Purchase Agreement

On October 27, 2017, MACOM Technology Solutions Holdings, Inc. (“MACOM”) and MACOM Connectivity Solutions, LLC (“MACOM Connectivity”), a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of MACOM, entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Project Denver Holdings LLC (“Buyer”), to which MACOM and MACOM Connectivity agreed to the sale and transfer to Buyer of MACOM’s ARM-based compute processor business and non-communications workload processor business (the “Compute Business”). MACOM had previously acquired the Compute Business in its acquisition of Applied Micro Circuits Corporation on January 26, 2017 and has accounted for the Compute Business as discontinued operations in its financial statements since the date of acquisition.

In consideration for the transfer and sale of the Compute Business, MACOM Connectivity received an equity interest in Buyer valued at approximately $36.5million and representing less than 20% of Buyer’s total outstanding equity. Under the Purchase Agreement, MACOM agreed to guarantee the financial obligations of MACOM Connectivity thereunder and to cause the delivery of the Compute Business assets transferable to Buyer according to its terms.

The transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement closed contemporaneously with its signing, with the exception of the transfer of certain assets and entities related to the Compute Business that are held outside of the United States, which will be transferred upon receipt of applicable foreign approvals.
