses,   approvals  and   governmental
authorizations  to conduct their businesses as now conducted and as contemplated
to be conducted;  (ii) the  expiration of any  trademarks,  trade names,  patent
rights,   mask  works,   copyrights,   licenses,   approvals   or   governmental
authorizations,  in any  single  case  or in the  aggregate,  would  not  have a
material  adverse effect on the condition  (financial or  otherwise),  business,
results of operations or prospects of the Company or its Subsidiaries; and (iii)
the Company has no knowledge of any  infringement  by it or its  subsidiaries of
trademark,  trade name rights, patent rights, mask works, copyrights,  licenses,
trade secret or other similar rights of others, and there is no claim being made
against the Company or its Subsidiaries regarding trademark, trade name, patent,
mask work,  copyright,  license,  trade secret or other infringement which could

               REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE UNDERWRITERS

         Each of the Underwriters  represents and warrants to the Company and to
the Selling Stockholders that the information set forth (i) on the cover page of

                                   SECTION 5

                  PURCHASE, SALE AND DELIVERY OF COMMON SHARES

         On the basis of the  representations,  warranties and agreements herein
contained,  but subject to the terms and  conditions  herein set forth,  (i) the
Company  agrees  to issue  and sell to the  Underwriters  3,300,000  of the Firm
Common  Shares,  and (ii) the  Selling  Stockholders  agree,  severally  and not
jointly,  to sell to the  Underwriters  in the  respective  amounts set forth in
Schedule  B hereto,  an  aggregate  of 100,000 of the Firm  Common  Shares.  The
Underwriters agree,  severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company and
the  Selling  Stockholders,  respectively,  the  number  of Firm  Common  Shares
described  below.  The  purchase  price  per  share  to be paid  by the  several
Underwriters to the Company and to the Selling Stockholders, respectively, shall
be $_____ per share.



                                      -12-

<PAGE>



         The obligation of each  Underwriter to the Company shall be to purchase
from the Company that number of full shares which (as nearly as practicable,  as
determined  by you)  bears to  3,300,000  the same  proportion  as the number of
shares set forth  opposite  the name of such  Underwriter  in  Schedule A hereto
bears  to the  total  number  of Firm  Common  Shares.  The  obligation  of each
Underwriter  to the Selling  Stockholders  shall be to purchase from the Selling
Stockholders  that number of full  shares  which (as nearly as  practicable,  as
determined by you) bears to 100,000 the same  proportion as the number of shares
set forth  opposite the name of such  Underwriter  in Schedule A hereto bears to
the total number of Firm Common Shares.

         Delivery of certificates  for the Firm Common Shares to be purchased by
the Underwriters and payment therefor shall be made at the offices of Montgomery
Securities,  600 Montgomery  Street,  San  Francisco,  California (or such other
place as may be agreed upon by the Company  and the  Underwriters)  at such time
and date,  not later than the fifth full  business day  following the first date
that any of the Common Shares are released by you for sale to the public, as you
shall designate by at least  forty-eight  (48) hours prior notice to the Company
(or at such other  time and date,  not later than one week after such fifth full
business  day as may be agreed upon by the Company  and the  Underwriters)  (the
"First Closing Date"); provided,  however, that if the Prospectus is at any time
prior to the First Closing Date  recirculated  to the public,  the First Closing
Date shall occur upon the later of the fifth full  business  day  following  the
first date that any of the Common  Shares  are  released  by you for sale to the
public  or the date  that is  forty-eight  (48)  hours  after  the date that the
Prospectus has been so recirculated.

         Delivery of certificates for the Firm Common Shares shall be made by or
on behalf of the Company and the Selling Stockholders to you, for the respective
accounts of the  Underwriters  with respect to the Firm Common Shares to be sold
by the Company and by the Selling  Stockholders  against payment by you, for the
accounts  of  the  several  Underwriters,  of the  purchase  price  therefor  by
certified or official bank checks  payable in next day funds to the order of the
Company and of the Agent in proportion to the number of Firm Common Shares to be
sold by the Company and the Selling Stockholders, respectively. The certificates
for the Firm Common Shares shall be  registered in such names and  denominations
as you shall have  requested  at least two (2) full  business  days prior to the
First  Closing Date,  and shall be made  available for checking and packaging on
the  business  day  preceding  the  First  Closing  Date  at a  location  in San
Francisco,  California  or such other place as may be  designated  by you.  Time
shall be of the essence,  and  delivery at the time and place  specified in this
Agreement is a further condition to the obligations of the Underwriters.

                  In addition,  on the basis of the representations,  warranties
and agreements herein contained,  but subject to the terms and conditions herein
set forth, the Company and the one Selling Stockholder designated on Schedule B,
severally and not jointly, hereby grant an option to the several Underwriters to
purchase,  severally  and not jointly,  up to an  aggregate of 510,000  Optional
Common  Shares at the  purchase  price per share to be paid for the Firm  Common
Shares,  for use  solely in  covering  any  over-allotments  made by you for the
account of the  Underwriters  in the sale and  distribution  of the Firm  Common
Shares. Such Selling Stockholder grants an option to the several Underwriters to
purchase that number of Optional Common Shares as is set forth on


                                      -13-

<PAGE>



         Schedule B and the Company grants an option to the several Underwriters
to purchase the remaining  number of Optional Common Shares.  The option granted
hereunder  may be exercised  at any time (but not more than once) within  thirty
(30) days after the first date that any of the Common Shares are released by you
for sale to the  public,  upon  notice by you to the  Company  and said  Selling
Stockholder  setting forth the aggregate  number of Optional Common Shares as to
which the Underwriters are exercising the option, the names and denominations in
which the  certificates  for such shares are to be  registered  and the time and
place at which such certificates will be delivered. Such time of delivery (which
may not be earlier than the First Closing Date), being herein referred to as the
"Second Closing Date," shall be determined by you, but if at any time other than
the First  Closing  Date shall not be earlier than three nor later than five (5)
full business days after  delivery of such notice of exercise.  If the option is
exercised  for less  than all of the  Optional  Common  Shares,  the  number  of
Optional  Common  Shares  to be  purchased  from the  Company  and such  Selling
Stockholder shall be allocated  proportionately  based upon the respective ratio
the aggregate  number of Optional  Common Shares  granted by each of the Company
and the  Selling  Stockholder  bears to the  aggregate  Optional  Common  Shares
granted by all parties.  The number of Optional Common Shares to be purchased by
each  Underwriter  from  the  Company  and  such  Selling  Stockholder  shall be
determined by multiplying  the aggregate  number of Optional Common Shares to be
sold by the  Company  and such  Selling  Stockholder  pursuant to such notice of
exercise  by a  fraction,  the  numerator  of which is the number of Firm Common
Shares to be purchased  by such  Underwriter  as set forth  opposite its name in
Schedule  A  and  the  denominator  of  which  is  3,400,000  (subject  to  such
adjustments  to  eliminate  any  fractional  share  purchases  as  you  in  your
discretion may make).  Certificates  for the Optional Common Shares will be made
available  for checking and  packaging on the business day  preceding the Second
Closing Date at a location in San  Francisco,  California or such other place as
may be designated by you. The manner of payment for and delivery of the Optional
Common Shares shall be the same as for the Firm Common Shares purchased from the
Company  and  said  Selling  Stockholder  as  specified  in  the  two  preceding
paragraphs.  At any time before lapse of the option,  you may cancel such option
by giving  written notice of such  cancellation  to the Company and said Selling
Stockholder.  If the option is  canceled or expires  unexercised  in whole or in
part, the Company will  deregister  under the Act the number of Option Shares as
to which the option has not been exercised.

         Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Underwriters propose to
make a public offering of their respective portions of the Common Shares as soon
after the effective date of the Registration Statement as in the judgment of the
Underwriters  is  advisable  and at the public  offering  price set forth on the
cover page of and on the terms set forth in the Prospectus.

                            COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY

         The Company covenants and agrees that:

         (a) The  Company  will use its best  efforts to cause the  Registration
Statement and any amendment thereof,  if not effective at the time and date that
this  Agreement  is executed  and  delivered  by the parties  hereto,  to become
effective.  If the  Registration  Statement  has  become  or  becomes  effective
pursuant  to Rule  430A of the  Rules  and  Regulations,  or the  filing  of the
Prospectus is otherwise required under Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations,
the  Company  will file the  Prospectus,  properly  completed,  pursuant  to the
applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations within the time
period  prescribed and will provide evidence  satisfactory to you of such timely
filing.  The Company will  promptly  advise you in writing (i) of the receipt of
any  comments  of the  Commission,  (ii) of any  request of the  Commission  for
amendment of or supplement to the Registration Statement (either before or after
it becomes  effective),  any  Preliminary  Prospectus  or the  Prospectus or for
additional information,  (iii) when the Registration Statement shall have become
effective,  and  (iv)  of the  issuance  by the  Commission  of any  stop  order
suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of the institution
of any proceedings for that purpose. If the Commission shall enter any such stop
order at any time,  the Company  will use its best efforts to obtain the lifting
of such order at the  earliest  possible  moment.  The Company will not file any
amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement (either before or after it
becomes  effective),  any  Preliminary  Prospectus or the Prospectus or file any
document  under  the  Exchange  Act if  such  document  would  be  deemed  to be
incorporated  by reference into the  Preliminary  Prospectus or  Prospectus,  of
which you have not been  furnished  with a copy a reasonable  time prior to such
filing or to which you reasonably  object or which is not in compliance with the
Act and the Rules and Regulations.

         (b) The Company  will  prepare and file with the  Commission,  promptly
upon your request,  any amendments or supplements to the Registration  Statement
or the Prospectus which in your judgment may be necessary or advisable to enable
the several  Underwriters to continue the  distribution of the Common Shares and
will use its best  efforts to cause the same to become  effective as promptly as
possible.  The Company will fully and  completely  comply with the provisions of
Rule 430A of the Rules and Regulations with respect to information  omitted from
the Registration Statement in reliance upon such Rule.

         (c) If at any time within the nine-month  period referred to in Section
10(a)(3) of the Act during which a prospectus  relating to the Common  Shares is
required to be delivered  under the Act any event  occurs,  as a result of which
the Prospectus, including any amendments or supplements, would include an untrue
statement of a material  fact, or omit to state any material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or if
it is necessary at any time to amend the Prospectus, including any amendments or
supplements,  or to file under the  Exchange  Act any  document  which  would be
deemed to be incorporated by reference in the


                                      -15-


<PAGE>



Prospectus,  in order to comply with the Exchange  Act, the Act or the Rules and
Regulations,  the Company  will  promptly  advise you thereof and will  promptly
prepare  and  file  with  the  Commission,  at its own  expense,  an  amendment,
supplement  or document  which will  correct  such  statement  or  omission,  an
amendment, supplement or document which will effect such compliance and will use
its best efforts to cause the same to become effective as soon as possible; and,
in case  any  Underwriter  is  required  to  deliver  a  prospectus  after  such
nine-month  period,  the  Company  upon  request,  but at the  expense  of  such
Underwriter,   will  promptly  prepare  such  amendment  or  amendments  to  the
Registration Statement and such Prospectus or Prospectuses or file such document
as may be  necessary  to permit  compliance  with the  requirements  of  Section
10(a)(3) of the Act.

         (d) As soon as  practicable,  but not later than  forty-five  (45) days
after the end of the first  quarter  ending  after  one (1) year  following  the
"effective date of the Registration Statement" (as defined in Rule 158(c) of the
Rules and  Regulations),  the  Company  will  make  generally  available  to its
security holders an earnings  statement  (which need not be audited)  covering a
period of twelve (12)  consecutive  months beginning after the effective date of
the  Registration  Statement  which  will  satisfy  the  provisions  of the last
paragraph of Section 11(a) of the Act.

         (e)  During  such  period  as a  prospectus  is  required  by law to be
delivered in connection with sales by an Underwriter or dealer, the Company,  at
its expense,  but only for the nine-month period referred to in Section 10(a)(3)
of the Act, will furnish to you or mail to your order copies of the Registration
Statement,  the Prospectus,  the  Preliminary  Prospectus and all amendments and
supplements  to any such  documents  (including  any  documents  filed under the
Exchange Act and deemed to be incorporated by reference into the Prospectus), in
each case as soon as  available  and in such  quantities  as you may  reasonably
request, for the purposes contemplated by the Act.

         (f) The Company shall  cooperate  with you and your counsel in order to
qualify or register the Common Shares for sale under (or obtain  exemptions from
the  application  of) the  U.S.  Blue  Sky  laws of  such  jurisdictions  as you
designate,  will comply with such laws and will  continue  such  qualifications,
registrations  and  exemptions in effect so long as reasonably  required for the
distribution of the Common Shares.  The Company shall not be required to qualify
as a foreign  corporation or to file a general  consent to service of process in
any such jurisdiction  where it is not presently  qualified or where it would be
subject to  taxation  as a foreign  corporation.  The  Company  will  advise you
promptly of the suspension of the  qualification or registration of (or any such
exemption  relating to) the Common Shares for  offering,  sale or trading in any
jurisdiction or any initiation or threat of any proceeding for any such purpose,
and in the event of the  issuance of any order  suspending  such  qualification,
registration or exemption, the Company, with your cooperation, will use its best
efforts to obtain the withdrawal thereof.

         (g) During the period of five (5) years hereafter,  or, if shorter, for
so  long  as  required  by  law,  the  Company  will  furnish  to  each  of  the
Underwriters:  (i) as soon as  practicable  after the end of each  fiscal  year,
copies of the Annual Report of the Company  containing  the balance sheet of the
Company  as of  the  close  of  such  fiscal  year  and  statements  of  income,
stockholders'  equity  and cash  flows for the year then  ended and the  opinion
thereon of the Company's independent public


                                      -16-

accountants;  (ii) as soon as practicable  after the filing  thereof,  copies of
each proxy statement, Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q,
Report on Form 8-K or other report filed by the Company with the Commission, the
NASD or any securities exchange;  and (iii) as soon as available,  copies of any
report or communication of the Company mailed generally to holders of its Common
Stock.

         (h) During the period of ninety (90) days after the first date that any
of the Common  Shares are  released by you for sale to the  public,  without the
prior written consent of Montgomery Securities (which consent may be withheld at
the sole discretion of Montgomery Securities),  the Company will not, other than
pursuant to outstanding stock options and warrants or otherwise  pursuant to the

                  is duly qualified to do business as a foreign  corporation and
                  is in good  standing  in all  other  jurisdictions  where  the
                  ownership  or  leasing  of  properties  or the  conduct of its
                  business requires such qualification, except for jurisdictions
                  in which the  failure to so qualify  would not have a material
                  adverse  effect on the  Company or its  Material  Subsidiaries
                  taken as a whole,  and has full corporate  power and authority

                  not have a  material  adverse  effect on the  Company  or QED,
                  taken as a whole,  and to such  counsel's  knowledge,  QED has
                  full  corporate  power and authority to own, lease and operate

                           (11)  To the  best of such  counsel's  knowledge,  no
                  holders of  securities  of the Company  have rights which have
                  not been exercised,  waived or expired to the  registration of
                  shares of Common  Stock or other  securities,  because  of the
                  filing of the  Registration  Statement  by the  Company or the
                  offering contemplated hereby;

                           (12) To the best of such  counsel's  knowledge,  this
                  Agreement  and  the  Stockholders  Agreement  have  been  duly
                  authorized,  executed and delivered by or on behalf of each of
                  the Selling Stockholders;  the Agent has been duly and validly
                  authorized  to act as the custodian of the Common Shares to be
                  sold by each such Selling Stockholder;  and the performance of
                  this  Agreement  and  the   Stockholders   Agreement  and  the
                  consummation of the  transactions  herein  contemplated by the
                  Selling  Stockholders  will  not  result  in a breach  of,  or
                  constitute a default under, any


                                      -22-

                  indenture,  mortgage,  will, deed of trust,  note agreement or
                  other  agreement or instrument  known to such counsel to which
                  any of the Selling  Stockholders is a party or by which any of
                  the Selling  Stockholders  or any of their  properties  may be
                  bound, or violate any statute,  judgment,  decree, order, rule
                  or   regulation   known  to  such  counsel  of  any  court  or
                  governmental body having  jurisdiction over any of the Selling
                  Stockholders  or any of their  properties;  and to the best of
                  such counsel's knowledge, no consent, approval,  authorization
                  or order of any court, governmental agency or body is required
                  for  the  execution  and  delivery  of this  Agreement  or the
                  Stockholders  Agreement  or the  consummation  by the  Selling
                  Stockholders   of  the   transactions   contemplated  by  this
                  Agreement,  except such as have been  obtained and are in full
                  force and  effect  under  the Act and such as may be  required
                  under the rules of the NASD and applicable U.S. Blue Sky laws;

                           (13) To the  best of such  counsel's  knowledge,  the
                  Selling  Stockholders have full right,  power and authority to
                  enter into this Agreement and the  Stockholders  Agreement and
                  to sell,  transfer and deliver the Common Shares to be sold on
                  such  Closing  Date by such  Selling  Stockholders  hereunder.
                  Assuming the  Underwriters are acquiring such Common Shares in
                  good  faith and  without  notice  of any  adverse  claim,  the
                  Underwriters will be the owners of such Common Shares so sold,
                  free and clear of all liens, equities,  claims,  restrictions,
                  security interests, voting trusts, or other encumbrances; and

                           (14)  No  transfer  tax is  required  to be  paid  in
                  connection  with the sale and delivery of the Common Shares to
                  the Underwriters hereunder.

                  In rendering such opinion, such counsel may rely as to matters
governed  by the laws of states or  jurisdictions  other  than  California,  the
General  Corporation  Law of the State of Delaware  and Article 8 of the Uniform
Commercial  Code as  enacted in the State of  Delaware,  or  federal  laws,  and
judicial  interpretations  of each of them, on opinions of local counsel,  as to
matters set forth in paragraph  (2), on an opinion of Holtzmann,  Wise & Shepard
and, as to matters of fact, on certificates of the Selling  Stockholders  and of
officers  of the  Company  and of  governmental  officials,  in which case their
opinion  is to  state  that  they are so doing  and  that the  Underwriters  are
justified  in  relying  on such  opinions  or  certificates  and  copies of said
opinions or certificates  are to be attached to the opinion.  In addition to the
matters set forth above,  counsel  rendering  the  foregoing  opinion shall also
include a statement to the effect  that,  although  they have not  independently
verified  the  accuracy  or  completeness  of the  statements  contained  in the
Registration  Statement and Prospectus,  based upon their  participation  in the
preparation  of the  Registration  Statement and Prospectus and their review and
discussion of the contents thereof, nothing has come to such counsel's attention
during the course of their representation that leads such counsel to believe (i)
that the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and each amendment or supplement
thereto  including the documents  incorporated by reference  therein (except for
the financial statements and schedules included therein as to which such counsel
need not express any statement) did not comply as to form as of their respective
filing dates with the Commission in all material respects with the requirements


                                      -23-


<PAGE>



of the Act and the Rules and  Regulations,  (ii) that (except for the  financial
statements  and  schedules  as to  which  such  counsel  need  not  express  any
statement) the  Registration  Statement and Prospectus  included  therein at the
time the  Registration  Statement  became  effective  did not contain any untrue
statement  of a material  fact or omit to state a material  fact  required to be
stated  therein or necessary to make the  statements  therein not misleading and
(iii) that (except for the financial  statements  and schedules as to which such
counsel  need  not  express  any  statement)  the  Registration   Statement  and
Prospectus  and any  amendment or supplement  thereto  effected on or before the
First  Closing  Date or the Second  Closing  Date,  as the case may be, does not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading.

                   (ii) Such  opinion or opinions of Wilson  Sonsini  Goodrich &
         Rosati,  counsel for the  Underwriters  dated the First Closing Date or
         the  Second  Closing  Date,  as the case may be,  with  respect  to the
         incorporation  of  the  Company,   the  sufficiency  of  all  corporate
         proceedings  and other legal matters  relating to this  Agreement,  the
         validity  of the Common  Shares,  the  Registration  Statement  and the
         Prospectus and other related matters as you may reasonably require, and
         the Company and the Selling  Stockholders  shall have furnished to such
         counsel such documents and shall have exhibited to them such papers and
         records as they may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling them
         to pass upon such  matters.  In  connection  with such  opinions,  such
         counsel may rely on  representations or certificates of officers of the
         Company, Selling Stockholders and governmental officials.

                  (iii) A certificate of the Company executed by the Chairman of
         the Board or President and the chief financial or accounting officer of
         the Company,  dated the First Closing Date or the Second  Closing Date,
         as the case may be, to the effect that:

                           (1) The representations and warranties of the Company
                  set forth in Section 2 of this  Agreement are true and correct
                  as of the date of this  Agreement  and as of the First Closing
                  Date or the Second  Closing  Date, as the case may be, and the
                  Company has complied with all the agreements and satisfied all
                  the  conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied on or
                  prior to such Closing Date;

                           (2)  The   Commission   has  not   issued  any  order
                  preventing  or  suspending  the use of the  Prospectus  or any
                  Preliminary  Prospectus  filed  as a part of the  Registration
                  Statement or any amendment  thereto;  no stop order suspending
                  the  effectiveness  of the  Registration  Statement  has  been
                  issued;  and to the best of the  knowledge  of the  respective
                  signers,  no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted
                  or are pending or contemplated under the Act;

                           (3) Each of the respective signers of the certificate
                  has  carefully  examined the  Registration  Statement  and the
                  Prospectus,   and  any  amendments  or   supplements   thereto
                  (including  any  documents  filed under the  Exchange  Act and
                  deemed to be incorporated  by reference into the  Prospectus);
                  in his opinion and to the best of his


                                      -24-

                  knowledge,  the Registration  Statement and the Prospectus and
                  any amendments or supplements  thereto  contain all statements
                  required to be stated  therein  regarding  the Company and its
                  subsidiaries;  and  at the  time  the  Registration  Statement
                  became effective,  neither the Registration  Statement nor the
                  Prospectus  nor any amendment or supplement  thereto  included
                  any untrue  statement  of a material  fact or omitted to state
                  any material fact  required to be stated  therein or necessary
                  to make the  statements  therein  not  misleading;  and at all
                  times  subsequent  to  the  Registration   Statement  becoming
                  effective,  up to and including the date of such  certificate,
                  neither the Registration Statement nor the Prospectus, nor any
                  amendment or supplement thereto, includes any untrue statement
                  of a  material  fact or  omits  to  state  any  material  fact
                  required  to be  stated  therein  or  necessary  to  make  the
                  statements  therein, in light of the circumstances under which
                  they were made, not misleading;

                           (4) Since the initial date on which the  Registration
                  Statement   was  filed,   no   agreement,   written  or  oral,
                  transaction  or event has occurred  which should have been set
                  forth in an  amendment to the  Registration  Statement or in a
                  supplement  to or  amendment of any  prospectus  which has not
                  been  disclosed in such a supplement or  amendment,  and there
                  has been no document  required to be filed under the  Exchange
                  Act that upon such filing  would be deemed to be  incorporated
                  by reference into the Prospectus that has not been so filed;

                           (5)   Since   the   respective   dates  as  of  which
                  information  is given in the  Registration  Statement  and the
                  Prospectus,  and except as disclosed in or contemplated by the
                  Prospectus,  there has not been any material adverse change or
                  a  development  involving  a  material  adverse  change in the
                  condition  (financial  or  otherwise),  business,  properties,
                  results of operations,  management or prospects of the Company
                  and its  subsidiaries;  and no legal or  governmental  action,
                  suit or  proceeding  is  pending  or  threatened  against  the
                  Company or any of its  subsidiaries  that is  material  to the
                  Company  and its  subsidiaries,  whether or not  arising  from
                  transactions in the ordinary  course of business,  or that may
                  adversely  affect  the   transactions   contemplated  by  this
                  Agreement;  since  such  dates  and  except  as so  disclosed,
                  neither the Company  nor any of its  subsidiaries  has entered
                  into any verbal or written agreement or other transaction that
                  is not in the  ordinary  course  of  business  or which  could
                  result in a  material  reduction  in the  future  revenues  or
                  earnings of the Company or incurred any material  liability or
                  obligation, direct, contingent or indirect, made any change in
                  its capital  stock  (except  pursuant to the  Company's  stock
                  option,  stock purchase or other stock plans  disclosed in the
                  Prospectus),  made any material  change in its short-term debt
                  or funded debt or repurchased or otherwise acquired any of the
                  Company's  capital stock;  and the Company has not declared or
                  paid any dividend,  or made any other  distribution,  upon its
                  outstanding capital stock payable to stockholders of record on
                  a date prior to the First Closing Date or Second Closing Date;
                  and

                           (6)   Since   the   respective   dates  as  of  which
                  information  is given in the  Registration  Statement  and the
                  Prospectus and except as disclosed in or  contemplated  by the
                  Prospectus,   the  Company  and  its  subsidiaries   have  not
                  sustained a material  loss or damage by strike,  fire,  flood,
                  windstorm,   accident  or  other  calamity   (whether  or  not
                  insured).

                   (iv) On the First Closing Date or the Second Closing Date, as
         the case may be, a  certificate,  dated such Closing Date and addressed
         to you,  signed by or on behalf of each of the Selling  Stockholders to
         the effect that the  representations  and  warranties  of such  Selling
         Stockholder in this  Agreement are true and correct,  as if made at and
         as of the First  Closing Date or the Second  Closing  Date, as the case
         may  be,  and  such  Selling  Stockholder  has  complied  with  all the
         agreements and satisfied all the conditions on his part to be performed
         or  satisfied  prior to the First  Closing  Date or the Second  Closing
         Date, as the case may be.

                   (v) On the date before this Agreement is executed and also on
         the First Closing Date and the Second  Closing Date a letter  addressed
         to you,  as the  Underwriters,  from  each  of  Price  Waterhouse  LLP,
         independent accountants, the first one from such independent accountant
         to be dated the day before the date of this  Agreement,  the second one
         from such independent accountant to be dated the First Closing Date and
         the third one (in the event of a Second Closing) from such  independent
         accountant  to be  dated  the  Second  Closing  Date,  each in form and
         substance satisfactory to you.

                   (vi) On or before the First Closing  Date,  letters from each
         of the Selling Stockholders, and each director and executive officer of
         the Company, in form and substance satisfactory to you, confirming that
         for a period of ninety  (90) days  after the first date that any Common
         Shares are released by you for sale to the public, such person will not
         sell or offer to sell,  contract to sell, or otherwise  sell or dispose
         of, any shares of Common Stock or any  securities  convertible  into or
         exchangeable for shares of Common Stock,  owned directly by such person
         or with respect to which such person has the power of disposition other
         than (i) as a bona fide gift or gifts where prior notice is provided to
         you and the donee agrees to be bound by the foregoing agreement or (ii)
         without  the prior  written  consent of  Montgomery  Securities,  which
         consent  may  be  withheld  at  the  sole   discretion   of  Montgomery
         Securities.  Each such person shall also agree and consent to the entry
         of stock transfer  instructions  with the Company's  transfer agent and
         registrar  against the  transfer of shares of Common Stock held by such
         person  or  entity,  unless  such  person  is in  compliance  with  the
         foregoing restrictions.


         All such  opinions,  certificates,  letters and  documents  shall be in
compliance with the provisions  hereof only if they are  satisfactory to you and
to Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati,  counsel for the Underwriters.  The Company
shall  furnish  you with  such  manually  signed  or  conformed  copies  of such
opinions,  certificates,  letters and documents as you request.  Any certificate

officer of the Company and delivered to the  Underwriters  or to counsel for the
Underwriters  shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the Company
to the Underwriters as to the statements made therein.

         If any  condition  to the  Underwriters'  obligations  hereunder  to be
satisfied  prior  to or at the  First  Closing  Date is not so  satisfied,  this
Agreement  at  your  election  will  terminate  upon   notification  by  you  as
Underwriters to the Company and the Selling  Stockholders  without  liability on
the part of any  Underwriter or the Company or the Selling  Stockholders  except
for the  expenses  to be paid or  reimbursed  by the  Company and by the Selling
Stockholders  pursuant  to  Sections  7 and 9 hereof  and  except to the  extent
provided in Section 11 hereof.


                                   SECTION 9

                    REIMBURSEMENT OF UNDERWRITERS' EXPENSES

         Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, if this Agreement shall be
terminated by you pursuant to Section 8, or if the sale to the  Underwriters  of
the  Common  Shares at the  First  Closing  is not  consummated  because  of any
refusal,  inability  or  failure  on the  part  of the  Company  or the  Selling
Stockholders  to perform any  agreement  herein or to comply with any  provision
hereof,  the Company  agrees to reimburse you upon demand for all  out-of-pocket
expenses that shall have been reasonably  incurred by you in connection with the
proposed  purchase and the sale of the Common Shares,  including but not limited
to fees and  disbursements  of  counsel,  printing  expenses,  travel  expenses,
postage,  telegraph  charges  and  telephone  charges  relating  directly to the
offering  contemplated by the Prospectus.  Any such termination shall be without
liability  of any party to any other party  except that the  provisions  of this
Section 9 and Sections 7 and 11 hereof shall at all times be effective and shall
apply.


                                   SECTION 10

                    EFFECTIVENESS OF REGISTRATION STATEMENT

         You, the Company and the Selling  Stockholders  will use your,  its and
their best efforts to cause the Registration  Statement to become effective,  to
prevent  the  issuance of any stop order  suspending  the  effectiveness  of the
Registration  Statement and, if such stop order be issued,  to obtain as soon as
possible the lifting thereof.

                                   SECTION 11

                                INDEMNIFICATION

         (a) The  Company  and,  subject to Section  11(f)  hereof,  each of the
Selling  Stockholders,  jointly  and  severally,  agree  to  indemnify  and hold
harmless each Underwriter and each person,  if any, who controls any Underwriter
within the meaning of the Act against any losses, claims,  damages,  liabilities
or expenses,  joint or several,  to which such  Underwriter or such  controlling
person may become subject,  under the Act, the Exchange Act, or other federal or
state statutory law or regulation,  or at common law or otherwise  (including in
settlement of any  litigation,  if such  settlement is effected with the written
consent of the Company), insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
expenses (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated  below) (i) arise out of
or are based in whole or in part upon any untrue  statement  or  alleged  untrue
statement of any material  fact  contained in the  Registration  Statement,  any
Preliminary Prospectus,  the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto,
or (ii)  arise  out of or are  based in whole or in part  upon the  omission  or
alleged  omission  to  state  in the  Registration  Statement,  any  Preliminary
Prospectus,  the  Prospectus or any  amendment or supplement  thereto a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements in any of
them not  misleading,  or (iii) arise out of or are based in whole or in part on
any  inaccuracy  in the  representations  and  warranties  of the Company or any
Selling  Stockholders  contained  herein or any  failure  of the  Company or any
Selling Stockholders to perform their respective  obligations hereunder or under
law; and will reimburse each  Underwriter and each such  controlling  person for
any legal and other  expenses as such expenses are  reasonably  incurred by such
Underwriter  or  such  controlling  person  in  connection  with  investigating,
defending,  settling,  compromising  or paying  any such  loss,  claim,  damage,
liability,  expense or action;  provided,  however, that (i) neither the Company
nor the Selling  Stockholders will be liable in any such case to the extent that
any such loss,  claim,  damage,  liability or expense  arises out of or is based
upon an untrue  statement  or alleged  untrue  statement  or omission or alleged
omission made in the Registration  Statement,  any Preliminary  Prospectus,  the
Prospectus  or any  amendment  or  supplement  thereto in  reliance  upon and in
conformity with the information  furnished to the Company  pursuant to Section 4
hereof,  (ii) with respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue
statement or omission made in any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus,  the
indemnity  agreement  contained in this paragraph shall not inure to the benefit
of any Underwriter (or any person  controlling such  Underwriter)  from whom the
person  asserting  any such losses,  claims,  damages,  liabilities  or expenses
purchased the Common Shares which are the subject thereof to the extent that any
such loss,  claim,  damage,  liability or expense results from the fact that the
untrue  statement  or  omission  has been  corrected  in the  Prospectus  or any
amendment or supplement  thereto but a copy of the Prospectus,  the amendment or
supplement (as the case may be) was not sent or given to such person at or prior
to the written  confirmation of the sale of such Common Shares to such person in
any case where such delivery is required by the Act, and if the untrue statement
or omission has been corrected in the Prospectus, unless such failure to deliver
the  Prospectus,  the amendment or the  supplement (as the case may be) was as a
result of noncompliance  by the Company with the obligations  under Section 6(a)
hereof,   (iii)  no   Selling   Stockholder   shall  be   required   to  provide
indemnification  hereunder to an  Underwriter  with respect to any loss,  claim,
damage, liability or expense until such


                                      -28-


<PAGE>



Underwriter or such control person seeking indemnification shall have first made
a demand on the Company with respect to such loss, claim,  damage,  liability or
expense,  and the Company  shall have either  rejected  such demand or failed to
make such  requested  payment  within  ninety  (90) days  after  receipt of such
demand, and (iv) each Selling  Stockholder  required to provide  indemnification
hereunder  shall only be liable under this Section  11(a) for the  proportion of
any such losses,  claims,  damages,  liabilities or expenses which the number of
Common  Shares sold by such  Selling  Stockholder  bears to the total  number of
Common  Shares  sold  hereunder  by all such  Selling  Stockholders  required to
provide indemnification  hereunder. The Company and the Selling Stockholders may
agree, as among  themselves and without  limiting the rights of the Underwriters
under this Agreement, as to their respective amounts of such liability for which
they each shall be responsible.

         In addition to their other  obligations  under this Section 11(a),  the
Company and  (subject to the  provisions  of Section  11(f)  hereof) the Selling
Stockholders  jointly and severally agree that, as an interim measure during the
pendency  of any  claim,  action,  investigation,  inquiry  or other  proceeding
arising out of or based upon any statement or omission, or any alleged statement
or omission,  or any  inaccuracy in the  representations  and  warranties of the
Company  or  any  Selling  Stockholders  herein  or  failure  to  perform  their
respective  obligations  hereunder,  all as  described  in  this  Section  11(a)
(subject to the  provisions of Section 11(f)  hereof),  they will reimburse each
Underwriter  on a quarterly  basis for all  reasonable  legal or other  expenses
incurred in connection with  investigating or defending any such claim,  action,
investigation,  inquiry or other  proceeding,  notwithstanding  the absence of a
judicial  determination as to the propriety and  enforceability of the Company's
or the Selling  Stockholders'  obligation to reimburse each Underwriter for such
expenses and the possibility that such payments might later be held to have been
improper  by a court of  competent  jurisdiction.  To the  extent  that any such
interim reimbursement payment is so held to have been improper, each Underwriter
shall  promptly  return it to the Company  together  with  interest,  compounded
daily,  determined on the basis of the prime rate (or other  commercial  lending
rate for borrowers of the highest credit  standing)  announced from time to time
by Bank of America NT&SA, San Francisco, California (the "Prime Rate"). Any such
interim  reimbursement  payments  which  are not made to an  Underwriter  within
thirty  (30) days of a request  for  reimbursement,  shall bear  interest at the
Prime  Rate  from  the  date  of  such  request.  The  Company  and  each of the
Underwriters  agree  with  the  Selling  Stockholders  that  any  claim  of such
Underwriter  against the Selling  Stockholders  for the  advancement of expenses
shall first be sought by such Underwriter to be satisfied in full by the Company
and,  shall be  satisfied  by the Selling  Stockholders  only to the extent such
claim has not been satisfied in full by the Company within the foregoing  thirty
(30) day period  following the date requested for payment in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement and subject to the limitations on liability set forth in
Section  11(f)  hereof.  This  indemnity  agreement  will be in  addition to any
liability which the Company or the Selling Stockholders may otherwise have.

         (b) Each  Underwriter  will  severally  indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration
Statement,  the Selling  Stockholders and each person,  if any, who controls the
Company or any Selling  Stockholder  within the meaning of the Act,  against any
losses,  claims,  damages,  liabilities or expenses to which the Company, or any
such director,  officer,  Selling  Stockholder or controlling  person may become
subject, under the Act,


                                      -29-


<PAGE>



the Exchange Act, or other federal or state  statutory law or regulation,  or at
common law or otherwise  (including  in settlement  of any  litigation,  if such
settlement is effected with the written consent of such Underwriter), insofar as
such losses,  claims,  damages,  liabilities  or expenses (or actions in respect
thereof  as  contemplated  below)  arise out of or are based  upon any untrue or
alleged  untrue  statement of any material  fact  contained in the  Registration
Statement,  any  Preliminary  Prospectus,  the  Prospectus,  or any amendment or
supplement  thereto,  or arise out of or are based upon the  omission or alleged
omission  to state  therein a material  fact  required  to be stated  therein or
necessary to make the  statements  therein not  misleading,  in each case to the
extent,  but only to the extent,  that such untrue  statement or alleged  untrue
statement  or  omission  or  alleged  omission  was  made  in  the  Registration
Statement,  any  Preliminary  Prospectus,  the  Prospectus,  or any amendment or
supplement  thereto,  in reliance  upon and in conformity  with the  information
furnished to the Company  pursuant to Section 4 hereof;  and will  reimburse the
Company,  or any such  director,  officer,  Selling  Stockholder  or controlling
person for any legal and other expense  reasonably  incurred by the Company,  or
any such  director,  officer,  Selling  Stockholder  or  controlling  person  in
connection with investigating,  defending, settling,  compromising or paying any
such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action. In addition to its other
obligations under this Section 11(b), each Underwriter severally agrees that, as
an interim  measure  during the  pendency of any claim,  action,  investigation,
inquiry  or other  proceeding  arising  out of or based  upon any  statement  or
omission, or any alleged statement or omission,  described in this Section 11(b)
which  relates to  information  furnished  to the Company  pursuant to Section 4
hereof,  it will  reimburse  the Company (and,  to the extent  applicable,  each
officer,  director,  controlling  person or Selling  Stockholder) on a quarterly
basis for all  reasonable  legal or other expenses  incurred in connection  with
investigating  or defending any such claim,  action,  investigation,  inquiry or
other proceeding,  notwithstanding the absence of a judicial determination as to
the propriety and  enforceability of the  Underwriters'  obligation to reimburse
the Company (and, to the extent applicable, each officer, director,  controlling
person or Selling  Stockholder)  for such expenses and the possibility that such
payments  might  later be held to have  been  improper  by a court of  competent
jurisdiction.  To the extent that any such interim  reimbursement  payment is so
held to have been  improper,  the Company (and, to the extent  applicable,  each
officer,  director,  controlling  person or Selling  Stockholder) shall promptly
return  it  to  the  Underwriters  together  with  interest,  compounded  daily,
determined  on the  basis of the  Prime  Rate.  Any such  interim  reimbursement
payments which are not made to the Company (and, to the extent applicable,  each
officer, director, controlling person or Selling Stockholder) within thirty (30)
days of a request for reimbursement,  shall bear interest at the Prime Rate from
the date of such request.  This  indemnity  agreement will be in addition to any
liability which such Underwriter may otherwise have.

         (c) Promptly after receipt by an  indemnified  party under this Section
of notice of the commencement of any action,  such indemnified  party will, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying  party under this
Section,  notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement  thereof;
but the  omission so to notify the  indemnifying  party will not relieve it from
any liability  which it may have to any  indemnified  party for  contribution or
otherwise  under the  indemnity  agreement  contained  in this Section or to the
extent it is not prejudiced as a proximate  result of such failure.  In case any
such action is brought against any indemnified party and such


                                      -30-


<PAGE>



indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party,
the  indemnifying  party will be entitled to participate  in, and, to the extent
that  it may  wish,  jointly  with  all  other  indemnifying  parties  similarly
notified, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably  satisfactory to
such indemnified party; provided,  however, if the defendants in any such action
include  both  the  indemnified  party  and  the  indemnifying   party  and  the
indemnified  party shall have reasonably  concluded that there may be a conflict
between the positions of the  indemnifying  party and the  indemnified  party in
conducting  the defense of any such  action or that there may be legal  defenses
available to it and/or other  indemnified  parties which are  different  from or
additional to those available to the indemnifying  party, the indemnified  party
or parties shall have the right to select separate  counsel to assume such legal
defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of
such indemnified party or parties.  Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying
party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense of such
action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel,  the indemnifying party
will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section for any legal or
other expenses  subsequently  incurred by such  indemnified  party in connection
with the defense  thereof unless (i) the  indemnified  party shall have employed
such counsel in connection  with the  assumption of legal defenses in accordance
with the proviso to the next preceding  sentence (it being understood,  however,
that the  indemnifying  party shall not be liable for the  expenses of more than
one separate counsel, approved by the Underwriters in the case of paragraph (a),
representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such action) or (ii) the
indemnifying  party shall not have employed counsel  reasonably  satisfactory to
the  indemnified  party to represent the  indemnified  party within a reasonable
time after notice of commencement of the action, in each of which cases the fees
and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party.

         (d) If the indemnification  provided for in this Section 11 is required
by its  terms  but is for any  reason  held to be  unavailable  to or  otherwise
insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified  party under paragraphs (a), (b) or
(c) in respect of any losses, claims, damages,  liabilities or expenses referred
to herein,  then each  applicable  indemnifying  party shall  contribute  to the
amount  paid or payable  by such  indemnified  party as a result of any  losses,
claims,  damages,  liabilities  or  expenses  referred  to  herein  (i) in  such
proportion as is  appropriate to reflect the relative  benefits  received by the
Company,  the Selling Stockholders and the Underwriters from the offering of the
Common  Shares or (ii) if the  allocation  provided  by clause  (i) above is not
permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not
only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative
fault  of  the  Company,  the  Selling  Stockholders  and  the  Underwriters  in
connection   with  the   statements   or  omissions  or   inaccuracies   in  the
representations  and warranties  herein which  resulted in such losses,  claims,
damages,  liabilities  or  expenses,  as well as any  other  relevant  equitable
considerations.  The respective  relative benefits received by the Company,  the
Selling  Stockholders  and the  Underwriters  shall be  deemed to be in the same
proportion, in the case of the Company and the Selling Stockholders as the total
price paid to the Company and to the Selling Stockholders, respectively, for the
Common Shares sold by them to the Underwriters (net of underwriting  commissions
but  before  deducting  expenses),  and in the case of the  Underwriters  as the
underwriting  commissions  received  by them bears to the total of such  amounts
paid  to the  Company  and to  the  Selling  Stockholders  and  received  by the
Underwriters as under-


                                      -31-


<PAGE>



writing commissions. The relative fault of the Company, the Selling Stockholders
and the  Underwriters  shall be  determined by reference to, among other things,
whether  the  untrue or  alleged  untrue  statement  of a  material  fact or the
omission or alleged  omission to state a material fact or the  inaccurate or the
alleged  inaccurate   representation  and/or  warranty  relates  to  information
supplied by the Company,  the Selling  Stockholders or the  Underwriters and the
parties'  relative intent,  knowledge,  access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such  statement or omission.  The amount paid or payable by a
party as a result of the  losses,  claims,  damages,  liabilities  and  expenses
referred  to above shall be deemed to include,  subject to the  limitations  set
forth in  subparagraph  (c) of this  Section  11,  any  legal  or other  fees or
expenses  reasonably  incurred by such party in connection with investigating or
defending any action or claim.  The provisions set forth in subparagraph  (c) of
this Section 11 with respect to notice of commencement of any action shall apply
if a claim for contribution is to be made under this subparagraph (d); provided,
however,  that no additional notice shall be required with respect to any action
for  which  notice  has  been  given  under  subparagraph  (c) for  purposes  of
indemnification.  The Company,  the Selling  Stockholders  and the  Underwriters
agree that it would not be just and equitable if  contribution  pursuant to this
Section  11  were  determined  solely  by  pro  rata  allocation  (even  if  the
Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method
of  allocation  which  does not take  account  of the  equitable  considerations
referred  to  in  the  immediately  preceding  paragraph.   Notwithstanding  the
provisions  of this Section 11, no  Underwriter  shall be required to contribute
any  amount  in  excess of the  amount  of the  total  underwriting  commissions
received by such  Underwriter in connection with the Common Shares  underwritten
by it and distributed to the public and a Selling Stockholder's  liability shall
be subject to the provisions set forth in Section 11(f) hereof. No person guilty
of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act)
shall be  entitled  to  contribution  from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent  misrepresentation.   The  Underwriters'  obligations  to  contribute
pursuant  to this  Section 11 are  several  in  proportion  to their  respective
underwriting commitments and not joint.

         (e) It is agreed that any  controversy  arising out of the operation of
the interim  reimbursement  arrangements  set forth in Sections  11(a) and 11(b)
hereof,  including the amounts of any requested  reimbursement  payments and the
method of determining  such amounts,  shall be settled by arbitration  conducted
under the provisions of the  Constitution and Rules of the Board of Governors of
the New York  Stock  Exchange,  Inc.  or  pursuant  to the  Code of  Arbitration
Procedure of the NASD.  Any such  arbitration  must be commenced by service of a
written  demand for  arbitration  or written  notice of intention to  arbitrate,
therein  electing the  arbitration  tribunal.  In the event the party  demanding
arbitration  does not make such  designation of an arbitration  tribunal in such
demand  or  notice,  then the  party  responding  to said  demand  or  notice is
authorized  to do so. Such an  arbitration  would be limited to the operation of
the interim  reimbursement  provisions  contained  in  Sections  11(a) and 11(b)
hereof and would not resolve the  ultimate  propriety or  enforceability  of the
obligation  to reimburse  expenses  which is created by the  provisions  of such
Sections 11(a) and 11(b) hereof.

         (f)  Notwithstanding  anything  else in this Section 11 to the contrary
(i) the aggregate  liability of each Selling  Stockholder  for  indemnification,
contribution, reimbursement of expenses


                                      -32-


<PAGE>



or otherwise under this Section 11 shall not exceed the aggregate  amount of the
net proceeds  received by such Selling  Stockholder  from the sale of the Common
Shares by such Selling  Stockholder  to the  Underwriters  pursuant to the terms
hereof  and  (ii)  the  aggregate  liability  of the  Selling  Stockholders  for
indemnification, contribution, reimbursement of expenses or otherwise under this
Section 11 shall not exceed $3,000,000.


                                   SECTION 12

                            DEFAULT OF UNDERWRITERS

         It shall be a condition to this  Agreement and the  obligations  of the
Company and the  Selling  Stockholders  to sell and  deliver  the Common  Shares
hereunder,  and of each  Underwriter to purchase the Common Shares in the manner
as described  herein,  that,  except as hereinafter in this paragraph  provided,
each of the Underwriters shall purchase and pay for all the Common Shares agreed
to be purchased by such Underwriter hereunder upon tender to the Underwriters of
all such shares in  accordance  with the terms  hereof.  If any  Underwriter  or
Underwriters default in their obligations to purchase Common Shares hereunder on
either  the  First or Second  Closing  Date and the  aggregate  number of Common
Shares which such defaulting  Underwriter or  Underwriters  agreed but failed to
purchase on such  Closing Date does not exceed 10% of the total number of Common
Shares which the  Underwriters  are  obligated to purchase on such Closing Date,
the nondefaulting  Underwriters shall be obligated  severally,  in proportion to
their respective commitments hereunder, to purchase the Common Shares which such
defaulting  Underwriters  agreed but failed to purchase on such Closing Date. If
any Underwriter or  Underwriters  so default and the aggregate  number of Common
Shares  with  respect  to which  such  default  occurs  is more  than the  above
percentage and arrangements satisfactory to the Underwriters and the Company for
the  purchase  of such  Common  Shares  by other  persons  are not  made  within
forty-eight (48) hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without
liability  on the part of any  nondefaulting  Underwriter  or the Company or the
Selling  Stockholders  except for the expenses to be paid by the Company and the
Selling  Stockholders  pursuant  to  Section 7 hereof  and  except to the extent
provided in Section 11 hereof.

         In the event that  Common  Shares to which a default  relates are to be
purchased by the nondefaulting  Underwriters or by another party or parties, the
Underwriters or the Company shall have the right to postpone the First or Second
Closing  Date,  as the case may be, for not more than five (5) business  days in
order that the necessary changes in the Registration  Statement,  Prospectus and
any other documents, as well as any other arrangements, may be effected. As used
in this Agreement, the term "Underwriter" includes any person substituted for an
Underwriter  under  this  Section.  Nothing  herein  will  relieve a  defaulting
Underwriter from liability for its default.

                                   SECTION 13

                                 EFFECTIVE DATE

         This Agreement shall become effective  immediately as to Sections 7, 9,
11, 14 and 16 and, as to all other  provisions,  (i) if at the time of execution
of this Agreement the Registration  Statement has not become effective,  at 2:00
P.M.,   California   time,   on  the  first  full  business  day  following  the
effectiveness of the Registration  Statement or (ii) if at the time of execution
of this Agreement the  Registration  Statement has been declared  effective,  at
2:00 P.M., California time, on the first full business day following the date of
execution  of this  Agreement;  but this  Agreement  shall  nevertheless  become
effective  at  such  earlier  time  after  the  Registration  Statement  becomes
effective as you may  determine on and by notice to the Company or by release of
any of the  Common  Shares  for sale to the  public.  For the  purposes  of this
Section 13, the Common  Shares shall be deemed to have been so released upon the
release for  publication of any newspaper  advertisement  relating to the Common
Shares or upon the release by you of telegrams  (i) advising  Underwriters  that
the Common  Shares are released for public  offering or (ii) offering the Common
Shares for sale to securities dealers, whichever may occur first.


                                   SECTION 14

                                  TERMINATION

         Without limiting the right to terminate this Agreement  pursuant to any
other provision hereof:

         (a) This  Agreement  may be  terminated by the Company by notice to you
and the Selling  Stockholders or by you by notice to the Company and the Selling
Stockholders at any time prior to the time this Agreement shall become effective
as to all its provisions, and any such termination shall be without liability on
the part of the Company or the Selling  Stockholders to any Underwriter  (except
for the  expenses  to be paid  or  reimbursed  by the  Company  and the  Selling
Stockholders  pursuant  to  Sections  7 and 9 hereof  and  except to the  extent
provided  in  Section 11 hereof)  or of any  Underwriter  to the  Company or the
Selling Stockholders (except to the extent provided in Section 11 hereof).

         (b) This  Agreement  may also be  terminated  by you prior to the First
Closing Date by notice to the Company (i) if  additional  material  governmental
restrictions,  not in force  and  effect  on the date  hereof,  shall  have been
imposed upon trading in securities  generally or minimum or maximum prices shall
have  been  generally  established  on the New  York  Stock  Exchange  or on the
American  Stock  Exchange  or in the over the  counter  market by the  NASD,  or
trading  in  securities  generally  shall  have been  suspended  on either  such
Exchange or in the over the  counter  market by the NASD,  or a general  banking
moratorium  shall  have been  established  by  federal,  New York or  California
authorities,  (ii) if an  outbreak  of major  hostilities  or other  national or
international  calamity or any  substantial  change in  political,  financial or
economic conditions shall have occurred



                                      -34-


<PAGE>



or shall have accelerated or escalated to such an extent, as, in the judgment of
the  Underwriters,  to affect adversely the  marketability of the Common Shares,
(iii) if any adverse event shall have occurred or shall exist which makes untrue
or incorrect in any material  respect any statement or information  contained in
the  Registration  Statement  or  Prospectus  or which is not  reflected  in the
Registration Statement or Prospectus but should be reflected therein in order to
make the  statements  or  information  contained  therein not  misleading in any
material  respect,  or (iv) if there  shall be any  action,  suit or  proceeding
pending or threatened,  or there shall have been any  development or prospective
development  involving  particularly the business or properties or securities of
the Company or any of its subsidiaries or the transactions  contemplated by this
Agreement, which, in the reasonable judgment of the Underwriters, may materially
and  adversely   affect  the  Company's   business  or  earnings  and  makes  it
impracticable or inadvisable to offer or sell the Common Shares. Any termination
pursuant  to this  subsection  (b) shall  without  liability  on the part of any
Underwriter  to the  Company or the Selling  Stockholders  or on the part of the
Company or the Selling  Stockholders to any Underwriter  (except for expenses to
be paid or  reimbursed by the Company and the Selling  Stockholders  pursuant to
Sections 7 and 9 hereof and except to the extent provided in Section 11 hereof.


                                   SECTION 15

            FAILURE OF THE SELLING STOCKHOLDERS TO SELL AND DELIVER

         If one or more  of the  Selling  Stockholders  shall  fail to sell  and
deliver to the  Underwriters  the Common Shares to be sold and delivered by such
Selling Stockholders at the First or Second Closing Date under the terms of this
Agreement, then the Underwriters may at their option, by written notice from you
to the Company and the Selling Stockholders, either (i) terminate this Agreement
without any liability on the part of any  Underwriter  or, except as provided in
Sections 7, 9 and 11 hereof,  the Company or the  Selling  Stockholders  or (ii)
purchase the shares which the Company and other Selling Stockholders have agreed
to sell and  deliver  in  accordance  with the terms  hereof.  In the event of a
failure  by one or more of the  Selling  Stockholders  to sell  and  deliver  as
referred to in this  Section,  either you or the Company shall have the right to
postpone  the  applicable  Closing  Date for a period  not  exceeding  seven (7)
business days in order that the necessary changes in the Registration Statement,
Prospectus and any other documents,  as well as any other  arrangements,  may be
effected.


                                   SECTION 16

              REPRESENTATIONS AND INDEMNITIES TO SURVIVE DELIVERY

         The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and
other statements of the Company,  of its officers,  of the Selling  Stockholders
and of the several  Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement
will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any


                                      -35-


<PAGE>



investigation  made by or on behalf of any  Underwriter or the Company or any of
its or their partners,  officers or directors or any controlling  person, or the
Selling  Stockholders,  as the case may be,  and will  survive  delivery  of and
payment  for the  Common  Shares  sold  hereunder  and any  termination  of this
Agreement.


                                   SECTION 17

                                    NOTICES

Ladies and Gentlemen:


   At your request,  we have examined the  Registration  Statement  filed by you
with the Securities and  Exchange  Commission  ("SEC") on November 15, 1994 (the
"Registration   Statement")  in  connection  with  the  registration  under  the
Securities  Act of 1933,  as amended,  of up to 3,910,000  shares of your Common
Stock (the  "Stock"),  up to 610,000  shares of which are  presently  issued and
outstanding  and will be sold by  certain  Selling  Stockholders  (the  "Selling
Stockholders").  The  Stock  is to be sold  to the  underwriters  named  in said
Registration Statement for resale to the public.

   As your counsel,  we have examined the proceedings taken by you in connection
with the issuance and sale by you of up to 3,810,000 shares of the Stock and the
sale by the Selling Stockholders of up to 610,000 shares of the Stock.

   It is our  opinion  that the up to  610,000  shares of the Stock that will be
sold by the Selling  Stockholders  are legally and validly  issued and are fully
paid and  nonassessable,  and that the up to 3,810,000  shares of the Stock that
may be issued and sold by you, when issued and sold in the manner referred to in
the Registration  Statement,  will be legally and validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.

   We  consent to the use of this  opinion  as an  exhibit  to the  Registration
Statement  and  further  consent  to all  references  to us in the  Registration
Statement,  the  Prospectus  constituting  a part  thereof  and  any  amendments
thereto.

                                            Very truly yours,


                                            Fenwick & West






                                                                    EXHIBIT 23.1
                       CONSENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

We  hereby  consent  to the  use in the  Prospectus  constituting  part  of this
Registration  Statement on Form S-3 of our report dated April 27, 1994  relating

in such  Prospectus.  We also consent to the  incorporation  by reference in the
Prospectus  constituting part of this Registration  Statement on Form S-3 of our
report  dated  April  27,  1994  appearing  on  page  12  of  Integrated  Device
Technology,  Inc.'s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 3, 1994.
We also  consent to the  references  to us under the  heading  "Experts,"  "Risk
