USE OF PROCEEDS
Our anticipated net proceeds from the sale of our common stock in the stock
offering are estimated to be approximately $142.9 million (approximately $164.6
million if the underwriters fully exercise their right to purchase additional
shares of common stock in the stock offering), after deducting the underwriting
discounts and estimated offering expenses payable by Maxtor. We will not receive
any proceeds from the sale of the DECS.

We will use up to approximately $55.0 million of the net proceeds from the
stock offering to prepay without penalty outstanding aggregate principal
indebtedness of $55.0 million owing to Hyundai Electronics America under a
subordinated note due July 31, 2001. The subordinated note bears interest at
six-month LIBOR plus 2%.

The remaining approximately $87.9 million of the net proceeds from the
stock offering (approximately $109.6 million if the underwriters fully exercise
their right to purchase additional shares of common stock in the stock offering)
will be used for capital expenditures, working capital and general corporate
purposes. Pending such uses, we will invest the net proceeds of the stock
offering in investment grade, interest-bearing securities.
