           UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of
operations for the year ended December 31, 1999 gives effect to the acquisition
by Benchmark of all the outstanding capital stock of AVEX Electronics, Inc. and
its subsidiaries and certain affiliates ("AVEX") and the disposition of its
Swedish operations as if they had occurred as of January 1, 1999. The following
unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 gives effect to the disposition of its Swedish
operations as if it had occurred as of January 1, 1999. The following unaudited
pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2000 gives effect to
the disposition of the Swedish operations as if it had occurred on that date.
The results of operations of the acquired AVEX business are included in
Benchmark's historical results for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and the
financial position of the acquired AVEX business is reflected in Benchmark's
historical balance sheet as of March 31, 2000.

     The AVEX acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations
are based on the historical financial statements of Benchmark and AVEX and the
estimates and assumptions in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed
combined statements of operations. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined
statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1999 had been previously
filed with Benchmark's Current Report on Form 8-K dated June 2, 2000. The pro
forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1999 presented
herein supersedes the pro forma statement of operations filed in the Form 8-K of
Benchmark dated June 2, 2000.

     On July 12, 2000, Benchmark entered into a definitive agreement to sell its
Swedish operations, constituting inventories and fixed assets, at the net book
value of these assets.

     The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of Benchmark and
AVEX and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and
Results of Operations" of Benchmark. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined
financial statements do not purport to represent what Benchmark's results of
operations or financial position would actually have been if the AVEX
acquisition and the disposition of the Swedish operations had been consummated
on the indicated dates, nor are they necessarily indicative of Benchmark's
results of operations or financial position for any future period.

                          NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
                   CONDENSED COMBINED STATMENTS OF OPERATIONS

Adjustments have been made to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined
statements of operations to reflect the following:

(a)  Includes the historical results of operations of AVEX for the period to
     August 24, 1999, the consummation date of the acquisition.

(b)  To eliminate the historical costs related to (i) certain redundant
     executive headquarter costs; (ii) the termination of intercompany services
     previously provided by the Seller to AVEX under an intercompany arrangement
     that included fees based on the estimated utilization of Seller's
     resources; (iii) AVEX's domestic defined benefit pension plan, which plan
     and the obligations thereunder are not being continued by Benchmark; offset
     by (iv) the costs that Benchmark will incur to replace the Seller's
     intercompany services arrangement. A summary of such adjustments follows
     (in thousands):

</TABLE>
(c) To record amortization of goodwill over an estimated useful life of 15
    years.

(d) To eliminate adjustments to the 1998 write down of certain assets related to
    AVEX's San Jose, California facility, which were not acquired by Benchmark,
    included in AVEX's historical financial statements.

(e) To reduce interest income related to cash balances utilized in funding a
    portion of the AVEX acquisition.

(f) To eliminate intercompany interest expense with the Seller and interest on
    AVEX notes payable not assumed under the Stock Purchase Agreement.

(g) To record amortization of debt issuance costs over the life of the
    applicable debt instruments.

(h) To record interest expense at 7.75%, 7.75%, and 6.0% on the amounts
    outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loan, and the Notes,
    respectively based on interest rates in effect upon consummation of the
    acquisition. A change in the interest rate of 1/8 of a percent would result
    in a change in annual interest expense related to the amounts outstanding
    under the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan of approximately $227,000.

(i) To record income tax adjustments related to the above pro forma adjustments.

(j) To adjust AVEX historical income tax expense as if AVEX was included in the
    consolidated federal income tax return of Benchmark. In the historical
    combined financial statements of AVEX, federal income taxes were provided as
    if AVEX filed a separate income tax return.
