                               JABIL CIRCUIT, INC.

                        1992 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

      The following constitute the provisions of the 1992 Stock Purchase Plan of
Jabil Circuit, Inc. (the "Company").

      1.    Purpose. The purpose of the Plan is to provide employees of the
Company and its Designated Subsidiaries with an opportunity to purchase Common
Stock of the Company through accumulated payroll deductions. It is the intention
of the Company to have the Plan qualify as an "Employee Stock Purchase Plan"
under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The
provisions of the Plan shall, accordingly, be construed so as to extend and
limit participation in a manner consistent with the requirements of that section
of the Code.

of the Plan, the employment relationship shall be treated as continuing intact


   2



while the individual is on sick leave or other leave of absence approved by the
Company. Where the period of leave exceeds 90 days and the individual's right to

Common Stock is listed on any established stock exchange or a national market
system, including without limitation the National Market System of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Automated Quotation ("NASDAQ") System,
the Fair Market Value of a Share of Common Stock shall be the closing sales
price for such stock (or the closing bid, if no sales were reported), as quoted
on such system or exchange (or the exchange with the greatest volume of trading
in Common Stock) on the day of such determination as reported in the Wall Street
Journal or such other source as the Board deems reliable; (b) if the Common
Stock is quoted on the NASDAQ system (but not on the National Market System
thereof) or is regularly quoted by a recognized securities dealer but selling
prices are not reported, the Fair Market Value of a Share of Common Stock shall
be the mean between the high and low asked prices for the Common Stock on the
date of such determination, as reported in the Wall Street Journal or such
other source as the Board deems reliable; or (c) in the absence of an

Common Stock (the "Registration Statement") is declared effective by the
Commission and end on the last Trading Day occurring in the period ending June
30, 1993. The duration of Offering Periods may be changed pursuant to Section4
of this Plan.

            (l)   "Plan" shall mean this Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

            (m)   "Purchase Price" shall mean an amount equal to 85% of the Fair
Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Enrollment Date or on the
Exercise Date, whichever is lower.

            (n)   "Reserves" shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock

has been continuously employed by the Company for at least one (1) year and who
shall be employed by the Company on a given Enrollment Date shall be eligible to
participate in the Plan.

            (b)   Any provisions of the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding,
no Employee shall be granted an option under the Plan (i) if, immediately after
the grant, such Employee (or any other person whose stock would be attributed to
such Employee pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code) would own stock and/or
hold outstanding 


                                       -3-

   4


options to purchase stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total
combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or of any
subsidiary of the Company, or (ii) which permits his or her rights to purchase
stock under all employee stock purchase plans of the Company and its
subsidiaries to accrue at a rate which exceeds Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars
($25,000) worth of stock (determined at the fair market value of the shares at
the time such option is granted) for each calendar year in which such option is
outstanding at any time.

      4.    Offering Periods. The Plan shall be implemented by consecutive six
(6) month Offering Periods commencing on the first Trading Day on or after
January 1 and July 1 of each year, or on such other dates as the Board shall
determine; provided, however, that the first Offering Period shall commence on
the date on which the Company's Registration Statement is declared effective by
the Commission and shall end on the last Trading Day in the period ending June
30, 1993 (the "First Offering Period"). The second Offering Period under the
Plan shall commence with the first Trading Day on or after July 1, 1993. The
Plan shall continue thereafter until terminated in accordance with Section 19
hereof. Subject to the requirements of Section 19, the Board shall have the
power to change the duration of Offering Periods with respect to future
offerings without stockholder approval if such change is announced at least
fifteen (15) days prior to the scheduled beginning of the first Offering Period
to be affected.

      5.    Participation.

            (a)   An eligible Employee may become a participant in the Plan by
completing a subscription agreement authorizing payroll deductions in the form
of Exhibit A to this Plan and filing it with the Company's payroll office at
least ten (10) business days prior to the applicable Enrollment Date, unless a
later time for filing the subscription agreement is set by the Board for all
eligible Employees with respect to a given Offering Period.

            (b)   Payroll deductions for a participant shall commence on the
first payroll following the Enrollment Date and shall end on the last payroll in
the Offering Period to which such authorization is applicable, unless sooner
terminated by the participant as provided in Section 10.

      6.    Payroll Deductions.

            (a)   At the time a participant files his or her subscription
agreement, he or she shall elect to have payroll deductions


                                       -4-

   5


made on each pay day during the Offering Period in an amount not exceeding ten
percent (10%) of the Compensation which he or she receives on each pay day
during the Offering Period, and the aggregate of such payroll deductions during
the Offering Period shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the participant's
Compensation during said Offering Period.

            (b)   All payroll deductions made for a participant shall be
credited to his or her account under the Plan and will be with held in whole
percentages only. A participant may not make any additional payments into such
account.

            (c)   A participant may discontinue his or her participation in the
Plan as provided in Section 10 hereof, or may increase or decrease the rate of
his or her payroll deductions during the Offering Period by completing or filing
with the Company a new subscription agreement authorizing a change in payroll
reduction rate; provided, however, that a participant may not change his or her
rate of payroll deductions more than once in a given Offering Period. The change
in rate shall be effective with the first full payroll period following five (5)
business days after the Company's receipt of the new subscription agreement
unless the Company elects to process a given change in participation more
quickly. A participant's subscription agreement shall remain in effect for
successive Offering Periods unless terminated as provided in Section10.

            (d)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent necessary to
comply with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and Section 3(b) herein, a
participant's payroll deductions may be decreased to 0% at such time during any
Offering Period which is scheduled to end during the current calendar year (the
"Current Offering Period") that the aggregate of all payroll deductions which
were previously used to purchase stock under the Plan in a prior Offering Period
which ended during that calendar year plus all payroll deductions accumulated
with respect to the Current Offering Period equal $21,250. Payroll deductions
shall recommence at the rate provided in such participant's subscription
agreement at the beginning of the first Offering Period which is scheduled to
end in the following calendar year, unless terminated by the participant as
provided in Section 10.

            (e)   At the time the option is exercised, in whole or in part, or
at the time some or all of the Company's Common Stock issued under the Plan is
disposed of, the participant must make adequate provision for the Company's
federal, state, or other tax withholding obligations, if any, which arise upon
the exercise of 


                                       -5-

   6


the option or the disposition of the Common Stock. At any time, the Company may,
but will not be obligated to, withhold from the participant's compensation the
amount necessary for the Company to meet applicable withholding obligations,
including any withholding required to make available to the Company any tax
deductions or benefit attributable to sale or early disposition of Common Stock
by the Employee.

      7.    Grant of Option. On the Enrollment Date of each Offering Period,
each eligible Employee participating in such Offering Period shall be granted an
option to purchase on each Exercise Date during such Offering Period (at the
applicable Purchase Price) up to a number of shares of the Company's Common
Stock determined by dividing such Employee's payroll deductions accumulated
prior to such Exercise Date and retained in the Participant's account as of the
Exercise Date by the applicable Purchase Price; provided that in no event shall
an Employee be permitted to purchase during each Offering Period more than a
number of shares determined by dividing $12,500 by the fair market value of a
share of the Company's Common Stock on the Enrollment Date, and provided further
that such purchase shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Section
3(b) and 12 hereof. Exercise of the option shall occur as provided in Section 8,
unless the participant has withdrawn pursuant to Section 10, and shall expire on
the last day of the Offering Period.

      8.    Exercise of Option. Unless a participant withdraws from the Plan as
provided in Section 10 below, his or her option for the purchase of shares will
be exercised automatically on the Exercise Date, and the maximum number of full
shares subject to option shall be purchased for such participant at the
applicable Purchase Price with the accumulated payroll deductions in his or her
account. No fractional shares will be purchased; any payroll deductions
accumulated in a participant's account which are not sufficient to purchase a
full share shall be retained in the participant's account for the subsequent
Offering Period, subject to earlier withdrawal by the participant as provided in
Section 10. Any other monies left over in a participant's account after the
Exercise Date shall be returned to the participant. During a participant's life
time, a participant's option to purchase shares hereunder is exercisable only by
him or her.

      9.    Delivery. As promptly as practicable after each Exercise Date on
which a purchase of shares occurs, the Company shall arrange the delivery to
each participant, as appropriate, of a certificate representing the shares
purchased upon exercise of his or her option.



                                       -6-

      10.   Withdrawal; Termination of Employment.

            (a)   A participant may withdraw all but not less than all the
payroll deductions credited to his or her account and not yet used to exercise
his or her option under the Plan at any time by giving written notice to the
Company in the form of Exhibit B to this Plan. All of the participant's payroll
deductions credited to his or her account will be paid to such participant
promptly after receipt of notice of withdrawal and such participant's option for
the Offering Period will be automatically terminated, and no further payroll
deductions for the purchase of shares will be made during the Offering Period.
If a participant withdraws from an Offering Period, payroll deductions will not
resume at the beginning of the succeeding Offering Period unless the
participant delivers to the Company a new subscription agreement.

            (b)   Upon a participant's ceasing to be an Employee for any reason
or upon termination of a participant's employment relationship (as described in
Section 2(g)), the payroll deductions credited to such participant's account
during the Offering Period but not yet used to exercise the option will be
returned to such participant or, in the case of his or her death, to the person
or persons entitled thereto under Section 14, and such participant's option will
be automatically terminated.

            (c)   In the event an Employee fails to remain an Employee of the
Company for at least twenty (20) hours per week during an Offering Period in
which the Employee is a participant, he or she will be deemed to have elected to
withdraw from the Plan and the payroll deductions credited to his or her account
will be returned to such participant and such participant's option terminated.

            (d)   A participant's withdrawal from an Offering Period will not
have any effect upon his or her eligibility to participate in any similar plan
which may hereafter be adopted by the Company or in succeeding Offering Periods
which commence after the termination of the Offering Period from which the
participant withdraws.

            11.   Interest. No interest shall accrue on the payroll deductions
of a participant in the Plan.

            12.   Stock.

                  (a)   The maximum number of shares of the Company's Common
Stock which shall be made available for sale under the Plan shall be 802,500
shares, subject to adjustment upon changes in capitalization of the Company as
provided in Section 18. If on a given


                                       -7-

   8



Exercise Date the number of shares with respect to which options are to be
exercised exceeds the number of shares then available under the Plan, the
Company shall make a pro rata allocation of the shares remaining available for
purchase in as uniform a manner as shall be practicable and as it shall
determine to be equitable.

            (b)   The participant will have no interest or voting right in
shares covered by his option until such option has been exercised.

            (c)   Shares to be delivered to a participant under the Plan
will be registered in the name of the participant or in the name of the
participant and his or her spouse.

      13.   Administration.

            (a)   The Plan shall be administered by the Board of the Company or
a committee of members of the Board appointed by the Board. The Board or its
committee shall have full and exclusive discretionary authority to construe,
interpret and apply the terms of the Plan, to determine eligibility and to
adjudicate all disputed claims filed under the Plan. Every finding, decision and
determination made by the Board or its committee shall, to the full extent
permitted by law, be final and binding upon all parties. Members of the Board
who are eligible Employees are permitted to participate in the Plan, provided
that:

                  (1)   Members of the Board who are eligible to participate in
the Plan may not vote on any matter affecting the administration of the Plan or
the grant of any option pursuant to the Plan.

                  (2)   If a Committee is established to administer the Plan, no
member of the Board who is eligible to participate in the Plan may be a member
of the Committee.

            (b)   Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection (a) of this
Section 13, in the event that Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or any successor
provision ("Rule 16b-3") provides specific requirements for the administrators
of plans of this type, the Plan shall be only administered by such a body and in
such a manner as shall comply with the applicable requirements of Rule 16b-3.
Unless permitted by Rule 16b-3, no discretion concerning decisions regarding the
Plan shall be afforded to any committee or person that is not "disinterested" as
that term is used in Rule 16b-3.



                                       -8-

      14.   Designation of Beneficiary.

            (a)   A participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary
who is to receive any shares and cash, if any, from the participant's account
under the Plan in the event of such participant's death subsequent to an
Exercise Date on which the option is exercised but prior to delivery to such
participant of such shares and cash. In addition, a participant may file a
written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the
participant's account under the Plan in the event of such participant's death
prior to exercise of the option. If a participant is married and the designated
beneficiary is not the spouse, spousal consent shall be required for such
designation to be effective.

            (b)   Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the
participant at any time by written notice. In the event of the death of a
participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the
Plan who is living at the time of such participant's death, the Company shall
deliver such shares and/or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate
of the participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed
(to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver
such shares and/or cash to the spouse or to any one or more dependents or
relatives of the participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to
the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate.

      15.   Transferability. Neither payroll deductions credited to a
participant's account nor any rights with regard to the exercise of an option or
to receive shares under the Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or
otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by will, the laws of descent and
distribution or as provided in Section 14 hereof) by the participant. Any such
attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be without
effect, except that the Company may treat such act as an election to withdraw
funds from an Offering Period in accordance with Section 10.

      16.   Use of Funds. All payroll deductions received or held by the Company
under the Plan may be used by the Company for any corporate purpose, and the
Company shall not be obligated to segregate such payroll deductions.

      17.   Reports. Individual accounts will be maintained for each participant
in the Plan. Statements of account will be given to participating Employees at
least annually, which statements will set forth the amounts of payroll
deductions, the Purchase Price, 



                                       -9-

   10

the number of shares purchased and the remaining cash balance, if any.

      18.   Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization, Dissolution, Merger,
Asset Sale or Change of Control.

            (a)   Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by
the stockholders of the Company, the Reserves as well as the price per share of
Common Stock covered by each option under the Plan which has not yet been
exercised, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the
number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a stock split, reverse
stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Common
Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock
effected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however,
that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed
to have been "effected without receipt of consideration". Such adjustment shall
be made by the Board, whose determination in that respect shall be final,
binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no issue by the
Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares
of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall
be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject
to an option.

            (b)   Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed
dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Offering Period will terminate
immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action, unless otherwise
provided by the Board.

            (c)   Merger or Asset Sale. In the event of a proposed sale of all
or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or the merger of the Company
with or into another corporation, each option under the Plan shall be assumed or
an equivalent option shall be substituted by such successor corporation or a
parent or subsidiary of such successor corporation, unless the Board deter
mines, in the exercise of its sole discretion and in lieu of such assumption or
substitution, to shorten the Offering Period then in progress by setting a new
Exercise Date (the "New Exercise Date") or to cancel each outstanding right to
purchase and refund all sums collected from participants during the Offering
Period then in progress. If the Board shortens the Offering Period then in
progress in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a merger or sale
of assets, the Board shall notify each participant in writing, at least ten (10)
business days prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for his
option has been


                                      -10-

   11


changed to the New Exercise Date and that his option will be exercised
automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date he has
withdrawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 10. For purposes of
this Section, an option granted under the Plan shall be deemed to be assumed if,
following the sale of assets or merger, the option confers the right to
purchase, for each share of option stock subject to the option immediately prior
to the sale of assets or merger, the consideration (whether stock, cash or other
securities or property) received in the sale of assets or merger by holders of
Common Stock for each share of Common Stock held on the effective date of the
transaction (and if such holders were offered a choice of consideration, the
type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock); provided, however, that if such consideration received
in the sale of assets or merger was not solely common stock of the successor
corporation or its parent (as defined in Section 424(e) of the Code), the Board
may, with the consent of the successor corporation and the participant, provide
for the consideration to be received upon exercise of the option to be solely
common stock of the successor corporation or its parent equal in fair market
value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock and the
sale of assets or merger.

            The Board may, if it so determines in the exercise of its sole
discretion, also make provision for adjusting the Reserves, as well as the price
per share of Common Stock covered by each outstanding option, in the event the
Company effects one or more reorganizations, recapitalization, rights offerings
or other increases or reductions of shares of its outstanding Common Stock, and
in the event of the Company being consolidated with or merged into any other
corporation.

      19.   Amendment or Termination.

            (a)   The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time and for
any reason terminate or amend the Plan. Except as provided in Section 18, no
such termination can affect options previously granted, provided that an
Offering Period may be terminated by the Board of Directors on any Exercise
Date if the Board determines that the termination of the Plan is in the best
interests of the Company and its stockholders. Except as provided in Section
18, no amendment may make any change in any option theretofore granted which
adversely affects the rights of any participant. To the extent necessary to
comply with Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or
under Section 423 of the Code (or any successor rule or provision or any other
applicable law or regulation), the Company shall obtain 



                                      -11-
   12

stockholder approval in such a manner and to such a degree as required.

            (b)   Without stockholder consent and without regard to whether any
participant rights may be considered to have been "adversely affected," the
Board (or its committee) shall be entitled to change the Offering Periods,
limit the frequency and/or number of changes in the amount withheld during an
Offering Period, establish the exchange ratio applicable to amounts withheld in
a currency other than U.S. dollars, permit payroll withholding in excess of the
amount designated by a participant in order to adjust for delays or mistakes in
the Company's processing of properly completed withholding elections, establish
reasonable waiting and adjustment periods and/or accounting and crediting
procedures to ensure that amounts applied toward the purchase of Common Stock
for each participant properly correspond with amounts withheld from the
participant's Compensation, and establish such other limitations or procedures
as the Board (or its committee) determines in its sole discretion advisable
which are consistent with the Plan.

      20.   Notices. All notices or other communications by a participant to the
Company under or in connection with the Plan shall be deemed to have been duly
given when received in the form specified by the Company at the location, or by
the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof.

      21.   Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares. Shares shall not be issued with
respect to an option unless the exercise of such option and the issuance and
delivery of such shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all applicable
provisions of law, domestic or foreign, including, without limitation, the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements
of any stock exchange upon which the shares may then be listed, and shall be
further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such
compliance.

            As a condition to the exercise of an option, the Company may require
the person exercising such option to represent and warrant at the time of any
such exercise that the shares are being purchased only for investment and
without any present intention to sell or distribute such shares if, in the
opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any of
the aforementioned applicable provisions of law.

1.    ______________________________________ hereby elects to participate in the
      Jabil Circuit, Inc. (the "Company") 1992 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the
      "Purchase Plan") and subscribes to purchase shares of the Company's
      Common Stock in accordance with this Subscription Agreement and the
      Purchase Plan.

2.    I hereby authorize payroll deductions from each paycheck in the amount of
      _____% of my Compensation on each payday (not to exceed 10%) during the
      Offering Period in accordance with the Purchase Plan. (Please note that no
      fractional percentages are permitted.)

3.    I understand that said payroll deductions shall be accumulated for the
      purchase of shares of Common Stock at the applicable Purchase Price
      determined in accordance with the Purchase Plan. I understand that if I do
      not withdraw from an Offering Period, any accumulated payroll deductions
      will be used to automatically exercise my option.

4.    I have received a copy of the complete "Jabil Circuit, Inc. 1992 Employee
      Stock Purchase Plan." I understand that my participation in the Purchase
      Plan is in all respects subject to the terms of the Plan. I understand
      that the grant of the option by the Company under this Subscription
      Agreement is subject to obtaining stockholder approval of the Purchase
      Plan.

5.    Shares purchased for me under the Purchase Plan should be issued in the
      name(s) of:______________________________________________________________
      __________________________________________________________.

6.    I understand that if I dispose of any shares received by me pursuant to
      the Purchase Plan within 2 years after the Enrollment Date (the first day
      of the Offering Period during which I purchased such shares), I will be
      treated for federal income tax purposes as having received ordinary income
      at the time of such disposition in an amount equal to the excess of the
      fair market value of the shares at the time such shares were delivered to
      me over the price which I paid for the shares. I HEREBY AGREE TO NOTIFY
      THE COMPANY IN WRITING WITHIN 30 DAYS AFTER THE DATE OF ANY SUCH
      DISPOSITION AND I WILL MAKE ADEQUATE PROVISION FOR FEDERAL, STATE OR OTHER
      TAX WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS, IF ANY, WHICH ARISE UPON THE DISPOSITION OF
      THE COMMON STOCK. The Company may, but will not be obligated to, withhold
      from my compensation the amount necessary to meet any applicable
      withholding obligation including any withholding necessary to make
      available to the Company any tax deductions or benefits attributable to
      sale or early disposition of Common Stock by me. If I dispose of such
      shares at any time after the expiration of the 2-year holding period, I
      under stand that I will be treated for federal income tax purposes as
      having received income only at the time of such disposition, and that such
      income will be taxed as ordinary income only to the extent of an amount
      equal to the lesser of (1) the excess of the fair market value of the
      shares at the time of such disposition over the purchase price which I
      paid for the shares, or (2) 15% of the fair market value of the shares on
      the first day of the Offering Period. The remainder of the gain, if any,
      recognized on such disposition will be taxed as capital gain.

7.    I hereby agree to be bound by the terms of the Purchase Plan. The
      effectiveness of this Subscription Agreement is dependent upon my
      eligibility to participate in the Purchase Plan.

8.    In the event of my death, I hereby designate the following as my
      beneficiary(ies) to receive all payments and shares due me under the
      Purchase Plan:
