ARTICLE II

Effect of Merger on Share Capital

Section 2.1 Effect on Issued Share Capital. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Diodes, Merger Sub or the shareholders of the Company:

(a) Merger Consideration. Each ordinary share, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (a “Share” or, collectively, the “Shares”), including Shares represented by American Depositary Shares, each representing six (6) Shares (the “ADSs”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than the Excluded Shares, shall be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive US $1.33-1/3 in cash per Share without interest payable in the manner provided herein (the “Per Share Merger Consideration”). As each ADS represents six (6) Shares, each ADS issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than ADSs representing Excluded Shares, shall represent the right to receive US $8.00 in cash without interest payable in the manner provided herein (the “Per ADS Merger Consideration”) pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Deposit Agreement. At the Effective Time, all of the Shares, including Shares represented by ADSs and Excluded Shares, shall cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and the register of members of the Company will be amended accordingly. Each Share (other than each Excluded Share) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration without interest, each Dissenting Share shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the applicable payments set forth in Section 2.1(j), and each Share and ADS owned by Diodes shall be treated pursuant to Section 2.1(b). For purposes of this Agreement, “Excluded Shares” means, collectively, (i) Shares and ADSs owned by Diodes and (ii) Shares owned by holders of Shares who have validly exercised and not effectively withdrawn or lost their rights to dissent from the Merger pursuant to Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Law (the “Dissenting Shares,” and holders of the Dissenting Shares, the “Dissenting Shareholders”). In the event that the Company changes the number of Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Shares issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time as a result of a reclassification, share subdivision (including a reverse stock split), share dividend or distribution, recapitalization, merger, issuer self-tender or exchange offer, or any other similar transaction, the Per Share Merger Consideration, the Per ADS Merger Consideration, and any other amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.2 shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such change and as so adjusted shall, from and after the date of such change, be the Per Share Merger Consideration and the Per ADS Merger Consideration.

(b) Cancellation of Excluded Shares. Each of the Excluded Shares, other than Dissenting Shares, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist without payment of any consideration or distribution therefor, and the register of members of the Company will be amended accordingly. Each of the Dissenting Shares, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall

-3-

cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled in accordance with Section 238(15) of the Cayman Companies Law and shall cease to exist, in consideration for the right to receive the fair value of such Dissenting Share as provided in Section 2.1(j), and the register of members of the Company will be amended accordingly.

(c) Merger Sub. At the Effective Time, each share, par value US $0.001 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be converted into one fully paid and non-assessable share, par value US $0.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation. Such shares shall be the only issued and outstanding share capital of the Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Corporation shall make entries in its register of members to reflect the holder of shares of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time as the holder of shares of the Surviving Corporation after the Effective Time.

(d) Untraceable Shareholders. Remittances for the Per Share Merger Consideration shall not be sent to shareholders of the Company who are untraceable unless and until, except as provided below, they notify the Paying Agent of their current contact details prior to the Effective Time. A Company shareholder will be deemed to be untraceable if (i) such shareholder has no registered address in the register of members (or branch register) maintained by the Company or the Depositary, or (ii) notice of the Company Shareholders Meeting has been sent to such shareholder and has been returned undelivered. Any Company shareholder who is untraceable or deemed untraceable and who requests payment for the Per Share Merger Consideration subsequent to the Effective Time but within the time limits set forth in Section 2.1(h) shall be advised to contact the Surviving Corporation.

(e) Paying Agent. At the Effective Time, Diodes shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with a bank or trust company selected by it with the Company’s prior written approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) (the “Paying Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of Shares and ADSs, a cash amount in immediately available funds sufficient for the Paying Agent to make full and timely payments under Section 2.1(a) and Section 2.1(j) (such aggregate cash amount being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”). If a Dissenting Shareholder effectively withdraws or loses its rights to dissent from the Merger pursuant to Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Law with respect to any Dissenting Shares, (i) such Dissenting Shares shall cease to be Excluded Shares and (ii) Diodes shall make available or cause to be made available to the Paying Agent additional funds in an amount equal to the product of (x) the number of Dissenting Shares for which such Dissenting Shareholder has withdrawn or lost its rights to dissent from the Merger pursuant to Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Law and (y) the Per Share Merger Consideration. The Paying Agent shall invest the Exchange Fund as directed by Diodes prior to the Effective Time and by the Surviving Corporation after the Effective Time; provided that Diodes or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall not direct the Paying Agent to make any such investments that are speculative in nature. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall become a part of the Exchange Fund, and any amounts in excess of the aggregate amounts payable under Section 2.1(a) and Section 2.1(j) shall be returned to the Surviving Corporation in accordance with Section 2.1(h), and the Surviving Corporation or Diodes shall pay all charges and expenses of the Paying Agent. To the extent that there are any losses with respect to any such investments, or the Exchange Fund diminishes for any reason below the level required for the Paying Agent to make full and timely cash payments under Section 2.1(a) and Section 2.1(j), Diodes 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 Paying Agent to make such payments under Section 2.1(a) and Section 2.1(j), and the Surviving Corporation and Diodes shall in any event remain liable for the full and timely payments under Section 2.1(a) and 2.1(j).

-4-

(f) Exchange Procedures. Promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event within (x) five (5) Business Days in the case of record holders and (y) three (3) Business Days in the case of the Depositary on behalf of beneficial holders holding through brokers, nominees, custodians or through a third-party), the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Paying Agent to mail (or in the case of the Depository Trust Company, deliver) to each registered holder of Shares (other than holders of Excluded Shares) (i) a letter of transmittal specifying how the payment of amounts due from the Exchange Fund to registered holders of the Shares (other than holders of Excluded Shares) shall be effected, such letter of transmittal to be in such form and have such other provisions as Diodes and the Company may reasonably agree; and (ii) instructions for effecting the surrender of share certificates representing Shares (the “Share Certificates”) (or affidavits and indemnities of loss in lieu of the Share Certificate as provided in Section 2.1(i)) in exchange for the Per Share Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of a Share Certificate (or affidavit and indemnity of loss in lieu of the Share Certificate as provided in Section 2.1(i)) to the Paying Agent in accordance with the terms of such letter of transmittal, each registered holder of Shares represented by such Share Certificate and each registered holder of Shares which are not represented by a Share Certificate (“Uncertificated Shares”) (in each case, excluding any Excluded Shares) shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a check, in the amount equal to (x) the number of Shares represented by such Share Certificate (or affidavit and indemnity of loss in lieu of the Share Certificate as provided in Section 2.1(i)) or the number of Uncertificated Shares multiplied by (y) the Per Share Merger Consideration, and the Share Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be marked as cancelled. Prior to the Effective Time, Diodes and the Company shall establish procedures with the Paying Agent and the Depositary to ensure that (i) the Paying Agent will transmit to the Depositary promptly following the Effective Time an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the number of ADSs issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the ADSs representing the Excluded Shares) and (y) the Per ADS Merger Consideration and (ii) the Depositary will distribute the Per ADS Merger Consideration to ADS holders pro rata to their holdings of ADSs upon surrender by them of the ADSs. Pursuant to the Deposit Agreement, the ADS holders will pay any applicable fees, charges and expenses of the Depositary and government charges (other than withholding taxes if any) due to or incurred by the Depositary in connection with distribution of the Per ADS Merger Consideration to ADS holders. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable in respect of the Shares or ADSs. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Shares that is not registered in the register of members of the Company, a check for any cash to be paid in respect of such Shares may be issued to such transferee if the Share Certificates (if any) which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented such Shares are presented and surrendered to the Paying Agent, or in the case of Uncertificated Shares, sufficient documentation with respect to the ownership of such Uncertificated Shares by the transferee, accompanied by all documents reasonably required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable share transfer taxes have been paid or are not applicable.

(g) Transfers. From and after the Effective Time, no transfers of Shares shall be effected in the register of members of the Company. If, after the Effective Time, any Share Certificate is presented to the Surviving Corporation, Diodes or the Paying Agent for transfer or any other reason, such Share Certificate shall be cancelled and (except for Excluded Shares) exchanged for the cash amount in immediately available funds to which the holder of the Shares evidenced by such Share Certificate is entitled pursuant to this Section 2.

(h) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including the proceeds of any investments of the Exchange Fund) that remains unclaimed by the shareholders of the Company for nine (9) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation upon demand by the Surviving Corporation. Any holder of Shares (other than Excluded Shares) who has not theretofore complied with this Section 2 shall thereafter look only to

-5-

the Surviving Corporation for payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration to which such holder is entitled pursuant to this Section 2 upon due surrender of its Share Certificates (or affidavits and indemnities of loss in lieu of the Share Certificates as provided in Section 2.1(i)), or in the case of Uncertificated Shares, sufficient documentation with respect to the ownership of such Uncertificated Shares, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Surviving Corporation, Diodes, the Paying Agent, the Depositary, the Company or any other Person shall be liable to any former holder of Shares for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, bona vacantia, escheat or similar Laws. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by such holders at such time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity shall become, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, the property of the Surviving Corporation or its designee, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(i) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Share Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Share Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if reasonably required by Diodes or by the Paying Agent, the granting of an indemnity and/or the posting by such Person of a bond in customary amount and upon such terms as may be reasonably required by Diodes or the Paying Agent as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Share Certificate, the Paying Agent will issue a check in the amount equal to (x) the number of Shares (other than Excluded Shares) represented by such lost, stolen or destroyed Share Certificate multiplied by (y) the Per Share Merger Consideration.

(j) Dissenters’ Rights. No Person who has validly exercised such Person’s rights to dissent from the Merger pursuant to Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Law shall be entitled to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration with respect to the Shares owned by such Person unless and until such Person shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such Person’s rights to dissent from the Merger under the Cayman Companies Law. Each Dissenting Shareholder shall be entitled to receive only the fair value of such Shares owned by such Dissenting Shareholder as determined in accordance with the procedure in Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Law. The Company shall give Diodes (i) prompt notices of objection, notices of dissent, written demands for appraisal, attempted withdrawals of such notices or demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to the Cayman Companies Law that are received by the Company relating to Company shareholders’ rights to dissent from the Merger; and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to the exercise of dissenter rights under the Cayman Companies Law. The Company shall not, except with the prior written Consent of Diodes, voluntarily make any payment with respect to any exercise by a shareholder of its rights to dissent from the Merger, any demands for appraisal, offer to settle or settle any such demands or approve any withdrawal of any such demands.

(k) Termination of Deposit Agreement. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall provide notice to the Depositary to terminate the Deposit Agreement in accordance with its terms.

(l) Agreement of Fair Value. Diodes, Merger Sub and the Company respectively agree that the Per Share Merger Consideration represents the fair value of the Shares for the purposes of Section 238(8) of the Cayman Companies Law.

Section 2.2 Company Stock Options.

(a) The Company shall take such action, including providing any notices and obtaining any Consents, as shall be required:

(1) to effectuate the cancellation, as of the Effective Time, of all Company Stock Options that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (without regard to the exercise price thereof); and

(2) to cause each outstanding Company Stock Option upon such cancellation to represent as of the Effective Time solely the right to receive from Diodes, in accordance with this Section 2.2, a lump sum cash payment in the amount of the Option Consideration, if any, with respect to such Company Stock Option and to no longer represent the right to purchase Shares or any other equity security of the Company, Diodes, the Surviving Corporation or any other Person or any other consideration.

(b) Each holder of a Company Stock Option shall receive from Diodes, in respect and in consideration of each Company Stock Option so cancelled, promptly following the Effective Time, an amount (net of applicable taxes) equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of (A) the Per Share Merger Consideration over (B) the exercise price per share of the Shares issuable upon exercise of such Company Stock Option, multiplied by (ii) the total number of Shares issuable upon exercise of such Company Stock Option, without any interest thereon (the “Option Consideration”). The Option Consideration shall be delivered to the recipient thereof promptly following the Effective Time through (x) the Company’s payroll system or (y) if such recipient is not employed by the Company on such date, by check or wire transmittal, as elected by the recipient, or other means in compliance with the Legal Requirements of the jurisdiction where such recipient is subject to. In the event that the per share exercise price of any Company Stock Option is equal to or greater than the Per Share Merger Consideration, such Company Stock Option shall be cancelled without consideration therefor and shall have no further force or effect.

(c) As soon as reasonably practicable following the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall notify each Person who is a holder of a Company Stock Option regarding the treatment of such security pursuant to this Section 2.2, including a description of the payment, if any, for, and instructions for use in obtaining payment for, such cancelled security.

Section 2.3 Company Warrants. As soon as reasonably practicable following the execution of this Agreement (but no later than 30 days prior to the Effective Time), the Company shall notify the holders of warrants to purchase Shares (such warrants, the “Company Warrants”) regarding the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger. The holders of Company Warrants shall thereafter have up until the day before the Effective Time to exercise such Company Warrants, it being understood that (i) holders of Company Warrants who have exercised Company Warrants shall be issued Shares pursuant to the Company Warrants and treated pursuant to Section 2.1 of this Agreement and (ii) all outstanding Company Warrants that have not been exercised prior to the Effective Time shall expire at the Effective Time.

Section 2.4 Cancellation of Options, Warrants and Rights. Except as specifically set forth in Sections 2.2 and 2.3, any equity securities of any class of the Company, and any securities exchangeable into or exercisable for such equity securities (including options, warrants, calls, rights, commitments or Contracts obligating the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to issue, exchange, transfer, deliver or sell, or cause to be issued, exchanged, transferred, delivered or sold, additional shares of capital stock or other equity interests of the Company) and any security or rights convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any such shares or other equity interests, if any, shall be canceled and extinguished at the Effective Time. Subject to the review and approval of Diodes, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Company shall take all actions necessary to effect the provisions set forth in this Section 2.4, including without limitation any necessary amendments to any Contracts or other instruments and the delivery of all required notice, as applicable.

Confidential Information which, on the advice of the Receiving Party’s counsel, is legally required to be disclosed.

For the avoidance of doubt, any disclosure of Confidential Information required to be included by Diodes or the Company in its filings with the SEC as required by the applicable Laws will not be a violation of this Section 7.2.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that in no event shall the Company be obligated to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Diodes and Merger Sub agree that, upon any termination of this Agreement under circumstances where the Termination Fee is payable by the Company pursuant to this Section 9.6 and such Termination Fee is paid in full, Diodes and Merger Sub shall be precluded from any other remedy against the Company or its Subsidiaries, at law or in equity or otherwise, and neither Diodes nor Merger Sub shall seek to obtain any recovery, Judgment, or damages of any kind, including consequential, indirect, or punitive damages, against the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, managers, members, shareholders or Affiliates or their respective Representatives in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions contemplated hereby.

Any agreement on the part of a Party to any extension or waiver will be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by such Party. The failure of any Party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise will not constitute a waiver of such rights.

ARTICLE X

Miscellaneous

Section 10.1 Non-Survival and Representations and Warranties. None of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered under this Agreement will survive the Effective Time.

Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that Transactions are fulfilled to the extent possible.

-35-

Section 10.6 Counterparts; Facsimile Execution.

Nothing in this Agreement shall constitute an amendment to any benefit plan, and no benefit plan shall be amended absent a separate written amendment that complies with such plan’s amendment procedures.

Section 10.8 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 laws thereof (provided that the fiduciary duties of the Company Board, the internal corporate affairs of the Company, the Merger, and any exercise of dissenter rights with respect to the Merger shall in each case be governed by the laws of the Cayman Island).

Section 10.9 Dispute Resolution.

(a) All disputes among the Parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement will be resolved by mandatory, binding arbitration in accordance with this Section 10.9.

(d) Any arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 10.9 will be conducted in Hong Kong under the Arbitration Rules of the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law by arbitrators appointed in accordance with such rules.

The proceedings will be confidential and conducted in English. The arbitral tribunal will have the authority to grant any equitable and legal remedies that would be available in any judicial proceeding instituted to resolve a disputed matter, and its award will be final and binding on the Parties. The arbitral tribunal will determine how the Parties will bear the costs of the arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party will have the right at any time to immediately seek injunctive relief, an award of specific performance or any other equitable relief against the other Party in any court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction. During the pendency of any arbitration or other proceeding relating to a dispute between the Parties, the Parties will continue to exercise their remaining respective rights and fulfill their remaining respective obligations under this Agreement, except with regard to the matters under dispute.

Section 10.10 Specific Performance. The Company, Diodes and Merger Sub acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement required to be performed by any of the Parties were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. Accordingly, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by any Party of any covenant or obligation contained in this Agreement, the Company or Diodes shall be entitled to obtain, without proof of actual damages (and in addition to any other remedy to which such party may be entitled at law or in equity): (a) a decree or order from a court of competent jurisdiction of specific performance to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant or obligation; and (b) an injunction from a court of competent jurisdiction restraining such breach or threatened breach. The Company and Diodes each hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with any such remedy.

Section 10.11 Assignment.

Each of the parties hereto agrees that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 12 or in such other manner as may be permitted by applicable Laws, will be valid and sufficient service thereof. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such action or proceeding for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court or tribunal other than the aforesaid courts.

(c) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.
