Item 1.01                      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On December 17, 2007, EMCORE Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Intel Corporation (“Seller”).  Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company will purchase certain of the assets of Seller and its subsidiaries relating to the telecom portion of Seller’s Optical Platform Division for a purchase price of $85 million, as adjusted based on an inventory true-up, plus specifically assumed liabilities.  The purchase price will be paid $75 million in cash and $10 million in cash or common stock of the Company, at the Company’s option.

The Company and Seller each made certain representations, warranties and covenants in the Agreement, including, among others, covenants by Seller to use commercially reasonable efforts to preserve intact the assets to be transferred to the Company and to refrain from taking certain non-ordinary course transactions during the period before consummation of the transaction.

Consummation of the transaction is subject to certain conditions, including that governmental approvals, including antitrust approvals, have been obtained.  The parties have agreed to enter into a transition services agreement under which Seller will provide selected services to the Company for a limited period after closing.  The parties have also entered into an intellectual property agreement under which Seller will license, subject to certain conditions, certain related intellectual property to the Company in connection with the Company’s use and development of the assets being transferred to it.

The Agreement contains termination rights for both the Company and Seller including a provision allowing either party to terminate the Agreement if the transaction has not been consummated by June 18, 2008.
