SALE AND PURCHASE AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT IS DATED 14 JUNE 2016 AND MADE BETWEEN:

(1) NXP B.V., a private limited liability company incorporated under the Laws of the Netherlands, with corporate seat in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, and address at High Xxxx Xxxxxx 00, 0000 XX Xxxxxxxxx, (the “Seller”);

(2) BEIJING JIANGUANG ASSET MANAGEMENT CO., LTD., a private limited liability company, incorporated under the Laws of the People’s Republic of China, with corporate seat in Beijing, trade register number 110107016735242, address at Beijing International Club Office Tower, Room 302, No. 21, Xxxx Xxx Men Xxx Street, Beijing, People’s Republic of China (“JAC Capital”); and

(3) WISE ROAD CAPITAL LTD, an exempted limited company incorporated in and under the Laws of the Cayman Islands, with registered office at c/o Offshore Incorporations (Cayman) Limited, Floor Willow House, Cricket Square, XX Xxx 0000, Xxxxx Xxxxxx XX0-0000 Xxxxxx Islands, and company registration number 299533 (“Wise Road” and hereinafter jointly with JAC Capital referred to as the “Purchasers” and each a “Purchaser”).

BACKGROUND:

(A) The Seller’s Group is active in (a) the business of researching, designing, developing, testing, manufacturing, commercializing, packaging, marketing, distributing, selling and servicing discrete semiconductor devices, low complexity ICs and integrated passives through the following NXP business lines: (i) BL GA Discretes, (ii) BL PowerMOS and (iii) BL Logic, a representative list of such products being included in Schedule 18 to the IP Transfer and License Agreement (the “Products”) and (b) the business of designing, developing, building, assembling, installing and maintaining high speed and high quality semiconductor assembly and test equipment for die placement and taping, integrated circuit testing, molding, wire bonding, vision and data handling, and of developing process recipes and software related to the use and maintenance of said equipment through ITEC (the businesses under (a) and (b) hereafter the “Business”). For the avoidance of doubt, any business (e.g. in respect of the small PowerMOS eSwitch discretes) historically conducted by Freescale Semiconductor does not form part of the Business;

(B) Prior to Completion, the Seller will incorporate a private company under the Laws of the Netherlands under the name of “Nexperia HoldCo Netherlands B.V.” (the “Company”), and will hold all the issued and outstanding shares of the Company (the “Shares”). The Business will be conducted through the Target Group Companies ultimately as of Completion;

1 / 52

(C) The Seller has initiated a sale of the Business through a controlled auction process and the Purchasers have been selected as the purchasers of the Business;

(D) The Seller and JAC Capital entered into a non-disclosure agreement dated 8 February 2016 (the “Non-Disclosure Agreement”), pursuant to which certain confidential information relating to the Business was made available to the members of the Purchasers’ Group and their Representatives;

(E) The Seller gave the Purchasers and their Representatives (i) access to the Data Room, (ii) the opportunity to attend and participate in meetings with the Business’ management and relevant experts, and (iii) the opportunity to ask and to receive answers to questions the Purchasers deemed necessary in relation to the Business and the Transaction. On that basis, the Purchasers and their Representatives have completed a comprehensive due diligence investigation with respect to the Business;

(F) At or prior to Completion, the Seller will procure that the Company will directly or indirectly hold all of the issued shares in the Dedicated Companies and other Target Group Companies (free of Encumbrances) and the Seller will procure the transfer of the assets (free of Encumbrances) and liabilities attributable to the Business to the Target Group Companies in accordance with Schedule 10 (Disentanglement Plan) and the other provisions of this agreement (the “Disentanglement”), save for those assets and liabilities not to be transferred to the Target Group Companies as set out in this agreement;

(G) The Seller has been provided with copies of the Equity Commitment Letters, executed by the Fund Investors and the Purchasers;

(H) The Seller has been provided with evidence that the Purchasers have taken reasonable steps to ensure that they will have sufficient funds available outside the People’s Republic of China to be readily able to pay the Completion Amount at Completion;

(I) The Parties have entered into the Escrow Agreement and the Purchasers have procured the deposit of the Deposit Amount into the Escrow Account; and

(J) Now, in consideration of the foregoing, the Seller wishes to sell and transfer the Shares to the Purchasers in portions to be determined by the Purchasers, and the Purchasers wish to acquire the Shares from the Seller, on the terms and subject to the conditions set out in this agreement (the “Transaction’’).

2 / 52

THE PARTIES AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

1 DEFINITIONS AND INTERPRETATION

In this agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, the definitions and provisions of Schedule 1 (Definitions and interpretation) apply throughout.

2 SALE, PURCHASE AND TRANSFER

2.1 Sale and purchase

On the terms and subject to the conditions of this agreement, the Seller hereby sells the Shares to the Purchasers, and the Purchasers hereby purchase the Shares from the Seller.

2.2 Transfer

At Completion, the Seller shall transfer the Shares to the Purchasers free from any Encumbrances and together with all rights and obligations attached to the Shares.

2.3 Directions of proportions and nomination other party

2.3.1 Subject to the Purchasers being jointly and severally liable (hoofdelijk aansprakelijk) for all obligations of the Purchasers under this agreement, the Purchasers shall direct the proportions in which they are to receive and accept the Shares and the Shareholder Loan (if applicable) at Completion no later than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Completion Date.

2.3.2 The Purchasers shall be entitled to nominate, to the extent permitted by Law, at their own cost, by notice to the Seller delivered no later than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Completion Date, an entity incorporated, and (directly or indirectly) wholly owned jointly, by the Purchasers to which entity all of the Shares will be transferred and the Shareholder Loan will be assigned at Completion (if applicable), provided that such nomination shall not (i) adversely impact the satisfaction of the Completion Conditions set out in Clause 4.1, or (ii) derogate from the Purchasers’ obligations towards the Seller under this agreement.

2.4 Benefit and risk

Subject to Completion, the Transaction will be effective as of the Effective Time and consequently, subject to the other provisions of this agreement, the benefit and risk of the Shares, together with the benefit and risk of the Target Group, will be for the account of the Purchasers as of the Effective Time.

3 / 52

2.5 Transaction structure

2.5.1 Within a reasonable period after the Signing Date and prior to the Completion Date, the Purchasers may propose to the Seller their desired structure for the Transaction, including the funding of the Target Group and the Disentanglement partly through the provision of a shareholder loan by the Seller to the Company or through the Company to any other Target Group Company pursuant to Paragraph 2.3(b) of Schedule 10 (Disentanglement Plan). To the extent that such proposal is reasonable and possible, the Seller and the Purchasers shall discuss in good faith further details of the proposal, including the amount of the shareholder loan and applicable interest rate (the principal amount and all accrued interest of the shareholder loan up to and including the Completion Date, the “Shareholder Loan”).

2.5.2 The Shareholder Loan shall be acquired by the Purchasers at Completion at its nominal value against payment of the Purchase Price. In this case, the purchase price for the Shares will be reduced accordingly so that the total consideration for the Shares and Shareholder Loan remains the Purchase Price. The Parties will in good faith discuss and negotiate any amendments to this agreement reasonably required in relation to the further implications of the use and assignment of the Shareholder Loan (it being understood that any net Tax disadvantage arising as a result of any interest payments on the Shareholder Loan as referred to in Clause 2.5.1 shall be for the account of the Purchasers).

3 CONSIDERATION

(b) the Working Capital Adjustment; minus

(c) the Net Debt Adjustment; plus

(d) the Late Filing Amounts (if any).

4 / 52

3.2 Payments at Completion

3.2.1 At Completion, the Purchasers shall pay an estimate of the Purchase Price (the “Estimated Purchase Price”) equal to the aggregate of the following amounts in accordance with Clause 6.2.1(c) and 6.2.1(d):

3.2.2 Both the Estimated Purchase Price and adjustments of the Estimated Purchase Price in accordance with Clause 7.5 are payable only in cash except as explicitly set out in this agreement. The Purchasers do not have any right of set-off against, deduction from or suspension of payment of the Estimated Purchase Price or the Purchase Price except as explicitly set out in this agreement.

The Seller’s Group and the Purchasers’ Group shall adopt such allocation for all purposes, including in respect of Tax.

7 / 52

reviewed and approved any Merger Clearance Filings or draft Merger Filings prior to such filing, whereby the Seller and its legal counsel shall respond to the draft or final Merger Clearance Filings as soon as reasonably possible and shall not otherwise unreasonably withhold or delay approval; and

(b) supply as promptly as practicable any additional information and documentation that may be requested by any Competition Authority in connection with the Merger Clearance Filings, provided that the Seller and its legal counsel have reviewed and approved such information or documentation prior to its submission, which approval may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

4.3.2 The Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to procure that the Purchasers swiftly receive all information and documentation available within the Seller’s Group in respect of the Business that is reasonably necessary to make or supplement any Merger Clearance Filings. However, the Purchasers are responsible for drafting and submitting all Merger Clearance Filings.

4.3.3 The Purchasers shall provide the Seller and its legal counsel with drafts of all written filings and other communication intended to be submitted to any Competition Authority in respect of any Merger Clearance Filings, provide the Seller and its legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to comment on such filings and communication, not submit such filings or communication without the prior written approval of the Seller, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and provide the Seller and its legal counsel with final copies of all such filings and communication. The Seller and its legal counsel may (to the extent permitted by Law and any Competition Authority) also, but are not obliged to, participate in all meetings, phone calls, correspondence and discussions with any Competition Authority in connection with a Merger Clearance Filing. Business secrets and other confidential information in respect of any Party or the Target Group Companies may be redacted by the Parties (and/or only provided to a Party’s legal counsel on a privileged basis) as long as the Seller and the Purchasers act reasonably in identifying such material for redaction. To the extent applicable merger control regimes provide for such possibility, the Seller and its legal counsel may, but are not obliged to, make confidentiality claims with respect to any of the approvals, consents or clearances as referred to in Clause 4.1(a), to the extent relating to the Seller’s Group, the Business or the market definitions used.

4.3.4 The Purchasers shall bear all filing fees and other similar costs incurred by them in relation to any Merger Clearance Filings, and shall also bear all costs, penalties and fines (including penalties and fines imposed on any member of the Seller’s Group) resulting from not making (timely or correct) Merger

8 / 52

Clearance Filings in any jurisdiction where a Merger Clearance Filing should have taken place, unless failure to make a (timely or correct) Merger Clearance Filing is the result of a breach of an obligation of the Seller set out in Clause 4.3.2 or Clause 4.3.3.

4.3.5 The Purchasers shall, and shall procure that their Affiliates will, refrain from carrying out any action (including making or agreeing to make any acquisition or investment) or omitting anything that could, directly or indirectly, cause delay, hinder, impede or prejudice satisfaction of the Completion Condition set out in Clause 4.1(a).

4.3.6 The Purchasers shall, and shall cause each member of the Purchasers’ Group to, take any action reasonably required in order to obtain as promptly as practicable clearance for the Transaction from the Competition Authorities pursuant to any Merger Clearance Filings, including by agreeing to perform or accept any disposal of assets or businesses of the Purchasers’ Group and to perform any behavioural remedies or conditions that may be necessary to obtain clearance from the Competition Authorities (the “Merger Clearance Remedies”), whereby the Purchasers shall be entitled to engage in discussions and negotiations with any and all relevant Competition on the nature and scope of such measures, to ensure that any Merger Clearance Remedies agreed upon are the narrowest possible measures with the least possible impact on the Business. For the avoidance of doubt, any such disposal of assets or businesses or behavioural remedies will have no impact on the Purchase Price and any costs related to any disposal of assets or businesses or to any such other remedies, or both, will be for the Purchasers’ sole account. The Seller will provide reasonable cooperation in respect of all Merger Clearance Remedies in relation to relevant access, disentanglement actions and other transitional service support actions.

4.4 Works Council

(ii) an advice regarding the Transaction with conditions reasonably acceptable to the Seller and, to the extent those conditions may have a material impact on (the business of) the Target Group or any Target Group Company after Completion, reasonably acceptable to the Purchasers; or

9 / 52

(iii) an unconditional and irrevocable waiver in writing of the Dutch Works Council’s right to render advice with respect to the Transaction,

and the Seller or the relevant member of the Seller’s Group having adopted a resolution in respect of the Transaction that is compliant with the Dutch Works Council’s advice; or

(b) to the extent none of the situations described under Clause 4.4.1(a) occur, upon the Seller or the relevant member of the Seller’s Group adopting a resolution in respect of the Transaction that deviates from the Dutch Works Council’s advice, and:

(i) the subsequent receipt by the Seller or the relevant member of the Seller’s Group from the Dutch Works Council of an unconditional and irrevocable waiver in writing of:

(A) the applicable waiting period in accordance with article 25(6) WOR; and

(B) its right to initiate legal proceedings pursuant to article 26 WOR; or

(ii) expiration of the applicable waiting period pursuant to article 25(6) WOR without the Dutch Works Council having initiated legal proceedings pursuant to article 26 WOR; or

(iii) if the Dutch Works Council has initiated legal proceedings pursuant to article 26 WOR to appeal against the resolution referred to in Clause 4.4.1(b), the Enterprise Chamber of the Amsterdam Court of Appeal (Ondernemingskamer Hof Amsterdam) has dismissed the appeal of the Dutch Works Council to the effect that no measures obstructing the Transaction are imposed and the dismissal of the Enterprise Chamber has immediate effect (uitvoerbaar bij voorraad).

4.4.2 The Completion Condition set out in Clause 4.1(c) will be deemed to have been complied with upon:

(a) the conclusion of a reconciliation agreement with the relevant German works council(s) (Betriebsrat/räte) or, in cases this condition (a) is not met,

4.4.6 The Seller and the Purchasers shall use their respective reasonable efforts to:

(b) promptly cooperate with and as promptly as practicable provide all necessary information and assistance reasonably required by the relevant works council; and
