Form 3/CEP

 

AGREEMENT DATED 6 NOVEMBER 2009

 

BETWEEN:

 

(1)           ARCH REINSURANCE LTD. (“the Company”) whose offices
are at Wessex House, 3rd Floor, 45 Reid Street, Hamilton HM 12,
Bermuda;

 

AND

 

(2)           CITIBANK EUROPE PLC (“CEP”) whose offices and
registered address are at 1 North Wall Quay, I.F.S.C., Dublin 1, Ireland.

 

PREAMBLE

 

Subject to the Company’s satisfaction of the terms and conditions
contained in this Agreement, CEP agrees to establish letters of credit or
similar or equivalent acceptable instruments (each a “Credit” and collectively
the “Credits”) on behalf of the Company in favour of beneficiaries located in
the United States of America or elsewhere (the “Beneficiary” or “Beneficiaries”
as relevant). In furtherance of this Agreement, the parties have entered into (i) a
Pledge Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Pledge Agreement”) between
the Company and CEP and (ii) an Account Control Agreement, dated as of the
date hereof (the “Account Control Agreement”) among the Company, CEP and a
securities intermediary.  From time to
time, the parties may enter into additional security arrangements.

 

1.      AGREEMENT

 

It is agreed between us
in relation to each Credit that:-

 

1.1        In order to establish a Credit, the Company is
required to submit an application form to CEP (“the Application Form”).  The Application Form must (a) be in
such form as CEP is willing to accept for this purpose; Application Forms may,
subject to CEP’s agreement, be received via any electronic system(s) or
transmission arrangement(s); (b) be completed by or on behalf of the
Company in accordance with the terms of the Company’s banking mandate(s) or
other authorities lodged with CEP or in accordance with arrangement(s) made
with CEP from time to time; and (c) indicate therein the name of the
Beneficiary and the amount and term of the Credit required.  Upon receipt of an Application Form that
satisfies the above criteria, CEP shall establish on behalf of the Company an
irrevocable clean sight Credit (or such other form of Credit as may be required
by the Application Form relating thereto) available, in whole or in part,
by the Beneficiary’s sight draft (the Company hereby agreeing that CEP may
accept as a valid “sight draft” any written or electronic demand or other
request for payment under the Credit, even if such demand or other request is
not in the form of a negotiable instrument) on CEP or otherwise as may be
required by the terms of the Credit; provided, however, that:

 

2

 

(i)         the opening of any Credit hereunder
shall, in every instance, be at CEP’s option and nothing herein shall be
construed as obliging CEP to open any Credit; and

 

(ii)        prior to the establishment of any Credit
or in order to maintain a Credit the Company undertakes as follows:

 

(a)     forthwith at CEP’s request to deposit (a “Deposit”)
of Collateral (as such term is defined in the Pledge Agreement) pursuant to the
terms of the Pledge Agreement at an Approved Bank selected by the Company.  “Approved Bank” for the purposes of this
Clause 1.1(ii)(a) shall mean one or more of the following:- (i) Citibank,
N.A. at their branch at Citigroup Centre, Canada Square, Canary Wharf, London
E14 5LB; (ii) a bank approved by CEP and the Company, such approval not to
be unreasonably withheld; provided that the securities intermediary party to
the Account Control Agreement is hereby approved; or, (iii) such other
Citigroup branch or approved bank as CEP may designate and notify to the
Company, and in the case of an approved bank, approved by the Company, such
approval not to be unreasonably withheld; and

 

(b)    should a Deposit have been requested and
is made in an account not covered by the Account Control Agreement, to execute security
arrangements reasonably satisfactory to CEP and the Company in relation to the
accounts opened pursuant to Clause 1.1 (ii) (a) above.

 

1.2       Without prejudice to the generality of Clause 1.1 (i),
the opening of any Credit hereunder shall be dependent upon CEP being
satisfied, in its absolute discretion, that the collateral requirements of the
Pledge Agreement have been met and that the documentation required to be
executed under Clause 1.1 (ii) (b), if any, has been validly executed;

 

1.3        The Company undertakes to reimburse CEP, within two (2) Business
Days of  demand by CEP, the amount of any
and all drawings  (including, for the
avoidance of doubt, drawings presented electronically) under each Credit;

 

1.4        The Company undertakes to indemnify CEP, on demand,
for and against all actions, proceedings, losses, damages, charges, costs,
expenses, claims and demands which CEP may incur, pay or sustain in connection
with each Credit and/or this Agreement, howsoever arising (unless resulting
from CEP’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct);

 

1.5        The Company undertakes to pay CEP, on demand, such
fees and/or commissions of such amount(s) and/or at such rate(s) as
shall be separately agreed;

 

1.6        The Company hereby irrevocably authorises
CEP to make any payments and comply with any demands which may be claimed from
or made upon CEP in connection with any Credit without any reference to, or
further authority from, the Company but subject to confirmation that any documents
required to be delivered under such Credit have been delivered and that they
appear to substantially comply on their face with the requirements of such
Credit.  The Company hereby agrees that
it shall not be incumbent upon CEP to enquire or take notice of whether or not
any such payments or demands claimed from or made upon CEP in connection with
each Credit are properly made (subject to the preceding sentence) or whether
any dispute exists between the Company and the Beneficiary thereof.  The Company further agrees that any payment
CEP makes in accordance with the terms and conditions of each Credit shall be
binding upon the Company and shall be accepted by the Company as conclusive
evidence that CEP was liable to make such payment or comply with such demand.

 

2.      REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

2.1        The Company represents and warrants to
CEP and undertakes that:-

 

(i)         it has and will at all times have the necessary power
to enable it to enter into and perform the obligations expressed to be assumed by
it under this Agreement;

 

3

 

(ii)        the Agreement constitutes its legal, valid, binding
and enforceable obligation effective in accordance with its terms, subject to
general principles of equity and to bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws
affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally; and

 

(iii)       all
necessary authorisations to enable or entitle it to enter into this Agreement
have been obtained and are in full force and effect and will remain in such
force and effect at all times during the subsistence of this Agreement.

 

2.2        CEP represents warrants and undertakes to
the Company that each Credit, upon issuance, will constitute a legal, valid and
binding obligation of the issuer thereof enforceable in accordance with its
terms, subject to general principles of equity and to bankruptcy, insolvency
and similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.

 

2.3        The Company represents and warrants to CEP that:-

 

(i)         it is not unable to pay its debts as they
fall due;

 

(ii)        it has not been deemed or declared to be unable to pay
its debts under any applicable law;

 

(iii)       it has not suspended making payments on any of its
debts;

 

(iv)       it has not, by reason of actual or anticipated
financial difficulties, commenced negotiations with any of its creditors with a
view to rescheduling any of its indebtedness;

 

(v)        the value of its assets is not less than its
liabilities (taking into account contingent and prospective liabilities);

 

(vi)       no moratorium has been declared in respect of any of
its indebtedness; and

 

(vii)      no analogous or similar event or concept to those set
out in this Clause 2.2 has occurred or is the case under the laws of any
jurisdiction.

 

3.      EXTENSION/TERMINATION

 

3.1        (a)            Any Credit established
hereunder may, if requested by the Company on the relevant Application
Form and subject to CEP’s consent, bear a clause to the effect that it
will automatically be extended for successive periods of one year (or such
other period as may be stated in the relevant Application Form) UNLESS the Beneficiary has received from
the bank or institution issuing the Credit (the “Issuing Bank”) by registered
mail (or other appropriate receipted delivery) notification of intention not to
renew such Credit at least 30 days (or such other period as may be stated in
the relevant Application Form) prior to the end of the original term or, as the
case may be, of a period of extension (the “Notice Period”).

 

(b)     The Issuing Bank shall be under no
obligation to the Company to send the Beneficiary such notification (and
without such notification to the Beneficiary the Credit will be automatically
extended as provided above) UNLESS
the Company shall have sent notification to CEP by registered mail (or other
means acceptable to CEP) of its election not to renew such Credit at least 30
days prior to the commencement of the Notice Period.

 

(c)     CEP reserves the right, at its sole option
and discretion, to give or procure the giving at any time to the Beneficiary of
notification of intention not to renew any Credit.  If CEP exercises such said right, it will
give the Company notice in writing thereof as soon as is reasonably possible
but not later than notification to the Beneficiary.

 

(d)     The Company may elect to terminate any
Credit prior to the scheduled expiration date thereof by causing the return of
such Credit to the issuer thereof for cancellation with the Beneficiary’s
consent.  Upon such return, at the
Company’s request, such Credit shall be cancelled and shall no longer be deemed
outstanding for any purpose including for 

 

4

 

purposes of determining compliance with the
collateral requirements under the Pledge Agreement or calculating fees payable
to CEP.

 

4.      UCP/ISP

 

CEP
may, at its sole option, arrange for the issuance of any Credit as being
subject to either (i) the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary
Credits (1993 Revision) ICC Publication No. 500 (“the UCP”) or (ii) the
International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 590 - the International
Standby Practices 1998 (the “ISP”), (or any subsequent version of either);
provided however that CEP may agree such modifications thereof as may be
required by any regulatory or other authority having jurisdiction as to the
acceptability of the Credit in question.

 

5.      [Intentionally Omitted.]

 

6.      CREDIT
CHOICE OF LAW

 

If, at the Company’s
request, a Credit expressly chooses a state or country law other than New York,
U.S.A. or English law, or is silent with respect to the UCP, the ISP or a
governing law, CEP shall not be liable for any payment, cost, expense or loss
resulting from any action or inaction it takes provided such action or inaction
is justified under UCP, ISP, New York law, English law or the law governing the
Credit.

 

7.      BRANCHES/CORRESPONDENT BANKS

 

7.1        The Company acknowledges that CEP may carry out any of
its obligations or exercise any of its rights under this Agreement through any
of its offices or branches, wheresoever situated.

 

7.2        The Company further understands that CEP
reserves the right to issue any Credit through any third party correspondent of
its choice that is acceptable to the Company (such acceptance not to be
unreasonably withheld) and/or to have any Credit confirmed by Citibank,
N.A.  In such circumstances, CEP will be
required to guarantee reimbursement to such correspondent and/or Citibank, N.A.
of any payments which such correspondent and/or Citibank, N.A. may make under
the Credit in question and such guarantee (howsoever described) shall be
treated mutatis mutandis as a Credit for the purpose of this Agreement.

 

8.      INCREASES ETC/REINSTATEMENTS

 

The provisions of the
foregoing Clauses shall be equally applicable to any increase, extension,
renewal, partial renewal, modification or amendment of, or substitute
instrument for, any Credit to which they apply. 
If for any reason any amount paid under any Credit is repaid, in whole
or in part, by the Beneficiary thereof, CEP may, in its sole discretion, treat
(or procure the treatment of) such repayment as a reinstatement of an amount
(equal to such repayment) under such Credit. 
The value date CEP applies to any such reinstatement shall not be
earlier than the date of such repayment. 
 CEP shall not be liable for
losses of any nature which the Company may suffer or incur and/or which may
arise from any inadvertent or erroneous drawing under a Credit; provided that
CEP has confirmed that any documents required to be delivered under such Credit
have been delivered and that they appear to substantially comply on their face
with the requirements of such Credit.

HITTITE MICROWAVE CORPORATION

 

EMPLOYEE’S RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT

 

1.
Restricted Stock Award.  Hittite Microwave Corporation (the “Company”) has granted to [                              ] (the “Grantee”), a restricted stock award (the “Award”), pursuant to the Company’s 2005
Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”),
of [      ] shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, $0.01 par value (“Common Stock”), of the Company, subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan.  Except where the context otherwise requires,
the term “Company” shall include the parent and all present and future
subsidiaries of the Company as defined in Sections 424(e) and 424(f) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended or replaced from time to time
(the “Code”). Capitalized terms
used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them
in the Plan.

 

2.
Forfeitable Shares and Vested Shares.  All Shares shall be deemed to be “Forfeitable
Shares” until the Company’s right of forfeiture, described in Section 4,
below, has expired (and the Grantee’s right to retain such shares has accrued)
in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in Section 3.  Forfeitable Shares shall be subject to
forfeiture as described in Section 4, below.  “Vested
Shares” are Shares held by the Grantee as to which the Company’s
right of forfeiture has expired (and the Grantee’s right to retain has accrued)
based on the stock vesting schedule.  All
certificates representing Forfeitable Shares shall remain in the possession of
the Company until such shares become Vested Shares in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement.

 

3.
Vested Shares; Vesting Schedule.  The Company’s right of Forfeiture shall
expire and the Shares shall become Vested Shares in accordance with the
following schedule:

 

(a) One-third (33 1/3%) of
the total number of Shares shall become Vested Shares on the third anniversary
of the vesting date of [                          ] (the “Vesting Date”); and

 

(b) The remaining Shares
shall become Vested Shares on the fifth anniversary of the Vesting Date;
provided that

 

(c) in the event of a
Change in Control of the Company, as defined in the Plan, the vesting of this
Award shall be automatically be accelerated, contingent upon, and effective
immediately prior to, the consummation of the transaction constituting such
Change in Control, such that (i) the number of Shares subject to this
Award that are Vested Shares shall be equal to the number of Shares that would
have been vested as of the date of consummation of the Change in Control if the
vesting schedule of this Award had provided for vesting in 60 equal monthly
installments, commencing on the first month anniversary of the Vesting Date,
and on the corresponding day of each of the next 59 months (the “Modified
Vesting Schedule”), and (ii) this Award shall thereafter

 

 

continue to vest in accordance with the
Modified Vesting Schedule.

 

4.
Forfeiture of Shares.

 

4.1
Forfeiture.  If for any reason
the Grantee ceases to be employed by the Company (including, without
limitation, by reason of the Grantee’s voluntary resignation or the Company’s
dismissal of the Grantee for any reason, with or without cause) then all Shares
which as of the date of such termination of employment constitute Forfeitable
Shares shall be forfeited to the Company without payment of any consideration
by the Company.  There shall be no
further accruals under the vesting schedule, and no further Forfeitable Shares
shall become Vested Shares, from and after the date of any such termination of
employment.

 

4.2
Death or Disability.  In the event of the
death or Disability of the Grantee, the vesting of the Shares under the Vesting
Schedule shall be automatically accelerated so that all Shares become Vested
Shares, effective as of the date of death or Disability. The Committee shall
have sole authority and discretion to determine whether the Grantee’s
employment has been terminated by reason of Disability.

 

4.3
 Normal Retirement.  In the event of the
normal retirement of the Grantee, then the vesting of the Shares shall be
automatically accelerated so that all Shares become Vested Shares, effective as
of the date of retirement.  The Committee
shall have sole authority and discretion to determine whether the Grantee’s
employment has been terminated by reason of normal retirement.

 

4.4
Forfeiture of Forfeitable Shares.  The Grantee’s
rights in all Forfeitable Shares shall terminate automatically on the date of
the Grantee’s termination of employment, and the Company may thereupon cancel
the certificate or certificates representing such Forfeitable Shares on its
books.  In the event that the
certificates then being retained by the Company under this Agreement also
represent other shares of Common Stock not being forfeited to the Company, the
Company shall issue to the Grantee replacement certificates for such other
shares.

 

4.5
Nontransferability of Shares.  No Shares may be
transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation
of law or otherwise) or otherwise disposed of prior to their becoming Vested
Shares.  Upon any attempt to transfer,
assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any Forfeitable Shares, or
upon the levy of any attachment or similar process upon Forfeitable Shares, the
Company shall have a right of Forfeiture with respect to such Forfeitable
Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee may transfer any Shares
either during his or her lifetime or on death by will or intestacy to one or
more members of his or her immediate family or to a trust the beneficiaries of
which are exclusively the undersigned and/or a member or members of his or her
immediate family; provided, however, that prior to any such transfer each
transferee shall execute an agreement, satisfactory to the Company, pursuant to
which each transferee shall agree to receive and hold such Shares subject to
the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, the Company’s right of
forfeiture with respect to any Shares so transferred that constitute
Forfeitable Shares), and there shall be no further transfer except in
accordance with the provisions hereof. 
For the purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family” shall mean
spouse, lineal descendent, father, mother, brother or sister of the transferor.

5.
No Special Employment Rights.  Nothing contained in the Plan or this
Agreement shall confer upon the Grantee any right with respect to the
continuation of his or her employment by the Company or interfere in any way
with the right of the Company at any time to terminate such employment or to
increase or decrease the Grantee’s compensation.

 

6.
Rights as a Shareholder.  The Grantee shall have the rights of a
shareholder with respect to all of the Forfeitable Shares and the Vested Shares
held by the Grantee (including, without limitation, any rights to vote and to
receive dividends or non-cash distributions with respect to such shares) unless
and until the Company exercises its right of Forfeiture as to any or all of the
Forfeitable Shares in accordance with Section 4.

 

7. Availability
of Tax Election: Withholding.

 

(a)  Grantee acknowledges that the Company has
advised the Grantee of the possibility of making an election under Section 83(b) of
the Code with respect to the Award of the Shares and has recommended that the
Grantee consult a qualified tax advisor regarding the desirability of making
such an election in light of the Grantee’s individual circumstances.

 

(b)  Grantee shall, no later than the date as
of which the value of any Shares first becomes includable in the gross income
of the Grantee for Federal income tax purposes, pay to the Company, or make
arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding payment of any Federal,
state, local and/or payroll taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld
with respect to such income.  The Company
and its Affiliates shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to
deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the
participant.

 

(c)  Grantee may elect to have such tax
withholding obligation satisfied, in whole or in part, by (i) authorizing
the Company to withhold from the Shares a number of shares with an aggregate
Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan, and determined of the date the
withholding is effected) that would satisfy the withholding amount due with
respect to such Award, or (ii) delivering to the Company a number of
Shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the date the withholding is
effected) that would satisfy the withholding amount due.

 

8.
Miscellaneous.

 

8.1 By accepting this Award, Grantee agrees that,
if so requested by the Company or by the underwriters managing any underwritten
offering of the Company’s securities, the recipient will not, without the prior
written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, sell,
make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or
otherwise dispose of any shares subject to any such Award during the Lock-up
Period, as defined below. The “Lock-Up Period” shall mean a period of time not
exceeding 180 days or, if greater, such number of days as shall have been
agreed to by each director and executive officer of the Company in a
substantially similar lock-up agreement by which each such director and executive
officer is bound. If requested by the Company or such underwriters, the Grantee
will enter into an agreement with such underwriters consistent with the
foregoing.

 

8.2
Any certificate representing Shares shall be subject to a legend in
substantially the following form:

SHARES OF STOCK EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO AND ARE
TRANSFERABLE ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THAT CERTAIN RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT
DATED [                          ].  ANY ATTEMPTED TRANSFER OF THE SHARES OF STOCK
EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IN VIOLATION OF SUCH AGREEMENT SHALL BE NULL AND
VOID AND WITHOUT EFFECT.  A COPY OF THE
AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED FREE OF CHARGE FROM THE SECRETARY OF THE
COMPANY.”

 

8.3
Grantee hereby agrees to execute and deliver to the Secretary of the Company a
stock power (endorsed in blank) hereto covering this Award and authorizes the
Secretary to deliver to the Company for cancellation any and all Shares that
are forfeited or withheld under the provisions of this Agreement.

 

8.4
Except as provided herein, this Agreement may not be amended or otherwise
modified unless evidenced in writing and signed by the Company and the Grantee.

 

8.5
All notices under this Agreement shall be mailed or delivered by hand to the
parties at their respective addresses set forth beneath their names below or at
such other address as may be designated in writing by either of the parties to
one another.

 

8.6
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws
of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to its principles of
conflicts of laws.

 

8.7
This Agreement is and shall be subject in every respect to the provisions of
the Plan, as amended from time to time, which is incorporated herein by
reference and made a part hereof.

 

8.8
This Agreement is executed in two (2) counterpart originals, one (1) to
be retained by the Grantee and one (1) to be retained by the Company.
