national banking association, assignee of Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association, formerly known as Norwest Bank Minnesota, National Association in its separate capacity as administrative agent for itself and all other Banks (in such

 Recitals 

 
 A. The Borrower, the Banks and the Agent have entered into a Credit
Agreement dated as of November 30, 1999, as amended by Amendments dated as of October 17, 2000, March 1, 2002, February 7, 2003, February 26, 2003, February 17, 2004, October 5, 2004,
February 25, 2005 and May 26, 2005 (as so amended, the “Credit Agreement”). 
  
 B. The Borrower has requested that the Banks and the Agent amend the Credit Agreement as set forth hereinafter. 
  
 C. The Banks and the Agent are willing to grant the Borrower’s request
subject to the terms and conditions set forth below. 
  
 ACCORDINGLY, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the Borrower, the Banks and the Agent agree as follows: 
  

1. Defined Terms. All capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not otherwise specifically defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings
given such terms in the Credit Agreement. 
  
 2. Amendments to
the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is amended as follows: 
  
 2.1 Definition of EBITDA. The definition of “EBITDA” in Section 1.1 is amended to read as follows: 
  
 “‘EBITDA’ means, with respect to the applicable Covenant Computation Period, such Person’s Pre-Tax Earnings (excluding
non-cash income) plus Interest Expense and Non-Cash Charges, in each case excluding extraordinary items, determined with respect to the Borrower during such Covenant Computation Period, provided, that for purposes of calculating EBITDA
on the Covenant Computation Dates of August 27, 2005 and November 26, 2005 and the Covenant Computation Periods then ending (and not for purposes of calculating EBITDA as of any other Covenant Computation Date or 

 Covenant Computation Period), merger integration and asset disposition costs of $51,602,000 incurred
during the fiscal quarters ending August 27, 2005 and November 26, 2005 shall be added in calculating EBITDA.” 
  
 2.1 Change of Fiscal Year. The Borrower has informed the Agent and the Banks that the Borrower and its subsidiaries have elected to change the
fiscal year and tax reporting year of the Borrower from (i) the first accounting period ending after August of each year through the last accounting period of the next-following August, to (ii) the calendar year. To effect such change, the
period of August 28, 2005 through December 31, 2005 shall become a separate reporting period. For purposes of such transition: 
  
 (a) The Borrower shall provide to the Agent and the Banks each financial report and certificate that would otherwise be required at the end of a fiscal
quarter as of December 31, 2005. December 31, 2005 shall be deemed to be a Covenant Computation Date, and each financial requirement shall be calculated on such date for the period of twelve consecutive months then ending. The Quarterly
Financial Statement Due Date shall be determined as if December 31, 2005 were the end of a fiscal quarter and the Eurodollar Rate Margin, Floating Rate Margin, Commitment Fee Percentage and Unused Commitment Fee Percentage shall be determined
as if such date were the end of a fiscal quarter. 
  
 (b) For all
Covenant Computation Dates through and including September 30, 2006, compliance with all financial requirements and calculation of the Eurodollar Rate Margin, Floating Rate Margin, Commitment Fee Percentage and Unused Commitment Fee Percentage
shall be determined based on a Covenant Computation Period of twelve consecutive months (notwithstanding any reference in the Credit Agreement to any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters then ending). 
  
 (c) The annual audited financial statements of the Borrower for the fiscal
year ending December 31, 2006 shall include, and shall separately report on, the period of August 28, 2005 through December 31, 2005. 
  
 (d) The last clause of Section 6.13 (“. . . and will not adopt, permit or consent to any change in its fiscal year”) is waived as applying
to the change to a calendar year described herein, but not to any further change of the fiscal year of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. 
  
 3. Conditions Precedent. This Amendment shall become effective when the Agent shall have received the following, each in form and content
acceptable to the Agent in its sole discretion: 
  
 (a) This
Amendment duly executed on behalf of the Borrower, the Banks and the Agent; and 
  
 (b) An incumbency certificate for the officer(s) authorized to execute and deliver this Amendment. 

 4. Reference to and Effect on the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Except as
otherwise amended by this Amendment, all of the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents prior to giving effect to this Amendment shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. 
  
 5. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts taken together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. 
  
 6. Borrower Release. The Borrower hereby absolutely and unconditionally releases and forever discharges the Agent and each of the Banks, and any
and all participants, parent corporations, subsidiary corporations, affiliated corporations, insurers, indemnitors, successors and assigns thereof, together withal of the present and former directors, officers, agents and employees of any of the
foregoing (the “Released Parties”), from any and all claims, demands or causes of action of any kind, nature or description, whether arising in law or equity or upon contract or tort or under any state or federal law or otherwise, which
the Borrower has had, now has or has made claim to have against such Released Party for or by reason of any act, omission, matter, cause or thing whatsoever arising from the beginning of time to and including the date of this Amendment in connection
with or related to the transactions evidenced by the Loan Documents, whether such claims, demands and causes of action are mature or unmatured or known or unknown. 
  
 7. No Waiver. The execution of this Amendment shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default
under the Credit Agreement, whether or not known to the Agent and/or the Banks and whether or not existing on the date of this Amendment. 
  
 8. Representations and Warranties of the Borrower. The Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Agent and the Banks as follows: 

 
 (a) The Borrower has all requisite power and authority to execute this
Amendment and to perform all of its obligations under the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment. This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower,
enforceable in accordance with its terms. 
  
 (b) The execution,
delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Credit Agreement, this Amendment and the other Loan Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and do not (i) require any authorization, consent or approval by any
governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, domestic or foreign, (ii) violate any provision of any law, rule or regulation or of any order, writ, injunction or decree presently in effect, having applicability
to the Borrower, or the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Borrower, or (iii) result in a breach of or constitute a default under any indenture or loan or credit agreement or any other agreement, lease or instrument to which the
Borrower is a party or by which it or its properties may be bound or affected. 
  
 (c) All of the representations and warranties contained in Article IV of the Credit Agreement are correct on and as of the date hereof as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent that such
representations and warranties relate solely to an earlier date. 

 (d) NT International, Inc., which had been a Guarantor, has merged into the Borrower, with the Borrower
being the surviving entity and all assets and liabilities of NT International, Inc. having been transferred to and assumed by the Borrower. Upon request of the Agent, the Borrower will deliver to the Agent copies of the articles of merger filed with
the state of Delaware to cause such merger.

	 	 	 	 	Name of Employee (“Employee”)

  
 ENTEGRIS, INC.

 Restricted Stock Award Agreement 
  
 In consideration of services rendered by Employee to Entegris, Inc. (the “Company”) the undersigned Employee: (i) acknowledges that
Employee has received an award (the “Award”) of restricted stock from the Company under the [Mykrolis – Entegris, Inc. 2001 Equity Incentive Plan or Entegris –Entegris, Inc. 1999 Long-Term Incentive and Stock Option
Plan] (the “Plan”), subject to the terms set forth below and to the terms of the Plan; (ii) further acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan as in effect on the effective date hereof; and (iii) agrees with the
Company as follows: 
  

	 	1.	Effective Date. This Agreement shall take effect as of [Mykrolis – August 16, 2005; Entegris – August 10, 2005], which is the date of grant
of the Award. 

  

	 	2.	Shares Subject to Award. The Award consists of              shares (the “Shares”) of the
Common Stock, $0.01 par value, of the Company (“Stock”). The undersigned’s rights to the Shares are subject to the restrictions described in this Agreement and in the Plan (which is incorporated herein by reference with the same
effect as if set forth herein in full) in addition to such other restrictions, if any, as may be imposed by law. 

  

	 	3.	Meaning of Certain Terms. Except as otherwise expressly provided, all terms used herein shall have the same meaning as in the Plan. The term “vest” as used
herein with respect to any Share means the lapsing of the restrictions described herein with respect to such Share. 

  

	 	4.	Nontransferability of Shares. The Shares acquired by the undersigned pursuant to this Agreement shall not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise
encumbered or disposed of except as provided below and in the Plan. 

  

	 	5.	Forfeiture Risk. If the undersigned ceases to be employed by the Company and its subsidiaries for any reason, including death, any then outstanding and unvested Shares
acquired by the undersigned hereunder shall be automatically and immediately forfeited. The undersigned hereby: (i) appoints the Company as the attorney-in-fact of the undersigned to take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate
to effectuate a transfer of the record ownership of any such shares that are unvested and forfeited hereunder; (ii) agrees to deliver to the Company, as a precondition to the issuance of any certificate or certificates with respect to
unvested Shares hereunder, one or more stock powers, endorsed in blank, with respect to such Shares; and (iii) agrees to sign such other powers and take such other actions as the Company may reasonably request to accomplish the transfer
or forfeiture of any unvested Shares that are forfeited hereunder. 

  

	 	6.	Retention of Certificates. Any certificates representing unvested Shares shall be held by the Company. If unvested Shares are held in book entry form, the undersigned
agrees that the Company may give stop transfer instructions to the depository to ensure compliance with the provisions hereof. 

	 	7.	Vesting of Shares. The Shares acquired hereunder shall vest in accordance with the provisions of this Paragraph 7 and applicable provisions of the Plan, as follows:

  

	 	 	37.5% of the Shares on and after December 31, 2005; and 

  

	 	 	an additional 5.21% of the Shares on and after the last business day of each calendar quarter of calendar years 2006, 2007 and 2008. 

  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Shares shall vest on any vesting date
specified above unless the undersigned is then, and since the date of grant has continuously been, employed by the Company or its subsidiaries. In the event of the occurance of (i) a consolidation or merger in which the Company is not the
surviving corporation or which results in the acquisition of all or substantially all of the Company’s then outstanding common stock by a single person or entity or by a group of persons and/or entities acting in concert, (ii) a sale or
transfer of all or substantially all the Company’s assets, or (iii) a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, then in such event, the Administrator may require that any amounts delivered, exchanged or otherwise paid in respect of
outstanding and then unvested Shares be placed in escrow or otherwise made subject to such restrictions as the Administrator deems appropriate to carry out the intent of the Plan. References in this Agreement to the Shares shall refer, mutatis
mutandis, to any such restricted amounts. 
  

	 	8.	Legend. Any certificates representing unvested Shares shall be held by the Company, and any such certificate shall contain a legend substantially in the following
form: 

  

	 	 	THE TRANSFERABILITY OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE SHARES OF STOCK REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS (INCLUDING FORFEITURE) OF THE [Mykrolis,- ENTEGRIS,
INC. 2001 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN; Entegris – ENTEGRIS, INC. 1999 LONG TERM INCENTIVE AND STOCK OPTION PLAN] AND A RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT ENTERED INTO BETWEEN THE REGISTERED OWNER AND ENTEGRIS, INC.. COPIES OF SUCH PLAN AND
AGREEMENT ARE ON FILE IN THE OFFICES OF ENTEGRIS, INC. 

  
 If any Shares are held in book-entry form, the Company may take such steps as it deems necessary or appropriate to record and manifest the restrictions applicable to such Shares. As soon as practicable following the vesting of any such
Shares the Company shall cause a certificate or certificates covering such Shares, without the aforesaid legend, to be issued and delivered to the undersigned. In the case of Shares held in book-entry form, as soon as practicable following the
vesting of any such Shares, such Shares shall be freed of restrictions in such book-entry records. 
  

	 	9.	Dividends, etc.. The undersigned shall be entitled to (i) receive any and all dividends or other distributions paid with respect to those Shares of which Employee
is the record owner on the record date for such dividend or other distribution, and (ii) vote any Shares of which Employee is the record owner on the record date for such vote; provided, however, that any property or right (other than
cash) distributed with respect to a share of Stock (the “associated share”) acquired hereunder, including without limitation a distribution of Stock by reason of a stock dividend, stock split or otherwise, or a distribution of other
securities with respect to an associated share, shall be subject to the restrictions of this Agreement in the same manner and for so long as the associated share remains subject to such restrictions, and shall be promptly forfeited if and when the
associated share is so forfeited; and further provided, that the 

	 	 	Administrator may require that any cash distribution with respect to the Shares other than a normal cash dividend be placed in escrow or otherwise made subject to such restrictions
as the Administrator deems appropriate to carry out the intent of the Plan. References in this Agreement to the Shares shall refer, mutatis mutandis, to any such restricted amounts. 

  

	 	10.	Sale of Vested Shares. The undersigned understands that Employee will be free to sell any Share once it has vested, subject to (i) satisfaction of any applicable
tax withholding requirements with respect to the vesting or transfer of such Share; (ii) the completion of any administrative steps (for example, but without limitation, the transfer of certificates) that the Company may reasonably impose; and
(iii) applicable requirements of federal and state securities laws. 

  

	 	11.	Certain Tax Matters. The undersigned expressly acknowledges that the award or vesting of the Shares acquired hereunder, and the payment of dividends with respect to
such Shares, may give rise to “wages” subject to withholding. The undersigned expressly acknowledges and agrees that Employee’s rights hereunder are subject to Employee promptly paying to the Company in cash (or by such other means as
may be acceptable to the Company in its discretion, including, if the Administrator so determines, by the delivery of previously acquired Stock or shares of Stock acquired hereunder in accordance with the Plan or by the withholding of amounts from
any payment hereunder) all taxes required to be withheld in connection with such award, vesting or payment. 

  

	 	12.	No Understandings as to Employment. The undersigned further expressly acknowledges that nothing in the Plan or any modification thereto, in the Award or in this
Agreement shall constitute or be evidence of any understanding, express or implied, on the part of the Company to employ the undersigned for any period or with respect to the terms of the undersigned’s employment or to give rise to any right to
remain in the service of the Company or of any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company, and the undersigned shall remain subject to discharge to the same extent as if the Plan had never been adopted or the Award had never been made.

  

	 	13.	Amendment. This Agreement may be amended only by an instrument in writing executed and delivered by the Employee and the Company 

  

	
	  

	 (Signature of Employee)
