Price allocated to the Acquired Assets that have a primary nexus in China pursuant to Section 9.2 (the “China Purchase Price”).] 
  

(b) On the Initial Closing Date, on behalf of the Seller, the Purchaser shall deposit into a general escrow account (the

Amount”). The Escrow Amount, and any interest earned thereon, shall be maintained in a separate account and disbursed pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement. 
  
 (c) Within 60 days following the Initial Closing Date, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller a draft of

 (e) On or before the third business day following the final
determination of the Certified Statement, the Purchaser or the Seller, as the case may be, shall pay to the other party an amount such that following such payment, and taking into account the payments made on the Initial Closing Date, the Purchaser
shall have paid to the Seller the Initial Purchase Price, (i) plus (or minus) the entire amount by which the amount of Working Capital set forth on the Certified Statement exceeds (or is less than) $4,732,000 (the level of Working Capital set
forth in the preliminary statement of Working Capital included in Schedule 1.4) and (ii) minus the Escrow Amount. 
  
 (f) If the Purchaser and the Seller dispute any portion of the Closing Statement or the calculation of the Working Capital, but
nonetheless agree that, following final determination of the Certified Statement, a payment will be required to be made pursuant to this Section 1.4 by the Seller to the Purchaser or by the Purchaser to the Seller, the amount of such
payment that the parties do not dispute shall be paid. 
  
 1.5
Credits and Prorations. The Seller and the Purchaser shall prorate all Prepaids, including any payments due or advanced under any lease as of the Initial Closing Date. With respect to any amounts that have not yet been billed or otherwise
determined, the Seller and the Purchaser shall prorate such amounts based on the most recent ascertainable bill, based on when Prepaids and other assessments are due and payable. The Prepaids and such prorations shall not be included in the
calculation of Working Capital. 
  
 1.6 Payments and
Computations. All payments under this Agreement shall be made in U.S. dollars. Except for the payments due at the Initial Closing or the China Closing, as applicable, each party shall make any payment due to the other party to this Agreement not
later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day when due. All payments shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account or accounts designated in writing by the party receiving such payment, together with interest,

Section 1.4(d), up to but excluding the date on which payment is received, and otherwise, including the date on which payment is received). Whenever any payment under this Agreement shall be due on a day other than a business day, such
payment shall be made on the next succeeding business day, and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of payment of interest. Any payment as an adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 1.4 shall be made
within three business days of the date the Certified Statement, together with interest thereon from the Initial Closing Date to the date the payment is made in full at the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) as reported on the Initial Closing Date

Trademarks owned (in whole or in part) by the Seller Group and used or held for use in connection with the Business (collectively “Business Registered Marks”), Section 2.8(a)(2) of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth an accurate
and complete list of all Patents owned (in whole or in part) by the Seller Group and used or held for use in connection with the Business (collectively the “Business Patents”) and Section 2.8(a)(3) of the Disclosure Schedule
sets forth an accurate and complete list of all registered Copyrights owned (in whole or in part) by the Seller Group and used or held for use in connection with the Business, and all pending applications for registration of Copyrights filed
anywhere in the world that are owned (in whole or in part) by the Seller Group and used or held for use in connection with the Business (collectively the “Business Copyrights” and, together with the Business Registered Marks and the
Business Patents, the “Business Registered IP”). No Business Registered IP has been or is now involved in any interference, reissue, reexamination, opposition, cancellation or similar proceeding and, to the Seller’s knowledge,
no such action is or has been threatened with respect to any of the Business Registered IP. All Business Registered IP has been registered or obtained in accordance with all applicable legal requirements and, except as set forth on
Section 2.8(a)(4) of the Disclosure Schedule, no maintenance or filing fees, applications, affidavits or other documents are required to be paid or filed within the next ninety (90) days in order to maintain the effectiveness of any
Business Registered IP or obtain or complete the registration thereof. The Business Registered IP is subsisting, and, to the Seller’s knowledge valid and enforceable, without any qualification, limitation or restriction thereon or on the use
thereof (provided however, no representation or warranty is made regarding the validity or enforceability of any patent application), and the Seller Group has not received any notice or claim challenging or questioning the validity or enforceability
or alleging the misuse of 

  

 12 

 
any of the Business Registered IP. Except as may be set forth in Section 2.8(a)(5) of the Disclosure Schedule, the Seller Group has not taken any action
or failed to take any action (including, in the case of Business Registered Marks, by failing to reasonably police the Business Registered Marks against third party infringement or failing to continuously use any Business Registered Mark in the form
appearing in, and in connection with the goods and services listed in, the respective registration certificate), which action or failure reasonably would be expected to result in the abandonment, cancellation, forfeiture, relinquishment,
invalidation or unenforceability of any of the Business Registered IP. There is no relevant prior art pertaining to any issued Business Patent of which the Seller Group has become aware that was not disclosed during the prosecution of the patent
application(s) therefor, but which if such prior art had been disclosed reasonably would have been expected to have a material affect on the scope of the patent claims ultimately granted in respect thereof. 
  
 (b) Actions to Protect Trade Secrets and Intellectual
Property. The Seller Group has taken commercially reasonable steps to protect its rights in the Intellectual Property developed or acquired by the Seller Group and to maintain the confidentiality of all information that constitutes or that at
any time constituted a Business Trade Secret, including without limitation by taking reasonable steps to ensure that material information disclosed by the Seller Group to a third party is subject to the confidentiality undertakings set forth in a
suitable non-disclosure agreement, but excluding any information that, prior to its publication or unrestricted disclosure to a third party, the Seller Group determined in its reasonable business judgment not to continue to protect as a Trade Secret
(including any information that the Seller Group reasonably determined to be of insufficient value to protect as a Trade Secret). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all current and former employees, consultants and contractors of the
Seller Group who have materially participated in the creation of any Intellectual Property that is used in the conduct of the Business have entered into proprietary information, confidentiality and assignment agreements substantially in the Seller
Group’s standard forms (which have previously been provided to Purchaser). The Seller Group has not disclosed, nor is the Seller Group under any contractual or other obligation to disclose, to another Person any Business Trade Secrets,
excluding any information that, prior to its publication or unrestricted disclosure to a third party, the Seller Group determined in its reasonable business judgment not to continue to protect as a Trade Secret (including any information that the
Seller Group reasonably determined to be of insufficient value to protect as a Trade Secret), except pursuant to an enforceable confidentiality agreement or undertaking, or except as necessary as part of a confidential filing with or requirement
with respect to any Government Entity, and, to the knowledge of the Seller Group, no Person has materially breached any such agreement or undertaking. 
  
 (c) Ownership. The Seller Group owns exclusively all right, title and interest in and to the Business Registered IP and all other
Intellectual Property used in the Business that is not licensed to the Seller Group pursuant to a valid and enforceable license agreement, free and clear of any Claim (other than a Permitted Claim), and the Seller Group has not received any notice
or claim challenging or questioning the Seller Group’s ownership of any of such Intellectual Property. None of such Intellectual Property owned by or exclusively licensed to the Seller Group is subject to any outstanding order, judgment, or
stipulation restricting the use or commercial exploitation thereof by the Seller Group in the Business. 
  

 13 

 (d) License Agreements. Section 2.8(d) of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth
a complete and accurate list of all agreements granting to the Seller Group any material right under or with respect to any Intellectual Property used in the Business other than standard Software applications used generally in the Seller
Group’s operations and that are licensed for an annual fee of no more than $15,000 pursuant to “shrink wrap” or “click through” licenses (collectively, the “Inbound License Agreements”), indicating for each the
title and the parties thereto. Section 2.8(d) of the Disclosure Schedule also sets forth a complete and accurate list the amount of any future royalty, license fee or other payments that may become payable by the Seller Group under each such
Inbound License Agreements by reason of the use or exploitation of the Intellectual Property licensed thereunder. The rights licensed under each Inbound License Agreement shall be exercisable by the Purchaser on and after the Initial Closing to the
same extent as by the Seller Group prior to the Initial Closing. No loss or expiration of any material Intellectual Property licensed to the Seller Group under any Inbound License Agreement is pending or reasonably foreseeable or, to the knowledge
of the Seller Group, threatened. Except as set forth in Section 2.8(d) of the Disclosure Schedule, no licensor under any Inbound License Agreement has any ownership or exclusive license rights in or with respect to any improvements made by the
Seller Group to the Intellectual Property licensed thereunder. Section 2.8(d) of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth a complete and accurate list of all license agreements under which the Seller Group licenses to a third party any rights under
any Business Intellectual Property (collectively, the “Outbound License Agreements” and, together with the Inbound License Agreements, the “Material License Agreements”), excluding non-exclusive, end user licenses granted by the
Seller Group to customers in the ordinary course of business pursuant to the agreements substantially in the Seller Group’s standard forms (which have previously been provided to Purchaser), indicating for each the title and the parties
thereto. There is no outstanding or, to the Seller’s knowledge, threatened dispute or disagreement with respect to any Material License Agreement that would reasonably be expected to materially affect any of the respective rights and
obligations of the parties thereunder. The assignment of the Material License Agreements to Purchaser at the Initial Closing in the manner contemplated hereby will not result in the loss or impairment of, or give rise to any right of any third party
to terminate or reprice or otherwise modify any of the Seller Group’s rights or obligations under any Material License Agreement. 
  
 (e) Sufficiency of IP Assets. The Business Intellectual Property assigned to Purchaser at the Initial Closing and the Intellectual
Property licensed under the Inbound License Agreements listed in Section 2.8(d) of the Disclosure Schedule collectively constitute all the Intellectual Property used in or held or held for use in, or necessary for the conduct of, the Business
as it is currently conducted, excluding standard Software applications used generally in the Seller Group’s operations and that are licensed for an annual license fee of no more than $10,000 pursuant to “shrink wrap” or “click
through” licenses. The Business Intellectual Property constitutes all of the Intellectual Property owned by the Seller Group that is used in the Business. 
  

(f) No Infringement by the Seller Group or Third Parties. None of the Business Products or services sold, distributed or
otherwise provided by the Seller Group prior to the Initial Closing in connection with the conduct of the Business, nor any technology or materials used, distributed or otherwise commercially exploited by the Seller Group prior to the Initial
Closing in connection with the conduct of the Business, nor any other commercial 

  

 14 

 
activities or operations of the Seller Group relating to the conduct of the Business prior to the Initial Closing has in any material respect infringed upon,
misappropriated, violated, diluted or constituted the unauthorized use of, or does infringe upon, misappropriate, violate, dilute or constitute the unauthorized use of, any rights owned or controlled by any third party, including any Intellectual
Property of any third party (excluding any such rights that have been determined by final order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable). No Intellectual Property used by the Seller Group in connection with
the Business (including Intellectual Property licensed from a third party) is subject to any outstanding order, judgment, decree, stipulation or agreement of which the Seller Group has received notice that restricts the use thereof by the Seller
Group in connection with the Business or, in the case of any Intellectual Property licensed to others, that restricts the sale, transfer, assignment or licensing thereof by the Seller Group to any person. To the Seller’s knowledge, no third
party is misappropriating, infringing, diluting or violating any Business Intellectual Property or any Intellectual Property used in the Business that is exclusively licensed to the Seller Group. 
  
 (g) Software. Except as disclosed in
Section 2.8(g) of the Disclosure Schedule, all Software that is or was incorporated in any Business Products or that was or is used in the design or development of any Business Products was either (A) developed by employees of Seller Group
within the scope of their employment, (B) developed by independent contractors who have expressly assigned their rights and interest therein to the Seller Group pursuant to written agreements, or (C) otherwise acquired by the Seller Group
from a third party pursuant to a written agreement in which the ownership rights therein were expressly assigned to the Seller Group. None of the Software developed by or for the Seller Group and that is used in the Business contains any Software or
was developed using tools, proprietary languages, or other materials that embody Intellectual Property of any person other than the Seller Group except for any such Software or materials that the Seller Group obtained from a third party that makes
such Software or materials generally available to all interested purchasers or end-users on standard commercial terms and that have licensed the Seller Group to utilize such Software or materials in the manner that they have been utilized by the
Seller Group. No source code of any Software owned by or exclusively licensed to the Seller Group and used primarily in the Business has been licensed or otherwise provided to another person other than an escrow agent with which such Software was
deposited pursuant to the terms of a source code escrow agreement in customary form, and the Seller Group has taken reasonable steps to protect all such source code as a Trade Secret of the Seller Group, excluding any such source code that, prior to
its publication or unrestricted disclosure to a third party, the Seller Group determined in its reasonable business judgment not to continue to protect as a Trade Secret. Except as disclosed in Section 2.8(g) of the Disclosure Schedule, none of
the Business Products, in whole or in part, incorporates or is distributed with any Open Source Software. None of the Software incorporated in any of the Business Products (including any proprietary Software developed by the Seller Group without the
use of any Open Source Software), by reason of the manner in which such Software is linked or otherwise integrated with any Open Source Software, is, in whole or in part, subject to the terms of any license under which such Open Source Software was
made available. The Seller Group has taken commercially reasonable steps to ensure that all Software used by the Seller Group in connection with the Business is free of any disabling codes or instructions, and any virus or other intentionally
created, undocumented contaminant, that may, or may be used to, access, modify, delete, damage or disable any of internal computer systems (including hardware, Software, databases and embedded control systems) of the Seller Group. The Seller Group
has 

  

 15 

 
taken commercially reasonable steps to safeguard such systems and restrict unauthorized access thereto. The Seller Group has taken all actions customary in
its industry for a company of a size and type similar to the Seller Group to document the Seller Group’s proprietary Software (including the source code and related documentation) that is used in the Business and its operation such that such
proprietary Software (including the source code and related documentation) has been written in professional manner. No royalties, fees, honoraria or other payments are payable by the Seller Group to any person by reason of the ownership, use, sale,
licensing, distribution or other exploitation of any Software used in the Business. 
  
 (h) Performance of Existing Software Products. Each of the Business Products that contain Software currently perform, in all
material respects, free of bugs or programming errors that materially adversely affect the functionality of such Business Products, the functions described in any agreed specifications or end user documentation provided to customers of the Seller
Group. 
  
 (i) Transfers. The Seller Group
has not transferred ownership of, or granted any exclusive license with respect to, any Intellectual Property that is material to the Business and the Business Products. Upon the Initial Closing, Purchaser shall succeed to all of the Intellectual
Property rights necessary for the conduct of the Business as it is currently and proposed to be conducted and all of such rights shall be exercisable by Purchaser to the same extent as by the Seller Group prior to the Initial Closing. 
  
 (j) Restrictions on Employees. To the knowledge of
the Seller and except as set forth in Section 2.8(j) of the Disclosure Schedule, no employee or independent contractor of the Seller Group who is employed in connection with the Business is obligated under any agreement, or subject to any
judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative agency, or any other legal restriction, that materially interferes with such employee or contractor carrying out his or her duties for the Seller Group or that would conflict with the Business
as presently conducted. Except as set forth in Section 2.8(j) of the Disclosure Schedule, to the knowledge of the Seller, the Seller Group is not utilizing, nor will it be necessary to utilize in connection with the Business for making the
Business Products, any inventions of any employees of the Seller Group (or persons the Seller Group currently intends to hire), or any confidential information (including Trade Secrets) of another person to which such employees were exposed, prior
to their employment by the Seller Group. To the Seller’s knowledge, at no time during the conception of or reduction to practice of any Business Intellectual Property used in the Business owned or developed by the Seller Group was any
developer, inventor or other contributor to such Intellectual Property operating under any grants from any Governmental Entity or private source, performing research sponsored by any Governmental Entity or private source or subject to any employment
agreement or invention assignment or nondisclosure agreement or other obligation with any third party that could materially adversely affect the Seller Group’s rights in such Intellectual Property. 
  
 2.9 Contracts. 
  
 (a) Section 2.9(a) of the Disclosure Schedule lists all
of the contracts, agreements and instruments that are material to the Business as presently conducted 

  

 16 

 
(collectively, the “Material Contracts”), including the following, in each case only to the extent related to the Business:

Liabilities in excess of $100,000 per annum, or the sale of products (other than purchase and sale orders) or rendering of services, by any member of the Seller Group, subsequent to the date of this Agreement;

benefits, in each case affecting any Contemplated Transferred Employee or independent contractor whose engagement by the Seller is principally related to the Business, excluding any such plan or agreement terminable on less than 30 days notice
without penalty (other than the payment of severance benefits in accordance with the Seller Group’s policies);

 No party to any
such Material Contract has asserted to the Seller or Interconnect in writing that the Seller Group (including, for such purpose, any other Affiliate of the Seller that is party 

  

 17 

 
thereto) is in default in any material respect of any Material Contract that is included in the Acquired Assets (the “Included Material
Contracts”), and there exists no default or event of default or event, occurrence, condition or act with respect to Interconnect or the Seller (including, for such purpose, any other Affiliate of the Seller that is party thereto) or, to the
knowledge of the Seller, with respect to the other contracting party, which, with the giving of notice, the lapse of time or the happening of any other event or conditions, would become a material default or material event of default under any
Included Material Contract. 
  
 (b) The Seller
has made true and correct copies of all such Included Material Contracts available to the Purchaser. Each Included Material Contract is in full force and effect and is a legal, valid and binding obligation of any member of the Seller Group party
thereto, as the case may be, and each other party thereto, enforceable against each party in accordance with its terms, except (i) as rights to indemnity thereunder may be limited by Applicable Laws or the public policies embodied therein,
(ii) as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (iii) as the remedy of specific performance and
other forms of injunctive relief may be subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought. All the Included Material Contracts have been entered into on an arms-length basis.

  
 (c) Schedule 2.9(c) lists all necessary
consents, waivers and approvals of all Governmental Entities and all parties to any Assumed Contract as are required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Transaction Agreements and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby in order to avoid any breach or default thereunder or the loss of any material rights thereunder, or to avoid the creation of any right to accelerate, terminate, modify or cancel any Assumed Contracts
including all such consents, approvals or waivers necessary to validly transfer and assign the Acquired Assets and all Assumed Contracts to Purchaser (the “Requisite Consents”). 
  
 (d) The Seller Group has obtained all necessary approvals,
registrations and filings of all Governmental Entities in China as are required in connection with the effectiveness and enforceability of the Assumed Contracts. 
  
 2.10 Legal Proceedings. Other than with respect to Tax, Intellectual Property, employee and Environmental Law matters
(which are exclusively addressed in Section 2.6, Section 2.8, Section 2.11 and Section 2.12, respectively), there is no Legal Proceeding with respect to the Business pending and, to the knowledge of
the Seller, no such Legal Proceeding is threatened, against Interconnect or any Affiliate of Interconnect, before any court, arbitrator, mediator or other Governmental Entity which, if adversely determined, would reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. Interconnect is not with respect to the Business subject to any outstanding judgment, injunction or other order or ruling of, or settlement issued or approved by, any court or other Governmental Entity. Except as set forth
in Section 2.10 of the Disclosure Schedule, no Governmental Entity has at any time challenged the legal right of any member of the Seller Group to design, develop, promote, sell, license, manufacture, import, export, use, distribute or provide
any of the Business Products, own or operate any of the Acquired Assets, or conduct the Business, which challenge remains outstanding as of the date hereof.

or work stoppage against the Seller pending or, to the best knowledge of the Seller, threatened involving the Business, (ii) to the best knowledge of the Seller, neither the Seller nor any Representative or employee of the Seller has committed

Board or any comparable state agency pending or, to the best knowledge of the Seller, threatened in writing and relating to the operation of the Business and (iv) other than in the Ordinary Course, there are no material employment related

Environmental Permits or any other Environmental matters.

promotion, export, import, distribution or provision of the Business Products) or the holding of any such interest (collectively, the “Authorizations”). Such Authorizations constitute all of the material Authorizations required to
permit the Seller to operate or conduct the Business as currently conducted or to hold any interest in the Acquired Assets. The Seller has complied in all material respects with the terms and conditions of the Authorizations included in the Acquired
Assets, and the same will not be subject to suspension, modification, revocation or non-renewal as a result of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, any Transaction Agreement, or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or

or properties of the Seller Group or any of their Affiliates any documents, drawings or other materials that might reveal any such confidential information. 
  
 5.2 Mutual Covenants. 
  
 (a) Confidentiality. 
  
 (i) No party hereto shall issue any press release or make any other public announcement or disclosure relating to this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written approval of the other party, except that each of the Seller and the Purchaser reserves the right, without the other party’s prior consent, to make any disclosure it believes in good
faith is required by applicable securities laws or securities listing standards (in which case the disclosing party agrees to use reasonable efforts to advise the other party before making the disclosure). 
  
 (ii) Each party shall continue to abide by that certain
confidentiality letter agreement dated as of September 29, 2005 (the “Nondisclosure Agreement”), by and between the Seller and Investcorp International Inc., the terms of which are incorporated by reference in this Agreement,
and which terms shall survive until the Initial Closing, at which time the Nondisclosure Agreement shall terminate; provided, however, that the Purchaser’s obligations shall terminate only in respect of that portion of 

  

 29 

 
the Evaluation Material (as such term is defined in the Nondisclosure Agreement) exclusively relating to the Business that is the subject of the transactions
contemplated under this Agreement; and provided, further, that if this Agreement is, for any reason, terminated before the Initial Closing, the Nondisclosure Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. Except as contemplated by

 (iii) For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 5.2(a) shall prohibit the Purchaser
from disclosing information relating to this Agreement to any of its Representatives, provided that such persons are subject to nondisclosure obligations in favor of the Purchaser that are no less favorable to the Seller than the
Nondisclosure Agreement, and which the Purchaser shall enforce to the fullest extent.

Best Efforts to (i) make all necessary and appropriate filings with all applicable Governmental Entities and obtain all required approvals and clearances with respect thereto, (ii) obtain all consents, waivers, approvals, authorizations

may be reasonably requested by any other party to evidence the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and to carry into effect the intents and purposes of this Agreement. 
  
 (e) Third Party Consents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this Agreement does
not effect an assignment of any Contract, instrument or other right otherwise included in the Acquired Assets, which prohibits any assignment otherwise contemplated by this Agreement and for which the Seller has not obtained a required consent to
assignment or given a required notice as of the Initial Closing. As to any of those agreements so designated in writing by the Purchaser and listed on Schedule 5.2(e) of this Agreement, the Seller shall use its Best Efforts to obtain any
required consent(s) promptly after the Initial Closing. If (i) any such required consent is not obtained with respect to any such Assumed Contract and (ii) notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.2(g), the Purchaser shall elect to
consummate the Initial Closing, the Seller and the Purchaser shall cooperate in an arrangement 

  

 30 

 
reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser and the Seller under which the Purchaser would obtain, to the extent practicable, the claims, rights and benefits
arising under such Assumed Contract and assume the corresponding obligations thereunder in accordance with this Agreement, including subcontracting, sub-licensing or sub-leasing to the Purchaser, or under which the Seller would enforce for the
benefit and at the expense of the Purchaser, with the Purchaser assuming the Seller’s obligations, any and all claims, rights and benefits of the Seller against a third party thereto. The Seller will promptly pay to the Purchaser when received
all moneys received by the Seller under any Assumed Contract or any claim, right or benefit arising thereunder not transferred to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 5.2.

cause to be preserved and kept, all books and records in respect of the Business (which are not included in the Acquired Assets) for the longer of (i) any applicable statute of limitations, (ii) any specified period of time required under

Liabilities that are not released or otherwise discharged before the Initial Closing.

likely to cause any condition set forth in Article 6 to be unsatisfied at the Initial Closing Date and (ii) any material failure of any party to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied
by it hereunder; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 5.6 shall not limit or otherwise 

  

 31 

 
affect the remedies available hereunder to the party receiving such notice. On or before the Initial Closing Date, the Seller shall provide in writing to the
Purchaser (i) an updated Section 2.9(a) of the Disclosure Schedule that includes any and all Contracts entered into by the Seller Group between the date hereof and the Initial Closing Date in compliance with the terms of

for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the China Agreement. The Seller shall cause K&S Suzhou to enter into the China Agreement, and the Purchaser shall cause such Affiliate organized under the laws of China to enter into the
China Agreement.

or Affiliates of any member of the Seller Group (any of the foregoing, a “Sellers Representative”) to directly or indirectly, take any of the following actions: 
  
 (a) solicit, initiate, entertain, or encourage any proposals or offers from, or conduct discussions with,
provide information to or engage in negotiations with, any person other than Purchaser or its Representatives relating to any possible acquisition of the Business or any portion thereof (but excluding any such acquisition to the extent relating
exclusively to the wafer test business of the Seller) (the foregoing, a “Competing Transaction”); 
  
 (b) provide information with respect to the Business or the Business Products to any Person known by the Seller to be considering a
Competing Transaction, other than Purchaser and its designees, relating to, or otherwise cooperate with, facilitate or encourage any effort or attempt by any person with regard to, any Competing Transaction; 
  
 (c) enter into an agreement with person, other than
Purchaser and its designees, providing for any Competing Transaction; or

 32 

 5.9 Key Customers. The Purchaser shall have the right to contact and/or meet with those customers
of the Business identified on Section 5.9 of the Disclosure Schedule for the sole purpose of introducing the Purchaser to such customers and determining, if possible, such customers’ intentions with respect to future business with the
Purchaser; provided that all communications with such customers shall be directed only to the persons identified on Section 5.9 of the Disclosure Schedule (or to such other persons as such persons may direct), and the Purchaser shall have no
right to contact any such person without the participation of a representative of the Seller; and further provided that all such meetings and contacts shall take place on or before February 7, 2006 (such date, subject to extensions mutually

Initial Termination Date, and otherwise the Purchaser shall waive all rights of termination pursuant to this Section 5.9. The Seller shall cooperate with the Purchaser’s contacts and meetings with customers pursuant to this
Section 5.9. 
  
 5.10 Certain Covenants Related to
Shared Contracts. The Seller and the Purchaser acknowledge that the contracts and arrangements that are listed or described on Section 5.10 of the Disclosure Schedule shall not be included in the Acquired Assets and shall not be assigned by
the Seller to the Purchaser (such contracts and arrangements are referred to herein as the “Shared Contracts”). At the Purchaser’s request, with respect to any Shared Contract, the Seller shall cooperate with the Purchaser in
any reasonable manner in connection with the Purchaser’s efforts to obtain the agreement of the other party or parties to any Shared Contract to enter into a separate agreement with the Purchaser with respect to the matters covered by such
Shared Contract as they relate to the Business; provided, however, that such cooperation shall not include any requirement of the Seller to expend money or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any third party.
With respect to any Shared Contract with respect to which the Seller and the Purchaser are unable to obtain a separate agreement between the Purchaser and the other party or parties, the Purchaser shall have the right to require that the Seller
perform any such Shared Contract to the extent it relates to the Business, as agent for and for the account of the Purchaser, for the remaining term of such contract; provided that the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller for any and all costs,
expenses, Losses and Liabilities incurred by the Seller in connection with taking such action. Without limiting the foregoing, with respect to any Shared Contract that involves the sale of Business Products to a customer of the Business, until the
earlier of (x) such time as the Seller ceases to operate the Business on behalf of the Purchaser in China pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement and/or the China Agreement and (y) such time as the Purchaser is able to obtain a
separate agreement between the Purchaser and the customer, the Seller shall continue to supply Business Products to the applicable customer in response to purchase orders received from the customer under the Shared Contract, as agent for and for the
account of the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller for any and all costs, expenses and Losses incurred by the Seller in connection with the provision of Business Products by the Seller in response to such purchase orders.

 5.11 Maintenance of Insurance Policies. 
  
 (a) On and after the date hereof (including after the
Initial Closing Date), the Seller shall not unreasonably take or fail to take any action if such action or inaction, as the case may be, would adversely affect the applicability of any insurance in effect on the date hereof that covers all or any
part of the Acquired Assets or the Business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall not have any obligation to make any monetary payment to maintain the effectiveness of any such insurance policy after the Initial Closing Date. 

 
 (b) The Seller shall take or cause to be taken all
reasonable actions within its power to cause the Purchaser to be the direct or indirect beneficiary of, or otherwise gain the benefit of, any occurrence-based insurance policies applicable to the Acquired Assets or the Business (“Occurrence
Insurance Policies”), including that the Seller shall, to the extent permissible by Applicable Law and the terms of such Insurance Policies, take all reasonable actions (but without any additional costs and expenses) necessary to
(i) assign to the Purchaser the Seller’s rights to recovery under the Insurance Policies with respect to any claims asserted against the Purchaser in connection with occurrences arising prior to the Initial Closing Date, subject to the
provisions of this Section 5.11, and (ii) with respect to any such Occurrence Insurance Policy that is not assignable to the Purchaser as provided herein, (A) retain and maintain, including after the Initial Closing Date, such
Insurance Policy as it applies to occurrences prior to the Initial Closing Date, (B) from time to time and at the Purchaser’s request, the submit claims and aggressively pursue the benefits under such Occurrence Insurance Policy with
respect to occurrences arising prior to the Initial Closing Date and (C) promptly apply any amounts recovered from any such Insurance Policy to pay such claims and any costs incurred in defending the same, and 
  
 (c) With respect to any Damages incurred by the Purchaser or
the Business as a result of an action, suit, hearing, arbitration, proceeding (public or private) governmental investigation arising from or connected to the operation of the Business, the Seller or the Acquired Assets prior to the Initial Closing,
or otherwise such Damages shall be deemed reduced for purposes of Article 8 to the extent that amounts are paid to the Purchaser in connection therewith from any Insurance Policy. 
  
 (d) With respect to any Damages incurred by the Seller as a result of an action, suit, hearing, arbitration,
proceeding (public or private) or governmental investigation arising from or connected to the operation of the Business or the Acquired Assets prior to the Initial Closing, the Seller shall continue to be a joint beneficiary of any Insurance Policy
covering such Damages. 
  
 5.12 Covenants of the Purchaser and
the Seller with respect to Warranty Obligations. With respect to the products sold by the Seller as part of the Business prior to the Initial Closing, the Seller acknowledges that it is retaining as an Excluded Liability the obligation to
perform warranty services and/or to satisfy the refund, return or exchange obligations under the Seller’s product warranties, copies of which are attached as Schedule 2.19 (the “Product Warranties”). To the extent the Seller is
required to perform warranty services or to satisfy refund, return or exchange obligations under a Product Warranty, (a) the Purchaser agrees to perform such warranty services or satisfy such refund, return or exchange obligations under the
Product Warranty and (b) the Seller agrees to pay or reimburse the Purchaser for the Purchaser’s direct 

  

 34 

 
costs and expenses incurred in connection with such warranty services or satisfying such refund, return, or exchange obligations, including the costs to the
Purchaser of any parts (based on the Purchaser’s actual cost of manufacturing or acquiring such parts) plus freight and direct labor incurred by the Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.12, (a) if the
terms of the Product Warranty permit the Seller to provide alternative remedies or to choose a remedy in the event of a defective Product that is covered by a Product Warranty (a “Covered Defect”), then, in the event of a Covered Defect,
the Purchaser will be entitled, in good faith, to provide any such alternative remedy (and to obtain reimbursement from the Seller) (provided that the Seller shall be obligated to reimburse the Purchaser for only the lesser of the repair or
replacement cost), (b) if the Product Warranty permits the Seller to provide a remedy if the Seller determines a defect is due to a covered cause or words of similar effect, the Seller shall be deemed to have made such determination if a remedy
is provided by the Purchaser and there is in fact a Covered Defect, and (c) except in the case of a good faith dispute, the Purchaser shall not be obligated to perform any warranty service for which the Seller is obligated to reimburse the
Purchaser unless the Purchaser in good faith believes the Seller will promptly reimburse the Seller therefor. The Purchaser shall periodically invoice the Seller for its costs incurred to satisfy the foregoing obligations, together with supporting
documentation thereof, and the Seller shall promptly remit such payments to the Purchaser. In connection with any reasonable business purpose with respect to the foregoing, upon reasonable prior notice, and except as reasonably necessary to ensure
compliance with any applicable laws, privileges (including the attorney-client privilege) and contractual confidentiality obligations, the Purchaser shall, and shall cause its respective Representatives to, afford the Representatives of the Seller
Group reasonable access, during normal business hours, to the books and records of the Purchaser in respect of the foregoing and make reasonably available to the Representatives of the Seller Group the employees of the Purchaser and its Affiliates
whose assistance, expertise, testimony, notes and recollections or presence is reasonably necessary to assist the Seller Group in connection with its inquiries for any of the purposes referred to above. Such investigation shall not unreasonably
interfere with the business or operations of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, and the auditors and accountants of the Purchaser or its Affiliates shall not be obligated to make any work papers available to any person unless and until such
person has signed a customary agreement relating to such access to work papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such auditors or accountants. 
  
 5.13 Assistance in Proceedings. 
  
 (a) The Seller will reasonably cooperate with Purchaser and its counsel in the contest or defense of, and make available its personnel and
provide any testimony and access to its books and records in connection with, any claim, cause of action or proceeding involving or relating to (i) any transaction contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) any action, activity, circumstance,
condition, conduct, event, fact, failure to act, incident, occurrence, plan, practice, situation, status or transaction on or before the Initial Closing Date involving the Business. 
  
 (b) The Purchaser will reasonably cooperate with Seller and its counsel in the contest or defense of, and
make available its personnel and provide any testimony and access to its books and records in connection with, any claim, cause of action or proceeding involving or relating to (i) any transaction contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) any
action, activity, 

  

 35 

 
circumstance, condition, conduct, event, fact, failure to act, incident, occurrence, plan, practice, situation, status or transaction after the Initial
Closing Date involving the Business. 
  
 5.14 Customer and
Other Business Relationships. From the date hereof until the six month anniversary of the Initial Closing Date, the Seller Group will (and will cause K&S Suzhou to) cooperate with the Purchaser, at the Purchaser’s sole expense, in its
efforts to continue and maintain for the benefit of the Purchaser those business relationships of the Seller Group existing prior to the Initial Closing relating to the Business, including relationships with lessors, employees, regulatory
authorities, licensors, customers, suppliers and others, and the Seller will satisfy the Excluded Liabilities in a manner that, in its reasonable judgment, is not detrimental to any of such relationships. The Seller Group will refer to the Purchaser
all inquiries to the extent relating exclusively to the Business. 
  
 5.15 Collection of Accounts Receivables. For a period of ninety (90) days after the Initial Closing (the “Collection Period”), Purchaser shall use its reasonable efforts to collect any Accounts Receivable reflected on
the Closing Statement as having been outstanding and payable to Seller for more than 90 days as of the Closing Date (the “Aged Receivables”). Purchaser shall be entitled to use any reasonable method it determines appropriate in its
discretion with respect to its efforts to collect the Aged Receivables; provided that Purchaser shall not be required to institute any litigation or incur any expenses in connection with its collection efforts. After the expiration of the Collection
Period, Purchaser shall advise Seller of those Aged Receivables that have not been collected as of the end of the Collection Period. Within ten (10) days of receipt of such advice from Purchaser, Seller shall purchase (without recourse to
Purchaser) such Aged Receivables then remaining unpaid for a purchase price equal the full face amount thereof as reflected on the final Closing Statement. Upon Seller’s repurchase of any unpaid Aged Receivables pursuant to this
Section 5.15, (i) Purchaser shall promptly deliver to Seller any tangible evidence of such Aged Receivables then in the possession of Purchaser and (ii) Seller shall be entitled to take any reasonable actions that it may deem
necessary or appropriate in order to collect such unpaid Aged Receivables; provided, however, that Seller must first consult with Purchaser prior to instigating any formal collection proceedings or litigation in its efforts to collect such Aged
Receivables.

 (b) By either the Purchaser or the Seller for
any reason if the Initial Closing has not occurred by March 28, 2006, unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing by the parties, or such later date as the parties may agree in writing; provided, however, that a party shall not
have the right to terminate this Agreement under this provision if the failure of the Initial Closing to occur is the result of the failure on the part of such party to perform any of its obligations hereunder (except the failure on the part of such
party to satisfy a closing condition over which such party has no control); 
  

 39 

 (c) By either the Purchaser or the Seller at any time before the Initial Closing if the

employees, agents and Affiliates (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Damages incurred or suffered by the Purchaser Indemnitees to the extent arising or resulting from the following: 

 
 (a) any breach of any representation or warranty set
forth in Article 2 or Article 3; 
  
 (b) any breach of any covenant of the Seller Group set forth in this Agreement; 
  
 (c) any Excluded Liability or other Liability relating to or arising out of the operation of the Business by the Seller Group before the
Initial Closing Date other than the Assumed Liabilities; and 
  

 40 

 (d) any claim of any person that the Business activities as conducted by the Seller or
Interconnect at any time before the Initial Closing Date infringes or violates, or constitutes a misappropriation of, any Intellectual Property right of such person; and 
  
 (e) any claim (i) arising from or in connection with the employment of the Transferred Employees or
other employees of the Seller Group through the Initial Closing (including any severance related obligations), or (ii) arising from participation by the Transferred Employees in any Company Plan, including claims arising from participation by
the Transferred Employees in the Seller’s pension plan or any breach of any covenant of the Seller Group set forth in Section 10.1 or Section 10.2. 
  
 8.2 Indemnification by the Purchaser. If the Initial Closing occurs, the Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold
harmless the Seller Group and its stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Damages incurred or suffered by the Seller Indemnitees to
the extent arising or resulting from the following: 
  
 (a) any breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Article 4;

 (d) any claim of any person that the Business activities as

the Purchaser pursuant to Section 8.1(a) by reason of a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 2.8; and 
  
 (e) the conduct of the Business by the Purchaser (or its assignees or transferees) following the Initial Closing (excluding any Excluded
Liabilities and excluding any Damages arising or resulting from any Claim, event or condition, the existence of which constitutes a breach of any representation or warranty contained in Article 2 or Article 3), including any claim arising from or in
connection with the employment of the Transferred Employees or any other persons after the Initial Closing Date or the China Closing Date, as applicable. 
  
 8.3 Claim Procedure. 
  
 (a) Claim Notice. A party that seeks indemnity under this Article 8 (an “Indemnified Party”) shall give
written notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the party from whom indemnification is sought (an “Indemnifying Party”) promptly upon becoming aware of the matters forming the basis of such claim, whether the Damages sought
arise from matters solely between the parties or from third party claims described in Section 8.3(d); provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not limit the indemnification obligation of the Seller or the Purchaser
hereunder except to the extent such party has been prejudiced thereby. The Claim Notice shall contain (i) a description and, if known, estimated amount (the “Claimed Amount”) of any Damages incurred or reasonably expected to be
incurred by the Indemnified Party, (ii) a 

  

 41 

 
reasonable explanation of the basis for the Claim Notice to the extent of facts then known by the Indemnified Party, and (iii) a demand for payment of
those Damages. 
  
 (b) Response to Claim
Notice. Within 30 days after delivery of a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party a written response (the “Response”) in which the Indemnifying Party shall either: 
  
 (i) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive
all of the Claimed Amount, and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the Claimed Amount in accordance with a payment and distribution method reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party; or 
  
 (ii) dispute that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount (in such an event,
the Response shall be referred to as an “Objection Notice”). If the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party dispute any portion of the Claimed Amount, but nonetheless agree that a related payment will be required to be made
pursuant to Article 8, the amount of such payment that the parties do not dispute shall be paid immediately. 
  
 If no Response is delivered by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party within such 30-day period, the Indemnifying Party is deemed to have agreed that an amount
equal to the entire Claimed Amount shall be payable to the Indemnified Party and such Claimed Amount shall be payable in accordance with the provisions of this Article 8. 
  
 (c) Contested Claims. If the Indemnifying Party disputes its obligation to pay all of the Claimed
Amount, as soon as practicable but in no event later than 20 days after the receipt of the Objection Notice, the parties shall submit the matter to non-binding mediation by a mutually-acceptable mediator to be chosen within 20 days thereafter;
provided that in the case of a third party claim under Section 8.3(d), such mediation shall not be initiated until following the resolution of such claim. Neither party may unreasonably withhold consent to the selection of the mediator. If the
parties are unable to resolve the dispute relating to the Claimed Amount within 15 days after the commencement of the mediation proceedings, the parties shall submit the matter to binding arbitration in New York, NY. All claims shall be settled by
three arbitrators in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “ADR Rules”). The arbitrators shall decide the issues submitted in accordance with the provisions and commercial
purposes of this Agreement, provided that all substantive questions of law shall be determined under the laws of the State of New York. Discovery relating to such claims shall be conducted pursuant to the rules of the applicable Federal rules
relating to discovery. The Seller, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand, shall each designate one arbitrator within 15 days of submission to arbitration. The Seller and the Purchaser shall cause such designated arbitrators to agree
mutually upon and designate a third arbitrator within 30 days of submission to arbitration. If either party fails to timely designate an arbitrator or the so-designated arbitrators fail to timely designate a third arbitrator, then the resulting
vacancy shall be filled by an arbitrator appointed in accordance with the ADR Rules no later than 45 days of submission to arbitration. The Seller and the Purchaser shall cause the arbitrators to decide the matter to be arbitrated pursuant hereto as
soon as commercially practicable but in no event more than 30 days after the appointment of the last arbitrator. The 

  

 42 

 
arbitrators’ decision shall relate solely to whether the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive the Claimed Amount (or a portion thereof) pursuant to
the applicable terms of this Article 8 and shall not provide for any Damages or remedies that would not be available in a court of competent jurisdiction located in New York hearing such matter. The costs and expenses incurred in connection
with the arbitration shall be shared equally by the parties. The final decision of a majority of the arbitrators shall be furnished to the Seller and the Purchaser in writing setting forth the basis for the decision and shall constitute a conclusive
determination of the issue in question, binding upon the Seller and the Purchaser, and may not be contested by either party. Such decision may be used in a court of law only for the purpose of seeking enforcement of the arbitrators’ award. Upon
receipt by the parties of the final award of the majority of the arbitrators, the Seller and the Purchaser shall thereupon take such actions as are reasonably necessary to comply with such agreement or instructions. 
  
 (d) Third Party Claims. 
  
 (i) If an Indemnified Party receives notice or otherwise
learns of the assertion by a person other than a Purchaser Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee of any claim with respect to which the Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification under this Article 8, the Indemnified Party shall
give prompt written notification to the Indemnifying Party (and in any case not less than 30 days thereafter or such shorter time period as may be necessary for the Indemnified Party to respond in any formal proceeding). Such notice shall be
accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation submitted by such third party (to the extent then in the possession of the Indemnified Party) and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the Indemnified Party) the facts
constituting the basis for such suit or proceeding and the amount of the claimed damages; provided, however, that no delay or deficiency on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the
Indemnifying Party of any Liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any Damage or Liability caused by or arising out of such failure or to the extent such delay or deficiency prejudices or otherwise adversely affects the rights of
the Indemnifying Party with respect thereto. Within 20 days after delivery of such notification, the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of such suit or proceeding with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party may not assume control of the defense of a suit or proceeding involving criminal liability. If the Indemnifying Party does not so assume
control of such defense, the Indemnified Party shall control such defense. 
  
 (ii) The party not controlling such defense (the “Non-controlling Party”) may participate therein at its own expense; provided, however, that if the Indemnifying Party assumes control of
such defense and the Indemnified Party concludes, upon the written opinion of counsel, that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party have conflicting interests or different defenses available with respect to such suit or proceeding, the
Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense with counsel of its choosing and the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel to the Indemnified Party shall be considered “Damages” for purposes of this Agreement. The
party controlling such defense (the “Controlling Party”) shall keep the Non-controlling Party reasonably advised of the status of such suit or proceeding and the 

  

 43 

 
defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the Non-controlling Party with respect thereto. The Non-controlling Party shall
furnish the Controlling Party with such information as it may have with respect to such suit or proceeding (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading that may have been served on such party and any written claim, demand, invoice,
billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and shall otherwise cooperate with and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such suit or proceeding. 
  
 (iii) The Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising
from, any such suit or proceeding without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (unless any such settlement or judgment involves any admission of Liability by the
Indemnified Party or the imposition of any injunction or other equitable remedy applicable to the Indemnified Party or the Business or in any way would call into question the validity of any Business Intellectual Property); provided,
however, that the consent of the Indemnified Party shall not be required if the Indemnifying Party agrees to pay any amounts payable pursuant to such settlement or judgment and such settlement or judgment includes a full, complete and
unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from further Liability and does not include any admission of Liability by the Indemnified Party or the imposition of any injunction or other equitable remedy applicable to the Indemnified party or the
Business. The Indemnified Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such suit or proceeding without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. 
  
 8.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties and
Covenants. The representations and warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement shall (i) survive the Initial Closing and any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of an Indemnified Party and (ii) expire as follows
(the period through the relevant expiration date being referred to as the “Indemnification Period” in this Agreement): 
  
 (a) the representations set forth in Section 2.2 [Authorization], Section 2.6 [Tax Matters],
Section 2.7(a) [Assets] and Section 2.12 [Environmental Matters] shall survive the Initial Closing until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (but not any extensions or tolling thereof unless the

Notice that the Indemnified Party reasonably expects to incur Damages as a result of a breach of a representation and warranty set forth herein, which notice shall describe such breach and Damages in reasonable detail (an “Expected Claim
Notice”), then the applicable representation or warranty shall survive until, but only for purposes of, the resolution of the matter covered by such notice; provided that the Purchaser is actively pursuing the resolution of such matter. If
the legal proceeding with respect to which an Expected Claim Notice has been given is definitively withdrawn or resolved in favor of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall promptly so notify the Indemnifying Party. 
  
 8.5 Limitations. 
  
 (a) Seller’s Liability. 
  
 (i) In no event shall the Seller’s Liability under this
Agreement (whether under this Article 8 or otherwise) exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the Purchase Price (the “Indemnity Cap”); provided, however, that the Indemnity Cap shall not apply to (A) any
Damages resulting from any breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 2.2 [Authorization], Section 2.6 [Taxes] Section 2.7(a) [Assets] and
Section 2.12 [Environmental Matters] or (B) and Damages arising under Section 9.1(a) or (C) any indemnification rights under Section 8.1(c), (d) or (e). Notwithstanding anything to the

(the “Deductible”) and, in such event, only for amounts in excess of the Deductible; provided, however that the Deductible shall not apply to any indemnification rights under Section 8.1(c), (d) or
(e), Section 9.1 or breaches of representations and warranties contained in Section 2.6. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Seller shall not be liable for any Taxes relating to the Acquired Assets as
a result of the breach of any representation or warranty contained in Section 2.6 to the extent that such Taxes are for any period after the Initial Closing Date in the case of Acquired Assets other than the Acquired Assets located in China or
for any period after the China Closing Date in the case of the Acquired Assets located in China. 
  
 (ii) The parties acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in Article 2 or Article 3, (A) neither the Seller nor
Interconnect has made or is making any representations or warranties whatsoever regarding the subject matter of this Agreement, express or implied, and (B) the Purchaser is not relying and has not relied on, any representations, warranties or
commitments whatsoever regarding the subject matter of this Agreement, express or implied. 
  
 (iii) The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made by any party to this Agreement, and the rights of any other party to
this Agreement to recover for breaches thereof, shall not be affected, limited or compromised in any respect by any actual or imputed knowledge on the part of the Purchaser or its Affiliates or Representatives, or due diligence investigation or any
other inquiries or investigations by such other party, regardless of the results thereof. Without limiting the effect of any 

  

 45 

 
other limitation contained in this Article 8, for purposes hereof, a representation or warranty of the Seller in Article 2 shall be deemed to
be or to have been inaccurate even if following the date of this Agreement and before the Initial Closing, (I) the Purchaser obtained specific knowledge of the inaccuracy of such representation or warranty and (II) the Purchaser elected
nonetheless to proceed with the Initial Closing. 
  
 (b) Purchaser’s Liability 
  
 (i) In no event shall the Purchaser’s Liability under this Agreement (whether under this Article 8 or otherwise) exceed the Indemnity Cap; provided, however, that the Indemnity Cap shall not apply to Assumed Liabilities or the
Purchaser’s obligation to pay the Purchase Price hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Seller Indemnitees shall not be entitled to assert any claims for indemnification under this Article 8 or Article 9
unless and until the aggregate Damages are in excess of the Deductible and, in such event, only for amounts in excess of the Deductible; provided, however that the Deductible shall not apply to Assumed Liabilities or to the Purchaser’s
obligations to pay the Purchase Price.

giving rise thereto. 
  
 8.6 Exclusive Remedy. Except for
the remedy of specific performance, each of the Seller, Interconnect and the Purchaser acknowledge and agree that, following the Initial Closing, the indemnification provisions of Sections 8.1 and 8.2 shall, in the absence of fraud or
an intentional and material misrepresentation of a representation or warranty contained herein, be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Seller, Interconnect and the Purchaser, respectively, for any breach of the representations or warranties in
this Agreement and for any failure to perform or comply with any covenants or agreements contained herein. In furtherance of, and subject to, the foregoing, each party hereto hereby waives, on behalf of itself and, as applicable, the Purchaser
Indemnitees or the Seller Indemnitees, from and after the Initial Closing, any and all rights, claims and causes of action it may have against the Indemnifying Parties arising under or based upon any applicable law (including Environmental Laws) or
otherwise (except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article 8); provided, that in the case of an intentional misrepresentation, the party seeking such remedy did not have actual knowledge of such
misrepresentation. 
  

 46 

 8.7 Additional Indemnification Provisions. In any case where an Indemnified Party recovers from a
third person any amount in respect of a matter for which an Indemnifying Party has previously indemnified it pursuant to this Article 8, the Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to the Indemnifying Party the amount so recovered (after
deducting therefrom the amount of expenses incurred by it in procuring such recovery), but not in excess of the sum of (i) any amount previously paid by the Indemnifying Party to or on behalf of the Indemnified Party in respect of such claim
and (ii) any amount expended by the Indemnifying Party in pursuing or defending any claim arising out of such matter. Upon payment in full of any such amounts recovered, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment
to the rights of the Indemnified Party against any person (other than an Indemnified Party) with respect to the subject matter of such claim. Any Indemnified Party shall assign or otherwise reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party to pursue
any claims against, or otherwise recover amounts from, any person liable or responsible for any Damages for which indemnification has been received pursuant to this Agreement. The obligations of the Seller to indemnify and hold harmless any
Purchaser Indemnitees with respect to any representation, warranty or covenant under this Article 8 shall terminate when the applicable representation, warranty or covenant terminates pursuant to Section 8.4. No Purchaser
Indemnitee shall have the right to assert any claim for indemnification against the Seller unless such claim has been made with reasonable specificity pursuant to Section 8.3 within the time periods provided in the preceding sentence.
The obligations of the Purchaser to indemnify and hold harmless any Seller Indemnitees with respect to any representation, warranty or covenant under this Article 8 shall terminate when the applicable representation, warranty or covenant

within the time periods provided in the preceding sentence. 
  
 8.8 Claims for Indemnification. For purposes of indemnification obligations hereunder and the calculation of any Losses, any inaccuracy in or breach of a representation or warranty shall be deemed to constitute a breach of such
representation or warranty, notwithstanding any limitation or qualification as to materiality set forth in such representation or warranty as to the scope, accuracy or completeness thereof, it being the intention of the parties that the Purchaser
and the other Indemnified Parties shall be indemnified and held harmless from and against any and all Losses arising out of or based upon or with respect to the failure of any such representation or warranty to be true, correct and complete in any
respect. 
  
 8.9 Characterization of Payments. Except as
otherwise required by applicable law, the parties shall treat any indemnification payment made under this Agreement as an adjustment to the Purchase Price. 
  
 8.10 Exercise of Remedies by Purchaser Indemnitees Other than the Purchaser. No Purchaser Indemnitee (other than the Purchaser or any successor or
assignee of the Purchaser) is entitled to assert any indemnification claim or exercise any other remedy under this Agreement unless the Purchaser (or any successor or assignee of the Purchaser) consents to the assertion of the indemnification claim
or the exercise of the other remedy. No Purchaser Indemnitee is entitled to assert any indemnification claim or exercise any other remedy under this Agreement against any Affiliate of the Seller other than the Seller Group. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Purchaser may assign its indemnification claims or 

  

 47 

 
rights to exercise other remedies under this Agreement (x) to Affiliates of the Purchaser in the sole discretion of the Purchaser or (y) to other
Persons with the consent of the Seller Group, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. 
  
 ARTICLE 9 
 CERTAIN TAX MATTERS 
  
 9.1 Liability and Indemnification for Certain Taxes. All Taxes and similar ad valorem and similar Tax obligations
levied with respect to the Acquired Assets for a taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the closing date applicable to the Acquired Asset shall be apportioned between the Seller Group and the Purchaser as of the applicable closing date
based on the number of days of such taxable period included in the period through and including the applicable closing date (“Pre-Closing Tax Period”) and the number of days of such taxable period included in the period commencing on the
day after the applicable closing date (“Post-Closing Tax Period”). The Seller Group shall be liable to the Purchaser for the proportionate amount of such Taxes that is attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period, and the Purchaser shall be
liable to the Seller Group for the proportionate amount of such Taxes that is attributable to the Post-Closing Tax Period. The Purchaser and the Seller Group each covenant to timely file such Tax Returns as either may be required to be filed with
respect to such Taxes, and within a reasonable period, the Seller Group and the Purchaser shall present a statement to the other setting forth the amount of reimbursement to which each is entitled under this Section 9.1, together with such
supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the proration amount. The proration amount shall be paid by the party owing it to the other party within ten (10) days after delivery of such statement. Any payment required under this
Section 9.1 and not made within ten (10) days after delivery of the statement shall bear interest at the rate per annum determined, from time to time, under the provisions of Section 6621(a)(2) of the Code for each day until paid.

  
 9.2 Allocation of Purchase Price. (a) As soon as
practicable after the date hereof and prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall provide the Seller with a statement containing an allocation (the “Price Allocation”) of the total consideration paid by Purchaser and the Purchaser
Entities to Seller in exchange for the Acquired Assets (including all consideration attributable to the portion of the Assumed Liabilities which are treated as purchase price for tax purposes) to the Acquired Assets (including the Acquired Assets
located in China) in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 1060 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder and any applicable comparable provisions of state, local and
foreign tax law. The Price Allocation shall be subject to the approval of the Sellers, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and the parties shall negotiate in good faith any dispute regarding the Price Allocation. The Price Allocation made
pursuant to this Section 9.2(a) shall be binding on Purchaser and the Sellers for all Tax reporting purposes. To the extent required, each party agrees to timely file an IRS Form 8594 reflecting the Price Allocation for the taxable year that
includes the Closing Date and to make any timely filing required by applicable foreign, state or local laws. 
  
 (b) Any indemnification payment treated as an adjustment to purchase price of the Acquired Assets under this Agreement shall be reflected
as an adjustment to the price allocated to a specific asset, if any, giving rise to the adjustment and if any such adjustment does not relate 
  

 48 

 
to a specific asset, such adjustment shall be allocated among the Acquired Assets in accordance with the Price Allocation method provided in this
Section 9.2(a). 
  
 (c) Each party hereto
shall adopt and utilize the Price Allocation for purposes of all Tax Returns filed by them and shall not voluntarily take any position inconsistent with the foregoing in connection with any examination of any Tax Return, any refund claim, any
litigation proceeding or otherwise, except that Purchaser’s cost for the Acquired Assets may differ from the amount so allocated to the extent necessary to reflect Purchaser’s capitalized acquisition costs other than the amount realized by
the Sellers. In the event that the Price Allocation is disputed by any taxing authority, the party receiving notice of the dispute shall promptly notify the other parties hereto of such dispute and the parties hereto shall cooperate in good faith in
responding to such dispute in order to preserve the effectiveness of the Price Allocation. 
  
 9.3 Cooperation. Each of the Seller and the Purchaser shall: 
  
 (a) Provide assistance to the other party as reasonably requested in preparing and filing Tax Returns, responding to Tax Contests and
recovering any value-added Taxes; 
  
 (b) Make
available to the other party as reasonably requested all information, records and documents relating to Taxes concerning the Business; and 
  
 (c) Retain any books and records that could reasonably be expected to be necessary or useful in connection with any preparation by any
other party of any Tax Returns, for any audit, examination or proceeding relating to Taxes. Such books and records shall be retained until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (including extensions thereof). 
  
 (d) Transfer Taxes. Notwithstanding any other
provision in this Agreement or in the Transaction Agreements to the contrary, each of the Seller and the Purchaser shall pay and be responsible for (and shall indemnify and hold harmless the other party and its respective Affiliates and agents
against) one-half of any and all Transfer Taxes imposed on the Acquired Assets or otherwise as the result of transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The parties hereto shall reasonably cooperate to ensure payment of such transfer Taxes in a
timely manner. The Purchaser shall file any Tax Returns and otherwise satisfy any reporting requirements with respect to any transfer Taxes (or exemptions with respect to transfer Taxes) relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
“Transfer Tax” means any tax imposed on the transferor or transferee of property by any taxing jurisdiction by reason of the transfer, or any tax that becomes a lien on the property transferred by reason of the transfer, including without
limitation any stamp duty, sales, use or excise tax or taxes of a similar nature. Transfer Tax shall not include any taxes imposed on the Seller or transferor of property that is measured by reference to the net income or gain of the Seller or
transferor or any China Taxes, which shall be the sole responsibility of Seller.

of the employ of the Seller. 
  
 (ii) Unless
otherwise agreed to in writing by the Purchaser, during the Nonsolicitation Period, the Seller shall not call upon any Transferred Employee or any person who is, at the time the person is called upon, an employee of the Purchaser for the purpose or

 (b) Noncompetition. 
  
 (i) For a period of two years after the Initial Closing, the Seller shall not, and shall cause its
Affiliates to not, engage, directly or indirectly, including as an owner, member, manager, partner, shareholder, advisor or consultant, in any business that competes anywhere in the world with the Business as conducted on the Initial Closing Date
(the “Restricted Business”); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit or otherwise restrict any acquisition of the Seller or any of its Affiliates by any person, including by means of a business
combination, merger, consolidation, issuance of securities, acquisition of securities, tender offer, exchange offer or otherwise, in which a person or “group” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules
promulgated thereunder) of persons directly or indirectly acquires beneficial or record ownership or voting power of securities representing more than 15% of the outstanding securities of any class of voting securities of the Seller or its
Affiliates or in which such transaction constitutes or accounts for 15% or more of the consolidated net revenues, net income or assets of such acquiring person. 
  
 (ii) In addition to the foregoing, for a period of two years after the Initial Closing, the Seller shall
not, and shall cause its Affiliates to not, acquire (whether by acquisition of assets, merger or otherwise) any Business Entity for whom revenues from the Restricted Business represented an amount greater than 25% of such entity’s aggregate
revenues during such entity’s last fiscal year, or is reasonably projected to represent an amount greater than 25% of such entity’s aggregate projected revenues during such entity’s next fiscal year (a “Relevant
Acquisition”); provided, however, that the Seller or its Affiliates may make a Relevant Acquisition if (x) its primary purpose in making such Relevant Acquisition is not to exploit for profit such Restricted Business, or
(y) within nine months of the consummation of such Relevant Acquisition, the Seller or its Affiliate has disposed of (or ceased operating) the entity or portion thereof whose business constituted the Restricted Business. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 10.4, if the Seller or any of its Affiliates makes an acquisition of a Business Entity for which the Restricted Business is below the levels specified in subclauses (i) and (ii) of this
Section 10.4(b) (a “Permitted Acquisition”), the Business Entity so acquired may continue with the Restricted Business. 
  
 (iii) If any provision contained in this Section 10.4(b) shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Section 10.4(b), but this Section 10.4(b) shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had
never been contained herein. It is the intention of the parties that if any of the restrictions or covenants contained herein is held to cover a geographic area or to be for a length of time that is not permitted by applicable law, or in any way
construed to be too broad or to any extent invalid, such provision shall not be construed to be null, void and of no effect, but to the extent such provision would be valid or enforceable under applicable law, a court of competent jurisdiction shall
construe and interpret or reform this Section 10.4(b) to provide for a covenant having the maximum enforceable geographic area, time period and other provisions (not greater than those contained herein) as shall be valid and enforceable
under such applicable law. The Seller and the 

  

 53 

 
Purchaser acknowledge that the other could be irreparably harmed by any breach of this Section 10.4(b) and that there would be no adequate remedy
at law or in damages to compensate the Purchaser or the Seller, as applicable, for any such breach. The Seller or the Purchaser, as applicable, shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief requiring specific performance by the other party of this
Section 10.4(b).

 (a) Subject to Section 5.15 if
the Seller or Interconnect receives any payment (i) in respect of any Accounts Receivable included in the Acquired Assets or (ii) for a Business Product or any other product or service sold by or on behalf of Purchaser after the Initial
Closing, the Seller or Interconnect, as the case may be, shall promptly remit such funds to the Purchaser. 
  
 (b) If the Purchaser receives any payment for any product (other than any Business Product) or service sold by or on behalf of the Seller
or Interconnect after the Initial Closing, the Purchaser shall promptly remit such funds to the Seller. 
  
 (c) In furtherance of the foregoing, if any party receives a payment from a third party that, pursuant to the terms hereof, should have
been paid to another party hereto, the party who receives the payment agrees to hold in trust and promptly remit such payment to the party entitled thereto. If either party receives a payment from a customer that cannot be identified to a specific
invoice or obligation, the recipient shall, if reasonable under the circumstances, inquire of the customer as to the intended application thereof and, lacking a response, the payment shall be applied to the oldest outstanding undisputed invoice
relating to the payor. 
  
 10.6 Certain Payroll Tax
Matters. The Seller and the Purchaser shall use the “alternate” procedure for predecessors and successors, provided in Section 5 of Revenue Procedure 2004-53, 2004-2 C.B. 320, with respect to filing and furnishing Internal Revenue
Service Forms W-2, W-3 and 941 for the calendar year of the Initial Closing. In accordance with such procedure: 
  
 (a) the Seller and the Purchaser shall report on a “predecessor-successor” basis as set forth therein; 
  
 (b) the Seller shall be relieved from furnishing Forms W-2
to Transferred Employees for the period from January 1 of such calendar year to the day of the Initial Closing; and 
  
 (c) the Purchaser shall assume the obligations of the Seller to furnish such forms to such employees for the full such calendar year and

party may delegate any performance of its obligations under this Agreement, except that the Purchaser may at any time delegate the performance of its obligations (other than the obligation to pay the Purchase Price) to any Affiliate of the Purchaser
so long as the Purchaser remains fully responsible for the performance of the delegated obligation. 
  
 11.4 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this

Purchaser is solely responsible for failure of assignment) or which is not designated on Schedule 5(l) hereto as a Contract to be assumed by Purchaser, or (3) which arises out of any lease for any period prior to the Initial Closing.

  
 Except as specifically set forth in this
Section 3(b), and notwithstanding that liabilities of Seller Group are set forth in the Schedules hereto or otherwise disclosed in connection with this Agreement (including, without limitation, the representations and warranties of Seller
Group), Purchaser is not agreeing to, and shall not, assume, pay, perform or discharge any debts, liabilities, taxes, commitments or obligations of Seller Group of any kind whatsoever, known or unknown, contingent or fixed (including costs and
expenses incurred in defending any claims therefor), including without limitation any indebtedness of Seller Group to K&S or any officer, director, employee, agent or affiliate of Seller Group.

 (d)
Net Working Capital Adjustment. 
  
 (i)
Deliverables at Signing. Attached hereto as Schedule 3(d) are (collectively, the “January 23, 2006 Working Capital Schedules”): 
  

(1) a listing of all accounts payable of the Business (“Payables”) as of January 23, 2006 and the carrying value of
such accounts payable on the Books and Records as of such date (the “January 23, 2006 Payables Schedule”); 
  
 (2) a listing of certain accounts receivable of the Business (“Transferred Receivables”) as of January 23, 2006 and the
carrying value of such accounts receivable on the Books and Records as of such date (the “January 23, 2006 Receivables Schedule”), the aggregate carrying value of which is $6,000,000; and 
  

 4 

 (3) a listing of all of the inventory of the Business included in the Assets
(“Inventory”) and the carrying value of such inventory on the Books and Records as of such date (the “January 23, 2006 Inventory Schedule”). 
  
 (ii) January 23, 2006 Net Working Capital Value. Based on the January 23, 2006
Working Capital Schedules, the Net Working Capital Value as of January 23, 2006 is $9,300,000 (“January 23, 2006 Net Working Capital Value”). 
  
 For purposes of this Agreement, “Net Working Capital Value” as of a specified date shall mean the carrying value of Transferred Receivables,
plus the net carrying value of Inventory, plus the carrying value of the portion of the Prepaids prorated to Seller Group pursuant to Section 3(e) hereof, minus the carrying value of Payables, in each case on the Books and
Records as of such date. 
  
 (iii)
Deliverables at Closing. At the Initial Closing, Seller Group will deliver to Purchaser: 
  
 (1) schedules listing each of the following and their respective carrying value on the Books and Records, dated as of the business day
immediately preceding the Initial Closing Date (collectively, the “Closing Working Capital Schedules”): (A) the Transferred Receivables (the “Closing Receivables Schedule”), (B) Inventory (the “Closing Inventory
Schedule”), and (C) Accounts Payable (the “Closing Payables Schedule”); and 
  
 (2) a statement (the “Closing Net Working Capital Statement”) showing its calculation of Net Working Capital Value as of the
Initial Closing Date (“Closing Net Working Capital”). 
  
 (iv) Purchaser’s Audit of Schedules. For thirty (30) calendar days following the Initial Closing, Seller Group shall cooperate with Purchaser in connection with any audit of such Closing
Working Capital Schedules conducted by Purchaser (in its sole discretion and at its own expense) and shall respond to Purchaser’s reasonable requests for information in connection with such audit. In addition, prior to the Initial Closing,
Purchaser may (in its sole discretion and at its own expense) retain an audit firm to conduct an audit of the January 23, 2006 Working Capital Schedules and Seller Group shall cooperate with any reasonable requests for information and documents
in connection with such audit. 
  
 (v)
Dispute Resolution. 
  
 (1) If
Purchaser desires to dispute any of the Closing Working Capital Schedules or the calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital, Purchaser shall notify Seller Group within thirty (30) calendar days after the Initial Closing. If Purchaser does
not so dispute any such item within such 30 day period, then the Closing Net Working Capital Statement shall be deemed final and conclusive (and shall in such case be deemed the “Final Closing Net Working Capital Statement”). 

 
 (2) In the event of a dispute as contemplated under the
preceding paragraph, Purchaser and Seller Group shall first use their diligent good faith efforts to resolve such dispute between themselves. If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute within ten (10) calendar days after delivery of the
dispute notice, then any remaining items in dispute 

  

 5 

 
shall be submitted to an agreed upon nationally recognized accounting firm, whose resolution of such items shall be final and conclusive. The Closing Net
Working Capital Statement, as modified in accordance with such a resolution of disputed items, shall be deemed final and conclusive (and shall in such case be deemed the “Final Closing Net Working Capital Statement”). 
  
 (vi) Adjustments to Purchase Price. Based on
the Closing Net Working Capital Value set forth in the Final Closing Net Working Capital Statement, the Purchase Price will be increased or decreased dollar for dollar as follows (as so adjusted, the “Closing-Adjusted Purchase Price”):

  
 (1) if the Closing Net Working Capital Value
is more than the January 23, 2006 Net Working Capital Value, the Purchase Price will be increased by the amount that the Initial Closing Net Working Capital exceeds the January 23, 2006 Net Working Capital Value; 
  
 (2) if the Closing Net Working Capital Value is less than
the January 23, 2006 Net Working Capital Value, the Purchase Price will be decreased by the amount that the Closing Net Working Capital is less than the January 23, 2006 Net Working Capital Value; 
  
 (3) if the Closing Net Working Capital Value is equal to
the January 23, 2006 Net Working Capital Value, the Purchase Price will not be adjusted. 
  
 (vii) Payment of Any Adjusted Amount. Purchaser or Seller Group, as applicable, shall within ten (10) business days
following determination of the Final Closing Net Working Capital Statement, wire transfer funds in the amount of the difference between the Purchase Price and the Closing-Adjusted Purchase Price. 
  
 (e) Credits and Prorations. Seller Group and
Purchaser shall prorate all Prepaids, including any payments due or advanced under any lease as of the Initial Closing Date. With respect to any amounts that have not yet been billed or otherwise determined, Seller Group and Purchaser shall prorate
such amounts based on the most recent ascertainable bill, based on when such Prepaids and other assessments are due and payable. Prepaids that are prorated to Seller Group shall be included in the calculation of Net Working Capital Value for
purposes of Section 3(d) hereof, to the extent that such Prepaids are transferred to Purchaser. “Prepaids” as used in this Agreement shall mean, subject to proration as described in this paragraph, all prepaid expenses, security
deposits, advances made by Seller Group and all other prepaid items, credits and discounts for or toward the purchase of goods, services and Inventory relating to the Business, which have not as of the Initial Closing Date been received in full by
the Business. 
  
 4. Closings. 
  
 (a) Initial Closing. Subject to the satisfaction or
waiver of all conditions of the Initial Closing set forth in this Agreement, the consummation of the purchase and sale of the Assets (other than the Assets that relate to the operation of the Business in China (the “China Assets”)) (the
“Initial Closing”) shall take place on February 28, 2006 at 10:00 a.m. (Pacific Time) at the offices of Hopkins & Carley, A Professional Corporation, 70 S. First Street, 2nd Floor, San Jose, California 95113 or at such other time and place as Seller Group and Purchaser 

  

 6 

 
may agree in writing; provided, however, that if any of the conditions to the Initial Closing has not been satisfied or waived by such date
(other than a condition related to an action contemplated to occur at the Initial Closing), the Initial Closing shall occur on such later date as the parties shall agree upon but in no event later than three business days after satisfaction or
waiver of all of the closing conditions (such date of the Initial Closing, the “Initial Closing Date”). At the Initial Closing, Seller Group and Purchaser shall deliver the documents and take the actions referred to in Section 12
hereof. 
  
 (b) China Closing. The
consummation of the purchase and sale of the China Assets (the “China Closing”) shall take place on the date that is the six month anniversary of the Initial Closing at 10:00 a.m. (Pacific Time) at the offices of Hopkins & Carley,
A Professional Corporation, 70 S. First Street, 2nd Floor, San Jose, California 95113 or at such other time and
place as Seller Group and Purchaser may agree in writing (such date of the China Closing, the “China Closing Date”). At the China Closing, Seller Group shall assign all of its right, title and interest in and to the China Assets. Purchaser
and Seller Group agree to execute and/or cause to be delivered to each other party hereto such instruments and other documents, and will take such other actions, as such other party may reasonably request (prior to, at or after the China Closing)
for the purpose of carrying out or evidencing the transfer of the China Assets as contemplated hereunder. 
  
 5. Representations and Warranties of Seller Group. Except as set forth on any of the Schedules to this Section 5 (which, together with the
Schedules to Section 7, are collectively referred to as the “Disclosure Schedule”), it being agreed that an item included on a particular section of the Disclosure Schedule referenced in any section or subsection of Section 5 or
Section 7 shall be deemed to relate to each other section or subsection of Section 5 or Section 7 to the extent such relationship is reasonably apparent from the face of such disclosure), the members of Seller Group hereby jointly and
severally represent and warrant to Purchaser: 
  
 (a) Organization and Authority.

Seller Group, Interconnect has no direct or indirect equity ownership in any corporation, limited liability company, partnership or other business entity that is involved in the Business.

 (ii) Each member of Seller Group has the entity power to own its property and assets and to carry on its
businesses as now being conducted. Each member of Seller Group has full entity power and authority to enter into this Agreement and any agreements contemplated hereby to which it is a party and to carry out the transactions contemplated by this

or thereto: (i) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of each member of Seller Group, (ii) will not result in any conflict with, or breach or violation of, or default under, (A) the articles of
incorporation or bylaws (or equivalent instruments) of any member of Seller Group or (B) any judgment, order, decree, mortgage, agreement, deed of trust, indenture or other instrument to which such member of Seller Group is a party or by which
it is bound, or any foreign, federal, state or local statute or regulation applicable to such member of Seller Group, and (iii) will not result in the creation of any lien on any of the Assets, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii),

such unpaid Transferred Receivables for an amount equal to their carrying value. Such assignment and purchase shall occur within 30 days after the earlier of receipt by K&S of such notice or completion by K&S of an audit of the Transferred
Receivables confirming the amount of unpaid Transferred Receivables, which K&S may conduct, and Purchaser agrees to cooperate in such audit, within the 30 day period after receipt by K&S of such notice. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, K&S may collect any accounts receivable assigned to it.

 (a) Warranty Services. From and after the Initial Closing, Purchaser shall provide such services on behalf of Seller Group as may be necessary to cover any warranty of Seller Group identified on Schedule
5(s) attached hereto for any services provided or goods sold by Seller Group prior to the Initial Closing (but Purchaser shall not be responsible for any breach of any such warranties by Seller Group prior to the Initial Closing). Seller Group
agrees to compensate Purchaser for its direct costs for providing such services on Seller Group’s behalf to the extent the direct costs of providing such services exceed $50,000 in aggregate. Seller Group shall have the right to conduct
periodic audits of Purchaser’s records following the Initial Closing, and Purchaser shall cooperate with Seller Group’s reasonable requests in connection with any such audit.

 19 

 
to destroy all or any portion of the Retained Records, Purchaser will provide Seller Group with (i) 60 days prior written notice of its intent to
destroy the Retained Records and (ii) the option, exercisable within the 60-day notice period, to take possession of the Retained Records for Seller Group’s sole benefit. To the extent Purchaser retains possession of the Retained Records,
at Seller Group’s expense, Purchaser will deliver copies of any of the Retained Records to Seller Group in the event Seller Group requests copies for purposes of responding to any litigation, pre-litigation, or administrative request or demand.

 (i) Purchaser shall offer, and Seller Group hereby consents
to Purchaser offering, employment to employees, consultants, salespersons or other personnel of Seller Group listed on Schedule 13(a)(i) hereto (collectively, the “Transferred Employees”). Seller Group has not, and shall not,
make any promise, representation or undertaking on behalf of Purchaser to any of its employees; provided, however, that to the extent that Purchaser desires to add or remove any employees from the list set forth on Schedule

vacation and sick days that the Transferred Employee had accrued while an employee of Seller Group through the date of Closing. 
  
 (ii) If, at any time within twelve months of the Initial Closing Date, Purchaser or any of its affiliates makes an offer of employment to,
and it is accepted by, any employee of Seller Group as the date of this Agreement who is not a Transferred Employee, Purchaser shall promptly reimburse Seller Group for any and all retention bonus, severance and termination payments that Seller
Group made to such employee as a result of the action taken in contemplation of this Agreement (other than payments in respect of accrued vacation and sick days). For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 13(b)(ii) shall not limit or modify the
restrictions and covenants set forth in Section 13(c) hereof or remedies available to K&S or Seller Group in connection with a breach thereof. 
  
 (iii) Purchaser and Seller shall each pay one-half of the retention bonus that is paid to the manufacturing employees of Chinese Sub to
induce them to continue providing services during the term of the Manufacturing Services Agreement, in an amount not to exceed $50,000 by either party or $100,000 together. 
  
 (b) Nonsolicitation. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Seller Group, for a period commencing
on the date hereof and ending on August 1, 2006, SV Parent and Purchaser shall not, and shall not permit their affiliates to, call upon any person who was, as of December 31, 2005, an employee of K&S, Seller Group, or any of their
respective affiliates, other than Transferred Employees, for the purpose or with the intent of soliciting such individual to the employ of SV Parent, Purchaser or any of their affiliates and shall not employ any such person, regardless of any
changes in the individual’s employment status since December 31, 2005. 
  
 (c) Noncompetition. 
  
 (i) For a period of three years after the Initial Closing, K&S and Seller Group shall not, and shall cause their respective
subsidiaries not to, engage, directly or indirectly, 

  

 23 

 
including as an owner, member, manager, partner, shareholder, advisor or consultant, in any business that competes anywhere in the world with the Business as
conducted on the Initial Closing Date (“Restricted Wafer Business”). The foregoing shall not limit or otherwise restrict (x) any acquisition by K&S or its subsidiaries of any Person even if such Person is engaged in the Restricted
Wafer Business so long as the revenue of the Restricted Wafer Business does not constitute more than 10% of the revenues of such Person, or if the Restricted Wafer Business does constitute more than 10% of such revenues, K&S disposes of such
Restricted Wafer Business within 9 months of the acquisition, or (y) the sale of a controlling interest in K&S or any of its assets to any Person engaged in the Restricted Wafer Business. 
  
 (ii) For a period of three years after the Initial Closing,
Purchaser shall not, and Purchaser shall cause its subsidiaries not to, engage, directly or indirectly, including as an owner, member, manager, partner, shareholder, advisor or consultant, in the design, manufacture, servicing or marketing of
capital equipment or packaging materials used to assemble semiconductor devices (“Restricted K&S Business”). The foregoing shall not limit or otherwise restrict (x) any acquisition by Purchaser or its subsidiaries of any Person
even if such Person is engaged in the Restricted K&S Business so long as the revenue of the Restricted K&S Business does not constitute more than 10% of the revenues of such Person, or if the Restricted K&S Business does constitute more
than 10% of such revenues, Purchaser disposes of such Restricted K&S Business within 9 months of the acquisition, or (y) the sale of a controlling interest in Purchaser or any of its assets to any Person engaged in the Restricted K&S
Business. 
  
 (d) If any provision contained in
Section 13(b) or (c) shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of such paragraph (b) or (c) of this
Section 13 and such paragraph shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained therein. It is the intention of the parties that if any of the restrictions or covenants contained therein is held
to cover a geographic area or to be for a length of time that is not permitted by applicable law, or in any way construed to be too broad or to any extent invalid, such provision shall not be construed to be null, void and of no effect, but to the
extent such provision would be valid or enforceable under applicable law, a court of competent jurisdiction shall construe and interpret or reform paragraph (b) and/or (c), as applicable, of this Section 13 to provide for a covenant having
the maximum enforceable geographic area, time period and other provisions (not greater than those contained herein) as shall be valid and enforceable under such applicable law. Seller Group and Purchaser acknowledge that the other could be
irreparably harmed by any breach of Section 13(b) and/or (c) and that there would be no adequate remedy at law or in damages to compensate Purchaser or Seller Group, as applicable, for any such breach. Seller Group and Purchaser
shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief requiring specific performance by the other party in respect of Section 13(b) and (c). 
  
 (e) Post-Closing Collection of Accounts Receivable. 
  
 (1) If any member of Seller Group receives any payment in respect of any accounts receivable included in
the Assets after the Initial Closing it shall promptly remit such funds to Purchaser. 
  

 24 

 (2) If Purchaser or any of its affiliates receives any payment in respect of any account
receivable of Seller Group not included in the Assets after the Initial Closing, Purchaser shall promptly remit such funds to K&S. 
  
 (3) In furtherance of the foregoing, if any party receives a payment from a third party that, pursuant to the terms hereof, should have
been paid to another party hereto, the party who receives the payment agrees to hold in trust and promptly remit such payment to the party entitled thereto. If either party receives a payment from a customer that cannot be identified to a specific
invoice or obligation, the recipient shall, if reasonable under the circumstances, inquire of the customer as to the intended application thereof and, lacking a response, the payment shall be applied to the oldest outstanding undisputed invoice
relating to the payor. 
  
 (f) Certain Payroll
Tax Matters. Seller Group and Purchaser shall use the “alternate” procedure for predecessors and successors, provided in Section 5 of Revenue Procedure 2004-53, 2004-2 C.B. 320, with respect to filing and furnishing Internal
Revenue Service Forms W-2, W-3 and 941 for the calendar year of the Initial Closing in respect of Transferred Employees in the United States who accept offers of employment. In accordance with such procedure: 
  
 (1) Seller Group and Purchaser shall report on a
“predecessor-successor” basis as set forth therein solely for the purpose of tax reporting under this Section 13(f); 
  
 (2) Seller Group shall be relieved from furnishing Forms W-2 to such Transferred Employees for the period from January 1 of such
calendar year to the day of the Initial Closing; and 
  
 (3) Purchaser shall assume the obligations of Seller Group to furnish such forms to such employees for the full such calendar year and Seller Group shall provide to Purchaser all requisite information relating to such obligation for the
period up to the Initial Closing Date. 
  
 For clarification, any
reference to predecessors and successors in this Section 13(f) is solely for the tax reporting obligations set forth in this Section and has no legal effect otherwise. 
  
 (g) Investigation by Purchaser. All of Seller Group’s and K&S’ representations,
warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein shall remain effective in accordance with their terms to the extent provided in Section 14 hereof notwithstanding any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of Purchaser or of any
information or facts discovered by or on behalf of Purchaser in connection with such investigation. 
  

 25 

 14. Survival and Indemnification. 
  
 (a) Survival. The representations and warranties of Seller Group in Sections 5(a)(i)(A), 5(a)(ii),
5(b)(i), 5(b)(ii)(A) and the first sentence of Section 5(i), of K&S in Section 7(b)(i) and of Purchaser in Section 6(b)(i) shall survive indefinitely following the Initial Closing, and the representations and warranties of Seller
Group in the last sentence of Section 5(g) and the last sentence of Section 5(h) shall survive for 30 calendar days following the Initial Closing and no claim in respect of a breach of any such representations and warranties may be made
after the date that is 30 calendar days following the Initial Closing. All other representations and warranties hereunder of the parties to this Agreement shall not survive the Initial Closing and no claim in respect of a breach of any such
representations and warranties may be made following the Initial Closing. 
  
 (b) Indemnification. 
  
 (i) Seller Group and K&S shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser against all losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs)
(collectively, “Losses”) resulting or arising from: 
  
 (1) any breach of any representation or warranty in (A) Section 5(a)(i)(A), 5(a)(ii), 5(b)(i), Section 5(b)(ii)(A) or and Section 7(b)(i) or (B) the last sentence in Section 5(g), the
last sentence in Section 5(h) or the first sentence of Section 5(i); 
  
 (2) the failure of Seller Group or K&S to perform or comply with any covenant or obligation of Seller Group or K&S hereunder; and

  
 (3) any and all claims brought against
Purchaser by any third person, entity or governmental authority, including without limitation claims for unpaid taxes, interest and/or penalties, product liability claims, claims for infringement of Proprietary Rights, litigation, environmental
claims or claims of failure to comply with applicable laws, statutes, regulations or orders, to the extent such claims relate to the conduct by Seller Group of the Business prior to the Initial Closing, except to the extent such Losses are Assumed
Liabilities and except that Seller Group and K&S shall have no obligation to indemnify, defend or hold harmless Purchaser in respect to any claim relating to AVT. “AVT” (Advanced Vertical Test) refers to Seller Group’s programs
and proposed products for improved technology for wafer testing. Such programs include the AVT Memory Program, the AVT Area Array Program, and any other programs and technology related to such improvements in wafer testing. 
  
 (ii) Each Purchaser entity shall jointly and severally
indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller Group and K&S against all Losses resulting or arising from: 
  
 (1) any breach of any representation or warranty in Section 6(b)(i); 
  
 (2) the failure of Purchaser to perform or comply with any covenant or obligation of Purchaser hereunder;

  
 (3) any and all claims brought by any third
person, entity or governmental authority, including without limitation claims for unpaid taxes, interest and/or 

  

 26 

 
penalties, product liability claims, claims for infringement of Proprietary Rights, litigation, environmental claims or claims for failure to comply with
applicable laws, statutes, regulations or orders, to the extent such claims relate to the conduct by Purchaser and its affiliates of the Business after the Initial Closing; and 
  
 (4) any and all claims brought by any third person, entity or governmental authority relating to AVT.

  
 (iii) Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the foregoing indemnities of Seller Group and K&S, on the one hand, and of Purchaser, on the other hand, shall not apply unless the party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnitee”) shall, with reasonable
promptness after learning of information which will lead to a claim for indemnification hereunder, notify the other party(ies) (the “Indemnitor”) of the basis for such claim and provide Indemnitor with copies of any claims or other
documents received and shall otherwise make available to the Indemnitor all relevant information material to the defense of any claim against the Indemnitee which shall serve as the basis for a claim by the Indemnitee pursuant to the terms hereof.
The Indemnitor shall have the right to control the defense of such claim, unless the Indemnitor fails within a reasonable time after notice to take action to defend the same. The Indemnitee shall have the election to join in the defense of any such
claim at its own cost, but such claims shall be subject to the control of the Indemnitor, and the Indemnitee shall not settle or compromise the same unless it shall first obtain the written consent of the Indemnitor. 
  
 (iv) The amount of any and all Losses for which
indemnification is provided pursuant to this Section 14 shall be (1) reduced by any actual, incremental tax benefit recognized by the Indemnitee in the taxable year in which such indemnification is payable, or in an earlier taxable year,
by reason of the circumstances or events giving rise to such Losses and (2) increased by any actual, incremental tax cost or reduction in such tax benefit by reason of the accrual of the right to, or the receipt of, the indemnification
payment, in any such taxable year or, in the case of any such tax costs or reductions in tax benefits projected for future taxable years, the present value of such projected costs or reductions (net of any additional tax benefits projected for such
taxable years), using the applicable Federal short-term rate in effect as of the date on which such indemnification is payable and assuming the Indemnitee’s effective, incremental tax rate applicable in computing such costs, reductions or
benefits in such future taxable years equals the effective, incremental tax rate actually applicable in respect of the tax benefit under clause (1) of this paragraph, and shall be net of any amounts of any insurance proceeds, indemnification
payments, contribution payments or reimbursements actually received by the Indemnitee with respect to such Losses or any of the circumstances giving rise thereto. 
  
 (v) Limitation on Liability. 
  
 (1) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Seller Group nor K&S shall be required to indemnify
Purchaser for breach of any representation or warranty as provided under Section 14(b)(i)(1)(B) (x) unless written notice thereof has been given by Purchaser to Seller Group within the applicable survival period for the representation or
warranty alleged to have been breached and (y) until the aggregate dollar amount of Losses resulting or arising from any and all such breaches exceeds Two Hundred Thousand United States Dollars (US$200,000), at which point Seller Group and
K&S shall jointly and severally indemnify 

  

 27 

 
Purchaser for all Losses in excess of Two Hundred Thousand United States Dollars (US$200,000), except that in no event will Seller Group or K&S, jointly
or severally, have aggregate liability under Section 14(b)(i)(1)(B) in excess of One Million United States Dollars (US$1,000,000). 
  
 (2) NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY PARTY OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES BE LIABLE
FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, COLLATERAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES IN CONNECTION WITH ANY CLAIMS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, OR INJURIES ARISING OUT OF THE CONDUCT OF SUCH PARTY PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT. 
  
 (vi) Exclusive Remedy; Mitigation. Except for the
remedy of specific performance, which any party may seek to utilize in the case of a breach by another party of its obligations hereunder, each of K&S, each member of Seller Group and each Purchaser entity acknowledge and agree that, following
the Initial Closing, the indemnification provisions of Sections 14 (b) (i) and (ii) shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the parties hereto for any breach of the representations or warranties in this Agreement that survive the
Initial Closing and for any failure to perform or comply with any covenants or agreements contained herein. In furtherance of, and subject to, the foregoing, each party hereto hereby waives from and after the Initial Closing, any and all rights,
claims and causes of action it may have against the Indemnitor arising under or based upon any applicable law or otherwise, except for the remedies specifically provided in this Agreement. In addition, each of the parties hereto shall (x) take
such commercially reasonable actions as may be available to mitigate any Losses for which such party would otherwise be entitled to indemnification hereunder, and (y) not intentionally take any action that it is not legally required to take if
such action would result in Losses for which it will seek indemnification hereunder.

 (2) the Initial Closing shall not have occurred by
March 28, 2006 unless the failure of the Initial Closing to occur is the result of the failure on the part of K&S or Seller Group to perform any of their obligations or satisfy any conditions that are within their control hereunder.

 (i) K&S and Seller Group shall pay to Purchaser Three
Hundred Thousand United States Dollars (US$300,000) (the “Breakup Fee”) in cash within thirty (30) days of March 28, 2006 if (A) the Board of Directors, or applicable management, of any of Seller Group or K&S have not

damage on account of fire, earthquake, flood, accident, condemnation, act of war, civil commotion, or any other cause or event beyond the reasonable power and control of Seller Group (whether or not similar to the foregoing), unless such losses and
damages would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, Purchaser shall have the right, at its election, to either (a) complete the acquisition and collect or be transferred all insurance proceeds or benefits received by or
to which Seller Group would otherwise be entitled on account of such loss or damage to any of the 

  

 29

 (e) Expenses; Taxes. Subject to the indemnification
provided herein, each of the parties shall bear its own expenses in connection with this Agreement and the transactions to effectuate this Agreement, including, without limitation, attorneys’ and accountants’ fees. If the Initial Closing
or China Closing, as applicable, occurs, then any and all real and/or personal property taxes imposed by any state or local taxing authority on any of the Assets for or with respect to a tax period straddling the period before and after the Initial

parties shall cooperate with one another after the Initial Closing or China Closing, as applicable, to file any and all returns or the like required by the applicable taxing authority to be filed and to pay its portion of the taxes so due. Any other
applicable transfer taxes or other taxes or charges arising from or out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be borne one-half by Seller Group and one-half by Purchaser, except that Seller Group shall pay the custom duties tax on
the transfer to Purchaser of the tangible personal property of the Chinese Sub included in the Assets. 
  
 (f) Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the schedules and exhibits attached hereto, contains the entire agreement and
understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. 
  
 (g) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California
applicable to agreements made and to be performed in the State of California (and Federal law, to the extent applicable). 
  
 (h) Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning
or interpretation of this Agreement. 
  
 (i)
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or more counterparts, including counterparts transmitted by facsimile or electronic transmission, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall
constitute but one and the same instrument. 
  
 (j) Parties in Interests. Nothing contained in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any person or entity, other than the parties hereto and their 

  

 31 

 
permitted assignees, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement. Prior to the Initial Closing, no assignment of this Agreement or any rights
hereunder by any party shall be given any effect without the prior written consent of the other party. Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns (including any successors or assigns in connection with any dissolution and winding up of such party). 
  
 (k) Dispute Resolution. Any and all disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement that are not
resolved by mutual agreement of the parties hereto will be submitted to final and binding arbitration before JAMS/ENDISPUTE, or its successor. Any party may commence the arbitration process called for in this Agreement by filing a written demand for
arbitration with JAMS/ENDISPUTE, with a copy to the other party or parties, as applicable. The arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and JAMS/ENDISPUTE’s Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures
(“Arbitration Rules”) in effect at the time of filing of the demand for arbitration, and California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1282, et. seq. (the “Code of Civil Procedure”), as amended. Specifically,
Section 1283.05 of the Code of Civil Procedure shall govern the rights of discovery. To the extent there exists an inconsistency between this Agreement, the Arbitration Rules and the Code of Civil Procedure, the Agreement, the Code of Civil
Procedure and then the Arbitration Rules will apply on such order. The parties herein will cooperate with JAMS/ENDISPUTE and with one another in selecting an arbitrator from JAMS/ENDISPUTE’s panel of neutrals, and in scheduling the arbitration
proceedings. The parties herein covenant that they shall participate in the arbitration in good faith, and that they shall initially share equally in its costs, unless otherwise required by law; provided, however, the prevailing party is entitled to
reimbursement of all attorneys’ fees, expenses, and costs of arbitration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in the Arbitration Rules, the arbitrator will issue written findings of fact and conclusions of law in accordance with
California law. All findings of fact will be final and non-appealable, except as provided by the Arbitration Rules. Findings of law will be appealable to a court of competent jurisdiction, as limited by this Agreement. The provisions of this Section
may be enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction, as limited by this Agreement, and the prevailing party or parties in such arbitration will be entitled to an award of all costs, fees, expenses, including attorneys’ fees, to be paid by
the non-prevailing party or parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a party may seek injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction, as limited by this Agreement, without seeking arbitration. Any arbitration hereunder shall take place in
Chicago, Illinois. 
  
 (l) Attorneys’
Fees. If any party hereto brings an arbitration action pertaining to or arising out of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the losing party all reasonable costs and expenses of the arbitration, including
reasonable attorneys’ and arbitrator fees and costs, in such amounts as may be determined in the discretion of the arbitrator having jurisdiction of such action. 
  
 (m) Knowledge of Seller Group. For purposes hereof, the phrase “to Seller Group’s
knowledge” or any variation thereof shall mean the actual knowledge, upon reasonable inquiry, of: Charles Salmons, Maurice E. Carson and David J. Anderson. 
  
 (n) Exclusive Dealing. From the date hereof and through and until the Initial Closing or a
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 15, neither Seller Group nor any 

  

 32 

 
of its directors, officers, employees, representatives or agents, will, directly or indirectly, solicit or initiate any discussions or negotiations with, or
participate in any negotiations with or provide any information to or otherwise cooperate in any other way with, any corporation, partnership, person or other entity or group (other than Purchaser) concerning any sale of the Assets or any sale of
the Business or any similar transaction involving control thereof. 
  
 (o) Confidentiality and Publicity. All information acquired by any party or its respective agents or representatives of the business of the other party hereto shall be held in the strictest confidence (except
if such information is in the public domain or readily obtainable from independent sources or required by law to be disclosed) and if the transactions contemplated hereby are not consummated, no party shall use or disclose any such information to
any third parties (except to the extent publicly available or readily obtainable from independent sources or required by law to be disclosed). The timing and text of announcements or statements pertaining to the subject matter of this Agreement or
the transactions contemplated herein will be mutually agreed to by Seller Group and Purchaser, except that any party hereto may make any l disclosure it is legally required to make under applicable securities laws without approval of the other
party. 
  
 (p) No Electronic Writings. No
electronic record or electronic signature (other than facsimile) shall be deemed to be a writing so as to satisfy any requirement under this Agreement that any agreement, waiver, amendment, notice or other instrument delivered by a party to this
Agreement under or pursuant hereto be in writing.

reasonably request (prior to, at or after the Initial Closing and prior to, at or after the China Closing) for the purpose of carrying out or evidencing any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other agreements or documents
related hereto.
