STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT, dated as of December 10, 2012 (the “Agreement”), by and among the stockholders identified on Schedule A (collectively, the “Sellers”), JM Representatives, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as the Seller Representative (the “Seller Representative”), and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, Sellers own (i) 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock (the “PPC Shares”) of PPC Broadband, Inc., a Delaware corporation d/b/a PPC (“PPC”) and (ii) 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock (the “SKT Shares”, and together with the PPC Shares, the “Shares”) of SKT International Holdings B.V., a company organized under the laws of The Netherlands (“SKT”, and together with PPC, the “Companies” and each sometimes referred to individually as a “Company”);

WHEREAS, the Companies own, directly and indirectly, all of the equity interest in the entities set forth on Schedule 1.0 hereto (such entities collectively with the Companies, the “Acquired Companies” and each an “Acquired Company”);

WHEREAS, the Acquired Companies are engaged in the manufacturing, assembly, and sale of connectors for the broadband industry (the “Business”);

WHEREAS, Sellers desire to sell the PPC Shares to Buyer, and Buyer desires to purchase the PPC Shares from Sellers, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, Sellers desire to sell the SKT Shares to Buyer, and Buyer desires to purchase the SKT Shares from Sellers, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and wishing to be legally bound thereby, the parties, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE TRANSACTION

Section 1.1 Purchase and Sale of Shares. In accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, at the Closing, the Sellers owning the PPC Shares shall sell, assign, transfer and deliver to Buyer, and Buyer shall purchase and acquire from such Sellers, the PPC Shares, free and clear of all Encumbrances; and the Sellers owning the SKT Shares shall sell, assign, transfer and deliver to Buyer, and Buyer shall purchase and acquire from such Sellers, the SKT Shares, free and clear of all Encumbrances.

Section 1.2 Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Shares shall be equal to Five Hundred Fifteen Million Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($515,700,000) (the “Initial Purchase Price”). At the Closing, Buyer shall (i) pay to Sellers by wire transfer of immediately available funds an amount (the “Closing Payment”) equal to the (A) Initial Purchase Price (as adjusted

pursuant to Section 1.3(a) below) less (B) the Indemnification Escrow Amount less (C) the Working Capital Escrow Amount less (D) $500,000 (the “Seller Representative Reserve Amount”) less (E) the amount of Closing Date Indebtedness (the “Closing Debt Amount”) less (F) the Employee Transaction Bonus Amount less (G) the Seller Transaction Expenses; (ii) pay to the Escrow Agent an amount equal to Fifty-One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($51,500,000) (the “Indemnification Escrow Amount”) to be held by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Escrow Agreement; (iii) pay to the Escrow Agent an amount equal to Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) (the “Working Capital Escrow Amount”) to be held by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Escrow Agreement; (iv) pay to PPC the Employee Transaction Bonus Amount to be paid by PPC to certain employees in accordance with the Flow of Funds Memorandum; (v) pay to the Seller Representative to an account designated by the Seller Representative (the “Seller Representative Reserve Account”) the Seller Representative Reserve Amount which shall be used by the Seller Representative as necessary to make payments and reimbursements contemplated by Section 6.1(c); (vi) pay to the lenders of the Closing Date Indebtedness the Closing Debt Amount, if any, and (vii) pay to the Sellers’ advisors, the Seller Transaction Expenses. The Initial Purchase Price is subject to adjustment as provided in Section 1.3 and Section 5.9 (the Initial Purchase Price as so adjusted being referred to herein as the “Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price shall be allocated among and paid to Sellers in proportion to their respective holdings of the Shares as set forth in Schedule A.

Section 1.3 Purchase Price Adjustments.

(a) For the sake of convenience, the parties have agreed to use an estimated Closing Net Working Capital amount of Forty-Six Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars (US $46,500,000) (the “Estimated Closing Net Working Capital”). Because the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital is more than Thirty Nine Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars (US $39,500,000) (the “Target Net Working Capital”), the Initial Purchase Price will be increased at the Closing by Seven Million Dollars (US $7,000,000).

(b) As used herein, the following terms shall have the definitions set forth below:

(i) The term “Net Working Capital” shall mean the positive or negative difference between the combined Current Assets of the Acquired Companies (as defined in Schedule 1.3 hereto) minus the combined Current Liabilities of the Acquired Companies (as defined in Schedule 1.3 hereto).

(ii) The term “Closing Net Working Capital” shall mean the Net Working Capital of the Acquired Companies as of the close of business Eastern Time on the Closing Date.

(c) Within sixty (60) calendar days of the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Seller Representative unaudited combined balance sheets of the Acquired Companies as of the close of business Eastern Time on the Closing Date (the “Closing Balance Sheet”) and shall include a preliminary unaudited statement of the Closing Net Working Capital (the “Closing Net Working Capital Statement”). The Closing Balance Sheet shall (x) fairly present the combined Current Assets and Current Liabilities of the Acquired Companies of the close of business Eastern Time on the Closing Date in accordance with GAAP applied in a manner consistent with the preparation of the Financial Statements (as hereinafter defined) and Schedule 1.3. The Closing Net Working Capital shall be calculated in the manner described on Schedule 1.3 hereto based upon amounts reflected in the Closing Balance Sheet.

(d) The Closing Balance Sheet and calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital shall become final and binding upon the parties on the earlier of (i) the date the Seller Representative notifies Buyer of its acceptance of the Closing Balance Sheet and calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital or (ii) the thirtieth (30th) calendar day following Seller Representative’s receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet, unless the Seller Representative notifies Buyer in writing prior to such date of its disagreement with any aspect of the Closing Balance Sheet or the calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital (a “Notice of Disagreement”). If delivered, the Notice of Disagreement shall specify in reasonable detail the amount, nature and basis of any such disagreement, including the Seller Representative’s own proposed adjustments to Buyer’s calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital. If a Notice of Disagreement is received by Buyer within thirty (30) calendar days of the Seller Representative’s receipt of the Closing Net Working Capital Statement, then the Closing Net Working Capital amount shall become final and binding only upon the earlier of (A) the date that Buyer and the Seller Representatives resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement, or (B) the date any disputed matters are finally resolved through accounting arbitration pursuant to Section 1.3(e); provided that in no event shall Closing Net Working Capital be less than Buyer’s calculation of Closing Net Working Capital set forth in the Closing Net Working Capital Statement or more than the Seller Representative’s calculation of Closing Net Working Capital set forth on a Notice of Disagreement.

(e) If a Notice of Disagreement shall be duly and timely delivered pursuant to Section 1.3(d), Buyer and the Seller Representative shall, during the thirty (30) days following such delivery, negotiate in good faith in respect of the disputed items. If the Seller Representative and Buyer are unable to resolve any such dispute during such period, the dispute shall be referred to ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP or any other independent accounting firm of national standing agreed upon by the Seller Representative and Buyer (the “Independent Firm”) for definitive resolution. The Independent Firm shall set forth the procedures for the presentation of evidence (unless Buyer and Seller Representative otherwise agree on the procedures for the presentation of evidence) and shall make its determination and calculation with respect to such dispute in a written report to be delivered to Buyer and Seller Representative within thirty (30) calendar days of its appointment or as soon as commercially practicable. In making such calculation, the Independent Firm shall consider only those items or amounts in the Closing Balance Sheet or Buyer’s calculation of Closing Net Working Capital as to which Seller Representative have disagreed and shall not conduct an independent review. The Independent Firm shall act as an arbitrator, and, subject to the proviso at the end of Section 1.3(d), its determination shall be final and conclusive as between the parties, absent fraud or manifest error. All fees and expenses of the Independent Firm shall be borne (i) by Buyer if the difference between the Closing Net Working Capital (as determined by the Independent Firm) and Buyer’s calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital set forth in the Closing Net Working Capital Statement is greater than the difference between the Closing Net Working Capital (as determined by the Independent Firm) and the Seller Representative’s calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital set forth in the Notice of Disagreement, (ii) by the Seller Representative if the first such difference is less than the second such difference, and (iii) if such differences are equal, then equally by Buyer on the one hand, and the Seller Representative on the other hand.

(f) Within ten (10) Business Days after the Closing Net Working Capital amount becomes final and binding pursuant to Section 1.3(d) or Section 1.3(e), if the Closing Net Working Capital is less than the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital, then Seller Representative and Buyer shall instruct the Escrow Agent to pay the amount of such difference to Buyer from the Working Capital Escrow Amount in immediately available funds to an account designated by Buyer and to instruct the Escrow Agent to pay the remainder of the Working Capital Escrow Amount in immediately available funds to an account designated by the Seller Representative, provided, however, that, if the difference between the Closing Net Working Capital and the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital is greater than the Working Capital Escrow Amount, then Seller Representative and Buyer shall instruct the Escrow Agent to pay the entire Working Capital Escrow Amount in immediately available funds to an account designated by Buyer and Sellers shall be liable to Buyer for the remainder of such shortfall. If the Closing Net Working Capital is more than the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital, then Buyer shall pay the amount of such difference to Sellers in immediately available funds to the accounts designated by Sellers and instruct the Escrow Agent to pay the entire Working Capital Escrow Amount in immediately available funds to any account designated by the Seller Representative. Any payment made pursuant to Section 1.3(f) shall bear interest at a rate equal to five percent (5%) per annum computed on the basis of a 360 day year and based on the actual number of days elapsed since the Closing Date through the date of payment required by this Section 1.3(f).

Section 1.4 Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”), including the payment of the Closing Payment and the transfer and sale of the Shares to Buyer, shall take place on the date hereof at the offices of ▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (the “Closing Date”). The Closing shall be deemed to be effective as of the close of business Eastern Time on the Closing Date.

The parties acknowledge that such allocation of the Purchase Price has been negotiated by them at “arms-length” and that Buyer and Sellers shall be bound by such allocation for all Tax purposes, shall not take any position (whether on audits, Tax Returns, before any Governmental Entity or any quasi-governmental or private body having jurisdiction over the assessment, determination, collection or imposition of any Tax (“Taxing Authority”) or otherwise) that is inconsistent with such allocation, shall utilize such allocation in any and all Tax filings made by such parties.

ARTICLE II

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLERS

Except as set forth in the disclosure schedules prepared by Sellers and delivered to Buyer simultaneously with the execution hereof, each Seller, jointly and severally, represents and warrants to Buyer that all of the statements contained in this Article II are true and correct as of the date hereof or, if made as of a specified date, as of such date.

Section 2.1 Organization and Good Standing.

(a) Each of the Acquired Companies are duly formed, validly existing and (where applicable) in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of their incorporation or formation. Each Acquired Company has all requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its respective properties, to carry on its business as it is now being conducted, to own or use its assets and to perform all of its obligations under its contracts in all material respects.

Section 5.6 Indemnification Procedures. If there occurs an event or occurrence (including any claim asserted or action or proceeding commenced by a third party) which any party (an “Indemnified Party”) asserts constitutes an indemnifiable event pursuant to Sections 5.2 or 5.3, the Indemnified Party shall provide written notice to the party obligated to provide indemnification hereunder (an “Indemnifying Party”), setting forth the nature of the claim and the basis for indemnification hereunder. The Indemnified Party shall give such written notice to the Indemnifying Party, with respect to third party claims, promptly after it becomes aware of the existence of any such event or occurrence and, with respect to all claims that are not third party claims, promptly after determining in good faith that the Indemnified Party intends to assert a claim for indemnification hereunder. Such notice shall be a condition precedent to any liability of the Indemnifying Party hereunder; provided, however, that the failure to provide prompt notice as provided herein will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party hereunder. If a party receives written notice under this Article V and does not agree that it is required to indemnify (and, with respect to a third party claim, action or proceeding to defend) the party giving such notice, it shall give notice of the same (an “Objection Notice”) within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of notice of the claim. In the event that the parties cannot agree whether such claim is indemnified hereunder within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of the Objection Notice, then the parties shall be free to pursue other available legal remedies to resolve such dispute. If no Objection Notice is received within such thirty (30) calendar day period, the party receiving notice of a claim shall be deemed to have acknowledged liability for indemnity for the relevant claim. In case any third-party action shall be brought against any Indemnified Party and it shall notify the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof and its claim for indemnification with respect thereto pursuant to Section 5.2 or Section 5.3, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate therein at its sole cost and expense. The Indemnifying Party, to the extent that it wishes, may assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by it and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of such election so to assume the defense thereof, provided that the Indemnifying Party has not denied its responsibility to

indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder in the entirety with respect to such matter or in any way reserved any right to contest its duty to defend and indemnify the Indemnified Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party undertakes the defense of the Indemnified Party without a denial of indemnity or defense or a reservation of rights with respect to indemnity or defense, the Indemnified Party may participate in such action and employ separate counsel of its choice with the cost of the Indemnified Party’s separate counsel borne by the Indemnified Party; provided, that if such Objection Notice relates to a claim for an injunction against any business or operations of the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to retain control of the defense of such claim with counsel selected by it at the expense of the Indemnifying Party (and the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled only to participate in the defense of such claim, at its sole cost and expense through counsel of its own choice). The Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate fully with (and to provide all relevant, non-privileged documents and records and make all relevant personnel available to) the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the defense of any such asserted claim at the cost of the Indemnifying Party. No Indemnified Party shall consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, unless such judgment or settlement includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to each Indemnifying Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim. No Indemnifying Party shall be liable under this Article V for any settlement, compromise or discharge of any claim effected without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. No Indemnifying Party shall consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement without the prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, of the Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party agrees in writing to pay any amounts payable pursuant to such judgment or settlement and such third-party claim, (ii) such judgment or settlement includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to each Indemnified Party of an express, complete and unconditional release from all liability in respect to such claim; and (iii) the entry of such judgment or settlement does not impose non-monetary obligations on the Indemnified Party or otherwise prejudice the business or property interests of the Indemnified Party.

Section 5.7 Adjustments for Insurance and Taxes. Each Loss which an Indemnifying Party is required to pay pursuant to this Article V shall (i) be reduced by the amount of any insurance proceeds actually received by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and (ii) be reduced or increased, as applicable, to take account of any reduction of net Taxes or increase in net Taxes actually realized by the Indemnified Party as a direct result of such Loss (determined after properly taking into account the actual and reasonably anticipated effect on (including increase of) Taxes (including future Taxes) of the Indemnified Party or any Affiliate thereof as a result of any indemnification amount paid or payable for such Loss under this Article V and any reasonable additional cost incurred to realize such net reduction in Taxes).

Section 5.8 Subrogation. Upon making any payment to an Indemnified Party for any indemnification claim pursuant to this Article V, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to any rights which the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates may have against any other Persons with respect to the subject matter underlying such indemnification claim, and the Indemnified Party shall take such actions as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably require to perfect such subrogation or to pursue such rights against such other Persons as the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates may have.

Section 5.9 Treatment of Indemnity Claims. Any indemnification payment by Sellers pursuant to this Article V shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price hereunder.

Section 5.10 Materiality. In order to determine the amount of any Loss in connection with a claim for Indemnification for breach of representation and warranty pursuant to Sections 5.2(a)(i) or 5.3(a)(i), all qualifications or exceptions included in such representations or warranties relating to Material Adverse Effect, materiality or similar qualifications shall be disregarded.
