WHEREAS, the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are parties to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of March 19, 2013 (as amended or modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, the Borrower anticipates that on or before February 22, 2015, the Borrower will be party to certain merger and reorganization transactions pursuant to the terms of that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated as of February 22, 2014 (such agreement, as amended on or prior to the date hereof or as hereinafter permitted, the “Merger Agreement” and such merger and reorganization transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, collectively, the “Merger Transaction”) among the Borrower, TriQuint Semiconductor, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“TriQuint”) and Rocky Holding, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”).
