        5.6  If the Escrow Agent shall be uncertain as to its duties or rights hereunder, or if it shall receive any notice, advice, direction or other document from any other

possession of the Escrowed Funds or any part thereof (or as to the delivery, non-delivery) or content of any notice, advice, direction, or other document), the Escrow Agent shall be entitled, without liability, to refrain from taking any action other than
to use Escrow Agent’s best efforts to keep safely the Escrowed Funds until the Escrow Agent shall be directed otherwise in writing by the other parties hereto or by an order, decree, or judgment of the competent California Court or an arbitrator duly
appointed by the Company and the Purchaser, but the Escrow Agent shall be under no duty to institute or to defend any proceeding although the Escrow Agent may, in the Escrow Agent’s discretion and at the expense of the Company and the Purchaser (to

Escrowed Funds to the successor Escrow Agent, after the fees and expenses for all services rendered by the resigning Escrow Agent shall have been paid to it, and all of the provisions of this Escrow Agreement shall apply to the successor Escrow Agent as
though it had been named herein.

 each by the Company and the Purchaser. The Escrow Agent shall also be entitled to reimbursement on demand for all reasonable loss, liability, damage or expenses paid or incurred by it in the administration of its duties hereunder, including, but not
limited to, all disbursements and all taxes or other governmental charges Escrow Agent may withdraw the fees shown in Schedule 6 from account income.

terms and conditions hereof, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, T shall issue and deliver to S warrants mandatorily exercisable under Section 5.1 hereof for the purchase of up to an aggregate of 1,833,450 Ordinary Shares of T by S subject

accompanied by a payment for such number of B Additional Purchase Obligations as shall have been exercised in the A Additional Purchase Obligation series through the Exercise Date. For instance, if by the Exercise Date the A-1, A-2 and A-3 Additional
Purchase Obligations shall have been exercised, on the Exercise Date S shall make a payment for the B-1, B-2 and B-3 Additional Purchase Obligations. For the avoidance of all doubt, the B Additional Purchase Obligations shall not become exercisable until
the delivery o

f the Election Notice and failure to deliver the Election Notice to T within the above date shall cause the B Additional Purchase Obligations to terminate and become void. 

        2.2.  Form of Additional Purchase Obligation Certificates. The A Additional Purchase Obligations shall be designated in five series (Series A1 – A5), each
evidenced by an Additional Purchase Obligation certificate in the form of Exhibits A1 – A5 attached hereto (the “A Additional Purchase Obligation Certificates”). The B Additional Purchase Obligations shall be designated in five series (Series B1 – B5), each evidenced by an Additional Purchase
Obligation certificate in the form of Exhibits B1 – B5 attached hereto (the “B Additional Purchase Obligation 

Certificates” and together with the A Additional Purchase Obligation Certificates, the “Additional Purchase Obligation Certificates”). Each A Additional Purchase Obligation series shall contain Additional
Purchase Obligations to purchase up to an aggregate of 366,690 Ordinary Shares of T. Each B1- to B-5 Additional Purchase Obligation series shall contain Additional Purchase Obligations to purchase 540,000 Ordinary Shares of T. Each Additional Purchase
Obligation Certificate shall be dated the date hereof and shall bear the legend set forth in Exhibit C, together with such other legends and endorsements thereon as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation pursuant thereto or
with any rule or regulation of any securities exchange on which the Ordinary Shares may be listed, or to conform to customary usage.

Agreement, to receive up to the number of Ordinary Shares stated therein, subject to adjustment as herein provided, upon payment of the Exercise Price for each of such shares. The Exercise Price shall be payable by wire transfer of immediately available
funds to T in accordance with written wiring instructions provided by T, or by such other means as may be mutually agreed by the parties.

        3.2.  Exercise Periods of A and B Additional Purchase Obligations

        3.2.1.  Exercise Period of A Additional Purchase Obligations. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the A Additional Purchase Obligations
shall be exercisable at any time on or after the Closing Date under the Share Purchase Agreement and on or prior to the Expiration Date.

Certificate evidencing such Additional Purchase Obligation to T, with one of the forms on the reverse of or attached to the Additional Purchase Obligation Certificate duly executed. Subject to the terms of Section 5, each Additional Purchase Obligation
may be exercised in whole or in part, provided that no Additional Purchase Obligation may be exercised for the purchase of less than an aggregate of 100,000 Ordinary Shares. If fewer than all of the Additional Purchase Obligations represented by an
Additional Purchase Obligation Certificate are surrendered, such Additional Purchase Obligation Certificate shall be surrendered and a new Additional Purchase Obligation Certificate substantially in the form of the Additional Purchase Obligation
Certificate surrendered for

 partial exercise thereof providing for purchase by S of the number of Ordinary Shares that were not exercised shall be executed by T and issued to S.

        Upon surrender of an Additional Purchase Obligation Certificate and payment of the Exercise Price in conformity with the foregoing provisions, T shall promptly issue to S
appropriate evidence of ownership of the Ordinary Shares or other securities or property to which S is entitled, including share certificates in the name of S and evidence of such Ordinary Shares having been registered in the share register of T in the
name of S. Such Shares shall bear the same legend as set forth in Section 4.3.2 of the Share Purchase Agreement.

4.  Adjustments

        4.1.  Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares of Ordinary Shares

              The (a) number and kind of shares purchasable upon the exercise of Additional Purchase Obligations and (b) Exercise Price shall both be subject
to adjustment from time to time as follows:

        4.1.1.  Stock Dividends, Share-Splits, Combinations, etc. In case T shall hereafter (a) pay a stock dividend or make a distribution (whether in Ordinary
Shares or capital shares of any other class on its Ordinary Shares), (b) subdivide its outstanding Ordinary Shares, (c) combine its outstanding Ordinary Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (d) issue by reclassification of its Ordinary Shares any
capital shares of T, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action (after giving effect to all other adjustements under this Section 4) shall be adjusted so that, in relation to any Additional Purchase 

3

             Obligation thereafter exercised, S shall be entitled to receive the number of Ordinary Shares or of other capital shares which S would have owned
immediately following such action had such Additional Purchase Obligation been exercised immediately prior thereto. An adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend and shall
become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification. 

        4.1.2.  Reclassification, Combination, Mergers, etc. In case of any reclassification or change of outstanding Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of
the Additional Purchase Obligations (other than (i) as set forth in paragraph 4.1.1 above, and (ii) a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value or (iii) as a result of a subdivision or combination), or in
case of any consolidation or merger of T with or into another corporation (other than a merger in which T is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or change of the then outstanding Ordinary Shares or other capital
shares issuable upon exercise of the Additional Purchase Obligations (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value or as a result of a subdivision or combination), or in case of any sale or
conveyance to ano

ther corporation of the property of T as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, then, as a condition of such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, T or such a successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be,
shall forthwith make lawful and adequate provision whereby S shall have the right thereafter to receive on exercise of such Additional Purchase Obligation the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property receivable upon such
reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by a holder of the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of such Additional Purchase Obligation immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale
or conveyance. Such provisions shall include provision for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4. The above provisions of this paragraph 4.1.2 shall similarly apply to
successive reclassificati

on and changes of Ordinary Shares and to successive consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.

        4.1.3.  Deferral of Certain Adjustments. No adjustment to the Exercise Price (including the related adjustment to the number of Ordinary Shares
purchasable upon the exercise of each Additional Purchase Obligation) shall be required hereunder unless such adjustment, together with other adjustments carried forward as provided below, would result in an increase or decrease of at least one percent of
the Exercise Price, provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this paragraph 4.1.3 are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. No adjustment need be made for a change in the par
value of the Ordinary Shares.

        4.1.4.  Other Adjustments. In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4, S shall become entitled to receive
any securities of T other than Ordinary Shares thereafter the number of such other securities so receivable upon exercise of the Additional Purchase Obligations and the Exercise Price applicable to such exercise shall be subject to adjustment from time to
time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the Ordinary Shares contained in this Section 4.

        4.2.  Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Ordinary Shares or other Equity Securities or property issuable upon the exercise of each Additional Purchase
Obligation or the Exercise Price is adjusted, as herein provided, T shall promptly mail by first class mail, postage prepaid, to S notice of such adjustment or adjustments and shall deliver to S a certificate of T’s chief financial officer setting
forth the number of Ordinary Shares or other Equity Securities or property issuable upon the exercise of each Additional Purchase Obligation or the Exercise Price after such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such
adjustment and setting forth the computation by which such adjustment was made.

        4.3.  Statement on Additional Purchase Obligations. Irrespective of any adjustment in the number or kind of shares issuable upon the exercise of the Additional
Purchase Obligations or the Exercise Price, Additional Purchase Obligations theretofore or thereafter issued may continue to express the same number and kind of shares as are stated in the Additional Purchase Obligations initially issuable pursuant to
this Agreement.

        4.4.  Fractional Interest. T shall not be required to issue fractional Ordinary Shares upon the exercise of Additional Purchase Obligations. If more than one
Additional Purchase Obligation shall be presented for exercise in full at the same time, the number of full Ordinary Shares which shall be issuable upon such exercise shall be 

4

computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares acquirable on exercise of the Additional Purchase Obligations so presented. If any fraction of an Ordinary Share would, except for the provisions of this section,
be issuable on the exercise of any Additional Purchase Obligation (or specified portion thereof), T shall pay an amount in cash calculated by it to equal to the then current market value per share multiplied by such fraction computed to nearest whole
cent. S, by its acceptance of the Additional Purchase Obligation Certificates, expressly waive any and all rights to receive any fraction of an Ordinary Share or a share certificate representing a fraction of an Ordinary Share.

5.  Mandatory Exercise

        5.1.  Mandatory Exercise Events; Termination of Obligation. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, S shall be obligated to exercise each Additional
Purchase Obligation within thirty days of the following events (each a “Mandatory Exercise Event”):

        5.1.1.  In respect of the Series A-1 Additional Purchase Obligation (and the B-1 Additional Purchase Obligation if an Exercise Notice was delivered prior to the
date the Series A-1 Additional Purchase Obligation is mandatorily exercisable), upon receipt of written notice from T signed by the two Co-CEOs (or by the CEO, in the event that at the relevant time the Company shall employ only one CEO) and the Chairman
of the Board of T certifying that the Board of Directors of T has authorized commencement of construction of Fab 2 at the site set forth in the Business Plan, which approval shall not occur prior to obtaining all regulatory approvals necessary for the
construction start as described in the Business Plan, provided that such event must occur no later than one month after the Closing under the Share Purchase Agreement;

        5.1.2.  In respect of the Series A-2 Additional Purchase Obligation and the Series B-2 Additional Purchase Obligation (if an Exercise Notice was delivered prior
to the date the Series A-2 Additional Purchase Obligation is mandatorily exercisable), upon receipt of written notice from T signed by the two Co-CEOs or the CEO, as the case may be, and the Chairman of the Board of T certifying the commencement of
construction of the shell of the Fab 2 building in accordance with the Business Plan provided that such event must occur no later than three months after the Closing under the Share Purchase Agreement;

        5.1.3.   In respect of the Series A-3 Additional Purchase Obligation and the Series B-3 Additional Purchase Obligation (if an Exercise Notice was delivered prior
to the date the Series A-3 Additional Purchase Obligation is mandatorily exercisable), upon receipt of written notice from T signed by the two Co-CEOs or the CEO, as the case may be, and the Chairman of the Board of T certifying the completion of the
construction of the first phase of the cleanroom of Fab 2 in accordance with the Business Plan provided that such event must occur no later than 12 months after the Closing under the Share Purchase Agreement;

        5.1.4.  In respect of the Series A-4 Additional Purchase Obligation and the Series B-4 Additional Purchase Obligation (if an Exercise Notice was delivered prior
to the date the Series A-4 Additional Purchase Obligation is mandatorily exercisable), upon receipt of written notice from T signed by the two Co-CEOs or the CEO, as the case may be, and the Chairman of the Board of T certifying the completion of
successful pilot production in Fab 2 in accordance with the Business Plan provided that such event must occur no later than 18 months after the Closing under the Share Purchase Agreement; and 

        5.1.5.  In respect of the Series A-5 Additional Purchase Obligation and the Series B-5 Additional Purchase Obligation (if an Exercise Notice was delivered prior
to the date the Series A-5 Additional Purchase Obligation is mandatorily exercisable), upon receipt of written notice from T signed by the two Co-CEOs or the CEO, as the case may be, and the Chairman of the Board of T certifying that Fab 2 has
successfully produced wafers at the rate of 5,000 per month for two full consecutive months in accordance with the Business Plan provided that such event must occur no later than 22 months after the Closing under the Share Purchase Agreement.

        Each of the Mandatory Exercise Events shall be deemed to have occurred if the Mandatory Exercise Event occurs within seven and one-half months from its original exercise
date set forth above (such seven and one-half month period, a “Grace Period”). In the event that one of the Mandatory Exercise Events does not occur by the last date set forth in the relevant clause of clauses 5.1.1 – 5.1.5, including 

5

             during the corresponding Grace Period (a “Missed Exercise”), then, if the subsequent Mandatory Exercise Event does not occur by no
later than the end of its corresponding Grace Period, S shall not be obligated to effect the Missed Exercise and any subsequent series of Additional Purchase Obligations and the Additional Purchase Obligation relating to the Missed Exercise, to the extent
such Additional Purchase Obligations are unexercised, shall automatically expire. However, if such subsequent Mandatory Exercise Event does occur within the applicable Grace Period, then S shall be obligated to exercise the Additional Purchase Obligation
related to that subsequent Mandatory Exercise Event and shall be required to either effect the Missed Exercise within thirty days of the occurrence of the relevant subsequent Mandatory Exercise Event or the Additional Purchase Obligation relating to the
Missed E

xercise shall expire.

        In addition, and without limiting any other remedies available to T, in the event that S fails to exercise an Additional Purchase Obligation in connection with a Mandatory
Exercise Event which it is obligated to effect pursuant to this Section 5, any Additional Purchase Obligations unexercised at such time shall automatically expire

        5.2.  Percentage Ownership Delay. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.1, S may delay the exercise of any Additional Purchase Obligation if any such
exercise would result in S owning more than 19.9% of the outstanding share capital of T.

        5.3.  Other Conditions to Mandatory Exercise. In addition to the conditions to Mandatory Exercise contained in Section 5.1, S’s obligation to effect a
Mandatory Exercise shall be subject to satisfaction of the following conditions (any of which may be waived by S, in whole or in part, in S’s discretion) in relation to each Mandatory Exercise:

        5.3.1.  Accuracy of Representations. All of T’s representations and warranties in Section 6.1(i) of this Agreement must have been accurate in all
material respects (except that such representations and warranties specifically qualified by materiality shall be read for purposes of this Section so as not to require an additional degree of materiality) as of the date of this Agreement, and must be
accurate in all material respects as of the date of the relevant Mandatory Exercise, after giving effect, with respect to the representations made in Section 3.1 and 3.3 of the Share Purchase Agreement, to the issuance of Ordinary Shares contemplated by
the Business Plan and Additional Financing Plan and without giving effect to any supplement to the Schedules other than supplements disclosing events and facts not existing at the time of the Closing and arising in the Ordinary Course of Business.

        5.3.2.  Additional Financings. T shall have raised all the funds under the Additional Financings required thereunder to have been raised or
obtained either prior to or simultaneously with the date of the relevant Mandatory Exercise as described in the Additional Financing Plan (each, a “Target Date”), including those funds required to have been raised by the relevant Target Date
under (i) the debt or equity financing described in Section 10 of the Business Plan and (ii) under the grant from the Investment Center, in each case on terms and conditions which do not significantly deviate from the terms and conditions agreed upon in
accordance with Section 5.6 of the Share Purchase Agreement, provided, however, that this condition shall be deemed to have been not satisfied only if the failure to raise such funds causes a material change in the timetable or cost of the Fab 2 project in relati

on to the Business Plan as determined by S. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conditions set forth in this Section 5.2.2 shall be deemed to have been met if the funds which were not raised as of the relevant Target Date are raised within 90 days of such
Target Date on terms and conditions substantially similar to the terms and conditions upon which such funds were supposed to have been raised in accordance with Section 5.6 of the of the Share Purchase Agreement.

        5.3.3.  Transaction Documents; Ancillary Agreements. Each of the Transaction Documents and the Toshiba Agreement shall be in full force and effect and
shall not have been materially breached by any party thereto.

        5.3.4.  Certificates. In addition to the documents T is obligated to deliver to S under this Section 5, T shall furnish S with such other documents
as T may reasonably request for the purpose of (i) evidencing the performance by T of, or the compliance by T with, any covenant or obligation required to be performed or complied with by T in relation to the relevant Mandatory Exercise and (ii) 
evidencing the satisfaction of any condition referred to in this Section 5.

6

        5.3.5.  No Proceedings. Since the date of this Agreement, there must not have been commenced by a third party against S or T, or against any Person
affiliated with S or T, any Proceeding (a) involving any challenge to, or seeking damages or other relief in connection with, any of the Contemplated Transactions, or (b) that may have the effect of preventing, delaying, making illegal, or otherwise
interfering with any of the Contemplated Transactions.

        5.3.6.  Bankruptcy-Related Events. None of the following events shall have occurred for any reason whatsoever (and whether such occurrence shall be
voluntary or involuntary, or come about or be effected by operation of law, or pursuant to or in compliance with any judgement, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

        5.3.6.1.  T shall be unable to pay its debts generally as they become due; file a petition to take advantage of any insolvency statute; make an assignment
for the benefit of its creditors; commence a proceeding for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or conservator of itself or of the whole or any substantial part of its property; file a petition or answer seeking reorganization or
arrangement or similar relief under applicable bankruptcy laws; or

        5.3.6.2.  A court of competent jurisdiction shall have entered an order, judgement or decree appointing a custodian, receiver, trustee, liquidator or
conservator of T or of the whole or any substantial part of its properties, or approve a petition filed against T seeking reorganization or arrangement or similar relief under applicable bankruptcy, or if, under the provisions of any law for the relief or
aid of debtors, a court of competent jurisdiction shall assume custody or control of T or of the whole or any substantial part of its properties, or if there was commenced against T any proceeding or petition seeking reorganization or arrangement or
similar relief under applicable bankruptcy laws, or if T shall have taken any action to indicate its consent to or approval of any such proceeding or petition, and any one of which proceedings shall not have been vacated or abandoned within 30 days.

        5.3.6.3.  A default shall have occurred in any agreement or instrument under or pursuant to which any material indebtedness of T shall have been issued,
created, assumed, guaranteed or secured, and such default shall continure for more than the period of grace, if any, therein specified, or if such default shall permit the holder of such indebtedness to accelerate the maturity thereof, provided, however,
that the condition contained in this Section 5.3.6.3 shall not be deemed to have been satisfied in the event that a default in any agreement or instrument under which any indebtedness of T has been issued could give rise to a cross default provision in in
any agreement or instrument under or pursuant to which any material indebtedness of T shall have been issued, created, assumed, guaranteed or secured, or if the cumulative effect of any or all such defaults could be material to the Company. 

6.  Representations and Warranties

to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and other expenses in connection therewith and an appropriate indemnity with respect to losses related thereto.

              Every new Additional Purchase Obligation Certificate executed and delivered pursuant to this Section 8.2 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or
