          (b) Salary and Benefits. During the Employment Period, in consideration for the Executive agreeing to devote his full business time and attention to the affairs of the Company, the Company will pay the Executive a base salary at the rate of $605,000 per annum or at such higher rate as the Board designates in its sole discretion from time to time (“Base Salary”), payable in installments consistent with the Company’s normal payroll schedule, subject to applicable withholding and other taxes. In addition to the Base Salary payable to Executive pursuant to this §2(b), the Executive will be entitled to the following benefits during the Employment Period:

               (i) the Executive will be entitled to participate in all medical and hospitalization, group life insurance, and any and all other fringe benefit plans as are from time to time provided by the Company to its executives;

               (ii) the Executive will be entitled to a maximum of four weeks paid vacation each year (paid an Executive’s base salary), accrued up to a maximum cap of 320 hours, after

               which Executive shall not accrue any additional vacation until Executive takes vacation; provided, however, that in no event may a vacation be taken at a time when to do so could, in the reasonable judgment of the Chairman of the Board, adversely affect the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries; and

               (iii) the Executive will be entitled to reimbursement for reasonable business expenses (excluding commuting expenses) incurred by the Executive (subject to submission of appropriate substantiation by the Executive).

The Executive’s accrual of or participation in plans providing for benefits will cease on the Termination Date, and the Executive will be entitled to accrued benefits pursuant to such plans only as provided in such plans or as required by law; provided, however, that the Executive will receive, in addition to his severance pay pursuant to §2(d) below, the amount of any accrued benefits in respect of vacation, holiday, sick leave, or other leave unused as of the Termination Date.

          (c) Services. During the Employment Period, the Executive will serve as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and shall have the normal duties, responsibilities and authority of such office, subject to the power of the Chairman of the Board to reasonably expand or reasonably limit such duties, responsibilities and authority and to override actions of the Executive. The Executive shall serve on the Board for so long as the Executive is President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The Executive will devote his best efforts and substantially all of his business time and attention (except for vacation periods and reasonable periods of illness or other incapacity) to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and shall perform the duties and carry out the responsibilities assigned to him, to the best of his ability, in a diligent, trustworthy, businesslike and efficient manner for the purpose of advancing the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

          (b) Nonsolicitation. During the Employment Period and for a period of 12 months thereafter or the Severance Period, whichever is longer, the Executive will not, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit for employment or employ or engage as an agent or independent contractor (or attempt to solicit for employment or employ or engage as an agent or independent contractor), for himself or on behalf of any Person (other than the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), any employee, agent or independent contractor of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any Person who was an employee, agent or independent contractor of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries at any time during the one-year period preceding the later of (A) the date of this Agreement and (B) the date of such solicitation, employment, engagement or attempted solicitation, employment or engagement, (ii) encourage any such employee to leave his or her employment with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (iii) encourage any such agent or independent contractor to terminate his, her or its engagement with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

To the extent that any of the covenants provided for in this §7 may later be deemed by a court to be too broad to be enforced with respect to its duration or with respect to any particular activity or geographic area, the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce the duration or scope of the provision, and to add or delete specific words or phrases to or from the provision. The provision as modified shall then be enforced. Further, to the extent a court issues an injunctive relief under this Section 9 of the Agreement, the covenant shall be extended by the period of time from the date of the violation of the covenants herein until the issuance of the injunctive relief.

Except for the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns, nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement is intended, or will be construed, to confer upon or give any person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

     20. Survival. Sections 3, 4 and 5, 7 through 19 (inclusive), this §20 and §21 shall survive and continue in full force and in accordance with their terms notwithstanding any termination of the Employment Period.

     21. Dispute Resolution. If the parties should have a material dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the parties’ respective rights and duties hereunder, then the parties will resolve such dispute in the following manner: (a) either party may at any time deliver to the other a written dispute notice setting forth a brief description of the issue for which such notice initiates the dispute resolution mechanism contemplated by this §21, (b) during the 30 day period following the delivery of the notice described in clause (a) above, appropriate representatives of the various parties will meet and seek to resolve the disputed issue through negotiation, (c) if representatives of the parties are unable to resolve the disputed issue through negotiation, then within 10 days after the period described in clause (b) above, the parties will refer the issue (to the exclusion of a court of law) to final and binding arbitration in Santa Ana, California in accordance with the then existing rules (the “Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof; provided, however, that the law applicable to any controversy shall be the law of the State of California, regardless of principles of conflicts of laws. In any arbitration pursuant to this Agreement, (x) discovery shall be allowed and governed by the California Code of Civil Procedure and (y) the award or decision shall be rendered by a majority of the members of a Board of Arbitration consisting of three members, one of whom shall be appointed by the Executive, one of whom shall be appointed by the Company and the third of whom shall be the chairman of the panel and be appointed by mutual agreement of said two party-appointed arbitrators. In the event of failure of said two arbitrators to agree within 30 days after the commencement of the arbitration proceeding upon the appointment of the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with the Rules. In the event that either party shall fail to appoint an arbitrator within 10 days after the commencement of the arbitration proceedings, such arbitrator and the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with the Rules. Nothing set forth above shall be interpreted to prevent the parties from agreeing in writing to submit any dispute to a single arbitrator in lieu of a three member Board of Arbitration. Upon the completion of the selection of the Board of Arbitration (or if the parties agree otherwise in writing, a single arbitrator), an award or decision shall be rendered within no more than 30 days. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the request by either party for preliminary or permanent injunctive relief, whether prohibitive or mandatory, shall not be subject to arbitration and may be adjudicated only by the courts permitted under §15 above.

     22. Other Terms Relating to Section 409A.

          (a) Except as provided in §22(b), amounts payable under this Agreement following Executive’s termination of employment, other than those expressly payable on a deferred or installment basis or as reimbursement of expenses, will be paid as promptly as practicable after such a termination of employment and, in any event, within 2 ¹/2 months after the end of the year in which employment terminates and amounts payable as reimbursements of expenses to the Executive must be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such expense was incurred.

          (b) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if (i) on the date of termination of Executive’s employment with the Company or a subsidiary, any of the Company’s stock is publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise (within the meaning of Section

409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”)), (ii) if Executive is determined to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code, (iii) the payments exceed the amounts permitted to be paid pursuant to Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) and (iv) such delay is required to avoid the imposition of the tax set forth in Section 409A(a)(1) of the Code, as a result of such termination, the Executive would receive any payment that, absent the application of this Section 9(b), would be subject to interest and additional tax imposed pursuant to Section 409A(a) of the Code as a result of the application of Section 409A(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then no such payment shall be payable prior to the date that is the earliest of (A) six months after the Executive’s termination date, (B) the Executive’s death or (C) such other date as will cause such payment not to be subject to such interest and additional tax (with a catch-up payment equal to the sum of all amounts that have been delayed to be made as of the date of the initial payment).

          (c) It is the intention of the parties that payments or benefits payable under this Agreement not be subject to the additional tax imposed pursuant to Section 409A of the Code. To the extent such potential payments or benefits could become subject to such Section, the parties shall cooperate to amend this Agreement with the goal of giving the Executive the economic benefits described herein in a manner that does not result in such tax being imposed.

          (d) A termination of employment under this Agreement shall be deemed to occur only in circumstances that would constitute a separation from service for purposes of Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-1(h)(1)(ii).

          (e) Wherever payments under this Agreement are to be made in installments, each such installment shall be deemed to be a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A.

ATTACHMENT A: RELEASE AND COVENANT NOT TO SUE

1. Release. I, Kenton K. Alder, do hereby release and discharge TTM Technologies, Inc., its affiliates and subsidiaries, and each of their stockholders, officers, directors, members, managers, partners, employees, representatives, agents and affiliates (collectively, the “Employer Affiliates”, and each an “Employer Affiliate”) from any and all claims, demands or liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown or suspected to exist by me, which I ever had or may now have against any Employer Affiliate, from the beginning of time to the Effective Date of the letter (including its attachments), including, without limitation, any claims, demands or liabilities in connection with my employment, including wrongful termination, constructive discharge, breach of express or implied contract, unpaid wages, benefits, attorneys fees or pursuant to any federal, state, or local employment laws, regulations, or executive orders prohibiting inter alia, age, race, color, sex, national origin, religion, handicap, veteran status, and disability discrimination, including, without limitation, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended by the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Civil Rights Act of 1866, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, the Prudence Kay Poppink Act, the California Family Rights Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, any state statute relating to employee benefits or pensions, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. This Release does not waive rights or claims that may arise after the Effective Date. I fully understand that if any fact with respect to which this Release is executed is found hereafter to be other than or different from the facts in that connection believed by me to be true, I expressly accept and assume the risk of such possible difference in fact and agree that the release set forth herein shall be and remain effective notwithstanding such difference in fact. I acknowledge and agree that no consideration other than as provided for by the letter to which this release is an attachment has been or will be paid or furnished by any Employer Affiliate.

2. Covenant Not to Sue. I covenant and agree never, individually or with any person or in any way, to commence, aid in any way, prosecute or cause or permit to be commenced or prosecuted against any Employer Affiliate any action or other proceeding, including, without limitation, an arbitration or other alternative dispute resolution procedure, based upon any claim, demand, cause of action, obligation, damage, or liability that is the subject of this letter (including its attachments). I represent and agree that I have not and will not make or file or cause to be made or filed any claim, charge, allegation, or complaint, whether formal, informal, or anonymous, with any governmental agency, department or division, whether federal, state or local, relating to any Employer Affiliate in any manner, including without limitation, any Employer Affiliate’s business or employment practices. I waive any right to monetary recovery should any administrative or governmental agency or entity pursue any claim on my behalf.

3. Waiver. I acknowledge that California Civil Code § 1542 states:

A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.

Notwithstanding California Civil Code § 1542, I enter into this full waiver and release as set forth above and waive all rights or defenses under § 1542 of the California Civil Code.

4. Indemnification. I agree to indemnify and hold each Employer Affiliate harmless from and against any and all claims, including each Employer Affiliate’s court costs and attorneys’ fees, arising from or in connection with any claim, action, or other proceeding made, brought, or prosecuted, or caused or permitted to be commenced or prosecuted, by me, my successor(s), or assign(s) contrary to the provisions of the letter (including its attachments). It is further agreed that the letter (including its attachments) shall be deemed breached and a cause of action accrued thereon immediately upon the commencement of any action contrary to the letter (including the attachments), and in any such action the letter (including its attachments) may be pleaded by the Employer Affiliates, or any of them, both as a defense and as a counterclaim or cross-claim in such action.

5. Important General Provisions. If any provisions of the letter (including its attachments) is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the other provisions thereof, and the provision held to be invalid or unenforceable shall be enforced as nearly as possible according to its original terms and intent to eliminate such invalidity or unenforceability. The provisions hereof shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of California, both substantive and remedial. The undersigned hereby waives trial by jury in any judicial proceeding involving, directly or indirectly, any matter (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) in any way arising out of, related to, or connected hereto or the relationship established under the letter (including its attachments).

5. Right to Consult Attorney. I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT I HAVE BEEN ADVISED, IN WRITING, TO CONSULT WITH AN ATTORNEY PRIOR TO EXECUTING THE LETTER (INCLUDING ITS ATTACHMENTS).
