Registration ceases to be effective for any reason as a result of the
issuance of a stop order by the Commission at any time during the
Effective Period, EMCORE shall use its best efforts to obtain the
prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness
thereof.

(c)    EMCORE shall supplement and amend the Shelf
Registration if required by the rules, regulations or instructions
applicable to the registration form used by EMCORE for such Shelf
Registration, if required by the Securities Act or if reasonably
requested by the Holders of the Registrable Securities covered by such
Registration Statement.

(d)    In the event (A) of the
happening of any event of the kind described in Section 2.3(i) hereof
or (B) that, in the reasonable judgment of EMCORE, it becomes advisable
to suspend use of the Prospectus for a discrete period of time due to
pending material corporate developments or similar material information
that have not yet been publicly disclosed and as to which EMCORE
reasonably believes public disclosure is likely to be detrimental to
EMCORE, EMCORE shall deliver a certificate in writing, signed by an
authorized executive officer of EMCORE, to the Holders to the effect of
the foregoing and, upon such notice, EMCORE may suspend use of the
Shelf Registration Statement for a period of up to sixty (60) days
until a supplemented or amended prospectus is filed with the
Commission, or until the Holders are advised in writing by EMCORE that
the prospectus contained in the Shelf Registration Statement may be
used, and the Holders have received copies of any additional or
supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by
reference in such prospectus. EMCORE will use its best efforts to
ensure that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, and the use of
the Shelf Registration Statement will commence, as soon as reasonably
practicable and, in the case of a pending development or event referred
to in this Section, as soon as the earlier of (x) public disclosure of
such pending material corporate development or similar material event
or (y) the date upon which, in the reasonable judgment of EMCORE,
public disclosure of such material corporate development or similar
material event would not be reasonably likely to be detrimental to
EMCORE. The Effectiveness Period shall be extended by the number of
days, on a cumulative basis, that use of the Shelf Registration
Statement is suspended pursuant to this Section
2.1(d).

2.2    Incidental
Registration.    (a)    If, at any time after the date hereof
and prior to termination of the registration rights set forth herein
pursuant to Section 2.6, EMCORE proposes to register any 

2

Table of Contents

equity securities under the Securities Act
(other than pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any
successor form) relating solely to employee benefit plans or Form S-4
(or any successor form) relating to a merger or similar business
combination transaction), either for EMCORE’s account or for the
account of others, EMCORE shall, not less than fifteen (15) nor more
than ninety (90) days prior to the proposed date of filing of a
registration statement under the Securities Act, give written notice to
all Holders of its intention to do so. Upon the written request of any
Holder given within ten (10) days after transmittal by EMCORE of such
notice, EMCORE will use its reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable
Securities requested to be registered to be so registered under the
Securities Act (and qualified under blue sky or similar laws). A
request pursuant to this Section 2.1(a) shall state the number of
Registrable Securities requested to be registered and the intended
method of disposition thereof. Subject to Section 2.6, the rights
granted in this Section 2.1(a) shall apply in each case where EMCORE
proposes to register equity securities regardless of whether such
rights may have been exercised previously.

(b)    Nothing in
this Agreement shall be deemed to require EMCORE to proceed with any
registration of its securities pursuant to Section 2.1 after giving the
notice provided in paragraph (a) above.

2.3    
Registration Procedures.    If and whenever EMCORE is
required by the provisions of this Article II to use its reasonable
efforts to effect the registration of any securities under the
Securities Act, EMCORE will within the time periods provided herein, at
its expense:

(a)    prepare and file with
the Commission a registration statement with respect to such securities
and use its reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to
become and remain effective for, in the case of a Shelf Registration,
the Effective Period;

(b)    prepare and
file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such
registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith
as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective and
to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the
sale or other disposition of all securities covered by such
registration statement until the earlier of such time as all of such
securities have been disposed of and, if applicable, the end of the
Effective Period;

(c)    furnish to each
seller and to each duly authorized underwriter of each seller such
number of authorized copies of a prospectus, including copies of a
preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the
Securities Act, and such other documents as such seller or underwriter
may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public sale or other
disposition of the securities owned by such
seller;

(d)    use its reasonable efforts
to register or qualify the securities covered by such registration
statement under such securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions
as each seller shall reasonably request, and do any and all other acts
and things which may be necessary under such securities or blue sky
laws to enable such seller to consummate the public sale or other
disposition in such jurisdictions of the securities to be sold by such
seller, except that EMCORE shall not for any such purpose be required
to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction wherein it is not
qualified or to file any general consent to service of process in any
such jurisdiction;

(e)    before filing
the registration statement or prospectus or amendments or supplements
thereto or any other documents related thereto, furnish to counsel
selected by the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such
registration statement copies of all such documents proposed to be
filed;

(f)    furnish, at the request of
any Holder of Registrable Securities, (1) to the underwriters, on the
date that such Holder’s of Registrable Securities are delivered
to the underwriters for sale pursuant to such registration, an opinion
of the counsel representing EMCORE for the purposes of such
registration addressed to such underwriters and to such Holder of
Registrable Securities, in such form and content as the underwriters
and such Holder of Registrable Securities may reasonably request, or
(2) if such securities are not being sold through underwriters, then to
the Holder of Registrable Securities, on the date that the registration
statement with respect to such 

3

Table of Contents

securities becomes effective, an opinion,
dated such date, of the counsel representing EMCORE for the purposes of
such registration in such form and content as such Holder of
Registrable Securities may reasonably request; and in the case of
clauses (1) and (2) above, a letter dated such date, from the
independent certified public accountants of EMCORE addressed to the
underwriters, if any, and if such securities are not being sold through
underwriters, then to the Holders of Registrable Securities and, if
such accountants refuse to deliver such letter to such Holders of
Registrable Securities, then to EMCORE, stating that they are
independent certified public accountants within the meaning of the
Securities Act and that, in the opinion of such accountants, the
financial statements and other financial data of EMCORE included in the
registration statement or the prospectus, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, comply as to form in all material respects with the
applicable accounting requirements of the Securities Act and covering
such other matters as are customarily covered in accountant’s
‘‘comfort’’ letters;

(g)    enter into customary agreements
(including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such
other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or
facilitate the disposition of such securities;

(h)    provide and cause to be maintained a
transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities covered by
such registration statement from and after a date not later than the
effective date of such registration
statement;

(i)    notify the Holders
included in such registration statement, at any time when a prospectus
relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act,
of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus
included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an
untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading or incomplete in the light of the circumstances
then existing and, at the request of such Holders, properly prepare and
furnish to such Holders a reasonable number of copies of a supplement
to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as
thereafter delivered to purchasers of such securities, such prospectus
shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading or incomplete in light of
the circumstances then existing;
and

(j)    cause all Registrable Securities
covered by such registration statement to be listed on each securities
exchange or automated quotation system on which the EMCORE Common Stock
is then listed;

2.4    Expenses.    The following
expenses incurred in effecting the registrations, qualifications and
compliance provided for in this Article II shall be paid by EMCORE: all
registration and filing fees (including all expenses incident to filing
with the Nasdaq National Market and any securities exchange), printing
expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for EMCORE, fees of
EMCORE’s independent auditors and accountants, expenses of any
regular or special audits incident to or required by any such
registration and expenses of complying with the securities or blue sky
laws of any jurisdictions pursuant to Section 2.3(d) hereof. EMCORE
shall not be responsible for, and the Holders of Registrable Securities
shall pay all underwriters’ discounts or commissions (with
respect to the shares to be sold by the Holders), and the fees and
expenses of Holders’ counsel.

2.5    Marketing
Restrictions.    If (i) any Holder of Registrable Securities
requests registration of Registrable Securities under Section 2.2, (ii)
the offering proposed to be made is to be an underwritten public
offering and (iii) the managing underwriters of such public offering
furnish a written opinion that the total amount of securities to be
included in such offering would exceed the maximum amount of securities
(as specified in such opinion) which can be marketed at a price
reasonably related to the then current market value of such securities
and without materially and adversely affecting such offering; then

(A)    in the event of an offering for the
account of EMCORE, the rights of EMCORE and the holders of Registrable
Securities and other securities having the right to include such
securities in such registration to participate in such offering shall
be in the following order of priority:

4

Table of Contents
First:    EMCORE shall
be entitled to participate in accordance with the number of securities
requested to be registered by EMCORE; and then

Second:    All holders of securities having the
right to include such securities in such registration shall be entitled
to participate pro rata among themselves in accordance with the number
of securities requested to be registered by each such holder, and

(B)    in the event of an offering for the
account of holders other than EMCORE, EMCORE and all holders of
securities having the right to include such securities in such
registration shall be entitled to participate pro rata among themselves
in accordance with the number of securities requested to be registered
by each such holder (or EMCORE).

2.6    Time Limitations;
Termination of Rights.    Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Article II, (a) all rights to registration shall
terminate as to any particular Registrable Securities when (i) such
Registrable Securities shall have been effectively registered under the
Securities Act and sold by the Holder thereof in accordance with such
registration or (ii) such Registrable Securities shall have been sold
in compliance with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, and
(b) all rights to registration under Section 2.2 shall terminate as to
any particular Registrable Securities when such Registrable Securities
may be sold without registration under the Securities Act or applicable
state law and without restriction as to the volume and timing of such
sales.

2.7    Compliance with Rule 144.    At the
request of any Holder who proposes to sell Registrable Securities in
compliance with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, assuming
that at such time the provisions of such Rule are applicable to such
Holder and, in the event such Holder is or could be deemed to be an
‘‘affiliate’’ of EMCORE within the meaning
of the Securities Act, and EMCORE is then required to file reports
under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, EMCORE shall (a)
forthwith furnish to such Holder a written statement as to its
compliance with the filing requirements of the Commission as set forth
in such Rule, as such Rule may be amended from time to time, and (b)
make such additional filings of reports with the Commission as will
enable the Holder to make sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to
such Rule. At all times during which this Agreement is effective,
EMCORE shall file with the Commission and, if applicable, The Nasdaq
Stock Market, Inc.
(‘‘Nasdaq’’), in a timely
manner, all reports and other documents required to be filed by EMCORE,
(i) with the Commission pursuant to the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act, and (ii) with Nasdaq pursuant to its rules and
regulations.

2.8    Indemnification by
EMCORE.    In the event of any registration under the Securities
Act of any Registrable Securities pursuant to this Article II, EMCORE
hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder disposing of
Registrable Securities, each underwriter, if any, engaged by the
Holders disposing of Registrable Securities, and each Person, if any,
who controls such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities,
joint or several, to which such Holder, controlling person or
participating person may become subject under the Securities Act or
otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact
contained in any registration statement under which the Registrable
Securities are registered under the Securities Act, in any preliminary
prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or in any amendment
or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission
or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, or any violation by EMCORE of the Securities Act relating
to such registration, and will reimburse each such Holder, controlling
person and participating person for any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending or
settling any such loss, claim, damage, liability or proceeding;
provided, however, that EMCORE will not be liable in any
case to any such Holder, controlling Person or participating Person to
the extent that any loss, claim, damage or liability results from any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission (a) made in such registration statement, preliminary or final
prospectus or amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in
conformity with information furnished or approved in writing to EMCORE
by such Holder or any other person who participates as an underwriter
for such Holder in the offering or sale of such securities, or (b) made
in a 

5

Table of Contents

preliminary prospectus, where the preliminary
prospectus or the final prospectus contained in the registration
statement shall have corrected such statement or omission prior to the
time of sale, as such term is used in Rule 159 of the Securities
Act.

2.9    Indemnification by
Holder.    (a)    As a condition to EMCORE’s obligation
under this Article II to effect any registration under the Securities
Act, each Holder hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless EMCORE,
each Person referred to in clause (1), (2) or (3) of Section 11(a) of
the Securities Act in respect of the registration statement, each other
Holder for whom Registrable Securities are to be registered and each
other Person, if any, who controls EMCORE within the meaning of Section
15 of the Securities Act, with respect to any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the
registration statement under which the Registrable Securities are to be
registered under the Securities Act, in any preliminary prospectus or
final prospectus contained therein or in any amendment or supplement
thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, which, in
each case, is made in or omitted from the registration statement,
preliminary or final prospectus or amendment or supplement in reliance
upon and in conformity with information furnished or approved, in
either case, in writing to EMCORE by such Holder; provided,
however, that the indemnification obligations of each such
Holder shall be limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder
from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such
registration.

(b)    At the request of the
managing underwriter in connection with any underwritten offering of
EMCORE’s securities, each Holder for whom Registrable Securities
are being registered shall enter into an indemnity agreement in
customary form with such
underwriter.

2.10    Contribution.     If the
indemnification provided for in Section 2.8 or 2.9 from the
indemnifying party is unavailable to an indemnified party hereunder, or
is insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party, in respect of
any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to
therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such
indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by
such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
the relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified parties in
connection with the actions which resulted in such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party
and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged
omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to
information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified
parties, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement
or omission; provided, that in no event will any Holder of
Registrable Securities be required to contribute an amount in excess of
the proceeds to such Holder from the sale of his or its Registrable
Securities included in that offering, except in the case of willful
fraud by such Holder. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified
party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or
other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection
with any investigation or proceeding.

The parties hereto agree
that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to
this Section 2.10 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any
other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable
considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. No
Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution
from any indemnifying party who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation.

2.11    Notification of and
Participation in Actions.    Promptly after receipt by an
indemnified party under this Article II of oral or written notice of a
claim or the commencement of any proceeding against it, such
indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made
against an indemnifying party under such Article, give written notice
to the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, but the failure
so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it of any

6

Table of Contents

liability that it may have to any indemnified
party except to the extent the indemnifying party demonstrates that it
is prejudiced thereby. In case any such proceeding shall be brought
against an indemnified party and it shall give notice to the
indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party
shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it
shall wish (unless the indemnifying party is also a party to such
proceeding and the indemnified party reasonably determines in good
faith that there may be legal defenses available to such indemnified
party that are different from or in addition to those available to such
indemnifying party or that representation of such indemnifying party
and any indemnified party by the same counsel would present a conflict
of interest) to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to such indemnified party and, after notice from the
indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to
assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable
to such indemnified party under such Article for any fees of other
counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such
proceeding, in each case, subsequently incurred by such indemnified
party in connection with the defense thereof. If an indemnifying party
assumes the defense of such proceeding, (a) no compromise or settlement
thereof may be effected by the indemnifying party without the
indemnified party’s reasonable consent unless (i) there is no
finding or admission of any violation of law or any violation of the
rights of any Person and no effect on any other claims that may be made
against the indemnified party and (ii) the sole relief provided is
monetary damages that are paid in full by the indemnifying party and
(b) the indemnifying party shall have no liability with respect to any
compromise or settlement thereof effected without its consent, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld. If notice is given to an
indemnifying party of the commencement of any proceeding and it does
not, within thirty (30) days after the indemnified party’s
notice is given, give notice to the indemnified party of its election
to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall be bound by
any determination made in such action or any compromise or settlement
thereof effected by the indemnified party. In no event shall the
indemnifying party be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one
counsel (in addition to local counsel) separate from its own counsel
for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action of
separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction
arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. All
indemnification obligations of the parties hereto shall survive any
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.6
hereof.

2.12    Underwriting Requirements.    In
the event of an underwritten offering of EMCORE’s securities,
each Holder for whom Registrable Securities are being registered
pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof shall, as a condition to inclusion of
such Registrable Securities in such registration, execute and deliver
to the underwriter(s) an underwriting agreement in customary form. The
underwriter(s) shall be selected by EMCORE or such other Persons, if
any, as shall have the right to the underwriter(s) pursuant to a
separate contractual arrangement with
EMCORE.

2.13    Market
‘‘Stand-Off’’ Agreement.    Each
Holder hereby agrees that, during the period of duration specified by
EMCORE and an underwriter of common stock or other securities of
EMCORE, following the effective date of a registration statement of
EMCORE filed under the Securities Act, if (but only if) such Holder
participates in such offering of common stock or other securities of
EMCORE pursuant to Section 2.2, it shall not, to the extent requested
by EMCORE and such underwriter, directly or indirectly sell, offer to
sell, contract to sell (including, without limitation, any short sale),
grant any option to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of (other
than to donees who agree to be similarly bound) any securities of
EMCORE held by it at any time during such period except Registrable
Securities included in such registration; provided, however, that such
market stand-off time period shall not exceed the shorter of (i) (180)
days and (ii) the shortest ‘‘lock-up’’
period applicable to any other securityholder participating in such
offering.

2.14    Furnish Information.    It shall
be a condition precedent to the obligations of EMCORE to take any
action pursuant to Article II that the Holders requesting registration
of Registrable Securities furnish to EMCORE such information regarding
them, the Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method
of disposition of such securities as EMCORE shall reasonably request
and as shall be required in connection with the action to be taken by
EMCORE.

communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be
given in the manner and with the effect provided in the Merger

case notices and communications shall be sent to the address (or such
facsimile number) specified by such
Holder.

4.3    Amendments.    The provisions of
this Agreement may be amended, modified or waived only by an agreement
in writing and any such waiver shall be effective only in the specific
