This PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated as of June 7, 2019, by and among The Resilience Fund IV, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and The Resilience Fund IV-A, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (collectively, the “Seller”), Aerospace Newco Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Holdings”), EMCORE Corporation, a New Jersey corporation (“Parent”) and Ember Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Parent Sub”, and collectively with Parent, “Buyers”). Exhibit A contains definitions, or references to the definitions, of the capitalized terms used in this Agreement. Seller and Buyers are each referred to herein individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”

In consideration of the mutual covenants, conditions and agreements set forth in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, it is agreed as follows:

The closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”) will take place by electronic exchange of signature pages on the date hereof (the “Closing Date”).

On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, Seller agrees to sell, assign, convey, transfer, and deliver to Parent Sub, and Parent Sub agrees to purchase, all of the Transferred Interests, free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens).

1.3.1    The Cash Consideration, paid by Buyers to Seller (or as directed by Seller) at Closing by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with Seller’s wire transfer instructions; and

1.3.2    A number of shares of Parent’s common stock, no par value (“Common Stock”) in value equivalent to $3,000,000, with each share of Common Stock valued at the Market Price (the “Stock Consideration”).

1.4.1    Estimated Closing Statement. Attached hereto as Exhibit B, together with reasonable supporting detail, is a statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) reflecting Seller’s good faith estimates of (a)(i) the Closing Working Capital (the “Estimated Closing Working Capital”), (ii) the Indebtedness of the Transferred Company as of the Closing Date (the “Estimated Closing Indebtedness”), (iii) the Transaction Expenses of the Transferred Company (the “Estimated Closing Transaction Expenses”), and (iv) the Cash of the Transferred Company as of the Closing Date (the “Estimated Closing Cash”), and (b) Seller’s calculation of the estimated Cash Consideration (the “Estimated Cash Consideration”), calculated using the Estimated Closing Working Capital, the Estimated Closing Indebtedness, the Estimated Closing Transaction Expenses, and the Estimated Closing Cash.

1.4.2    Closing Statement. As promptly as practicable, but no later than sixty (60) days, after the Closing Date, Parent will cause to be prepared and delivered to Seller, together with reasonable supporting detail, a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth (a)(i) the Closing Working Capital and the Working Capital Difference, (ii) the Indebtedness of the Transferred Company as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Indebtedness”), and (iii) the Transaction Expenses of the Transferred Company as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Transaction Expenses”), and (iv) the Cash of the Transferred Company as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Cash”), and (b) Parent’ calculation of the Cash Consideration, calculated in accordance with the definition thereof. If Parent fails to deliver the Closing Statement within such sixty (60)-day period, the Estimated Closing Statement will be deemed to be the Closing Statement delivered by Parent pursuant to this Section 1.4.2.

1.4.3    Notice of Disagreement. If Seller disagrees with the calculations set forth in the Closing Statement delivered by Parent pursuant to Section 1.4.2, Seller may, within forty-five (45) days after receipt of the Closing Statement, deliver a written notice to Parent (a “Notice of Disagreement”) specifying in reasonable detail each item or amount that Seller disputes (the “Disputed Items”), the amount in dispute for each Disputed Item and the reasons supporting Seller’s positions. Seller will be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts contained in the Closing Statement that are not Disputed Items. If Seller fails to deliver a Notice of Disagreement within such forty-five (45)-day period, Parent’s calculation of the Closing Working Capital, the Closing Cash, the Closing Indebtedness, the Closing Transaction Expenses, the Closing Cash, and the Cash Consideration will be final and binding upon the Parties.

1.4.4    Resolution Period. If a Notice of Disagreement is duly delivered pursuant to Section 1.4.3, Seller and Parent will, during the thirty (30) days following such delivery (the “Resolution Period”), use commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the Disputed Items or amounts in order to determine the amount of the Closing Working Capital, the Working Capital Difference, the Closing Cash, the Closing Indebtedness, the Closing Transaction Expenses, and/or the Cash Consideration, as applicable. If Seller and Parent are able to reach agreement with respect to any Disputed Items, Parent will promptly revise the Closing Statement to reflect such agreement.

1.4.5    Independent Accounting Firm. If, upon the conclusion of the Resolution Period, or any mutually-agreed upon extension thereof, Seller and Parent are unable to reach agreement on all of the Disputed Items, they will jointly engage and submit the unresolved Disputed Items (the “Unresolved Items”) to the Independent Accounting Firm for resolution in accordance with the terms of this Section 1.4.5. The Independent Accounting Firm (i) will act as an arbitrator to determine, based solely on presentations by Seller and Parent and not by independent review, only the Unresolved Items, (ii) will make a determination with respect to the Unresolved Items only and in a manner consistent with the Accounting Principles and this Section 1.4, (iii) will use the definitions set forth herein with no consideration given to any modification or interpretation of such definitions, (iv) will be limited to those adjustments, if any, required to be made for the Closing Statement to comply with the provisions of this Agreement and (v) will make a determination of the Unresolved Items within the range of Seller’s and Parent’s disagreement. Each Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish to the Independent Accounting Firm such work papers and other documents and information pertaining to the Unresolved Items as the Independent Accounting Firm may reasonably request and will be afforded an opportunity to discuss the Unresolved Items with the Independent Accounting Firm at such hearing as the Independent Accounting Firm will request or permit; provided, that (y) each Party will provide the other Party with a copy of all materials provided to, and communications with, the Independent Accounting Firm and (x) no Party (or any of its Affiliates or Representatives) will engage in any ex parte communication with the Independent Accounting Firm at any time with respect to the Unresolved Items. The Independent Accounting Firm will deliver to Seller and Parent as promptly as practicable, and will be instructed to deliver no later than thirty (30) days after its engagement, a written report setting forth such calculation. Such determination of the Independent Accounting Firm will be final, binding and conclusive upon Seller and Parent (absent fraud or manifest error) and Parent will promptly revise the Closing Statement to reflect such determination upon receipt of such report. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm will be borne pro rata as between Seller, on the one hand, and the Parent, on the other hand, based on the proportionate deviation of the respective adjustment amounts for the Unresolved Items proposed by Parent and Seller, as set forth in the Closing Statement in the case of Parent and the Notice of Disagreement in the case of Seller, from the determination of the final adjustment amounts made by the Independent Accounting Firm.

1.4.6    Cooperation. Subject to any applicable privileges (including the attorney-client privilege and the work product privilege), from the date that Parent delivers the Closing Statement to Seller through the conclusion of the Resolution Period, Parent and Seller will, and will cause their respective Affiliates, Subsidiaries, independent accountants, agents or representatives to, reasonably cooperate and assist in the preparation and review of the Closing Statement and the calculation of the Closing Working Capital, the Working Capital Difference, the Closing Cash, the Closing Indebtedness, the Closing Transaction Expenses, and the Cash Consideration, including making available, during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice, books, records, work papers and personnel as reasonably requested.

(f)Promptly following such determination in accordance with this Section 1.4: (i) if there exists a Cash Consideration Reduction, Seller will pay, or cause to be paid, to Parent (or as directed by Parent) an amount equal to the Cash Consideration Reduction, in immediately available funds to an account identified by Parent in writing to Seller; and (ii) if there exists a Cash Consideration Increase, Parent will pay, or cause to be paid, to Seller (or as directed by Seller) an amount equal to the Cash Consideration Increase, in immediately available funds to an account identified by Seller in writing to Parent.

Parent and Parent Sub have relied solely on their own advisors and not on any statements or representations by Seller, the Transferred Company, or any of their respective Representatives, except for the representations and warranties of Seller in Article 2 and Article 3. Each of Parent and Parent Sub understand that it (and not Seller or its Representatives) will be responsible for any of Parent and Parent Sub’s legal and Tax Liabilities that may arise as a result of the Transactions.

4.11    Solvency.

Immediately after giving effect to the Transaction, Parent will be Solvent (as defined below). No transfer of property is being made, and no obligation is being incurred, in connection with the Transaction with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors of Buyer.

The term “Solvency” will have a correlative meaning. “Present Fair Salable Value” means the amount that may be realized if the aggregate assets (including goodwill) of Parent are sold as an entirety with reasonable promptness in an arm’s-length transaction under then-present conditions for the sale of comparable business enterprises.

The Common Stock to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement will, when issued, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

Since January 1, 2018, Parent has filed all documents (“SEC Documents”) required to be filed by it with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). As of their respective filing dates, the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act, and none of the SEC Documents contained any untrue statement of material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading except to the extent corrected by a subsequently filed SEC Document. The financial statements of Parent included in the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the then applicable accounting requirements and with the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, were prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto) and fairly present the financial position of Parent as at the dates thereof and the results of its operations and changes in financial position for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normally, recurring year-end audit adjustments). Since December 31, 2018, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition, results of operations, assets or business of Parent taken as a whole.

In addition, from and after the Closing Date, Buyers will, and will cause its Affiliates to, upon reasonable notice by Seller or its Affiliates to Buyers, (a) provide to Seller and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives reasonable access to their properties, information, data, books, records, employees and auditors to the extent relating to the Transferred Company with respect to any matter occurring prior to the Closing, (b) permit Seller and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives to make such copies and inspections of any such information, data, books and records as any of them may reasonably request, (c) make available to Seller and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives, the officers, employees and other Representatives of the Transferred Company and to provide reasonable assistance and co-operation in the review of information described in this Section 5.1.1, and (d) cooperate with Seller and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives, including by furnishing such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials or appeals and make available its respective employees as witnesses, to the extent reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection with any Proceeding arising out the Business, in each case other than with respect to any Proceeding involving disputes between Buyers, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand.

5.1.2    Anything to the contrary in Section 5.1.1 notwithstanding, (a) access rights pursuant to Section 5.1.1 will be exercised in such manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of the Business or any other business of the Party granting such access, (b) the Party granting access may withhold any document (or portions thereof) or information (i) that is subject to the terms of a non-disclosure agreement with a third party (provided that the withholding Party will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the required Consent of such third party to such access), (ii) that may constitute privileged attorney-client communications or attorney work product and the transfer of which, or the provision of access to which, as reasonably determined in writing by such Party’s counsel, constitutes a waiver of any such privilege (provided that the withholding Party will use its commercially reasonable efforts to allow for such access (or as much of it as is possible) in a manner that does not result in a loss of attorney-client privilege) or (iii) if the provision of access to such document (or portion thereof) or information, as reasonably determined in writing by such Party’s counsel, would reasonably be expected to conflict with applicable Laws or agreements with Governmental Authorities, (c) neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates or their respective Representatives will have any obligation to provide Buyers, its Affiliates or their respective Representatives access to any personnel records of Seller or the Transferred Company relating to individual performance or evaluation records, medical histories, or other information in personnel records to the extent that providing such access would constitute a breach of Law by any of Seller or the Transferred Company, and (d) the Party requesting access pursuant to Section 5.1.1 will reimburse the other Party promptly for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the other Party in connection with any such request made after the Closing.

Anything to the contrary in this Agreement notwithstanding, Buyers agree that (a) nothing herein will obligate or be construed to obligate Seller or any of its Affiliates to make, or cause to be made, any payment to any third party in order to obtain the Consent of such third party under any Material Contract and (b) neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates will have any liability whatsoever to Buyers arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain such Consent and no representation, warranty or covenant herein will be breached or deemed breached.

5.5.1    Non-Solicitation by Seller. During the two (2) year period following the Closing, neither Seller nor its Affiliates will directly or indirectly (a) hire, recruit or solicit any officers, directors or senior executives of the Transferred Company to become employed or engaged by any other Person or to terminate any such Person’s employment or consulting relationship with Buyers or, after the Closing, the Transferred Company; or (b) solicit, induce, encourage, facilitate, divert or appropriate any current or prospective customer, supplier, distributor of or other Person engaged in a relationship with the Transferred Company to compete with the Transferred Company in any Prohibited Activities or to terminate or alter its relationship with the Transferred Company or take away or reduce any business, patronage or orders from the Transferred Company; provided, however, that the foregoing will not prohibit (a) any general advertisements or solicitations of employment by Seller or its Affiliates and the hiring of any Person as a result of such general advertisement or solicitation or (b) Seller or any of its respective Affiliates from hiring any employee whose employment has been terminated with Buyers or any Affiliate of Buyers.

5.5.2    Non-Solicitation by Buyers. During the two (2) year period following the Closing, Buyers will not, directly or indirectly, and will cause the Transferred Company not to, hire, recruit or solicit any officers, directors or senior executives of Seller or any of its respective Affiliates to become employed or engaged by any other Person or to terminate any such Person’s employment or consulting relationship with Seller or such Affiliates, as applicable; provided, however, that the foregoing will not prohibit (a) any general advertisements or solicitations of employment by Buyers or their Affiliates and the hiring of any Person as a result of such general advertisement or solicitation or (b) Buyers or any of their respective Affiliates from hiring any employee whose employment has been terminated with Seller or any Affiliate of Seller.

5.5.3    Blue-Pencil. If any court of competent jurisdiction will, at any time, deem the term of any particular restrictive covenant contained in this Section 5.5 too lengthy or the scope too broad, the other provisions of this Section 5.5 will nevertheless stand, and the covenant, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, will be deemed reformed such that the term will be deemed to be the longest period permissible by Law under the circumstances, the geographic area covered will be deemed to comprise the largest territory permissible by Law under the circumstances and the scope will be as broad as permissible by Law under the circumstances. The court of competent jurisdiction in each case will reduce the term, geographic area and or scope covered to permissible duration, size or breadth.

5.5.4    Remedies. Seller represents that it is familiar with the covenants not to compete and not to solicit contained herein and is fully aware of its obligations hereunder. Seller further agrees that the length of time, scope and geographic coverage is reasonable given the benefits it has received hereunder. Seller further acknowledges and agrees that the covenants set forth in this Section 5.5 are necessary for the protection of Buyers’ business interests, including the goodwill and Confidential Information being transferred by reason of the Transaction, that irreparable injury will result to Buyers if Seller breaches any of the terms of this Section 5.5, and that in the event of an actual or threatened breach by Seller of any of the provisions contained in this Section 5.5, Buyers will have no adequate remedy at Law. Seller accordingly agrees that in the event of any actual or threatened breach by it of any of the provisions contained in this Section 5.5, Buyers will be entitled to seek injunctive and other equitable relief.

Buyers will promptly pay, or cause to be paid, the amount of any such Pre-Closing Tax Refund, including the amount of interest actually received thereon, to Seller upon receipt (or use) of such Pre-Closing Tax Refund by the Transferred Company or any of their Affiliates (it being understood that in the case of an election to use any such refund as a payment of, or a credit against, future Taxes, such refund will be considered to be used at the time such election is made).

5.6.4    Straddle Period. For purposes of this Section 5.6, the portion of Tax with respect to the income, property or operations of the Transferred Company that is attributable to any Tax period that begins on or before the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”) will be apportioned between the portion of the Straddle Period that extends before the Closing Date through the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Straddle Period”) and the portion of the Straddle Period that extends from the day after the Closing Date to the end of the Straddle Period (the “Post-Closing Straddle Period”) in accordance with this Section 5.6.4. The portion of such Tax attributable to the Pre-Closing Straddle Period will (a) in the case of any Taxes other than sales or use taxes, value-added taxes, employment taxes, withholding taxes, and any Tax based on or measured by income, receipts or profits earned during a Straddle Period, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Pre-Closing Straddle Period and denominator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period, (b) in the case of any sales or use taxes, value-added taxes, employment taxes, withholding taxes, and any Tax based on or measured by income, receipts or profits earned during a Straddle Period, be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the Straddle Period ended on and included the Closing Date, and (c) be borne and paid by Seller (to the extent not included in the Final Closing Working Capital). The portion of Tax attributable to a Post-Closing Straddle Period will be calculated in a corresponding manner.

Buyers, the Transferred Company and their Affiliates will not, with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (a) file any amended Return with respect to the Transferred Company or (b) take or advocate any position with respect to Taxes of the Transferred Company that reasonably could be expected to adversely affect Seller or that would have the effect of shifting income to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, unless, in each case, Seller will have

consented in writing to such action. Buyers, the Transferred Company and their Affiliates will not file any elections under Section 338 of the Code with respect to the acquisition of the Transferred Company.
