Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement, 3M entered into a Voting and Stock Option Agreement dated as of October 2, 2000 (the "Voting and Stock Option Agreement") with certain shareholders of Robinson Nugent (the "Robinson Nugent Shareholders") with respect to their Robinson Nugent Common Shares as follows: (i) Samuel C.

Under the Voting and Stock Option Agreement, each Robinson Nugent Shareholder has agreed to vote, or cause any holder of record of his Robinson Nugent Common Shares to vote, his Robinson Nugent Common Shares (including any Robinson Nugent Common Shares which such Robinson Nugent Shareholder may acquire after October 2, 2000) (the "Shares") and has granted 3M an irrevocable proxy to vote his Shares in favor of the Merger Agreement and against any Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement). Pursuant to the Voting and Stock Option Agreement, each Robinson Nugent Shareholder has also granted to 3M an irrevocable option (the "Option") to purchase his Shares at a price of $19 per share. 3M may exercise the Option in whole at any time prior to the earlier of (i) the effective time of the merger and (ii) fifteen business days after the date of termination of the Merger Agreement.
