Item 1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Agreement and Plan of Merger

On June 9, 2014, Analog Devices, Inc. (the “Company”) and its newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary, BBAC Corp. (the “Purchaser”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Hittite Microwave Corporation (“Hittite”), pursuant to which the Purchaser will commence a cash tender offer (the “Offer”) to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Hittite, par value $0.01 per share, at a price of $78.00 per share, net to the seller in cash, without interest (such amount, the “Offer Price”). Following the consummation of the Offer, the Purchaser will merge with and into Hittite (the “Merger”), and all shares of Hittite common stock not acquired in the Offer (other than shares held by holders who have properly exercised their appraisal rights under Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law) will convert into the right to receive the Offer Price. Hittite will survive the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Merger Agreement includes customary representations, warranties and covenants by the parties.

Under the Merger Agreement, the Purchaser is obligated to commence the Offer within 10 business days after the date of the Merger Agreement. The Offer will expire 20 business days after its commencement, subject to extension in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement.

The obligations of the Company and the Purchaser to accept for payment and pay for the shares of Hittite common stock tendered in the Offer and to complete the Merger are subject to customary conditions, including, among other things: (i) at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Hittite common stock (assuming that shares issuable in respect of vested Hittite restricted stock units and options are outstanding) shall have been validly tendered in accordance with the terms of the Offer and not properly withdrawn, (ii) the expiration or termination of applicable waiting periods under antitrust laws in the United States and Germany, (iii) the absence of injunctions or other restraints prohibiting the transactions, (iv) the accuracy of representations and warranties made by Hittite in the Merger Agreement, (v) compliance by Hittite with its covenants in the Merger Agreement and (vi) the absence of a material adverse effect on Hittite. The Company’s and the Purchaser’s obligations are not subject to a financing condition.

Under the Merger Agreement, the Company is entitled to receive a termination fee of $86.5 million if (i) the Company terminates the Merger Agreement due to a change in the Hittite board’s recommendation; (ii) the Company terminates the Merger Agreement due to an intentional breach in any material respect of any of the non-solicitation obligations in the Merger Agreement, (iii) Hittite terminates the Merger Agreement to accept a superior proposal; or (iv) Hittite receives an alternative acquisition proposal prior to termination of the Merger Agreement and the Merger Agreement is terminated by either party because the outside date occurs or Hittite has breached its representations, warranties or covenants and, within one year after such termination, Hittite enters into a definitive agreement to consummate, or consummates, any alternative acquisition proposal.

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 as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties, covenants and other terms, provisions and conditions that the Company and Hittite made to each other as of specific dates. The assertions embodied therein were made solely for purposes of the Merger Agreement, and may be subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the Company and Hittite in connection with negotiating their respective terms. Moreover, they may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality that may be different from what may be viewed as material to stockholders, or may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk between the Company and Hittite rather than establishing matters as facts. For the foregoing reasons, no person should rely on such representations, warranties, covenants or other terms, provisions or conditions as statements of factual information at the time they were made or otherwise.

Commitment Letter

Also on June 9, 2014 and in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Company executed a commitment letter (the “Commitment Letter”) with Credit Suisse AG and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (collectively, “Credit Suisse”), pursuant to which Credit Suisse has committed to provide the Company with a 90-day term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $2 billion to fund, in part, the Company’s acquisition of Hittite pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Amounts drawn under the facility will bear interest, at the Company’s option, at LIBOR plus 1.00% or a rate equal to the highest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (c) 30-day LIBOR plus 1.00%. The Company expects that a subsidiary of the Company will assume the loan under the facility and repay it out of existing cash balances on or before maturity. The foregoing description of the Commitment Letter does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Commitment Letter, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 8.01.

These documents will contain important information about the Company, Hittite, the Offer and the Merger and other related matters. Investors and security holders are urged to read each of these documents carefully when they are available. Investors and security holders will be able to obtain free copies of the Tender Offer Statement, the Tender Offer Solicitation/Recommendation Statement and other documents filed with the SEC by the Company and Hittite through the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements, which address a variety of subjects including, for example, the expected timetable for the closing of the transaction between the Company and Hittite, the expected benefits and synergies of the transaction, including the effect of the transaction on the Company’s non-GAAP earnings, the Company’s expected product development and technical advances resulting from the transaction, the availability of debt financing for the transaction and the Company’s guidance for the remainder of fiscal year 2014. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about the Company’s beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on the Company’s current expectations and are subject to a number of factors and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements. The following important factors and uncertainties, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements: the closing of the transaction is subject to the tender of shares by Hittite stockholders representing at least a majority of the outstanding shares (assuming that shares issuable in respect of vested Hittite restricted stock units and options are outstanding); the receipt of regulatory approvals, and other closing conditions, the non-satisfaction of which may delay or prevent the closing of the transaction; the transaction may involve unexpected costs; the expected benefits of the transaction may not be achieved in a timely manner, or at all; Hittite’s business may not be

successfully integrated with the Company’s following the closing; and disruption from the transaction may adversely affect Hittite’s relationships with its customers, suppliers or employees. For additional information about factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements, please refer to both the Company’s and Hittite’s filings with the SEC, including the risk factors contained in each of the Company’s and Hittite’s most recent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Forward-looking statements represent management’s current expectations and are inherently uncertain. Except as required by law, the Company does not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements made by it.

WHEREAS, the board of directors of the Company (the “Company Board”) has unanimously (a) adopted, approved and declared the advisability of this Agreement, the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement collectively, the “Transactions”), (b) declared that it is in the best interests of the Company and the stockholders of the Company that the Company enter into this Agreement and consummate the Transactions and that the stockholders of the Company tender their shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to the Offer, in each case on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, (c) declared that the terms of the Offer and the Merger are fair to the Company and the Company’s stockholders and (d) resolved to recommend that the Company’s stockholders accept the Offer and tender their shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to the Offer;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, the Parent, the Purchaser and the Company, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE OFFER

1.1 The Offer.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, within ten business days after the date of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall commence (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), the Offer. On the terms and subject to the prior satisfaction or waiver of the conditions of the Offer and this Agreement, the Purchaser shall accept for payment all shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer as soon as practicable after the Expiration Date and shall pay the Offer Price for all such shares of Company Common Stock as soon as practicable after acceptance and in compliance with applicable laws. The obligation of the Parent and the Purchaser to accept for payment and pay the Offer Price for shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer shall be subject to the conditions set forth in Annex I to this Agreement (the “Offer Conditions”). The first time that the Purchaser accepts for payment shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer is referred to herein as the “Acceptance Time.”

(b) The initial expiration date of the Offer shall be the 20^th business day after commencement of the Offer (determined in accordance with Rules 14d-1(g)(3) and 14d-2 under the Exchange Act) (such date and the time on which the Offer expires on such date, the “Initial Expiration Date”). The Purchaser expressly reserves the right, subject to compliance with the Exchange Act, to waive, amend or modify any term or condition of the Offer in its sole discretion; provided, however, that, without the prior written consent of the Company, the Purchaser shall not:

(i) change the form of consideration payable in the Offer, decrease the Offer Price or decrease the number of shares of Company Common Stock sought pursuant to the Offer;

(ii) extend the Expiration Date except (A) as required by applicable law (including for any period required by any rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or the staff thereof), (B) that if, immediately prior to the scheduled Expiration Date, any condition to the Offer has not been satisfied or waived, the Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, extend the Expiration Date for one or more periods (not in excess of ten business days each) but in no event later than the Outside Date, or (C) in connection with an increase in the consideration to be paid pursuant to the Offer so as to comply with applicable rules and regulations of the SEC; provided, however, that, subject to the right of the Parent and the Purchaser to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.1, if immediately prior to any scheduled Expiration Date, one or more Offer Conditions have not been satisfied or waived by the Parent or the Purchaser, then at the request of the Company, the Parent shall cause the Purchaser to extend the Expiration Date for one or (as needed)

- 2 -

more consecutive periods of five business days each (or such shorter period as the Company may agree or such longer period as the Company and the Parent may agree) in order to permit the satisfaction of any such Offer Condition, except that if immediately prior to any scheduled Expiration Date, all Offer Conditions (except the Minimum Condition) have been satisfied or waived by the Parent or the Purchaser, then the Parent’s obligations to extend the Expiration Date shall be limited to causing the Purchaser to extend the Expiration Date for one period of ten business days to permit the satisfaction of the Minimum Condition, and if at the end of such ten business day period, the Minimum Condition continues to not be satisfied, to causing the Purchaser to extend the Expiration Date for one additional period of ten business days to permit the satisfaction of the Minimum Condition, after which, if the Minimum Condition remains unsatisfied, the Purchaser shall not be required to extend the Expiration Date (it being understood that, in no event, shall the Parent or the Purchaser be required to extend the Expiration Date to a date that is later than the Outside Date notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement);

(iii) waive or change the Minimum Condition;

(iv) amend any term of the Offer in any manner materially adverse to the Company or to holders of shares of Company Common Stock; or

(v) impose any condition to the Offer not set forth in Annex I.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Expiration Date” means the Initial Expiration Date or, if the Initial Expiration Date has been extended pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement, the date and time to which the Offer has been so extended.

ARTICLE III

CONVERSION OF SECURITIES

3.1 Effect of Merger of Capital Stock.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any shares of the capital stock of the Company or capital stock of the Purchaser:

(i) each share of the Purchaser’s capital stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of the same class of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation;

(ii) each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that is owned by the Parent, the Purchaser or the Company or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent, the Purchaser or the Company, including all shares of Company Common Stock held by the Company as treasury stock, shall automatically be cancelled, and no payment shall be made with respect thereto; and

(iii) each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares of Company Common Stock to be cancelled pursuant to clause (ii) above and any Dissenting Shares) shall be automatically cancelled and extinguished and be converted into and become the right to receive the Merger Consideration. As of the Effective Time, all such shares of Company Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall be automatically cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any such shares of Company Common Stock (each, a “Certificate”) and each holder of any

- 7 -

such shares of Company Common Stock held in book entry form immediately prior to the Effective Time (“Book Entry Shares”) shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Section 3.1(a)(iii) upon surrender of such Certificate or such Book Entry Shares in accordance with Section 3.2, without interest and subject to any applicable withholding rights in accordance with Section 3.2(g).

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares (the “Dissenting Shares”) of the Company’s Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are held by any holder who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such shares pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL (“Section 262”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 3.1(a)(iii), but instead such holder shall be entitled to payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262. At the Effective Time, all Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of Dissenting Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the fair value of such shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such holder shall fail to perfect or otherwise shall waive, withdraw or lose the right to appraisal under Section 262 or a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 262, then the right of such holder to be paid the fair value of such holder’s Dissenting Shares under Section 262 shall cease and such Dissenting Shares shall be deemed to have been converted at the Effective Time into, and shall have become, the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 3.1(a)(iii), without interest. The Company shall give the Parent and the Purchaser prompt notice of any demands for payment, or notices of intent to demand payment, received by the Company with respect to the Dissenting Shares, and the Parent and the Purchaser shall have the right to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Parent and the Purchaser, make any payment with respect to, or settle, or offer to settle, any such demands, or agree to do any of the foregoing.

(c) In connection with the Merger, each option to purchase Company Common Stock (a “Company Stock Option”) that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each restricted stock award with respect to Company Common Stock (a “Company RSA”) that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and each restricted stock unit with respect to Company Common Stock (a “Company RSU”) that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be treated in the manner set forth in Section 7.10.

3.2 Exchange of Certificates. The procedures for exchanging outstanding shares of Company Common Stock for the Merger Consideration pursuant to the Merger are as follows:

(a) Paying Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, the Parent shall select a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as agent (it being understood that the transfer agent for the Company Common Stock is reasonably acceptable to the Company for such purpose) (the “Paying Agent”) for the payment after the Effective Time of the Merger

- 8 -

Consideration upon surrender of Certificates or Book Entry Shares. The Parent shall enter into an agreement with the Paying Agent relating to the services to be performed by the Paying Agent. At or prior to the Effective Time, the Parent shall deposit with the Paying Agent sufficient cash necessary for payment of the aggregate Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(iii) (such cash being hereinafter referred to as the “Payment Fund”).

(b) Exchange Procedures. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Paying Agent shall mail to each holder of record of a Certificate or of Book Entry Shares (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to a Certificate shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificate to the Paying Agent and, in the case of Book Entry Shares, delivery shall be effected and risk of loss and title shall pass only upon adherence to the procedures set forth in the letter of transmittal, and which letter of transmittal shall be in such customary form and have such other provisions as the Parent may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Certificates and Book Entry Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration. Surrender of any Book Entry Shares shall be effected in accordance with the Paying Agent’s customary procedures with respect to securities represented by book entry. Upon surrender of a Certificate or Book Entry Shares for cancellation to the Paying Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by the Parent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and properly executed, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Paying Agent, the holder of such Certificate or Book Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount of cash equal to the Merger Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(iii), and the Certificate or Book Entry Shares so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Common Stock that is not registered in the stock transfer records of the Company, payment may be made to a person other than the person in whose name the Certificate or Book Entry Shares so surrendered is or are registered if, in the case of a Certificate, such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer, or, in the case of Book Entry Shares, the person in whose name such Book Entry Shares are registered shall have delivered to the Paying Agent instruments of transfer in such form as the Paying Agent may require in accordance with its customary procedures for the transfer for securities represented by book entry, and, in each case, the person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the payment to a person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Book Entry Shares or establish to the satisfaction of the Parent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.2, each Certificate and all Book Entry Shares shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the amount of cash, without interest, into which the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate or Book Entry Shares have been converted pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(iii). No interest shall be paid or shall accrue on the cash payable upon surrender of any Certificate or Book Entry Shares.

(c) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. The Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender of a Certificate or Book Entry Shares in accordance with the terms of this Article III shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate or Book Entry Shares. Upon the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Common Stock

- 9 -

that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, any Certificates or Book Entry Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article III.

(d) Termination of Payment Fund. Any portion of the Payment Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of Certificates and Book Entry Shares for one year after the Effective Time shall be delivered by the Paying Agent to the Parent, upon demand, and any holder of a Certificate or Book Entry Shares who has not theretofore complied with this Article III shall thereafter look only to the Parent or the Surviving Corporation for payment of the Merger Consideration, but shall have no greater rights against the Parent than may be accorded to general unsecured creditors of the Parent under applicable law.

(e) No Liability. None of the Parent, the Purchaser, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any person in respect of any cash from the Payment Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. If any Certificate or any Book Entry Shares have not been surrendered as of such time on which the Merger Consideration in respect of such Certificate or Book Entry Shares would (but for this sentence) escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, any such cash in respect of such Certificate or Book Entry Shares shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto, as of immediately prior to such time.

(f) Investments of Payment Fund. The Paying Agent shall invest any cash included in the Payment Fund as directed by the Parent; provided, that (i) no such investment or losses thereon shall affect the Merger Consideration payable to the holders of the shares of Company Common Stock, (ii) following any such losses that result in the amount of funds in the Payment Fund being insufficient to promptly pay the portion of the aggregate Merger Consideration that remains unpaid, the Parent shall promptly provide additional funds to the Paying Agent to the extent of such insufficiency, and (iii) such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America or in commercial paper obligations rated P-1 or A-1 or better by Moody’s Investor Services, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to and be the property of the Parent. The Payment Fund shall not be used for any other purpose, except as provided in this Agreement.

(g) Withholding Rights. The Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld by any of them with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any other applicable law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority by the Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the shares of Company Common Stock in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent.

- 10 -

3.3 Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent shall pay to such holder the Merger Consideration required pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(iii), in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof with such customary assurances as the Parent or Paying Agent, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of the Merger Consideration, may require of the holder of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate.

For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that the terms “material”, “materially” or “materiality” as used in this Agreement with an initial lower case “m” shall have their respective customary and ordinary meanings, without regard to the meanings ascribed to Company Material Adverse Effect in the prior sentence of this paragraph.

ARTICLE VII

ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

7.1 No Solicitation.

(a) Except as set forth in this Section 7.1, the Company shall not, nor shall it authorize or permit any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their directors, officers and employees to, and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Company’s investment bankers, attorneys, accountants or other advisors, agents or representatives (such directors, officers, employees, investment bankers, attorneys, accountants, other advisors, agents and representatives, collectively, “Representatives”) not to, directly or indirectly:

(i) solicit, initiate, propose, knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate any inquiries or the making of any proposal or offer that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal, including (A) approving any transaction under Section 203 of the DGCL and (B) approving any person becoming an “interested stockholder” under Section 203 of the DGCL; or

(ii) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any communications, discussions or negotiations regarding, furnish to any person any information or data with respect to, knowingly assist or participate in any effort or attempt by any person with respect to, or otherwise knowingly cooperate in any way with, any Acquisition Proposal.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company may, to the extent required by the fiduciary obligations of the Company Board, as reasonably determined in good faith by the Company Board after consultation with outside counsel, in response to a bona fide, unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal made or received after the date of this Agreement that the Company Board reasonably determines in good faith after consultation with outside counsel and the Financial Advisor or another nationally recognized independent financial advisor is, or would reasonably be expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal, in each case that did not result from a breach by the Company of this Section 7.1, and not earlier than 24 hours after providing the notice contemplated by Section 7.1(c),

- 52 -

(x) furnish information or data with respect to the Company to the person or group of persons making such Acquisition Proposal and its Representatives pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement not less restrictive of the other party than the Confidentiality Agreement (provided that such confidentiality agreement shall not be required to restrict a person from privately communicating an Acquisition Proposal to the Company, the Company Board or any committee thereof, and provided further that such confidentiality agreement and any related agreements shall not include any provision having the effect of or otherwise prohibiting the Company from complying with any provisions of this Section 7.1) and (y) participate in communications, discussions or negotiations with such person and its Representatives regarding such Acquisition Proposal. Without limiting the foregoing, it is agreed that any violation of the restrictions set forth in this Section 7.1(a) by any Representative of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, whether or not such person is purporting to act on behalf of the Company or otherwise, shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 7.1(a) by the Company.

(b) Neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall:

(i) except as set forth in this Section 7.1(b), withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify, or resolve, agree or publicly propose to withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify, in a manner adverse to the Parent or the Purchaser, the approval or recommendation by the Company Board or any such committee (x) of this Agreement or the Transactions or (y) that the stockholders accept the Offer and tender their shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to the Offer;

(ii) cause or permit the Company to enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement or similar agreement (an “Acquisition Agreement”) constituting or relating to, or that could reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to in Section 7.1(a) entered into in the circumstances referred to in Section 7.1(a));

(iii) withdraw or modify, or resolve, agree or publicly propose to withdraw or modify, the approval by the Compensation Committee of the Company Compensation Arrangements as Approved Company Compensation Arrangements for purposes of satisfying the requirements of the non-exclusive safe-harbor in accordance to Rule 14d-10(d)(2) under the Exchange Act; or

(iv) adopt, approve or recommend, or resolve, agree or publicly propose to adopt, approve or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal, except for a Superior Proposal for which the Company enters into a definitive agreement simultaneously with the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.1(d)(ii).

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, provided the Company shall not have breached in any material respect any of its obligations under this Section 7.1, the Company Board may withdraw or modify the recommendation by the Company Board or any committee thereof of this Agreement or the Transactions in circumstances where the Company Board has

- 53 -

determined that a Superior Proposal is outstanding, if (A) (1) the Company Board reasonably determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel and the Financial Advisor or another nationally recognized independent financial advisor, that its fiduciary obligations require it to do so, but only at a time that is prior to the Acceptance Time and is after the fourth business day following the Parent’s receipt of written notice (an “Adverse Recommendation Notice”) advising the Parent that the Company Board desires to withdraw or modify the recommendation (and the manner and timing in which it intends to do so) (such four business day period, the “Notice Period”), and (2) the Company provides the Parent with a reasonable opportunity to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement during the Notice Period and negotiates in good faith with the Parent with respect thereto during the Notice Period, in each case as would enable the Company Board or committee thereof to proceed with its recommendation in favor of this Agreement and the Transactions, and (B) (1) such withdrawal is due to the existence of a Superior Proposal, and the Company has complied with the requirements of Section 7.1(c), including specifying the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal and identifying the person making such Superior Proposal, and (2) the Parent shall not have, at or prior to the end of the Notice Period, made an offer or proposal that the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial and legal advisors) to be at least as favorable to the Company’s stockholders from a financial point of view as such Superior Proposal taking into account all relevant considerations. Any changes to the financial terms or any material change to the other terms of such Superior Proposal occurring prior to the Company Board’s effecting a Company Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 7.1(b) shall require the Company to provide to the Parent a new Adverse Recommendation Notice and a new Notice Period and to comply with the requirements of this Section 7.1(b) with respect to each such Adverse Recommendation Notice, except that in each such case the references above to “fourth business day” and “four business day period” shall be deemed to be “third business day” and “three business day period”. In addition, and notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company Board may in response to a material development or change in circumstances occurring or arising after the date hereof that affects the business, assets or operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that was neither known to the Company Board nor reasonably foreseeable as of or prior to the date hereof (and not relating to any Acquisition Proposal) (such material development or change in circumstances, an “Intervening Event”), withdraw or modify its recommendation of this Agreement or the Transactions if the Company Board has concluded in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel and the Financial Advisor or another nationally recognized independent financial advisor, that, in light of such Intervening Event, its fiduciary obligations require it to take such action; provided that, the Company Board shall not be entitled to take such action pursuant to this sentence unless the Company has (x) provided to the Parent at least four business days’ prior written notice advising the Parent that the Company Board intends to take such action and specifying the reasons therefor in reasonable detail and (y) during such four business day period, if requested by the Parent, engaged in good faith negotiations with the Parent to amend this Agreement in such a manner that obviates the need for taking such action as a result of the Intervening Event. Any Company Adverse Recommendation Change shall not change the approval of this Agreement or any other approval of the Company Board, including in any respect that would have the effect of causing any state (including Delaware) corporate takeover statute or other similar statute to be applicable to any of the Transactions.

- 54 -

(c) The Company shall promptly advise the Parent orally, with written confirmation to follow within 24 hours, of any Acquisition Proposal or any request for nonpublic information in connection with any Acquisition Proposal, or any inquiry with respect to or that could reasonably be expected to lead to any Acquisition Proposal, the material terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposal or inquiry and the identity of the person making any such Acquisition Proposal or inquiry. The Company shall (i) keep the Parent reasonably informed of the status and material details (including any change to the financial terms or any material change to the other terms) of any such Acquisition Proposal or inquiry, (ii) provide to the Parent as soon as practicable (and in any event within 24 hours) after receipt or delivery thereof copies of all written Acquisition Proposals or responses thereto, draft documentation (including with respect to the financing of any such Acquisition Proposal) and other material written material sent by or provided to the Company or its Representatives, including those provided by electronic mail, to or from any third party in connection with any Acquisition Proposal or sent or provided by the Company or its Representatives to any third party in connection with any Acquisition Proposal and (iii) if the Parent shall make a counterproposal, consider in good faith the terms of such counterproposal. Contemporaneously with providing any information to a third party in connection with any such Acquisition Proposal or inquiry, the Company shall (i) make available to the Parent such information provided to the third party in writing and (ii) make available to the Parent such information provided to the third party other than in writing that was not previously provided to the Parent. The Company agrees that it shall not, and shall not permit its Subsidiaries to, enter into any agreement that prohibits or restricts it from providing to the Parent the information contemplated by, or otherwise complying with, this Section 7.1(c) or Section 7.1(b).

(d) Nothing contained in Section 7.1 shall be deemed to prohibit the Company from issuing a “stop, look and listen” communication pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act or taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position with respect to a tender offer contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or from making any required disclosure to the Company’s stockholders if, in the good faith judgment of the Company Board, after consultation with outside counsel, failure to so disclose would violate its obligations under applicable law; provided, however, that, in no event shall the Company Board or any committee thereof take, or agree or resolve to take, any action prohibited by Section 7.1(b). For the avoidance of doubt, a factually accurate public statement that describes the receipt of an Acquisition Proposal and the operation of this Agreement with respect thereto (so long as it includes a reaffirmation of the recommendation of the Company Board of this Agreement and does not include a recommendation of such Acquisition Proposal) shall not be deemed a Company Adverse Recommendation Change.

(e) The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their directors, officers and employees to, and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Company’s other Representatives to, cease immediately all communications, discussions and negotiations regarding any proposal that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to have all copies of all nonpublic data and information it or its Subsidiaries and its and their Representatives have distributed on or prior to the date of this Agreement to other potential purchasers returned to the Company as soon as possible.

(f) For purposes of this Agreement:

“Acquisition Proposal” means any inquiry, proposal or offer for any transaction or series of related transactions (other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) involving: (i) the purchase or other acquisition by any person or “group” (as defined in or under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 15% of the shares of Company Common Stock outstanding as of the consummation of such purchase or other acquisition, or any tender offer or exchange offer by any person or “group” (as defined in or under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) that, if consummated in accordance with its terms, would result in such person or “group” beneficially owning more than 15% of the shares of Company Common Stock outstanding as of the consummation of such tender or exchange offer; (ii) a merger, consolidation, joint venture, recapitalization, business combination or other similar transaction involving the Company pursuant to which the stockholders of the Company immediately preceding such transaction hold less than 85% of the voting equity interests in the surviving or resulting entity of such transaction; (iii) a sale, transfer, acquisition or disposition of more than 15% of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (measured by the fair market value thereof); or (iv) a liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

“Superior Proposal” means any unsolicited, bona fide written proposal made by a third party to acquire at least a majority of the equity securities or assets of the Company, pursuant to a tender or exchange offer, a merger, consolidation, share exchange, sale of its assets or other business combination, (i) on terms which the Company Board determines in its good faith judgment in light of all relevant considerations to be more favorable from a financial point of view to the holders of Company Common Stock than the Transactions (after consultation with the Financial Advisor or another nationally recognized independent financial advisor), taking into account all the terms and conditions of such proposal and this Agreement (including any binding proposal by the Parent to amend the terms of this Agreement) and (ii) that is reasonably capable of being completed on the terms proposed, taking into account all financial, regulatory, legal and other aspects of such proposal; provided, however, that no Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be a Superior Proposal unless the Company Board shall have determined in good faith that any financing required to consummate the Acquisition Proposal is or will be available taking into account the timing of the consummation of the transactions proposed by such Acquisition Proposal.

7.2 Rule 14d-10 Matters. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not, from and after the date hereof and until the Effective Time, enter into, establish, amend or modify any Company Compensation Arrangement, unless prior to such entry into, establishment, amendment or modification, the Compensation Committee (each member of which shall be determined by the Company Board to be an “independent director” within the meaning of the applicable NASDAQ rules and shall be an “independent director” in accordance with the requirements of Rule 14d-10(d)(2) under the Exchange Act at the time of any such action) shall have taken all such steps as may reasonably be necessary to (a) approve as an Approved Company Compensation Arrangement each such Company Compensation Arrangement and (b) otherwise satisfy the requirements of the non-exclusive safe harbor under Rule 14d-10(d)(2) under the Exchange Act with respect to Company Compensation Arrangement; provided that nothing in this Section 7.2 shall be construed to permit the Company to take any action that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

Unless otherwise required by law, the Parent will hold any such information which is nonpublic in confidence in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to secure for the Company access to and copies of the workpapers of its independent public accountants. No information or knowledge obtained in any investigation pursuant to this Section or otherwise shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty contained in the Agreement or the conditions to the obligations of the parties to consummate any of the Transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to provide such access or information if doing so would (i) violate applicable law, (ii) jeopardize the protection of an attorney-client privilege or attorney work product protection or (iii) expose the Company to risk of liability for disclosure of sensitive or personal information.

7.6 Legal Conditions.

other applicable law and (iv) execute or deliver any additional instruments necessary to consummate the Transactions and to fully carry out the purposes of this Agreement. The Company and the Parent shall cooperate with each other in connection with the making of all such filings and shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to furnish to each other all information required for any application or other filing to be made pursuant to the rules and regulations of any applicable law (including all information required to be included in the Offer Documents and the Schedule 14D-9) in connection with the Transactions. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parent and the Company agree that nothing contained in this Section 7.6(a) shall modify or affect their respective rights and responsibilities under Section 7.6(b) or Section 7.6(c).

(b) Subject to the terms hereof, the Parent and the Company agree, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries, to cooperate and to use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain any government clearances or approvals, or expirations or terminations of waiting periods, required for the consummation of the Transactions under the HSR Act, the Sherman Antitrust Act, as amended, the Clayton Act, as amended, the Federal Trade Commission Act, as amended, and any other federal, state or foreign law or, regulation or decree designed to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions for the purpose or effect of monopolization or restraint of trade (collectively “Antitrust Laws”), and to respond to any government requests for information under any Antitrust Law. The parties hereto will consult and cooperate with one another, and consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of any party hereto in connection with proceedings under or relating to any Antitrust Law. The Parent, in consultation with the Company, shall be entitled to direct any proceedings or negotiations with any Governmental Entity relating to any of the foregoing, provided that it shall afford the Company and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to participate therein. Except as prohibited by applicable law, each of the Parent and the Company shall keep the other party and/or its counsel informed of any substantive communication received by such party from, or given by such party to any Governmental Entity, in each case regarding any of the Transactions; and permit the other party and/or its counsel to review any substantive communication given by it to, and consult with each other in advance of any meeting or conference with any such Governmental Entity.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Parent nor any of its Affiliates shall be under any obligation to (i) make proposals, execute or carry out agreements or submit to orders providing for the sale or other disposition or holding separate (through the establishment of a trust or otherwise) of any assets of the Parent or any of its Affiliates or the Company or any of its Affiliates or the holding separate of the shares of Company Common Stock (or shares of stock of the Surviving Corporation) or imposing or seeking to impose any limitation on the ability of the Parent or any of its Affiliates to conduct their business or own such assets or to acquire, hold or exercise full rights of ownership of the shares of Company Common Stock (or shares of stock of the Surviving Corporation) or (ii) take any action under Section 7.6(b) if any Governmental Entity authorizes its staff to seek a preliminary injunction or restraining order, or otherwise initiate administrative litigation, to enjoin consummation of any of the Transactions under any Antitrust Law.

- 58 -

(d) Subject to applicable laws (including the Antitrust Laws), the Company shall confer with the Parent on a regular and frequent basis as reasonably requested by the Parent concerning operational matters and promptly advise the Parent orally and in writing of any change or event having, or which, insofar as reasonably can be foreseen, could result in, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect. The Company and the Parent shall promptly provide to each other (or its counsel) copies of all filings made by the Company with any Governmental Entity in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions.

(e) Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates shall make any settlement offers or, except as directed by the Parent, negotiate any consent decree or consent order with any Governmental Entity relating to any of the Transactions. The Parent alone, after consultation with the Company, shall be responsible for making any settlement offers and negotiating any consent decree or consent order with any Governmental Entity relating to any of the Transactions. The Parent shall promptly communicate to the Company if any Governmental Entity suggests or proffers any settlement, consent decree or consent order, including the material terms thereof (and any written documentation provided by such Governmental Entity reflecting the same). The Parent, after consultation with the Company, may accept or reject any settlement, consent decree or consent order proposed by any Governmental Entity in its sole discretion.

(f) Without limiting the generality of Section 7.6(a), if any “fair price” or “control share acquisition” or “anti-takeover” statute, or other similar statute or regulation or any state “blue sky” statute shall become applicable to any of the Transactions, the Company and the Company Board shall grant such approvals and take such actions as are necessary so that the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and thereby, and otherwise act to minimize the effects of such statute or regulation on the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

7.7 Notification of Certain Matters.

(a) The Company shall give prompt notice to the Parent if, at any time (i) any Change occurs or exists that would result in any representation or warranty of the Company contained in this Agreement that is qualified as to materiality or Company Material Adverse Effect not being true and accurate in any respect as if such representation or warranty were made at such time, or any such representation or warranty that is not so qualified not being true and accurate in any material respect as if such representation or warranty were made at such time, or (ii) the Company fails to comply with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement; provided, however, that no such notification shall be deemed to cure any breach or otherwise affect the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Company or the conditions to the obligations of the parties hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall, within 24 hours after it has notice of any of the following, notify the Parent 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 any of the Transactions;

- 59 -

(ii) any notice or other communication from any Governmental Entity in connection with any of the Transactions; and

(iii) any actions, suits, claims, investigations or proceedings commenced or, to the best of its knowledge, threatened against, relating to or involving or otherwise affecting the Company 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 which relate to any of the Transactions.

(b) The Parent shall give prompt notice to the Company if, at any time (i) any Change occurs or exists that would result in any representation or warranty of the Parent or the Purchaser contained in this Agreement that is qualified as to materiality not being true and accurate in any respect as if such representation or warranty were made at such time, or any such representation or warranty that is not so qualified not being true and accurate in any material respect as if such representation or warranty were made at such time, or (ii) the Parent or the Purchaser fails to comply with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by them under this Agreement; provided, however, that no such notification shall be deemed to cure any breach or otherwise affect the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Parent or the Purchaser or the conditions to the obligations of the parties hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, the Parent shall notify the Company within 24 hours after it has any notice or other communication from any Governmental Entity in connection with any of the Transactions.

7.8 Public Disclosure. Except as may be required by law or stock market regulations, (a) the press release announcing the execution of this Agreement shall be issued only in such form as shall be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Parent and (b) the Parent and the Company shall each use reasonable best efforts to consult with the other party before issuing, and provide each other with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon, any other press release or otherwise making any public statement with respect to this Agreement or any of the Transactions, provided that the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to any press release or public statement (y) by the Company with respect to a Superior Proposal or a Company Adverse Recommendation Change or any action taken pursuant thereto or (z) by a party with respect to any dispute among the parties regarding this Agreement or the Transactions.

7.9 Indemnification.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, the Parent and the Purchaser shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, cause the Surviving Corporation, for a period of six years from the Effective Time, to honor all of the Company’s obligations to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each present and former director and officer of the Company (the “Indemnified Parties”), against any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities or amounts paid in settlement incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the extent that such obligations to indemnify, defend and hold harmless exist on the date of this Agreement pursuant to the Company’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws, or any agreement listed on Section 7.9(a)

- 60 -

of the Company Disclosure Schedule. If, at any time prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, any Indemnified Party delivers to the Company or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, a written notice asserting a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.9, then the claim asserted in such notice shall survive the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time until such claim is fully and finally resolved. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7.9 or elsewhere in this Agreement, the Parent shall not (and the Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation not to) settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment or otherwise seek termination with respect to any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation for which the Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification under this Section 7.9, unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of all of the Indemnified Parties covered by the claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parent’s obligations under this Section 7.9 shall include the obligation to honor (or cause another of its Affiliates to honor) the Company’s indemnification and other obligations referenced in this Section 7.9 in circumstances where the Surviving Corporation fails to honor, or is incapable of honoring, such obligations. The obligations of the Parent and the Surviving Corporation pursuant to this Section 7.9 shall include the advancement of expenses to the extent required in the organizational documents of the Company and its Subsidiaries and/or in the agreements as set forth in Section 7.9 of the Company Disclosure Schedule. For a period of six years after the Effective Time, the Parent shall not cause there to be any changes to the provisions of the Surviving Corporation’s organizational documents affecting the indemnification and other obligations covered by this Section 7.9.

(b) For a period of six years after the Effective Time, the Parent and the Purchaser shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain (to the extent available in the market) in effect a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy covering those persons who are currently covered by the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy (a complete and accurate copy of which has been made available to the Parent prior to the date of this Agreement) with coverage in amount and scope at least favorable to such persons as the Company’s existing coverage; provided, that in no event shall the Parent or the Surviving Corporation be required to pay an aggregate annual premium for such insurance policy in excess of 250% of the annual premium currently paid by the Company for such coverage, provided, further, that if the annual premium of such insurance coverage exceeds such amount, the Parent and the Purchaser shall cause the Surviving Corporation to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding such amount. At the Parent’s option, the Parent may purchase prior to the Effective Time a six-year prepaid “tail policy” covering those persons who are currently covered by the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy, in which case the Parent and the Purchaser shall be relieved of their obligations pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. The Company represents and warrants that the annual premium currently paid by the Company for directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage is as set forth on Section 7.9(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

(c) The provisions of this Section 7.9 are intended to be in addition to the rights otherwise available to the current officers and directors of the Company by law, charter, statute, by-law or agreement, and shall operate for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties, their heirs and their representatives. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and

- 61 -

officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries or their respective officers or directors, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.9 is not prior to, or in substitution for, any such claims under any such policies. The obligations under this Section 7.9 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Indemnified Party without the written consent of such Indemnified Party.

7.10 Treatment of Company Equity Awards.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company and the Company Board or Compensation Committee shall take all steps necessary (including obtaining the consent of each holder of a Company Stock Option) to cause all Company Stock Options that are outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time to be cancelled as of the Effective Time in exchange for the right to receive an amount in cash (without interest and less any applicable Tax withholding in accordance with Section 3.2(g) with respect to such payment) determined by multiplying (x) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the applicable exercise price per share of such Company Stock Option by (y) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option (the “Option Consideration”). If the holder of any Company Stock Option does not consent to the treatment of such Company Stock Option contemplated by the first sentence of this Section 7.10(a) and such Company Stock Option is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, such Company Stock Option shall be cancelled as of, and shall be of no further force or effect from and after, the Effective Time. Any shares of Company Common Stock issued prior to the Effective Time upon exercise of a Company Stock Option shall be treated as provided in Section 3.1(a)(iii). Without limitation of the Company’s obligations under this Section 7.10(a), the Company shall, prior to the Effective Time, deliver to each holder of a Company Stock Option such advance notice of the cancellation of, and opportunity to exercise, such Company Stock Option as complies with the applicable Company Stock Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, payment of the Option Consideration shall be made following the Effective Time in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company and the Company Board or Compensation Committee shall take all steps necessary to cause all Company RSUs that are outstanding and unvested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time to be cancelled for no consideration as of, and to have no further force or effect from and after, the Effective Time (each a “Cancelled RSU”). Subject to Section 7.10(d), the Parent shall issue promptly after the Effective Time to each holder of a Cancelled RSU, in substitution for such Cancelled RSU, a restricted stock unit award or, in Parent’s discretion, a restricted stock award under the Parent’s Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Parent Stock Plan”) for a number of shares of the Parent’s common stock, 0.16 ²⁄₃ par value per share (“Parent Common Stock”), equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Cancelled RSU, multiplied by the Equity Award Ratio (each a “RSU Replacement Award”) and rounded up to the nearest whole share, it being understood that the number of shares subject to any Cancelled RSU other than a Time-Based Cancelled RSU shall be deemed to be equal to 100% of the shares at the target award level under such Cancelled RSU. The Parent shall cause the RSU Replacement Awards to vest as follows:

(i) Any RSU Replacement Award issued in respect of a Cancelled RSU that prior to its cancellation would have vested based solely on the continued employment of the applicable employee (a “Time-Based Cancelled RSU”) shall vest in accordance with the vesting schedule that would have been in effect under such Cancelled RSU as of immediately after the Effective Time if such Cancelled RSU were not so cancelled.

(ii) Any RSU Replacement Award that is issued in respect of a Cancelled RSU other than a Time-Based Cancelled RSU shall vest in accordance with the vesting schedule based solely on the continued employment of the applicable employee that would have been in effect under such Cancelled RSU as of immediately after the Effective Time if such Cancelled RSU were not so cancelled, assuming satisfaction of each performance condition at the target level.

- 62 -

For purposes of this Agreement, “Equity Award Ratio” shall mean an amount equal to the Merger Consideration, divided by the average closing price per share of Parent Common Stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market during the five consecutive trading days ending on the Closing Date. Each Company RSU that is vested but unsettled as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and converted into only the right to receive an amount in cash (without interest and less any applicable Tax withholding in accordance with Section 3.2(g) with respect to such payment) determined by multiplying the Merger Consideration by the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company RSU, which cash amount shall be paid following the Effective Time in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices.

(c) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company and the Company Board or Compensation Committee shall take all steps necessary to cause all Company RSAs that are outstanding and unvested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time to be cancelled for no consideration as of, and to have no further force or effect from and after, the Effective Time (each a “Cancelled RSA”). Subject to Section 7.10(d), the Parent shall issue promptly after the Effective Time to each holder of a Cancelled RSA, in substitution for such Cancelled RSA, a restricted stock unit award or, in Parent’s discretion, a restricted stock award under the Parent Stock Plan for a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Cancelled RSA, multiplied by the Equity Award Ratio and rounded up to the nearest whole share (each a “RSA Replacement Award”). The Parent shall cause any RSA Replacement Award issued in respect of a Cancelled RSA to vest in accordance with the vesting schedule that would have been in effect under such Cancelled RSA as of immediately after the Effective Time if such Cancelled RSA were not so cancelled.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.10, if any holder of a Cancelled RSU or Cancelled RSA (i) is based outside of the United States or (ii) would otherwise be entitled to any RSU Replacement Award or RSA Replacement Award for less than 500 shares of Parent Common Stock, then the Parent shall have the discretion to issue, in lieu of such RSU Replacement Award or RSA Replacement Award, an award of cash, subject to the vesting provisions that would have been applicable to such RSU Replacement Award or RSA Replacement Award, in an amount equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Cancelled RSU or Cancelled RSA, multiplied by the Merger Consideration.

- 63 -

(e) Promptly after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall deliver to each holder of a Company Stock Option, Company RSU or Company RSA a notice (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Parent) describing the treatment thereof pursuant to this Agreement.

7.11 401(k) Plan. No later than the day prior to the Acceptance Time if requested by the Parent, the Company Board or, if appropriate, any committee administering the Hittite Microwave Corporation 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan, shall adopt such resolutions or take such other actions as are required to terminate such plan on the day prior to the Acceptance Time, in each case subject to the Parent’s prior review. The Company shall preserve all documentation and records related to such plan.

7.12 Employee Matters.

(a) The Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, (i) provide to each individual who is a U.S.-based employee of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company as of the Effective Time (a “U.S. Continuing Employee”) for a period of one year following the Effective Time, annual base salary and base wages and cash incentive compensation opportunities that are collectively no lower than those in effect as of the Effective Time and (ii) until December 31, 2014, provide to the U.S. Continuing Employees employee benefits (excluding equity compensation) that are no less favorable in the aggregate than the employee benefits provided to the U.S. Continuing Employees immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(b) To the extent permitted under the terms of the Parent’s employee benefits plans, from and after the Effective Time, the Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, recognize the prior service with the Company or its Subsidiaries of each individual who is an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company as of the Effective Time (a “Continuing Employee”) in connection with all employee benefit plans of the Parent or the Surviving Corporation in which any such Continuing Employee is admitted to participation following the Effective Time, for purposes of eligibility, vesting and level of benefits (but not to the extent that such recognition would result in duplication of benefits). Each Continuing Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all of the Parent’s employee benefit plans to the extent coverage under such plans is replacing comparable coverage under an employee benefit plan of the Company in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately before the Effective Time.

(c) Any U.S. Continuing Employee (other than one who has severance protection under an individual employment, severance, or retention agreement) whose employment is terminated by the Parent or the Surviving Corporation within one year (or such longer period as the Parent determines) after the Effective Time and prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date shall (subject to compliance with any requirement the applicable employer may impose with respect to a release of claims) receive severance pay equal to the greater of (i) eight weeks of base salary or wages or (ii) two weeks of base salary or wages for each year of service, with credit for service both before and after the Effective Time; provided that the foregoing shall not prevent the Parent or the Surviving Corporation from supplementing such severance as it determines appropriate. Continuing Employees employed outside the United States will receive severance, if and when applicable, in accordance with any applicable plans covering them or as otherwise provided by applicable law.

- 64 -

(d) To the extent permitted under the terms of the Parent’s employee benefits plans, from and after the Effective Time, the Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause any pre-existing conditions or limitations and eligibility waiting periods (to the extent that such waiting periods would be applicable, taking into account service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) under any group health, dental, or vision plans of the Parent maintained in and with respect to the United States to be waived with respect to U.S. Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents.

(e) If the Company’s 401(k) plan is terminated prior to the Effective Time pursuant to Section 7.11, each U.S. Continuing Employee will be eligible to participate as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time in the Parent plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(k) of the Code. The Parent shall take all steps reasonably necessary to permit each U.S. Continuing Employee who has an outstanding loan under the Company’s 401(k) plan to roll over such loan into an account under the Parent’s 401(k) plan, if and to the extent such rollovers are not prohibited under the participant’s loan agreement or the Company’s loan procedures.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the parties do not intend for this Section 7.12 to create any rights or obligations except between the parties hereto nor to amend any employee benefit plan and no Continuing Employee, or any beneficiary or dependent thereof, or any other person not a party to this Agreement, shall be entitled to assert any claim against the Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates under this Section 7.12.

7.13 Stockholder Litigation. Until the earlier of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms or the Effective Time, the Company shall give the Parent the opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of any stockholder litigation against the Company or the Company Board relating to any of the Transactions, and shall not settle any such litigation without the Parent’s prior written consent.

7.14 Parent Guaranty. The Parent hereby unconditionally guarantees the Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement and agrees to be liable for any breach of this Agreement by the Purchaser.

10.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (and the Schedules and Exhibits hereto) constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto and supersede any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties hereto, or any of them, written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided that, subject to Section 6.2, the Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in effect in accordance with its terms.

10.4 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Other than the provisions of Section 7.9, this Agreement is not intended, and shall not be deemed, to confer any rights or remedies upon any other person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, to create any agreement of employment with any person or to otherwise create any third-party beneficiary hereto.

10.5 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any such assignment without such prior written consent shall be null and void, except that the Parent and/or the Purchaser may assign this Agreement to any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of the Parent without the consent of the Company, provided that the Parent and/or the Purchaser, as the case may be, shall remain liable for all of its obligations under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

10.6 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term.

10.7 Counterparts and Signature. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart.

10.10 Remedies. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

The foregoing conditions shall be in addition to, and not a limitation of, the rights of the Parent and the Purchaser to extend, terminate and/or modify the Offer pursuant to the terms of the Agreement.

The foregoing conditions are for the sole benefit of the Parent and the Purchaser and may be asserted by the Parent and the Purchaser regardless of the circumstances giving rise to any such condition and may be waived by the Parent or the Purchaser (except for the Minimum Condition), in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, in their respective sole discretion. The failure by the Parent or the Purchaser at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights will not be deemed a waiver of any such right, the waiver of any such right with respect to any particular facts and circumstances shall not be deemed a waiver with respect to any other facts and circumstances and each such right will be deemed an ongoing right that may be asserted at any time and from time to time.

PROJECT HARVARD

$2,000,000,000 Term Loan Facility

Commitment Letter

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Analog Devices, Inc. (“ADI” or “you”) has advised Credit Suisse AG (acting through such of its branches or affiliates as it may designate, “CS” or the “Initial Lender”) and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (“CS Securities” or the “Arranger”; and together with the Initial Lender and their respective affiliates, “Credit Suisse”, “we” or “us”) that ADI intends to consummate the Acquisition and the other Transactions (each such term and each other capitalized term used but not defined herein having the meaning assigned to such term in the Summary of Principal Terms and Conditions attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Term Sheet”)).

You have further advised us that, in connection therewith, ADI will obtain the term loan facility (the “Facility”) described in the Term Sheet, in an aggregate principal amount of up to $2,000,000,000.

1.	Commitments.

In connection with the foregoing, CS is pleased to advise you of its commitment to provide the entire principal amount of the Facility, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth or referred to in this commitment letter (including the Term Sheet and the other attachments hereto, this “Commitment Letter”).

2.	Titles and Roles.

You hereby appoint (a) CS Securities to act, and CS Securities hereby agrees to act, as sole bookrunner and sole lead arranger for the Facility, and (b) CS to act, and CS hereby agrees to act, as sole administrative agent for the Facility, in each case upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth or referred to in this Commitment Letter. Each of CS Securities and CS, in such capacities, will perform the duties and exercise the authority customarily performed and exercised by it in such roles. You agree that no other titles will be awarded and no compensation

(other than that expressly contemplated by this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter referred to below) will be paid in order to obtain Lenders’ commitments to the Facility unless you and we shall so agree.

3.	Syndication.

We reserve the right, prior to and/or after the execution of definitive documentation for the Facility, to syndicate all or a portion of the Initial Lender’s commitment with respect to the Facility to a group of banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders (together with the Initial Lender, the “Lenders”) identified by us in consultation with and reasonably acceptable to you. You agree to provide us with a period of at least 15 consecutive business days following the launch of the general syndication of the Facility to syndicate the Facility provided that (x) neither July 3, 2014 nor November 27, 2014 shall constitute business days for purposes of the foregoing requirement and (y) if such period has not ended prior to August 18, 2014, then it will not commence any earlier than September 3, 2014. We intend to commence syndication efforts promptly upon the completion of the marketing materials referred to below, and you agree to actively assist us in completing a reasonably satisfactory syndication. Such assistance shall include (a) your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any syndication efforts benefit materially from your existing lending and investment banking relationships and the existing lending and investment banking relationships of the Company, (b) direct contact between your senior management, representatives and advisors and the proposed Lenders, (c) your using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, prior to the launch of the syndication, updated public corporate ratings and public corporate family ratings from Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) and Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), respectively, (d) assistance by you in the preparation of a Confidential Information Memorandum for the Facility and other marketing materials to be used in connection with the syndication (the “Information Materials”), and (e) the hosting, with the Arranger, of one or more meetings of prospective Lenders. You agree, at the request of the Arranger, to assist in the preparation of a version of the Information Materials consisting exclusively of information and documentation that is either (i) publicly available or (ii) not material with respect to the Company, ADI or their respective subsidiaries or any of their respective securities for purposes of foreign, United States Federal and state securities laws (all such information and documentation being “Public Lender Information”). Any information and documentation that is not Public Lender Information is referred to herein as “Private Lender Information”. Before distribution of any Information Materials, you agree to execute and deliver to the Arranger (i) a letter in which you authorize distribution of the Information Materials to Lenders’ employees willing to receive Private Lender Information and (ii) a letter in which you authorize distribution of Information Materials containing solely Public Lender Information and represent that such Information Materials do not contain any Private Lender Information, which letter shall in each case include a customary “10b-5” representation. You further agree that each document to be disseminated by the Arranger to any Lender in connection with the Facility will, at the request of the Arranger, be identified by you as either (i) containing Private Lender Information or (ii) containing solely Public Lender Information. You acknowledge that the following documents contain solely Public Lender Information (unless you notify us promptly that any such document contains Private Lender Information): (a) drafts and final definitive documentation with respect to the Facility; (b) administrative materials prepared by the Arranger or Initial Lender for prospective Lenders (such as a lender meeting invitation, bank allocation, if any, and funding and closing memoranda); and (c) notification of changes in the terms of the Facility.

- 2 -

The Arranger will manage all aspects of any syndication in consultation with you, including decisions as to the selection of institutions to be approached and when they will be approached, when their commitments will be accepted, which institutions will participate, the allocation of the commitments among the Lenders, any naming rights and the amount and distribution of fees among the Lenders. To assist the Arranger in its syndication efforts, you agree promptly to prepare and provide to the Arranger all information with respect to ADI, the Company and their respective subsidiaries, the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby, including all financial information and projections (the “Projections”), as the Arranger may reasonably request.

Without limiting your obligations to assist with syndication efforts as set forth above, each of the Arranger and Initial Lender agrees that neither the completion of syndication nor the obtaining of ratings from S&P or Moody’s is a condition to their commitments hereunder.

To ensure an orderly and effective syndication of the Facility, you agree that, prior to and during the Syndication Period (as defined below), there shall be no other issues of debt securities or commercial bank or other credit facilities of ADI, the Company or their respective subsidiaries being announced, offered, placed or arranged that could have an adverse impact on the syndication of the Facility, in each case without the prior written consent of CS Securities (other than indebtedness incurred in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation, borrowings under existing credit facilities and indebtedness permitted to be incurred by the Company and its subsidiaries pursuant to the Merger Agreement).

As used herein and in the Fee Letter, “Syndication Period” shall mean the period from the date of your acceptance of this Commitment Letter until the earlier of (i) the date on which a “successful syndication” (as defined in the Fee Letter) is achieved and (ii) 60 days after the Closing Date.

Notwithstanding the Initial Lender’s right to syndicate the Facility and receive commitments with respect thereto, except in each case set forth below with respect to assignments made with your consent as expressly provided in Section 9, (i) the Initial Lender shall not be relieved, released or novated from its obligations hereunder (including its obligation to fund the entire Facility on the Closing Date) in connection with any syndication, assignment or participation of the Facility, including its commitment in respect thereof, until after the initial funding of the Facility, (ii) no assignment or novation shall become effective with respect to all or any portion of the Initial Lender’s commitment in respect of the Facility until the initial funding of the Facility and (iii) the Initial Lender shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to its commitment, including all rights with respect to consents, modifications, supplements, waivers and amendments, until the initial funding of the Facility.

4.	Information.

You hereby represent and warrant (with respect to Information (as defined below) and Projections relating to the Company and its affiliates, to the best of your knowledge) that (a) all

- 3 -

information other than the Projections and information of a general economic or industry nature (the “Information”) that has been or will be made available to us by or on behalf of you or any of your representatives is or will be, when furnished, taken as a whole, complete and correct in all material respects and does not or will not, when furnished, taken as a whole and together with your other public filings, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made and (b) the Projections that have been or will be made available to us by or on behalf of you or any of your representatives have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that are reasonable at the time made and at the time the related Projections are made available to us (it being understood that Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and there can be no assurance that the results therein will be realized). You agree that if at any time prior to the closing of the Facility any of the representations in the preceding sentence would be incorrect if the Information and Projections were being furnished, and such representations were being made, at such time, then you will promptly supplement the Information and the Projections so that such representations will be correct under those circumstances. In arranging and syndicating the Facility, we will be entitled to use and rely primarily on the Information and the Projections without responsibility for independent verification thereof.

Fees.

As consideration for our agreements hereunder, you agree to pay to us the fees set forth in this Commitment Letter and in the fee letter dated the date hereof and delivered herewith with respect to the Facility (the “Fee Letter”).

6.	Conditions Precedent.

The Initial Lender’s commitment hereunder, and each of our agreements to perform the services described herein, are subject solely to the conditions expressly set forth in Exhibit B hereto.

7.	Indemnification; Expenses.

Summary of Principal Terms and Conditions


Borrower:		Initially, Analog Devices, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (“*ADI”); provided* that, upon consummation of the Assumption (as defined below), a wholly owned subsidiary of ADI organized under the laws of the Republic of Ireland (or the laws of the United States or another mutually acceptable non-US jurisdiction) (the “*Subsidiary Borrower*”) shall be the Borrower.

Company:		A Delaware corporation previously identified to the Arranger (as defined below) as “Harvard” (the “*Company*”).

Transactions:		ADI intends to acquire (the “*Acquisition”) all the equity interests of the Company pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger to be entered into among ADI, a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary of ADI incorporated in the State of Delaware (“Merger Sub”) and the Company (as in effect on the date hereof, the “Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will commence a tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) to purchase all the outstanding shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Shares”), of the Company for aggregate cash consideration (the “Acquisition Consideration”) provided for in the Merger Agreement. The Tender Offer will be conditioned upon, among other things, the minimum percentage of Shares being validly tendered and not withdrawn so as to enable Merger Sub and the Company to consummate a merger (the “Merger”) under Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law without the affirmative vote of any equity holder of the Company other than Merger Sub (the “Minimum Condition”). Pursuant to the Merger, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the surviving corporation being a wholly owned subsidiary of ADI and with each outstanding Share not acquired pursuant to the Tender Offer being converted, subject to stockholder dissent rights, into the right to receive the same cash consideration paid per Share pursuant to the Tender Offer. In connection with the foregoing, (a) ADI will obtain the term loan facility, as described below under the caption “Facility”, and (b) ADI will pay the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the foregoing (the “Transaction Costs”). The transactions described in this paragraph are collectively referred to herein as the “Acquisition Transactions*”.


Assumption:		Following the consummation of the Acquisition, the Subsidiary Borrower may enter into a novation agreement under which the Subsidiary Borrower would assume as primary obligor (the “*Assumption”) all of ADI’s obligations under the Facility described below, and would be substituted as the borrower thereunder, and ADI would be released of its obligations as principal and would irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee (the “Guarantee”) all of the obligations of the Subsidiary Borrower thereunder. ADI’s obligations would be solely as a guarantor and the Guarantee shall provide that the Agent and Lenders may assert claims under the Guarantee only after a default by the Subsidiary Borrower and the continuance of that default beyond all grace and cure periods. As used herein, (a) the term “Borrower” means (i) prior to the Assumption, ADI, and (ii) from and after the Assumption, the Subsidiary Borrower, and (b) the term “Transactions*” means the Acquisition Transactions and the Assumption.

Agent:		Credit Suisse AG, acting through one or more of its branches or affiliates (“CS”), will act as sole administrative agent (in such capacity, the “*Agent”) for a syndicate of banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders (together with CS, the “Lenders*”), and will perform the duties customarily associated with such role.

Sole Bookrunner and Sole Lead Arranger:		Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (“*CS Securities”) will act as sole bookrunner and sole lead arranger for the Facility (in such capacities, the “Arranger*”), and will perform the duties customarily associated with such roles.

Syndication Agent:		One or more financial institutions identified by the Arranger and acceptable to the Borrower (in such capacity, the “*Syndication Agent*”).

Documentation Agent:		One or more financial institutions identified by the Arranger and acceptable to the Borrower (in such capacity, the “*Documentation Agent*”).

Facility:		A 90-day term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $2,000,000,000 (the “*Facility*”).

		And with all that, I’ll turn the call over to Vince for his opening remarks.

Vincent Roche:		Thanks, Ali. And thanks, everyone, for joining today’s call. Let me first say how excited we are at ADI to welcome Hittite to our family. We believe the combination of ADI and Hittite has compelling benefits for our customers, strengthens our position as a leader in high performance (signal) processing and delivers the superior financial performance that shareholders have come to expect from ADI.

		Our offer price of $78 per share represents an enterprise value of approximately $2 billion. We believe this is an attractive valuation for a company with high growth potential in key markets, as well as a number of compelling synergies that will drive value for our shareholders. This is an all-cash transaction, which we expect will be accretive to our bottom line on a non-GAAP basis. More importantly, it is the technology fit with ADI and the growth opportunities we create together, which I’ll explain in a moment, that provided the strategic rationale for this deal.

		As is typical, the transaction is subject to regulatory clearance and other customary closing conditions. We expect the transaction to close near the end of our third fiscal quarter.

		Now, let’s turn to page four of the presentation. When you consider our key strategies, you’ll see that Hittite fits right in. ADI has focused on innovating and technologies that sense, condition, process and convert real-world signals from analog to digital and back. We have leveraged our technology to diversify across the industrial, communications infrastructure and automotive end markets. All of these efforts are focused on an end goal of accelerating growth while continuing to maintain financial excellence.

		Turning now to page five of the presentation, by combining the portfolios and expertise of both ADI and Hittite, ADI will be able to serve our customers with technology capable of converting the entire frequency spectrum, including RF, microwave and millimeter wave, which I’ll describe from hereon as high-performance RF and microwave. We believe this capability meaningfully differentiates ADI.

		From a growth perspective, this transaction expands product offerings and our key end markets and allows us to address new opportunities. Ubiquitous connectivity is a significant trend across our key markets of industrial, communications infrastructure and automotive applications, which together now represent 89 percent of ADI’s revenue.

		The value of Hittite’s innovation is evident in their strong profit margins and cash flow. As we — and we fully expect this transaction will have a positive effect on our performance and be accretive to ADI revenue, margins and EPS on a non-GAAP basis.

		Let’s go now to page six, where I’d like to discuss Hittite in more detail. As I said, Hittite’s strategy has been to concentrate on high-performance RF and microwave applications. The company’s history in defense and aerospace applications has given them a very strong base supplying very high performance devices to mission critical applications. Their focus on creating high-performance solutions mirrors our own approach.

		Hittite operates as a fabless company with specialized assembly and test capabilities, which we expect will be complemented by ADI’s global manufacturing infrastructure comprised of both internal and external operations. Hittite has approximately 500 employees. Seventy percent work at Hittite’s headquarters in Chelmsford, Mass., which is very close to ADI corporate headquarters, and even closer to our design and manufacturing facilities in Wilmington, Massachusetts. The remaining staff and product design, sales and technical support reside in key geographies around the world.

		On page seven, you can see how the addition of Hittite will significantly increase our presence across the entire frequency spectrum, primarily by expanding into microwave and millimeter wave applications. We believe that Hittite is an outstanding supplier in portions of this market with a significant product and technology capability and a very strong engineering (team).

		Hittite’s product focus is highly complementary to our own. They offer over a thousand standard products, covering a broad range of high-performance RF and microwave applications, many of which are shown on this chart. We believe that customers will see an immense benefit to having ADI as a supplier capable of addressing the entire frequency spectrum from the antenna to the digital domain, or as we say at ADI, all the way from antenna to bits and back. This chart illustrates the diversity of applications, which also translates into a broad range of customers.

		Now, let’s turn to page eight. We view the RF and microwave opportunity as a large market that gives us the potential for high growth. Hittite has done a fantastic job of developing a broad-based business with impressive depths of understanding around the technical challenges that our customers face.

		ADI’s portfolio addresses a large part of the R.F market already. But as I noted before, Hittite’s RF and microwave capabilities complement our own, round out our product capabilities and expand our addressable market.

		So, with that, I’d like to hand it over to Dave for a financial overview.

Dave Zinsner:		Thank you, Vince. Hello everyone. Vince took you through the strong strategic rationale for this deal and now I’ll take you through the mechanics of the transaction and the strong financial performance we expect as a result.

		Our offer price of $78 in cash represents an equity value of around $2.5 billion and an enterprise value of approximately $2 billion. We intend to launch the tender offer shortly and expect to close near the end of the third quarter. We plan to finance the transaction with a combination of cash-on-hand and short-term debt financing, which we intend to repay before the end of our fiscal year 2014.

		Hittite is a global company serving customers worldwide with substantial international operations, including R&D centers and manufacturing. We intend to combine these international operations with ADI’s significant international organization. This will create operational efficiencies for ADI, as well as allow us to mobilize our global cash reserves to help repay the transaction financing in an efficient manner. It’s also important to note that we remain committed to our previously-stated objective to return to our shareholders an average of 80 percent of our combined free cash flow over the next few years through dividends and share repurchases.

		Turning to page 10, we wanted to provide you with a high level overview of what the combined company would’ve looked like on a last-12-month basis, excluding synergies. Hittite has gross and operating margins that actually compare favorably to ADI’s and both companies have a very strong cash flow profile.

		Since we expect this to close near the end of our third quarter, we don’t expect much impact from the transaction this quarter. Therefore, we continue to expect our business to perform in line with the guidance we provided on May 20th, which is for revenue to increase in the range of 1 to 5 percent and for diluted earnings per share, excluding any one-time items, to be in the range of 60 to 64 cents.

		In our fourth quarter, our combined gross and operating margins should improve slightly due to Hittite’s higher margin profile. We expect our net interest expense in the fourth quarter to increase by approximately $4 million to approximately $8 million as a result of the low-cost, short-term financing.

		Beginning in the first quarter of 2015, we expect total net interest spend to be approximately $5.5 million per quarter once we repay the loan. We expect that our combined tax rate will increase to approximately 15.5 percent in the fourth quarter since Hittite’s tax rate is around 34 percent. Over the next two years, we expect our combined tax rate to gradually decline to around 13 to 14 percent as we integrate Hittite into our worldwide operations.

		Based on all of this, we expect that Hittite — that the Hittite acquisition should be accretive to our non-GAAP fourth quarters earnings by about 4 to 6 percent. Over time, we expect the earnings accretion percentage on a non-GAAP basis to accelerate into the high single digits in 2015 and to the mid-teens in 2016 as we begin to more fully realize the advantages of the acquisition.

		In keeping with the strategic rationale for acquiring Hittite, we expect revenue synergies over the long term. However, we believe we have been taking a conservative approach by excluding them from today’s discussion of these accretion numbers.

		Now, turning to page 11, we presented a pro forma breakout of what our combined companies look like on a pre-acquisition basis. As you can see, this transaction adds meaningful scale to our industrial and communications

		infrastructure businesses. Additionally, our combined capability in amplifiers and RF significantly scale the revenue in that strategic product category to nearly $1 billion.

		So, now I’ll turn the call back over to Vince as we move on to page 12 of the presentation.

Vincent Roche:		Thanks, Dave.

		So, we’re very excited at ADI about this acquisition and we believe that the breadth of ADI’s and Hittite’s product technology will enable ADI to serve new and existing customers with a full range of differentiated and very valuable technology.

		Importantly, as you’ve heard me say many times, ADI sets a very high bar when considering technology investments and Hittite far exceeds that bar. We have long admired Hittite for their technology, financial performance and strong engineering culture, and I am confident our customers will agree that ADI’s acquisition of Hittite will be a source of enabling innovation for them long into the future.

		So, with that, I’ll open it up to questions and answers.

Ali Husain:		Operator, can we get to the Q&A, please?

Operator:		For those participating by telephone dial-in, if you have a question, please press star and the number one on your phone. If your question has been answered and you wish to be removed from the queue, please press the pound key. If you are listening on a speakerphone, please pick up the handset when asking your question. We’ll pause for just a moment to compile the Q&A roster.

		Our first question will come from the line of John Pitzer with Credit Suisse. Please go ahead with your question.

John Pitzer:		David, you talked about not putting revenue synergies into your accretion analysis on the deal, which I guess near-term makes sense. But I’m kind of

		curious — as you think about this asset relative to ADI’s core growth rate, what do you — how accretive do you think this could be to top line growth over time?

Dave Zinsner:		Well, when we did the analysis, obviously that was a key strategic rationale to bend the growth curve. We think that Hittite already probably grows a little bit above our corporate growth rate and we think we can dramatically accelerate it with the combined acquisition. Do you want to…

Vincent Roche:		Yes, so this is Vince here. You know, we look at this opportunity and we believe that the RF and microwave market can grow, you know, over time in the — kind of the mid-single to high-single digit area. And it’s our sense that the combination of both companies can, you know, drive market share growth.

		So, I think overall, just given everything that’s happening kind of at the — at the macro level, in terms of importance or RF and microwave technology, it’ll be a good growth space. And, you know, our sense is that we’ll grow above the market and gain share over time.

John Pitzer:		And then Dave, real quickly, you maintained your target on cash returns to investors. How do we think about your U.S. cash balance as you pay for this deal?

David Zinsner:		Probably will be not dramatically changed post the deal.

John Pitzer:		Perfect. Thanks, guys.

Operator:		Your next question will come from the line of Jim Covello with Goldman Sachs. Please go ahead.

Jim Covello:		Congratulations on the announcement. I guess, Dave, you had referenced being able to take advantage of your overseas cash position to repay the debt in an efficient manner. Is that — is that a function of maybe the short-term financing that you’re doing to pay for the deal, borrowing overseas and then being — you being able to use some of the overseas cash to repay that financing? Is that the idea there?

David Zinsner:		Yes, most of the details will be discussed in the tender offer, which should be filed in the next few days. But I would tell you that, you know, our sense is that we can utilize our global cash, given the international operations of ADI coupled with fairly good international business presence that Hittite has; you know, we’ll be able to do things fairly efficiently.

Jim Covello:		OK, thanks. I think you had asked us to stick with one question, so I’ll leave it there. Thank you.

David Zinsner:		Thanks.

Operator:		Your next question will come from the line of (Avec Aria) with Bank of America Merrill Lynch. Please go ahead.

(Avec Aria):		Thanks for taking my question. Actually, just, you know, one clarification and a question. On the clarification, any comments on cost synergies and any regulatory approvals that might be required? And then my bigger question, again, going back to revenue, for Hittite, sales growth was roughly flattish in 2012; it was up about 4 percent last year. And I think (consensus) has been growing at an 8 to 9 percent pace. And I’m wondering how much of the Department of Defense exposure is there for the company and is 8 to 9 percent, you know — what (consensus is taking it). Is that the right kind of growth rate to (bake) for Hittite over the next few years? Thank you.

David Zinsner:		That’s quite a one question, but I’ll take the first two and then I will give Rick the military exposure. From a synergy perspective, we obviously do expect OPEX synergy and cost of sales synergy — that’s built into our belief that we can get into the high single digits in terms of accretion in 2015 and into the mid-teens by 2016. Most of the early OPEX synergy is going to come from the fact that we are — no longer have to have Hittite as a public company and our belief that we can bring down the tax rate over time.

		We’re also on a go-forward basis, given the kind of global operations that Hittite has, we think we can get more synergies in 2016. And so, that’s built into the kind of mid-teens accretion; plus we do think we can bring down the tax rate further in 2016, which will help out, as well.

		On a regulatory basis, there are a couple of locations that are going to require regulatory approval, but we don’t expect those to be an impediment to closing this deal in a timely fashion.

Rick Hess:		This is Rick. I’ll try and answer your other question. So, you’re right — we grew 4 percent last year. We are looking for much more significant growth this year. That’s driven largely by the size of your infrastructure market. However, our military business will grow this year, as well. We have some major module programs that we operate in the military business and we do see growth in them, both this year as well as over time.

		So, military typically represents between 20 and 30 percent of our total revenue. So, it does influence our business. But again, we see that as a positive growth for this year.

(Avec Aria):		Thank you.

Operator:		Your next question will come from the line of Steve Smigie with Raymond James. Please go ahead.

Steve Smigie:		Hello, I’m speaking for Steve. I was wondering if you’ve given any thought into Hittite’s Gallium Nitride business and if you see any significance in that going forward.

Rick Hess:		Yes. This is Rick again. Gallium Nitride is a significant piece, we think, in the future of our growth. So, it is a small piece of our revenue today. But we do see that as a growing piece of the business and we will continue to drive in the Gallium Nitride area.

Steve Smigie:		OK. Thank you.

Operator:		Your next question will come from the line of Romit Shah with Nomura. Please go ahead.

Romit Shah:		Thanks and congrats on the deal; you know, makes a lot of sense. I was just wondering if you guys could share, you know, why you decided to do the deal now. Hittite’s been around for a while. Is this — have you guys had conversations about this in the past and you just came to valuation? Or, you know, is it something else?

Vincent Roche:		Well, Romit, we have conversations a lot at the company about our options, both organically and inorganically. You know, I think when you look at — the market is very well-positioned for growth in future. We already have, inside ADI, an RF and microwave business that, you know, we’re very, very excited about that we’ve been investing in organically.

		I think as well, when you look at what customers are dealing with, in terms of, you know, just increasing complexity and the speed at which they have to deliver innovation, I think there’s a terrific opportunity for a company like ADI and our position and our connection to many of the customers in the market that we really care about here to just bring more and more of the solution (to bear).

		So, you know, the timing is good. I think there’s a lot of growth left in these markets and, you know, I think the combination of these two pieces will position ADI well into future to grab market share, and just to do a great job at doing what we do well, which is innovate around this signal processing space. And this deal, of course, is very, very synergistic. It expands our reach and our capabilities and I think our customers are going to be very, very excited about it.

Romit Shah:		Terrific. Thank you.

Operator:		Your next question will come from the line of Doug Freedman with RBC. Please go ahead.

Dough Freedman:		Great. Thanks for taking my question, guys, and congratulations on the deal. Looks…

(Rick Hess):		Thank you.

Doug Freedman:		Like it’s quite cash flow accretive, as well. Looking — focusing on the cash flow side of the equation, I’ll ask a two-part question here. One is do you see any synergies on the CAPEX side, in terms of what’s needed? Do I add the

		two CAPEX numbers together? Are there synergies there? And then is there any impact here on the way in which you guys would approach your buyback as a result of the deal?

David Zinsner:		I’ll take the first one first — second one first. The buyback — no change to how we approach the buyback. We continue to think that’s a good way of augmenting the dividend, in terms of returning 80 percent of our free cash flow. It is going to be opportunistic in terms of the timing. But we continue to be committed to that program.

		As far as the CAPEX goes, Hittite is fabless and we expect to maintain their foundry relationships. So, I wouldn’t expect too much change in CAPEX. However, we’ll — you know, there’s — obviously, we spent the money in terms of lab equipment and software and so forth. So, there’s probably, you know, some operational benefits from a CAPEX perspective. But I’m going to guess that it won’t change the CAPEX number next year too significantly.

Ali Husain:		Thanks, Doug. And we’ll move on to our next question, operator.

Operator:		Your next question will come from the line of Stacy Rasgon with Bernstein

Stacy Rasgon:		My question. I wanted to talk about potential revenue overlap. So, you mentioned obviously you have a pretty big — or you have a decent sized RF and microwave business (also today). How carefully were you able to scrub the different product portfolios of both companies, then? How deep were you able to go to show that there’s limited to no product overlap in the business?

Vincent Roche:		Well, you know, we’ve spent obviously a lot of time trying to figure out the complementarity of the products and technologies. We at the company have been starting to move up the frequency spectrum. But already — Hittite, in fact, if you look at their approach in the world, it starts at much further along, much further up the frequency spectrum and have started to move down.

		So, the overlap is actually very, very small. And, you know, we get — Stacy, we get a thousand — more than a thousand products that we can bring through our, you know, the greater channel scale that we have to our customers across the globe. So, I think the complementarity is (terrific). The overlap is quite

		small and you know, we’ll obviously in the — in the coming months and quarters, we will harmonize the product definition efforts and just get even more clarity about where each of the pieces plays.

		I think also it’s worth mentioning that, you know, our strength as a company in the — in the RF and microwave space is really around cellular infrastructure (point-to-point) and automotive, whereas the strength that Hittite has goes deeper into, you know, defense and aerospace, broadband, satellite and, you know, they’ve moved aggressively, as well, over the last couple of years into the infrastructure space. So, I think overall, it’s very complementary from a market portfolio, as well as technology and product portfolio.

Stacy Rasgon:		All right. Thank you. If I could really — if I could squeeze in one more really quick, it — I just wanted to confirm — you guys are saying it’s possible and you have the ability to meet your cash return target and pay off all the debt. Is that possible to do if you don’t get any revenue synergies? Because you say you’re not baking any of those in.

David Zinsner:		Yes, we have not assumed revenue synergies in that modeling.

Stacy Rasgon:		Got it. Thank you guys.

Vincent Roche:		Thank you.

Operator:		Your next question will come from the line of Craig Hettenbach with Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead with your question.

Craig Hettenbach:		Yes, thanks so much. You know, given that Hittite’s margins are already above ADI’s average, are there any things you can still do on that front, in terms of whether it’s leveraging the — your larger size scale or (things) from an end market perspective that you think you could improve margins from here? Or is it best, kind of, (really) around where they are currently?

David Zinsner:		Just on a combined basis, Craig, you mean, or specific to Hittite?

Craig Hettenbach:		Specific to Hittite.

David Zinsner:		Yes. I mean, obviously we think we have, you know, some operational scale that we can take advantage of as we integrate Hittite into our operation. So, the answer is yes — we do think we can actually improve the cost of manufacturing of Hittite’s parts as it gets kind of integrated into our operations.

Craig Hettenbach:		Got it. Thank you.

Operator:		Your next question will come from the line of Tore Slanderg with Stifel. Please go ahead with your question.

Tore Slanderg:		Congratulations to both management teams here. My question is on the management team — talk a little bit about what’s going to happen there and structurally, is this a business that Rick is going to be running internally?

Vincent Roche:		Yes, that’s a good question. So, you know, there’s a tremendous cultural overlap between the two organizations. We’re both very, very innovation, engineering-centric. So, what we’ve decided to do is ask — we’ve — Rick is going to run both pieces of the business. You know, Rick brings a wealth of experience, of course, from many, many decades, in fact, in the business. So, Rick will run both organizations from the point of closure here.

Tore Slanderg:		Very good. Thank you.

Operator:		Your next question will come from the line of Blayne Curtis with Barclays. Please go ahead.

Blayne Curtis:		Both sides, as well. Maybe you could talk about, Dave, the — you said you had maintained the fab relationships. From a technical perspective, would you be able to move some of these products on a go-forward basis (and turn) obviously (long haul) times and such, but just from a cost perspective on the longer terms, would you continue to have Hittite be fabless, or would there be a mix similar to your own business?

Vincent Roche:		Well, you know, we’ve got to figure all that out, of course. But I think number one, we want to make sure that we have continuity of supply to our customers over the long term. And, you know, make sure that we’ve got the (process) technologies in place without disruption to get the next crop of products out on the market.

		So, Rick, you might have a couple of comments, as well?

Rick Hess:		Yes, there are not a lot of products or a lot of processes that overlap with ADI’s internal capability. So, we will look at that to see where they are. But I don’t expect there’ll be a lot of process overlap. So, we will, for the most part, continue to use our external fabs.

Blayne Curtis:		Thank you.

Operator:		Our final question will come from the line of William Stein with SunTrust. Please go ahead.

William Stein:		Thanks for taking my call. I think there’s — you know, where there’s I think relatively different strategies for the two companies (as in) distribution, and I’m wondering if you can talk about synergies that you might achieve in the channel.

Vince Roche:		Yes, so, you know, ADI — we’ve got a long history of supplying very diverse, you know, products and across many, many markets and all the geographies. And I think one of the strategic benefits here is that, you know, given ADI’s scale, they just — the salesforce scale that we have and the relationships that we’ve got throughout the globe with a very deep and broad footprint of distribution, that’s a tremendous synergy between the — between the two companies.

		So, you know, the Hittite products will get the benefit of being able to be distributed broadly through our direct channel, as well as the indirect channel. And obviously over time, we will — you know, we will harmonize how we run the whole thing.

William Stein:		Thank you.

Operator:		Again, to ask a question, please press star one. And your next question will come from the line of Parker Paulin with Wells Fargo Securities. Please go ahead.

Parker Paulin:		Give an overview of (if you) expect overall headcount to change at all?

David Zinsner:		I’m sorry, you came in unclear. Can you repeat the question?

Parker Paulin:		Sorry. Do you expect overall headcount to change at all, following the acquisition?

Vincent Roche:		Well, you know, Hittite is a lean company. And, you know, Rick over time will decide how to — obviously, you know, we’re getting into this combination of the two companies to make sure that we drive growth for the, you know, for the — for ADI. And you know, get the leverage that we expect for the products and technologies that Hittite’s already got in place. So, you know, over time, Rick will figure out, you know, what the strategy is and, you know, obviously what the — what the structure is. But, you know, we’re in this for growth together.

Parker Paulin:		Thanks.

Operator:		Your next question will come from the line of Phil Nuzhdin with First New York. Please go ahead.

Phil Nuzhdin:		Hi, guys. Thank you for taking my question. The first one — could you be a little bit more specific on the regulatory approvals that will be required, specifically if you need approvals in China? And the second question is can you give any color on the process, you know, because it’s part of (an auction) and also what the walk date is for the merger?

David Zinsner:		I’ll have to mainly kind of push you towards the tender offer, which will detail a lot of that stuff. As I said, you know, on the regulatory approval side, it’s

		relatively modest. We don’t think that it’ll impede the deal at all. On the process side, we actually went to Hittite and to additionally discuss the idea and a process ensued after that. And all the details of that will be in the tender offer.

Phil Nuzhdin:		Great, thank you.

David Zinsner:		Sure.

Operator:		Your next question will come from the line of Stacy Rasgon with Bernstein. Please go ahead.

Stacy Rasgon:		Just one more housekeeping question — how are you going to be booking the revenue in your products splits? Are you going to be splitting it up so we can get a feeling for what the growth of this actually is, or are we going to be folding it into your product in other categories (for new reform)?

David Zinsner:		Yes, from a product perspective, it will go in that — as far as we can tell right now, it’ll go in the amplifier RF bucket; (we’ve since left) that category. And from an end market perspective, obviously, we’ll break it down — the portion of communications infrastructure-related will go into our communications infrastructure business. And the portion that’s military or test and measurement would go into our industrial category. So, we aren’t planning on breaking it out, although we’re — we’ll probably give you a feel for how it’s going over time.

Stacy Rasgon:		Got it. Thanks, guys.

Vincent Roche:		Thank you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Analog Devices Acquisition of Hittite

June 9, 2014

Q: What was announced today?

A: Hittite and ADI jointly announced that ADI plans to acquire our company for $78 per share. When this acquisition closes, which is planned for late July 2014, our employees, products, and customers will become part of ADI. We believe that together we can accelerate our revenue growth within the business-to-business markets we target. ADI is a leader in high performance signal processing with operations throughout the world, and with several thousand employees in Massachusetts, where the company is headquartered. Our leadership in high performance radio frequency (RF), microwave, and millimeter wave technology complements ADI’s own high performance RF portfolio. Like us, ADI has been dedicated to solving its customers’ toughest technical challenges since the company was founded in 1965.

Q: Will I still have a job?

A: ADI has stated that the acquisition is focused on growing ADI and Hittite’s capability in RF, microwave, and millimeter wave technologies, as well as expanding our presence in communications infrastructure, test and measurement, automotive, and military/aerospace. ADI has indicated that they are very excited about the key talent that we provide and that they look forward to having our employees join the ADI family.

There are some areas where we will have overlaps between the two organizations and we will be working together to determine the best way to perform these tasks. Fortunately we run a very lean organization so we hope to minimize any job loss and we think there are opportunities for redirection. We will gain a clearer understanding of this as we work through the integration process and will communicate updates as soon as we have additional information. Where jobs are eliminated employees will have the opportunity to be considered for any opening within ADI and will be eligible for generous separation benefits.

Q: Who will I report to?

A: Until the closing occurs, both companies will continue to operate independently conducting business as we do today. After closing, ADI will be establishing a new RF Business Unit combining the capabilities of both Hittite and the ADI RF Group. This new Business Unit will report to me, Rick Hess, and I will report to the ADI Product and Technology Group led by Dick Meaney. We expect most other reporting relationships to remain unchanged.

Q: Will any offices or facilities be closed or expanded as a result of the acquisition?

A: Until the closing occurs, ADI and Hittite will continue to operate as independent companies conducting business as we do today. ADI has stated that it has acquired Hittite for its talented workforce and we plan to work with ADI management to ensure that our work is not disrupted. We will communicate any decisions that may be made in consultation between our two companies.

Q: Will I have to relocate?

A: There are no current plans for relocations

Q: Will my pay change?

A: No. Employees will continue to be paid the same base salary and will continue to be eligible for awards consistent with current practices.

Q: What will happen to my benefits?

A: Most benefits will remain unchanged through the end of the calendar year. Beginning in 2015, we expect to move employees to ADI’s benefits plans. In the coming weeks, we will provide each employee with a detailed outline of ADI’s programs, which provide similar coverage to what you have today.

Q: Will there be any immediate changes to benefits?

A: After closing, we will be moving employees to ADI’s retirement savings plan in the US. The key benefit of this change will be a 5% company contribution and an additional 3% that can be provided as a match to employee contributions. In addition employees will immediately vest in the matching funds contributed by Hittite. The combined opportunity of 8% is a significant improvement that we wanted to make available immediately after the close.

Q: How does the transaction impact equity award and related plans?

A: The transaction increases the value to employees of their equity awards. In substitution for unvested restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards, employees will receive ADI equity with value established by the $78 per share offer price and a vesting schedule that is consistent with your current awards. Employees will be provided with a detailed statement about any outstanding stock awards prior to closing.

Q: What are the product and organizational integration plans?

A: At this time, we are planning to combine all of our products and ADI’s RF Group’s products into an RF Business Unit reporting to me, Rick Hess. Our sales, manufacturing, and other operations will become part of ADI’s existing organizations. Beyond this, we do not expect reporting relationships to change until the teams learn more about one another’s processes, talents, and aspirations.

Q: Who should I contact if I have questions?

A: If you have questions, please contact your vice president or manager.
