Q.

WHO IS SOLICITING MY PROXY?

A.

Celestica's management is soliciting your proxy.    All associated costs of solicitation will be borne by Celestica. The solicitation will be primarily by mail, but proxies may also be solicited personally by regular employees of the Corporation for which no additional compensation will be paid.

If you choose to vote your shares using the form of proxy, your proxy form must be received by Celestica's registrar and transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc. ("Computershare"), 100 University Avenue, 9th Floor, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5J 2Y1, not later than 5:00 p.m. (EDT) on Tuesday, April 22, 2008.

If you choose to vote your shares by telephone or internet, your vote must be received no later than 5:00 p.m. (EDT) on Tuesday, April 22, 2008.

Q.

WHAT IF I SIGN THE FORM OF PROXY ENCLOSED WITH THIS CIRCULAR?

A.

Signing the form of proxy gives authority to Mr. Robert L. Crandall or Mr. Craig H. Muhlhauser, or their designees, to vote your shares at the Meeting, unless you give authority to another person to vote your shares by providing that person's name on the form of proxy.

Q.

CAN I APPOINT SOMEONE OTHER THAN THE PERSONS NAMED IN THE FORM OF PROXY ENCLOSED WITH THIS CIRCULAR TO VOTE MY SHARES AT THE MEETING?

A.

Yes. Write the name of the person of your choice in the blank space provided in the form of proxy. The person whom you choose need not be a shareholder.

Please ensure that the person you have appointed is attending the Meeting and is aware that he or she will be voting your shares. Proxyholders should speak to a representative of Computershare upon arriving at the Meeting.

Q.

HOW WILL MY SHARES BE VOTED AT THE MEETING IF I GIVE MY PROXY?

A.

On any ballot that may be called for, the shares represented by a properly executed proxy given in favour of the persons designated by management of the Corporation in the enclosed form of proxy will be voted or withheld from voting in accordance with the instructions given on the ballot, and if you specify a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the shares will be voted accordingly.

The persons named in the form of proxy must vote or withhold from voting your shares in accordance with your instructions on the form of proxy. In the absence of such directions and unless you specify a person other than Mr. Crandall or Mr. Muhlhauser to vote your shares, your shares will be voted in favour of the election to Celestica's Board of the nominees proposed by management, in favour of the appointment of KPMG LLP as Celestica's auditor for 2008 and the authorization of the Board to fix the auditor's remuneration and in favour of the amendments to Celestica's By-Law 1, in each case as described in this Circular.

Q.

IF I CHANGE MY MIND, CAN I TAKE BACK MY PROXY ONCE I HAVE GIVEN IT?

A.

Yes, you may revoke any proxy that you have given at any time prior to its use at the Meeting for which it was given or any adjournment or postponement thereof. In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, you may revoke the proxy by preparing a written statement, signed by you or your attorney, as authorized, or if the proxy is given on behalf of a corporation, by a duly authorized officer or attorney of such corporation, and deposited, or by transmitting, by telephonic or electronic means, a revocation signed by electronic signature by you or by your attorney, who is authorized in writing, to, or at, the registered office of the Corporation at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, at which the proxy is to be used, or with the Chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, prior to the proxy being voted.

Note that your participation in person in a vote by ballot at the Meeting will automatically revoke any proxy previously given by you regarding business considered by that vote.

---

Q.

WHAT IF AMENDMENTS ARE MADE TO THE SCHEDULED MATTERS OR IF OTHER MATTERS ARE BROUGHT BEFORE THE MEETING?

A.

The accompanying form of proxy confers discretionary authority upon the proxy nominees in respect of any amendments or variations to matters identified in the Notice of Meeting or other matters that may properly come before the Meeting or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof.

As of the date of this Circular, Celestica's management was not aware of any such amendments, variations or other matters to come before the Meeting. However, if any amendments, variations or other matters which are not now known to management should properly come before the Meeting or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof, the shares represented by proxies in favour of the management nominees will be voted on such matters in accordance with the best judgment of the proxy nominees.

Q.

HOW WILL THE VOTES BE COUNTED?

A.

Each question brought before the Meeting is determined by a majority of the votes cast on the question by both Subordinate Voting Shareholders and Multiple Voting Shareholders voting as a single class.

Q.

HOW DO I VOTE IF I AM A NON-REGISTERED SHAREHOLDER?

A.

The form of proxy provided with this Circular will indicate whether or not you are a registered shareholder. Non-registered shareholders hold their shares through intermediaries, such as banks, trust companies, securities dealers or brokers. If you are a non-registered shareholder, the intermediary holding your shares should provide a voting instruction form which you must complete, sign and return in accordance with the instructions set forth therein. This form will constitute voting instructions which the intermediary must follow.

Alternatively, the intermediary may provide you with a signed form of proxy. In this case, you do not need to sign the form of proxy, but should complete it and forward it directly to Computershare.

Should you, as a non-registered shareholder, wish to attend the Meeting and vote your shares in person, or have another person attend and vote your shares on your behalf, you should fill in your own name, or the name of your appointee, in the space provided on the form of proxy. An intermediary's voting instruction form will likely provide corresponding instructions to cast your vote in person. In any case, you should carefully follow the instructions provided by the intermediary and contact the intermediary promptly if you require assistance.

If you vote by mail and would subsequently like to change your vote (whether by revoking a voting instruction or by revoking a proxy), you should contact the intermediary to discuss whether this is possible and, if so, what procedures you should follow.

Q.

HOW CAN I CONTACT THE INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS AND NON-EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN?

A.

You may contact the independent directors, including the independent Chairman of Celestica, with the assistance of Celestica Investor Relations. Shareholders or other interested persons can send a letter, e-mail or fax c/o Celestica Investor Relations at the following coordinates:

⁽²⁾

As used in this table, "control or direction" means sole or shared power to vote or direct the voting of the security, or the sole or shared investment power with respect to a security (i.e., the power to dispose or direct a disposition of a security).

⁽³⁾

Includes 188,744 Subordinate Voting Shares owned by a company controlled by Mr. Schwartz and all of the shares of Celestica beneficially owned by Onex, or in respect of which Onex exercises control or direction, of which 1,077,500 Subordinate Voting Shares are subject to options granted to Mr. Schwartz pursuant to certain management investment plans of Onex and 1,434,141 Subordinate Voting Shares held in trust for Celestica Employee Nominee Corporation as agent for and on behalf of certain executives and employees of Celestica pursuant to certain of Celestica's employee share purchase and option plans. Mr. Schwartz is a director of Celestica and the Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of Onex, and owns Multiple Voting Shares of Onex carrying the right to elect a majority of the Onex board of directors. Accordingly, under applicable securities laws, Mr. Schwartz is deemed to be the beneficial owner of the Celestica shares owned by Onex; Mr. Schwartz has advised, however, that he disclaims any rights of such beneficial ownership of the Celestica shares held by Onex and Celestica Employee Nominee Corporation.

This information reflects share ownership as of December 31, 2007 and is taken from Schedule 13G filed by Mackenzie Financial Corporation with the SEC on February 14, 2008.

Agreement for the Benefit of Holders of Subordinate Voting Shares

---

---

Onex Corporation ("Onex"), which, directly or indirectly, owns all of the outstanding Multiple Voting Shares, has entered into an agreement with the Corporation and with Computershare Trust Company of Canada, as trustee for the benefit of the holders of the Subordinate Voting Shares, to ensure that the holders of the Subordinate Voting Shares will not be deprived of any rights under applicable provincial take-over bid legislation to which they would be entitled in the event of a take-over bid as if the Multiple Voting Shares and Subordinate Voting Shares were of a single class of shares.

The Articles of the Corporation provide "coat-tail" protection to the holders of the Subordinate Voting Shares by providing that the Multiple Voting Shares will be converted automatically into Subordinate Voting Shares upon any transfer thereof, except (a) a transfer to Onex or any affiliate of Onex, or (b) a transfer of 100% of the outstanding Multiple Voting Shares to a purchaser who also has offered to purchase all of the outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares for a per share consideration identical to, and otherwise on the same terms as, that offered for the Multiple Voting Shares and the Multiple Voting Shares held by such purchaser thereafter shall be subject to the provisions relating to conversion as if all references to Onex were references to such purchaser. In addition, if (a) any holder of any Multiple Voting Shares ceases to be an affiliate of Onex, or (b) Onex and its affiliates cease to have the right, in all cases, to exercise the votes attached to, or to direct the voting of, any of the Multiple Voting Shares held by Onex and its affiliates, such Multiple Voting Shares shall convert automatically into Subordinate Voting Shares on a one-for-one basis. See footnote 3 to Item 7 in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 20-F.

INFORMATION RELATING TO OUR DIRECTORS

Election of Directors

---

---

The seven individuals listed below are being recommended for election as directors of the Corporation. If elected, they will hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders or until their successors are elected or appointed, unless such office is earlier vacated in accordance with the Corporation's By-laws. All of the proposed nominees are now directors of the Corporation. The Articles of the Corporation provide for a minimum of three and a maximum of 20 directors. The Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "Board of Directors" or the "Board") has the authority to set the number of directors of the Corporation to be elected at the Meeting and has set that number at seven.

Unless authority to do so is withheld, proxies given pursuant to this solicitation by the management of the Corporation will be voted in favour of each of the proposed nominees for election as directors. Management of the Corporation does not contemplate that any of the nominees will be unable, or for any reason unwilling, to serve as a director, but if that should occur for any reason prior to their election, the proxy nominees may, in their discretion, nominate and vote for another nominee.

There are no contracts, arrangements or understandings between any director or executive officer or any other person pursuant to which any of the nominees have been nominated.

The Board adopted a policy that requires in an uncontested election of directors that: shareholders will be able to vote in favour of, or to withhold from voting, separately for each director nominee; if, with respect to any particular nominee, other than the controlling shareholder or a representative of the controlling shareholder, the number of shares withheld from voting by shareholders other than the controlling shareholders and its associates exceeds the number of shares that they vote in favour of the nominee, then the Board will determine, and in so doing will give due weight to the rights of the controlling shareholder, whether to require the nominee to resign from the Board; if the Board determines that such a nominee should resign, the nominee will resign and the Board will accept the resignation; it is expected that such a determination by the Board will be made, and announced, within 90 days after the applicable shareholders' meeting; and, subject to any corporate law restrictions, the Board may leave any resultant vacancy unfilled until

5

---

the next annual shareholders' meeting or it may fill the vacancy through the appointment of a new director whom the Board considers to merit the confidence of the shareholders or it may call a special meeting of shareholders at which there will be presented a management slate to fill the vacant position or positions.

The following tables set out certain information with respect to the nominees, including their municipalities of residence; their ages and the year from which each has continually served as a director of the Corporation; all positions and offices held by them with the Corporation or any of its significant affiliates; their principal occupations or employment during the past five years; and other corporations of which they are directors. For a description of the number of shares, options, deferred share units ("DSUs") and restricted share units ("RSUs") beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, or over which control or direction is exercised by the Corporation's directors, and a description of the DSUs and RSUs, see Directors' Compensation on page 11 and Report on Executive Compensation on page 17, respectively of this Circular, and, in the case of securities of the Corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by Mr. Schwartz and his associates and affiliates, also see Principal Holders of Voting Shares on page 4.

Directors' Compensation

---

---

Interlocking Directorships

---

None of the directors of the Corporation serve together as directors of other corporations other than Mr. Schwartz and Mr. Etherington who serve together on the board of directors of Onex.

Directors' Compensation

---

Director compensation is set by the Board on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee and in accordance with director compensation guidelines established by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the "Governance Committee"). Under these guidelines, the Board seeks to maintain director compensation at a level that is competitive with director compensation at comparable companies. The Compensation Committee engaged Towers Perrin Inc. ("Towers Perrin") to provide benchmarking information in this regard. (See page 17 for a discussion regarding the role of Towers Perrin.) The guidelines also contemplate that at least half of each director's compensation be paid in DSUs. Each DSU represents the right to receive one Subordinate Voting Share of the Corporation when the director ceases to be a director.

Celestica has a minimum shareholding requirement for independent directors (the "Guideline"). The Guideline provides that independent directors are to hold securities of Celestica with a value equivalent to five times their respective annual retainer. Although directors will not be deemed to have breached the Guideline by reason of a decrease in the market value of Celestica's securities, the directors will be required to purchase further securities within a reasonable period of time to comply with the Guideline. Directors have until the later of five years from their respective first election dates and five years from April 22, 2004, the effective date of the Guideline, to meet the share ownership requirement. All of Celestica's directors are in compliance with, or on track to be in, compliance with the Guideline. See Table 4.

Table 2 sets out the annual retainers and meeting fees payable to Celestica's directors (other than Messrs. Schwartz and Mulhauser who, as officers of Onex and Celestica, respectively, do not receive such compensation).

Table 2: Retainers and Meeting Fees for 2008

Annual Board Retainer		$65,000
Annual Retainer for non-executive Chairman(1)		$130,000
Annual Retainer for Audit Committee Chair		$20,000
Annual Retainer for Compensation Committee Chair		$10,000
Annual Retainer for Executive Committee Chair		$10,000
Board and Committee Per Day Meeting Fee(2)		$2,500
Travel Fee(3)		$2,500
Annual DSU Grant (for directors other than the Chairman)		$65,000
Annual DSU Grant — Chairman		$130,000

---

⁽¹⁾

The non-executive Chairman also serves as the Chair of the Governance Committee, for which no additional fee is paid.

⁽²⁾

Attendance fees are paid per day of meetings, regardless of whether a director attends more than one meeting in a single day, except that a separate attendance fee is paid for each Executive Committee meeting, even if it occurs on the same day as other meetings.

⁽³⁾

The travel fee is available only to directors who travel outside of their home state or province to attend a Board or Committee meeting.

11

---

Directors receive half of their fees (or all their fees, if they so elect) in DSUs. The number of DSUs paid in lieu of cash meeting fees is calculated by dividing the cash fee that would otherwise be payable by the closing price of Subordinate Voting Shares on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") on the last business day of the quarter in which the applicable meeting occurred. In the case of annual retainer fees, the number of DSUs paid is calculated by dividing the cash amount that would otherwise be payable quarterly by the closing price of Subordinate Voting Shares on the NYSE on the last business day of the quarter.

Directors also receive annual grants of DSUs. Each director receives $65,000 worth of DSUs annually, except for the Chairman, who receives $130,000 worth of DSUs annually. The number of DSUs paid is calculated by dividing the cash amount that would otherwise be payable quarterly by the closing price of Subordinate Voting Shares on the NYSE on the last business day of the quarter. Eligible directors receive an initial grant of 10,000 DSUs when they are appointed to the Board. Directors do not receive options as the Board elected to discontinue the director option program in 2004.

DSUs that were granted prior to January 1, 2007 will be paid out in the form of Subordinate Voting Shares issued from treasury. DSUs granted after January 1, 2007 will be paid out in the form of Subordinate Voting Shares purchased in the open market or an equivalent value in cash. The date used in valuing the DSUs shall be a date within 90 days of the date on which the individual in question ceases to be a director. The DSUs shall be redeemed and payable on or prior to the 90^th day following the date on which the individual ceases to be a director.

The compensation paid in 2007 by the Corporation to its directors is set out in Table 3. None of the directors received any fee or payment from Celestica except as set out below. Mr. Schwartz is an officer of Onex and did not receive any compensation in his capacity as a director of the Corporation in 2007. Mr. Muhlhauser, as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation, also did not receive any director's fees from the Corporation in 2007.

Historical Option Grants to Directors

---

In 2005, the Corporation amended its Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") to prohibit the granting of options to acquire Subordinate Voting Shares to directors. Table 5 sets out information relating to option grants to directors between 1998 and 2004, which were made at the closing market price on the business day prior to the date of grant. Exercise prices range from $8.75 to C$72.60. Options vest over three or four years and expire after ten years. The final grant of options occurred on May 10, 2004; those options will expire on May 10, 2014. Mr. Schwartz and Dr. Melman, as employees of Onex during that period, were not granted options. Mr. Muhlhauser joined the Corporation in May 2005, was appointed Chief Executive Officer in November 2006 and became a director in August 2007. Table 5 includes information relating to option grants to Mr. Muhlhauser as an employee and officer of the Corporation.

INFORMATION ABOUT OUR AUDITOR

Appointment of Auditor

---

It is proposed that KPMG LLP ("KPMG") be appointed as the auditor of the Corporation to hold office until the close of the next annual meeting of shareholders. KPMG is the current auditor of the Corporation and was first appointed as auditor of the Corporation on October 14, 1997. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors negotiates with the auditor of the Corporation on an arm's length basis in determining the fees to be paid to the auditor. Such fees have been based upon the complexity of the matters dealt with and the time expended by the auditor in providing services to the Corporation. The Corporation believes that the fees negotiated in the past with the auditor of the Corporation have been reasonable and would be comparable to fees charged by other auditors providing similar services.

Fees Paid to KPMG LLP

---

The Corporation's Audit Committee believes that the provision of the non-audit services is compatible with maintaining KPMG's independence. KPMG did not provide any financial information systems design or implementation services to the Corporation during 2007.

It is intended that, on any ballot relating to the appointment of the auditor, the shares represented by proxies in favour of the management nominees will be voted in favour of the appointment of KPMG as auditor of the Corporation to hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders, and authorizing the Board of Directors to fix the remuneration to be paid to the auditor, unless authority to do so is withheld.

REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

This report of the Compensation Committee of Celestica's Board of Directors sets out the policies of the Compensation Committee for determining compensation of Celestica's executive officers. Compensation paid to Celestica's chief executive officer, chief financial officer, the three other most highly compensated executive officers during 2007 and the former chief financial officer is set out in the section entitled Executive Compensation on page 29 of this Circular.

Composition of the Compensation Committee

---

The members of the Compensation Committee are William Etherington (Chairman), Robert Crandall, Charles Szuluk and Don Tapscott, each of whom is an independent director.

Mandate of the Compensation Committee

---

It is the responsibility of the Compensation Committee to define and communicate compensation policies and principles that reflect and support the Corporation's strategic direction, business goals and desired culture. Pursuant to its mandate, the Compensation Committee reviews and makes recommendations to the Board with respect to the following matters:

•

an overall reward/compensation policy for the Corporation, including an executive compensation policy that is consistent with competitive practice and supports organizational objectives and shareholder interests;



•

the elements of the Corporation's equity-based incentive compensation plans, including plan design, performance targets, administration and total funds/shares reserved for payment;



•

the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer (the "CEO") based on the Board of Directors' assessment of the annual performance of the CEO;



•

the compensation of the Corporation's most senior executives;



•

the Corporation's succession plans for key executive positions; and



•

material changes to the Corporation's organizational structure and human resource policies.

Independent Advice

---

The Compensation Committee has engaged Towers Perrin as its independent compensation consultant to assist in identifying appropriate comparator companies against which to evaluate Celestica's compensation levels, to provide data about those companies, and to provide observations and recommendations with respect to Celestica's compensation practices versus the comparator group.

Towers Perrin provides advice to the Committee on policy recommendations prepared by management. Towers Perrin attended portions of all Committee meetings held in 2007, in person or by telephone, as requested by the Committee Chair.

Decisions made by the Compensation Committee, however, are the responsibility of the Committee and may reflect factors and considerations other than the information and recommendations provided by Towers Perrin.

In 2007, the Committee's compensation advisor fees totalled approximately C$332,594.

The mandate of the Compensation Committee includes the following:

•

the Committee shall engage an independent advisor;



•

the scope of activity by the independent consultant and corresponding budget shall be approved annually by the Chair;



•

any services, and associated fees, not related to executive compensation must be pre-approved by the Chair;

17

---

•

an annual meeting schedule, standing agenda items, and agenda items for individual meetings shall be developed in consultation with the independent advisor;



•

in camera meetings with the independent advisor should be part of every Committee meeting; and



•

the performance of the independent advisor shall be assessed annually by the Committee.

Compensation Objectives

---

The Corporation's executive compensation philosophies and practices are designed to attract, motivate and retain the leaders who will drive the success of the Corporation. We benchmark the Corporation against a peer group of direct EMS competitors and other technology companies of similar size to Celestica.

Compensation for executives is linked to the Corporation's performance; it is positioned at the median of the peer group for median level performance, with the opportunity for above median compensation for performance that exceeds that of the peer group and less than median compensation for performance that is below that of the peer group.

The compensation package is designed to:

•

Provide competitive fixed compensation (i.e., base salary and benefits), and a substantial amount of pay at risk. At risk pay will be realized through the annual, mid-term and long term incentive plans.



•

Reward executives for achieving operational and financial results that meet or exceed our business plan and that are superior to those of our competitors through both annual incentives and equity-based mid-term and long-term incentives.



•

Reward executives for achieving sustained, profitable growth that creates shareholder value through equity-based compensation (i.e., mid-term and long-term incentives).



•

Recognize that the executives work as a team to achieve corporate results.



•

Ensure direct accountability for the annual operating results and the long term financial performance of the Corporation.

The compensation of Celestica's executive officers is comprised of the following elements: base salary, short-term incentives (annual variable cash payments), mid-term incentives (performance and restricted share units), long-term incentives (options) and benefits. Table 7 summarizes each element of compensation.

18

---

Table 7: Compensation Elements

Element		Form		Eligibility		Performance Period				Determination
Base Salary		Cash		All executives, up to and including CEO		1 year		•		Salary benchmarking at market median and individual performance determines pay level.
Annual Incentive		Cash		All executives, up to and including CEO		1 year		•		Various combinations of corporate and business unit results, depending on position.
								•		Individual results.
								•		Performance relative to key competitors for SVP level and above.
Mid-Term Incentive		Restricted Share Units ("RSUs")		All executives, up to and including CEO		For grants prior to 2008 — units typically released at the end of the 3 years term		• •		Each RSU entitles the holder to receive one Subordinate Voting Share of Celestica on the release date. Initial grant value is based on market median compensation and individual performance.
						For grants in 2008, released 1/3 annually		•		Final value is based on the share price at time of release.
Mid-Term Incentive		Performance Share Units ("PSUs")		All executives, up to and including CEO		Typically 3 years, released at end of the period		•		Each PSU entitles the holder to receive one Subordinate Voting Share of Celestica on the release date.
								•		Initial grant value is based on market median compensation and individual performance.
								•		Number of shares vested varies based on specific performance measure of return on invested capital in year 3 relative to those of direct electronics manufacturing service competitors and can range from 0 to 200% of grant.

Benefits		Health, dental, pension, life insurance and long-term disability programs.		All employees		Ongoing		•		Based on market median in local geography.

Comparator Companies and Market Positioning

---

The Compensation Committee benchmarks all elements of executive compensation against executive compensation of a comparator group of North American companies in the technology sector with revenue similar to that of Celestica and including at least four of the Corporation's direct competitors in the electronics manufacturing services industry (the "EMS Competitors"). The Compensation Committee reviews and approves the comparator companies each year. In addition, when establishing executive compensation, including the granting of incentives and equity-based elements, the Compensation Committee considers the potential value to the executives at different levels of corporate performance and the Corporation's stock price.

19

---

For executive positions where no direct comparison exists or where there is insufficient data within that group, benchmarking is done using executive salary survey data for organizations similar in size to Celestica pursuant to a process approved by the Compensation Committee.

Target compensation is benchmarked at the market median (50th percentile) for both executive and non-executive levels for performance at the median of the market, with additional compensation available for above median performance.

Weighting of Compensation Elements

---

At the executive levels, a high portion of the weighting includes "at risk" components which comprise an annual cash incentive and equity-based incentive awards. The variable portion of total compensation has the highest weighting at the most senior levels. We are also subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Accordingly, if we were required to restate financial results due to misconduct or material non-compliance with financial reporting requirements, our CEO and CFO would be required to reimburse the Corporation for any bonuses or incentive-based compensation they had received during the 12-month period following the restatement as well as any profits they had realized from the sale of corporate securities during that period.

Rewards are contingent on organizational performance and ensure a strong alignment with shareholder interests. The weighting of compensation elements for 2007 is set out in the following chart.

Table 8: Weighting of Compensation Elements

Base Salary

---

Base salaries are established by taking into account individual performance and experience, level of responsibility and competitive pay practices through market median benchmarking. Base salaries are reviewed annually and adjusted as appropriate. Although base salaries are not directly linked to corporate performance, the Corporation considers the level of corporate performance achieved in the prior year as well as the expected level of performance in making any adjustments. The Compensation Committee reviews and recommends to the Board individual salary increases for the CEO, as well as all Executive and Senior Vice Presidents.

Annual Incentive Plans

---

Celestica Executive Team Incentive Plan

Senior executives of the Corporation participate in the Celestica Executive Team Incentive Plan. Payments under this plan are tied to achievement relative to pre-determined targets for financial and customer results at a corporate or business unit level, individual performance and the Corporation's performance relative to that of EMS Competitors on key financial metrics.

20

---

Corporate targets are based on return on invested capital ("ROIC"), Earnings before Interest, Amortization and Taxes ("EBIAT") and customer loyalty. Targets are approved by the Board on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee.

Results for these metrics determine the amount of the annual cash incentive. In addition, each metric of the incentive plan is capped at a target level of achievement unless a corporate profitability threshold is met. In 2007, corporate business results were below target.

For those executives at the level of Senior Vice President and higher, the Compensation Committee reviews each executive's individual performance relative to business results, teamwork and the executive's key accomplishments. This assessment is factored into the executive's actual award and can increase or decrease the value of the incentive award.

The Compensation Committee also evaluates the Corporation's performance for the year relative to that of the EMS Competitors. This evaluation is based on performance metrics relating to ROIC but is ultimately within the Committee's discretion. Improvements in ROIC over the year resulted in a relative performance factor of 90%. In 2007, annual incentive payments to most executives were substantially below target. The average senior executive payment was about 23% of the target annual incentive amount. (Also, see description of Special Discretionary Bonus on page 24.)

Mid-Term and Long-Term Incentives

---

Celestica's mid-term and long-term equity-based incentives for senior executives consist of RSUs, PSUs, and stock options. The objectives of the mid-term and long-term equity-based incentive plans are to:

•

align employee interests with those of shareholders and incent appropriate behaviours for long-term performance;



•

reward employees for their contribution to Celestica's success; and

enable the Corporation to attract and retain the qualified and experienced employees who are critical to the Corporation's success.

The equity mix varies by employee level and targets a higher percentage of performance elements at the senior levels where there is a stronger influence on results.

The Compensation Committee approves all awards under equity-based incentive plans for the CEO and the Executive and Senior Vice Presidents.

Mid-term and long-term incentives to employees are issued under the LTIP, which allows Celestica to satisfy its obligations by issuing shares from treasury, acquiring shares in the market or paying cash. Incentives are also issued under the Celestica Share Unit Plan (the "CSUP"), which provides for the issuance of RSUs and PSUs in the same manner as provided in the LTIP, except that Celestica may not issue shares from treasury to satisfy its obligations under the CSUP and there is no limit on the Subordinate Voting Shares that may be issued under the terms of the CSUP. In determining the number of equity grants to be made in a given year, Celestica targets a maximum level for both "burn rate" and "overhang" after taking into account competitive practice with reference to a comparison group that includes its direct competitors. "Burn rate" refers to the number of shares reserved for issuance under equity plans in a given year relative to the total number of shares outstanding. "Overhang" refers to the total number of shares reserved for issuance under equity plans at any given time relative to the total number of shares outstanding. Celestica is taking measures to lower the "overhang" and "burn rate" and has considerably reduced the number of stock option grants it now awards. In 2005, Celestica amended the LTIP to provide that the number of grants awarded under the plan in any given year cannot exceed 1.2% of the total number of shares outstanding.

The equity incentive mix for all executives is calculated using a target of 30% PSUs, 40% RSUs and 30% options. Actual mix may vary.

The terms and other information relating to all equity-based grants to the CEO are contained in the Report on the Chief Executive Officer's Compensation on page 25 of this Circular.

Restricted Share Units

---

RSUs for executives are granted annually based on the recommendation of the CEO and subject to the approval of the Board. These grants are to be paid in the form of Subordinate Voting Shares ("SVS") at the release date, which generally is approximately three years from the date of the grant. RSUs granted on February 5, 2008 will be released approximately one-third per year. The number of RSUs granted is determined with consideration to individual performance and with reference to grants at the median level for the comparator group.

The total number of RSUs granted to executives, including the CEO, as part of the 2007 annual grant was 1,702,254.

Throughout the year, Celestica also grants RSUs for new hire or retention purposes.

Performance Share Units

---

The use of PSUs allows Celestica to link rewards for executives more closely with individual and corporate performance. PSUs for executives are granted based on the recommendation of the CEO and subject to the approval of the Board. The number of PSUs granted is determined with consideration to individual performance and with reference to grants at the median level for the comparator group. These grants convert into Subordinate Voting Shares and are released in full at the end of the performance period (approximately three years).

•

The number of PSUs that vests is determined by Celestica's rank compared to the EMS Competitors on a ROIC performance metric as outlined in Table 9.



•

High performance means units vest above the target level which results in an award above market median. Conversely, low performance will result in an award below market median or no award.

The total number of PSUs issued as part of the 2007 annual grant to executives, including the CEO, was 1,042,250 units at the target, or 100% achievement, level. The number of PSUs that actually vests will range from 0 to 200% of target depending on the Corporation's relative performance ranking.

For PSUs that vested in January 2008 or earlier, the number of shares that vested depended on Celestica's absolute ranking relative to a comparator group of four direct competitors. The vesting schedule is shown in Table 9.

Table 9: Performance Vesting

Based on performance in 2007, 50% of the target number of PSUs that were due to vest in 2007 actually vested.

For PSUs vesting in 2009 and later, the number of shares that vests will depend on Celestica's ranking relative to a comparator group of direct competitors as follows:

•

If Celestica's performance is equal to, or greater than, that of the highest performing comparator, 200% of the units will vest.



•

If Celestica's performance is equal to the median performance of the comparator group, 100% of the units will vest.



•

If Celestica's performance is the lowest of the group, 0% of the units will vest.



•

For performance between the median of the group and the highest performer, the number of shares that vests will be prorated between 100% and 200% on a straight-line basis.



•

For performance between that of the lowest performer and the median of the group, the number of shares that vests will be prorated between 0% and 100% on a straight-line basis.

22

---

Stock Options

---

Stock options are granted annually under Celestica's LTIP, based on the recommendation of the CEO and subject to the approval of the Board. Stock options vest 25% annually over four years. The term of the options is ten years.

The total number of stock options granted to executives as part of the 2007 annual grant was 2,084,500. Throughout the year, Celestica also grants stock options for new hire or retention purposes.

Performance Contingent Stock Options

---

In the past, PCOs have been granted to the CEO, Executive Vice Presidents and selected Senior Vice Presidents. For 2007, no PCOs were issued and the Company does not expect to issue any in the future.

The number of PCOs that vests each year is dependent on Celestica's performance on a return on capital measure relative to that of the EMS Competitors for the relevant year, similar to the vesting schedule outlined for PSUs in Table 9. The number of PCOs that vests will range from 0 to 200% depending on the Corporation's performance ranking. A "catch up" provision applies such that PCOs that did not vest in a prior year due to performance will vest if in year two or three Celestica ranks first or second on its ROIC performance metric.

High performance means PCOs vest at above the target level and results in an award above market median compensation. Conversely, low performance will result in an award below market median or no award.

Based on performance, 50% of the target number of PCOs due to vest in 2007 actually vested.

Employee Share Purchase and Option Plans (the "ESPO Plans")

---

Celestica has issued Subordinate Voting Shares and has granted options to acquire Subordinate Voting Shares for the benefit of certain of its employees and executives pursuant to the ESPO Plans which were in effect prior to Celestica's initial public offering. No further options or Subordinate Voting Shares (other than pursuant to outstanding options) may be issued under these ESPO Plans.

Pursuant to the ESPO Plans, employees and executives of Celestica were offered the opportunity to purchase Subordinate Voting Shares and, in connection with such purchase, receive options to acquire an additional number of Subordinate Voting Shares based on the number of Subordinate Voting Shares acquired by them under the ESPO Plans (on average, approximately 1.435 options for each Subordinate Voting Share acquired under the ESPO Plans). In each case, the exercise price for the options is equal to the price per share paid for the Subordinate Voting Shares acquired under the ESPO Plans.

Upon the completion of Celestica's initial public offering, certain options became exercisable. The balance of the options issued under the ESPO Plans were fully vested as of December 31, 2002. All Subordinate Voting Shares acquired by employees under the ESPO Plans, and which have not been sold by the employees, are held either by the employee or by HSBC Securities (Canada) Inc. in trust for Celestica Employee Nominee Corporation as agent for and on behalf of such employees.

23

---

Celestica Employee Share Ownership Plan (the "CESOP")

---

The CESOP enables eligible employees, including executive officers, to acquire Subordinate Voting Shares, so as to encourage continued employee interest in Celestica's operation, growth and development. Under the CESOP, an eligible participant may elect to contribute an amount representing no more than 10% of his or her salary. The Corporation will contribute 25% of the amount that the employee contributes, up to a maximum of 1% of the employee's salary for the relevant payroll period. Contributions are used to purchase Subordinate Voting Shares of the Corporation on the open market.

Executive Share Ownership

---

The Corporation has share ownership guidelines for the CEO and Executive Vice Presidents. The guidelines provide that these individuals are to hold a multiple of their salary in Celestica stock as shown in Table 10 below. Executives subject to ownership guidelines are expected to achieve the specified ownership within a period of five years following the latest of: implementation of the guidelines (January 26, 2005); date of hire; or promotion to a level subject to ownership guidelines.

Table 10: Share Ownership Guidelines

Compliance is reviewed annually on January 31. In assessing compliance, Celestica shares beneficially owned by the executive and all RSUs are included.

Special Discretionary Bonus

---

The Compensation Committee recognized that a number of the Corporation's significant financial and operational improvements in 2007 were not reflected in the results of the Celestica Executive Team Incentive Plan. The Board therefore authorized discretionary bonuses for individuals who contributed to the Corporation's accomplishments but were not rewarded for the contribution in the annual incentive plan. Awards to all Senior Vice Presidents and above were approved by the Board. Awards to other individuals were approved by the CEO. The total amount paid to Vice Presidents and above was approximately $2,570,000. (See also the section on Individual Performance under Report on the Chief Executive Officer's Compensation on page 26 of this Circular.)

REPORT ON THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER'S COMPENSATION

Mr. Muhlhauser has been the CEO since November 28, 2006. The independent directors of the Board approved all components of the CEO's compensation based on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee.

Comparator Companies and Market Positioning

---

Benchmarking for all elements of the CEO's compensation was based on the comparator group of companies described under Report on Executive Compensation — Comparator Companies and Market Positioning on page 19 of this Circular. In 2007, Towers Perrin provided all benchmark data for the CEO as described under Report on Executive Compensation — Independent Advice on page 17 of this Circular.

All regular compensation elements for the CEO were benchmarked at the market median (50th percentile).

Target CEO compensation contains a high proportion of cash and equity incentives that are "at risk" based on performance. In 2007, the weighting for CEO's performance-based annual, mid-term and long-term incentive awards was approximately 87% of total direct compensation.

Base Salary

---

The base salary for the CEO was established by taking into account individual performance and experience, level of responsibility and competitive

pay practices. Mr. Muhlhauser's annual salary for 2007 was $750,000. Mr. Muhlhauser was paid in US dollars.

Annual Incentive Plan

---

Mr. Muhlhauser participates in the Celestica Executive Team Incentive Plan on the same basis as other executives as outlined under Report on Executive Compensation — Annual Incentive Plans on page 20 of this Circular. As described in that section, the annual incentive payout is based on business results, individual performance and corporate performance relative to the EMS Competitors.

Business Results and Relative Performance

---

The business results and relative performance elements of the Annual Incentive Plan are described under Report on Executive Compensation — Annual Incentive Plans on page 20 of this Circular.

Individual Performance

---

The Board establishes performance targets for the CEO and evaluates his performance relative to those targets. In 2007, Mr. Muhlhauser was measured on his success in the following categories: financial results; customer loyalty; operational effectiveness; leadership; and growing the business.

Table 11 summarizes the 2007 achievements relative to significant performance objectives for the CEO.

Table 11: CEO Performance 2007

Performance Category		Goals		Achievement Relative to Goals
Financial Results		• Meet specified profit (EBIAT) objectives. • Meet specified ROIC objectives.		• EBIAT declined 22% from $171M in 2006 to $134M in 2007. • ROIC declined from 7.7% in 2006 to 6.4% in 2007. • Overall targets were not achieved.
Customer Loyalty		• Improve customer loyalty as measured by independent survey process by specified percentage.		• The customer loyalty targets were exceeded in 2007.
Operational Effectiveness		• Reduce overall spend as a percentage of revenue.		• The improvement target for operational effectiveness was not achieved.
Leadership		• Improve employee satisfaction as measured by global employee survey process by specified percentage.		• The improvement target for leadership was not achieved.
Growing the Business		• Achieve specified dollar amount of new business bookings and increase market share.		• New business wins improved significantly as compared to 2006; however, the specified targets were not achieved.

The Board of Directors determined that, under the leadership of Mr. Muhlhauser, sustainable and rapid progress was made in 2007 in positioning the Corporation for solid improvement in financial and operational performance. Mr. Muhlhauser has implemented a number of management and organizational changes to ensure that the Corporation has the resources needed to achieve its corporate goals. The Board determined that Mr. Muhlhauser's strong performance warranted an incentive payment, but since corporate performance was below plan, the payment under the Celestica Executive Team Incentive Plan was below target. Mr. Muhlhauser received an incentive payment under the Celestica Executive Team Incentive Plan of $160,650. In addition, Mr. Muhlhauser was awarded a special discretionary bonus of $400,000 (see Special Discretionary Bonus on page 24) in recognition of the significant business improvements made in 2007 that were not measured in the Celestica Executive Team Incentive Plan targets. These accomplishments were specifically associated with taking the Corporation from multi-year lows in many of its key operating metrics in the first quarter of 2007 and quickly implementing changes that allowed the Corporation to achieve multi-year highs in key operating metrics by the fourth quarter of 2007. These accomplishments allowed the Corporation to exit the fourth quarter of 2007 in one of its strongest financial positions in several years. These areas of improvement are also among the most important metrics looked upon by investors and rating agencies, and play an important role with customers who consider the Corporation's financial status when

awarding potential new business. The absolute achievements and the pace of the improvement, from the first quarter to the fourth quarter of 2007, was a key factor in awarding the bonuses. The improvements included:

•

2007 fourth quarter gross margins at the highest quarterly gross margin levels since 2002.



•

2007 fourth quarter inventory turns at the highest level achieved as a public company.



•

2007 fourth quarter return on invested capital at the highest level since 2001.



•

A return to a full-year of positive free cash flow, last achieved in 2005.



•

Ending the year with the highest cash position since 2002.



•

2007 fourth quarter operating margins recovering to peak levels last seen in 2006, despite lower revenues.



•

Selling, general and administrative expenses (excluding non-cash options) growing 1% from the first quarter to the fourth quarter of 2007, while revenue grew 20% during the same period.



•

Inventories declining 27% from the first quarter of 2007 to the fourth quarter of 2007, while revenues grew 20% during the same time period.



•

Significant year-over-year improvements in customer loyalty levels.

The total Celestica Executive Team Incentive Plan and special bonus payment of $560,650 represents 75% of his base salary. His target payment under the Celestica Executive Team Incentive Plan is 100% of base salary.

Mid-Term and Long-Term Incentives

---

Equity grants to Mr. Muhlhauser in respect of 2007 performance consisted of RSUs, PSUs and stock options. Such equity based "at risk" compensation constituted 75% of Mr. Muhlhauser's targeted compensation.

Under the 2007 annual grant, on February 5, 2008 Celestica provided Mr. Muhlhauser the following equity-based compensation:

•

225,000 PSUs. This assumes vesting at the target level of 100%. The actual number that vests will vary from 0 to 200% depending on performance as discussed at page 22;



•

367,500 RSUs; and



•

450,000 stock options.

The value of Mr. Muhlhauser's annual equity grants is approximately $5,300,000, based on a share price of $6.51 (the closing price of Celestica Subordinate Voting Shares on the NYSE on February 4, 2008).

Pension Plans

---

Mr. Muhlhauser participates in the "US Plan". The US Plan is a defined contribution pension plan and qualifies as a deferred salary arrangement under section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (United States). Under the US Plan, participating employees may defer 100% of their pre-tax earnings subject to any statutory limitations. Celestica may make contributions for the benefit of eligible employees. The US Plan allows employees to choose how their account balances are invested on their behalf within a range of investment options provided by third party fund managers.

During the year ended December 31, 2007, Celestica contributed $13,500 in the aggregate to the US Plan for the benefit of Mr. Muhlhauser, which amount is included in the Summary Compensation table under "All Other Compensation". Except as described above, no other amounts were contributed by Celestica during the year ended December 31, 2007 for the purpose of providing pension, retirement or similar benefits for Mr. Muhlhauser.

The Canadian Pension Plan has a defined benefit and a defined contribution portion, the defined benefit plan provides for a maximum of 30 years' service and retirement eligibility at the earlier of 30 years' service or age 55.

Messrs. Peri, Nicoletti and Suri and Ms. DelBianco participate only in the defined contribution portion of the Canadian Pension Plan. The defined contribution portion of the Canadian Pension Plan allows employees to choose how Celestica contributions are invested on their behalf within a range of investment options provided by third party fund managers. Celestica's contributions to this plan on behalf of an employee range from 3% to 6.75% of salary and paid annual incentive based on the number of years of service. Retirement benefits depend upon the performance of the investment options chosen. Messrs. Nicoletti, Peri and Suri and Ms. DelBianco participate in Celestica's non-contributory pension plan (the "Canadian Pension Plan"). They also participate in an unregistered supplementary pension plan (the "Supplementary Plan") that provides benefits equal to the difference between the benefits determined in accordance with the formula set out in the Canadian Pension Plan and Canada Revenue Agency maximum pension benefits.

The 2007 percentage contribution and amounts are outlined below in Table 15. All amounts are included in the Summary Compensation table under "All Other Compensation".

Table 15: Retirement Benefit

2007 Canadian Contributions
Name		Contribution %		Contribution C$
Paul Nicoletti		5.20%		$	23,296
John Peri		6.00%		$	34,280
Elizabeth L. DelBianco		3.75%		$	17,684
Rahul Suri		3.75%		$	19,502

Mr. Puppi participated only in the defined benefit portion of the Canadian Pension Plan. The benefit provided under this plan is equal to the benefit entitlement accrued under the relevant IBM plan prior to October 22, 1996, the date Celestica was divested from IBM, plus the benefits earned under the Canadian Pension Plan since that date. The terms of the Canadian Pension Plan, which were accepted by certain employees when they transferred to Celestica, mirrored those of the IBM pension plan in place at the time of divestiture. The Canadian Pension Plan is of a modified career average design with benefits based on a three-year average of salary and paid annual incentive to December 31 of a designated base year (the "Base Year"). In 2006, the Base Year was updated to December 31, 2005 and may be updated from time to time until December 31, 2009. Benefits for the period from October 22, 1996 to December 31, 2005 are calculated by multiplying years of service by the sum of (a) 0.9% of the three-year average of salary and paid annual incentive up to the yearly maximum pensionable earnings ("YMPE") level and (b) 1.45% of the three-year average of salary and paid annual

33

---

incentive above the YMPE. Until the next Base Year update, benefits for each year after December 31, 2005 equals the sum of (a) 0.9% of that year's salary and paid annual incentive up to the YMPE level, and (b) 1.45% of the salary and paid annual incentive for that year above the YMPE. The defined benefit portion of the Canadian Pension Plan also provides for supplementary early retirement benefits from the date of early retirement to age 65.

The following table sets forth the estimated aggregate annual benefits payable under the defined benefit portion of the Canadian Pension Plan and the Supplementary Plan based on average earnings and years of service.

During the year ended December 31, 2007, Celestica accrued an aggregate of C$94,762 to provide pension benefits to Messrs. Nicoletti, Peri and Suri and Ms. DelBianco pursuant to the Canadian Pension Plan. No other amounts were contributed or accrued during the year ended December 31, 2007 for the purpose of providing pension, retirement or similar benefits for Messrs. Nicoletti, Peri and Suri and Ms. DelBianco.

Supplementary Disclosure on Pension Arrangements

---

Pension benefits under the defined benefit portion of the Canadian Pension Plan and the Supplementary Plan are considered to be an integral part of the overall total compensation for certain executives, including Mr. Puppi, the only Named Executive Officer who participated in the defined benefit portion. In considering the value of the pension benefits provided to Mr. Puppi under the defined benefit portion of the Canadian Pension Plan and the Supplementary Plan, the Compensation Committee considers the annual pension service costs, the accrued liability associated with the pension and the annual pension that would have been available to Mr. Puppi upon retirement. The following table illustrates changes in the accrued liability from December 31, 2006 to December 31, 2007, including the annual pension service cost for the 2007 fiscal year for Mr. Puppi, calculated using the same actuarial assumptions used for determining year-end pension plan liabilities in Celestica's financial statements for the financial year ended December 31, 2007, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Table 17: Supplemental Disclosure on Pension Arrangements

Name		Accrued Pension Liability at December 31, 2006(1) (C$)		2007 Service Cost(1) (C$)		Other Special Termination Benefits Change in Liability in 2007(2) (C$)		Other Change in Liability in 2007(3) (C$)		Accrued Pension Liability at December 31, 2007(1) (C$)
Anthony Puppi		4,477,000		35,500		1,224,000		(361,500	)	5,375,000

---

⁽¹⁾

Pension service cost is the value of the projected pension earned for the year of service credited for the 2007 fiscal year. Accrued pension liability is the value of the projected pension earned for service up to December 31, 2006 or December 31, 2007, as indicated. For comparability and consistency, these values have been determined using the same actuarial assumptions as are used for determining the year-end pension plan liabilities disclosed in Celestica Inc.'s financial statements, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These are estimated amounts based on these assumptions and may change over time. The method used to determine these amounts will not necessarily be identical to the method used by other companies and as a result the figures may not be directly comparable across companies. This method of valuation makes no allowance for different tax treatment of registered pension plans versus supplemental pension benefits.

⁽²⁾

The other special termination benefits change in the obligation includes the impact of special benefits granted to Mr. Puppi upon his retirement on April 1, 2007.

⁽³⁾

Other changes in obligation include amounts attributable to interest accruing on the beginning-of-year obligation, experience gains and losses other than those associated with compensation levels and changes in actuarial assumptions. The most significant changes for the 2007 fiscal year relates to the change in the applicable discount rate from 5.10% to 5.50%.

Mr. Muhlhauser

Mr. Muhlhauser's employment agreement provides that he is entitled to certain severance benefits if, during a change in control period at the Corporation (defined in his agreement as the period commencing on the date the Corporation enters into a binding agreement for a change in control, announces an intention to effect a change in control or the board adopts a resolution that a change in control has occurred and ending three years after the completion of the change in control or, if a change in control is not completed, one year following the commencement of the period), he is terminated without cause or resigns for reasons specified in his agreement.

In addition, each of their agreements provides (a) for a cash settlement to cover benefits that would otherwise be payable during the severance period, and (b) for the continuation of contributions to their pension and retirement plans until the third anniversary following their termination.

Upon a change in control or upon termination without cause during a change in control period or resignation for reasons specified in each of their agreements during a change in control period, (a) the options granted to each of them vest immediately, (b) the PCOs and PSUs granted to each of them vest immediately at target level of performance, unless the terms of a PCO or PSU grant provide otherwise or on such other more favourable terms as the Board in its discretion may provide, and (c) the RSUs granted to each of them shall vest immediately.

Outside a change in control period, upon termination without cause or resignation for reasons specified in each of their agreements, they are entitled to payments and benefits that are substantially similar to those provided following termination during a change in control period, except that (a) there is no accelerated vesting of options, PCOs, PSUs and RSUs, and (b) the Corporation's obligations regarding severance payments, the continuation of benefit plans and contributions to or continuation of their pension and retirement plans are for a two-year period following termination.

Upon termination without cause or resignation for reasons specified in the Executive Guidelines within two years following a change in control of the Corporation, Mr. Peri is entitled to a severance payment equal to two times his annual base salary and the lower of target or actual annual incentive for the previous year, subject to adjustment for factors including length of service, together with a portion of his annual incentive for the year prorated to the date of termination. The 2008 annual base salary and 2008 target annual incentive for Mr. Peri are as follows:

Outside of the two-year period following a change in control, upon termination without cause, Mr. Peri is entitled to payments and benefits that are substantially similar to those provided following a termination within two years of a change in control, except that there is no accelerated vesting of options, RSUs and PSUs.

Mr. Puppi

Mr. Puppi's employment agreement, except for certain non-competition, confidentiality and non-solicitation provisions, was not in effect as of December 31, 2007 because his employment terminated during the year.

⁽¹⁾

Excluding securities that may be issued upon exercise of outstanding options, warrants and rights.

⁽²⁾

The total number of securities to be issued under all equity compensation plans approved by shareholders represent 3.65% of the total number of outstanding shares (ESPO — 0.04%; IMS — 0.03%; MSL — 0.11%; LTIP (Options) 3.41%; and LTIP (RSUs) — 0.06%).

The LTIP is the only securities-based compensation plan providing for the issuance of securities from treasury under which grants have been made and continue to be made by Celestica since the company was listed on the TSX. Under the LTIP, the Board of Directors may in its discretion grant from time to time stock options, performance shares, performance share units and stock appreciation rights ("SARs") to employees and consultants, the eligible participants, of Celestica and affiliated entities.

Under the LTIP, up to 29,000,000 Subordinate Voting Shares may be issued from treasury. The number of Subordinate Voting Shares which may be issued from treasury under the LTIP to directors is limited to 2,000,000; however, no more option grants under the LTIP will be made to directors. Under the LTIP, as of February 25, 2008, 1,936,728 Subordinate Voting Shares have been issued from treasury and 9,798,972 Subordinate Voting Shares are issuable under outstanding options. Also as of February 25, 2008, 27,063,272 Subordinate Voting Shares are reserved for issuance from treasury under the LTIP. In addition, Celestica may satisfy obligations under the LTIP by acquiring Subordinate Voting Shares in the market.

The LTIP limits the number of Subordinate Voting Shares that may be (a) reserved for issuance to insiders (as defined under TSX rules for this purpose), and (b) issued within a one-year period to insiders pursuant to options or rights granted

38

---

pursuant to the LTIP, together with Subordinate Voting Shares reserved for issuance under any other employee-related plan of Celestica or options for services granted by Celestica, in each case to 10% of the aggregate issued and outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares and MVS of Celestica. The LTIP also limits the number of Subordinate Voting Shares which may be reserved for issuance to any one participant pursuant to options or SARs granted pursuant to the LTIP, together with Subordinate Voting Shares reserved for issuance under any other employee-related plan of Celestica or options for services granted by Celestica, to 5% of the aggregate issued and outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares and MVS of Celestica.

Options issued under the LTIP may be exercised during a period determined under the LTIP, which may not exceed ten years. The LTIP also provides that, unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, options will terminate within specified time periods following the termination of employment of an eligible participant with Celestica or affiliated entities. The exercise price for options issued under the LTIP is the closing price for Celestica Subordinate Voting Shares on the day prior to the grant. The TSX closing price is used for Canadian employees and the NYSE closing price is used for all other employees. The exercise of options may be subject to vesting conditions, including specific time schedules for vesting and performance-based conditions such as share price and financial results. The grant to, or exercise of options by, an eligible participant may also be subject to certain share ownership requirements. The LTIP also provides that Celestica may, at its discretion, make loans or provide guarantees for loans to assist participants to purchase Subordinate Voting Shares upon the exercise of options or to assist the participants to pay any income tax exigible upon exercise of options provided that in no event shall any such loan be outstanding for more than 10 years from the date of the option grant. Celestica has no such loans or guarantees outstanding.

Under the LTIP, eligible participants may be granted SARs, a right to receive a cash amount equal to the difference between the market price of the Subordinate Voting Shares at the time of the grant and the market price of such shares at the time of exercise of the SAR. The market price used for this purpose is the weighted average price for Celestica Subordinate Voting Shares on the TSX during the period five trading days preceding the exercise date. Such amounts may also be payable by the issuance of Subordinate Voting Shares. The exercise of SARs may also be subject to conditions similar to those which may be imposed on the exercise of stock options.

Under the LTIP, eligible participants may be allocated performance units in the form of PSUs or RSUs, which represent the right to receive an equivalent number of Subordinate Voting Shares at a specified release date. The issuance of such shares may be subject to vesting requirements similar to those described above with respect to the exercisability of options and SARs, including such time or performance-based conditions as may be determined by the Board of Directors in its discretion. The number of Subordinate Voting Shares which may be issued from the treasury of Celestica under the performance unit program is limited to 2,000,000 and the number of Subordinate Voting Shares which may be issued pursuant to the performance unit program to any one person shall not exceed 1% of the aggregate issued and outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares and MVS of Celestica.

In 2005, Celestica amended the LTIP to provide that the number of grants awarded under the plan in any given year cannot exceed 1.2% of the total number of shares outstanding.

The interests of any participant under the LTIP or in any option, SAR or performance unit are not transferable, subject to limited exceptions.

The issuance of RSUs and PSUs may be subject to vesting requirements, including any time-based conditions established by the Board of Directors at its discretion. The vesting of PSUs also requires the achievement of specified performance-based conditions as determined by the Compensation Committee and approved by the Board of Directors.

SUPPLEMENTARY DISCLOSURE: TOTAL COMPENSATION STATEMENTS

The following statements provide a consolidated total compensation overview for Named Executive Officers currently employed by the Corporation in order to provide additional information for our shareholders. Much of the information outlined below appears on prior pages in the disclosure form required by applicable securities legislation. The Corporation believes the information contained in the format below provides helpful compensation disclosure by translating all equity grants to an expected compensation value. It should be noted that the compensation information in the following tables is shown in US dollars. For those Named Executive Officers that are paid in Canadian dollars, compensation has been converted into US dollars using the average exchange rate for the applicable year. Given the significant appreciation in the Canadian dollar over the last several years, a portion of the change in compensation over the last three years as reported is attributable to the exchange rate. It is recommended that you refer to the footnotes of each table, which show the exchange rates used to convert Canadian dollars into US dollars for reporting purposes.

Performance Equity (PCO and PSU) amounts are based on the "target" compensation value which represents market median compensation. The amount that will actually vest is dependent on corporate performance and could vary between 0% and 200% of the amounts shown as described on pages 22 and 23 of this Circular.

⁽²⁾

Option related compensation is calculated using a Black Scholes factor of 0.50 for the 2007 grant, 0.55 for the 2006 grant and 0.66 for prior grants.

INDEBTEDNESS OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

As at February 25, 2008, no current or former executive officers or members of the Board of Celestica or its subsidiaries and none of their respective associates were indebted to the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries (or had indebtedness that was the subject of a guarantee, support agreement, letter of credit or similar arrangement or understanding provided by the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries) in connection with the purchase of Subordinate Voting Shares or in connection with any other transaction. The aggregate indebtedness of all employees to the Corporation as of February 25, 2008 was less than $50,000, none of which related to the purchase of securities of the Corporation.

---

---

DIRECTORS' AND OFFICERS' INDEMNIFICATION AND LIABILITY INSURANCE

Celestica and certain of its subsidiaries have entered into indemnification agreements with certain of the directors and officers of Celestica and its subsidiaries. These agreements generally provide that Celestica or the subsidiary of Celestica which is a party to the agreement, as applicable, will indemnify the director or officer in question (including his or her heirs and legal representatives) against all costs, charges and expenses incurred by him or her in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding in which the individual is involved by reason of being or having been a director or officer of the Corporation or a subsidiary thereof, provided that he or she has acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Corporation or a subsidiary thereof.

Celestica participates in a common or shared primary policy which benefits Onex and a select group of Onex companies. This policy, which was renewed on November 29, 2007 for a twelve-month period, provides for aggregate coverage of $20 million with a sub-limit of $10 million per claim per insured entity. The policy protects directors and officers against liability incurred by them while acting in their capacities as directors and officers of Celestica and its subsidiaries. Coverage under this policy is available to all Onex group companies on a first-come basis to the aggregate amount of coverage. Celestica also purchases supplemental insurance coverage which benefits Celestica only. This policy provides for Celestica-specific coverage in the event that capacity available under the Onex group companies umbrella policy has been exhausted. This policy provides aggregate coverage of $70 million for a twelve-month period commencing November 29, 2007. Celestica's cost for these policies is approximately $2 million annually. Limits available under the policy are in excess of a self-retention or deductible of $1 million for each loss or claim depending on the type of claim.

INTEREST OF INFORMED PERSONS IN MATERIAL TRANSACTIONS

Celestica did not enter into any transactions with informed persons, directly or indirectly, during 2007, no such transactions are proposed, and, other than the arrangement described below, Celestica does not have any such arrangements in place with such persons. "Informed persons" include directors and executive officers of Celestica and its subsidiaries and shareholders holding or having control over more than 10% of the voting rights attached to any class of Celestica's voting securities, the directors and executive officers of such shareholders, and any associates or affiliates of any such persons. Celestica and Onex are parties to an Amended and Restated Management Services Agreement dated July 1, 2003 (the "Agreement") under which Onex has agreed to provide certain strategic planning, financial and support services to Celestica of such nature as Celestica may reasonably request from time to time having regard to Onex's experience, expertise and personnel or the personnel of its subsidiaries, as the case may be. Celestica has agreed to pay Onex certain fees under the Agreement, including a base fee and a performance incentive fee, if any. The base fee is equal to approximately $1 million per year. The incentive fee payable in any year is tied to Celestica's performance. The Agreement also provides that if Celestica uses Onex management personnel to provide investment banking or financial advice in connection with any acquisition, Onex will be entitled to receive fees consistent, in the determination of the Board of Directors of Celestica, with fees typically paid for financial advice in such circumstances to investment bankers or other expert advisors at arm's length to Celestica. The Agreement terminates on December 31, 2008, subject to automatic termination 30 days after the first day upon which Onex ceases to hold at least one MVS. In the event of a change in control of Celestica, Onex is entitled to receive an amount equal to the difference between $10 million and the aggregate amount of base fees and incentive fees paid to Onex during the term of the Agreement, and no further base or incentive fees are payable thereafter. During 2007, Celestica paid to Onex fees of approximately $1,246,000.00. The payment obligations under the Agreement are not considered to be material to either Celestica or Onex.

STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRACTICES

National Instrument 58-101 (the "Instrument", together with National Policy 58-201, the "CSA Governance Requirements") of the Canadian Securities Regulators (the "CSA") requires the Corporation to disclose, on an annual basis, its corporate governance practices with reference to a specific form set out in the Instrument. The Toronto Stock Exchange requires the Corporation to comply with the Instrument. The disclosure set out in tabular form in Schedule A beginning on page A-1 reflects the CSA Governance Requirements.

At Celestica, we remain committed to the highest standards of corporate governance in all aspects of our decision-making processes. Celestica's Board of Directors has put into place systems and procedures that support independent, thoughtful and informed decisions. As governance regulation has evolved over the past several years, Celestica has been committed to adapting its practices to reflect changing standards. Today, Celestica meets and often exceeds not only corporate governance-related legal requirements in Canada and the United States, but also the best practices recommended by securities regulators. Celestica is listed on the NYSE and, although we are not required to comply with all of the NYSE corporate governance requirements to which we would be subject if we were a US corporation, our governance practices differ significantly in only one respect from those required of US domestic issuers. Unlike under NYSE rules, there is no requirement in Canada for shareholder approval of compensation arrangements involving share purchases in the open market. Celestica complies with the TSX rules. The TSX rules require shareholder approval of share compensation arrangements involving new issuances of shares, and that shareholders approve the amendment provisions in such arrangements.

SCHEDULE A

STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRACTICES

---

The Corporation's corporate governance disclosure required by National Instrument 58-101 — Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices is set out below.

Board of Directors
	Director Independence
A majority of our directors are independent. Independence has been determined in the case of each director on the basis of whether that director has a direct or indirect material relationship (as defined for the purposes of National Instrument 58-101) (other than as a director of Celestica) with Celestica, any of Celestica's subsidiaries or with Onex Corporation ("Onex") (which holds approximately 79% of the voting rights attaching to shares of Celestica). Mr. Etherington is a director of Onex. He is not an employee or executive officer of Onex and, accordingly, under the rules of the Canadian Securities Administrators, he is not deemed to be not independent. In the view of the Board of Directors of Celestica, he does not have any material relationships that would reasonably be expected to interfere with the exercise of his independent judgment in relation to Celestica. Accordingly, Mr. Etherington is considered to be an independent director of Celestica.
The following chart details the Board's determination with respect to the independence status of each director:

Table of Directors' Relationships to the Corporation
Name		Independent		Not Independent		Reason not Independent
Robert L. Crandall		X
William A. Etherington		X
Richard S. Love		X
Craig A. Muhlhauser				X		President and CEO of Celestica
Gerald W. Schwartz				X		Chairman and CEO of Onex
Charles W. Szuluk		X
Don Tapscott		X

	Directors' Memberships on the Boards of Other Public Companies
The following chart lists the other public companies on which Celestica's directors serve:

Director		Public Corporation Boards on which the Director Serves
Robert L. Crandall		Anixter International Inc. and The Halliburton Company
William A. Etherington		Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, MDS Inc. and Onex Corporation
Richard S. Love		None
Craig A. Muhlhauser		None
Gerald W. Schwartz		Onex, Indigo Books & Music Inc. and the Bank of Nova Scotia
Charles W. Szuluk		None
Don Tapscott		None

	Meetings of Independent Directors
The independent directors meet separately as part of every Board meeting, unless the meeting is a telephone meeting outside the regular Board schedule. Mr. Crandall, the Chairman of the Board, presides at all such meetings. In 2007, the independent directors met six times in these in camera sessions.

A-1

---

	Independent Chairman
Mr. Crandall is the Chairman of the Board and is an independent director. In this capacity, Mr. Crandall is responsible for the effective functioning of the Board. As part of his duties, he establishes procedures to govern the Board's work and ensure the Board's full discharge of its duties. A complete position description for the Chairman is posted in the Investor Relations/Corporate Governance section of our website at www.celestica.com. Celestica shareholders and other interested parties may communicate directly to the Chairman any concerns that they may have regarding Celestica. See the contact information under How Can I Contact the Independent Directors and Non-Executive Chairman? on page 3 of this Circular.
	Attendance Record
For a complete record of our directors' attendance at Board meetings and those Committees of which they are members, see the Attendance of Directors at Board and Committee Meetings on page 14 of this Circular.
Board Mandate
The mandate of the Board of Directors is attached to this Circular as Schedule B and is posted on our website at www.celestica.com. See Investor Relations/Corporate Governance.
Under the mandate, the Board of Directors has explicitly assumed stewardship responsibility for the Corporation.
Position Descriptions
	Position Descriptions of the Chairman of the Board and Committee Chairs
The Board has approved position descriptions for:
•    the Chairman of the Board; and
•    the Chairman of each Committee of the Board.
These position descriptions are posted on our website at www.celestica.com. See Investor Relations/ Corporate Governance. The Chairman of the Board and of each Committee is available to respond to questions from shareholders at Celestica's annual meeting.
	Position Description of the Chief Executive Officer
The Board has developed a written position description for the CEO. The CEO has full responsibility for the day-to-day operation of the Corporation's business in accordance with Celestica's strategic plan. The CEO must develop and implement processes that will ensure the achievement of the Corporation's financial and operating goals. The complete position description of the CEO is posted on our website at www.celestica.com. See Investor Relations/Corporate Governance.
Orientation and Continuing Education
	Orientation for New Directors
The Corporation's orientation program helps new directors contribute effectively to the work of the Board as soon as possible. As part of this program, new directors receive written materials on Celestica's structure, organization, current priorities and issues that have been considered by the Board and each of its Committees. New directors also attend meetings with the Chairman and key executives and receive presentations from senior management on all aspects of the Corporation's business. Through this orientation program, new directors have the opportunity to become familiar with the operations and culture of the organization and the role played by the Board in that context.

A-2

---

	Ongoing Director Development
Through the Board's continuing education program, directors are provided with information about Celestica's business and industry through management presentations, analyst reports and regular business updates from the CEO. Celestica also provides each director with a membership in the National Association of Corporate Directors to keep them up to date on the role of an effective Board member and help them stay in touch with issues of common interest to all directors.
Ethical Business Conduct
	Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and Promotion of Ethical Conduct
Celestica's Business Conduct Governance Policy (the "Policy") applies to all the Corporation's directors, officers and employees. In addition, Celestica's CEO, senior finance officers and all personnel in the finance area are subject to Celestica's Finance Code of Professional Business Conduct.
Both of these codes may be obtained on Celestica's website at www.celestica.com. See Investor Relations/ Corporate Governance.
The Board reviews the Policy and the process for administering the Policy on an annual basis. Management provides regular reports to the Board on compliance with the Policy.
All employees above a designated level are required to certify compliance with the Policy annually. In 2007 we also began an on-line training program for the Policy. The Policy requires ethical behaviour from employees and encourages employees to report breaches of the Policy to their manager. From the time that Celestica was established as a separate public company, it has provided a mechanism whereby employees could report unethical behaviour on an anonymous basis. In 2004, the Corporation launched the Celestica Ethics Hotline which provides another method for employees in every jurisdiction in the world to report unethical conduct, on an anonymous basis if they so choose.
As part of the written mandate of the Board of Directors, the Board has adopted as a minimum standard that directors must demonstrate integrity and high ethical standards. The mandate also requires the Board, to the extent feasible, to satisfy itself as to the integrity of the Corporation's CEO and other executive officers and that the CEO and other executive officers create a culture of integrity throughout the organization.
Celestica's Corporate Values, which were created at the company's inception, underpin Celestica's commitment to strong business ethics. A copy of Celestica's Corporate Values may be obtained on Celestica's website at www.celestica.com. See About Celestica/Corporate Governance.
	Material Interests in Transactions
The Corporation has no contracts or other arrangements in place in which any of its directors or officers has a material interest and does not anticipate entering into any such arrangement. If any such arrangement were to arise, it would first be considered by the Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors (in each case, without the participation of the director who had the material interest in question).
Celestica and Onex are parties to an Amended and Restated Management Services Agreement which is described in detail on page 45 of this Circular. The Agreement is not material to either corporation. Any amendments to the Agreement would be approved by the Celestica board without the participation of Mr. Schwartz.
Audit Committee
The Board has a fully independent Audit Committee (currently comprised of Robert Crandall (Chairman), William Etherington and Don Tapscott). Shareholders may obtain further information regarding Celestica's Audit Committee in Part I, Item 6C on page 75 and Part II, Item 16A on page 93 of Celestica's 2007 Annual Information Form and may review the Audit Committee's mandate on our website at www.celestica.com. See Investor Relations/Corporate Governance.

Nomination of Directors
	Director Nomination Process
Recognizing that new directors may be periodically required, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee maintains a matrix of the competencies and skills each existing director possesses for the purpose of identifying any gaps and determining the skill set of a potential director that it believes would best suit Celestica. This has helped the Committee develop profiles of individuals whose background and skills would complement those of the existing directors. The Committee maintains an evergreen list of candidates from which it could draw when it is appropriate to consider new candidates for election to the Board.
	Independence and Powers of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
The Governance Committee is a fully independent committee of the Board and is currently comprised of Robert Crandall (Chairman), William Etherington, Richard Love and Don Tapscott.
The mandate of the Committee is posted on our website at www.celestica.com. See Investor Relations/Corporate Governance.
The Committee is responsible for:
•    developing and recommending governance guidelines for Celestica (and to recommend changes to those guidelines);
•    identifying individuals qualified to become members of the Board; and
•    recommending director nominees to be put before the shareholders at each annual meeting.
The Committee and its Chairman are appointed annually by the Board. As part of each meeting, Committee members meet without any member of management present. The Committee has the authority to retain and compensate any consultants and advisors it considers necessary to fulfill its mandate.
	Election of Directors
On October 26, 2006, the Board adopted a policy that requires in an uncontested election of directors that: shareholders will be able to vote in favour of, or to withhold from voting, separately for each director nominee; if, with respect to any particular nominee, other than the controlling shareholder or a representative of the controlling shareholder, the number of shares withheld from voting by shareholders other than the controlling shareholders and its associates exceeds the number of shares that they vote in favour of the nominee, then the Board will determine, and in so doing will give due weight to the rights of the controlling shareholder, whether to require the nominee to resign from the Board; if the Board determines that such a nominee should resign, the nominee will resign and the Board will accept the resignation; it is expected that such a determination by the Board will be made, and announced, within 90 days after the applicable shareholders' meeting; and, subject to any corporate law restrictions, the Board may leave any resultant vacancy unfilled until the next annual shareholders' meeting or it may fill the vacancy through the appointment of a new director whom the Board considers to merit the confidence of the shareholders or it may call a special meeting of shareholders at which there will be presented a management slate to fill the vacant position or positions.

Compensation
	Determination of Directors' and Officers' Compensation
In setting the compensation of Celestica's officers, the Compensation Committee targets a median level of compensation for each component of the officer's compensation package (base salary, annual incentives, mid-term and long-term incentives and benefits) compared to a group of companies in closely-related industries. For more detail on the philosophy and approach adopted by the Compensation Committee, see the Report on Executive Compensation on page 17 of this Circular.
Director compensation is set by the Board on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee and in accordance with director compensation guidelines established by the Governance Committee. The Compensation Committee retains an independent compensation consultant to provide it with market advice. The Board feels that the remuneration paid to directors is appropriate in light of the time commitment and risks and responsibilities involved.
	Independence and Powers of the Compensation Committee
The Board has a fully independent Compensation Committee (currently comprised of William Etherington (Chairman), Robert Crandall, Charles Szuluk and Don Tapscott). The Committee and its Chairman are appointed annually by the Board. As part of each meeting, Committee members meet without any member of management present. The Committee has the authority to retain and compensate any consultants and advisors it considers necessary.
The Committee's responsibilities include:
•    reviewing and recommending to the Board compensation of the CEO;
•    recommending to the Board non-CEO compensation, incentive-based plans and equity-based plans; and
•    producing compensation disclosure in public documents, including the Committee's annual report on executive compensation, which is included in the Corporation's Management Information Circular.
The full mandate of the Compensation Committee is posted on our website at www.celestica.com. See Investor Relations/Corporate Governance.
	External Advisors Regarding Director and Executive Compensation
The Committee has retained Towers Perrin as its independent compensation consultant to assist in the discharge of its mandate. For a description of Towers Perrin's role and mandate, please see Report on Executive Compensation — Independent Advice 17 of this Circular.

Other Board Committees
	Executive Committee
The Board currently has a fully independent Executive Committee, comprised of Robert Crandall (Chairman) and William Etherington.
The purpose of the Executive Committee is to provide a degree of flexibility and ability to respond to time-sensitive matters where it is impractical to call a meeting of the full Board. The Committee reviews such matters and makes such recommendations thereon to the Board as it considers appropriate, including matters designated by the Board as requiring Committee review. Members of the Committee also meet approximately once a month on an informal basis to review and stay informed about current business issues. The Board is briefed on these issues at their regularly scheduled meetings or, if the matter is material, between regularly scheduled meetings. The mandate of the Executive Committee is posted on our website at www.celestica.com. See Investor Relations/Corporate Governance.
All decisions of the Committee are submitted to the Board for approval or ratification.
Assessments
	Assessments of the Board and its Directors
The Mandate of the Board of Directors requires the Board to evaluate and review the performance of the Board, its committees and its directors. The scope, focus and requirements of the evaluation and review will vary from year to year. The Board of Directors of Celestica has retained an external advisor to assist in these evaluations. The evaluation process for a given year will involve all of any of: a careful examination of individual directors, committees and the Board, and of its role, objectives, and relationship with management, and peer review by the directors. The results of the evaluation, and feedback on the evaluation process itself, are integrated into the next year's Board evaluation cycle.

Celestica Safe Harbour and Fair Disclosure Statement

This news release contains forward-looking statements related to our future growth, trends in our industry, our financial and or operational results, and our financial or operational performance. Such forward-looking statements are predictive in nature, and may be based on current expectations, forecasts or assumptions involving risks and uncertainties that could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements themselves. Such forward-looking statements may, without limitation, be preceded by, followed by, or include words such as "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "estimates," "intends," "plans," or similar expressions, or may employ such future or conditional verbs as "may", "will", "should," or "would," or may otherwise be indicated as forward-looking statements by grammatical construction, phrasing or context. The risks and uncertainties referred to above include, but are not limited to: variability of operating results among periods; inability to retain or grow our business due to execution problems resulting from significant headcount reductions, plant closures and product transfer associated with major restructuring activities; the effects of price competition and other business and competitive factors generally affecting the EMS industry; the challenges of effectively managing our operations during uncertain economic conditions; our dependence on a limited number of customers; our dependence on industries affected by rapid technological change; the challenge of responding to lower-than-expected customer demand; our ability to successfully manage our international operations; and delays in the delivery and/or general availability of various components used in the manufacturing process. Our forward looking statements are also based on various assumptions by management, which management believes are reasonable under the current circumstances, but may prove to be inaccurate and many of which may involve factors that are beyond the control of the Company.

These assumptions are based on management's current views with respect to current plans and events, and are and will be subject to the risks and uncertainties referred to above. These and other risks, uncertainties, factors and assumptions are discussed in the Company's various public filings at www.sedar.com and www.sec.gov, including our Form 20-F and subsequent reports on Form 6-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
