Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 21, 2016, Applied Micro Circuits Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“AMCC”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) with MACOM Technology Solutions Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“MACOM”), Montana Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of MACOM (“Purchaser”), and Montana Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of MACOM (“LLC Sub”).

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions described therein, Purchaser will commence an exchange offer (the “Offer”) to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock of AMCC (the “AMCC Stock”), with each share of AMCC Stock accepted by Purchaser in the Offer to be exchanged for the right to receive (i) $3.25 in cash (the “Cash Consideration”) and (ii) 0.1089 shares of MACOM common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“MACOM Stock”), plus cash in lieu of any fractional shares of MACOM Stock (the “Stock Consideration”), in each case, without interest ((i) and (ii) together, the “Transaction Consideration”). If the conditions to the Offer are satisfied and the Offer closes, Purchaser would acquire any remaining AMCC Stock by a merger of Purchaser with and into AMCC (the “First Merger”), with AMCC surviving the First Merger. Immediately following the First Merger, AMCC, as the surviving company of the First Merger, will be merged with and into LLC Sub (the “Second Merger” and together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with LLC Sub surviving the Second Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of MACOM. AMCC and MACOM intend, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, that the Offer and the Mergers, taken together, will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The obligation of MACOM and Purchaser to consummate the Offer is subject to customary closing conditions, including (i) shares of AMCC Stock having been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn that represent at least a majority of the then-outstanding shares of AMCC Stock, (ii) the expiration or termination of the waiting period applicable to the Offer and the Mergers under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, (iii) the absence of any injunction or other order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction prohibiting the consummation of the Offer or the Mergers and (iv) other customary conditions set forth in Annex A of the Merger Agreement. Accordingly, no vote of AMCC stockholders will be required in connection with the Mergers if MACOM and Purchaser consummate the Offer. The Merger Agreement contemplates that, if the Offer is completed, the First Merger will be effected pursuant to Section 251(h) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, which permits completion of the First Merger upon the acquisition by MACOM of one share more than 50% of the number of shares of AMCC Stock that are then issued and outstanding. The consummation of the Offer is not subject to any financing condition.

At the effective time of the First Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of AMCC Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any AMCC Stock owned or held in treasury by AMCC or shares owned by any person who is entitled to and properly demands statutory appraisal of his or her shares) will be converted into the right to receive the Transaction Consideration, without interest, subject to any required withholding taxes.

Each option to purchase shares of AMCC Stock (“Option”) that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and has a per share exercise price that is less than the Transaction Consideration (with the MACOM Stock valued based on its closing price on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) on the last trading day immediately prior to the Effective Time), to the extent vested as of the Effective Time, will be cancelled as of the Effective Time and will entitle the holder thereof to receive an amount in cash and a number of shares of MACOM Stock equal to the product of (i) the Transaction Consideration (with the MACOM Stock valued based on its closing price on Nasdaq on the last trading day immediately prior to the Effective Time) multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of AMCC Stock subject to such Option equal to the excess of (A) the total number of shares of AMCC Stock subject to such Option over (B) the number of shares of AMCC Stock that, when multiplied by the closing price of the AMCC Stock on Nasdaq on the last trading day immediately prior to the Effective Time, is equal to the aggregate exercise price of such Option. Each AMCC restricted stock unit (“RSU”) that is vested and outstanding as of the Effective Time will be settled in the number of shares of AMCC Stock underlying such RSU and thereafter will entitle the holder thereof to receive an amount in cash and a number of shares of MACOM Stock equal to the Transaction Consideration (with the MACOM Stock valued based on its closing price on Nasdaq on the last trading day immediately prior to the Effective Time) in respect of each share of AMCC Stock underlying such RSU. MACOM may, at its option, pay the foregoing amounts in respect of Options and RSUs solely in cash. RSUs that are outstanding and unvested as of the Effective Time and Options that are outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are either unvested or have a per share exercise price in excess of the Transaction Consideration (with the MACOM Stock valued based on its closing price on Nasdaq on the last trading day immediately prior to the Effective Time) will generally, as of the Effective Time, be converted into

stock options (in the case of Options) or restricted stock units (in the case of RSUs) with respect to MACOM Stock, having the same terms and conditions as applied prior to the Mergers, except for such terms rendered inoperative by reason of the Mergers and such other adjustments as may be determined by MACOM. With respect to its Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), AMCC will cause any outstanding offering period under such plan to terminate as of the Effective Time, with the ESPP and all outstanding rights under such plan being terminated as of such time. Any shares of AMCC Stock so purchased under the ESPP will be canceled and converted into the right to receive the Transaction Consideration.

The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants of the parties customary for a transaction of this nature, including an agreement that, subject to certain exceptions, the parties will use reasonable best efforts to cause the Offer and the Mergers to be consummated. Additionally, AMCC has agreed not to solicit or initiate discussions with third parties regarding other proposals to acquire AMCC and to certain restrictions on its ability to respond to any such proposals. Until the earlier of the termination of the Merger Agreement and the Effective Time, AMCC has agreed to operate its business in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and has agreed to certain other negative operating covenants, as set forth more fully in the Merger Agreement.

The Merger Agreement includes customary termination provisions for both MACOM and AMCC, and provides that, in connection with the termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, including a termination by AMCC to make a stockholder recommendation adverse to tendering into the Offer, AMCC will pay MACOM a termination fee of $30,000,000.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is filed with this report as Exhibit 2.1.

A copy of the Merger Agreement has been included to provide AMCC stockholders and other security holders with information regarding its terms and is not intended to provide any factual information about MACOM or AMCC. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement have been made solely for the purposes of the Merger Agreement and as of specific dates; were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement; are not intended as statements of fact to be relied upon by MACOM stockholders or other security holders, but rather as a way of allocating the risk between the parties to the Merger Agreement in the event the statements therein prove to be inaccurate; have been modified or qualified by certain confidential disclosures that were made between the parties in connection with the negotiation of the Merger Agreement, which disclosures are not reflected in the Merger Agreement itself; may no longer be true as of a given date; and may apply standards of materiality in a way that is different from what may be viewed as material by MACOM stockholders or other security holders. MACOM stockholders or other security holders are not third-party beneficiaries under the Merger Agreement and should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of MACOM, Purchaser or AMCC. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in MACOM’s or AMCC’s public disclosures.

Support Agreements

On November 20, 2016, in connection with the Merger Agreement, certain directors, officers and affiliated stockholders of AMCC (the “Stockholders”), solely in their respective capacities as stockholders of AMCC, entered into Support Agreements with MACOM and Purchaser (“Support Agreements”). These agreements provide, among other things, that the Stockholders will not sell or dispose of their AMCC Stock except to participate in the Offer and to tender their shares within 10 business days of the commencement of the Offer.

The foregoing description of the Support Agreements is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the form of the agreements, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, and is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

On November 21, 2016, AMCC and MACOM issued a press release announcing entry into the Merger Agreement and Support Agreements, which is attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

WHEREAS, in connection with the First Merger, each outstanding share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Cancelled Shares or Dissenting Shares) will automatically be converted into the right to receive the Transaction Consideration upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with the DGCL;

WHEREAS, the Parties intend that the Offer and the Mergers, taken together, will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and that this Agreement be, and is hereby adopted as, a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Sections 354 and 361 of the Code and Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(g);

(i) Conversion of Company Common Stock. Subject to Section 3.2(j) below, each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Cancelled Shares and any Dissenting Shares) shall be automatically converted into the right to receive the Transaction Consideration. From and after the Effective Time, each applicable holder of such shares of Company Common Stock shall

- 10 -

cease to have any rights with respect thereto, all such shares of Company Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and uncertificated shares of Company Common Stock represented by book-entry form (“Book-Entry Shares”) and each certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented any such shares of Company Common Stock (each, a “Certificate”) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Transaction Consideration upon the surrender of such shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with Section 3.2, including the right to receive, pursuant to Section 3.1(e), cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock, if any, into which such shares of Company Common Stock have been converted pursuant to this Section 3.1(a), together with the amounts, if any, payable pursuant to Section 3.2(e).

(ii) Cancellation of Company Common Stock; Certain Subsidiary Owned Shares. Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that is owned or held in treasury by the Company and each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that is owned by Parent, Purchaser or any other direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist (the “Cancelled Shares”), and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(iii) Treatment of Purchaser Shares. At the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Purchaser (the “Purchaser Common Stock”) shall be automatically converted into and become one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the First Surviving Company and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the First Surviving Company. From and after the Effective Time, all certificates representing shares of Purchaser Common Stock shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of shares of common stock of the First Surviving Company into which they were converted in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

(b) Share Adjustments. At the Second Effective Time, by virtue of the Second Merger and without any action on the part of any of the Parties or holders of any securities of the First Surviving Company or of Merger Sub Two, (i) each membership interest of Merger Sub Two issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Effective Time shall remain outstanding as a membership interest of the Surviving Company and (ii) all shares of common stock of the First Surviving Company shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist without any consideration being payable therefor.

- 11 -

Section 262 of the DGCL. If such Dissenting Stockholder, after the Effective Time, withdraws its demand for appraisal or fails to perfect or otherwise loses its right of appraisal, in any case pursuant to the DGCL, each of such Dissenting Stockholder’s shares of Company Common Stock shall thereupon be treated as though such shares of Company Common Stock had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Transaction Consideration. The Company shall give Parent prompt (and in any event within three (3) days) notice of any demands for appraisal of shares of Company Common Stock received by the Company, withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL and shall give Parent the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect thereto. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands.

(d) Certain Adjustments. If, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock or Parent Common Stock shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class of shares by reason of any stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, stock split, reverse stock split, combination or exchange of shares, or any similar event shall have occurred (other than in connection with the Transactions), then the Transaction Consideration shall be equitably adjusted, without duplication, to proportionally reflect such change; provided that nothing in this Section 3.1(d) shall be construed to permit the Company to take any of the foregoing actions with respect to its securities to the extent otherwise prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

(e) No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the Offer or the Merger, no certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be delivered upon the conversion of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(i), and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a holder of shares of Parent Common Stock. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of shares of Company Common Stock converted pursuant to the First Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after aggregating all shares represented by the Certificates and Book-Entry Shares delivered by such holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof and upon surrender thereof, cash (without interest) in an amount determined by multiplying (i) the Parent Trading Price, rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent by (ii) the fraction of a share (after taking into account all shares of Company Common Stock held by such holder at the Effective Time and rounded to the nearest one thousandth when expressed in decimal form) of Parent Common Stock to which such holder would otherwise be entitled (the “Fractional Share Cash Amount”). No such holder shall be entitled to dividends, voting rights or any other rights in respect of any fractional share of Parent Common Stock.

- 12 -

(b) Deposit of Transaction Consideration. Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, within two (2) Business Days after the Acceptance Time, cash sufficient to pay the aggregate Cash Consideration payable in the Mergers to holders of Company Common Stock and shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, at such time, evidence of Parent Common Stock in book-entry form (and/or certificates representing such Parent Common Stock, at Parent’s election) representing the number of shares of Parent Common Stock sufficient to deliver the aggregate Stock Consideration payable in the Mergers (such cash and certificates, together with any dividends or distributions with respect thereto, the “Exchange Fund”).

(c) Exchange Procedures. Promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event within three (3) Business Days thereafter), Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Company to, cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of shares of Company Common Stock whose shares of Company Common Stock were converted pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(i) into the right to receive the Transaction Consideration (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent and the Company shall reasonably agree) (the “Letter of Transmittal”) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in exchange for the Transaction Consideration (including the Fractional Share Cash Amount) and any dividends or other distributions to which such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares become entitled in accordance with Section 3.2(e) (collectively, the “Exchanged Amounts”).

(d) Surrender of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares. Upon surrender of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent together (in the case of Certificates) with the Letter of Transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may customarily be required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Transaction Consideration into which the shares represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares have been converted pursuant to this Agreement, including the Fractional Share Cash Amount, together with any dividends or other distributions to which such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares become entitled in accordance with Section 3.2(e). In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Common Stock that is not registered in the transfer or stock records of the Company, any cash to be paid upon, or shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued upon, due surrender of the Certificate or Book-Entry Share formerly representing such shares of Company Common Stock may be paid or issued, as the case may be, to such a transferee if such Certificate or Book-Entry Share is presented to the Exchange Agent, accompanied by all documents reasonably required to evidence and effect such transfer and to

- 13 -

evidence that any applicable stock transfer or other similar Taxes have been paid or are not applicable. No interest shall be paid or shall accrue on the cash payable upon surrender of any Certificate or Book-Entry Share. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.2, each Certificate and Book-Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive, upon such surrender, the Transaction Consideration into which the shares represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares have been converted pursuant to this Agreement, together with the Fractional Share Cash Amount and any dividends or other distributions to which such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares become entitled in accordance with Section 3.2(e). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any holder of Book-Entry Shares shall not be required to deliver a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Exchange Agent to receive the Exchanged Amounts that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this ARTICLE III. In lieu thereof, each holder of record of one or more Book-Entry Shares whose Company Common Stock were converted into the right to receive the Exchanged Amounts shall upon receipt by the Exchange Agent of an “agent’s message” in customary form (or such other evidence, if any, as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request), be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to exchange and deliver as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Exchanged Amounts in respect of each such share of Company Common Stock, and the Book-Entry Shares of such holder shall forthwith be cancelled.

(e) Treatment of Unexchanged Shares. No dividends or other distributions, if any, with a record date after the Effective Time with respect to Parent Common Stock, shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered share of Company Common Stock to be converted into shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(i) until such holder shall surrender such share in accordance with this Section 3.2. After the surrender in accordance with this Section 3.2 of a share of Company Common Stock to be converted into the right to receive shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(i), the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive (in addition to the Transaction Consideration and the Fractional Share Cash Amount payable to such holder pursuant to this ARTICLE III) any such dividends or other distributions, without any interest thereon, which theretofore had become payable with respect to the Parent Common Stock issuable in respect of such share of Company Common Stock.

(f) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. The shares of Parent Common Stock delivered and cash paid in accordance with the terms of this ARTICLE III upon conversion of any shares of Company Common Stock, once so delivered and paid, shall be deemed to have been delivered and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Common Stock (subject to any rights of Dissenting Stockholders). From and after the Effective Time, subject to Parent’s and Purchaser’s compliance with their respective obligations hereunder, (i) all holders of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company other than the right to receive the Transaction Consideration into which the shares represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares have been converted pursuant to this Agreement upon the surrender of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share in accordance with Section 3.2(d) (together with the Fractional Share Cash Amount and any dividends or other distributions to which such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares become entitled in accordance with Section 3.2(e)), without interest, and (ii) the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, the stock transfer

- 14 -

books of the Company shall be closed, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Company of shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any Certificates or Book-Entry Shares formerly representing shares of Company Common Stock are presented to the Surviving Company, Parent or the Exchange Agent for any reason, such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this ARTICLE III, subject to applicable Law in the case of Dissenting Shares.

(g) Sale of Excess Shares. As promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall determine the excess of (A) the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock issued and delivered representing the Transaction Consideration over (B) the aggregate number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock to be distributed to former holders of Company Common Stock in the Offer or pursuant to Section 3.2 (determined before taking into account any shares of Parent Common Stock withheld under Section 3.2) (such excess, the “Parent Excess Shares”). Following the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall, on behalf of former shareholders of the Company, sell the Parent Excess Shares at then prevailing prices on Nasdaq, all in the manner provided in this Section 3.2(g). The sale of the Parent Excess Shares by the Exchange Agent shall be executed on Nasdaq through one or more member firms of Nasdaq and shall be executed in round lots to the extent practicable. The Exchange Agent shall use reasonable best efforts to complete the sale of the Parent Excess Shares as promptly following the Effective Time as is practicable, consistent with obtaining the best execution of such sales in light of prevailing market conditions. Until the net proceeds of such sale or sales have been distributed to the holders of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares formerly representing Company Common Stock, the Exchange Agent shall hold such proceeds in the Exchange Fund.

(h) Investment of Exchange Fund. The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by Parent; provided that such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America, in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, respectively, in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $1 billion, or in money market funds having a rating in the highest investment category granted by a recognized credit rating agency at the time of investment. No such investment or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares pursuant to this ARTICLE III, and following any losses from any such investment, or to the extent the cash portion of the Exchange Fund otherwise diminishes for any reason below the level required for the Exchange Agent to make cash payments pursuant to Section 3.1, Parent shall promptly provide additional funds to the Exchange Agent for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock at the Effective Time in the amount of such losses or other shortfall, which additional funds will be deemed to be part of the Exchange Fund. Any interest and other income resulting from such investment shall become a part of the Exchange Fund, and any cash amounts in excess of the amounts payable under Section 3.1, shall be promptly returned to the Surviving Company.

(i) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including any interest or other amounts received with respect thereto) that remains unclaimed by, or otherwise undistributed to, the holders of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares for 180 days

- 15 -

after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares who has not theretofore complied with this ARTICLE III shall thereafter look only to Parent or the Surviving Company (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws), as general creditors thereof, for satisfaction of its claim for Transaction Consideration and any dividends and distributions which such holder has the right to receive pursuant to this ARTICLE III without any interest thereon.

(j) No Liability. None of Parent, the Company or Purchaser or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any person in respect of any portion of the Exchange Fund or the Transaction Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any portion of the Transaction Consideration or the cash to be paid in accordance with this ARTICLE III that remains undistributed to the holders of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares as of the second (2nd) anniversary of the Effective Time (or immediately prior to such earlier date on which the Transaction Consideration or such cash would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity), shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Company, free and clear of all claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

(k) Withholding Rights. Each of the Company, Parent, Purchaser, the Surviving Company, the Exchange Agent and any other applicable withholding agent, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause the Exchange Agent to deduct and withhold, from, and with respect to, the Transaction Consideration and any other amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement and any other agreement or arrangements entered into in connection with the Offer or the Merger, such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld with respect to the foregoing under any applicable Tax Law. Any amounts so deducted or withheld shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement (and any other agreement or arrangements entered into in connection with the Offer or the Merger) as having been paid to the person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. Any compensatory payments contemplated to be made hereunder shall be made through the payroll procedures of the applicable person.

(l) Lost Certificates. Subject to Section 3.2(i), if any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such person of a bond in customary amount as Parent or the Exchange Agent may reasonably require as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it or the Surviving Company with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent (or, if subsequent to the termination of the Exchange Fund and subject to Section 3.2(h), Parent) shall deliver, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Transaction Consideration and any dividends and distributions deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement had such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate been surrendered.

Section 3.3. Company Options, Company RSUS and ESPP.

(a) Treatment of Vested In-the-Money Company Options. Each Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and has a per-share exercise price in excess of the sum of the Cash Consideration plus the product of the

- 16 -

Stock Consideration multiplied by the closing price of the Parent Common Stock on Nasdaq on the last trading day immediately prior to the Effective Time, to the extent vested in accordance with its terms as of the Effective Time (each, a “Vested In-the-Money Company Option”) shall be cancelled as of the Effective Time and thereafter shall only entitle the holder of such Company Option to receive (without interest) an amount in cash and a number of shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Option Consideration”) equal to the product of the (i) Transaction Consideration (with the Stock Consideration value based on the closing price of the Parent Common Stock on Nasdaq on the last trading day immediately before the Effective Time), multiplied by (ii) that number of whole and partial (computed to the nearest four decimal places) shares of Company Common Stock equal to the excess of (A) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock then subject to such Vested In-the-Money Company Option over (B) the number of whole and partial (computed to the nearest four decimal places) shares of Company Common Stock that, when multiplied by the closing price of the Company Common Stock on Nasdaq on the last trading day immediately prior to the Effective Time, is equal to the aggregate exercise price of such Vested In-the-Money Company Option.

(b) Treatment of Unvested and Out-of-the-Money Company Options. Each Company Option other than a Vested In-the-Money Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and converted into, as of the Effective Time, and thereafter evidence an award of stock options exercisable for Parent Common Stock (after such conversion, “Rollover Options”) with respect to that number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to (i) the number of whole shares of Company Common Stock underlying the Company Option from which it was converted immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (ii) a fraction (computed to the nearest four decimal places) the numerator of which is the fair market value of one share of Company Common Stock and the denominator of which is the fair market value of one share of Parent Common Stock (with the fair market value of Company Common Stock and Parent Common Stock determined based on their respective closing prices on Nasdaq on the last trading day immediately prior to the Effective Time). Each Rollover Option shall have an exercise price per share of Parent Common Stock (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to (1)(A) the per share exercise price for the corresponding Company Option, divided by (B) the fair market value of one share of Company Common Stock, which quotient shall be multiplied by (2) the fair market value of one share of Parent Common Stock (with the fair market value of Company Common Stock and Parent Common Stock determined based on their respective closing prices on Nasdaq on the last trading day immediately prior to the Effective Time), and shall be subject to the same vesting terms and conditions as had been applied to the corresponding Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time. The foregoing will be subject to such modifications, if any, as are required to cause the conversion contemplated by this Section 3.3(b) to be made in a manner consistent with exemption from Section 409A of the Code and, to the extent applicable, Section 424 of the Code, or as are otherwise reasonably determined by Parent to be necessary or desirable.

(c) Treatment of Vested Company RSUs and MSUs. Each Company RSU and Company MSU that is outstanding as of the Effective Time, to the extent vested in accordance with its terms as of the Effective Time (each, a “Vested Company RSU”) shall, by virtue of the occurrence of the Effective Time and without any action on the part of any holder thereof, be settled in that number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying the Vested

- 17 -

Company RSU as of the Effective Time and thereafter shall entitle the holder of such Vested Company RSU to receive (without interest) an amount in cash and a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the Transaction Consideration (with the Stock Consideration valued based on the closing price of the Parent Common Stock on Nasdaq on the last trading day immediately before the Effective Time), in respect of each share of Company Common Stock that was subject to such holder’s Vested Company RSUs (the “RSU Consideration”).

(d) Treatment of Unvested Company RSUs. Each Company RSU and Company MSU that is outstanding as of the Effective Time and is not a Vested Company RSU (each, an “Unvested Company RSU”), shall be cancelled as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and converted into, as of the Effective Time, and thereafter evidence (i) a restricted stock unit award with respect to the number of shares of Parent Common Stock that is equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Unvested Company RSU as of the Effective Time (for the avoidance of doubt, for Company MSUs, only that number of shares that become eligible to vest or be accelerated after the Effective Time under the applicable award agreement or the Company’s Executive Severance Benefit Plan based on actual or deemed performance, as applicable), multiplied by (B) a fraction the numerator of which is the fair market value of one share of Company Common Stock and the denominator of which is the fair market value of one share of Parent Common Stock (with the fair market value of Company Common Stock and Parent Common Stock determined based on their respective closing prices on Nasdaq on the last trading day immediately prior to the Effective Time) (after such conversion, “Rollover RSUs”). Each Rollover RSU shall be subject to the same vesting terms and conditions as had been applied to the corresponding Company RSU or Company MSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, except for such terms rendered inoperative by reason of the Transactions (including, to the extent such Company MSU vests in accordance with its terms as of immediately prior to the Effective Time or is deemed to vest under the Company’s Executive Severance Benefit Plan, as applicable, the elimination of all Company Common Stock price vesting criteria that applied to the Company MSUs prior to the Effective Time) subject to such adjustments as are reasonably determined by Parent to be necessary or desirable to give effect to such conversion and the Transactions. For the avoidance of doubt, each Company MSU (or portion thereof) shall terminate without consideration immediately prior to the Effective Time to the extent that the applicable performance criteria have not been satisfied (or deemed satisfied under the Company’s Executive Severance Benefit Plan) as of the Effective Time.

(e) Settlement. All Option Consideration and RSU Consideration shall be issued or paid as soon as reasonably practicable, and no later than seven (7) Business Days, after the Closing Date, subject to compliance with Section 409A of the Code to the extent applicable. All Option Consideration and RSU Consideration shall be paid in cash and Parent Common Stock in the same proportion as is payable to shareholders generally in connection with the Transactions (subject to compliance with Section 409A of the Code); provided, that Parent may, in its sole discretion, pay the Option Consideration and/or RSU Consideration wholly in cash or in cash in excess of the amount determined in accordance with this Section 3.3(e). All Option Consideration and RSU Consideration shall be payable less Tax withholdings to be applied against the cash portion of the Option Consideration and/or RSU Consideration, as applicable. Parent shall register the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to Parent Options and Rollover RSUs as promptly as practicable, and no later than ten (10) Business Days, after the Closing Date. Parent shall maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for so long

- 18 -

as any such Parent Options or Rollover RSUs remain outstanding and shall reserve a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock for issuance upon exercise or settlement thereof. In lieu of any fractional share of Parent Common Stock that otherwise would be issuable pursuant to Section 3.3(a) or Section 3.3(c), each individual will be paid an amount in cash (without interest) equal to such fractional part of a share of Parent Common Stock, determined based on the closing price of a share of Parent Common Stock on Nasdaq on the last trading day immediately prior to the Effective Time, rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent. As of the Effective Time, each Company Option, Company RSU and Company MSU shall cease to exist and shall no longer be outstanding, and each holder of a Company Option, Company RSU or Company MSU shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, other than the entitlements provided for in the applicable provisions of Section 3.3(a) through Section 3.3(e).

(f) Treatment of the ESPP. Prior to the earlier of (i) the Effective Time and (ii) the commencement of the next regularly scheduled offering period under the ESPP, the Company shall take all actions necessary or required under the ESPP and applicable Law to (A) ensure that, except for the six (6)-month offering period under the ESPP that commenced on August 1, 2016, no offering period or purchase period shall be authorized or commenced on or after the date of this Agreement, (B) ensure that no new participant may begin to participate in the ESPP, (C) provide that the applicable purchase price for shares of Company Common Stock (as a percentage of the fair market value of Company Common Stock) shall not be decreased below the levels set forth in the ESPP as of the date hereof, (D) if the Closing shall occur prior to the end of the offering period in existence under the ESPP on the date of this Agreement, cause the rights of participants in the ESPP with respect to any such offering period (and purchase period thereunder) then underway under the ESPP to be determined by treating the last Business Day prior to the Effective Time as the last day of such offering period and purchase period and by making such other pro-rata adjustments as may be necessary to reflect the shortened offering period and purchase period but otherwise treating such shortened offering period and purchase period as a fully effective and completed offering period and purchase period for all purposes under the ESPP, with any shares of Company Common Stock purchased under the ESPP cancelled at the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive the Transaction Consideration pursuant to Section 3.1 and (E) cause the funds, if any, that remain in any participants’ account after any such purchase to be promptly returned to the participant. The Company shall terminate the ESPP and all rights thereunder in their entirety effective as of the Effective Time, contingent upon the occurrence of the Effective Time. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all actions (including obtaining any necessary determinations and/or resolutions of the Company Board of Directors or an applicable committee thereof and providing notice as required by the ESPP) that are necessary to give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section 3.3(d).

(g) Termination of Company Stock Plans. Prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company shall take all actions (including obtaining any necessary determinations and/or resolutions of the Company Board of Directors or an appropriate committee thereof and providing notice as required by the Company Stock Plans that may be necessary or desirable to effectuate the provisions of this Section 3.3 and terminate all rights under any Company Equity Plan or under any provision of any other plan, program or arrangement providing for the issuance or grant of any other interest in respect of the capital stock of the Company, including all Company Options and Company RSUs and Company MSUs and to terminate the Company

- 19 -

Equity Plans, in each case, effective as of the Effective Time. The Company shall provide Parent with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon any resolutions, notices or other documents necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 3.3 and shall consider any comments in good faith.

action is required to comply with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law and (ii) may make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change and/or authorize, cause or permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into a Company Acquisition Agreement, in either such case in response to a bona fide, unsolicited Company Takeover Proposal that did not result from a breach of Section 6.3, if prior to taking such action, the Company Board of Directors has determined in good faith, after consultation with its independent financial advisor and outside legal counsel, that (i) such Company Takeover Proposal constitutes a Company Superior Proposal and (ii) such action would, or would reasonably be expected to be, required to comply with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, however, that, prior to taking such action, (A) the Company has given Parent at least four (4) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to take such action, including the terms and conditions of, and the identity of the person making, any such Company Superior Proposal and has contemporaneously provided to Parent a copy of the Company Superior Proposal or any proposed Company Acquisition Agreements (or, in each case, if not provided in writing to the Company, a written summary of the material terms thereof), (B) the Company has negotiated, and has caused its Representatives to negotiate, in good faith with Parent during such four (4) Business Day period, to the extent Parent wishes to negotiate, to make such revisions to the terms of this Agreement as would permit the Company Board of Directors not to effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in connection with a Company Superior Proposal or take any action pursuant to Section 8.1, and (C) following the end of the four (4) Business Days’ notice period, the Company Board of Directors shall have determined, after consultation with its independent financial advisor and outside legal counsel, and giving due consideration to the revisions to the terms of this Agreement to which Parent has irrevocably committed in writing, that the Company Superior Proposal would nevertheless continue to constitute a Company Superior Proposal and that such action is required to comply with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law (it being previously understood and agreed that any change to the financial or other material terms of a proposal that was previously the subject of a notice hereunder shall require a new notice to Parent as provided above), but with respect to any such subsequent notices references herein to a “four (4) Business Day notice period” shall be deemed references to a “two (2) Business Day notice period”.

(g) Nothing contained in this Section 6.3 shall prohibit the Company or the Company Board of Directors from complying with its disclosure obligations under United States federal or state Law with regard to a Company Takeover Proposal, including taking and disclosing to the stockholders of the Company (i) a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) or Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act or (ii) making any “stop, look and listen” communication to the stockholders of the Company pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act if the Company Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that the failure to do so would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law or obligations of the Company or the Company Board of Directors under applicable federal securities Law.

Section 6.4. Employee Matters.

(a) Effective as of the Effective Time and until December 31, 2017, Parent shall provide, or shall cause the Surviving Company to provide, to employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries who are employed as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and who

- 56 -

continue to be employed by Parent or the Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries following the Effective Time (the “Company Employees”), (1) base salaries or wage rates with respect to each Company Employee that are no less than provided to such Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (2) employee benefits (other than equity-based compensation) and annual cash bonus opportunities that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to (x) employee benefits and annual cash bonus opportunities provided to the Company Employees immediately prior to the Effective Time or (y) at Parent’s election, to similarly situated employees of Parent and its Subsidiaries (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) and (3) severance benefits that are no less favorable than the severance benefits provided to such Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time as set forth on Section 6.4(a)(1) of the Company Disclosure Schedule; it being understood that the Company Employees may commence participation in Parent’s compensation and benefit plans on different dates following the Effective Time with respect to different compensation and benefit plans, in accordance with the terms of the applicable plans. From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Company to, continue to honor the milestone or other bonus plans and agreements listed on Section 6.4(a)(2) of the Company Disclosure Schedule in accordance with the terms thereof.

(b) Following the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Company to, cause any employee benefit plans sponsored or maintained by Parent or the Surviving Company or any of their Subsidiaries in the United States in which the Company Employees are eligible to participate following the Closing Date, other than any equity-based or qualified or non-qualified defined benefit or deferred compensation plans (collectively, the “Post-Closing Plans”) to recognize the service of each Company Employee with the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective predecessors prior to the Effective Time for purposes of eligibility to participate and vesting under such Post-Closing Plans, in each case, to the same extent such service was recognized immediately prior to the Effective Time under a comparable Company Benefit Plan in which such Company Employee was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided that such recognition of service shall not operate to duplicate any benefits of a Company Employee with respect to the same period of service. Under each Post-Closing Plan that provides medical, dental, pharmaceutical or vision insurance benefits, for the plan year in which such Company Employee is first eligible to participate, Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to (A) cause any pre-existing condition limitations or eligibility waiting periods under such plan to be waived with respect to each Company Employee to the extent such limitation would have been waived or satisfied under the Company Benefit Plan in which such Company Employee participated or was eligible to participate in immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (B) credit each Company Employee for an amount equal to any eligible expenses incurred by such Company Employee in the plan year that includes the Effective Time for purposes of any applicable deductible, coinsurance and annual out-of-pocket expense requirements under any such Post-Closing Plan to the extent such expenses would have been credited under the terms of the applicable Company Benefit Plans.

(c) Unless requested by Parent not later than ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall take (or cause to be taken) all actions necessary or appropriate to terminate, effective no later than the day prior to the Closing Date, any Company Benefit Plan that contains a cash or deferred arrangement intended to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Code (a “Company 401(k) Plan”). The Company shall provide to Parent prior to the Closing

- 57 -

Date written evidence of the adoption by the Company Board of Directors of resolutions authorizing the termination of such Company 401(k) Plan (the form and substance of which resolutions shall be subject to the prior review and approval of Parent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In the event of such 401(k) plan termination, Parent shall take all actions necessary to allow Company employees who meet the age and service eligibility requirements under the 401(k) plan maintained by Parent or its affiliates (the “Parent 401(k) Plan”) to enroll as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing (and in no event later than sixty (60) days following the Effective Time) under the Parent 401(k) Plan and to make rollover contributions of “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code), in the form of cash only. The Company shall, and shall cause its subsidiaries to, cooperate with Parent in good faith (including by promptly furnishing such information as is requested by Parent) in fulfilling the obligations of Parent under this Section 6.4(c).

(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon any Company Employee or other service provider any right to continue in the employ or service of Parent, the Surviving Company or any Affiliate of Parent, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their Affiliates, which rights are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or terminate the services of any Company Employee or other service provider at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause. In no event shall the terms of this Agreement be deemed to (i) establish, amend, or modify any Company Benefit Plan, Post-Closing Plan or any “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, or any other benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement maintained or sponsored by Parent, the Surviving Company, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries (including, after the Closing Date, the Company and its Subsidiaries) or Affiliates; or (ii) alter or limit the ability of Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their Subsidiaries (including, after the Closing Date, the Company and its Subsidiaries) or Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any Company Benefit Plan, Post-Closing Plan or any other compensation or benefit or employment plan, program, agreement or arrangement after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Section 6.4 shall create any third party beneficiary rights in any Company Employee or current or former service provider of the Company or its Affiliates (or any beneficiaries or dependents thereof).

Section 6.5. Regulatory Approvals; Efforts.

(a) Prior to the Closing, Parent, Purchaser and the Company shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to consummate the Offer and the other Transactions, including (i) the preparation and filing of all forms, registrations, applications and notices required to be filed under applicable Law to consummate the Offer and the Mergers (including the Registration Statement, the Offer documents, the Schedule 14D-9, and the Offer Prospectus), (ii) the satisfaction of the conditions to consummating the Offer and the Mergers, (iii) taking all reasonable actions necessary to obtain (and cooperating with each other in obtaining) any consent, authorization, Order or approval of, or any exemption by, any Governmental Entity (which actions shall include furnishing all information and documentary material required under the HSR Act) required to be obtained or made by Parent, Purchaser, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries in connection with the Offer or the Mergers or the taking of any action contemplated by this Agreement, provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, that Parent

- 58 -

shall make commercially reasonable efforts to enter into any agreements or commitments including proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate orders, or otherwise, the sale, divesture or disposition of such of its assets, properties or businesses or of the assets, properties or businesses to be acquired by it pursuant hereto, to the extent that such agreement, commitment, sale, divesture or disposition would not individually or together with other agreements, commitments, sales, divestures or dispositions involve assets owned by either Parent or the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries, that generated revenue in excess of $1,000,000 during the past twelve (12) months ended September 30, 2016, and (iv) the execution and delivery of any reasonable additional instruments necessary to consummate the Offer and the Mergers and to fully carry out the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Parent and the Company each agree to file a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act within ten (10) Business Days of the date of the Agreement and to make filings required by applicable foreign Antitrust Laws with respect to the Offer and the Mergers as soon as practicable after the date of the Agreement (and Parent may “pull and refile” any such form or filing, if in its reasonable good faith judgment in consultation with and considering in good faith the views of counsel for the Company, such step is consistent with expeditiously obtaining a required approval). Additionally, each of Parent, Purchaser and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to fulfill all conditions precedent to the Offer and the Mergers and shall not take any action after the date of this Agreement that would reasonably be expected to materially delay the obtaining of, or result in not obtaining, any permission, approval or consent from any such Governmental Entity necessary to be obtained to consummate the Offer and the Mergers, except any actions taken in relation to the rights of the Company under Section 6.3. Parent and the Company may agree to postpone any filings required under this Section 6.5(a) based on input from counsel.

(b) Parent and the Company shall each keep the other apprised of the status of matters relating to the completion of the Offer and work cooperatively in connection with obtaining all required consents, authorizations, Orders or approvals of, or any exemptions by, any Governmental Entity undertaken pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.5. In that regard, prior to the Closing, each Party shall promptly consult with the other Parties to this Agreement with respect to and provide any reasonable information and assistance as the other Parties may reasonably request with respect to (and, in the case of correspondence, provide the other Parties (or their counsel) copies of) all material notices, submissions, or filings made by such Party with any Governmental Entity regarding any Antitrust Laws or any other information supplied by such Party to, or correspondence with, a Governmental Entity regarding any Antitrust Laws and in connection with this Agreement and the Offer and the Mergers. Each Party to this Agreement shall promptly inform the other Parties to this Agreement, and if in writing, furnish the other Parties with copies of (or, in the case of oral communications, advise the other Parties orally of) any material communication from or to any Governmental Entity relating to any Antitrust Laws and regarding the Offer and the Mergers, and afford the other Parties a reasonable opportunity to review and discuss in advance, and consider in good faith the views of the other Parties in connection with, any proposed communication with any such Governmental Entity relating to any Antitrust Laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that Parent will, in consultation with the Company, devise the strategy for all filings, notifications, submissions and communications in connection with any filing, notice, petition, statement, registration, submission of information, application or similar filing with a Governmental Entity relating to any Antitrust Laws and subject to this Section 6.5. If any Party

- 59 -

to this Agreement or any Representative of such Parties receives a request for additional information or documentary material from any Governmental Entity with respect to the Offer and the Mergers, then such Party will use reasonable best efforts to make, or cause to be made, as promptly as practicable and after reasonable consultation with the other Parties to this Agreement, an appropriate response to such request. To the extent permitted by Law, each Party shall furnish the other Parties with copies of all material correspondence, filings and communications (and memoranda setting forth the substance thereof) between it and any such Governmental Entity with respect to this Agreement and the Offer and the Mergers, and furnish the other Parties with such reasonable information and assistance as the other Parties may reasonably request in connection with its preparation of necessary filings or submissions of information to any such Governmental Entity; provided, however, that Parent and the Company may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other under this Section 6.5 as “Antitrust Counsel Only Material.” Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside antitrust counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers or directors of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials (Parent or the Company, as the case may be) or its legal counsel. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6.5, materials relating to any Antitrust Laws provided pursuant to this Section 6.5 may be redacted (i) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company and the Offer and the Mergers or other confidential information, (ii) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements, and (iii) as necessary to address reasonable privilege concerns.

(c) The Company and Parent will each request early termination of the waiting period with respect to the Offer under the HSR Act. The Company and Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to file, as promptly as practicable, but in any event no later than ten (10) Business Days after the date of this Agreement, all notifications required under the HSR Act. In the event that the Parties receive a request for information or documentary material pursuant to the HSR Act (a “Second Request”), the Parties will use their respective reasonable best efforts to respond to such Second Request as promptly as practicable or as otherwise agreed by the Company and Parent, and counsel for both Parties will closely cooperate during the entirety of any such Second Request review process.

Section 6.6. Takeover Statutes. If any Takeover Law is or may become applicable to the Offer or the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Parties and each of their respective Board of Directors shall grant such approvals and take such actions within such Party’s control as are permitted and necessary so that such transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize the effects of such statute or regulation on such transactions.

Section 6.7. Public Announcements. Unless a Company Adverse Recommendation Change has occurred, the initial press release concerning the Offer shall be a joint press release and, thereafter, so long as this Agreement is in effect, the Company will not disseminate any press release or other announcement concerning the Offer or this Agreement or the Transactions, except as may be required by Law, without the prior consent of Parent and Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

- 60 -

Notwithstanding the foregoing, without prior consent of the other parties, each party (a) may communicate information that is not confidential information of any other party with financial analysts, investors and media representatives in a manner consistent with its past practice in compliance with applicable Law or by the rules and regulations of Nasdaq, and (b) may disseminate the information included in a press release or other document previously approved for external distribution by the other parties. Each Party agrees to promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) make available to the other Parties copies of any written communications made without prior consultation with the other Parties. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (i) no Party will be required to consult with the other Party in connection with any such press release or announcement if the Company Board of Directors has effected any Company Adverse Recommendation Change or shall have resolved to do so and (ii) the requirements of this Section 6.7 shall not apply to any disclosure by the Company or Parent of any information concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in connection with a determination by the Company in accordance with Section 6.3 that an Company Takeover Proposal constitutes, or may constitute, a Company Superior Proposal or any dispute between the parties regarding this Agreement, the Offer or the Mergers or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 6.8. Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Parent and Purchaser agree that all rights to exculpation and indemnification (and all rights to advancement of expenses relating thereto) for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time (including any matters arising in connection with the Transactions), now existing in favor of the Indemnitees as provided in the Company Organizational Documents or in any Contract between such Indemnitee and the Company listed on Section 6.8 of the Company Disclosure Schedule (in each case as in effect on the date of this Agreement) shall survive the Mergers and shall continue in full force and effect. From and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to) indemnify, defend and hold harmless, and advance expenses to, Indemnitees with respect to (x) all acts or omissions by them in their capacities as such at any time at or prior to the Effective Time or (y) any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to the extent such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation arises out of or pertains to the Offer, the Mergers, this Agreement and any transactions contemplated hereby, in either case, in each of (x) and (y) to the extent provided in the Company Organizational Documents or in any Contract between such Indemnitee and the Company listed on Section 6.8 of the Company Disclosure Schedule (in each case as in effect on the date of this Agreement), and Parent shall guarantee the payment of such amounts to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law. For a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents of the Surviving Company to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and limitation of director, officer and employee liability that are no less favorable to the Indemnitees than those set forth in the Company Organizational Documents and the Contracts listed on Section 6.8 of the Company Disclosure Schedule as of the date of this Agreement, which provisions thereafter shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any Indemnitees.

- 61 -

(b) From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall obtain (either directly or through one of its Subsidiaries) and fully pay the premium for a six-year “tail” prepaid policy on terms and conditions no less advantageous to the Indemnitees than the existing directors’ and officers’ insurance policies and the Company’s existing fiduciary liability insurance policies (“D&O Insurance”) with respect to any claim related to any period of time at or prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that neither the Surviving Company nor Parent shall be required to pay for such “tail” prepaid policy more than two hundred fifty percent (250%) of the annual premium currently paid by the Company for its D&O Insurance or, if substantially equivalent or greater insurance coverage is unavailable, the best available coverage; provided, however, that Parent and the Surviving Company shall not be required to pay an annual premium for the D&O Insurance in excess of two hundred fifty percent (250%) of the annual premium currently paid by the Company for such insurance; provided, further, that if the annual premiums of such insurance coverage exceed such amount, Parent shall be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available, with respect to matters occurring prior to the Effective Time, for a cost not exceeding such amount. In the alternative, the Company may purchase fully-prepaid, and the Surviving Company shall maintain, for a period of at least six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, D&O Insurance in place as of the date of this Agreement with the Company’s current insurance carrier or a reputable alternative insurance carrier; provided, however, that the Company shall not be permitted to pay for such “tail” prepaid policy in excess of two hundred fifty percent (250%) of the annual premium currently paid by the Company for such insurance.

(c) The Indemnitees to whom this Section 6.8 applies shall be express third-party beneficiaries of this Section 6.8. The provisions of this Section 6.8 shall survive the Effective Time.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this Section 6.8 shall survive the consummation of the Mergers indefinitely and shall be binding, jointly and severally, on all successors and assigns of Parent, the Surviving Company and its subsidiaries, and shall be enforceable by the Indemnitees. In the event that Parent or the Surviving Company or any of its successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or transfers or conveys all or a majority of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Parent shall ensure that proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Company, as applicable, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 6.8.

Section 6.9. Control of Operations. The Parties understand and agree that (a) nothing contained in this Agreement shall give Parent or the Company, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the other Party’s operations (or the operations of the other Party’s Subsidiaries) prior to the Effective Time and (b) prior to the Effective Time, each of the Company and Parent shall exercise, consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over its operations.

- 62 -

Section 6.10. Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Expiration Date, Parent and the Company shall take all such steps as may be required to cause any dispositions of Company Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Company Common Stock) or acquisitions of shares of Parent Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Parent Common Stock) resulting from the Transactions by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company or will become subject to such reporting requirements with respect to Parent, to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Section 6.11. Transaction Litigation. The Company shall, as promptly as practicable under the circumstances, after it has notice of any of the following notify the Parent of actions, suits, claims, governmental investigations or proceedings instituted or threatened against the Company or any of its directors, officers or affiliates, including by any stockholder of the Company (by any stockholder and relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, “Stockholder Litigation”), before any court or Governmental Entity, relating to or involving or otherwise affecting the Company, any of its affiliates, or any of its subsidiaries which, if pending on the date of this Agreement, would have been required to have been disclosed pursuant to this Agreement or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, or seeking damages or discovery in connection with such transactions. Subject to entry into a customary joint defense agreement, Parent shall have the right to participate in the defense of any such actions, suits, claims, investigations or proceedings, the Company shall consult with Parent regarding the defense of any such actions, suits, claims, investigations or proceedings, and the Company may not settle or compromise any Stockholder Litigation without the prior written consent of Parent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, delayed or denied.

Section 6.12. Nasdaq Matters; SEC Matters.

(a) Parent shall file a notification of listing of additional shares (or such other form as may be required) with Nasdaq with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued in connection with the Offer and the First Merger and such other shares of Parent Common Stock to be reserved for issuance in connection with the Offer and the First Merger, and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued in connection with the Offer and the First Merger and such other shares of Parent Common Stock to be reserved for issuance in connection with the Offer and the First Merger to be approved for listing on Nasdaq, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the Acceptance Time.

(b) The Company shall cooperate with Parent and use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under applicable Laws and rules and policies of Nasdaq to enable the delisting of the Company Common Stock from Nasdaq and the termination of its registration under the Exchange Act, in each case, as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time (such period between the Closing Date and the date of which the Company Common Stock is delisted, the “Delisting Period”), and deregistration of the Company Common Stock under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable after such delisting. The Company will not cause the Company Common Stock to be delisted from Nasdaq prior to the Effective Time. If the Surviving Company is reasonably likely to be required to file any reports pursuant to the Exchange Act during the Delisting Period, the

- 63 -

Company will deliver to Parent at least five (5) business days prior to the Closing a substantially final draft of any such reports reasonably likely to be required to be filed during the Delisting Period.

(c) The Company shall file prior to the Effective Time all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed or furnished by it with the SEC prior to such time for the consummation of the Transactions.

Section 6.13. Additional Agreements. In case at any time after the Effective Time any further action is necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Company with full title to all properties, assets, rights, approvals, immunities and franchises of any of the Parties to the Mergers, the officers of the Surviving Company shall be authorized, in the name and on behalf of the Company, to execute and deliver such deeds, bills of sale, assignment or assurances and take all such other action as may be necessary in connection therewith.

Section 6.14. Advice of Changes. The Company and Parent shall each promptly advise the other Party of (i) any notice or other communication from any person alleging that the consent of such person is or may be required in connection with the Transactions or (ii) upon receiving any communication from any Governmental Entity or third party whose consent or approval is required for consummation of the Transactions that causes such Party to believe that there is a reasonable likelihood that any such consent or approval will not be obtained or that the receipt of any such consent or approval will be materially delayed.

Section 6.15. Resignations. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall cause any director and any officer of the Company or each subsidiary of the Company identified in writing by Parent at least five (5) Business Days prior to the anticipated Effective Time to execute and deliver a letter effectuating his or her resignation as a director or officer (but not as an employee) of such entity effective as of the Effective Time. At the request of Parent, the Company will use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with Parent to effect the replacement of any such directors and officers selected by Parent at the Effective Time.

Section 6.16. Third Party Consents. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to use reasonable best efforts, to obtain waivers and consents from any and all third parties with respect to each Contract listed on Section 4.19(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule; provided, that, in connection with obtaining such waivers and consents, the Company shall not agree to any change to such Contracts that would be materially adverse to the interest of the Company, its Subsidiaries or, after the Closing, Parent, without the prior written consent of Parent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or denied.

Section 6.17. Certain Tax Matters. Each of the Parties shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Offer and the Mergers, taken together, to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, including by executing and delivering customary tax representation letters to the Company’s and/or Parent’s counsel, as applicable, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such counsel, in connection with (i) any tax opinion or description of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Offer and the Mergers

- 64 -

Company and Parent shall cause their respective counsels to use reasonable best efforts to issue the tax opinions referenced in clauses (E)(5)(i) and (E)(5)(ii) of Annex A and any opinions related to the tax consequences of the Offer and Mergers for purposes of the Registration Statement. None of the Parties shall (and each of the Parties shall cause their respective Subsidiaries not to) (a) take any action that could reasonably be expected to cause the Offer and the Mergers, taken together, to fail to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, or to cause their respective counsel to be unable to deliver the tax opinions provided for in the preceding sentence, or (b) fail to take any action that could reasonably be expected to be necessary to cause the Offer and the Mergers, taken together, to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, or to cause their respective counsel to be able to deliver the tax opinions provided for in the preceding sentence.

ARTICLE VIII

TERMINATION

Section 8.1. Termination or Abandonment. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement may be terminated and the Offer and the Mergers may be abandoned at any time prior to the Acceptance Time:

(a) by the mutual written consent of the Company and Parent;

THIS SUPPORT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated November 21, 2016, is entered into between MACOM Technology Solutions Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Montana Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and direct wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Purchaser”), and (“Stockholder”), with respect to (i) the shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), of Applied Micro Circuits Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), (ii) all securities exchangeable, exercisable or convertible into Shares and (iii) any securities issued or exchanged with respect to such Shares, and upon any recapitalization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, spin-off, partial or complete liquidation, stock dividend, split-up or combination of the securities of the Company or upon any other change in the Company’s capital structure, in each case whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the Stockholder (collectively, the “Company Securities”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Parent, Purchaser, Montana Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Merger Sub Two”), and the Company have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be amended or supplemented, the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which Purchaser will commence an exchange offer (the “Offer”) to acquire all of the Shares and the corporate goodwill associated with such shares, and, following the consummation of the Offer, (i) Purchaser will merge with and into the Company (the “First Merger”) with the result that the Company survives the First

Merger and becomes a direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent; and (ii) immediately following the First Merger, the Company, as the surviving company of the First Merger, will merge with and into Merger Sub Two, with Merger Sub Two surviving the merger and becoming a direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Second Merger” and together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”);

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, Stockholder beneficially owns and has the power to dispose of the Company Securities set forth on Schedule I hereto and has the power to vote the Shares set forth thereon;

WHEREAS, Stockholder will benefit from the receipt of significant cash proceeds resulting from the consummation of the Offer, including an amount intended to compensate Stockholder for the value of the corporate goodwill associated with Stockholder’s Shares;

WHEREAS, as a condition and inducement to the willingness of Parent and Purchaser to enter into the Merger Agreement, Stockholder has agreed to execute and deliver this Agreement;

WHEREAS, Parent and Purchaser would incur a significant loss of the corporate goodwill associated with Stockholder’s Shares if Stockholder were to breach this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined have the meaning given to such terms in the Merger Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in contemplation of the foregoing and in consideration of the mutual agreements, covenants, representations and warranties contained herein and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Certain Covenants.

1.1 Company Securities Lock-Up.

(a) Subject to Section 1.3, except as contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Stockholder hereby covenants and agrees that between the date hereof and the Termination Date (as defined below), Stockholder will not (a) directly or indirectly, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, tender, encumber or otherwise dispose of or limit its right to vote in any manner any of the Company Securities, or agree to do any of the foregoing, or (b) take any action which would have the effect of preventing or disabling Stockholder from performing its obligations under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Stockholder may transfer any or all of his, her or its Company Securities as follows: (i) in the case of a Stockholder that is an entity, to any parent entity, subsidiary or affiliate under common control with such Stockholder, or to a partner or member of Stockholder, and (ii) in the case of a Stockholder that is an individual, to Stockholder’s spouse, ancestors, descendants or any trust for any of their benefits or to a charitable organization qualified under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or qualified as a charitable organization under the equivalent laws of Canada or its provinces; provided, however, that in any such case, prior to and as a condition to the effectiveness of such transfer, (A) each person to which any of such Company Securities or any interest in any of such Company Securities is or may be transferred shall have executed and delivered to Parent and Purchaser a counterpart to this Agreement pursuant to which such person shall be bound by all of the terms and provisions of this Section 1.1 of this Agreement, and (B) this Agreement shall be the legal, valid and binding agreement of such person, enforceable against such person in accordance with its terms. Any attempt by Stockholder to transfer any or all of the Company Securities or any interest therein in violation of this Section 1.1 shall be null and void, regardless of whether the proposed transferee has any actual or constructive knowledge of the transfer restrictions set forth in this Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company and its transfer agent are hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of Company Securities if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Section 1.1.

1.2 Certain Events. This Agreement and the obligations hereunder will attach to the Company Securities and will be binding upon any person to which legal or beneficial ownership of any or all of the Company Securities passes, whether by operation of Law or otherwise, including without limitation, Stockholder’s successors or assigns. This Agreement and the obligations hereunder will also attach to any additional Shares or other Company Securities of the Company issued to or acquired by Stockholder.

1.3 Tender of Company Securities. Stockholder agrees, in exchange for the consideration described in the Merger Agreement, (a) to promptly (and, in any event, not later than ten (10) Business Days) following the commencement of the Offer validly tender (and deliver any certificates evidencing) the Shares owned, or cause such Shares to be validly tendered, as of the date hereof and set forth on Schedule I hereto to Purchaser in the Offer, pursuant to and in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Offer Documents, free and

clear of any Liens, and (b) if Stockholder thereafter acquires any additional Shares prior to the Acceptance Time, to promptly (and in any event, not later than two (2) Business Days after Stockholder acquires such additional Shares) validly tender (and deliver any certificates evidencing) such Shares, or cause such Shares to be validly tendered, into the Offer pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Offer, free and clear of any Liens. Unless this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms, Stockholder shall not withdraw, and not permit to be withdrawn, any such Shares so tendered unless the Offer is terminated.

1.4 Public Announcement. Stockholder shall consult with Parent before issuing any press releases or otherwise making any public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated herein and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the approval of Parent, except as may be required by Law, including any filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). This Section 1.4 shall terminate and be null and void upon the earlier of (i) the Termination Date and (ii) consummation of the Mergers.

1.5 Disclosure. Stockholder hereby authorizes Parent and Purchaser to publish and disclose in any announcement or disclosure required by the SEC, The Nasdaq Global Select Market or any other national securities exchange and in the Offer Documents (including all documents and schedules filed with the SEC in connection with the foregoing), its identity and ownership of the Company Securities and the nature of its commitments, arrangements and understandings under this Agreement. Parent and Purchaser hereby authorize Stockholder to make such disclosure or filings as may be required by the SEC or The Nasdaq Global Select Market or any other national securities exchange.

1.6 Withdrawal Rights. Stockholder agrees that once the Shares are tendered in the Offer, Stockholder shall promptly notify Parent that such Shares have been tendered.

If Stockholder is married and the Company Securities constitute community property, this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Stockholder’s spouse, and this Agreement is a legal, valid and binding agreement of Stockholder’s spouse, enforceable against Stockholder’s spouse in accordance with its terms, subject to (i) laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and other laws affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (ii) rules of law governing specific performance, injunctive relief and other equitable remedies.

2.3 No Violation.

No proceedings are pending which, if adversely determined, will have an adverse effect on Stockholder’s ability to vote or dispose of any of the Company Securities. The Stockholder has not previously assigned or sold any of the Company Securities set forth on Schedule I hereto to any third party.

2.4 Stockholder Has Adequate Information. Stockholder is a sophisticated seller with respect to the Company Securities and has adequate information concerning the business and financial condition of the Company to make an informed decision regarding the sale of the Company Securities and has independently and without reliance upon either Purchaser or Parent and based on such information as Stockholder has deemed appropriate, made its own analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Stockholder acknowledges that neither Purchaser nor Parent has made and neither makes any representation or warranty, whether express or implied, of any kind or character except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. Stockholder acknowledges that the agreements contained herein with respect to the Company Securities by Stockholder are irrevocable (prior to the Termination Date), and that Stockholder shall have no recourse to the Company Securities, Parent or Purchaser, except with respect to breaches of representations, warranties, covenants and agreements expressly set forth in this Agreement.

4. Survival of Representations and Warranties. The respective representations and warranties of Stockholder, Parent and Purchaser contained herein shall not be deemed waived or otherwise affected by any investigation made by the other party hereto.

5. Specific Performance. Stockholder acknowledges that Purchaser and Parent will be irreparably harmed and that there will be no adequate remedy at law for a violation of any of the covenants or agreements of Stockholder which are contained in this Agreement.

MACOM to benefit from over $600 million of tax net operating loss carry forwards

Commenting on the transaction, John Croteau, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “This transaction will accelerate and expand MACOM’s breakout opportunity in Enterprise and Cloud Data Centers. MACOM will now be able to provide all the requisite semiconductor content for optical networks - analog, photonic and PHY - from the switch to fiber for long haul,

metro, access, backhaul and Data Center. AppliedMicro’s 100G to 400G single-lambda PAM4 platform should perfectly complement MACOM’s leadership in analog and photonic components for Data Centers.

Notably, the IEEE recently recommended the adoption of AppliedMicro’s single lambda PAM4 solution to be an industry standard for enterprise and Data Center connectivity, positioning this technology as the solution of choice going forward. Additionally, AppliedMicro’s Connectivity business aligns well with MACOM’s differentiated, high-growth business model, offering non-GAAP gross margins well in excess of MACOM’s long term target operating model, long product life cycles, and sticky customer relationships.”

“AppliedMicro also provides value-added technologies including SerDes, high speed analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters with industry-leading engineering competencies and long product lifecycles. Importantly, we expect that this transaction will establish MACOM with an incumbent position supplying strategic components and enterprise and cloud Data Center customers.”

MACOM intends to divest AppliedMicro’s well-positioned Compute business within 100 days from closing the transaction, as the business does not strategically align with MACOM’s long-term focus. AppliedMicro has been exploring strategic options for the Compute business and there is known strategic interest among several potential buyers and investors. MACOM will continue to support Compute customers and partners during this transition.

“This is an exciting day for AppliedMicro, and we are pleased to be joining forces with MACOM. The transaction affirms the value that our employees have created and provides a strong path forward for our Connectivity business while delivering AppliedMicro stockholders a robust premium,” said Paramesh Gopi, President and CEO, AppliedMicro. “This transaction will create an industry powerhouse with the scale, deep customer relationships, innovative technology, and enabling products that will help deliver explosive growth in Enterprise and Cloud Data Centers. In addition, this agreement provides a promising path forward for the Compute business, which is in the process of bringing AppliedMicro’s highly-competitive third-generation X-Gene processor to market. X-Gene is well-positioned to address the large opportunity for mainstream server processors with its proven high performance cores, scalable interconnect and high per socket memory capabilities.”

MACOM intends to commence a tender offer to purchase each outstanding common share of AppliedMicro for approximately $8.36 per share, consisting of $3.25 in cash and 0.1089 MACOM shares per share of AppliedMicro. MACOM will assume certain equity awards held by AppliedMicro employees. The transaction value is approximately $770 million in diluted equity value, or approximately $688 million net of AppliedMicro’s cash position of approximately $82 million as of September 30, 2016. The transaction is expected to be accretive to MACOM’s non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating margin and non-GAAP EPS in fiscal year 2017, excluding the Compute business. AppliedMicro stockholders are expected to own approximately 15% of the combined company on a pro forma basis. MACOM expects to pay the

cash portion of the acquisition price from cash on hand. The boards of directors of both companies have approved the transaction, which is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. MACOM currently expects the transaction to close in the first calendar quarter of 2017.

Forward-looking statements in this document include, among other things, statements about the potential benefits of the proposed acquisition and the anticipated timing of closing of the acquisition. Risks and uncertainties include, among other things, risks related to the satisfaction of the conditions to closing the acquisition (including the failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals) in the anticipated timeframe or at all, including uncertainties as to how many of AppliedMicro’s stockholders will tender their shares in the tender offer and the possibility that the acquisition does not close; risks related to the ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the acquisition, including the possibility that the expected benefits from the proposed acquisition will not be realized or will not be realized within the expected time period; the risk that the businesses will not be integrated successfully; disruption from the transaction making it more difficult to maintain business and operational relationships; negative effects of this announcement or the consummation of the proposed acquisition on the market price of MACOM’s common stock and on MACOM’s operating results; significant transaction costs; unknown liabilities; the risk of litigation and/or regulatory actions related to the proposed acquisition; other business effects, including the effects of industry, market, economic, political or regulatory conditions; future exchange and interest rates; changes in tax and other laws, regulations, rates and policies; future business combinations or disposals; the uncertainties inherent in research and development, including the ability to sustain and increase the rate of growth in revenues for AppliedMicro products; and competitive developments.

A further description of risks and uncertainties relating to MACOM and AppliedMicro can be found in their respective Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively, and in their subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, all of which are filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and available at www.sec.gov.

We make references in this presentation to certain financial information calculated on a basis other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP), including non-GAAP gross margin, operating margin and EPS. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance the user’s overall understanding of the potential impact of the AppliedMicro transaction. We are unable to provide a quantitative reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because we cannot reliably forecast transaction, integration and other costs related to the AppliedMicro transaction, which are difficult to predict and estimate.
