Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 12, 2015, Integrated Silicon Solution, Inc. (the “Company” or “ISSI”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Uphill Investment Co. (“Parent”) providing for the merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”) with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned, direct or indirect, subsidiary of Parent. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined have the meaning set forth in the Merger Agreement.

At the Effective Time of the Merger, each share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (such shares, collectively, the “Shares”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding, (i) any shares held in the treasury of the Company or owned, directly or indirectly, by Parent or Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) any Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that are held by any holder who has not voted in favor of the Merger and who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such Shares pursuant to Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”)) will be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive $19.25 in cash, without interest, and subject to deduction for any required withholding Tax (the “Merger Consideration”).

At the Effective Time, each option to purchase shares of Company Common Stock (a “Company Option”), each restricted stock unit outstanding (a “Company Restricted Stock Unit”) and each stock appreciation right in respect of shares of Company Stock (a “Company SAR”) outstanding under any of the Company Stock Plans that is unvested and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted automatically into a right to receive cash based on formulas set forth in the Merger Agreement and subject to the same vesting terms and conditions in effect for such awards at the Effective Time. At the Effective Time, each Company Option and Company SAR under any of the Company Stock Plans that is vested and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and each Company Restricted Stock Unit that is outstanding and vests and becomes settleable by its terms at the Effective Time will be cancelled and terminated as of the Effective Time and, in exchange therefor, each holder of any such vested Company Option, Company Restricted Stock Unit, or Company SAR, as applicable, will have the right to receive an amount in cash (without interest, and subject to deduction for any required withholding Tax) based on formulas set forth in the Merger Agreement. At the Effective Time, any Company Options or Company SARs that have a per share exercise or base price exceeding the Merger Consideration will be cancelled without consideration.

Consummation of the Merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including, without limitation, (i) the absence of certain legal impediments, (ii) if applicable, antitrust regulatory approval pursuant to the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 and the expiration or termination of the waiting periods thereunder and (iii) filings and approvals with or by PRC Governmental Authorities and the Taiwan Governmental Authorities.

The Merger Agreement provides that in connection with the closing of the Merger, the Company’s operations in Taiwan will be restructured or some or all of the Company’s Taiwan operations will be sold as necessary to comply with the requirements of Taiwan laws and regulations. In the event such restructuring and sale is not permitted by the Taiwanese government, or the merger would be illegal in Taiwan despite such restructuring or sale, Parent will not be required to consummate the merger, subject to the payment of the reverse terminations fees described below.

The Company has made customary representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement and has agreed to customary covenants regarding the operation of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time. The Company is also subject to customary restrictions on its ability to solicit alternative acquisition proposals from third parties and to provide non-public information to, and participate in discussions and engage in negotiations with, third parties regarding alternative acquisition proposals, with customary exceptions for Superior Proposals.

The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for the Company and Parent. Upon termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, the Company will be required to pay Parent a termination fee of $19,168,150. If the Merger Agreement is terminated (i) by either the Company or Parent, as applicable, in the event that (a) (x) the Merger has not been consummated by the Termination Date (y) the Company Stockholder Approval is not obtained at the Company Stockholders Meeting or (z) the Company breaches its covenants such that the applicable closing condition regarding performance of covenants would not be satisfied, (b) an Acquisition Proposal has been publicly disclosed and not withdrawn and (c) the Company, within 12 months of termination, consummates an Acquisition Proposal or enters into an Acquisition Proposal which is subsequently consummated (whether or not within such 12 month period); (ii) by Parent due to a Company Board Recommendation Change; or (iii) by the Company due to entry into a definitive agreement providing for the consummation of a Superior Proposal, then the termination fee will become payable by the Company to Parent. The Merger Agreement also provides that, upon termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, Parent will be required to pay the Company a reverse termination fee of $19,168,150. If the Merger Agreement is terminated (i) by Parent or

the Company in the event that (a) the Merger has not been consummated by the Termination Date as a result of the failure to obtain regulatory approval in the PRC or Taiwan or (b) the PRC has otherwise rendered the Merger illegal or prohibited; or (ii) by Company in the event that (a) the Company has confirmed it is ready and able to consummate the Merger and (b) Parent fails to consummate the Merger within three Business Days following the date on which Closing should have occurred, then the reverse termination fee will become payable by Parent to the Company. Lastly, the Merger Agreement provides for the Parent to pay a reverse termination fee of $9,584,075 in the event the government of Taiwan delivers a written notice to the effect that the Taiwan government does not approve consummation of the sale of the Taiwan subsidiaries or that the sale of the Taiwan subsidiaries would be illegal in Taiwan, or that the Taiwan government would not approve the Merger notwithstanding the sale of Taiwan subsidiaries or the consummation of the Merger, notwithstanding the consummation of the sale of Taiwan subsidiaries, would be illegal in Taiwan.

As described below, to help ensure that the termination fee and reverse termination fee are available to the Company and Parent in the event they become payable, concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Parent is placing an aggregate amount of cash equal to the value of the reverse termination fee, partly denominated in United States Dollars and partly denominated in RMB, into two escrow accounts. The Company is obligated, within 20 business days of the execution of the Merger Agreement, to place an amount of cash equal to the termination fee into an escrow account.

In addition to the foregoing, and subject to certain limitations, the Company or Parent may terminate the Merger Agreement if the Merger is not consummated by the six month anniversary of the execution of the Merger Agreement, provided that either party may request a 3 month extension of such period, to which the other party may grant its consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) (provided further that no such consent will be required in the event the extension of this period is requested in order to implement the Taiwan restructuring).

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Parent has delivered to the Company (i) equity commitment letters from certain Sponsors and (ii) a debt commitment letter from Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Ltd. (collectively, the “Commitment Letters”), which together, subject to the conditions contained in such letters, commit sufficient funds to Parent to enable it to consummate the Merger and make all payments required under and in connection with the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement contains customary covenants requiring Parent to keep the Commitment Letters in force and effect and to enforce its rights thereunder in order to consummate the Merger.

Concurrent with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Parent and the Company (or their affiliates) entered into two escrow agreements (the “Escrow Agreements”), pursuant to which the reverse termination fee will be held in escrow until it is released to the Parent or to the Company, as applicable. First, Parent and a subsidiary of the Company entered into an Escrow Agreement with Deutsche Bank (China) Co., Ltd. Shanghai Branch pursuant to which Parent cause to be deposited approximately RMB 71,422,021, representing approximately 60% of the aggregate reverse termination fee. Second, an affiliate of one of the Sponsors, acting as an agent of Parent, and the Company entered into an Escrow Agreement with China Merchants Bank pursuant to which such affiliate deposited approximately US$7,790,000, representing the approximate remaining 40% of the aggregate reverse termination fee.

The foregoing descriptions of the Merger Agreement, the Escrow Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by reference to, the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 hereto, and the Escrow Agreements, which are attached as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 hereto, and are incorporated herein by reference.

The Merger Agreement contains representations and warranties by each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company. These representations and warranties were made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement and (i) should not be treated as categorical statements of fact, but rather as a way of allocating the risk to one of the parties if those statements prove to be inaccurate; (ii) may have been qualified in the Merger Agreement by disclosures that were made to the other party in connection with the negotiation of the Merger Agreement; (iii) may apply contractual standards of “materiality” that are different from “materiality” under applicable securities laws; and (iv) were made only as of the date of the Merger Agreement or such other date or dates as may be specified in the Merger Agreement.

Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws

On March 11, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an amendment to the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company (the “Bylaw Amendment”). The Bylaw Amendment amends the Bylaws to include a forum selection clause that establishes the Courts of Santa Clara County in the State of California (or, only if the Courts of Santa Clara County in the State of California decline to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any federal court within the State of California) as the

sole and exclusive forums for certain legal claims and actions, including derivative actions, actions asserting a breach of fiduciary duty by the directors or officers of the Company, actions based on the DGCL, or actions asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum. The foregoing description of the Bylaw Amendment is only a summary, does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Bylaw Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 8.01. Other Events

On March 12, 2015, Parent and the Company issued a joint press release announcing the entry into the Merger Agreement. The text of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

Promptly after filing its definitive proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), ISSI will mail the definitive proxy statement and a proxy card to each stockholder entitled to vote at a Special Meeting of Stockholders to consider approval of the acquisition (the “Special Meeting”). STOCKHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT (INCLUDING ANY AMENDMENTS OR SUPPLEMENTS THERETO) AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS THAT ISSI WILL FILE WITH THE SEC WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION. Stockholders may obtain, free of charge, copies of the definitive proxy statement and any other documents filed by ISSI with the SEC in connection with the Special Meeting at the SEC’s website (http://www.sec.gov), at ISSI’s website (http://www.issi.com) or by writing to Investor Relations, Integrated Silicon Solution, Inc., 1623 Buckeye Drive, Milpitas, CA 95035.

Participants in the Solicitation

ISSI, its directors and certain executive officers are participants in the solicitation of proxies from stockholders in connection with ISSI’s Special Meeting of Stockholders to consider approval of the acquisition (the “Special Meeting”). ISSI plans to file a proxy statement with the SEC in connection with the solicitation of proxies for the Special Meeting.

Jimmy S. M. Lee, Scott D. Howarth, Kong Yeu Han, Paul Chien, Jonathan Khazam, Keith McDonald, Stephen Pletcher, Bruce A. Wooley and John Zimmerman, all of whom are members of ISSI’s Board of Directors, and John M. Cobb, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, are participants in ISSI’s solicitation. Other than Messrs. Lee and Han, none of such participants owns in excess of 1% of ISSI’s common stock. Messrs. Lee and Han may each be deemed to own approximately 1.1% of ISSI’s common stock. Additional information regarding such participants, including their direct or indirect interests, by security holdings or otherwise, will be included in the proxy statement and other relevant documents to be filed with the SEC in connection with the Special Meeting. Information relating to the foregoing can also be found in ISSI’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, which was filed with the SEC on January 27, 2015. To the extent that holdings of ISSI’s securities have changed since the amounts printed in the Form 10-K/A, such changes have been or will be reflected on Statements of Change in Ownership on Form 4 filed with the SEC.

2.7 Effect on Capital Stock.

(a) Capital Stock. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Acquisition Sub, the Company, or the holders of any of the following securities, the following shall occur:

(i) Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (A) Cancelled Company Shares and (B) any Dissenting Company Shares) shall be canceled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive cash in an amount equal to the Merger Consideration, without interest thereon, upon the surrender of the certificate representing such share of Company Common Stock in the manner provided in Section 2.8 (or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, upon delivery of an affidavit in the manner provided in Section 2.10).

(ii) Excluded Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock owned by Parent, Acquisition Sub or the Company, or by any direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent or Acquisition Sub or by any direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Company, in each case immediately prior to the Effective Time (“Cancelled Company Shares”), shall be cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or consideration paid therefor.

(iii) Capital Stock of Acquisition Sub. Each share of common stock of Acquisition Sub that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation. Each certificate evidencing ownership of such shares of common stock of Acquisition Sub shall thereafter evidence ownership of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Adjustment to the Merger Consideration. The Merger Consideration shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Common Stock but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the granting or other issuance of Company Options, Company SARs or Company Restricted Stock Units in the ordinary course of business), reclassification, recapitalization, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to Company Common Stock occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

(c) Statutory Rights of Appraisal.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, all shares of Company Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by Company Stockholders who shall neither have voted in favor of the Merger nor consented thereto in writing and who shall have properly and validly perfected their statutory rights of appraisal in respect of such shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (collectively, “Dissenting Company Shares”) shall not be converted into, or represent the right to receive, the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.7(a), but shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by the DGCL to a holder of Dissenting Company Shares. At the Effective Time, the Dissenting Company Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and cease to exist, and each Company

-18-

Stockholder who holds Dissenting Company Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive payment of the appraised value of such Dissenting Company Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL; provided, however, that all Dissenting Company Shares held by Company Stockholders who shall have failed to perfect or who shall have effectively withdrawn or lost their rights to appraisal of such Dissenting Company Shares under such Section 262 of the DGCL shall no longer be considered to be Dissenting Company Shares and shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into, and to have become exchangeable for, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest thereon, upon surrender of the certificate or certificates that formerly evidenced such shares of Company Common Stock in the manner provided in Section 2.8.

(ii) The Company shall give Parent (A) prompt notice of any demands for appraisal received by the Company, withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to Delaware Law and received by the Company in respect of Dissenting Company Shares and (B) the opportunity to consult with the Company concerning and to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under Delaware Law in respect of Dissenting Company Shares. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal, or settle or offer to settle any such demands for payment, in respect of Dissenting Company Shares.

(d) Company Options. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and without any action on the part of Parent, Acquisition Sub, the Company or any holder of such Company Options, each Company Option that remains outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be treated as follows:

(i) Each Company Option that is outstanding and vested as of the Effective Time (including a Company Option that vests by its terms at the Effective Time) (a “Vested Company Option”) shall be cancelled and terminated as of the Effective Time and the holder thereof shall receive, subject to Section 2.8(e), an amount in cash (without interest), if any, equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Vested Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (y) the Merger Consideration less the per share exercise price of such Vested Company Option (the “Vested Option Consideration”) (it being understood and agreed that such exercise price shall not actually be paid to the Company by the holder of a Company Option). The Company shall pay to each holder of Vested Company Options the Vested Option Consideration, if any, described in the immediately preceding sentence (through the Company’s or a Company Subsidiary’s payroll system, or the Company’s or a Company Subsidiary’s equity award administrator, as may be applicable and in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices for service providers located outside of the United States) on either (A) the first (1^st) regularly scheduled payroll after the Closing or (B) if such first (1^st) payroll is scheduled for payment prior to the tenth (10^th) Business Day after the Closing, the second (2^nd) regularly scheduled payroll after the Closing, in any such case, consistent with past practices, including accounting for all applicable withholding.

-19-

(ii) Each Company Option that is outstanding and unvested as of the Effective Time and not described in Section 2.7(d)(i) (an “Unvested Company Option”) shall be converted into the right to receive, subject to Section 2.8(e), an amount of cash determined by multiplying (x) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Unvested Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (y) the Merger Consideration less the per share exercise price of such Unvested Company Option (the “Unvested Option Consideration”). The Unvested Option Consideration will be subject to the same vesting restrictions and continued service requirements (collectively, the “Continuing Obligations”) applicable to the Unvested Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, except for administrative changes that are not adverse to the holder of the Unvested Company Option or to which the holder consents. Payment of the Unvested Option Consideration in respect of an Unvested Company Option shall be made, subject to such terms and conditions, on the vesting dates applicable to the Unvested Company Option, as described in this Section 2.7(d).

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the per share exercise price of any Company Option equals or exceeds the Merger Consideration, such Company Option shall be cancelled without any payment or consideration and all rights with respect to such Company Option shall terminate as of the Effective Time.

(e) Company SARs. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and without any action on the part of Parent, Acquisition Sub, the Company or any holder of such Company SAR each Company SAR that remains outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be treated as follows:

(i) Each Company SAR that is outstanding and vested as of the Effective Time (including a Company SAR that vests by its terms at the Effective Time) (a “Vested Company SAR”) shall be cancelled and Terminated as of the Effective Time and the holder thereof shall receive, subject to Section 2.8(e), an amount in cash (without interest), if any, equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Vested Company SAR immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (y) the Merger Consideration less the base price of such Vested Company SAR (the “Vested SAR Consideration”). The Company shall pay to each holder of Vested Company SAR the Vested SAR Consideration, if any, described in the immediately preceding sentence (through the Company’s or a Company Subsidiary’s payroll system, or the Company’s or a Company Subsidiary’s equity award administrator, as may be applicable and in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices for service providers located outside of the United States) on either (A) the first (1^st) regularly scheduled payroll after the Closing or (B) if such first (1^st) payroll is scheduled for payment prior to the tenth (10^th) Business Day after the Closing, the second (2^nd) regularly scheduled payroll after the Closing, in any such case, consistent with past practices, including accounting for all applicable withholding.

(ii) Each Company SAR that is outstanding and unvested as of the Effective Time and not described in Section 2.7(e)(i) (an “Unvested Company SAR”) shall be converted into the right to receive, subject to Section 2.8(e), an amount in cash (without interest), if any, equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the number of shares of Company

-20-

Common Stock subject to the Unvested Company SAR immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (y) the Merger Consideration less the base price of such Unvested Company SAR (the “Unvested SAR Consideration”). The Unvested SAR Consideration will be subject to the same vesting terms and conditions applicable to the SARs immediately prior to the Effective Time, including the Continuing Obligations, except for administrative changes that are not adverse to the holder of the SAR or to which the holder consents. Payment of the Unvested SAR Consideration shall be made, subject to such terms and conditions, on the vesting dates applicable to the Unvested Company SAR.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the base price of any Company SAR equals or exceeds the Merger Consideration, such Company SAR shall be cancelled without any payment or consideration and all rights with respect to such Company SAR shall terminate as of the Effective Time.

(f) Company Restricted Stock Units. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and without any action on the part of Parent, Acquisition Sub, the Company or any holder of such Company Restricted Stock Units, each Company Restricted Stock Unit that remains outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be treated as follows:

(i) Each Company Restricted Stock Unit that is outstanding and vests and becomes settleable by its terms at the Effective Time (a “Vested Restricted Stock Unit”) shall be cancelled and terminated as of the Effective Time and the holder thereof shall receive, subject to Section 2.8(e), an amount in cash (without interest) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Vested Restricted Stock Unit immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (y) the Merger Consideration (the “Restricted Stock Unit Consideration”). The Company shall pay to each holder of Vested Restricted Stock Unit the Restricted Stock Unit Consideration described in the immediately preceding sentence (through the Company’s or a Company Subsidiary’s payroll system, or the Company’s or a Company Subsidiary’s equity award administrator, as may be applicable and in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices for service providers located outside of the United States) on either (A) the first (1^st) regularly scheduled payroll after the Closing or (B) if such first (1^st) payroll is scheduled for payment prior to the tenth (10^th) Business Day after the Closing, the second (2^nd) regularly scheduled payroll after the Closing, in any such case, consistent with past practices, including accounting for all applicable withholding.

(ii) Each Company Restricted Stock Unit that is outstanding and unvested as of the Effective Time and not described in Section 2.7(f)(i) (an “Unvested Restricted Stock Unit”) shall be converted into the right to receive, subject to Section 2.8(e), an amount of cash determined by multiplying (x) aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Unvested Restricted Stock Units immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (y) the Merger Consideration (the “Unvested Restricted Stock Unit Consideration”). The Unvested Restricted Stock Unit Consideration will be subject to the same vesting terms and conditions applicable to the Restricted Stock Units immediately prior to the Effective Time, including the Continuing Obligations, except for administrative changes that are not adverse to

-21-

the holder of the Restricted Stock Unit or to which the holder consents. Payment of the Unvested Restricted Stock Unit Consideration shall be made, subject to such terms and conditions, on the vesting dates applicable to the Restricted Stock Units as described in this Section 2.7(f).

(g) The Company shall take all actions reasonably necessary to effect the transactions contemplated by Sections 2.7(d), (e) and (f) under all Company Option, Company SAR and Company Restricted Stock Unit agreements and any other plan or arrangement of the Company, including delivering all required notices and obtaining any required consent. Within three (3) Business Days after the Closing, Parent shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Surviving Corporation, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to pay to each of the holders of Vested Company Options, Vested Company SARs and Vested Restricted Stock Units, the applicable Vested Company Option Consideration, Vested SAR Consideration and Restricted Stock Unit Consideration (through the Surviving Corporation’s or a Surviving Corporation Subsidiary’s payroll system, or the Surviving Corporation’s or a Surviving Corporation’s Subsidiary equity award administrator, as may be applicable and in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices for service providers located outside of the United States) on either (A) the first (1^st) regularly scheduled payroll after the Closing or (B) if such first (1^st) payroll is scheduled for payment prior to the tenth (10^th) Business Day after the Closing, the second (2^nd) regularly scheduled payroll after the Closing, in any such case, consistent with past practices, including accounting for all applicable withholding.

(h) Company ESPP. From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company will not establish any new offering period under the Company ESPP.

For avoidance of doubt, but without prejudice to the rights to receive Unvested Option Consideration, Unvested SAR Consideration and Unvested Restricted Stock Unit Consideration as set forth in this Section 2.7, Parent will not assume any Company Options, Company SARs or Company Restricted Stock Units.

-22-

2.8 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Payment Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall select a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as the payment agent for the Merger (the “Payment Agent”).

(b) Exchange Fund. At or immediately following the Closing, Parent shall deposit (or cause to be deposited) with the Payment Agent, for payment to the holders of shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to the provisions of this Article II, an amount of cash equal to the aggregate consideration to which holders of Company Common Stock become entitled under this Article II. Until disbursed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, such funds shall be invested by the Payment Agent, as directed by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America or obligations of an agency of the United States of America which are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America (such cash amount being referred to herein as the “Exchange Fund”). Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Parent. To the extent that there are any losses with respect to any investments of the Exchange Fund, or the Exchange Fund diminishes for any reason below the level required for the Payment Agent to promptly pay the cash amounts contemplated by this Article II, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, promptly replace or restore the cash in the Exchange Fund so as to ensure that the Exchange Fund is at all times maintained at a level sufficient for the Payment Agent to make such payments contemplated by this Article II.

(c) Payment Procedures. Promptly following the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Payment Agent to mail to each holder of record (as of immediately prior to the Effective Time) of (i) a certificate or certificates (the “Certificates”) which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock and (ii) uncertificated shares of Company Common Stock (the “Uncertificated Shares”), in each case, whose shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.7 (A) a letter of transmittal in customary form (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Payment Agent), and/or (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates and Uncertificated Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Article II. Upon surrender of Certificates for cancellation to the Payment Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by Parent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holders of such Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Certificate that were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.7, by (y) the Merger Consideration (less any applicable withholding taxes payable in respect thereof), and the Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. Upon receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Payment Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Payment Agent may reasonably request) in the case of a book-entry transfer of Uncertificated Shares, the holders of such Uncertificated Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock represented by such holder’s transferred Uncertificated Shares that were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to

-23-

Section 2.7, by (y) the Merger Consideration (less any applicable withholding taxes payable in respect thereof), and the transferred Uncertificated Shares so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. The Payment Agent shall accept such Certificates and transferred Uncertificated Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Payment Agent may impose to effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices. No interest shall be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates and Uncertificated Shares on the Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender of such Certificates and Uncertificated Shares pursuant to this Section 2.8. Until so surrendered, outstanding Certificates and Uncertificated Shares shall be deemed from and after the Effective Time, to evidence only the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest thereon, payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Article II.

(d) Transfers of Ownership. In the event that a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Common Stock is not registered in the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company, or if the Merger Consideration is to be paid in a name other than that in which the Certificates or Uncertificated Shares surrendered in exchange therefor are registered in the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company, the Merger Consideration may be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate or Uncertificated Share so surrendered is registered in the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company only if such Certificate or Uncertificated Shares is properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for surrender and transfer and the Person requesting such payment has paid to Parent (or any agent designated by Parent) any transfer taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Uncertificated Shares, or established to the satisfaction of Parent (or any agent designated by Parent) that such transfer taxes have been paid or are otherwise not payable.

(e) Required Withholding. Each of the Payment Agent, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any cash amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder or former holder of shares of Company Common Stock, Company Options, Company SARs and Company Restricted Stock Units such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under applicable Tax Laws. To the extent that such amounts are so deducted, withheld and remitted to the applicable Governmental Authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

(f) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, none of the Payment Agent, Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any other party hereto shall be liable to a holder of shares of Company Common Stock for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(g) Distribution of Exchange Fund to Parent. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of the Certificates or Uncertificated Shares on the date that is twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent upon demand, and any holders of shares of Company Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger who have not theretofore surrendered their Certificates or Uncertificated Shares representing such shares of Company Common Stock for exchange

-24-

pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.8 shall thereafter look for payment of the Merger Consideration payable in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares solely to Parent, as general creditors thereof, for any claim to the applicable Merger Consideration to which such holders may be entitled pursuant to the provisions of this Article II.

2.9 No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, all shares of Company Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled, retired and cease to exist, and each holder of a Certificate or Uncertificated Shares theretofore representing any shares of Company Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable therefor upon the surrender thereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.8. The Merger Consideration paid in accordance with the terms of this Article II shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of the Company Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than transfers to reflect, in accordance with customary settlement procedures, trades effected prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.

2.10 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Payment Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.7; provided that Parent or the Payment Agent may, in its discretion and as condition to the payment of such Merger Consideration, require the owners of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to deliver a bond in such customary and reasonable amount as it may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Payment Agent with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

2.11 Necessary Further Actions. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Acquisition Sub, the directors and officers of the Company and Acquisition Sub shall take all such lawful and necessary action.

The Company is not in violation of its certificate of incorporation or bylaws. The Company has delivered to Parent correct and complete copies of its certificate of incorporation and bylaws as amended as of the date of this Agreement.

3.2 Corporate Power; Enforceability.

The Company has made available to Parent correct and complete copies of the minutes (or, in the case of minutes that have not yet been finalized, drafts thereof) of all meetings of stockholders, the Board of Directors and each committee of the Board of Directors of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries held since January 1, 2013, other than the minutes of those meetings of the Board of Directors and committees thereof at which the negotiation and execution of this Agreement or any prior negotiations with any third parties in respect of any similar transactions were discussed.

4.10 Financing.

(a) Parent has delivered to the Company (i) an executed letter of commitment (the “Bank Letter”) from the financial institution named therein (the “Lender”), for the purpose of funding a portion of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Debt Financing,” provided that for purposes of this Agreement, the Debt Financing shall also include, after the date hereof, to the extent alternative financing from alternative financial institutions is obtained in accordance with this Agreement, any such alternative financing), and (ii) an executed equity commitment letter from each of the Sponsors (each, an “Equity Commitment Letter” and, together with the Bank Letter, the “Commitment Letters”), pursuant to which, and subject only to the terms and conditions expressly set forth therein, each Sponsor has committed to invest the amounts set forth therein (the “Equity Financing” and, together with the Debt Financing, the “Financing”). There are no conditions precedent or other contingencies related to the investing of the full amount of the Financing, as of the date of this Agreement, other than as set forth in the Commitment Letters. The Equity Commitment Letter provides, and will continue to provide, that the Company is a third party beneficiary thereof.

(b) As of the date hereof (i) each of the Commitment Letters is in full force and effect and has not been withdrawn or terminated or otherwise amended, supplemented or modified in any respect; (ii) each of the Commitment Letters, in the form so delivered, is a legal, valid and binding obligation of Parent and Acquisition Sub and, to the knowledge of Parent and Acquisition Sub, the other parties thereto (as applicable and subject to the terms thereof and to the Enforceability Limitations); and (iii) no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach on the part of Parent or Acquisition Sub under any term, or a failure of any condition, of any of the Commitment Letters or otherwise result in any portion of the Financing contemplated thereby to be unavailable. As of the date hereof, subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company contained in Article III hereof, and the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 hereof, neither Parent nor Acquisition Sub has reason to believe that it will be unable to satisfy on a timely basis any term or condition contained in any of the Commitment Letters required to be satisfied by it or that any portion of the Financing contemplated thereby will be unavailable to Parent and Acquisition Sub at the Effective Time. Parent and Acquisition Sub have fully paid any and all commitment fees or other fees in connection with the Commitment Letters that are due and payable on or before the date of this Agreement.

(c) Assuming the Financing is funded in accordance with the Commitment Letters, as of the date hereof, the aggregate net proceeds from the Financing provided under the Commitment Letters are sufficient to fund all of the amounts required to be provided by Parent and/or Acquisition Sub for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and are sufficient for the satisfaction of all of Parent’s and Acquisition Sub’s obligations under this Agreement, including the payment of all amounts required to be paid pursuant to Article II, any

-55-

repayment or refinancing of indebtedness of Parent, Acquisition Sub, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries required in connection with the Merger, and the payment of all associated costs and expenses of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby.

(d) The obligations of Parent and Acquisition Sub under this Agreement are not contingent in any respect upon the funding of the amounts contemplated to be funded pursuant to the Commitment Letters. The obligations of Parent and Acquisition Sub under this Agreement are not subject to any conditions regarding Parent’s, Acquisition Sub’s, their respective Affiliates’, or any other Person’s ability to obtain financing for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

4.11 Solvency. None of Parent, Acquisition Sub or any Sponsor is entering into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with the actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors of Parent, Acquisition Sub, any Sponsor, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries. Each of Parent and Acquisition Sub is Solvent as of the date of this Agreement, and each of Parent and the Surviving Corporation will, after giving effect to all of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Financing, the payment of the aggregate Merger Consideration, the payment of all other amounts required to be paid in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the payment of all related fees and expenses, be Solvent at the Effective Time. As used in this Section 4.11, the term “Solvent” means, with respect to a particular date, that on such date, (a) the sum of the assets, at a fair valuation, of Parent and Acquisition Sub (on a consolidated basis) will exceed their debts (on a consolidated basis), (b) Parent and Acquisition Sub (on a consolidated basis) has not incurred and does not intend to incur, and does not believe that it will incur, debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as such debts mature, and (c) Parent and Acquisition Sub (on a consolidated basis) has reasonably sufficient capital with which to conduct its business. For purposes of this Section 4.11, “debt” means any liability on a claim, and “claim” means any (i) right to payment, whether or not such a right is reduced to judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, legal, equitable, secured or unsecured, and (ii) any right to an equitable remedy for breach of performance if such breach gives rise to a payment, whether or not such right to an equitable remedy is reduced to judgment, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, secured or unsecured.

4.12 Non-Reliance; Exclusivity of Representations.

(a) In connection with the due diligence investigation of the Company by Parent and Acquisition Sub and their respective Affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives or advisors, Parent and Acquisition Sub and their respective Affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives and advisors have received and may continue to receive after the date hereof (including pursuant to Section 6.8) from the Company and its Affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives and advisors certain estimates, projections, forecasts and other forward-looking

-56-

information, as well as certain business plan information, regarding the Company and its business and operations. Parent and Acquisition Sub hereby acknowledge that there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such estimates, projections, forecasts and other forward-looking statements, as well as in such business plans, that Parent and Acquisition Sub are making their own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all estimates, projections, forecasts and other forward-looking information, as well as such business plans, so furnished to them (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections, forecasts, forward-looking information or business plans). Accordingly, Parent and Acquisition Sub hereby acknowledge and agree that none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, nor any of their respective Affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives or advisors, nor any other Person, has made or is making any express or implied representation or warranty with respect to such estimates, projections, forecasts, forward-looking statements or business plans (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections, forecasts, forward-looking statements or business plans), unless any information contained in such estimates, projections, forecasts, plans or budgets is also expressly contained in any of the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in this Agreement.

(b) Except for the representations and warranties expressly set forth in this Article IV, (a) neither Parent nor Acquisition Sub (or any other Person) makes, or has made, any representation or warranty relating to Parent or Acquisition Sub or any of their Affiliates or any of their respective businesses or operations or otherwise in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and (b) no Person has been authorized by Parent or Acquisition Sub to make any representation or warranty relating to Parent or Acquisition Sub or any of their Affiliates or any of their respective businesses or operations or otherwise in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, including as to the accuracy or completeness thereof, and if made, such representation or warranty must not be relied upon by the Company or any of its Affiliates or any Representatives of any of the foregoing as having been authorized by Parent or Acquisition Sub or any of their Affiliates (or any other Person on their behalf).

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 5.2 or elsewhere in this Agreement, prior to the Effective Time, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall terminate, amend, modify or waive any rights under, or release any Person (other than Parent and Acquisition Sub) from, any “standstill” or other similar agreement between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and such Person, on the other, unless the Company Board and/or any authorized committee thereof determines in good faith (after

-62-

consultation with its outside legal counsel) that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Company Stockholders under Delaware Law.

(e) In addition to the obligations of the Company set forth in Section 5.2(b), the Company shall promptly (and in any event within 48 hours) notify Parent of any receipt by the Company or any of its Representatives of (i) any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) any request for information that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, or (iii) any inquiry with respect to, or which would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal, including with such notice the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry, and the identity of the Person or group making any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry (and shall include with such notice copies of any written materials received from or on behalf of such Person in connection with or relating to such Acquisition Proposal (including any financial terms)). The Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed of the status and material terms of any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry.

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Company’s cooperation in implementing the Taiwan Plan, including any discussions or actions taken in connection with any Taiwan Divestiture at the request of Parent, be a violation or breach of its covenants under this Section 5.2, and the Taiwan Divestiture shall not constitute an Acquisition Proposal under this Agreement.

Any such disclosures, rights to participate or provisions of information by one party to the other may be made on a counsel-only basis to the extent required under applicable Law or as appropriate to protect confidential business information.

(d) Each of Parent, Acquisition Sub and the Company shall cooperate with one another to (i) promptly determine whether any filings not contemplated by this Section 6.2 are required to be or should be made, and whether any other consents, approvals, permits or authorizations not contemplated by this Section 6.2 are required to be or should be obtained, from any Governmental Authority under any other applicable Law in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and (ii) promptly make any filings, furnish information required in connection therewith and seek to obtain timely any such consents, permits, authorizations, approvals or waivers that the parties determine are required to be or should be made or obtained in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

(f) With respect to the CFIUS Approval:

(i) Each of Parent, Acquisition Sub and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to offer to take (and if such offer is accepted, commit to take) all reasonable steps which it is capable of taking to obtain the CFIUS Approval.

-66-

(ii) In furtherance of the foregoing, if and to the extent required to obtain the CFIUS Approval, Parent agrees to undertake any reasonable mitigation efforts, including the following: propose, negotiate, offer to commit and effect, by consent decree or otherwise, the termination or cancellation of all or a portion of sales contracts with customers in the United States for Company Products and the sale, license, assignment, transfer or other divestiture or disposition of any assets or businesses of the Company; provided that any such mitigation efforts shall not be required to the extent the Contracts, Company Products, assets and businesses affected by such mitigation efforts, including any such terminated or cancelled contracts or sold, licensed, assigned, transferred, divested or dispossessed assets, are responsible for revenues, in the aggregate, in excess of $5,000,000 per year, or such mitigation efforts otherwise have an adverse effect on the Parent or the Company (whether before or after the Closing) that is material in any respect. The Company, if (and only if) requested by Parent, shall agree to effect the foregoing so long as the effect thereof is binding upon the Company only if the Effective Time occurs.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in this Agreement to the contrary, except as provided in Section 6.2(f)(ii) and Section 6.2(h), none of Parent, Acquisition Sub or the Company shall be required to (and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries, without first obtaining Parent’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Parent’s sole discretion, shall, or shall offer or agree to):

(i) propose, negotiate, offer to commit and effect, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, license, assignment, transfer or other divestiture or disposition of any assets or businesses of Parent or its Subsidiaries or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;

(ii) offer to take or offer to commit to take any action that limits its freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain, any of the businesses, services or assets of Parent or its Subsidiaries and the Company and its Subsidiaries; or

(iii) take any other actions that would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect or that would be materially adverse to Parent (whether before or after the Closing).

(h) Taiwan Plan.

(i) Parent and the Company agree that, following the date hereof, they will cooperate in good faith to formulate a detailed plan providing for the restructuring of certain aspects of the Company and its Subsidiaries’ business pursuant to which the Merger would be permitted to be consummated under the Laws of the Republic of China (the “Taiwan Plan”). The Taiwan Plan may, to the extent required, provide for, without limitation, (i) the divestiture or disposition of certain assets (including Subsidiaries) of the Company, (ii) the negotiation, execution and performance of acquisition agreements with third parties to acquire such assets (including pursuant to the Taiwan Divestiture, as described below) (iii) the transfer or reassignment of certain employees and/or independent contractors of the Company and its Subsidiaries and (iv) the reclassification of certain industry codes of the Company or its Subsidiaries pursuant to the Laws of the Republic of China; provided that any such actions shall

-67-

become binding on the Company no earlier than, and contingent upon, the consummation of the Merger. Once agreed, Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to implement the steps contemplated by the Taiwan Plan over which Parent exercises control. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate with Parent, and to implement the steps contemplated by the Taiwan Plan, to the extent approved by Parent, in order to ensure that the Taiwan Plan can be fully effectuated as soon as practicable following the Closing.

(ii) In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that in the event the parties are unable to formulate the Taiwan Plan in a manner whereby a restructuring of the Company and its Subsidiaries would enable the Merger to be consummated in accordance with the Laws of the Republic of China, the parties shall cooperate to arrange the sale of the Company’s Subsidiaries incorporated in Taiwan to a bona fide, credit-worthy third party unaffiliated with Parent, such sale to be conditioned upon, and become effective solely upon or after, the consummation of the Merger (such sale, the “Taiwan Divestiture”, and such purchaser, the “Taiwan Purchaser”). Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to identify and engage with any such Taiwan Purchaser and negotiate and execute any definitive agreements necessary for such Taiwan Purchaser to effectuate the Taiwan Divestiture, provided that Parent shall not be required to execute any such definitive agreements which are not on commercially reasonable terms. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate with Parent’s requests to consummate the Taiwan Divestiture, including meeting with and providing information about the Company and its business and operations to any Taiwan Purchaser.

(iii) Following Parent’s identification and engagement of a Taiwan Purchaser, and following written agreement with such Taiwan Purchaser on all material terms necessary to effectuate the Taiwan Divestiture with such Taiwan Purchaser, each in full compliance with the terms of this Section 6.2(h), Parent shall notify the relevant Governmental Authorities of the Republic of China of such actions and shall file for the approval thereof. In the event such Government Authorities provide written notice to the effect that (i) such Governmental Authorities do not approve the consummation of such Taiwan Divestiture on the terms so submitted or that such Taiwan Divestiture would be illegal in the Republic of China or (ii) such Governmental Authorities would not approve the Merger notwithstanding the consummation of such Taiwan Divestiture or the consummation of the Merger, notwithstanding the consummation of such Taiwan Divestiture, would be illegal in the Republic of China, such notice shall be deemed a “Taiwan Rejection Notice” hereunder.

(iv) Parent and the Company shall promptly advise one another of any communications to or from any Governmental Authority in connection with the implementation of the Taiwan Plan (including the Taiwan Divestiture), and shall provide one another with copies of any such communications to the extent they are in written form.

(v) Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain approval from the government of the Republic of China of the implementation and effectuation of the Taiwan Plan (including, if necessary, the Taiwan Divestiture) or confirmation that the Merger can be consummated in accordance with the Laws of the Republic of China, together with any other Taiwan Approvals.

The Company shall cause the Proxy Statement to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq. Parent and Acquisition Sub shall furnish in writing to the Company all information concerning Parent and Acquisition Sub as the Company may reasonably request in connection with the preparation and filing with the SEC of the Proxy Statement. If at any time prior to the Company Stockholder Meeting, any information relating to the Company, Parent or Acquisition Sub, or any of their respective directors, officers or other Affiliates, should be discovered by the Company, Parent or Acquisition Sub which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement, so that the Proxy Statement would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other, and an appropriate amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement describing such information shall be promptly prepared and filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by applicable Law or the SEC or its staff, disseminated to the Company Stockholders.

(b) Subject to applicable Law, the Company shall cause the Proxy Statement to be disseminated to the Company Stockholders as promptly as practicable (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) following the filing thereof with the SEC and confirmation from the SEC that it will not comment on, or that it has no additional comments on, the Proxy Statement.

(c) Unless the Company Board or any authorized committee thereof shall have effected a Company Board Recommendation Change, (i) the Company shall not file with the SEC the Proxy Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, and (ii) the Company shall not correspond or otherwise communicate with the SEC or its staff with respect to the Proxy Statement, in any such case referenced in the preceding clause (i) or (ii) without providing Parent and Acquisition Sub a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon or participate therein, as the case may be, and the Company shall consider all such comments by Parent in good faith.

(d) The Company shall advise Parent and Acquisition Sub, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of any receipt of a request by the SEC or its staff for an amendment or revisions to the Proxy Statement, any receipt of comments from the SEC or its staff on the Proxy Statement, or any receipt of a request by the SEC or its staff for additional information in connection therewith, and shall provide Parent with copies of all written correspondence between the Company and its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or the staff thereof, on the other hand, with respect to the Proxy Statement. The Company also shall provide Parent with copies of any written comments or responses to be submitted by the Company in response to any comments or inquiries from the SEC or the staff thereof and shall provide Parent a reasonable

-69-

opportunity to participate in the formulation of any written response to any such written comments of the SEC or its staff relating to the Proxy Statement. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to resolve all SEC comments with respect to the Proxy Statement as promptly as practicable.

(e) Unless the Company Board or any authorized committee thereof shall have effected a Company Board Recommendation Change, the Company shall include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement.

6.4 Company Stockholder Meeting.

(a) The Company shall establish a record date for, call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of the Company Stockholders (or any adjournment or postponement thereof, the “Company Stockholder Meeting”) as promptly as reasonably practicable following the date hereof for the purpose of voting to approve the Merger in accordance with the DGCL. Once the Company has established the record date for the Company Stockholder Meeting the Company shall not change such record date without the prior written consent of Parent, unless required by applicable Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall hold the Company Stockholder Meeting no later than 45 calendar days following the date the dissemination of the Proxy Statement to the Company’s stockholders is commenced; provided, however, nothing herein shall prevent the Company from postponing or adjourning the Company Stockholder Meeting:

(i) For sequential periods of up to five (5) Business Days each, if there are holders of insufficient shares of the Company Common Stock present or represented by a proxy at the Company Stockholder Meeting to constitute a quorum at the Company Stockholder Meeting;

(ii) For so long as the Company is required to postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting by applicable Law, order or a request from the SEC or its staff; or

(iii) For one time only, for up to three (3) weeks, if the Company Board or any authorized committee thereof shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel) that it is necessary or appropriate to postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting, including in order to (A) give Company Stockholders sufficient time to evaluate any information or disclosure that the Company has sent to Company Stockholders or otherwise made available to Company Stockholders by issuing a press release, filing materials with the SEC or otherwise (including in connection with any Company Board Recommendation Change), or (B) to enable the additional time to solicit proxies from Company Stockholders.

(b) Without the prior written consent of Parent, the approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Merger), and any matters related thereto, shall be the only matters which the Company shall propose to be acted on at the Company Stockholder Meeting.

-70-

(c) Unless this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with Section 8.1, the Company shall solicit from the Company Stockholders proxies in favor of the approval of the Merger in accordance with Delaware Law, submit the Merger for approval of the Company Stockholders at the Company Stockholder Meeting and, unless the Company Board or any authorized committee thereof shall have effected a Company Board Recommendation Change pursuant Section 6.5(b), use its reasonable best efforts to secure the Requisite Stockholder Approval at the Company Stockholder Meeting.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, and for the avoidance of doubt, unless this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with Section 8.1, no Company Board Recommendation Change shall obviate or otherwise affect the obligation of the Company to call and hold the Company Stockholder Meeting pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 6.4.

6.5 Company Board Recommendation.

(a) Subject to Section 6.5(c), the Company Board shall make the Company Board Recommendation.

(b) Neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall (x) withhold, withdraw, qualify, amend or modify in a manner adverse to Parent, or publicly propose to withhold, withdraw, qualify, amend or modify in a manner adverse to Parent, the Company Board Recommendation, (y) approve, endorse or recommend an Acquisition Proposal or (z) fail to recommend against acceptance of any tender offer or exchange offer for shares of the Company Common Stock within ten (10) Business Days after the commencement of such offer (each of clauses (x), (y) and (z), a “Company Board Recommendation Change”); provided, however, that a “stop, look and listen” communication by the Company Board to the Company Stockholders pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) of the Exchange Act, or any substantially similar communication, shall not be deemed to be a Company Board Recommendation Change.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, prior to the receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approval, the Company Board and/or any authorized committee thereof may make a Company Board Recommendation Change if and only if:

(i) (A) the Company has received an unsolicited, bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that constitutes a Superior Proposal and not involving a breach of Section 5.2(b);

(B) the Company Board and/or any authorized committee thereof shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that the failure to enter into a definitive agreement relating to such Superior Proposal would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Delaware Law;

-71-

(C) the Company shall have notified Parent in writing of the Superior Proposal, including providing Parent with the identity of the Person making such Superior Proposal and a copy of the then-current forms of all of the relevant proposed transaction documents related thereto, including definitive agreements (including financing agreements, if any) with respect to such Superior Proposal (a “Superior Proposal Notice”), provided that with respect to any amendment to the financial terms or other material terms of such Superior Proposal, Parent shall be entitled to a new written notice by the Company (a “Superior Proposal Amendment Notice”);

(D) if requested by Parent, the Company shall have made its Representatives available to discuss with Parent’s Representatives any proposed modifications to the terms and conditions of this Agreement during the period beginning as soon as practicable on the day of delivery by the Company to Parent of such Superior Proposal Notice or such Superior Proposal Amendment Notice, as applicable, and ending at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on, in the case of a Superior Proposal Notice, the fourth (4^th) day following the day of such delivery or, in the case of a Superior Proposal Amendment Notice, the second (2nd) day following the day of such delivery (provided that such two (2) day period shall be extended if applicable through the end of the original four (4) day period);

(E) the Company has during such four (4) day period or such two (2) day period, as applicable, negotiated, and caused its financial and legal advisors to negotiate, with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) with respect to proposed adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Superior Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal; and

(F) if Parent shall have delivered to the Company during such four (4) day period or such two (2) day period, as applicable, a written, binding and irrevocable offer to modify the terms of this Agreement, the Company Board and/or any authorized committee thereof shall have determined in good faith, after considering the terms of such offer by Parent, that the Superior Proposal giving rise to such Superior Proposal Notice or such Superior Proposal Amendment Notice, as applicable, still constitutes a Superior Proposal; or

(ii) (A) an Intervening Event has occurred;

(B) the Company Board and/or any authorized committee thereof shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that the failure to make a Company Board Recommendation Change in light of such Intervening Event would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Delaware Law;

(C) the Company shall have notified Parent in writing of such Intervening Event, including a reasonable description of such Intervening Event (an “Intervening Event Notice”);

(D) if requested by Parent, the Company shall have made its Representatives available to discuss with Parent’s Representatives the Intervening Event and any proposed modifications to the terms and conditions of this Agreement during the period

-72-

beginning as soon as practicable on the day of delivery by the Company to Parent of such Intervening Event Notice and ending at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the fourth (4^th) day following the day of such delivery;

(E) the Company has during such four (4) day period negotiated, and caused its financial and legal advisors to negotiate, with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) with respect to proposed adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that the failure to make such Company Board Recommendation Change is no longer a breach of the Company Board’s fiduciary duties; and

(F) if Parent shall have delivered to the Company during such four (4) day period a written and binding offer to modify the terms of this Agreement, the Company Board and/or any authorized committee thereof shall have determined in good faith, after considering the terms of such offer by Parent, that the failure to make a Company Board Recommendation Change in light of such Intervening Event would still be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Delaware Law.

(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company Board and/or any authorized committee thereof from (i) taking and disclosing to the Company Stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) under the Exchange Act or complying with the provisions of Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act, and (ii) making any disclosure to the Company Stockholders that the Company Board and/or any authorized committee thereof determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that the failure to make such disclosure would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Company Stockholders under Delaware Law; provided that, (x) clause (ii) of this Section 6.5(d) shall not in and of itself be deemed to permit the Company Board and/or any authorized committee thereof to make a Company Board Recommendation Change that would not otherwise be permitted pursuant to this Section 6.5, and (y) in either such case, any such statement(s) or disclosures made by the Company Board and/or any authorized committee thereof will be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the provisions of Section 6.5 and Article VIII.

6.6 Public Statements and Disclosure. The initial press release with respect to the execution and delivery of this Agreement shall be a joint press release to be reasonably agreed upon by Parent and the Company. None of the Company, on the one hand, or Parent and Acquisition Sub, on the other hand, shall issue any public release or make any public announcement concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except as such release or announcement may be required by applicable Law or the rules or regulations of any applicable United States securities exchange or regulatory or Governmental Authority to which the relevant party is subject or submits, wherever situated, in which case the party required to make the release or announcement shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow the other party or parties hereto reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance (it being understood that the final form and content of any such release or announcement, as well as the timing of any such release or announcement, shall be at the final discretion of the

-73-

disclosing party); provided, however, that the restrictions set forth in this Section 6.6 shall not apply to any release or announcement made or proposed to be made by the Company in connection with an Acquisition Proposal, a Company Board Recommendation Change or Superior Proposal.

6.7 Anti-Takeover Laws. In the event that any anti-takeover or other similar Law is or becomes applicable to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Company, Parent and Acquisition Sub shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to ensure that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and otherwise to minimize the effect of such Law on this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

6.8 Access. At all times during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII and the Effective Time, the Company shall afford Parent and its financial advisors, business consultants, legal counsel, accountants and other agents and representatives reasonable access during normal business hours, upon reasonable notice, to the properties, books and records and personnel of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Company may restrict or otherwise prohibit access to any documents or information to the extent that (i) any applicable Law requires the Company to restrict or otherwise prohibit access to such documents or information, (ii) access to such documents or information would give rise to a material risk of waiving any attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other applicable privilege applicable to such documents or information, or (iii) access to a Contract to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or otherwise bound would violate or cause a default under, or give a third party the right terminate or accelerate the rights under, such Contract; and provided further, however, that no information or knowledge obtained by Parent in any investigation conducted pursuant to the access contemplated by this Section 6.8 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty of the Company set forth in this Agreement or otherwise impair the rights and remedies available to Parent and Acquisition Sub hereunder. In the event that the Company does not provide access or information in reliance on the preceding sentence, it shall use its reasonable best efforts to communicate the applicable information to Parent in a way that would not violate the applicable Law, Contract or obligation or to waive such a privilege, including, to the extent practicable, by providing such information in redacted form as necessary to preserve such a privilege or comply with such Law or otherwise make appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements, to the extent possible. Any investigation conducted pursuant to the access contemplated by this Section 6.8 shall be conducted in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries or create a risk of damage or destruction to any property or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Any access to the properties of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be subject to the terms and conditions of any applicable Lease and the Company’s reasonable security measures and insurance requirements and shall not include the right to perform invasive Phase 1 or Phase 2

-74-

environmental assessments or other invasive testing. The terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement shall apply to any information obtained by Parent or any of its financial advisors, business consultants, legal counsel, accountants and other agents and representatives in connection with any investigation conducted pursuant to the access contemplated by this Section 6.8. Nothing in this Section 6.8 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be construed to require the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any Representatives of any of the foregoing to prepare any reports, analyses, appraisals, opinions or other information.

6.9 Section 16(b) Exemption. The Company shall take all actions reasonably necessary to cause the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other dispositions of equity securities of the Company (including derivative securities) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each individual who is a director or executive officer of the Company subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

6.10 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) The Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) honor and fulfill in all respects the obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries under any and all (i) indemnification agreements between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and (x) any of their respective current or former directors and officers as of the date of this Agreement pursuant to the terms of such agreements as in effect as of the date hereof, and (y) any person who becomes a director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time and executes an indemnification agreement on terms no less favorable to the Company and no more favorable to such person than the current form of indemnification agreement with its directors that has been made available to Parent (the “Indemnified Persons”) and (ii) indemnification, expense advancement and exculpation provisions in any certificate of incorporation or bylaws or comparable organizational document of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in effect on the date of this Agreement. In addition, during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) cause the certificates of incorporation and bylaws (and other similar organizational documents) of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, exculpation and the advancement of expenses that are at least as favorable as the indemnification, exculpation and advancement of expenses provisions contained in the certificates of incorporation and bylaws (or other similar organizational documents) of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the date hereof, and during such six-year period, such provisions shall not be repealed, amended or otherwise modified in any manner adverse to the Indemnified Persons except as required by applicable Law.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 6.10(a), during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the

-75-

Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any costs, fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and investigation expenses), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to the extent such claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry arises directly or indirectly out of or pertains directly or indirectly to (i) any action or omission or alleged action or omission in such Indemnified Person’s capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates (regardless of whether such action or omission, or alleged action or omission, occurred prior to, at or after the Effective Time), or (ii) any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that if, at any time prior to the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, any Indemnified Person delivers to Parent a written notice asserting a claim for indemnification under this Section 6.10(b), then the claim asserted in such notice shall survive the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time until such time as such claim is fully and finally resolved. In addition, during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) advance, prior to the final disposition of any claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry for which indemnification may be sought under this Agreement, promptly following request by an Indemnified Person therefor, all costs, fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and investigation expenses) incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry upon receipt of an undertaking by such Indemnified Person to repay such advances if it is ultimately decided in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnified Person is not entitled to indemnification. In the event of any such claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry, (i) the Surviving Corporation shall have the right to control the defense thereof after the Effective Time (it being understood that, by electing to control the defense thereof, the Surviving Corporation will be deemed to have waived any right to object to the Indemnified Person’s entitlement to indemnification hereunder with respect thereto), (ii) each Indemnified Person shall be entitled to retain his or her own counsel, whether or not the Surviving Corporation shall elect to control the defense of any such claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry, (iii) the Surviving Corporation shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one separate counsel retained by an Indemnified Person (and reasonably acceptable to the Surviving Corporation), promptly after statements therefor are received, only if (A) the Surviving Corporation has not elected to control the defense of any such claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry or (B) an Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there are or are reasonably likely to be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Surviving Corporation, as the indemnifying party, or that there exists or is reasonably likely to exist a conflict of interest, in either case, that would make it inappropriate in the reasonable judgment of such Indemnified Person for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnified Person and the Surviving Corporation, as the indemnifying party, and (iv) no Indemnified Person shall be liable for any settlement effected without his or her prior express written consent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 6.10(b) or elsewhere in this Agreement, neither the Surviving Corporation nor any of its Affiliates (including Parent) shall settle or otherwise compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment or

-76-

otherwise seek termination with respect to any claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry for which indemnification may be sought by an Indemnified Person under this Agreement unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of all Indemnified Persons from all liability arising out of such claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry.

(c) During the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) maintain in effect the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance (“D&O Insurance”) in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, covering each person covered by the D&O Insurance, on terms with respect to the coverage and amounts that are equivalent to those of the D&O Insurance; provided, however, that in satisfying its obligations under this Section 6.10(c), Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall not be obligated to pay annual premiums in excess of three hundred percent (300%) of the amount paid by the Company for coverage for its last full fiscal year (such three hundred percent (300%) amount, the “Maximum Annual Premium”) (which premiums the Company represents and warrants to be as set forth in Section 6.10(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter); provided, however, that, if the annual premiums of such insurance coverage exceed such amount, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding the Maximum Annual Premium. Prior to the Effective Time, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company may purchase a six-year “tail” prepaid policy on the D&O Insurance provided that, without the prior written consent of Parent, the Company may not expend per year coverage in excess of the Maximum Annual Premium for such “tail” policy. In the event that the Company elects to purchase such a “tail” policy prior to the Effective Time, or the Surviving Corporation after the Effective Time otherwise elects to purchase such a policy, the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) maintain such “tail” policy in full force and effect and continue to honor their respective obligations thereunder, in lieu of all other obligations of Parent and the Surviving Corporation under the first sentence of this Section 6.10(c) for so long as such “tail” policy shall be maintained in full force and effect.

(d) If Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of its successors or assigns shall (i) consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Surviving Corporation shall assume all of the obligations of Parent and the Surviving Corporation set forth in this Section 6.10.

(e) The obligations set forth in this Section 6.10 shall not be terminated, amended or otherwise modified in any manner that adversely affects any Indemnified Person (or any other person who is a beneficiary under the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 6.10(c) (and their heirs and representatives)) without the prior written consent of such affected Indemnified Person or other person who is a beneficiary under the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 6.10(c) (and their heirs and representatives). Each of the Indemnified Persons or other persons who are beneficiaries under the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 6.10(c) (and their heirs and representatives) are intended to be third

-77-

party beneficiaries of this Section 6.10, with full rights of enforcement as if a party thereto. The rights of the Indemnified Persons (and other persons who are beneficiaries under the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 6.10(c) (and their heirs and representatives)) under this Section 6.10 shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights that such persons may have under the certificates of incorporation, bylaws or other equivalent organizational documents, any and all indemnification agreements of or entered into by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or applicable Law (whether at law or in equity).

(f) The obligations and liability of Parent, the Surviving Corporation and their respective Subsidiaries under this Section 6.10 shall be joint and several.

(g) Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.10 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under such policies.

6.11 Employee Matters.

(a) Following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) honor all Employee Plans and compensation arrangements in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time (as they may have been revised or consented to as contemplated by Section 5.1(b)(viii)), provided, however, that nothing in this sentence or otherwise in this Section 6.11 shall prohibit the Surviving Corporation or its Subsidiaries from amending or terminating, or from causing the Surviving Corporation or its Subsidiaries to amend or terminate, any such Employee Plans, arrangements or agreements in accordance with their terms or if otherwise required by applicable Law.

(b) During the one (1) year period following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) provide to Continuing Employees while they continue in employment employee benefits (other than any defined benefit or cash balance pension plan, deferred compensation, equity-based benefits, severance benefits, post-termination health, medical, or other welfare or life insurance benefits and individual employment agreements) that, taken as a whole, are no less favorable in the aggregate than the employee benefits (other than any defined benefit or cash balance pension plan, deferred compensation, equity-based benefits, severance benefits, post-termination health, medical or other welfare or life insurance benefits and individual employment agreements) provided to Continuing Employees immediately prior to the Effective Time. Base salary, cash bonus opportunity or regular wages as of the Effective Time shall not be decreased for a period of one (1) year following the Effective Time for any Continuing Employee who continues to be employed by the Surviving Corporation or an Affiliate during that period.

-78-

(c) To the extent that, following the Effective Time, employee benefits are provided under the employee benefit plans, programs and arrangements of Parent or one of its Subsidiaries (including the Surviving Corporation), and in which such Continuing Employees did not participate prior to the Effective Time (the “New Plans”), from and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries to, cause to be granted to such Continuing Employee credit for all service with the Company and its Subsidiaries and any predecessor employer (to the extent the Company and its Subsidiaries provide such past service credit) prior to the Effective Time, to the same extent as such Continuing Employee was entitled, before the Effective Time, for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting and, with respect to vacation, sick time or paid time off, accrual and severance pay entitlement); provided, however, that such service need not be credited to the extent that (i) it would result in duplication of coverage or benefits or (ii) employees who are similarly situated to the Continuing Employees are not provided with such service credit under such plan. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing; (a) each Continuing Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting period, in any and all New Plans to the extent that coverage pursuant to any such New Plan replaces coverage pursuant to a comparable Employee Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately before the Effective Time (such plans, collectively, the “Old Plans”); (b) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical, vision or disability benefits to any Continuing Employee, Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries to use commercially reasonable efforts to, (x) cause all waiting periods, pre-existing condition exclusions, evidence of insurability requirements and actively-at-work or similar requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents to the extent it would have been waived under the comparable Old Plan, and (y) cause any eligible expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents under a comparable Old Plan during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plan during the portion of the plan year prior to the Effective Time to be given full credit pursuant to such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan. Any vacation or paid time off accrued but unused by a Continuing Employee as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be credited to such Continuing Employee following the Effective Time.

(d) Prior to making any broadly distributed written or oral communications to the Continuing Employees pertaining to compensation or benefits matters that are affected by either (i) the Merger or (ii) the other transactions contemplated by the Agreement, the Company shall provide Parent with a copy of the intended communication, Parent shall have a reasonable period of time to review and comment on the communication, and Parent and the Company shall cooperate in providing such mutually agreeable communication.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, no provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to (i) guarantee employment for any period of time for, or preclude the ability of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or their Subsidiaries to terminate, any Continuing Employee for any reason; (ii) require Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Subsidiaries to continue any Employee Plan, New Plan, or other benefit plan, agreement or

-79-

arrangement, or prevent the amendment, modification or termination thereof after the Effective Time; or (iii) constitute the establishment or adoption of or an amendment to any employee benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement, contract, policy or arrangement or otherwise be treated as an amendment or modification of any Benefit Plan, New Plan or other benefit plan arrangement. No provision of this Agreement shall create any third party beneficiary rights in any employee of the Company or any Company Subsidiary, any beneficiary or dependents thereof, or any collective bargaining representative thereof, with respect to the compensation, terms and conditions of employment and benefits that may be provided to any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of the Affiliates or under any benefit plan which any of them may maintain, or otherwise.

6.12 Obligations of Acquisition Sub. Parent shall take all action necessary to cause Acquisition Sub and the Surviving Corporation to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

6.13 Notification of Certain Matters.

(a) At all times during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII and the Effective Time, the Company shall give prompt notice to Parent and Acquisition Sub upon becoming aware that any representation or warranty made by it in this Agreement has become untrue or inaccurate in any material respect, or of any failure of the Company to comply with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement, in any such case if and only to the extent that such untruth or inaccuracy, or such failure, would reasonably be expected to cause any of the conditions to the obligations of Parent and Acquisition Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby set forth in Section 7.2(a) and Section 7.2(b) to not be satisfied at the Closing; provided, however, that no such notification shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty of the Company set forth in this Agreement or the conditions to the obligations of Parent and Acquisition Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the remedies available to the parties hereunder; and provided further, that the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement shall apply to any information provided to Parent pursuant to this Section 6.13(a).

(b) At all times during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII and the Effective Time, Parent shall give prompt notice to the Company upon becoming aware that any representation or warranty made by Parent or Acquisition Sub in this Agreement has become untrue or inaccurate in any material respect, or of any failure of Parent or Acquisition Sub to comply with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement, in any such case if and only to the extent that such untruth or inaccuracy, or such failure, would

-80-

reasonably be expected to cause any of the conditions to the obligations of the Company to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby set forth in Section 7.3(a) and Section 7.3(b) to not be satisfied at the Closing; provided, however, that no such notification shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty of Parent or Acquisition Sub set forth in this Agreement or the conditions to the obligations of the Company to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the remedies available to the parties hereunder; and provided further, that the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement shall apply to any information provided to the Company pursuant to this Section 6.13(b).

(c) No investigation pursuant to this Section 6.13 shall affect any representation or warranty in this Agreement of any party hereto or any condition to the obligations of the parties hereto.

6.14 Certain Litigation. The Company shall promptly advise Parent of any litigation or other Legal Proceeding commenced after the date hereof against the Company or any Company Subsidiary or any of its or their directors (in their capacity as such) by any Company Stockholders or any holders of any capital or equity interest in any Company Subsidiary (on their own behalf or on behalf of the Company or a Company Subsidiary) relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and shall keep Parent reasonably informed regarding any such litigation or Legal Proceeding. The Company shall give (or cause the applicable Subsidiary to give) Parent the opportunity to consult with the Company regarding and participate in the defense or settlement of any such litigation or Legal Proceeding and shall consider in good faith Parent’s views with respect to such stockholder litigation, and no settlement or entry of judgment or other resolution of any such litigation or Legal Proceeding shall be agreed to or allowed without Parent’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

6.15 Financing.

(a) Each of Parent and Acquisition Sub acknowledges and agrees that prior to the Effective Time the Company and its Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives shall not be required to incur any liability to any Person under any financing that Parent and Acquisition Sub may raise in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any cooperation provided pursuant to Section 6.16 and that Parent and Acquisition Sub shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, on a joint and several basis, indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives from and against, and compensate and reimburse the Company and its Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives for, any and all losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses suffered or incurred by any of them in connection with the Financing, except in each case to the extent arising from the gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of any such Persons.

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of Parent and Acquisition Sub shall use, and shall cause their Affiliates to use, their respective reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things

-81-

necessary, proper or advisable to arrange and obtain the proceeds of the Financing as promptly as practicable on the terms and conditions described in the Commitment Letters, including using (and causing their Affiliates to use) their respective reasonable best efforts to: (i) maintain in effect the Commitment Letters, (ii) enter into definitive agreements with respect thereto as promptly as practicable on the terms and conditions contained in the Commitment Letters, which agreements shall be in effect as promptly as practicable after the date hereof, but in no event later than the Effective Time, (iii) satisfy, or cause their Representatives to satisfy, on a timely basis all conditions applicable to Parent, Acquisition Sub or their respective Representatives in such definitive agreements that are within its control, and (iv) cause the Sponsors, Lender and any other Persons providing Financing to fund the Financing at or prior to the Effective Time, including by enforcing (including by seeking through litigation to enforce) such Persons’ funding obligations (and the rights of Parent and Acquisition Sub) under the Commitment Letters and Financing Arrangements (as defined below) to the extent necessary to fund the Merger Consideration.

(c) Parent shall not agree to, or permit, any amendments or modifications to, or any waivers under, the Commitment Letters without the prior written consent of the Company if such amendments, modifications or waivers would reduce the aggregate amount of the Financing (including by changing the amount of fees to be paid or original issue discount of the Debt Financing), or impose new or additional conditions or otherwise expand the then existing conditions precedent to funding of the Financing at or prior to the Effective Time, if such new or additional conditions or such expanded existing conditions would reasonably be expected to (i) prevent or materially delay or impair the ability of Parent to consummate the Merger or (ii) adversely impact the ability of Parent or Acquisition Sub to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Commitment Letters. Parent shall not release or consent to the termination of the funding obligations of the Lender under the Bank Letter, except for assignments and replacements of an individual lender under the terms of or in connection with the syndication of the Bank Letter if applicable; provided, that such assignments or replacements would not prevent or materially delay or impair the ability of Parent to consummate the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(d) In the event that Parent determines that any portion of the Financing will not be available in the manner or from the sources contemplated in the Commitment Letters, (i) Parent shall promptly so notify the Company and (ii) Parent and Acquisition Sub shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to arrange and obtain, and to negotiate and enter into definitive agreements with respect to, alternative financing from alternative financial institutions in an amount sufficient to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement upon conditions not materially less favorable to Parent than those in the Commitment Letters, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event (and in any event no later than the Effective Time). The definitive agreements entered into pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 6.15(d) or Section 6.15(a) are referred to in this Agreement, collectively, as the “Financing Agreements.”

(e) Each of Parent and Acquisition Sub acknowledges and agrees that neither the obtaining of the Financing or any alternative financing, nor the completion of any issuance of securities contemplated by the Financing or any alternative financing, is a condition to the Closing.

-82-

(f) Parent shall (i) promptly furnish the Company complete, correct and executed copies of the Financing Agreements and any amendment, modification or replacement of any Commitment Letters or Financing Agreements promptly upon their execution, (ii) give the Company prompt written notice of any breach or threatened (in writing) breach by any party of any of the Commitment Letters or the Financing Agreements of which Parent or Acquisition Sub becomes aware or any termination or threatened (in writing) termination thereof, (iii) give the Company prompt written notice of any material dispute or disagreement between or among any parties to any Commitment Letter or any Financing Agreements that would reasonably be expected to result in a breach under the Commitment Letters or Financing Agreements, (iv) give the Company prompt written notice if for any reason Parent or Acquisition Sub has determined in good faith that it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Financing on substantially the terms and conditions contemplated by the Commitment Letters or Financing Agreements, (v) promptly furnish any additional information reasonably requested in writing by the Company relating to the circumstances in clauses (i) through (iv) of this Section 6.15(f)) and (vi) otherwise keep the Company reasonably informed of the status of its efforts to arrange the Financing (or any alternative financing).

6.16 Financing Cooperation.

(a) During the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII and the Effective Time, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives to, at Parent’s sole expense, reasonably cooperate in connection with the arrangement of the Financing as may be reasonably requested by Parent (provided that such requested cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries). Such cooperation by the Company shall include, at the reasonable request of Parent:

(i) agreeing to enter into such agreements, and to use its reasonable best efforts to deliver such officer’s certificates, as are customary in financings of such type and as are, in the good faith determination of the persons executing such officer’s certificates, accurate, and agreeing to pledge, grant security interests in, and otherwise grant liens on, the Company’s and its material Subsidiaries’ assets pursuant to such agreements as may be reasonably requested;

(ii) providing to the Lender financial and other information relevant to the Financing in the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ possession or that is reasonably available or that the Company or its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof in the ordinary course of business would have produced (and in accordance with the timeframe in which such information would have been produced) (including audited and unaudited financial statements as of and for periods both before and after the date hereof, provided that such financial statements shall be provided in a manner as is consistent with the Company’s existing practices), assisting in the preparation of

-83-

any pro forma financial information or projections, making the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ senior officers available at reasonable times and for a reasonable number of meetings to assist the Lender (including by way of participation in meetings, presentations, marketing sessions and due diligence sessions), and otherwise reasonably cooperating in connection with the consummation of the Financing;

(iii) using reasonable best efforts to obtain from the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ accounting firm accountants’ comfort letters and consents customary for debt financings, and assisting Parent and its counsel with information required for customary legal opinions required to be delivered in connection therewith and cooperating in obtaining any necessary valuations;

(iv) furnishing all documentation and other information about the Company and its Subsidiaries that the potential financing sources have reasonably determined is required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations;

(v) taking all corporate, limited liability company, partnership or other similar actions by the Company and its Subsidiaries that are reasonably necessary to permit the consummation of the necessary financing; and

(vi) using reasonable best efforts to cooperate with Parent to satisfy any conditions precedent to any the Financing to the extent within the control of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

Parent shall promptly reimburse the Company for any out-of-pocket expenses and costs reasonably incurred in connection with the Company’s or its Affiliates’ obligations under this Section 6.16(a).

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary:

(i) nothing in this Agreement shall require any cooperation to the extent that it would require the board of directors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to take any action or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Representatives, as applicable, to waive or amend any terms of this Agreement, agree to pay any commitment or other fees or reimburse any expenses prior to the Effective Time (for which the Company is not promptly reimbursed by Parent) or to approve the execution or delivery of any document or certificate in connection with the Financing (or any alternative financing);

(ii) no officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries who is not reasonably expected to be an officer of the Surviving Corporation shall be obligated to deliver any certificate in connection with the Financing and no counsel for the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be obligated to deliver any opinion in connection with the Financing; and

(iii) irrespective of the above, no obligation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under any certificate, document or instrument (other than the authorization letters referred to above) shall be effective until the Effective Time and none of the Company or any of

-84-

its Subsidiaries shall be required to take any action under any certificate, document or instrument that is not contingent upon the Closing (including entry into any agreement that is effective before the Effective Time or distribution of any cash by or to the Company that is effective before the Effective Time) or that would be effective prior to the Effective Time.

6.17 Escrows of Termination Fee and Reverse Termination Fee.

(a) Company Termination Fee:

(i) Promptly after the date hereof, and in any case within twenty (20) Business Days after the date hereof, the Company shall cause an amount in cash equal to the Termination Fee (such deposited amount plus any Additional Termination Fee deposited pursuant to this Section 6.17(a), the “Company Escrow Amount”) to be deposited in the Company Escrow Account in the United States with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as escrow agent (the “Company Escrow Agent”), which amount shall be held and released by the Company Escrow Agent, subject to the terms of an escrow agreement, which shall be in the form attached hereto as Annex B (the “Company Escrow Agreement”), as collateral and security for the payment of the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.3(b).

(ii) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to open and fund the Company Escrow Account as promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement. In connection therewith, Parent shall provide, as promptly as practicable following any request, all necessary information and documents requested by the Company Escrow Agent in connection with the creation and funding of the Company Escrow Account. The Company shall forward all such requests to Parent as promptly as practicable and shall facilitate communications between the Company Escrow Agent and Parent.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Company Escrow Agent informs the Company that is not or may not be able or willing to open the Company Escrow Account due to the identity or jurisdiction of Parent or any Sponsor, or the Company Escrow Agent otherwise has not opened the Company Escrow Account for funding and operation as contemplated by the Company Escrow Agreement within 20 Business Days following the date hereof, then the Company shall promptly notify Parent in writing (and in any event no later than one (1) day after the Company becoming aware that the Company Escrow Agent believes that it may not able to so act as escrow agent). The Company thereafter shall use its reasonable best efforts to deposit the Company Escrow Amount as promptly as practicable thereafter with an alternative escrow agent reasonably acceptable to Parent.

If the Company Escrow Amount is not timely deposited due to a failure by Parent to provide the required information requested by the Company Escrow Agent or, if applicable, an alternative escrow agent under Section 6.17(a)(ii), then the Additional Termination Fee shall not begin to accrue until Parent has provided such required information.

(b) As of the date hereof, Parent has deposited, or has caused to be deposited, an amount of cash equal to $11,381,090 (in RMB equivalent) (such deposited amount, the “DB Escrow Amount”) with the DB Escrow Agent at a branch of the Escrow Agent in the PRC, as collateral and security for the payment of the Reverse Termination Fee or the Taiwan Reverse Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.3(c), and which amount shall be held and released by the DB Escrow Agent subject to the terms of this Agreement and the DB Escrow Agreement; provided that the DB Escrow Agent shall release the DB Escrow Amount (together with any interest accrued thereon) on the Closing Date or on such other date as is provided in the Escrow Agreement.

Promptly following the date hereof, subject to receipt of any required PRC Overseas Investment Approvals, Parent shall form (or cause to be formed) a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware as a direct or indirect, wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent, which corporation shall be Acquisition Sub hereunder. Promptly following its formation, Parent shall cause Acquisition Sub to become a party to this Agreement as if an original party hereto by executing the Joinder substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex A and delivering such executed Joinder to the Company, and the Company shall execute a counterpart of the Joinder.

(e) Liquidated Damages. Each of the Company, Parent and Acquisition Sub acknowledges and agrees that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) each of the Termination Fee the Reverse Termination Fee and the Taiwan Reverse Termination Fee is not a penalty, but is liquidated damages, in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent and the Company, respectively, in the circumstances in which such fee is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision and (iii) without these agreements, neither the Company nor Parent would have entered into this Agreement; accordingly, if the Company or Parent, as the case may be, fails to timely pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 8.3 and, in order to obtain such payment, the Company or Parent commences a suit that results in a judgment against the non-paying party for the payment of any amount set forth in this Section 8.3, the non-paying shall pay the other party its costs and expenses in connection with such suit, together with interest on such amount at the annual rate of five percent (5%) plus the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date such payment was actually received, or such lesser rate as is the maximum permitted by applicable Law.

9.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the parties hereto as contemplated by or referred to herein, including the Company Disclosure Letter, the Annexes hereto, and the Confidentiality Agreement, constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, the Confidentiality Agreement shall not be superseded, shall survive any termination of this Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect until the earlier to occur of (a) the Effective Time and (b) the date on which the Confidentiality Agreement expires in accordance with its terms or is validly terminated by the parties thereto.

(b) The parties hereto hereby agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damages. Accordingly, the parties hereto acknowledge and hereby agree that, subject in all events to the limits of Section 8.3(c)(vii), in the event of any breach or threatened breach by the Company, on the one hand, or Parent and/or Acquisition Sub, on the other hand, of any of their respective covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, the Company, on the one hand, and Parent and Acquisition Sub, on the other hand, shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, by the other (as applicable), and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the other under this Agreement. Subject in all events to the limits of Section 8.3(c)(vii), the Company, on the one hand, and Parent and Acquisition Sub, on the other hand hereby agree not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by such party (or parties), and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of such party (or parties) under this Agreement.

9.9 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the Laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of law thereof.

9.10 Dispute Resolution.

(a) Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Commitment Letters or the Escrow Agreement or its or their subject matter (including a dispute regarding the existence, validity, formation, effect, interpretation, performance or termination of this Agreement) (each, a “Dispute”) shall be finally settled by arbitration. The place of arbitration shall be Hong Kong, and the arbitration shall be administered by the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (the “Centre”) in accordance with the Centre’s Administered Arbitration Rules in force when the notice of arbitration is submitted (the “Arbitration Rules”). The arbitration shall be decided by a tribunal of three (3) arbitrators. Each of Parent and the Company shall be entitled to nominate one (1) arbitrator. The third

-101-

arbitrator, who shall act as the chairman of the tribunal, shall be chosen by the two arbitrators nominated by the parties, respectively. Arbitration proceedings (including but not limited to any arbitral award rendered) shall be in English.

The award of the arbitration tribunal shall be final and conclusive and binding upon the parties as from the date rendered. Judgment upon any award may be entered and enforced in any court having jurisdiction over a party or any of its assets. For the purpose of enforcing this agreement to arbitrate, the parties irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of Hong Kong and waive any defenses to such enforcement based on lack of personal jurisdiction or inconvenient forum. For the purpose of enforcement of an award, the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waive any defense of inconvenient forum in any court of competent jurisdiction. For the avoidance of doubt, the arbitration tribunal shall be entitled to impose any remedy available under this Agreement at law or equity, including without limitation those remedies contemplated by Section 9.8.

Any agreement on the part of a party or parties hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party or parties, as applicable. Any delay in exercising any right under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right.

9.15 Counterparts.

(ii) Release to Party B:

In the event that (A) either the Reverse Termination Fee or the Taiwan Reverse Termination Fee (each as defined in the Merger Agreement) is payable by Party A to Party B pursuant to Section 8.3(c) of the Merger Agreement; and (B) Party A fails to pay Party B timely either the Reverse Termination Fee or the Taiwan Reverse Termination Fee in full in accordance with the Merger Agreement, Party B shall have the right to deliver the Party B Instructions to the Escrow Agent (with a copy thereof contemporaneously delivered by facsimile to Party A) requesting the Escrow Agent to release, with respect to the Reverse Termination Fee, 100% of the Escrow Moneys to Party B, and, with respect to the Taiwan Reverse Termination Fee, 50% of the Escrow Moneys to Party B (such notice, which shall include Party B Instructions that specify whether 100% or 50% of the Escrow Moneys is payable, the “Party B Release Notice”). Promptly following (and in any event no later than one (1) Business Day after) Escrow Agent’s receipt of the Party B Release Notice, the Escrow Agent shall send a copy by facsimile of the Party B Release Notice to Party A. Subject to the following paragraph, no less than ten (10) Business Days but no more than twelve (12) Business Days from its receipt of the Party B Release Notice, the Escrow Agent shall release either 50% or 100% of the Escrow Moneys to Party B as specified in the Party B Release Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, subject to the following paragraph, in no event shall any notice or written instructions from Party A be required for such Escrow Moneys to be released.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Escrow Agent receives, no later than ten (10) Business Days following its receipt of the Party B Release Notice:

1. a notice from the Party A objecting to the disbursement contemplated by the Party B Release Notice, together with

2. evidence from the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (the “Arbitration Centre”) (which may include a letter of acknowledgement or other reasonable evidence) that Party A has commenced arbitration
