                           NEC AND CELESTICA ANNOUNCE
                             SIGNIFICANTLY EXPANDED
                       STRATEGIC OUTSOURCING RELATIONSHIP


TOKYO,  JAPAN AND  TORONTO,  CANADA,  JANUARY 8, 2002 -- NEC  Corporation  (NEC)
(NASDAQ:  NIPNY) (FTSE: 6701q.l) and Celestica Inc. (Celestica) (NYSE, TSE: CLS)
today  announced that they have entered into an agreement  regarding a strategic
outsourcing relationship under which the companies will, on closing,  commence a
five-year supply agreement, with total estimated revenue of approximately US$2.5
billion.

As part of the  transaction,  Celestica  will assume  supply  chain  management,
sub-assembly, final assembly, integration and testing for a broad range of NEC's
optical backbone and broadband access equipment.

Highlights of the transaction are as follows:

o    Under the terms of the  agreement,  Celestica will expand its operations in
     Japan by acquiring  certain of NEC's advanced  manufacturing  facilities in
     Miyagi and  Yamanashi,  Japan.  NEC's Miyagi and Yamanashi  facilities  are
     engaged  in  the  development  and   manufacturing   of  advanced   optical
     transmission  systems,  including  wavelength division  multiplexing system
     (WDM)  and  SONET/SDH,  as  well as  access  network  systems  such as xDSL
     (DSLAM).

o    Approximately 1,200  highly-skilled  manufacturing  specialists and related
     support staff, including 800 from NEC's Miyagi operation and 400 from NEC's
     Yamanashi operation, will join Celestica.

o    The  transaction is expected to close by March 31, 2002,  subject to normal
     closing conditions,  including regulatory approvals. Further details of the
     deal were not disclosed.

<PAGE>


o    The design and development functions currently performed by NEC Miyagi will
     remain  with NEC and NEC Miyagi will  continue  as a  developer  of optical
     transmission  systems.  The development and manufacturing  operation of NEC
     Yamanashi's Otsuki Plant, that is involved in manufacturing optical devices
     and optical submarine cable systems, will also remain with NEC.

"NEC's  growing  partnership  with  Celestica  will  allow  us  to  improve  our
competitive  positioning by further  leveraging our  leading-edge  R&D,  product
development and manufacturing  expertise with Celestica's  global  manufacturing
capabilities  and supply chain management  expertise,"  said Kaoru Yano,  Senior
Vice President of NEC and Company Deputy President of NEC Networks. "Through the
alliance  with  Celestica,   NEC  intends  to  improve  price   competitiveness,
production   lead-times  and  supply  chain   flexibility  to  optimize  overall
manufacturing  efficiency.  NEC also chose to work with  Celestica  based on its
reputation  for  providing  global,  advanced  manufacturing   capabilities  and
cost-effective  supply chain solutions for the world's best  communications  and
information technology companies."

"Celestica is extremely  pleased and honoured to enhance its operations in Japan
through  this  expanded  strategic  relationship  with NEC, a  respected  market
leader," said Eugene  Polistuk,  Chairman and CEO,  Celestica.  "Celestica is an
organization that prides itself on the quality of its employees and the advanced
supply  chain and  manufacturing  capabilities  it  offers  its  customers.  The
addition of NEC's  technologically  advanced operations in Miyagi and Yamanashi,
and the accompanying  highly-skilled  human resources,  complements our existing
Japanese  service  offering and demonstrates our commitment to building a strong
presence in Japan to meet the growing  needs of NEC and other  valued  customers
into the future."

NEC Corporation is being advised by Deutsche Bank in this transaction.

FACTORS  THAT  COULD  CAUSE  ACTUAL  RESULTS  TO  DIFFER  MATERIALLY  FROM  SUCH
