ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.
As more fully described in Item 4 below, pursuant to the terms of the
Asset Purchase Agreement (as defined below), RTIS has acquired 844,613 shares
of TriQuint Common Stock as a portion of the purchase price paid by TriQuint to
RTIS for substantially all the assets of the MMIC Business (as defined below).
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
On July 11, 1997, RTIS, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Raytheon Company, a
Delaware corporation ("Raytheon"), purchased the Gallium Arsenide ("GaAs")
foundry and Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit ("MMIC") business of the
R/F Microwave Business Unit of Texas Instruments Incorporated, a Delaware
corporation ("TI"), including, without limitation, TI's GaAs Operations Group,
TI's Microwave GaAs Products Business Unit, the MMIC component of TI's
Microwave Integrated Circuits Center of Excellence and the MMIC research and
development component of TI's Systems Component Research Laboratory
(collectively, the "MMIC Business");
Pursuant to a Final Judgment entered on November 6, 1997 (the "Final
Judgment") in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia in
Civil Case No. 97-1515 known as United States of America v. Raytheon Company
and Texas Instruments, Inc., a related Stipulation and Order entered in the
same case on July 2, 1997, and a related Hold Separate and Partition Plan
Stipulation and Order entered in the same case on July 2, 1997 (the "Hold
Separate Order"), Raytheon agreed to promptly divest the MMIC Business and,
pending such divestiture, to maintain the MMIC Business as an independent
competitor held separate from Raytheon.
Pursuant to and in accordance with the Final Judgment, RTIS and TriQuint
entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 8, 1998 (referred
to herein as the "Purchase Agreement," a copy of which is attached hereto as
Exhibit 1), pursuant to which RTIS sold and TriQuint purchased substantially
all the assets of the MMIC Business.
Upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase
Agreement on January 13, 1998 and pursuant to the terms of the Purchase
Agreement, TriQuint issued 844,613 shares of TriQuint Common Stock (the
"Shares") as partial consideration for the MMIC Business. In connection with
the Final Judgment, the Department of Justice required that RTIS place all the
Shares into a voting trust in order to divest itself of voting power with
respect to the Shares. Accordingly, RTIS entered into a Voting Trust Agreement
with State Street Bank and Trust Company, a Massachusetts trust company ("State
Street"), on January 13, 1998 (the "Voting Trust Agreement," a copy of which is
attached hereto as Exhibit 2) with respect to the Shares, which TriQuint issued
in the name of "State Street Bank and Trust Company, as Trustee" and delivered
to State Street to be held pursuant to the terms of the Voting Trust Agreement.
<PAGE>
Pursuant to the Voting Trust Agreement, State Street has sole voting
power with respect to the Shares. With respect to any matter for which any vote
or consent is requested from holders of TriQuint Common Stock, State Street
will, pursuant to the terms of the Voting Trust Agreement, vote the Shares as
nearly as practicable in the same proportion as the other holders of TriQuint
Common Stock with respect to such matter. RTIS has retained sole dispositive
power with respect to the Shares; RTIS has sole authority to direct State
Street to sell, assign or transfer the Shares, subject to the provisions of the
Voting Trust Agreement and TriQuint's rights to repurchase the Shares described
in Item 6 below.
Except as set forth in the Purchase Agreement and the Voting Trust
Agreement, neither RTIS nor, to the best of RTIS' knowledge, any of the
individuals named in Schedule I hereto, has any plans or proposals which relate
to or which would result in any of the actions specified in clauses (a) through
(j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
(a)-(b) By reason of its execution of the Voting Trust Agreement, pursuant
to Rule 13d-3(a)(2) promulgated under the Act, RTIS may be deemed to have sole
dispositive power with respect to the Shares subject to the Voting Trust
Agreement and, accordingly, may be deemed to beneficially own 844,613 Shares of
TriQuint Common Stock, or approximately 9.0% of the TriQuint Common Stock
outstanding on January 13, 1998.
Except as set forth above, neither RTIS nor, to the best of RTIS'
knowledge, any of the individuals named in Schedule I hereto, owns any TriQuint
Common Stock.
(c) Neither RTIS nor, to the best of RTIS' knowledge, any of the
individuals named in Schedule I hereto, has effected any transaction in the

<PAGE>
ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, for a period of 180 days after January
13, 1998, TriQuint may, at its option, repurchase from RTIS and RTIS will, at
the request of TriQuint, sell to TriQuint all of the Shares at a purchase price
equal to $19,500,000, subject to adjustment in certain events. By written
notice to RTIS received not later than the 180th day after January 13, 1998,
TriQuint may extend such period for an additional 180 days after such 180th day
after January 13, 1998. TriQuint's call rights described above lapse if not
exercised within the specified time periods.
Except as provided in the Purchase Agreement and the Voting Trust
Agreement or as set forth herein, neither RTIS nor, to the best of RTIS'
knowledge, any of the individuals named in Schedule I hereto, has any
contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise)
with any person with respect to any securities of TriQuint, including, but not

reasonably require to conduct the MMIC Business subsequent to the
Closing.
1.2. Excluded Assets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller is not
selling and the Buyer is not purchasing pursuant to this Agreement, and the
term "Acquired Assets" shall not include, any of the following assets (the

respectively, and collectively, the "MMIC Facilities");
(d) any rights under the Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of
January 4, 1997 between Parent and TI (the "TI Asset Purchase

(l) all corporate records of the Seller and all other records and
files not relating primarily to the MMIC Business.
1.3. Determinations as to Mixed-Use Assets. The Seller and the Buyer shall
cooperate in good faith to resolve any disputes as to whether any specific
assets (including, without limitation, any contracts and agreements) of the
Seller which relate to both the MMIC Business and another business of the
Seller are used primarily in, or relate primarily to, the MMIC Business.
Further, without limiting the foregoing, with respect to any asset necessary to
and presently used in connection with the MMIC Business that is also used by
the Seller in connection with another business, excluding any assets to be
retained by the Seller and used to provide services pursuant to the Master
Services Agreement, the parties shall cooperate in good faith to (i) determine
which business predominantly uses such asset in order that such party is vested
with title thereof and (ii) coordinate the shared used thereof by both parties.
With respect to any contracts or licenses applicable to both the MMIC Business
and other businesses of the Seller, the Seller and the Buyer will cooperate to
structure contractual arrangements providing them both with the relevant rights
and obligations under such contract or license. These arrangements may take the
form of a subcontract or sublicense or causing the other party to such contract
or license to agree to split the contract or license into two separate
agreements.
Article 2
Assumption of Certain Obligations
At the Closing, the Buyer shall assume, and agree to pay, perform, fulfill
and discharge, all obligations and liabilities of the Seller relating primarily
to the MMIC Business of any nature, fixed or contingent, known or unknown,
including liabilities for product warranty claims and product returns and

those liabilities for Taxes (as defined in Article 17) that remain the

Liabilities").
Article 3
Purchase Price
3.1. Purchase Price. At the Closing, the Buyer shall deliver cash and
shares of the Buyer's Common Stock, $.001 par value (the "Shares"), to the
Seller, as the aggregate purchase price for the Acquired Assets, subject to
adjustment as provided in Section 3.2 hereof (the "Purchase Price"). The
Purchase Price shall be payable as follows: (i) $19,500,000 shall be paid in
cash or by wire transfer of same day funds (the "Cash Portion") and (ii) the
remainder of the Purchase Price shall be paid by delivery of Shares (the "Stock
Portion") having an aggregate value equal to $19,500,000, based on the average
of the closing bid prices of the Shares on the five trading days preceding the
Closing Date, as quoted through the NASDAQ National Market (the "Closing
Trading Price"); provided, however, that if the number of Shares that would
constitute the Stock Portion exceeds 9.9% of the number of Shares outstanding
as of the Closing Date after giving effect to the issuance of the Shares
constituting the Stock Portion, then (a) the Stock Portion shall consist of
9.9% of the number of Shares outstanding as of the Closing Date after giving
effect to the issuance of the Shares constituting the Stock Portion and (b) the
Cash Portion shall consist of (x) $39,000,000 less (y) the value, based on the
Closing Trading Price, of the Shares constituting the Stock Portion referred to
in clause (a). The Shares comprising the Stock Portion are entitled to the
rights, and subject to the limitations, set forth in the Registration Rights
Agreement (as defined in Section 6.12), as amended by the Amendment to
Registration Rights Agreement (as defined in Article 9) (as so amended, the
"Amended Registration Rights Agreement"), which shall include "demand" and
"piggyback" registration rights beginning 180 days after the Closing Date. The
Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Acquired Assets in the manner set
forth on Schedule 3.1 hereto. The Buyer and Seller shall report the purchase
and sale of the Acquired Assets, including, without limitation, in all federal,
foreign, state, local and other Tax Returns (as defined in Article 17) prepared
and filed by or for either of the Buyer or the Seller, in accordance with the
basis of allocation set forth on Schedule 3.1 hereto. The Buyer and the Seller
further agree that they will prepare and file asset acquisition statements on
<PAGE>
Form 8594 reflecting such allocation with their Federal income tax returns for
the taxable year that includes the Closing Date.
3.2. Purchase Price Adjustments.
(a) Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall
prepare and deliver to the Buyer an audited statement of the Acquired
Assets and Assumed Obligations for the MMIC Business as of the close of
business on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date (the "Closing
Balance Sheet"). The Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in
accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with the October
Balance Sheet (as defined in Section 5.5), except that the Closing
Balance Sheet (i) will be prepared in accordance with the accounting
procedures set forth on Schedule 3.2(a) hereto, (ii) will not include any
cash or cash equivalents of the MMIC Business, (iii) will not have an
accrual for Income Taxes payable by the Seller and (iv) will not contain
any intercompany accounts.
(b) When the Seller delivers the Closing Balance Sheet, the Seller
shall also deliver a certificate (i) certifying that the Closing Balance
Sheet was prepared in accordance with paragraph (a) above, and (ii)
containing the Seller's calculations, based on the Closing Balance Sheet
and calculated in a manner consistent with the Model Statement (as
defined below) (the "Seller's Proposed Calculations"), of the Net Assets
as of the Closing Date. As used in this Agreement "Net Assets" means the
difference of (x) the book value of the total assets of the MMIC Business
(including, without limitation, equipment, accounts receivable,
inventory, prepaid expenses and deferred charges, but excluding cash and
cash equivalents and intercompany accounts) constituting part of the
Acquired Assets less (y) the book value of the total liabilities of the
MMIC Business (including, without limitation accounts payable and accrued
expenses, but excluding pension and accumulated post-retirement benefits,
intercompany accounts and retained earnings) constituting part of the
Assumed Obligations. Attached hereto as Schedule 3.2(b) is a preliminary
statement of Net Assets as of October 31, 1997, based upon the balance
sheet of the MMIC Business as of October 31, 1997 and the procedures for
calculating Net Assets as provided above (the "Model Statement").
(c) Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Closing Balance
Sheet and the accompanying certificate, the Buyer shall notify the Seller
of its agreement or disagreement with the Closing Balance Sheet and the
<PAGE>
accuracy of any of the Seller's Proposed Calculations; provided, that the
Buyer may only dispute the Closing Balance Sheet and the Seller's
Proposed Calculations to the extent that they deviate from the
requirements of paragraphs (a) and (b) above. If the Buyer disputes any
such aspect of the Closing Balance Sheet or the amount of any of the
Seller's Proposed Calculations, then the Buyer shall have the right to
direct its independent accountants, at the Buyer's expense, to review and
test the Closing Balance Sheet. The Buyer's accountants shall complete
their review and test within thirty (30) days after the date the Buyer
disputes the Seller's Proposed Calculations. If the Buyer and its
independent accountants, after such review and test, still disagree with
the Seller's Proposed Calculations, and the Seller does not accept the
Buyer's proposed alternative calculations (the "Buyer's Proposed
Calculations"), then, within thirty (30) days after the date of the
Seller's rejection of the Buyer's Proposed Calculations, the Seller and
the Buyer shall select a third nationally recognized independent
accounting firm (the "Independent Accounting Firm") to resolve the
remaining disputed items (the "Remaining Disputed Items") by conducting
its own review and test of the Closing Balance Sheet and thereafter
selecting either the Buyer's Proposed Calculation of the Remaining
Disputed Items or the Seller's Proposed Calculation of the Remaining
Disputed Items or an amount in between the two. The Independent
Accounting Firm shall be instructed (i) that the scope of its review
shall be limited solely to the Remaining Disputed Items, (ii) that it
shall accept the Closing Balance Sheet and the Seller's Proposed
Calculations except to the extent that they deviate from the requirements
of paragraphs (a) and (b) above, and (iii) that it is to use every
reasonable effort to complete such assignment and deliver copies of such
opinion and, if required, a revised Closing Balance Sheet to the Buyer
and the Seller within thirty (30) days following the date such Remaining
Disputed Items are referred to it. The Buyer and the Seller agree that
they shall be bound by the determination of the Remaining Disputed Items
by the Independent Accounting Firm. The fees and expenses of the
Independent Accounting Firm shall be paid jointly by the Buyer and the
Seller.
(d) Upon the determination pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section
3.2 of the definitive Closing Balance Sheet and the Net Assets as of the
Closing Date, the Purchase Price shall be either (i) increased by the
amount, if any, by which the amount of Net Assets is greater than
$23,637,000 or (ii) decreased by the amount, if any, by which the amount
of Net Assets is less than $23,437,000 (the "Adjustment"). If the
Purchase Price is increased, the Buyer shall pay such amount to the
<PAGE>
Seller, and if the Purchase Price is decreased, the Seller shall pay such
amount to the Buyer. Any such payment shall be made in cash or same day
funds within ten (10) days after the determination of the Adjustment
pursuant to paragraph (c). Any such payment shall bear interest at a rate
equal to the "Prime Rate" as set forth from time to time in The Wall
Street Journal "Money Rates" column from the Closing Date to the date
preceding payment.
3.3. Call Option on Shares. For a period of 180 days after the Closing
Date, the Buyer may, at its option, repurchase from the Seller, and the Seller
will at the request of the Buyer sell to the Buyer, all (but not less than all)
of the Shares constituting the Stock Portion at a purchase price equal to
$19,500,000 (or, in the event that the proviso to the second sentence of
Section 3.1 is applicable, such lesser amount corresponding to the value, based
on the Closing Trading Price, of the Shares constituting the Stock Portion)
(the "Call Price"). By written notice to the Seller received not later than the
180th day after the Closing Date, the Buyer may extend such period for an
additional 180 days after such 180th day after the Closing Date, provided that
the Buyer shall pay the Seller interest on a monthly basis at the daily rate
equivalent of 1% per month on the amount of the Call Price for the portion of
such additional 180 day period during which the Shares constituting the Stock
Portion have not been repurchased. The Buyer's call rights under this Section
3.3 shall be exercisable by the Buyer by written notice to the Seller
specifying the date and time of a closing for the repurchase (the "Call
Notice"), which shall be held at the offices of Bingham Dana LLP, 150 Federal
Street, Boston, Massachusetts, not earlier than five (5) days nor later than
ten (10) days after delivery of the Call Notice to the Seller. The receipt of a
Call Notice by the Seller shall constitute a binding agreement of the Buyer to
purchase the Shares constituting the Stock Portion from the Seller in
accordance with this Section 3.3. At the closing of the call option, the Buyer
shall pay the Seller the Call Price (plus any accrued but unpaid interest
thereon in accordance with this Section 3.3) in cash or by wire transfer of
same day funds, in exchange for the transfer of the Shares constituting the
Stock Portion from the Seller to the Buyer. The Buyer's call rights set forth
in this Section 3.3 shall lapse if not exercised within the time periods
specified above in accordance with the provisions hereof.
3.4. Delay in Demand Registration. In the event that (i) the Seller, at
any time after the 180th day after the Closing, requests the Buyer in writing
to file a registration statement with respect to any of the Shares pursuant to
Section 2 of the Amended Registration Rights Agreement, (ii) the Buyer requests
that the filing of such registration statement be delayed for a period not in
excess of 180 days by delivery to the Seller of a certificate signed by the
Chairman of the Board of the Buyer pursuant to Section 2(d)(ii) of the Amended
<PAGE>
Registration Rights Agreement stating that in the good faith judgment of the
Board of Directors it would be seriously detrimental to the Buyer and its
shareholders for such registration statement to be filed and that it is
therefore essential to defer the filing of such registration statement, and
(iii) the Buyer has not extended its call option under Section 3.3 for an
additional 180 days after the 180th day after the Closing Date and is therefore
not paying the Seller interest as contemplated by Section 3.3, the Buyer shall
pay the Seller interest on a monthly basis at the daily rate equivalent of 1%
per month on the amount of the Call Price for the period of such delay.
Article 4

documents and instruments necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement (the "Closing") shall be held at the offices of Bingham Dana
LLP, 150 Federal Street, Boston, Massachusetts, on the fifth business day
following completion of the regulatory approval referred to in Sections 7.1 and
7.2, but in any case on or before January 26, 1998, or at such other time or

by wire transfer to the Seller and the Stock Portion of the Purchase
Price by delivery of stock certificates in appropriate form.
<PAGE>

Article 5
Representations And Warranties Of Seller
The Seller represents and warrants to the Buyer as follows:

validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware
and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on the MMIC
Business as now conducted.

has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement
and the other Transaction Documents, to perform all of its agreements and
obligations hereunder and thereunder in accordance with their terms, and to

been duly executed and delivered by the Seller and constitutes, and the
Transaction Documents when executed and delivered by the Buyer will constitute,
the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Seller, enforceable against the
Seller in accordance with its terms, except as such validity, binding effect or
enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting
creditors' rights generally or by equitable principles relating to the
availability of remedies.
5.3. No Defaults. Except for consents to transfer with respect to any
agreement that is part of the Acquired Assets and except as set forth on
Schedule 5.3, and the consent referred to in Section 7.1 hereof, the entering
into of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the performance and
compliance by the Seller with the terms hereof and thereof, and the
consummation of all the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, will not
either currently, or after notice or lapse of time or both:
<PAGE>
(a) result in a violation of any provision of the charter, by-laws
or other organizational documents of the Seller; or
(b) result in a violation by the Seller of any statute, regulation,
order, law, ordinance or restriction applicable to the Seller, other than
any violation which would not have a Material Adverse Effect; or
(c) result in a violation by the Seller of any judgment, order or
decree of any court or judicial or quasi-judicial tribunal applicable to
the Seller, other than any violation which would not have a Material
Adverse Effect; or
(d) violate or conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute
a default or acceleration of or give rise to a right of termination (or
an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a
default) under, any provision of any contract, indenture, mortgage,
lease, agreement or other instrument primarily related to the MMIC
Business to which the Seller is a party or to which the MMIC Business is
subject, which would individually or in the aggregate have a Material
Adverse Effect.
5.4. Title to Assets. (a) The Seller owns or has the right to transfer all
of the Acquired Assets. At and as of the Closing, the Seller will convey to the
Buyer good and marketable title to the Acquired Assets, free and clear of all
Encumbrances (as defined in Article 17) except for Permitted Encumbrances (as
defined in Article 17); provided, however, that this paragraph (a) shall not be
considered a representation or warranty as to the non-infringement of any of
the intellectual property referred to in the Intellectual Property Agreement.
(b) Except as set forth on Schedule 5.4, the Acquired Assets and the
Subleases, when utilized by a labor force substantially similar to that
utilized by the Seller for the MMIC Business as of the date of this Agreement,
and taken together with the services to be provided by the Seller pursuant to
the Master Services Agreement and the other assets to be made available to the
Buyer as provided in Section 1.3, are sufficient for the fulfillment by the
Buyer of its obligations under the Supply Agreement as they exist as of the
Closing Date and are adequate to conduct the MMIC Business after the Closing
Date in the same manner in all material respects as such business was conducted
immediately prior to the Closing Date. The preceding sentence shall not be
construed as a representation as to the adequacy or scope of the intellectual
property to be conveyed, licensed or sublicensed pursuant to the Intellectual

and warranties as provided in Section 5.11.
(c) The Acquired Assets constituting tangible personal property are in

the purposes for which they are used, and conform in all material respects to
the requirements of all laws, ordinances and regulations applicable to their
use and ownership or lease by the Seller; and the buildings and structures
containing the space to be leased to the Buyer pursuant to the Subleases are
suitable in all material respects and properly zoned for the purpose for which
they are currently used, have been properly maintained in all material respects
to the extent the Seller is required to do so, and there are no material
outstanding work orders with respect to any maintenance, repair or alterations
to be performed by the Seller thereon.

the MMIC Business as of October 31, 1997 (the "October Balance Sheet"), and the
unaudited income statement of the MMIC Business for the one month period then
ended (the "October Income Statement"). Each of such financial statements has
been prepared in accordance with the Seller's accounting policies and practices
except as otherwise noted on Schedule 5.5; and except as otherwise noted on
Schedule 5.5, the October Balance Sheet fairly presents in all material
respects the financial condition of the MMIC Business as of October 31, 1997,
with the exception that the October Balance Sheet excludes an allocation for
costs associated with certain services currently provided to the MMIC Business
by Seller and Raytheon Company.

hereto;
(e) any voluntary forgiveness or cancellation of any debt or claim
of the MMIC Business in excess of $5,000 or any voluntary waiver of any
right of material value other than compromises of accounts receivable in
the ordinary course of business;
(f) the imposition of any Encumbrance on any of the assets of the
MMIC Business except for Permitted Encumbrances;
(g) any disposition of or lapse of any intellectual property right
or termination of any agreement under which the Seller (insofar as it
relates to the MMIC Business) has any right or license, the disposition,
lapse or termination of which would have a Material Adverse Effect;

agreement, including any joint venture agreement, teaming agreement,
distribution agreement, supply agreement, license agreement, personal

or expiration of which would have a Material Adverse Effect; or
(i) any intercompany transactions relating to the MMIC Business with
any Affiliate (as defined in Article 17) of the Seller, except (i) in the
ordinary course operation of the MMIC Business or (ii) involving

arbitration, action or suit is pending or, to the knowledge of the Seller,
threatened against the Seller (insofar as it relates to the MMIC Business),
except as set forth on Schedule 5.7 hereto and except for any such proceeding,
arbitration, action, or suit that alleges claims, singly or in the aggregate,
in excess of $100,000. As of the date of this Agreement, the Seller (insofar as
it relates to the MMIC Business) has not received any written notice from any
Governmental Entity of any pending or threatened governmental investigation
relating to the MMIC Business which, if concluded with a determination adverse

relating to employment and employment practices, or any violation of any
collective bargaining agreement, any unlawful discrimination in employment
practices or any unfair labor practices before any court, agency, or other
judicial or arbitral body, except for any such violation that would not
individually or in the aggregate be in excess of $100,000. As of the date of
this Agreement, there is no labor strike, dispute, slow-down or work stoppage

Neither the Seller nor, to the knowledge of the Seller, any other party to
any contract, agreement, lease or instrument listed on Schedules 1.1(g),
1.1(h), 5.9, 5.10(a) or 5.10(b) (collectively, the "Contracts") is, as of the
date of this Agreement, in default in complying with any provisions thereof,
except for any such default that would not have a Material Adverse Effect. All
Contracts are valid, legally binding and enforceable in accordance with their
respective terms in all material respects. As of the date of this Agreement,
there is no pending written claim or request, or to the Seller's knowledge, no
threatened claim or request, for equitable adjustment under any Government

same would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse

<PAGE>
exploit (to the extent set forth in the Intellectual Property Agreement) all

inconsistent with the terms of the Intellectual Property Agreement. The Seller
has used commercially reasonable measures to protect the secrecy,
confidentiality and value of the material MMIC Business Intellectual Property.
To the knowledge of the Seller, no material MMIC Business Intellectual Property

of any patents, trademarks, copyrights, mask works or trade secrets owned by
any third Person, or of the invalidity of any patent included in the MMIC
Business Intellectual Property, that would, individually or in the aggregate,
have a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of the Seller, the conduct of
the MMIC Business by the Buyer following the Closing in the manner currently
conducted by the Seller will not result in the infringement of any patent,
trademark, copyright, mask work or trade secret owned by any third Person that
would, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. There
are no interferences or other contested inter partes proceedings, either
pending or, to the knowledge of the Seller, threatened, in any domestic or

<PAGE>
Entity relating to any pending application with respect to any material MMIC
Business Intellectual Property.

on the part of the Seller, is required in connection with the consummation of
any of the transactions contemplated hereby, except for any approval,

investigations or proceedings by any Governmental Entity nor to the
knowledge of the Seller are any investigations or proceedings threatened,

proceeding relating thereto would not, individually or in the aggregate,
have a Material Adverse Effect.
(iii) Since December 31, 1994, no notice, notification, demand,
request for information, citation, summons, complaint or order has been
received by the Seller or, to the knowledge of the Seller, is pending or
threatened by any Person against, any part of the MMIC Business nor has
any material penalty been assessed against any part of the MMIC Business
with respect to any alleged violation of any Environmental Law or
liability thereunder, other than where such notice, notification, demand,
request for information, citation, summons, complaint or order has been
fully resolved, or where resolution would not, individually or in the
aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.
(iv) To Seller's knowledge, as of the date of this Agreement, no
Hazardous Substance has been discharged, generated, treated, manufactured,

or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.18. Brokers. Except for Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation, whose
fees and expenses will be paid by the Seller, no finder, broker, agent or other
intermediary has worked for or on behalf of the Seller in connection with the
negotiation or consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.
5.19 Taxes. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.19, as of the date of this
Agreement the Seller has timely filed within the time period for filing or any
extension granted, or appropriately amended, with respect thereto all federal,
<PAGE>
state, local and other returns, estimates and reports ("Returns") relating to
any and all Taxes or other governmental charges, obligations or fees including
any secondary or transferee liability for taxes and any related interest or
penalties it is required to file and such Returns were true and correct when
filed and were completed in accordance with applicable law in all material
respects. Except for Taxes contested in good faith and which are disclosed in
Schedule 5.19, as of the date of this Agreement the Seller has paid all Taxes
it is required to pay and has withheld with respect to the Seller's employees,
all federal and state income Taxes, FICA, FUTA and other Taxes required to be
withheld. No Tax Return of the Seller relating to the MMIC Business has been
examined or audited by the IRS or any other taxing authority. As of the date of
this Agreement there are no pending or, to the Seller's knowledge, threatened
audits, examinations, assessments, asserted deficiencies or claims for
additional Taxes with respect to the Seller. There are (and as of the Closing
there will be) no Encumbrances, other than Permitted Encumbrances, relating to
or attributable to Taxes, which if adversely determined, would result in an
Encumbrance, other than a Permitted Encumbrance, on the Acquired Assets or
would otherwise have a Material Adverse Effect upon the MMIC Business.
5.20 Absence of Undisclosed Liabilities.
(i) As of October 31, 1997, the Seller did not have any liability or
obligation (absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise) primarily related to
the MMIC Business of a nature required by GAAP to be reflected on the October
Income Statement or October Balance Sheet or disclosed in the notes thereto,
and from October 31, 1997 to the date of this Agreement the Seller has not
incurred any liability primarily related to the MMIC Business, in each case
except: (i) liabilities stated or adequately reserved against in the October
Balance Sheet; and (ii) liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business
and which are not individually or in the aggregate material to the financial
condition or earnings of the Seller insofar as it relates to the MMIC Business
or the value of the Acquired Assets; and
(ii) As of the date of this Agreement, the Seller has not been notified in
writing that any material supplier, client or customer of the Business had
made, or intends to make, a reduction in its present level of business with the
Seller as a result of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby
or for any other reasons.
5.21 Licenses. Except as disclosed on Schedule 5.21, all rights to operate
under all governmental licenses, permits, franchises and approvals and all
related vendor numbers which are required to conduct the MMIC Business, where
<PAGE>
and as such MMIC Business is conducted ("Licenses") are, and will be
immediately before the Closing, valid and in full force and effect and
enforceable in all material respects. Except as noted on Schedule 5.21, all of
such Licenses require the consent of, or a filing or qualification with, the
permitting or licensing authority with respect to the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement.
5.22 Collectibility of Gross Accounts Receivable. Except as indicated on
Schedule 5.22, as of the date of this Agreement the gross accounts receivable
reported on the October Balance Sheet represent valid claims against account
debtors for goods delivered or services rendered by the Seller. To the Seller's
knowledge, except as set forth on Schedule 5.22 as of the date of this
Agreement there is no reason why all such gross accounts receivable will not be
collected in the ordinary course of business, and as of the date of this
Agreement such gross accounts receivable are not subject to set-off or
counterclaim.
5.23. Investment Representations.
(a) Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with the
Seller in reliance upon the Seller's representation to the Buyer, which by the
Seller's execution of this Agreement the Seller hereby confirms, that the
Shares to be acquired by the Seller will be acquired for investment for the
Seller's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the
resale or distribution of any part thereof except pursuant to the Amended
Registration Rights Agreement or the call option referred to in Section 3.3
hereof and that the Seller has no present intention of selling, granting any
participation in, or otherwise distributing the same, except pursuant to the
Amended Registration Rights Agreement or the call option referred to in Section
3.3 hereof.
(b) Disclosure of Information. The Seller represents that it has had an
opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Buyer regarding the
terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The
foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the representations and warranties
of the Buyer in Article 6 of this Agreement or the right of the Seller to rely
thereon.
(c) Investment Experience. The Seller understands that the Shares have not
been, and prior to an appropriate registration statement's becoming effective
will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), by reason of a specific exemption from the registration
provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the
bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Seller's
representations as expressed herein. The Seller acknowledges that it is able to
<PAGE>
fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment and has such
knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable
of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Shares.
(d) Legends. The Seller understands that the Shares may bear one or all of
the following legends:
(i) "THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR
HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT
WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF
COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH
REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED."
(ii) Any legend required by the Blue Sky laws of any state to the
extent such laws are applicable to the shares represented by the
certificate so legended.
A certificate shall not bear such legends if in the opinion of counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer the securities represented thereby may be
publicly sold without registration under the Securities Act and any applicable
state securities laws.
(e) Restricted Securities. The Seller understands that the Shares are
characterized as "restricted securities" under the federal securities laws
inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Buyer in a transaction not
involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations
such Shares may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in
certain limited circumstances. The Seller acknowledges that the Shares must be
held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an
exemption from such registration is available.
(f) Accredited Investor. The Seller is an accredited investor as defined
in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

the Seller true and complete copies of, all agreements, contracts or

since November 1, 1996 through the date hereof (collectively, the "Buyer SEC
Reports"), and has previously furnished or made available to the Seller true
and complete copies of all Buyer SEC Reports. None of the Buyer SEC Reports, as
of their respective dates, contained any untrue statement of material fact or
omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading. Each of the balance sheets (including the related
notes) included in the Buyer SEC Reports presents fairly, in all material
respects, the consolidated financial position of the Buyer and its subsidiaries
as of the respective dates thereof, and the other related statements (including
the related notes) included therein present fairly, in all material respects,
the results of operations, the changes in shareholders equity and cash flows of
the Buyer and its subsidiaries for the respective periods or as of the
respective dates set forth therein, all in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles consistently applied during the periods involved, except
as otherwise noted therein and subject, in the case of the unaudited interim
financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments and any other adjustments
described therein. The Buyer has provided to the Seller true and correct copies
of the Buyer's unaudited consolidated statement of operations and statement of
cash flows for the nine months ended, and the Buyer's unaudited consolidated
balance sheet as of, September 27, 1997 (the "Buyer Unaudited Financial
Statements"). Such Buyer Unaudited Financial Statements present fairly in all
material respects the results of operations and cash flows for the nine months
ended, and the financial position of the Buyer and its subsidiaries as of,
September 27, 1997, all in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles consistently applied during the period involved except as otherwise
noted therein and except for the absence of footnote disclosures, and subject
to normal year-end adjustments and any other adjustments described therein. All
of the Buyer SEC Reports, as of their respective dates, complied in all
material respects with the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended.
6.10.Absence of Certain Changes or Events. During the period from
September 27, 1997 to the date of this Agreement, the business of the Buyer and
its subsidiaries has been conducted only in the ordinary course, consistent
with past practice, and neither the Buyer nor any subsidiary of the Buyer has
entered into any material transaction other than in the ordinary course,
consistent with past practice, and there has not been any change in the
condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations, assets, liabilities
or business of the Buyer other than changes arising in the ordinary course of
business consistent with past practices, none of which, individually or in the
<PAGE>
aggregate, has had, or is reasonably expected to have, a material adverse
effect on the business, operations, assets, liabilities or financial condition
of the Buyer and its subsidiaries taken as a whole.
6.11. Registration Statements. Since the Buyer's Registration Statement on
Form S-1 dated December 13, 1993, and the amendments thereto, and the Buyer's
Registration Statement on Form S-3 dated August 4, 1995, and the amendments
thereto, the Buyer has not filed any registration statement with the SEC, other

true, complete and correct copy of the Registration Rights Agreement dated
May 17, 1991 between the Buyer and certain of its stockholders, including all
amendments thereto to date (as so amended, the "Registration Rights
Agreement"). The Registration Rights Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and
binding obligation of the Buyer, enforceable against the Buyer in accordance
with its terms, and the Buyer is in compliance with all terms and conditions
thereof. The number of Registrable Securities (as such term is defined in the
Registration Rights Agreement) outstanding on the date hereof is 461,059 shares
of Common Stock of the Buyer, all of which shares are owned of record by Lucent
Technologies, Inc., which is the sole Holder (as such term is defined in the
Registration Rights Agreement) under the Registration Rights Agreement. A total
of three demand registrations remain available to Holders under Section 2 of
the Registration Rights Agreement. The right of first offer set forth in
Section 16.3 of the Registration Rights Agreement has expired.

Employees and Employee Benefits
11.1. Hiring Employees.
(a) At the Closing, the Buyer will offer employment to all persons
who are MMIC Business employees at Closing (including employees on leave,
disability or workers compensation) or are subject to outstanding
employment offers from the MMIC Business at Closing, except for any
persons listed on Schedule 11.1 (as such schedule may be updated by the
Buyer at the Closing, provided that the total number does not exceed 32).
All such offers shall be for the same pay and comparable benefits as
those in effect at Closing. Such offers and the benefits to be provided
to the Assumed Employees shall recognize the date of hire and time of
service with the Seller for all purposes. All employees accepting such
offers are referred to in this Agreement as "Assumed Employees" and their
employment with the Buyer will be deemed to have commenced immediately
after 11:59 p.m., Dallas local time, on the Closing Date.
(b) The Buyer agrees that, for a period of 60 days after the Closing
Date, it will not cause any of the Assumed Employees hired by it to
suffer "employment loss" for purposes of the Worker Adjustment and
Retraining Notification Act, 29 U.S.C. ss.ss.2101-2109, and related
regulations (the "WARN Act") if such employment loss could create any
liability for the Seller, unless the Buyer delivers notices under the
WARN Act in such a manner and at such a time that the Seller bears no
liability with respect thereto.
(c) Subject to the Seller having obtained the prior written consent
of the DOJ to rehire employees of the MMIC Business pursuant to this
Section 11.1(c), the Buyer may at any time up to ninety (90) days after
the Closing by written notice to the Seller cause the Seller to offer
employment to up to 32 (less the number of employees listed on Schedule
11.1, as such schedule may be updated by the Buyer at the Closing) of the
Assumed Employees, with such employees to be designated by the Buyer in
the notice. All such offers shall be for the same pay and comparable
benefits as in effect at the Closing. The persons accepting the Seller's
offers of employment are referred to herein as the "Rehired Employees".
In the event any persons designated by the Buyer for rehiring do not
accept the Seller's employment offer, if the Buyer within the next thirty
<PAGE>
(30) days terminates such employees' employment and the Buyer is
responsible for severance to such employees consistent with Section
11.2(b) below, the Seller shall reimburse the Buyer for such severance.
In addition, in the event that by the 90th day after the Closing the
Seller has not obtained the prior written consent of the DOJ to rehire
employees of the MMIC Business pursuant to this Section 11.1(c), the
Buyer may by written notice to the Seller designate up to 32 (less the
number of employees listed on Schedule 11.1, as such schedule may be
updated by the Buyer at the Closing) of the Assumed Employees that the
Buyer intends to terminate within the next thirty (30) days. In the event
that the Buyer within such thirty (30) day period terminates such
employees' employment and the Buyer is responsible for severance to such
employees consistent with Section 11.2(b) below, the Seller shall
reimburse the Buyer for such severance.
11.2. Benefit Plans Generally.
(a) Liabilities Generally. Except as expressly provided in this
Agreement, Seller shall retain exclusive liability and responsibility for
providing any and all benefits due and payable to or in respect of all
employees of the MMIC Business and related participants and beneficiaries
under any ERISA Plan or Non-ERISA Plan in accordance with the terms of
such plans and applicable law.
(b) Benefits Maintenance. Commencing as of the Closing Date and
continuing through December 31, 1998 (the "Benefits Continuation
Period"), with respect to the Assumed Employees and dependents and
beneficiaries thereof, Buyer shall provide compensation, employee welfare
plans, stock-based incentive plans and other employee benefits which are
substantially comparable in the aggregate to the compensation paid by the
Seller, and the plans and other benefits provided (without application of
any exclusion for a pre-existing condition) by applicable ERISA and
Non-ERISA Plans, immediately prior to the Closing Date, valuing any
stock-based compensation, for this purpose, under any reasonable method;
provided, that nothing herein shall be construed to require the Buyer to
provide Assumed Employees with any pension benefits or retiree medical
benefits. During the Benefits Continuation Period, the Buyer shall
maintain severance, reduction-in-force and pay-in-lieu-of-notice benefits
for the Assumed Employees no less favorable than the severance,
reduction-in-force and pay-in-lieu of notice benefits provided to such
Assumed Employees by Seller immediately prior to the Closing Date and
disclosed on Schedule 5.10(a) or (b).
<PAGE>
11.3 Savings Plan. The Seller will retain all liability and responsibility
for the disposition of interests under the Raytheon TI Systems Savings Plan
(the "Savings Plan"), with respect to those employees (or their beneficiaries)
of the MMIC Business who, as of the Closing Date, are participants in the
Savings Plan. The Seller agrees that it will cause the accounts in the Savings
Plan of all such participants to be fully vested as of the Closing Date.
Effective as of the Closing Date, Seller shall amend the Savings Plan if and as
necessary (i) to cause the active participation of the Assumed Employees
therein to cease as of the Closing Date, and (ii) to permit Assumed Employees
to elect to take distributions (subject to applicable law) of their accounts
thereunder and, if such Assumed Employees so elect, to roll them over, directly
or otherwise, in accordance with applicable law and regulations, to an
individual retirement account or to one or more defined contribution retirement
plans qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code (the "Buyer Defined
Contribution Plans") and maintained by Buyer or one of its subsidiaries, and
the Buyer Defined Contribution Plans shall accept such rollovers (including to
the extent practicable any plan loans).
11.4 Pension Plans. The Seller will retain all liability and
responsibility for the disposition of interests under the Raytheon TI Systems
Employees Pension Plan and the Raytheon TI Systems Supplemental Pension Plan
(collectively, the "Pension Plans"), with respect to those employees (or their
beneficiaries) of the MMIC Business who, as of the Closing Date, are
participants in either of the Pension Plans. Effective as of the Closing Date,
Seller shall amend the Pension Plans to recognize as service with the Seller
for all plan purposes the service of the Assumed Employees with the Buyer, if
any, in the Benefits Continuation Period, to recognize as compensation paid by
the Seller any compensation paid the Assumed Employees by the Buyer for
services rendered in the Benefits Continuation Period, and to recognize, for
those Assumed Employees who have at least 15 years of service and are at least
age 50 as of the Closing Date, the Seller's "Bridge to Retirement" additional
service time benefit, provided the Buyer shall have timely complied with any
information request the Seller shall reasonably make to effect all such
recognitions. The Seller further agrees that it will cause the accrued benefit
of each such employee under the Pension Plans as of the Closing Date and
through the Benefits Continuation Period to be fully vested as of the Closing
Date.
11.5 Incentive Plans. Attached as Schedule 11.5 hereto is a description of
the Seller's internal sales and marketing incentive plans and retention
agreements (the "Incentive Plans"). The Buyer agrees to assume as part of the
Assumed Obligations the Seller's obligations under the Incentive Plans,
<PAGE>
including with respect to the retention agreements Seller's obligations
for the current plan year. With respect to any amounts to be paid with respect
to 1997, the Seller will pay the amounts due (as set forth in Schedule 11.5)
without giving effect to any plan requirement that the Assumed Employees remain
employees of the Seller as of February 1, 1998. The Seller agrees to either
reimburse the Buyer in cash for all disbursements made by the Buyer in
connection with the Incentive Plans or to create an accrued liability on the
Closing Balance Sheet for the amount to be disbursed.
11.6 Stock Option Plan. Seller shall, if appropriate, cause the stock
option plans of Raytheon Company (the "Raytheon Stock Plans") to be amended and
to make adjustments and take actions (and Buyer shall take such actions as are
reasonably required to implement the same) with respect to options (including,
without limitation, incentive stock options) on Raytheon Company Common Stock
which are outstanding under the Raytheon Stock Plans immediately prior to the
Closing Date and which are held by Assumed Employees and are not vested as of
the Closing Date (the "Raytheon Options") to provide that, pursuant to the
equitable adjustment provisions of the applicable Raytheon Stock Plan, such
Raytheon Options will be converted into and represent (pursuant to a
methodology consistent with Section 424 of the Code, with respect to the values
of Raytheon Common Stock and Buyer Common Stock which are reasonably agreed to
by Buyer) the right to acquire from Buyer shares of Buyer Common Stock, with
such other amendments and adjustments proposed by Buyer as are reasonable and
appropriate consistent with Buyer's current stock option plan. These actions
and adjustments shall be made and become effective as soon as reasonably
practicable. Any liabilities or other obligations with respect to such
converted Raytheon Options shall be Assumed Obligations.
11.7 Accrued Vacation. The Seller agrees to pay the Assumed Employees, as
promptly as practicable after the Closing, an amount equal to their accrued
vacation as of the Closing, less any required withholding.

<PAGE>
of a third Person, and such consent is not obtained prior to the Closing,
or if such transfer or attempted transfer would constitute a breach

transfer or an attempted transfer thereof. Each of the Buyer and the
Seller shall use reasonable efforts at its own expense to obtain any such
approvals.

to in paragraph (a) are not obtained then the Seller and the Buyer will
each use reasonable efforts, each at its own expense, to (i) provide to

in any reasonable and lawful arrangement designed to provide such

submitted by Seller to each Responsible Contracting Officer, for the
United States Government (i) to recognize the Buyer as the Seller's
successor in interest to all the Acquired Assets constituting a
Government Contract; and (ii) to enter into a novation agreement (a
"Novation Agreement") in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Buyer and the Seller and their respective counsel, pursuant to which,
subject to the requirements of the Federal Acquisition Regulations Part

Seller's obligations and liabilities under, each such Government Contract
shall be validly conveyed, transferred and assigned and novated to the

promptly any information regarding the Seller required in connection with
such request. The Seller and the Buyer shall each use all reasonable

(b) In connection with obtaining the consents contemplated in

destroyed, at the Seller's expense, or (B) notify the Buyer that the
Seller will pay the cost of storing and maintaining such files or records
(including any necessary costs of moving such files or records to a
location under control of the Seller).

after the Closing Date it will cease using any references to the Seller,
Parent, TI or any of their respective Affiliates, including any such use in
connection with the use of existing supplies of labels, signs, letterhead and

catalogs and other promotional materials so long as they are stickered so as to
indicate that the MMIC Business is no longer affiliated with the Seller.
<PAGE>
12.5 Non-Solicitation. After the Closing, for a period of two years from
July 2, 1997, except as provided in Section 11.1(c), the Seller shall not (a)

third party, whether private or a Governmental Entity, required in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The parties hereto agree

The Buyer and the Seller will use reasonable efforts to effect this move in a
manner that does not unreasonably disrupt the operations of the Seller or the
Buyer. The Seller agrees to pay (up to an aggregate of $8,764,000) (a) the
Buyer's reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the move
and (b) the cost of constructing demising walls and other improvements in the
North Building required to set up the Buyer's research and development
operations and separate the Buyer's business from the Seller's business, in

parties. Subject to the terms of the Sublease Agreements, any leasehold
improvements resulting from such payments shall be deemed to be owned by the

payments received by the Buyer from any customers obligated in respect of any
Collection Receivables shall be deemed to have been made in respect of, and
shall be applied to, the Collection Receivable of such customer bearing the
earliest date unless the customer has specified the particular account to which
a remittance pertains, in which case the credit shall be made to the account
specified.
(b) The Buyer will not accept any returns of defective products or give
any credit for defective products with respect to any products relating to the
Collection Receivables without the Seller's prior consent, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld. The Buyer may accept returns of products or give

than the products being defective. For purposes of paragraph (c) below, (i) any
Collection Receivables relating to product returns or credits made in
compliance with the first sentence of this paragraph (b) shall be considered
unpaid at the end of the applicable Collection Period (as defined below) and
(ii) any Collection Receivables relating to product returns or credits made
pursuant to the second sentence of this paragraph (b) or made pursuant to the

(less applicable reserves attributable to Collection Receivables set forth on
the Closing Balance Sheet) is not paid by the first anniversary of the
recording of such Collection Receivable (the "Collection Period"), within ten
days after the end of any such Collection Period, the Buyer shall deliver to
the Seller a final statement setting forth all amounts collected by the Buyer
with respect to such Collection Receivable, and listing all Collection
Receivables (or portion thereof) remaining unpaid after the Collection Period,
after giving effect to the provisions of paragraph (b) above (the "Unpaid
Accounts"). Provided that the Buyer has complied with its obligations under
<PAGE>
this Section 12.10, within five business days of the delivery of such statement,
the Seller will pay to the Buyer the balance of the Unpaid Accounts,
net of any reserve for uncollected accounts set forth on the Closing Balance
Sheet (as finally adjusted pursuant to Section 3.2) which has not been
previously applied to any Unpaid Account under this paragraph (c). Any amounts
collected by the Seller or the Buyer with respect to any Unpaid Accounts after
the Collection Period for such Unpaid Account shall be the property of the
Seller and the Seller may take such measures to enforce collection of the
unpaid items as the Seller shall deem necessary.
(d) In the event that the Buyer collects more with respect to the
Collection Receivables than the total amount attributable to the Collection
Receivables (net of any reserve) on the Closing Balance Sheet (as finally
adjusted pursuant to Section 3.2), the Buyer will remit to the Seller any such
excess amount.
12.11. Buyer's Business. Except as may be otherwise contemplated by this
Agreement or required by any of the documents listed in any Schedule to this
Agreement, the Buyer covenants and agrees that, from and after the date of this
Agreement and until the Closing, it shall carry on its business in the ordinary
course substantially in the same manner as heretofore conducted.

of such an assumption the Indemnifying Party shall have the authority to

Article 14
Tax Matters
14.1. General. The Seller shall remain responsible for all Income Taxes
(as defined in Article 17) of the Seller payable in connection with the
operation of the MMIC Business prior to the Closing. The Seller shall also
remain responsible for the filing of all related Tax Returns (as defined in
Article 17).
14.2. Cooperation on Tax Matters; Conduct of Proceedings.
(a) The Buyer and the Seller shall cooperate fully, as and to the
extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the
preparation and filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Article 14 and any
audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such
cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party's
request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably
relevant to such preparation and filing and to any audit, litigation or
other proceeding relating thereto and making employees available on a
mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and
explanation of any material provided hereunder.
(b) The Seller shall be responsible for defending any audit,
litigation or other proceeding with respect to any Taxes of the Seller
for which the Seller is wholly or partially responsible for payment
pursuant to this Article 14 and shall have the authority to negotiate,
compromise and settle any such audit, litigation or other proceeding.
14.3. Allocation of Transfer and Property Taxes. (a) All excise, sales,
use, value added, registration stamp, recording, documentary, conveyancing,
franchise, property, transfer, gains and similar Taxes, levies, charges and
<PAGE>
fees including any deficiencies, interest, penalties, additions to Tax or
additional amounts excluding any Income Taxes (collectively, "Transfer Taxes")
incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
shall be borne by Seller. Buyer and Seller shall use reasonable efforts to
minimize the amount of all Transfer Taxes and shall cooperate in providing each
other with any appropriate resale exemption certifications and other similar
documentation. The party that is required by applicable law to make the
filings, reports or returns and to handle any audits or controversies with
respect to any applicable Transfer Taxes shall do so, and the other party shall
cooperate with respect thereto as necessary.
(b) All real property taxes, personal property taxes and similar ad
valorem obligations levied with respect to the Acquired Assets for a taxable
period which includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (collectively, the
"Apportioned Obligations") shall be apportioned between Seller and Buyer based
on the number of days of such taxable period which fall on or before the
Closing Date (this and any other tax period which includes one or more days
falling on or before the Closing Date, a "Pre-Closing Tax Period") and the
number of days of such taxable period after the Closing Date (a "Post-Closing
Tax Period"). Seller shall be liable for the proportionate amount of such taxes
that is attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period, and Buyer shall be liable
for the proportionate amount of such taxes that is attributable to the
Post-Closing Tax Period. Upon receipt of any bill for real or personal property
taxes relating to the Acquired Assets, each of Seller and Buyer shall present a
statement to the other setting forth the amount of reimbursement to which each
is entitled under this Section together with such supporting evidence as is
reasonably necessary to calculate the proration amount. The proration amount
shall be paid by the party owing it to the other within 30 days after delivery
of such statement. In the event that either Seller or Buyer shall make any
payments for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this Section, the
other party shall make such reimbursement promptly but in no event later than
ten (10) days after the presentation of a statement setting forth the amount of
reimbursement to which the presenting party is entitled along with such
supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the amount of
reimbursement.
14.4. Allowable Taxes. (a) For purposes of this Section, "Allowable Tax"
shall mean the allocable share of any Tax of Seller or any of its Affiliates
which is an allowable cost under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, 48 CFR
Chapter 1, and associated regulations and agreements between Seller and any
<PAGE>
U.S. governmental entity, allocated based on Seller's existing finance policy
(as it is in effect on the date hereof).
(b) If Seller has paid or reimbursed Buyer for any Allowable Tax
which is attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, Buyer agrees to repay
to Seller promptly upon receipt any portion of such Allowable Tax that
Buyer or any of its Affiliates is ultimately able to recover from the
United States government.
(c) If Buyer or any of its Affiliates receives a refund with respect
to an Allowable Tax that is attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period,
Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount of such refund reduced by the
amount, if any, that Buyer will be required to pay to the United States
government or suffer by reason of offset in accordance with the Federal
Acquisition Regulation, 48 CFR Chapter 1, and associated regulations and
agreements between Seller and any U.S. governmental entity. If Seller
receives a refund after the Closing Date with respect to an Allowable Tax
that is attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, Seller will pay to
Buyer the amount, if any, which Buyer will be required to pay to the U.S.
government, or suffers by reason of an offset, in accordance with the
foregoing regulations.
(d) Seller and Buyer agree to cooperate with respect to the
calculation of any amounts payable pursuant to this Section and to give
each other written notice of events reasonably likely to result in the
increase or decrease of any Allowable Tax attributable to a Pre-Closing
Tax Period.
14.5. Scope of Article 14.
(a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 13, the provisions of
this Article 14 (and not Article 13) shall govern the allocation of
responsibility between the Seller and the Buyer for Taxes of the MMIC
Business.
(b) Claims under this Article 14 may be made by the Buyer and the
Seller at any time prior to the expiration of the statute of limitations
applicable to the Tax matter to which the Claim relates.

or the intentional default by the terminating party, or (b) the DOJ or DOD

Article 15, and except that any termination of this Agreement pursuant to the

party from any liability to the other party hereto. In addition, the provisions
of Article 18 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
Article 16
Confidentiality
16.1 Confidentiality Agreement. Any and all information disclosed by the

<PAGE>
16.1 by this reference. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Confidentiality
Agreement shall terminate upon the Closing.

This IRREVOCABLE VOTING TRUST AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made as of
this 13th day of January, 1998 by and between Raytheon TI Systems, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Seller"), and State Street Bank & Trust Company, a
Massachusetts trust company, and its successors in trust (the "Trustee").
WHEREAS, Seller is subject to a Final Judgment filed in the US District
Court for the district of Columbia on July 2, 1997 in connection with the
matter of United States of America v. Raytheon Company, et al., Civil Action
No. 97515 (the "Final Judgment") related to the sale of the MMIC Business (as
defined in the Final Judgment) currently owned and operated by Seller in
accordance with a Hold Separate and Partition Plan entered in the same case on
July 2, 1997;
WHEREAS, pursuant to and in accordance with the Final Judgment, Seller
and TriQuint Semiconductor, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Buyer"), have
entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of January 8, 1998 (the
"Asset Purchase Agreement") providing for the sale of
Seller's MMIC Business;
WHEREAS, in connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement the Buyer will
issue to the Seller as partial consideration for the MMIC Business shares of
the Buyer's Common Stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Voting Stock");
WHEREAS, in connection with the Final Order the Department of Justice has
required that the Seller place all such shares of Voting Stock received from
the Buyer into trust in order to divest itself of voting power with respect to
the Voting Stock;
WHEREAS, the Trustee has consented to act under this Agreement in the
manner and for the purposes provided herein; and
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants, promises and
agreements herein which are mutually and severally made by, and to be kept,
observed and performed by the parties hereto, it is hereby agreed as follows:
1. Transfer of Shares of Voting Stock to Trustee.
1.1. The Seller hereby assigns and transfers (or, promptly upon receipt

time the Voting Stock then held by the Trustee hereunder, the "Shares").
1.2. It is hereby expressly acknowledged and agreed by the parties to
this Agreement that (i) the transfer of any and all shares of Voting Stock to
<PAGE>
the Trustee and the registration of such shares of Voting Stock in the name of
the Trustee pursuant to this Section 1 are being effected solely for purposes
of implementing this Agreement and (ii) the Trustee shall hold such shares of
Voting Stock subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement.
2. Withdrawal or Release of Shares of Voting Stock.
2.1. No shares of Voting Stock shall be released or withdrawn from the

except as directed by the Seller in compliance with this Agreement.
2.2. The Trustee agrees to cooperate with the Seller, and to enter into
any agreement or execute any instruments required by the Seller, to effect any
sale, assignment or transfer of the Shares, all at the expense of the Seller in
accordance with Section 6. In the event that the Seller directs the Trustee to
transfer any of the Shares to the Seller, the Trustee shall not do so unless it
has received a written certification from an officer of the Seller certifying
that such transfer to the Seller does not conflict with or violate the Final
Order. No such certification shall be required for any transfer of Shares to a
third party. The Seller shall indemnify the Trustee pursuant to Section 6 below
for any losses, costs or expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with or
as a result of any act performed by the Trustee pursuant to this Section 2 at
the request or direction of the Seller.
2.3. In order to effect the withdrawal or release of any Shares from this
Agreement pursuant to this Section 2, or any transfer of Shares pursuant to
this Section 2, the Trustee shall promptly, upon written request by the Seller
and receipt of a certificate of the Seller if required pursuant to Section 2.2
above, take all such steps as shall be reasonably required to (i) assign and
transfer to the applicable transferee (or the Seller) the number of Shares
which are to be withdrawn, released or transferred and (ii) either (A) cause a
stock certificate or stock certificates representing such Shares to be issued
in the name of such transferee (or the Seller) or (B) deliver or cause to be
delivered to such transferee (or the Seller) the stock certificate or stock
certificates representing such Shares, together with duly executed stock powers
for the transfer of such Shares to such transferee (or the Seller).
2.4. Upon the withdrawal, release or transfer of any Shares pursuant to
this Section 2, the Trustee shall amend Schedule 1 hereof to reflect such
withdrawal, release or transfer.
2.5. The Trustee agrees not to effect any sale, assignment or transfer of
any Shares, or any release or withdrawal of Shares, except for a sale,
assignment or transfer, or a release or withdrawal, of Shares effected as
provided above in this Section 2.

Trustee shall pay or distribute such dividend to the Seller promptly upon
receipt of such dividend by the Trustee.
3.2. If the Buyer shall declare or pay a dividend on the Shares in voting
capital stock (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for voting
capital stock ), or shall otherwise distribute shares of voting capital stock
(or securities convertible into or exchangeable for voting capital stock) on
the Shares, the Trustee shall (i) receive and hold such shares of voting
capital stock or other securities subject to the terms of this Agreement and

stock, whereupon such additional shares of voting capital stock shall for all
purposes constitute "Shares" hereunder.
3.3. Upon any sale, assignment, conversion, redemption or other transfer
of the Shares, whether pursuant to merger, sale of the Shares, recapitalization
or reorganization involving the Shares, the Trustee will receive all
securities, cash and other property deliverable in respect of or issuable upon
such Shares, and will (i) distribute to the Seller all cash, securities and
other property (other than voting capital stock and securities convertible into
or exchangeable for voting capital stock), (ii) hold such voting capital stock
and other securities in accordance with this Agreement, and (iii) amend

3.4. With respect to any matter for which any vote or consent is
requested from holders of Voting Stock, the Trustee agrees that it will vote
the Shares as nearly as practicable in the same proportion as the Buyer's other
holders of the applicable class of Voting Securities with respect to such
matter. The Trustee may after the date hereof and after receipt of any
additional Voting Stock in trust hereunder, at the expense of the Seller, grant
an irrevocable proxy in respect of the Shares held in trust hereunder to an
officer or other designee of the Buyer, but only if such proxy is consistent
with the preceding sentence. Any irrevocable proxy entered into by the Trustee
in accordance with this Section 3.4 shall terminate upon any sale, assignment
or transfer of such Shares, and upon any release or withdrawal of such Shares
from this Agreement.

time, to cause certificates of shares of Voting Stock held by it as Trustee
hereunder to be transferred on the books of the Buyer into its own name as

Stock the Trustee shall assume no liability as stockholder, its interest
hereunder being solely that of Trustee.

respect of any and all such Shares held by the Trustee under this Agreement,
and subject to the terms hereof (including Section 3.4), possess and be
entitled to exercise all stockholder rights, including the right to vote and to

the Buyer.

which it deems reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with the
carrying out of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement.
5. Trustee: Procedure.
5.1. The Trustee may vote or may act in person, by consent or by proxy.

5.3. The Trustee may resign as Trustee hereunder upon delivery to the
Seller of a letter stating the intention of the Trustee to resign and stating

losses and liabilities incurred by it arising out of or in connection with
the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Agreement,
including liabilities incurred by Trustee in connection with the
enforcement of this Agreement against the Seller (including this Section
6), and in connection with defending itself against any claim asserted by
any third party. The Trustee shall notify the Seller promptly of any claim
for which it may seek indemnity. Any failure or delay by the Trustee so to
notify the Seller shall not relieve the Seller of its obligations
hereunder, except to the extent the Seller is actually disadvantaged by
such failure or delay. The Seller shall have the right to control any
litigation arising out of any such claim (including the selection of
