This General Assignment and Assumption Agreement (this "Agreement") is
entered into as of _________ 2000 between MRV Communications, Inc., a Delaware

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meanings ascribed to such terms in Article IV hereof.
RECITALS
WHEREAS, MRV hereby and by certain other instruments of even date
herewith transfers or will transfer to Luminent effective as of the Separation
Date, certain assets of the Luminent Business owned by MRV in accordance with
the Master Separation and Distribution Agreement dated as of _______, 2000
between the MRV and Luminent (the "Separation Agreement").
WHEREAS, it is further intended between the parties that MRV transfers
or will transfer to Luminent, effective as of the Separation Date all of the
capital stock of: (i) Fiber Optics Communications, Inc. ("FOCI"), (ii) Optronics
International Corporation ("OIC"), and (iii) Quantum Optech, Inc., ("QOI") as
provided for in this Agreement, the Separation Agreement or the other
instruments and agreements provided for in the Separation Agreement.
WHEREAS, it is further intended between the parties that Luminent
assume certain of the liabilities related to the Luminent Business currently
owed by MRV, as provided in this Agreement, the Separation Agreement or the
other agreements and instruments provided for in the Separation Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the covenants and
agreements set forth below, the parties hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
CONTRIBUTION AND ASSUMPTION
Section 1.1 Contribution of Capital Stock, Assets and Assumption of Liabilities.
(a) Transfer of Assets. Effective on the Separation Date, MRV hereby
assigns, transfers, conveys and delivers (or will cause any applicable
Subsidiary to assign, transfer, convey and deliver) to Luminent, or to any
applicable Luminent Subsidiary, and Luminent hereby accepts from MRV, or
applicable MRV Subsidiary, and agrees to cause its applicable Luminent
Subsidiary to accept, all of MRV's and its applicable Subsidiary's respective
right, title and interest in the Luminent Assets, other than the Delayed
Transfer Assets; provided, however, that any Luminent Assets that are
specifically assigned or transferred pursuant to another Ancillary Agreement
shall not be assigned or transferred pursuant to this Section 1.1(a).
(b) Assumption of Liabilities. Effective on the Separation Date, Luminent
hereby assumes and agrees faithfully to perform and fulfill (or will cause any
applicable Subsidiary to assume, perform and fulfill), all the Luminent
Liabilities owed by MRV, other than the Delayed Transfer Liabilities, in
accordance with their respective terms. Thereafter, Luminent shall be
6
responsible (or will cause any applicable Subsidiary to be responsible) for all
Luminent Liabilities held by MRV, regardless of when or where such Liabilities
arose or arise, or whether the facts on which they are based occurred prior to,
on or after the date hereof, regardless of where or against whom such
Liabilities are asserted or determined (including any Luminent Liabilities
arising out of claims made by MRV's or Luminent's respective directors,
officers, consultants, independent contractors, employees or agents against any
member of the MRV Group or the Luminent Group) or whether asserted or determined
prior to the date hereof, and regardless of whether arising from or alleged to
arise from negligence, recklessness, violation of law, fraud or
misrepresentation by any member of the MRV Group or the Luminent Group or any of
their respective directors, officers, employees or agents.
(c) Delayed Transfer Assets and Liabilities. Each of the parties hereto
agrees that the Delayed Transfer Assets will be assigned, transferred, conveyed
and delivered, and the Delayed Transfer Liabilities will be assumed, in
accordance with the terms of the agreements that provide for such assignment,
transfer, conveyance and delivery, or such assumption, after the date of this
Agreement or as otherwise set forth on Schedule 1.1(c). Following such
assignment, transfer, conveyance and delivery of any Delayed Transfer Asset, or
the assumption of any Delayed Transfer Liability, the applicable Delayed
Transfer Asset or Delayed Transfer Liability shall be treated for all purposes
of this Agreement and the other Ancillary Agreements as a Luminent Asset or as a
Luminent Liability, as the case may be.
(d) Misallocated Assets. In the event that at any time or from time to time
(whether prior to, on or after the Separation Date), any party hereto (or any
member of such party's respective Group), shall receive or otherwise possess any
Asset that is allocated to any other Person pursuant to this Agreement or any
Ancillary Agreement, such party shall promptly transfer, or cause to be
transferred, such Asset to the Person so entitled thereto. Prior to any such
transfer, the Person receiving or possessing such Asset shall hold such Asset in
trust for any such other Person.
(e) Transfer of Capital Stock. Effective on the Separation Date, MRV hereby
assigns, transfers, conveys and delivers (or will cause any applicable
Subsidiary to assign, transfer, convey and deliver) to Luminent, and Luminent
hereby accepts from MRV, or the applicable MRV Subsidiary, all of MRV's and its
applicable Subsidiary's right, title and interest in the capital stock FOCI, QOI

the Luminent Balance Sheet that would be reflected in the consolidated balance

was prepared, including any business transaction processing that may occur on
MRV systems on behalf of Luminent during the period between separation date to
initialization of the processing systems required by Luminent;
(iv) all Assets that are used primarily by the Luminent Business at
the Separation Date but are not reflected in the Luminent Balance Sheet due to

before the first anniversary of the Distribution Date, given MRV or its
Subsidiaries notice that such Asset is a Luminent Asset;
(v) all Luminent Contingent Gains;
(vi) all Luminent Contracts;

the Luminent Balance Sheet was prepared;
3
8
(iii) all Liabilities that are related primarily to the Luminent
Business at the Separation Date but are not reflected in the Luminent Balance
Sheet due to mistake or unintentional omission; provided, however, that no

given Luminent or its Subsidiaries notice that such Liability is a Luminent
Liability;
(iv) all Luminent Contingent Liabilities;
(v) all Liabilities (other than Liabilities for Taxes), whether

to, arising out of or resulting from any act or failure to act by any director,
officer, employee, agent or representative (whether or not such act or failure
to act is or was within such Person's authority));
(2) the operation of any business conducted by any member of the
Luminent Group at any time after the Separation Date (including any Liability

director, officer, employee, agent or representative (whether or not such act or
failure to act is or was within such Person's authority)); or
(3) any Luminent Assets;
(vi) all Liabilities that are expressly contemplated by this
Agreement, Schedule 1.4(a)(vi), the Separation Agreement or any other Ancillary
Agreement (or the Schedules hereto or thereto) as Liabilities to be assumed by
Luminent or any member of the Luminent Group, and all agreements, obligations
and Liabilities of any member of the Luminent Group under this Agreement or any
of the Ancillary Agreements; and
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Luminent Liabilities shall not include the
Excluded Liabilities referred to in Section 1.4(b) below.

member of the MRV Group under the Separation Agreement, this Agreement or any
other Ancillary Agreement.
Section 1.5 Methods of Transfer and Assumption.
(a) Terms of Other Ancillary Agreements Govern. The parties shall enter
into the other Ancillary Agreements, on or about the date of this Agreement. To
the extent that the transfer of any Luminent Asset or the assumption of any
Luminent Liability is expressly provided for by the terms of any other Ancillary
Agreement, the terms of such other Ancillary Agreement shall
4
9
effect, and determine the manner of, the transfer or assumption. It is the
intent of the parties that pursuant to Sections 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3, the transfer
and assumption of all other Luminent Assets and Luminent Liabilities, other than
Delayed Transfer Assets and Delayed Transfer Liabilities, shall be made
effective as of the Separation Date; provided, however, that circumstances in
various jurisdictions outside the United States may require the transfer of
certain Assets and the assumption of certain Liabilities to occur in such other
manner and at such other time as the parties shall agree, as provided in Section
1.4 hereof.
(b) Mistaken Assignments and Assumptions. In addition to those transfers
and assumptions accurately identified and designated by the parties to take
place but which the parties are not able to effect prior to the Separation Date,
there may exist (i) Assets that the parties discover were, contrary to the
agreements between the parties, by mistake or omission, transferred to Luminent
or (ii) Liabilities that the parties discover were, contrary to the agreements
between the parties, by mistake or omission, assumed by Luminent. The parties
shall cooperate in good faith to effect the transfer or re-transfer of such
Assets, and/or the assumption or re-assumption of such Liabilities, to or by the
appropriate party and shall not use the determination that remedial actions need
to be taken to alter the original intent of the parties hereto with respect to
the Assets to be transferred to or Liabilities to be assumed by Luminent. Each
party shall reimburse the other or make other financial adjustments (e.g.,
without limitation, cash reserves) or other adjustments to remedy any mistakes
or omissions relating to any of the Assets transferred hereby or any of the
Liabilities assumed hereby.
(c) Documents Relating to Other Transfers of Assets and Assumption of
Liabilities. In furtherance of the assignment, transfer and conveyance of
Luminent Assets and the assumption of Luminent Liabilities set forth in Sections
1.5(a) and (b) and certain other Ancillary Agreements, simultaneously with the
execution and delivery hereof or as promptly as practicable thereafter, (i) MRV
shall execute and deliver, and shall cause its Subsidiaries in accordance with
Local Transfer Agreements to execute and deliver, such bills of sale, stock
powers, certificates of title, assignments of contracts and other instruments of
transfer, conveyance and assignment as and to the extent necessary to evidence
the transfer, conveyance and assignment of all of MRV's and its Subsidiaries'
right, title and interest in and to the Luminent Assets to Luminent and (ii)
Luminent shall execute and deliver to MRV and its Subsidiaries such assumptions
of contracts and other instruments of assumption as and to the extent necessary
to evidence the valid and effective assumption of the Luminent Liabilities by
Luminent.
(d) Transfer Costs. Luminent shall bear all costs related to the transfer
of the Luminent Assets from MRV, or any MRV Subsidiary, to Luminent, or any
Luminent Subsidiary, and the assumption by Luminent, or its Subsidiary, of al
Luminent Liabilities, including, without limitation, any and all: (i) moving
expenses; (ii) transfer taxes; (iii) expenses incurred in connection with any
notices to customers, suppliers or other third parties regarding such transfer
of the Luminent Assets or assumption of the Luminent Liabilities; (iv) fees
incurred in connection with the transfer of any licenses, permits or franchises
from MRV, or any MRV Subsidiary, to Luminent, or any Luminent Subsidiary, or
obtaining of any new, or re-issuances of existing, licenses, permits or
franchises in the name of Luminent; (v) fees and expenses incurred in connection
with the assignment or transfer of any contracts, agreements or Intellectual
Property from MRV, or any MRV Subsidiary, to Luminent or any Luminent
Subsidiary; (vi) any recording or other fees, taxes, charges or assessments
incurred in connection with the transfer of any real property from MRV, or any
MRV Subsidiary, to Luminent or any Luminent Subsidiary;
5
10
and (vii) costs incurred in connection with the transfer of any employee of MRV,
or any MRV Subsidiary, to Luminent, or any Luminent Subsidiary.
Section 1.6 Governmental Approvals and Consents
(a) Transfer In Violation of Laws. If and to the extent that the valid,
complete and perfected transfer assignment or novation to the Luminent Group of
any Luminent Assets and Luminent Liabilities (or from the Luminent Group of any
Non-Luminent Assets) would be a violation of applicable laws or require any
Consent or Governmental Approval in connection with the Separation, the IPO or
the Distribution, then, unless MRV shall otherwise determine, the transfer,
assignment or novation to or from the Luminent Group, as the case may be, of
such Luminent Assets or Non-Luminent Assets, respectively, shall be
automatically deemed deferred and any such purported transfer, assignment or
novation shall be null and void until such time as all legal impediments are
removed and/or such Consents or Governmental Approvals have been obtained.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Asset shall still be considered a Luminent
Asset for purposes of determining whether any Liability is a Luminent Liability;
provided, however, that if such covenants or Governmental Approvals have not
been obtained within six months of the Distribution Date, the parties will use
their reasonable commercial efforts to achieve an alternative solution in
accordance with the parties' intentions.
(b) Transfers Not Consummated Prior to Separation Date. If the transfer,
assignment or novation of any Assets intended to be transferred or assigned
hereunder, is not consummated prior to or on the Separation Date, whether as a
result of the provisions of Section 1.6(a) or for any other reason, then the
Person retaining such Asset shall thereafter hold such Asset for the use and
benefit, insofar as reasonably possible, of the Person entitled thereto (at the
expense of the Person entitled thereto). In addition, the Person retaining such
Asset shall take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the Person
to whom such Asset is to be transferred in order to place such Person, insofar
as reasonably possible, in the same position as if such Asset had been
transferred as contemplated hereby and so that all the benefits and burdens
relating to such Luminent Assets (or such Non-Luminent Assets, as the case may
be), including possession, use, risk of loss, potential for gain, and dominion,
control and command over such Assets, are to inure from and after the Separation
Date to the Luminent Group (or the MRV Group, as the case may be). If and when
the Consents and/or Governmental Approvals, the absence of which caused the
deferral of transfer of any Asset pursuant to Section 1.6(a), are obtained, the
transfer of the applicable Asset shall be effected in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement and/or such other applicable Ancillary Agreement.
(c) Expenses. The Person retaining an Asset due to the deferral of the
transfer of such Asset shall not be obligated, in connection with the foregoing,
to expend any money unless the necessary funds are advanced by the Person
entitled to the Asset, other than reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, attorneys'
fees and recording or similar fees, all of which shall be promptly reimbursed by
the Person entitled to such Asset.
Section 1.7 Nonrecurring Costs and Expenses. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, any nonrecurring costs and expenses incurred by the parties hereto
to effect the transactions contemplated hereby which are not allocated pursuant
to the terms of the Separation Agreement, this Agreement or any other Ancillary
Agreement shall be the responsibility of the party which incurs such costs and
expenses.
Section 1.8 Novation of Assumed Luminent Liabilities
6
11
(a) Reasonable Commercial Efforts. Each of MRV and Luminent, at the request
of the other, shall use its reasonable commercial efforts to obtain, or to cause
to be obtained, any consent, substitution, approval or amendment required to
novate (including with respect to any federal government contract) or assign all
rights and obligations under agreements, leases, licenses and other obligations
or Liabilities (including Luminent OFLs) of any nature whatsoever that
constitute Luminent Liabilities or to obtain in writing the unconditional
release of all parties to such arrangements other than any member of the
Luminent Group, so that, in any such case, Luminent and its Subsidiaries will be
solely responsible for such Liabilities; provided, however, that neither MRV,
Luminent nor their Subsidiaries shall be obligated to pay any consideration
therefor to any third party from whom such consents, approvals, substitutions
and amendments are requested.
(b) Inability to Obtain Novation. If MRV or Luminent is unable to obtain,
or to cause to be obtained, any such required consent, approval, release,
substitution or amendment, the applicable member of the MRV Group shall continue
to be bound by such agreements, leases, licenses and other obligations and,
unless not permitted by law or the terms thereof (except to the extent expressly
set forth in this Agreement, the Separation Agreement or any other Ancillary
Agreement), Luminent shall, as agent or subcontractor for MRV or such other
Person, as the case may be, pay, perform and discharge fully, or cause to be
paid, transferred or discharged all the obligations or other Liabilities of MRV
or such other Person, as the case may be, thereunder from and after the date
hereof. MRV shall, without further consideration, pay and remit, or cause to be
paid or remitted, to Luminent or its appropriate Subsidiary promptly all money,
rights and other consideration received by it or any member of its respective
Group in respect of such performance (unless any such consideration is an
Excluded Asset). If and when any such consent, approval, release, substitution
or amendment shall be obtained or such agreement, lease, license or other rights
or obligations shall otherwise become assignable or able to be novated, MRV
shall thereafter assign, or cause to be assigned, all its rights, obligations
and other Liabilities thereunder or any rights or obligations of any member of
its respective Group to Luminent without payment of further consideration and
Luminent shall, without the payment of any further consideration, assume such
rights and obligations.
ARTICLE II
LITIGATION
Section 2.1 Allocation
(a) Litigation to Be Transferred to Luminent. Notwithstanding any contrary
provisions in the Indemnification and Insurance Matters Agreement, on the
Separation Date, the responsibilities for management of the litigation
identified in a litigation disclosure letter (the "Litigation Disclosure
Letter"), which will be delivered by MRV to Luminent on the Separation Date,
shall be transferred in their entirety from MRV and its Subsidiaries to Luminent
and its Subsidiaries. As of the Separation Date and thereafter, Luminent shall
manage the defense of such litigation and shall cause its applicable
Subsidiaries to do the same. MRV and its Subsidiaries must first obtain the
prior consent of Luminent or its applicable Subsidiary for any action taken
subsequent to the Separation Date in connection with the litigation identified
in the
7
12
Litigation Disclosure Letter, which consent cannot be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. All other matters relating to such litigation, including but not
limited to indemnification for such claims, shall be governed by the provisions
of the Indemnification and Insurance Matters Agreement.
(b) Litigation to be Defended by MRV at Luminent's Expense. Notwithstanding
any contrary provisions in the Indemnification and Insurance Matters Agreement,
MRV shall defend, and shall cause its applicable Subsidiaries to defend, the
litigation identified in the Litigation Disclosure Letter that is not delivered
by MRV to Luminent on the Separation Date. All other matters relating to such
litigation, including but not limited to indemnification for such claims, shall
be governed by the provisions of the Indemnification and Insurance Matters
Agreement.
Section 2.2 Cooperation. MRV and Luminent and their respective Subsidiaries
shall cooperate with each other in the defense of any litigation covered under
this Article II and afford to each other reasonable access upon reasonable
advance notice to witnesses and Information (other than Information protected
from disclosure by applicable privileges) that is reasonably required to defend
this litigation (as "Information" is defined pursuant to Section 7.4 of the
Separation Agreement). The foregoing agreement to cooperate includes, but is not
limited to, an obligation to provide access to qualified assistance to provide
information, witnesses and documents to respond to discovery requests in
specific lawsuits. In such cases, cooperation shall be timely so that the party
responding to discovery may meet all court-imposed deadlines. The party
requesting information shall reimburse the party providing information
consistent with the terms of Section 7.4 of the Separation Agreement. The
obligations set forth in this paragraph are more clearly defined in Section 7.4
of the Separation Agreement.
ARTICLE III

good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the
parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that
transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible.
Section 3.8 Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or
delay on the part of any party hereto in the exercise of any right hereunder
shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in,

member of the MRV Group or the Luminent Group as of the Separation Date with
respect to such Liability was not acknowledged, fixed or determined in any
material respect, due to a dispute or other uncertainty as of the Separation
Date or as a result of the failure of such Liability to have been discovered or
asserted as of the Separation Date (it being understood that the existence of a
litigation or other reserve with respect to any Liability shall not be
sufficient for such Liability to be considered acknowledged, fixed or
determined). In the case of any Liability a portion of which arises out of
