Such Specifically Excluded Liabilities shall include all claims, actions, litigation and proceedings relating to any or all of the foregoing and all costs and expenses in connection therewith.

2.6 Payment of the Purchase Price. The Buyer and the Buyer’s Parent shall be jointly and severally liable to the Seller for the payment to the Seller of the Purchase Price (including the Deferred Payment). The Purchase Price shall be paid as follows:

(a) On the Closing Date, the Taiwan Buyer shall pay to the Seller an amount equal to the Taiwan Purchase Price (the “Taiwan Closing Payment”).

(b) On the Closing Date, the Asset Buyer shall pay to the Seller an amount equal to US Business Purchase Price minus the Indebtedness of the Seller related to the US Business and the Indebtedness of KTC, minus the Deferred Payment, minus the Escrow Amount (the “US Business Closing Payment”).

(c) On the Closing Date, the Buyer and the Buyer’s Parent shall pay over funds necessary to cause the Indebtedness of KTC and of Seller related to the Business to be satisfied in full as provided in pay-off letters in respect of such Indebtedness provided to Buyer prior to Closing, if any.

(d) On the Closing Date, the Buyer and the Buyer’s Parent shall pay to the Escrow Agent an amount equal to the Escrow Amount, to be held pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement (the “Escrow Funds”).

(e) On the date that is the third anniversary of the Closing Date, the Buyer and the Buyer’s Parent shall pay to the Seller an amount equal to the Deferred Payment. Any delay in making any or all of the Deferred Payment on such third anniversary date shall result in interest accruing on such delinquent amount at the rate of ten percent (10.0%) per annum, compounding monthly until paid.

(f) Any payments of cash pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be made by means of wire transfer of immediately available funds to accounts designated by the applicable party prior to the applicable payment date.

(g) No later than the date of execution of this Agreement, the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer a good faith estimate reasonably acceptable to the Buyer, of a consolidated statement of working capital of KTC and of the Seller with respect to the US Business as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Statement of Working Capital”), prepared consistent with the applicable Reference Calculation and in accordance with GAAP applied consistently with the Financial Statements furnished pursuant to Section 3.7. The “Closing Adjustment” shall be an amount equal to the difference between the Target Net Working Capital and the Closing NWC, determined consistent with the Reference Calculation. If the Target Net Working Capital is higher than the Closing NWC, then funds in the amount of the Closing Adjustment shall be paid to Buyer by the Escrow Agent from funds in the Escrow on the date that is two (2) Business Days following the Closing, and if the Closing Adjustment is greater than the Escrow Amount remaining after the payment contemplated in Section 2.6(h) below, then Seller shall pay such shortfall (the “Unpaid Shortfall”), but not until the final amount of such shortfall (if any) is confirmed following the post-closing review process set forth in Section 2.7 below. If the Closing NWC is greater than the Target Net Working Capital, then no payment associated with the Closing Adjustment shall be made at or around the time of Closing; rather, any such adjustment shall be paid over at the time of the closing of the Escrow following the post-Closing process set forth in Section 2.7 below.

(h) In addition, on the date that is two (2) Business Days following the Closing, funds in the amount of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) shall be paid to the Buyer by the Escrow Agent from the Escrow.

2.7 Adjustments to the Adjusted Purchase Price.

(a) During the ninety (90) calendar day period following the Closing Date, the Buyer shall have the right to review and audit the Closing Statement of Working Capital to confirm the accuracy thereof. If, after such review, the Buyer objects to the Closing Statement of Working Capital, the Buyer shall inform the Seller of that fact prior to the expiration of the foregoing ninety (90) day period, including a statement indicating the basis for its objections, and the Buyer and the Seller shall meet and confer in an effort to resolve such disagreement in good faith. With respect to Accounts Receivable, any item listed on the A/R Schedule that has not been paid as of the 90^th day following the Closing shall not be credited as an Account Receivable on the Final Statement of Working Capital (it being understood that if subsequent to that time Buyer receives payment on such receivable it shall promptly remit those funds to Seller). In addition, the Seller shall retain all rights to obtain collection for any Accounts Receivable not collected by the ninetieth (90^th) day following the Closing Date. The reserve for product warranty claims shall equal One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000). A failure of Buyer to timely object shall constitute Buyer’s acceptance of the Statement of Working Capital. Any agreed upon Statement of Working Capital shall be deemed a “Final Statement of Working Capital”.

(b) In the event the Buyer and the Seller are unable to resolve a disagreement with respect to a Statement of Working Capital within ten (10) Business Days following the date of the Buyer’s objection (or such longer period as the Buyer and the Seller may agree), resolution of such dispute shall be determined by a “Big 4” accounting firm not regularly utilized by either Buyer or Seller, or another independent firm of certified public accountants mutually agreeable to the Buyer and the Seller (the “Accountants”). If issues in dispute are submitted to the Accountants for resolution, (i) each party shall furnish to the Accountants such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Accountants may request and are available to that party, and shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the Accountants any material relating to the determination and to discuss the determination with the Accountants; (ii) the determination by the Accountants of the net assets and liabilities of KTC, or the Seller with respect to the US Business, as the case may be, as set forth in a notice delivered to both parties by the Accountants (also a “Final Statement of Working Capital”), will be binding and conclusive on the parties; and (iii) the fees and expenses of the Accountants for such determination shall be paid by the parties in inverse proportion to the outcome of the parties’ position with respect to the dispute over the Final Adjustment and shall be determined by the Accountants. The “losing party,” if any, as determined by the Accountants shall also pay the reasonable external legal and accounting fees of the “winning party,” if any, as determined by the Accountants in connection with the dispute.

(i) If the Closing NWC exceeded the Target Net Working Capital (such that no Closing Adjustment has been paid), then:

a) If the Final NWC is greater than the Target Net Working Capital, Buyer shall pay such difference to Seller; and

b) If the Final NWC is less than the Target Net Working Capital, funds in the amount of such difference shall be paid to Buyer by the Escrow Agent from funds on deposit in the Escrow, and if the Escrow has insufficient funds to make such payment then Seller shall pay the shortfall to Buyer.

(ii) If the Closing NWC was less than the Target Net Working Capital (such that a Closing Adjustment was paid two Business Days following the Closing as contemplated in Section 2.6(g)), then:

a) If the Final NWC is greater than the Closing NWC and (i) such difference is greater than the amount of the Unpaid Shortfall, Buyer shall pay to Seller the difference between the Final NWC and the Closing NWC LESS the Unpaid Shortfall, and (ii) if such difference is less than the amount of the Unpaid Shortfall, then Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the Unpaid Shortfall LESS the difference between the Final NWC and the Closing NWC;

b) If the Final NWC is less than the Closing NWC, funds in the amount of such difference shall be paid to Buyer by the Escrow Agent from funds on deposit in the Escrow, and if the Escrow has insufficient funds to make such payment then Seller shall pay the shortfall to Buyer.

In no event shall there be any double-counting of any items or adjustments associated with the foregoing process. All payments hereunder shall be due within five (5) days after the final determination of the Final Statement of Working Capital and if not so paid shall accrue interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, compounded monthly. After the payment of any such adjustment, all Escrow Funds remaining in Escrow shall be paid to Seller pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

2.8 Transaction Obligations. Subject to Section 2.12, all costs and expenses incurred by the Seller Group in connection with the transactions contemplated herein (including the Seller Transaction Fees) shall be the liability of the Seller.

responsibility for making its own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of any such estimates, projections or forecasts (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying any such estimates, projections and forecasts). The Buyer acknowledges that, should the Closing occur, the Buyer shall acquire the tangible assets comprising the Assets (or Assets as held by KTC) without any representation or warranty as to merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose with respect to such tangible assets, on an “as is” and “where is” basis, except as expressly set forth in Article III and IV and the Disclosure Schedules. The Buyer and Buyer’s Parent have no Knowledge that any of the representations or warranties made by the Seller as of the date hereof are untrue, incomplete or inaccurate. Nothing in this Section 5.7 is intended to modify or limit any of the representations or warranties of the Seller set forth in this Agreement.

In addition, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Seller agrees that from the date hereof to the Closing Date, except as otherwise consented to or approved by the Buyer in writing (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or as permitted or required by this Agreement or as required by Law, it will not, nor will it permit any other member of the Seller Group to:

(b) Other than as specifically contemplated by this Agreement, grant any severance or termination pay to or enter into (except as contemplated in this Agreement) or amend any employment agreement with, or increase the amount of payments, fees or other benefits to, any of the Business’ employees, officers or directors as required by Law or existing contract and other than salary increases and bonus payments to employees consistent with past increases and past bonuses.

(c) Amend or propose to amend any provision of the Taiwan Owner’s or KTC’s Charter (other than as contemplated by this Agreement); or, as applicable, split, combine or reclassify their outstanding capital stock or declare, set aside or pay any dividend or distribution in respect of any capital stock or issue or authorize or propose the issuance of any other securities in respect of, in lieu of or in substitution for shares of their capital stock or equity interests, or enter into any transaction that has the effect of providing any benefit to the Seller or their Affiliates or family members.

6.3 Current Information; Interim Events. Both parties hereto agree to confer regularly regarding the general status of the ongoing operations of the Business. If there is an event that occurs after this Agreement is signed, but prior to Closing that would be a breach of the representations and warranties of the Seller under Article III or Article IV or Buyer under Article V of this Agreement, then each party shall be required to notify the other party of that event. The impact of such notices on the parties rights hereunder shall be as set forth in Section 6.16. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Seller Group shall not be required to disclose any information to the Buyer or its Representatives if such disclosure would, in the Seller’s sole discretion, (i) jeopardize any attorney-client or other legal privilege, or (ii) contravene any applicable Laws, fiduciary duty or binding agreement entered into prior to the date hereof; provided, in each such case Seller shall inform Buyer that it has determined not to share such information, the reasons therefor, and the nature of such withheld information to the extent permitted without otherwise jeopardizing the attorney-client privilege or violating any applicable law, duty or agreement.

6.4 Access to Properties and Records. Each of the Seller Group shall permit the Buyer reasonable access to the properties with respect to the Business, and shall disclose and make available all books, papers and records relating to the assets, stock, ownership, properties, obligations, operations and liabilities, including but not limited to, all books of account (including the general ledger), tax records, minute books of directors and stockholders meetings, organizational documents, bylaws, material contracts and agreements, filings with any regulatory authority, accountants’ work papers, litigation files, plans affecting employees, and any other business activities or prospects in which the Buyer may have a reasonable interest and which relate to the Seller (to the extent related to the Business), the Taiwan Owner or KTC, or otherwise related to the Business, in each case during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice. Neither party shall be required to provide access to or disclose information where such access or disclosure would jeopardize an attorney client privilege or would contravene any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, decree or binding agreement entered into prior to the date hereof. The parties will use all reasonable efforts to make appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements under circumstances in which the restrictions of the preceding sentence apply. Following the Closing, Seller shall continue to make reasonably available to Buyer such records in Seller’s possession or control related to the Business that Buyer reasonably requests in order to satisfy Buyer’s regulatory, statutory, public disclosure or similar obligations.

6.5 Consents. The Seller will give (or as applicable, cause the Taiwan Owner or KTC to give) any notices to third parties, and will use its commercially reasonable efforts (or as applicable, cause the Taiwan Owner or KTC to use their respective commercially reasonable efforts) to obtain the Required Consents. Each of the parties hereto will give any notices to, make any filings with, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any authorizations, consents, and approvals of governments and governmental agencies that may be required to consummate the transactions contemplated herein in compliance with applicable laws. All filing fees and other charges for any and all required filings shall be borne by the parties as set forth in Section 2.12.

The parties will cooperate and consult with each other in the development and distribution of all news releases and other public information disclosures with respect to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby. Except as contemplated by this Agreement, no party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties, shall disclose to any Person the fact that this Agreement has been entered into or any of the terms of this Agreement other than (i) to such party’s advisors provided that such advisors will be informed of the confidential nature of this Agreement and will be directed to treat such information as confidential in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) as required to comply with applicable Law, rule, regulation or listing agreement of either party hereto.

6.8 Employees.

(a) Transferred Employees and Independent Contractors.

(i) On the Closing Date, the Seller shall terminate all of its employees employed in connection with the US Business (for avoidance of doubt, other than those employed by KTC) effective as of the Closing. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.8, commencing on the Closing Date, the Buyer shall offer employment, on an “at will” basis, to substantially all of the employees of the Seller (exclusive of those employed by KTC) who are “actively at work” in the US Business on the Closing Date (“Potential Transferred Employees”). Buyer shall have the right to exclude up to 3 employees as Potential Transferred Employees by delivery to Seller of a list of such employees no later than two Business Days prior to Closing. Potential Transferred Employees who accept such offers are, as of the time they first perform services for the Buyer, referred to herein as the “Transferred Employees”. The Buyer shall have no obligation of any kind to offer employment to any employee of the Seller who is not a Potential Transferred Employee.

(ii) For purposes hereof, “actively at work” means: (a) any employee who has averaged a minimum of thirty (30) hours per week in a permanent position in the three (3) months prior to the Closing Date; (b) any employee absent on the Closing Date due to the FMLA or similar state Laws; (c) any employee absent on the Closing Date due to maternity leave under the Seller’s applicable maternity leave policy; (d) any employee absent on the Closing Date due to military duty; (e) any employee absent on the Closing Date due to jury duty; and (f) any employee absent on the Closing Date due to vacation, or personal days consistent with the Seller’s applicable employment policies.

(c) Seller and Buyer Benefit Plans. Subsequent to the Closing the Transferred Employees shall be entitled to the benefits and coverages of such benefit plans, programs or arrangements (the “Replacement Plans”) as Buyer or its Affiliates may from time to time

maintain providing benefits substantially comparable in aggregate to those offered similarly situated employees and others of Buyer and its Affiliates generally. To the extent that service is relevant for purposes of eligibility, vesting, calculation of any benefit, or benefit accrual under any Replacement Plan, such Plan shall credit each Transferred Employee for service on or prior to the Closing Date that was recognized by the Seller for purposes of any comparable Employee Plan. In addition, any Replacement Plan which is a welfare benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA) shall waive any pre-existing condition exclusions or limitations, eligibility waiting periods or required physical examinations with respect to any Transferred Employee and their eligible dependents to the extent waived (or inapplicable) under the corresponding Employee Plan in which the applicable Transferred Employees participated immediately prior to the Closing Date and provide that any covered expenses incurred on or before the Closing Date but within the current plan year of the Replacement Plan by any Transferred Employee and their eligible dependents shall be taken into account by the Replacement Plan for purposes of satisfying applicable deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket provisions applicable for such plan year under the Replacement Plan. Buyer shall take such action or actions as may be necessary to enable each Transferred Employee to participate in a tax-qualified profit-sharing or savings plan incorporating a 401(k) feature (“Buyer’s 401(k) Plan”), with recognition of prior service to the extent provided herein and with effect immediately on and after the Closing Date. Buyer shall cause Buyer’s 401(k) Plan to accept as a direct rollover any distribution received by a Transferred Employee from Seller’s 401(k) plan which is made in cash or in the form of the distributee’s promissory note or notes. Buyer and Seller shall reasonably cooperate to facilitate any such direct rollovers of distributions to Transferred Employees from Seller’s 401(k) Plan as expeditiously as possible following the Closing.

(d) FMLA Information. Prior to the Closing, the Seller will provide the Buyer a list of (i) each employee related to the Business who is eligible to request FMLA leave as of the Closing Date and the amount of FMLA leave utilized by each such employee during the current leave year; (ii) each employee related to the Business who will be on FMLA leave at the Closing Date and his or her job title and description, salary and benefits; (iii) each employee related to the Business who has requested FMLA leave to begin after the Closing Date, a description of the leave requested and a copy of all notices provided to such employee regarding such leave.

(e) Vacation. All accrued vacation of the Transferred Employees shall be assumed by Buyer and Buyer shall credit all Transferred Employees for service time as of Closing on Buyer’s vacation policy. All vacation accruals assumed by Buyer shall be liabilities on the Final Working Capital Schedule.

(f) Communications. Neither the Seller nor any officer, director, employee, agent or representative of the Seller shall make any communication to employees of the Seller regarding any Buyer Benefit Plan or any compensation or benefits to be provided after the Closing Date without the advance approval of the Buyer.

6.9 Restrictive Covenants.

(a) Confidential Information. Except as may be required by law, rule or regulation, the Seller shall hold in confidence at all times following the date hereof all information it continues to hold with respect to the Business that is nonpublic, confidential, or proprietary information and related to the Business (“Confidential Information”). Confidential Information will not include any information related to the Business that: (i) is or becomes publicly available other than through acts of Seller in violation of this Agreement; or (ii) is rightfully received by the Seller from a third party without similar restriction from such party, and the disclosure of which by such third party does not constitute a violation of an obligation by such third party. If Seller is required by court order, subpoena or similar legal, regulatory or supervisory process to disclose any Confidential Information, Seller will give, to the extent practicable and permissible by applicable law or regulation, prompt notice thereof to Buyer to enable Buyer to seek a protective order or other relief or to grant its consent to the disclosure so required. If Buyer elects not to seek a protective order or upon consent from Buyer, Seller may disclose that portion, and only that portion, of the Confidential Information, which, in the advice of its legal counsel, it is compelled to disclose, and will exercise reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that the Confidential Information so disclosed will be treated confidentially.

(b) Noncompetition. The Seller hereby acknowledges that to protect adequately the interest of the Buyer in the business and goodwill of the Business, it is essential that any noncompetition covenant with respect thereto cover all of the Business on a worldwide basis (the “Territory”). The Seller together with its Affiliates, shall not, during the Noncompete Period, in any manner, either directly, indirectly, individually, in partnership, jointly or in conjunction with any Person, (A) engage in the business of providing, distributing or selling within the Territory products competitive with those provided by the Business, or (B) have an equity or profit interest in, advise or render services (of an executive, marketing, software development, research and development, administrative, financial, consulting or other nature) or lend money to any Person that provides, distributes or sells within the Territory products competitive with those provided by the Business other than with respect to the Seller’s minority passive investments in AWSC and WIN.

(c) Nonsolicitation. Other than members of the Board of Directors of Seller or of KTC, during the Noncompete Period, the Seller shall not, in any manner, directly, indirectly, individually, in partnership, jointly or in conjunction with any Person, with respect to the Business (i) (x) recruit or solicit or attempt to recruit or solicit, on any of their behalves or on behalf of any other Person, any Employee, (y) encourage any Person (other than the Buyer or one of its Affiliates) to recruit or solicit any Employee, or (z) hire any Employee, (ii) solicit any customer of the Business who is or has been a customer on or prior to the Closing Date for the purpose of providing, distributing or selling products or services similar to those provided by the Business or (iii) persuade or attempt to persuade any customer or supplier of the Buyer (or any of its Affiliates) to terminate or modify such customer’s or supplier’s relationship with the Buyer (or any of its Affiliates). If this Agreement is terminated prior to Closing, the Buyer will not, for a period of three years thereafter, without the prior written consent of the Seller, solicit (other than a solicitation by general advertisement) any person who is an employee of the Seller Group, at the date hereof or at any time hereafter that precedes such termination, to terminate his or her employment with the Seller Group. The Buyer agrees that any remedy at law for any breach by the Buyer of this Section 6.9(c) would be inadequate, and that the Seller Group would be entitled to injunctive relief in such a case. If it is ever held that this restriction on the Buyer is too onerous and is not necessary for the protection of the Business, the Buyer agrees that any court of competent jurisdiction may impose such lesser restrictions which such court may consider to be necessary or appropriate properly to protect the Business.

(d) Severability. In the event a judicial or arbitral determination is made that any provision of this Section 6.9 constitutes an unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable restriction against the Seller or other Person subject to such restrictions, the provisions of this Section 6.9 shall be rendered void only to the extent that such judicial or arbitral determination finds such provisions to be unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable with respect to such Person. In this regard, any judicial authority construing this Agreement shall be empowered to sever any portion of the Territory, any prohibited business activity or any time period from the coverage of this Section 6.9 and to apply the provisions of this Section 6.9 to the remaining portion of the Territory, the remaining business activities and the remaining time period not so severed by such judicial or arbitral authority. Moreover, notwithstanding the fact that any provision of this Section 6.9 is determined not to be specifically enforceable, the Buyer shall nevertheless be entitled to recover monetary damages as a result of the breach of such provision by the Person subject to these restrictions. The time period during which the prohibitions set forth in this Section 6.9 shall apply shall be tolled and suspended for a period equal to the aggregate time during which any Restricted Person violates such prohibitions in any respect.

(e) Use of Tradenames. Within thirty (30) days after the Closing, Seller shall cease all use of any trade names or trademarks comprising the Business Intellectual Property acquired directly or indirectly by Buyer hereunder.

(f) Injunctive Relief. Any remedy at law for any breach of the provisions contained in this Section 6.9 shall be inadequate and the Buyer shall be entitled to injunctive relief in addition to any other remedy the Buyer might have hereunder.

6.10 Consents to Certain Assignments.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any Transaction Document to the contrary, this Agreement and the Transaction Document shall not constitute an agreement to transfer or assign any Contract, asset, permit, license, claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if an attempted assignment thereof, without the consent of a third party, would constitute a breach or other contravention under any agreement or Law to which any member of the Seller Group is a party or by which it is bound, or in any way adversely affect the rights of the Seller or, upon transfer, the Buyer under such asset, permit, claim or right. The Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any consents or waivers required to assign to the Buyer any transferred Asset that requires the consent of a third party, without any conditions to such transfer or changes or modifications of terms thereunder. The Buyer agrees that the Seller Group shall not have any liability to the Buyer arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any such consent that may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Transaction Documents or because of any circumstances resulting therefrom.

(b) If any such consent is not obtained prior to Closing and as a result thereof the Buyer shall be prevented by such third party from receiving the rights and benefits with respect to such transferred Asset intended to be transferred hereunder, or if any attempted

assignment would adversely affect the rights of the Seller thereunder so that the Buyer would not in fact receive all such rights or the Seller would forfeit or otherwise lose the benefit of rights that the Seller is entitled to retain, the Seller and the Buyer shall cooperate in any lawful and commercially reasonable arrangement, as the Seller and the Buyer shall agree, under which the Buyer would, to the extent practicable, obtain the economic claims, rights and benefits under such asset and assume the economic burdens and obligations with respect thereto in accordance with this Agreement, including by subcontracting, sublicensing or subleasing to the Buyer. The Seller shall promptly pay to the Buyer when received all monies received by the Seller under such transferred Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder and the Buyer shall indemnify and promptly pay the Seller for all liabilities of the Seller associated with such transferred Asset.

(c) The Seller shall not take any action or suffer any omission that could limit, restrict or terminate in any material respect the benefits to the Buyer of such Non-Assignable Contract unless, in good faith and after consultation with and prior written notice to the Buyer, the Seller is (i) ordered to do so by a Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction or (ii) otherwise required to do so by Law; provided that if any such order is appealable, the Seller shall, at the Buyer’s sole cost and expense, take such reasonable actions as are requested by the Buyer to file and pursue such appeal and to obtain a stay of such order. Nothing in this Agreement or the Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall constitute a sale, assignment, transfer or conveyance to, or assumption by, the Buyer of the Non-Assignable Contracts without the consent of the Buyer. With respect to any such Non-Assignable Contract as to which the necessary approval or consent for the assignment or transfer to the Buyer is obtained following the Closing, the Seller shall transfer such Non-Assignable Contract to the Buyer by execution and delivery of an instrument of conveyance reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer within five (5) Business Days following receipt of such approval or consent.

6.11 Assignment of Permits & Licenses. The permits and licenses listed on Schedule 3.18(b) will be assigned to Buyer as part of the Assets. Certain of the permits and licenses may require governmental consent, notice or other authorization in connection with such assignment. Buyer and Seller agree that such consents, notices and authorizations will be handled on a post-Closing basis, and each of Buyer and Seller will reasonably cooperate to effect such follow-up consents, notices or other authorizations.

6.12 Indemnity Obligations. Following the Closing and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Closing Date, the Seller shall fulfill and honor the indemnification obligations of the Seller under (i) the Seller’s governing documents and (ii) the indemnification agreements with any current or former officer or director of the Seller set forth in Schedule 6.12, in each case, as in effect at the Seller on the date of this Agreement, for actions taken by any such person prior to the Closing. This Section 6.12 shall survive the Closing and shall be binding on the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

6.13 Confidentiality.

(a) Until the Closing, Buyer shall treat all non-public documents, materials and other information which Buyer shall have obtained regarding the Seller Group or their Affiliates or the Business during the course of the negotiations leading to the transactions contemplated hereby, the investigation of the Seller Group or their Affiliates or the Business, and the preparation of this Agreement, in accordance with the terms of the confidentiality agreement between Buyer and Seller, dated as of October 18, 2011 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), and, in the event the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not consummated, Buyer shall return or destroy all copies of non-public documents and materials which have been furnished in connection therewith in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. The terms of the Confidentiality Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference and shall continue in full force and effect until the Closing, at which time, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth therein, such Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate (and the Seller hereby waives the application of the Confidentiality Agreement to the extent necessary to effectuate such termination). If this Agreement is, for any reason, terminated prior to the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. However, nothing contained herein shall prohibit Buyer from using such documents, materials and other information in connection with any action brought or any claim asserted by a Seller Indemnified Party in respect of any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made in or pursuant to the Transaction Documents.

(b) From and after the date hereof, whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and representatives to, treat in confidence, and not use or disclose (except to the extent Buyer consents or as required by applicable Law), all documents, materials and other information regarding Buyer or its Affiliates which are in such Persons’ possession or control, and in the event the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not consummated, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and representatives to, return or destroy all such documents, materials and other information. If the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and representatives to, treat in confidence, and not use or disclose, all documents, materials and other information relating to the Business, the Buyer or its Affiliates. However, nothing contained herein shall prohibit Seller from using such documents, materials and other information in connection with any action brought or any claim asserted by Buyer in respect of any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made in or pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with Tax Returns or fulfilling any obligation of the Seller under the Transaction Documents.

6.14 Cooperation Following the Closing. Following the Closing, each party shall deliver to the other party such further information and documents and shall execute and deliver to the other party such further instruments and agreements as the other party shall reasonably request to consummate or confirm the transactions provided for herein, to accomplish the purpose hereof or to assure to the other party the benefits hereof. Following the Closing, Seller may receive funds from customers of the Business or other constituencies arising from the results of operations following the Closing or included as part of the Assets comprising the Business. In such event Seller shall promptly, and in no event later than two Business Days, remit such funds to Buyer together with any communications or notices accompanying such funds. In addition, if Seller receives any formal notices or communications from customers or other persons with respect to the operations of the Business post-Closing, Seller shall forward such notices or communications to Buyer and shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to provide such customers or persons with appropriate forwarding information.

6.15 Product Warranty/Return Claims in Excess of Reserve. The parties have agreed on a product warranty/return reserve of $150,000 in the Net Working Capital. If and to the extent Buyer experiences product warranty/return claims in excess of the foregoing threshold that arise from products shipped prior to the Closing Date, such claims shall be borne: (a) 100% by Seller if and to the extent such return or claim clearly arises from defective Epitaxy, (b) 100% by Buyer if and to the extent such return or claim is clearly not arising from defective Epitaxy, and (c) otherwise the parties shall discuss the matter and mutually resolve in good faith, but absent such resolution such returns or claims shall be borne 50% by Buyer and 50% by Seller.

6.16 Update of Disclosure Schedules; Knowledge of Breach. The Seller shall have the right from time to time prior to the Closing to supplement or amend the Disclosure Schedules and/or provide notice of events, facts or circumstances that may constitute a breach of representation, warranty or covenant, pursuant to the following provisions:

(a) If such supplement or notice relates to an event, fact or circumstance that occurred prior to execution of this Agreement, Buyer shall have the right to either (i) terminate this Agreement if such items constitute a Material Adverse Effect, or (ii) proceed to Closing and in connection therewith reserve all indemnity or other rights hereunder, unless Buyer had Knowledge of such event, fact or circumstance prior to execution of this Agreement, in which case Buyer shall have no indemnity rights hereunder with respect to any breach of which Buyer had Knowledge.

(b) If such supplement or notice relates to an event, fact or circumstance that occurred after execution of this Agreement, Buyer shall have the right to either (i) terminate this Agreement if such items constitute a Material Adverse Effect, or (ii) proceed to Closing and in connection therewith such supplement or notice shall be deemed to have cured any breach of representation or warranty, except such supplement or notice shall not constitute a waiver of remedies available to Buyer if such notice constitutes a breach by Seller of its covenants hereunder. Nothing in this Agreement, including this Section 6.15, shall imply that the Seller is making any representation or warranty as of any date other than the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date.

6.17 Use of Kopin Name. Promptly after Closing, Buyer shall cease use of the name “Kopin” in connection with its ownership and operation of the Business; provided however: (a) Buyer shall not be required to remove or cleanse the “Kopin” name from internal records; (b) to the extent the name “Kopin” appears on purchase orders, inventory, billing statements or other third party correspondence generated prior to Closing, Buyer shall not be required to remove or cleanse such references; and (c) Buyer shall have up to 120 days following Closing to remove “Kopin” from the full legal name of KTC and from the domain name used by KTC.

6.18 Notification of Certain Matters. Until the Closing, each party hereto shall promptly notify the other party in writing of any fact, change, condition, circumstance or occurrence or nonoccurrence of any event of which it is aware that will or is reasonably likely to (i) constitute a breach of representation or warranty by any party hereunder, including reasonable detail of such event; or (ii) result in any of the conditions set forth in Article VII of this Agreement becoming incapable of being satisfied.

6.19 Taiwan Issues.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, cash currently held by KTC in Taiwan in the amount of $ (the “Taiwan Cash”) shall remain held by KTC through the Closing and shall not be paid or distributed to Taiwan Owner or Seller. The Taiwan Cash shall be credited as a current asset on the Final Statement of Working Capital at the rate of $0.80 per dollar of Taiwan Cash.

(b) Per the Closing Statement of Working Capital, the related party receivable held by KTC against Seller equals $8,459,994, and the payable owed by KTC to Seller equals $2,004,880. Buyer hereby confirms that in connection with the transaction hereunder it shall assume Seller’s interest in such related party accounts. On an historical basis the KTC A/R should be approximately $500,000 above the associated related party payable, and as such satisfaction of these accounts at their current levels would result in approximately $6,000,000 in excess cash on deposit in KTC (the “Excess Cash”). Following Closing, Buyer and Seller shall endeavor in good faith to identify and implement the most tax efficient way to permit the distribution (whether by way of dividend, redemption, capital reduction or other payment mechanism) of the Excess Cash to Buyer. If, despite such efforts, Buyer’s election to clear such related party accounts and the ensuing distribution of Excess Cash results in Buyer being required to pay a withholding or other Tax in Taiwan arising from the distribution of such Excess Cash to a Taxing Authority, Seller shall reimburse and indemnify Buyer for the amount of such Tax at the time such Tax is remitted by Buyer to such Taxing Authority. All costs and expenses associated with efforts to identify, structure and implement any mechanism to eliminate or reduce any Tax arising from the distribution of the Excess Cash shall be borne by Seller. Any delay in such reimbursement shall accrue interest at the rate of 10% per annum, compounded monthly, from the date Buyer pays such Tax to the date Seller satisfies its reimbursement or indemnity obligation under this Section. Buyer shall not also be entitled to indemnity under Article VIII for any reimbursement made hereunder. The Dollar amounts set forth in this Section are from the Closing Statement of Working Capital and the actual amounts shall be as set forth in the Final Statement of Working Capital.

(c) In the event that Buyer is able to receive some or all of the Taiwan Cash without paying a Tax, the Buyer shall reimburse Seller the $0.20 per dollar reduction applied in Section 6.19(a) above with respect to the Taiwan Cash on the Final Statement of Working Capital.

(d) By the Seller, in the event any representation or warranty of the Buyer is determined to be false in a manner that would result in a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, a failure of the Seller to so terminate this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any claim arising therefrom if such breach arises from facts, events or circumstances occurring prior to execution of this Agreement, but shall constitute a waiver of remedies if arising from facts, events or circumstances following execution of this Agreement unless caused by a breach by Buyer of its covenants hereunder;

(e) By the Buyer in the circumstances described in Section 6.16 above; or

ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION

8.1 Survival. Each covenant or agreement in this Agreement shall survive the Closing without limitation as to time until fully performed in accordance with its terms. Each representation and warranty in this Agreement or in any certificate, schedule or other writing delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, and the Buyer’s and Seller’s right to seek indemnity for any breach of same, shall survive the Closing until the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date, except: (i) as to matters as to which an Indemnified Party has made a good faith claim for indemnity or given a good faith Notice of Claim on or prior to the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date, and for Section 3.10 until the three (3) year anniversary of the Closing Date which matters shall survive the expiration of such period until such claim is finally resolved and any obligations with respect thereto are fully satisfied; (ii) with respect to any misrepresentation or breach of warranty under Section 3.1 (Existence; Power and Authority), Section 3.3 (Subsidiary), Section 3.4 (Capitalization), Section 3.10 (Assets), Section 3.12 (Taxes), and Section 3.19 (Employee Benefit Plans), Section 4.1( Power and Authority), Section 4.2 (Authorization; Execution), Section 4.3 (Title) and Section 4.4(a)(i) or (iii), Section 5.1 (Existence; Power and Authority), or Section 5.2 (Authorization; Execution) and Section 5.3(a)(i) and (ii) (collectively, the “Surviving Representations and Warranties”); or (iii) any intentional misrepresentations, fraud or criminal matters, all of which items listed in (ii) or (iii) shall survive so long as the statute of limitations applicable to the matters set forth therein shall provide (giving effect to any waiver or extension thereof).

8.2 Indemnification by the Seller. Subject to the limitations contained herein, including without limitation the limitations set forth in Sections 6.10. 6.16, 8.5 and 8.6, the Seller hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Buyer and its Affiliates as an Indemnified Party (the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all

damage, loss, liability, fine, penalty, diminution in value, cost or expense (including, without limitation, expenses of investigation and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in connection with any action, suit or proceeding) (collectively, “Losses” it being understood that in no event shall any “material” qualifier in a representation or warranty be applied to reduce the amount of Loss suffered by Buyer arising from a breach of such representation or warranty) incurred or suffered by any of them arising out of, relating to or based upon:

(a) any Specifically Excluded Liability;

(b) any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Seller in this Agreement or the Transaction Documents executed by Seller, whether such representation and warranty is made as of the date hereof or as of the Closing Date;

(c) any breach of any covenant, agreement or undertaking made by the Seller in this Agreement or the Transaction Documents executed by Seller;

(d) non-compliance by the Parties with any applicable bulk sales Law; or

(e) any matter set forth on Exhibit 8.2(e).

8.3 Indemnification by the Buyer and the Buyer’s Parent. Subject to the limitations contained herein, each of the Buyer and the Buyer’s Parent hereby agrees, jointly and severally, to indemnify, defend and hold the Seller harmless from and against Losses incurred or suffered by any of them arising out of, relating to or based upon:

(a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Buyers in this Agreement or the Transaction Documents executed by a Buyer, whether such representation and warranty is made as of the date hereof or as of the Closing Date, including, without limitation, losses resulting from Buyer’s breach of Section 5.4;

(b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or undertaking made by the Buyers in this Agreement or the Transaction Documents executed by a Buyer; and

(c) any Assumed Liability, including without limitation any claim made by the landlord of the Leased Real Property against Seller arising from events, facts or circumstances following the Closing.

8.4 Procedures.

(a) The party seeking indemnification under this Article VIII (the “Indemnified Party”) agrees to give prompt notice (the “Notice of Claim”) to the indemnifying party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding by a third party in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Article VIII describing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to any claim of indemnification hereunder; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability or obligation hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party clearly demonstrates that the defense of any third party suit, action or proceeding has been materially prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such notice.

(b) If such Notice of Claim relates to a suit, action or proceeding by a third party (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnifying Party may upon written notice given to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days of the receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such Notice of Claim, assume control of the defense of such action, suit or proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not so assume control of such defense or if the Indemnifying Party fails to give reasonable written assurance to the Indemnified Party of the Indemnifying Party’s financial capacity to defend and/or provide indemnification as required hereby, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to control such defense. The party not controlling such defense may participate therein at its own expense. The Indemnified Party shall not be liable for expenses incurred after the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a third party claim as set forth herein; provided, however, that (i) if in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party assumes control of such defense and there exists a conflict of interest between the interests of the Indemnified Party and those of the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim, or (ii) if the Indemnifying Party shall fail to assume responsibility for such defense, the Indemnified Party may retain counsel satisfactory to it and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party shall be considered Losses for purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that the Buyer reasonably determines that a third party claim would materially adversely affect the Buyer’s ability to conduct the Business after the Closing Date (including, for example, if the Buyer reasonably determines, in connection with any such third party claim, that the Buyer’s ability to conduct a material portion of the Business may be enjoined), then the Buyer may, by written notice to the Seller, assume the exclusive right to control, defend, compromise, or settle such claim and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel shall be considered Losses for purposes of this Agreement. In all such cases, the Indemnifying Party will have the right to participate, at Indemnifying Party’s expense, in the defense or settlement of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer. The party controlling such defense shall keep the other party advised of the status of such action, suit or proceeding and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the other party with respect thereto. In any circumstance in which the Indemnified Party assumes the defense of any claim, the Indemnifying Party shall only be responsible for the costs and expenses of one counsel representing the interests of the Indemnified Party.

(c) The Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of any action, suit or proceeding without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. For purposes hereof, the Indemnified Party’s withholding of its consent to any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a complete irrevocable release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation or which requires action (or limits action) other than the payment of money by the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to be reasonable.

(d) In the event that an Indemnified Party seeks indemnification for Losses pursuant to this Article VIII, the procedures in this subsection (d) shall also apply. Within ninety (90) days after delivery of a Notice of Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall provide to the Indemnified Party a written response (the “Response Notice”) in which the Indemnifying Party must either: (i) agree that some or all of the Losses claimed should be indemnified and, in the case of any Losses claimed and not so agreed to, contest such claimed amount, or (ii) contest all of the Losses claimed. The Indemnifying Party may contest such claimed amount of Losses only based upon a good faith belief that all or such portion of such claimed amount does not constitute Losses for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder. If no such Response Notice is delivered by the Indemnifying Party within such ninety (90)-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have agreed that all of the claimed amount should be indemnified. Any such amount agreed to, or so deemed to be agreed to, by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of this subsection (d) or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement being referred to herein as an “Agreed Amount.”

(e) If the Indemnifying Party in the Response Notice contests all or part of the claimed amount (thereupon, the “Contested Amount”), the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall attempt promptly and in good faith to agree upon the rights of the parties with respect to the Contested Amount. If the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties and, if such agreement provides that all or a portion of the Contested Amount is to be paid to the Indemnified Party (all or such portion of such Contested Amount to be so paid to the Indemnified Party being also referred to herein as an “Agreed Amount”), the Indemnifying Party shall make such payments in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation within thirty (30) days of the delivery of the Indemnifying Party Response Notice (or such longer period as the Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party may mutually agree), the matter shall be settled in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions of Section 10.11 of this Agreement.

8.5 Limitations on Indemnification; Exclusive Remedy. The parties’ liability under this Article VIII shall be limited as follows (except as provided in Section 8.5(e)):

(a) Threshold. Except as set forth in Section 8.5(e) below, the Seller shall not have any liability for any claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2(b) unless and until the total aggregate cumulative Losses suffered by the Indemnified Parties exceed Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars, ($250,000) (the “Threshold”) but upon achievement of the Threshold the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover the full amount of such Losses (including the initial Threshold amount).

(b) Maximum Seller Liability.

(i) Except as set forth in Section 8.5(e) below, the aggregate maximum liability of the Seller for money damages for Losses under Section 8.2(b) of this Agreement or for any other breach of this Agreement, shall be limited to Eight Million Four Hundred Thirty Seven Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($8,437,500);

(ii) the Seller shall not be obligated to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party with respect to any Loss to the extent that a specific accrual or reserve for the amount of such Loss was reflected on the Final Statement of Working Capital;

(iii) the Seller shall not be obligated to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party with respect to any Loss to the extent that the Buyer received a benefit from the reflection of such matter in the calculation of the adjustment of the Purchase Price, if any;

(iv) no party hereto shall have any liability under any provision of this Agreement for any punitive damages relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement; and

(v) subject to the provisions of Section 6.16, if the Buyer or Buyer’s Parent proceeds with the Closing notwithstanding Knowledge by the Buyer at or prior to the Closing of any breach by the Seller of any representation or warranty in this Agreement, no Buyer Indemnified Party shall have any claim or recourse against the Seller or any of its Affiliates or Representatives with respect to such breach, under this Article VIII or otherwise.

(c) Maximum Buyer and Buyer’s Parent Liability. Except as set forth in Section 8.5(e) below, the aggregate maximum liability of the Buyer and Buyer’s Parent for money damages for indemnified Losses under Section 8.3 shall equal Eight Million Four Hundred Thirty Seven Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($8,437,500), not including any damages relating to any failure to pay Seller the Purchase Price, including the Deferred Payment.

(d) No Right to Offset. THE BUYER AND BUYER’S PARENT ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT, THEIR OBLIGATION TO PAY TO THE SELLER THE DEFERRED PAYMENT ON THE DUE DATE APPLICABLE THERETO, IS ABSOLUTE AND UNCONDITIONAL AND SHALL NOT BE AFFECTED, LIMITED OR IMPAIRED BY ANY EVENT, OCCURRENCE OR CIRCUMSTANCE WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION:

(i) ANY DAMAGE OR LOSS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT; OR

(ii) ANY DEFENSE, CLAIM, OFFSET, COUNTERCLAIM, SET-OFF, RECOUPMENT OR ABATEMENT WHICH THE COMPANY MAY HAVE AGAINST ANY MEMBER OF THE SELLER GROUP OR ANY OTHER PERSON WHETHER BY CONTRACT, STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER THEORY OF LAW OR AT EQUITY; OR

(iii) ANY OTHER EVENT, OCCURRENCE OR CIRCUMSTANCE WHATSOEVER WHICH MIGHT LIMIT, REDUCE OR EXCUSE THE OBLIGATION OF THE BUYER OR BUYER’S PARENT.

THE BUYER AND BUYER’S PARENT AGREE THAT NONE OF THE FOREGOING SHALL (A) GIVE RISE TO ANY DEFENSE, COUNTERCLAIM, OR RIGHT OF SET-OFF AGAINST ANY MEMBER OF THE SELLER GROUP, OR (B) PERMIT ANY RECOUPMENT OR ABATEMENT OF, OR REDUCTION IN THE DEFERRED PAYMENT OR (C) RELIEVE THE BUYER AND BUYER’S PARENT, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OF THE PERFORMANCE OF ITS OBLIGATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT TO PAY TO THE SELLER AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE FULL AMOUNT ON THE DEFERRED PAYMENT.

(e) Exceptions. None of the limitations or other provisions set forth in Sections 8.5(a) through (d) (and specifically excluding Section 8.5(d)) shall apply in the case of any Losses or other indemnification matter based upon, arising out of, or relating to (i) intentional misrepresentations, fraud or criminal matters, which shall not be capped or limited, or (ii) the Surviving Representations and Warranties or other indemnity obligations set forth in Section 8.2 in the case of the Seller or Section 8.3 in the case of the Buyer and Buyer Parent, which shall be limited to an equal amount to the Purchase Price actually received by Seller.

(f) Computation of Losses. The amount of any Losses or Taxes for which indemnification is provided for under this Article VIII or under Section 9.2, respectively, shall be net of (i) any amounts recovered by a Buyer Indemnified Party or its Affiliates as a result of any indemnification by any third party, (ii) any actual Tax Benefit received by any Buyer Indemnified Party, its Affiliates, the Taiwan Owner, or KTC as a result of such Losses or by reason of the fact(s) or matter(s) from which such Losses result or arise as reasonably computed by Buyer and (iii) any insurance proceeds or other amounts received by a Buyer Indemnified Party or its Affiliates from third parties with respect to such Losses. For purposes of this Section 8.5(f), “Tax Benefit” means the amount by which Buyer’s cash payment for Taxes are actually reduced, that would not have been reduced but-for the Loss giving rise to the indemnity payment. If in such year the Loss giving rise to the indemnity payment does not result in a reduced cash payment for Taxes, but rather results in revised Tax attributes that could benefit Buyer at some point in the future (for example, increased net operating losses available in future years), Buyer shall remit to Seller the Tax Benefit associated with the utilization of such Tax attribute in the year utilized (if utilized), it being understood that (i) such Tax attributes will be applied in the ordinary and customary basis as determined in the reasonable discretion of Buyer, (ii) in the event such Tax attributes expire then no such payment shall be made, and (iii) if the Tax attributes result in increased Tax cost to Buyer (e.g., a lower basis in the assets acquired hereunder), then the reasonably estimated present value of such increased Tax cost may be applied by Buyer against any Tax Benefit otherwise recognized by Buyer in connection with any payment by Buyer hereunder. The parties will reasonably cooperate to effect the foregoing.

(g) Character of Indemnity Payments. All amounts paid pursuant to this Article VIII shall be treated by such parties as adjustments to the Purchase Price.

8.6 Exclusive Remedy. After the Closing, the indemnities provided in this Article VIII shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of any Indemnified Party for damages arising out of, resulting from or incurred in connection with any claims in this Agreement; provided, however, that this exclusive remedy for damages does not preclude a Party from bringing an action for specific performance or other equitable remedy to require a Party to perform its covenants or other obligations under this Agreement.

8.7 Assignment of Claims. If any Buyer Indemnified Party receives any payment from the Seller in respect of any Losses pursuant to Section 8.2 or claims against the Escrow under Section 2.7 and the Buyer or Buyer Indemnified Party could have recovered all or a part of such Losses from a third party (a “Potential Contributor”) based on the underlying claim asserted against the Seller, the Buyer Indemnified Party shall assign, on a non-recourse basis and without any representation or warranty, such of its rights to proceed against the Potential

Contributor as are necessary to permit the Seller to recover from the Potential Contributor the amount of such payment. If any such assignment would afford the Potential Contributor any defense to the payment of the same, such assignment shall not take place and the Buyer Indemnified Party will, at the Seller’s direction and expense, take all reasonable actions to seek to recover such claim from such Potential Contributor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Potential Contributor is a continuing customer or supplier to the Business, Buyer may in its sole discretion elect not to assign such claim to Seller, or if applicable, not to pursue such claim, other than in connection with any warranties or product returns as set forth in Section 6.5. Any payment received in respect of such claim against the Potential Contributor (whether by the Seller or the relevant Buyer Indemnified Party as provided earlier in this section) shall be distributed, (i) first, to the Buyer Indemnified Party in the amount of any deductible or similar amount required to be paid by the Buyer Indemnified Party prior to the Seller being required to make any payment to the Buyer Indemnified Party plus, in the case of any claim by a Buyer Indemnified Party as provided above, the costs and expenses incurred in investigating, prosecuting, defending or otherwise addressing such claim, (ii) second, to the Seller in an amount equal to the aggregate payments made by the Seller to the Buyer Indemnified Party in respect of such claim, plus the costs and expenses incurred in investigating, prosecuting, defending or otherwise addressing such claim and (iii) the balance, if any, to the Buyer Indemnified Party.

8.8 Seller’s Insurance. To the extent an Assumed Liability relates to facts, events or circumstances that occurred or existed prior to Closing and for which an insurance policy issued to Seller provides coverage for such claim, Seller covenants it shall tender such claim to any applicable insurer and take commercially reasonable steps to cause such insurer(s) to acknowledge and provide coverage for such claim without reservation of any right of contribution against Buyer or imposing any other obligation on Buyer with respect to that portion of any Assumed Liability covered by such policies of insurance. Seller will reasonably cooperate with any Buyer regarding any coverage dispute, at Buyer’s expense.

ARTICLE IX

TAX MATTERS

9.1 Apportionment of Taxes. In order to apportion appropriately any Taxes relating to a period that includes the Closing Date, the parties hereto will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, elect with the relevant Taxing Authority to treat the Closing Date as the last day of a taxable period for each of KTC and the Taiwan Owner , and any such taxable period shall be a Pre-Closing Tax Period.

9.2 Tax Indemnification. The Seller shall indemnify each of KTC, the Taiwan Owner and the Buyer and hold them harmless from and against, any loss, claim, liability, expense or other damage attributable to all Pre-Closing Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) not taken into account in computing such entity’s Net Working Capital on the Final Statement of Working Capital. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall have no obligation to indemnify KTC, the Taiwan Owner or Buyer from and against Taxes consisting of any interest or penalties incurred because of the failure to timely file any Straddle Period Tax Returns or because of the failure to timely pay any Taxes shown to be due on any such Tax Returns.

9.3 Cooperation on Tax Matters. The Seller and the Buyer shall cooperate fully as and to the extent reasonably requested by either such party in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Article IX and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon request of any of the above-named parties and at the requesting party’s expense) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return, audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Buyer agrees to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Business, KTC and the Taiwan Owner relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by the Seller, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Taxing Authority and to give the Seller reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding such books and records, and, if the Seller so requests, KTC, the Taiwan Owner or the Buyer, as the case may be, shall allow the Seller to take possession of such books and records at such time. In no event shall the Buyer initiate in any manner any review, audit or other investigation by any Governmental Authority with respect to Taxes that are or could be owing by the Business, Taiwan Owner or KTC with respect to the Pre-Closing Tax Periods.

9.4 Pre-Closing Tax Period Tax Returns. The Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared and timely file (if still possible) all Pre-Closing Tax Period Tax Returns of the Taiwan Owner and KTC, which Tax Returns shall be prepared in accordance with past practices and customs (unless the Buyer reasonably determines (subject, if Seller disputes that determination, to resolution pursuant to the dispute resolution procedure in Section 10.11) that a different treatment of any item is required by any applicable Law). The Seller shall pay all amounts shown on such Tax Returns and any related interest and penalties otherwise due with respect to such Tax Returns that have not been timely filed; provided, that Buyer shall promptly reimburse the Seller for any such amounts that were properly reserved or accrued for (other than any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) in accordance with past custom and practice of the Taiwan Owner or KTC. The Seller shall provide to the Buyer drafts of any Pre-Closing Tax Period Tax Returns at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the filing deadline for the Buyer’s review, comment and approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and shall include any revisions reasonably proposed by the Buyer. Any dispute between the Buyer and Seller regarding the content of such Tax Returns shall be resolved pursuant to the dispute resolution procedure in Section 10.11 below. For avoidance of doubt, it is understood that the Seller shall be responsible for and shall indemnify the Buyer and its Affiliates for any Taxes with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period regardless of whether the non-payment of such Tax or non-filing of a Pre-Closing Tax Period Tax Return has been disclosed on the Disclosure Schedules or whether the Buyer was aware of such Tax or was disclosed information that if set forth on the Disclosure Schedules would have resulted in no breach of any representation or warranty, unless and to the extent those Taxes are taken into account in computing Net Working Capital on the Final Statement of Working Capital.

9.5 Straddle Period Tax Returns. The Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and timely file or cause to be timely filed all Straddle Period Tax Returns of the Taiwan Owner and KTC, which Tax Returns shall be prepared in accordance with past practices and customs

(unless the Buyer reasonably determines (subject, if Seller disputes that determination, to resolution pursuant to the dispute resolution procedure in Section 10.11) that a different treatment of any item is required by any applicable Law). The Buyer shall provide to the Seller drafts of any Straddle Period Tax Returns, in each case at least thirty (30) days prior to filing, for the Seller’s review, comment and approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and shall include any revisions reasonably proposed by the Seller. Any dispute between the Buyer and Seller regarding the content of such Tax Returns shall be resolved pursuant to the dispute resolution procedure in Section 10.11 below. For avoidance of doubt, it is understood that Seller shall bear no responsibility for any Taxes with respect to a Straddle Period if such Taxes were properly reserved or accrued for (other than any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) in accordance with past custom and practice of the Taiwan Owner or KTC in filing its Tax Returns, assuming such Taxes were not yet due (as estimated Taxes or otherwise).

9.6 Tax Controversies. The Buyer shall promptly notify the Seller of any inquiries, claims, assessments, audits or similar events with respect to Taxes relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a Straddle Period for which the Seller may be liable under this Agreement (such inquiry, claim, assessment, audit or similar event, a “Tax Matter”); provided, however, that no failure to give such notice shall relieve the Seller of any liability hereunder except to the extent, if any, that the rights of the Seller with respect to such claim are actually prejudiced thereby. The Buyer shall have the authority to represent the interests of the Taiwan Owner and KTC and shall have control of the defense, compromise or other resolution of any Tax Matter; provided, however, that the Seller shall be entitled to participate in such Tax Matter at its own expense and the Buyer shall (i) inform the Seller of the status of any such Tax Matter; (ii) provide the Seller with copies of any pleadings, correspondence, and other documents prior to submission; (iii) accept any comments of the Seller that are reasonable and (iv) obtain the consent of the Seller prior to settling such Tax Matter, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, further, if such Tax Matter relates solely to Pre-Closing Taxes (it being understood that a matter shall not be treated as not relating solely to Pre-Closing Taxes solely because the basis of the KTC assets or other Tax attributes could be affected by resolution of the matters) and the Seller is liable for indemnification with respect to such Tax Matter, then the Seller may, in its sole discretion and at its cost and expense, control the defense of such Tax Matter. In the event that the Seller controls a Tax Matter, the Seller shall (i) inform the Buyer of the status of any such Tax Matter; (ii) provide the Buyer with copies of any pleadings, correspondence, and other documents prior to submission; (iii) accept any comments of the Buyer that are reasonable and (iv) not settle any issues with respect to such Pre-Closing Taxes without the Buyer’s consent if such settlement will adversely impact the Buyer, KTC or the Taiwan Owner in any Tax period ending after the Closing Date. The Buyer and counsel of its own choosing shall have the right to participate in, but not direct, the prosecution or defense of such Tax Matter at the Buyer’s sole expense.

9.7 Amendments to Tax Returns. If the Buyer, KTC or the Taiwan Owner amend, refile, or otherwise modify any Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period, or waive any limitation period with respect to such Tax Returns, then if done voluntarily by Buyer the Seller shall not be liable to the Buyer for indemnification under this Article IX as a result thereof. Any dispute between the Buyer and Seller regarding the content of such amendments, refilings or modifications shall be resolved pursuant to the dispute resolution procedure in Section 10.11 below.

9.8 Tax Sharing Agreement. The Taiwan Owner, KTC and the Seller shall cause to be terminated as to the Taiwan Owner and KTC not later than the Closing any and all Tax sharing, Tax indemnity or Tax allocation agreements between the Seller (or any Affiliate of the Seller other than the Taiwan Owner or KTC) on the one hand and the Taiwan Owner and/or KTC on the other hand that were in effect at any time on or prior to the Closing. No further amounts shall be payable by the Buyer, the Taiwan Owner or KTC under such agreements following the Closing, and the Buyer, the Taiwan Owner and KTC shall have no further obligations thereunder following the Closing.

9.9 Certain Taxes and Fees. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be borne and paid one-half by the Seller and one-half by the Buyer when due, and the party required to do so shall, at the parties’ shared expense, cause to be timely filed all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Taxes, fees, and charges, and, if required by applicable Law, the other party shall join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation. The parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other to obtain any certificate or other document from any Taxing Authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any such Tax, fee or charge that is or otherwise would be imposed absent such certificate or document. The reasonable cost of such cooperation, if any, shall be shared by the parties.

This Agreement shall not be assigned by any party hereto whether by operation of law or otherwise; provided that the Buyer may assign this Agreement (and its rights and obligations hereunder) to any entity Controlled by the Buyer or an Affiliate; provided further that the Seller may assign any of its rights under this Agreement, including the right to receive the Purchase Price, to one or more Affiliates of the Seller or to a person who acquires all or substantially all the Seller’s assets (whether by merger or otherwise) without the consent of the Buyer; provided, however, that no such assignment shall constitute a release of Buyer or Seller from its obligations and covenants hereunder for which Buyer or Seller shall remain primarily liable. For the avoidance of doubt, Seller may assign its right to receive the Deferred Payment to any third party; provided, however, any such assignee shall take such right subject to the Deed of Priority.

10.5 Waiver and Modification. Failure by either party to enforce any provision of this Agreement will not be deemed a waiver of future enforcement of that or any other provision. Any waiver, amendment or other modification of any provision of this Agreement will be effective only if in writing and signed by the parties.

10.6 Governing Law. This Agreement and all disputes or controversies arising or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware without reference to conflicts or choice of law principles.

10.7 Headings. Headings used in this Agreement are for ease of reference only and shall not be used to interpret any aspect of this Agreement.

10.8 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Disclosure Schedules and all exhibits which are incorporated herein by reference, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes and replaces all prior and contemporaneous representations, warranties, understandings or agreements, written or oral, regarding such subject matter. Neither this Agreement nor any Ancillary Agreement shall be deemed to contain or imply any restriction, covenant, representation, warranty, agreement or undertaking of any party with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than those expressly set forth herein or therein or in any document required to be delivered hereunder or thereunder, and none shall be deemed to exist or be inferred with respect to the subject matter hereof. Notwithstanding any oral agreement or course of action of the parties or their Representatives to the contrary, no party to this Agreement shall be under any legal obligation to enter into or complete the transactions contemplated hereby unless and until this Agreement shall have been executed and delivered by each of the parties.

10.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original and together which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

10.10 Reformation. In the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any one or more of the provisions or part of a provision contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or part of a provision of this Agreement; but this Agreement shall be reformed and construed as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision, or part of a provision, had never been contained herein, and such provisions or part reformed so that it would be valid, legal and enforceable to the maximum extent possible.

10.11 Dispute Resolution; Arbitration.

(a) Matters in dispute under or relating to this Agreement shall, unless settled pursuant to Section 10.11(b), be finally resolved by mandatory binding arbitration. The parties to any dispute resolved pursuant to this Section 10.11 shall be (i) the Buyer on behalf of the Buyer and Buyer’s Parent, on the one hand, and (ii) and the Seller, on behalf of the Seller Group on the other.

(b) The parties wish to encourage an informal mechanism for resolving disputes. If the parties are unable to agree upon a resolution of a dispute within fifteen (15) days of such dispute arising, either party to such dispute may notify the other party of an intention to further discuss such disputed matter. Within fifteen (15) days of receiving such notification, the parties to such dispute shall each appoint a senior officer. If the senior officers of the parties are unable to resolve the matter at issue within a further thirty (30) day period following their appointment, then either party to the dispute may refer the matter at issue to binding arbitration as provided elsewhere in this Section 10.11.

(c) Any unresolved controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement (or the facts and circumstances relating hereto) shall be submitted to binding arbitration by one arbitrator mutually agreed upon by the parties, and if no agreement can be reached within thirty (30) days after names of potential arbitrators have been proposed by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), then by one arbitrator having reasonable experience in mergers and acquisitions transactions and who is chosen by the AAA (the “Arbitrator”). The arbitration shall take place in New York, NY, in accordance with the AAA rules then in effect, and judgment upon any award rendered in such arbitration will be binding and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Each party will bear its own costs in respect of any disputes arising under this Agreement. Each of the parties to this Agreement consents to personal jurisdiction for any equitable action sought in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York or any court located in New York County, New York having subject matter jurisdiction.

(d) The Arbitrator shall proceed immediately to hear and determine the question in dispute. The Arbitrator shall determine the procedure to be followed in the arbitration. The Arbitrator shall communicate the decision not later than thirty (30) days after the close of argument in the arbitration, subject to any reasonable delay due to unforeseen circumstances.

(e) Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the costs incurred in connection with the arbitration and all other costs of the arbitration shall be awarded to the prevailing or most prevailing party as determined by the Arbitrator.

(f) Nothing herein contained shall prevent either party from seeking equitable relief, an injunction and any relief ancillary thereto from a court of competent jurisdiction.

10.12 Third Party Expenses. Whether or not the transactions contemplated herein are consummated, all fees and expenses incurred by a party in connection with the negotiation and effectuation of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be the obligation of the respective party incurring such fees and expenses, except as set forth in Section 2.12. In the case of the Seller, all unpaid Seller Transaction Fees as of the Closing Date that are at such time the obligation of the Taiwan Owner or KTC shall be deducted from the Purchase Price. Any Seller Transaction Fees so deducted shall thereafter be the responsibility of the Buyer for payment as a post-Closing obligation.

10.13 Remedies. Any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

10.14 Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended, except by an instrument in writing signed by each of the parties to this Agreement. At any time prior to the Closing, the parties hereto, by action taken or authorized by their respective boards of directors or management, as applicable, may, to the extent legally permitted, (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of any other party hereto, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered hereto, and (iii) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party. The failure of a party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of those rights.

10.15 Disclosure Generally. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Disclosure Schedules or in this Agreement, the information and disclosures contained in any Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be disclosed and incorporated by reference in any other Disclosure Schedule as though fully set forth in such Disclosure Schedule for which applicability of such information and disclosure is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure. The fact that any item of information is disclosed in any Disclosure Schedule shall not be construed to mean that such information is required to be disclosed by this Agreement. Such information and the dollar thresholds set forth herein shall not be used as a basis for interpreting the terms “material” or “Material Adverse Effect” or other similar terms in this Agreement.

10.16 Personal Liability. This Agreement shall not create or be deemed to create or permit any personal liability or obligation on the part of any direct or indirect stockholder of the Seller Group , the Buyer or Buyer’s Parent or any officer, director, employee, or investor of any party hereto.
