2. Scope of Agreement and Roles of the Parties

2.1 This Agreement sets down the terms on which the Parties shall collaborate
in the design, development, production, marketing and sale of the Initial
Product and any Future Products that the Parties determine to make
subject to this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.3 below. The Parties
perceive that the immediate market demand for the Initial Product and the
Identified Future Products is for low cost, high speed (>10Gb/s)
fiberoptic data links tailored for Very Short Reach distances. The
primary target application is close to moderate proximity interconnection
between equipment racks for system manufacturers. Primary target
customers include, but are not limited to, {redact}.

2.2 During the term of this Agreement, EMCORE will direct its resources and
capabilities to the manufacture of high-quality VCSEL arrays, the design
of gigabit speed control circuits, photodetectors, optical links, and
electronics and shall provide for manufacture and QA/QC testing of the
Initial Product and any Future Products made subject to this Agreement by
the Parties pursuant to Section 5.3 hereof. Consistent with the Initial
Statement of Work, EMCORE shall be primarily responsible for the design,
development and manufacture of the Initial Product.

2.3 During the term of this Agreement, JDSU will provide for all marketing,
worldwide sales, application support and customer service and
distribution functions for the Initial Product and any Future Products
made subject to this Agreement by the Parties pursuant to Section 5.3
hereof and will provide technical support for the design and development
of such Initial Product and Future Products (including, to the extent
requested by EMCORE, assistance with the optical packaging, active
alignment, lens arrays and testing of such Products).

2.4 During the term of this Agreement and subject to Sections 2.5, 2.6 and
2.7 below, {redact} neither Party shall be prohibited from designing,
developing, marketing or selling product components (including, without
limitation, components used in Products) to third parties; provided that
such Party is not paid or compensated other than for the sale of said
components and for the design and development of said components. The
Parties acknowledge that either Party may acquire third parties (each an
"Acquired Company") that have expertise, intellectual property, and/or
carry on business relating to the Products (collectively the "Business").
{redact}

2.5 Notwithstanding Section 2.4 above, EMCORE shall have the right to
terminate its {redact} obligations under said Section 2.4 as to any
Product subject to this Agreement (but not this Agreement itself) for
which JDSU fails to sell the Minimum Volume of such Product as provided
in this Section 2.5 during any six month period (the first such six (6)
month period for each Product to commence three (3) months after the
Commercial Launch Date for that Product); provided that purchases for
resale pursuant to Section 8.2 shall be counted as sales. JDSU shall be
credited for sales towards the Minimum Volume in any six (6) month period
for the sum of that number of Product units purchased by JDSU for resale,
sold by JDSU and that number of Product units ordered for shipment by
JDSU during that six (6) month period in accordance with this Agreement
that EMCORE failed to timely ship during that six (6) month period. JDSU
shall be required either to purchase for resale or sell such Minimum
Volume amounts to maintain EMCORE's {redact} obligations under said
Section 2.4, but shall not be deemed in breach of any of its obligations
hereunder solely for failure to purchase for resale or sell such Minimum
Volume amounts.

2.6 Notwithstanding Section 2.4 hereof, JDSU shall have the right to
terminate its non-compete obligations pursuant to Section 2.4 above as to
any Product subject to this Agreement (but not this Agreement itself) as
follows:

(a) Should EMCORE fail to ship that quantity of units of a Product
subject to the Customer Commitment in accordance with Section 6.2
hereof that constitute {redact} percent ({redact}%) of the
aggregate units of such Product subject to the Customer Commitment
(other than a failure to ship caused by JDSU's failure to supply
or delay in supplying parts used in the Product) during any six
(6) month period (such six (6) month period to commence three (3)
months after the Commercial Launch Date for that Product) during
the term of this Agreement, JDSU shall have the right to terminate
the {redact} provisions as to such Product on not less than sixty
(60) days notice to EMCORE, which shall have the right to cure
such delinquency during that sixty (60) day period by the shipment
of all units in arrears and the timely shipment of all additional
units of such Product subject to the Customer Commitment that have
shipment dates within that thirty (30) day period; or

(b) Should EMCORE ship units of a Product to a third party customer or
JDSU that have warranty return rates in excess of {redact} percent
({redact}%) (other than as a result parts supplied by JDSU) during
any six (6) month period (such six (6) month period to commence
three (3) months after the Commercial Launch Date for that
Product), JDSU shall have the right to terminate the {redact}
provisions as to such Product on not less than sixty (60) days
notice to EMCORE, which shall have the right to cure such warranty
failure problem by: (i) creating a corrective action plan
regarding such warranty failure problem, which plan is reasonably
acceptable to JDSU, and (ii) shipping replacement Products to the
third party customer or JDSU, as applicable, during that sixty
(60) day period that have a warranty failure rate of less than
{redact} percent ({redact} %); provided, however, that EMCORE
shall not be deemed in breach of any of its obligations hereunder
solely for failure to meet its obligations under (a) or (b) above.

2.7 In the event that either EMCORE or JDSU shall exercise its rights under
Section 2.5 or 2.6 above to terminate its {redact} obligations under
Section 2.4 above as to a Product, the {redact} obligations of the other
Party shall also be terminated as to such Product. At any time that the
Parties are not subject to the {redact} obligations set forth in Section
2.4 above with respect to a particular Product, commissions shall be
payable to JDSU only with respect to units of that Product sold through
JDSU in accordance with this Agreement. {redact}, this Agreement shall
not serve to restrict either Party as to the development, manufacture or
sale of any other products that they may elect to pursue during the term
of this Agreement.

3. Collaboration and Initial Work of the Parties

3.1 The Parties shall collaborate in good faith under the Agreement and
shall, subject to the confidentiality restrictions imposed hereunder,
provide to the other Party such Company Information as the disclosing
Party determines in good faith is reasonably required for the performance
of its obligations under the Agreement.

3.2 EMCORE shall as soon as practicable after the Effective Date commence its
development work pursuant to the Initial Statement of Work. The Steering
Committee shall within sixty (60) days after the Effective Date jointly
prepare a Statement of Work for the first of the Identified Future
Products and on a thirty (30) day schedule for each additional Statement
of Work thereafter, complete preparation of Statements of Work for the
remaining three Identified Future Products within one hundred fifty (150)
days after the Effective Date. Each of the Identified Future Products
shall become subject to this Agreement upon the agreement by the Steering
Committee as to such Statements of Work and the other items set forth in
Section 5.3(a) hereof, and the failure of the Steering Committee to so
agree as to any Identified Future Product shall cause such product to not
become subject to this Agreement. As to the Initial Product and any
Identified Future Product that the Steering Committee agrees shall become
a Product for the purposes of this Agreement pursuant to said Section
5.3(a), each Party agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to complete
its work within the development schedules set forth in the Initial
Statement of Work and the Statements of Work for each such Identified
Future Product made subject to this Agreement. Within ninety (90) days of
the date hereof, the Parties shall prepare a product road map (the
"Product Road Map") containing a five (5) year forecast of fiberoptic
array transceivers contemplated for design and development as potential
Future Products to enable the Parties to extend their relationship beyond
the development and commercialization of the Initial Product and the
Identified Future Products. Such Product Road Map shall not be deemed to
bind either Party as to any Future Product until such time as the Parties
shall have agreed to make such Future Product subject to this Agreement
pursuant to Section 5.3(b). 3.3 During any period in which the Parties
shall be developing a Product pursuant to a Statement of Work undertaken
pursuant to this Agreement, each Party shall prepare and submit to the
Steering Committee its Work Report on a quarterly basis or on some other
timely basis as decided by the Steering Committee setting forth the work
performed by each Party in the previous quarter in furtherance of such
Statement of Work.

3.4 JDSU shall prepare (with input from EMCORE) a world-wide marketing plan
for each of the Products (the "Marketing Plan") on a quarterly basis,
which will be reviewed and approved by the Steering Committee.

3.5 In the event that a Party's development work under a Statement of Work
for a Product is unsuccessful, the Parties shall either modify such
Statement of Work (or Specifications) for that Product through the
Steering Committee, or, in the absence of an agreement by the Steering
Committee as to such modification, terminate development of such Product
and cause such Product to cease to be subject to this Agreement. For
purposes of the foregoing sentence, development work of a Party may be
deemed unsuccessful, as determined by the Steering Committee, if: (i) the
period to complete such development is delayed by {redact} % or more
based on the schedule for development set forth in the then effective
Statement of Work; or (ii) the development is not reasonably likely to
result in a Product that meets the then effective Specifications in all
material respects.

4. Management of the Program

4.1 The Parties shall as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, but in
any event within thirty (30) days, establish the Steering Committee to
supervise the performance of the Parties pursuant to this Agreement. The
Steering Committee shall have an equal number of members appointed by
each Party and shall be initially comprised of a total of four (4)
members, and the members of each Party, including any replacement
members, shall be subject to the approval of the other Party, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The total number of Steering
Committee members may be changed by the Steering Committee from time to
time as appropriate provided that in all cases it will be comprised of an
equal number of members from each Party. Each Party may substitute its
representatives from time to time (subject to approval of the other Party
as provided above) and the substitution is effective upon notice to the
other Party.

4.2 The Steering Committee shall meet as often as required to ensure the
effective operation of this Agreement but in no event less than quarterly
on such date and at such place as to be agreed upon between the Parties;
provided that members of the Steering Committee will be permitted to
attend such meetings by electronic or telephonic means. The meetings of
the Steering Committee may be held in person or in any other reasonable
manner, including, without limitation, by telephone, video conference or
e-mail. Each of the Steering Committee members shall have one vote and
other than decisions requiring unanimous approval all decisions must be
made by a majority vote. It is contemplated that additional
representatives of the Parties may attend and participate in the Steering
Committee meetings, however, such additional representatives will not be
entitled to participate in the voting process.

4.3 As a first order of business, the Steering Committee will draft
procedures which will govern the operation of the Steering Committee and
its decision making process and the specific criteria to be used in the
determinations set forth in Section 4.4.

4.4 The Steering Committee or its designees shall be responsible for:

4.4.13 reviewing and approving the Product Road Map.

If the Steering Committee cannot agree pursuant to Section 4.4.2 above as
to an adjustment to a Party's Estimated Development Cost for a Product
and such Party determines in good faith that its actual development cost
will exceed its then effective Estimated Development Cost by {redact}% or
more, such Party shall have the option, exercisable on thirty (30) days
written notice to the other Party, to terminate development of such
Product and cause such Product to no longer be subject to this Agreement.

4.5 Within a reasonable time so as to permit an expeditious commercial launch
of the Initial Product and those Identified Future Products that the
Steering Committee determines to make subject to this pursuant to Section
5.3(a), the Parties shall select the trademarks to be used in connection
with the Products (the "Product Trademarks"). The Product Trademarks
shall be approved by a unanimous vote of the Steering Committee.
Application to register the Product Trademarks so selected shall be made
by JDSU at its own expense and once registered the Product Trademark
shall be maintained by JDSU at its own expense and shall be owned solely
by JDSU during and after the term of this Agreement; provided, however,
that EMCORE shall be granted a fully paid-up, royalty free, perpetual,
exclusive (except as to JDSU) license to commercialize Products under the
Product Trademarks (which for purposes of such license shall not include
the name JDS Uniphase or any tradenames or trademarks that include or

4.8 In the event that the Steering Committee is unable to make a decision on
any particular matter due to a deadlock, it shall submit the matter for
joint resolution to the Chief Executive Officers of the Parties (or their
senior officer designees). In the event that the matter so submitted
remains unresolved after 30 days either Party may submit it for
resolution in accordance with Section 21. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the failure of the Steering Committee to agree as to any of the following
items shall not give rise to the dispute resolution provisions of this
Section 4.8 or Section 21 below:

(i) a determination pursuant to Section 5.3 hereof to make any product
(including, without limitation, any Identified Future Product)
subject to this Agreement, in which case such product shall not
become subject to this Agreement;

in which case such Party shall have the option provided in Section
4.4 hereof; and

(iv) JDSU's commission, the price for a Product (other than the Initial
Product) or Minimum Volumes for a Product, in which case Section
2.4 shall cease to apply as to such Product and Sections 8.1 or
8.2, as applicable, shall apply.

5. Future Products; Product Research and Development

5.1 Consistent with each Statement of Work, EMCORE shall use its reasonable
best efforts to provide, or shall procure from a third party, sufficient
engineering support and assistance to design and develop the Initial
Product (and any Future Products as approved by the Steering Committee
from time to time) to a stage where the Products meet the Specifications.
It is agreed that for purposes of this Section 5.1 and Section 5.2 below,
neither Party shall be deemed to provide any guarantee or assurance that
their development work as to any Product will be successful in achieving
the Specifications or any targeted manufacturing cost for the Product,
and each Party's obligations as to such development work shall be limited
to its reasonable best efforts through expenditure of its Estimated
Development Cost for such Product to complete such development work as
provided in the applicable Statement of Work.

5.2 Consistent with each Statement of Work, JDSU shall use its reasonable
best efforts to provide sufficient mechanical and optical engineering
support and assistance, including optical alignment of the arrays and
mechanical designs of interfaces, to support production of the Initial
Product (and any Future Products as approved by the Steering Committee
from time to time) in finished and packaged form in accordance with the
Specifications.

5.3 (a) The Parties acknowledge that, in marketing the Initial Product, the
Parties have determined that potential customers have an interest in
assuring that the Parties intend to develop the Identified Future
Products. The Steering Committee, shall within the times set forth in
Section 3.2 hereof, meet to jointly determine in good faith the following
with respect to each of the four Identified Future Products: (i)
Specifications, (ii) a Statement of Work, (iii) the initial Estimated
Development Cost and (iv) JDSU's commission and the initial pricing for
such Product as determined in accordance with Sections 8.1 and 8.2
hereof. Once the Steering Committee has agreed as to clauses (i)-(iii)
with respect to any given one of the four Identified Future Products, the
Parties shall, subject to the other terms of this Agreement, be obligated
to develop, manufacture and market such Product. Neither Party, through
its representatives on the Steering Committee or otherwise, shall be
deemed to have any obligation to make an Identified Future Product
subject to this Agreement if such Party determines in good faith that the
pricing over the estimated life of such Product cannot reasonably be
expected to provide such Party with at least a {redact} % Gross Margin as
provided in Section 8.2 hereof or, in JDSU's case, it determines in good
faith that it will not receive a reasonable commission as provided in
Section 8.1 hereof. In the absence of such agreement by the Steering
Committee as to any of the Identified Future Products, such Identified
Future Products shall not be deemed a Product for purposes of this
Agreement.

(b) During the term of this Agreement, the Parties shall, by mutual
written agreement through the Steering Committee, determine those Future
Products (other than the Identified Future Products) that shall be
subject to this Agreement. A Future Product (other than the Identified
Future Products) shall only be made subject to this Agreement upon the
written agreement of the Steering Committee as to each of the following:
(i) Specifications, (ii) a Statement of Work, and (iii) the initial
Estimated Development Cost and (iv) JDSU's commission and the initial
pricing for such Future Product as determined in accordance with Sections
8.1 and 8.2 hereof. The Parties acknowledge that, upon agreement by the
Steering Committee as to the Specifications, Statement of Work and
Estimated Development Cost for a Future Product (including, without
limitation, any of the Identified Future Products), a determination of
Minimum Volumes, commission and initial pricing for such Future Product
may not be then practicable and shall not be the then required to cause
such Future Product to become subject to this Agreement. Prior to
Commercial Launch Date for a Future Product, the Steering Committee shall
determine in good faith the Minimum Volumes for such Future Product (as
provided in Section 4.4.4 hereof), JDSU's commission and the initial
pricing for such Future Product (as provided in Sections 8.1 and 8.2
hereof). In the event that the Steering Committee cannot agree as to
Minimum Volumes, JDSU's commission or initial pricing, such Product shall
remain subject to this Agreement as provided in Sections 8.1 and 8.2
hereof but not be subject to Section 2.4 hereof.

5.4 Each Party shall share bear its own share of the research and development
costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with the design,
development and manufacture of the Products. The Parties shall {redact}
share, {redact}, those costs that are approved in writing by the Steering
Committee and that relate to certain capital expenditures including, but
not limited to, non-recurring engineering expenses, application specific
integrated circuits and capital equipment (collectively the "Shared
Research and Development Expenditures"). The Parties' respective
contributions in connection with the Shared Research and Development
Expenditures shall be taken into account by the Steering Committee when
setting JDSU's commission.

5.5 (a) {redact} Other than the Shared Research and Development Expenditures,
each Party shall bear its own expenses in connection with the research
and development relating to the Initial Product. To permit EMCORE to
recover the Development Cost Difference, if any, relating to a Future
Product (other than an EMCORE Developed Product) made subject to this
Agreement pursuant to Section 5.3 hereof, JDSU agrees to accept a reduced
commission until such time as EMCORE has recovered the Development Cost
Difference plus {redact}% from three (3) months prior to the Commercial
Launch Date of such Product.

(b) In the event that JDSU orders a Product from EMCORE for resale to
customers in accordance with Section 8.2, to permit EMCORE to recover the
Development Cost Difference for such Product (other than an EMCORE
Developed Product), if any, plus {redact}% from three (3) months prior to
the Commercial Launch Date, JDSU will remit to EMCORE quarterly, within
thirty (30) days following the end of the quarter, percent ({redact} %)
of the gross revenue (defined to exclude VAT and other applicable sales
tax) received by JDSU or its Affiliates in the preceding quarter through
sale of (i) any one of the {redact} Identified Future Products made
subject to this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.3(a) and (ii) Future
Products made subject to this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.3(b) (the
"R&D Off-Set"). For purposes of this Section 5.5, the actual development
cost of a Party for a Product for the purpose of calculating the
Development Cost Difference for such Product shall not be deemed to
exceed {redact} % of the Estimated Development Cost of that Party, as the
same may be adjusted from time to time by the Steering Committee. To
assist EMCORE in the development of Future Products, JDSU may advance the
estimated Development Cost Difference at any time during the performance
by EMCORE of its Statement of Work as to such Future Product as the
Parties may agree in writing.

5.6 Each Party shall ensure that all the work conducted by it under this
Agreement shall be carried out in accordance with generally accepted
standards of good practice at the time applicable to such work (including
but without limiting the generality of the foregoing all relevant
statutory safety standards from time to time in force) and each Party
will be responsible for the implementation of and compliance with all
applicable safety and other legislative requirements.

5.7 Each Party will procure that such facilities, materials and equipment as
are reasonably required for the proper execution of the Statement of Work
are made available by it. Should JDSU elect to contribute alignment
equipment to EMCORE for development and manufacturing of the Product,
JDSU will continue to own the equipment, and, for so long as EMCORE is in
possession of the equipment, EMCORE shall be responsible for maintaining,
repairing and insuring the equipment.

6. Forecasts and Orders and Shipping Procedures for Products

6.1 Each potential purchase order from a customer for which JDSU will receive
a commission shall be subject to EMCORE's prior approval regarding price,
cancellation penalties and shipping terms. All purchase orders accepted
by JDSU and EMCORE shall specify:

(a) Products (including EMCORE and JDSU part numbers, and Product
specification reference) and quantities being ordered;

(b) the applicable unit price for the Products;

(c) shipping instructions, including requested shipment dates;

(d) cancellation penalties; and

(e) distribution point of the Products and the invoicing location.

Terms and conditions on customer purchase orders and EMCORE's sales
acknowledgments, other than those agreed to between the customer and
EMCORE, shall be of no effect. Within ten (10) business days after
EMCORE's receipt of a purchase order, EMCORE will issue a written
acknowledgment, which will recite this Agreement reference, Product type
number, shipping instructions, the Product quantities being sold, the
Product's applicable unit price and the estimated shipment dates. In the
event of a conflict between this Agreement and EMCORE's written sales
acknowledgment or a purchase order, this Agreement shall prevail.

6.2 Six (6) months prior to the Commercial Launch Date, as estimated by the
Steering Committee, of the Initial Product and every three months
thereafter for so long as this Agreement shall remain in force, JDSU
shall provide EMCORE with a rolling {redact} month forecast (such period
commencing upon such Commercial Launch Date) of its projected sales for
the Products that are subject to Section 2.4 of this Agreement (each a
"Forecast"), which Forecast will be prepared so as to be consistent with
the Marketing Plan to the extent reasonably practicable. The Forecast
shall specify the number and type of Products which JDSU anticipates
selling and the expected delivery dates. JDSU agrees to include as part
of the Forecast {redact}. The quantities specified in the Forecast (i) in
respect of the first {redact} month period ("Agreed Shipment Period")
shall constitute a guaranteed purchase forecast (a "Guaranteed Purchase
Forecast") as to the type and quantity of Products, delivery dates
specified therein, and (ii) in respect of the remaining portion of the
{redact} period covered thereby, shall constitute a non-binding estimate
of projected sales and delivery dates. The remaining portion of each
Forecast for periods beyond the Agreed Shipment Period shall be deemed an
advisory forecast, which shall not be binding on either Party; provided,
however, that (i) the Guaranteed Purchase Forecast for an Agreed Shipment
Period shall not be more than {redact} percent ({redact} %) higher or
lower than the immediately preceding Forecast for that period without
EMCORE's prior written consent and (ii) the Forecast for any given Agreed
Shipment Period shall not be more than {redact} percent {redact}( %)
higher or lower than the initial Forecast for such period without
EMCORE's prior written consent. Each Forecast shall be accompanied by a
purchase order for the Product units subject to the Customer Commitment.

6.3 If JDSU reduces or cancels any portion of a Guaranteed Purchase Forecast
during the Agreed Shipment Period, JDSU shall be responsible for the
Cancellation Costs incurred as a result of such reduction or
cancellation; provided, however, that JDSU's liability with respect to
such costs shall be: {redact} percent ({redact} %) of the Cancellation
Costs if EMCORE receives written notification of cancellation from JDSU
{redact} in advance; {redact} percent ({redact} %) of the Cancellation
Costs if EMCORE receives written notification of cancellation from JDSU
{redact} in advance; {redact} percent ({redact}%) of the Cancellation
Costs if EMCORE receives written notification of cancellation from JDSU
{redact} in advance; and {redact} percent {redact} % of the Cancellation
Costs if EMCORE receives written notification of cancellation from JDSU
{redact} days in advance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, JDSU will not be
liable for Cancellation Costs relating to sales cancellations by JDSU (in
respect of sales directly to JDSU) or by a customer due to Products being
the subject of warranty returns as specified in Section 10 hereof (other
than returns resulting from the failure of {redact}, and JDSU shall be
entitled to return any such Products, which did not meet applicable
Specifications when shipped by EMCORE (other than returns resulting from
the failure of {redact}), for a full refund of amounts paid to EMCORE,
after any applicable commissions to JDSU, for such Products.

6.4 Should JDSU at any time during the term of this Agreement refer an order
for Products in excess of the amount of the applicable Customer
Commitment and which would also exceed EMCORE's (or its contract
manufacturer's) available manufacturing capacity for a given Product as
of the date of the Forecast, the Parties agree to cooperate with each
other and to use all reasonable efforts to fill the Product demand,
including without limitation, sharing the expenses of expanding EMCORE's
manufacturing capacity on such terms as the Parties may agree in writing.
The Parties' respective contributions in connection with such expansion
of EMCORE's manufacturing capacity shall be taken into account by the
Steering Committee when setting JDSU's commission.

6.5 Within {redact} days of execution of this Agreement, JDSU will order
evaluation quantities of the Initial Product in accordance with a
purchase order issued by JDSU in compliance with this Agreement
("Development Purchase Order"). The price per module in the Development
Purchase Order shall be determined by the Steering Committee. The
evaluation quantities of the first of the Initial Product shall be
delivered in accordance with the dates set forth in the Development
Purchase Order and in any event, not earlier than completion of the
Program.

6.6 On commission sales, pursuant to Section 8.1, EMCORE shall be responsible
for processing and invoicing all purchase orders received from customers.
EMCORE will invoice JDSU for the Development Purchase Order and the
Initial Purchase Order upon shipment. All payments owed by JDSU to EMCORE
under this Agreement, including, without limitation, cancellation
charges, agreed price adjustments, and payment for Products purchased,
are payable in U.S. dollars and will be due net {redact} days after the
date of the invoice.

6.7 Delivery of the Products shall be {redact} EMCORE's manufacturing
facility as per International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) Incoterms 2000
edition.

6.8 EMCORE shall be permitted to make engineering changes to the Products
during the term of this Agreement that affect such Product's performance
or reliability, or form, fit and function; provided, that any such
engineering change provides a cost, performance or other material benefit
or is reasonably required to minimize environmental, health or safety
risks or is mandated by law. EMCORE shall give JDSU notice regarding any
such engineering changes to the Product, and the Parties shall thereafter
use reasonable efforts to develop, within four (4) weeks, a mutually
acceptable qualification plan for Product containing such engineering
changes. JDSU shall not unreasonably reject a qualification plan proposed
by EMCORE. JDSU shall not be obligated to accept such engineering change
for Product supplied to JDSU if such Product has not been qualified as
described in the immediately preceding sentence or approved by JDSU
customers. Until the Product has been so qualified, EMCORE will continue
to manufacture Product ordered pursuant to this Agreement without
incorporating the engineering changes that are in the process of being
qualified. JDSU shall accept supply of all Product containing such
engineering change that have been qualified in accordance with the
foregoing qualification plan. In addition, EMCORE may issue mandatory
engineering changes such as those required to minimize environmental,
health or safety risks or as mandated by law provided that JDSU shall not
be obligated to purchase for its own account or sell any Products that
fail to conform materially with performance, reliability or form, fit and
function of the agreed specifications.

6.9 JDSU shall be permitted to request changes to the Specifications during
the term of this Agreement by giving EMCORE notice regarding any such
Performance Specification change. The parties shall thereafter use
reasonable efforts to develop, within four (4) weeks, a development
program to implement such Performance Specification change and a mutually
acceptable qualification plan for Product containing such Performance
Specification change. EMCORE shall not unreasonably reject a Performance
Specification plan proposed by JDSU provided such Specification change is
technically practicable and such Specification change will not adversely
affect the economic benefits and obligations of EMCORE pursuant to this
Agreement. Until the Specification change has been implemented and the
Product incorporating such revised Specification has been so qualified,
EMCORE will continue to manufacture and JDSU will continue either to
purchase for its own account or sell Product ordered pursuant to this
Agreement without incorporating any such JDSU requested Specification
change that is in the process of being qualified.

7. Sales and Marketing

7.1 Subject to oversight by the Steering Committee, JDSU shall be solely
responsible for all Product marketing and sales related activities
including, but not limited to, providing account management for each
account, preparing and coordinating all advertising and promotional
efforts, training and deploying qualified sales representatives,
maintaining a competent customer service and support facility for the
Products consistent with JDSU's other products and systems and
maintaining appropriate press and media relations. In addition, JDSU
shall provide EMCORE with application engineering support as reasonably
required.

7.2 EMCORE, at its sole cost, shall provide small quantities of sample
Products to JDSU from time to time to facilitate promotional activities,
subject to the review and approval of the Steering Committee.


8. Commissions; Pricing; Minimum Volumes.

8.1 EMCORE shall pay JDSU a commission on the sale of all Products that are
subject to Section 2.4 of this Agreement and for which EMCORE receives
sales revenue directly from the customer. JDSU's commission shall be set
by the Steering Committee on the basis of the average selling price for
such Product and shall be payable from the gross revenue received by
EMCORE from sales to third party customers. The Steering Committee shall
review the commission payable to JDSU for each Product at its quarterly
meetings; provided, however, that the Steering Committee shall only
adjust JDSU's commission if (i) the average selling price of a Product
has decreased; (ii) EMCORE has experienced a material ({redact}) increase
or decrease in its manufacturing costs, or (iii) JDSU has experienced a
material ({redact}) increase or decrease in its sales, marketing and
support costs. In the event that the Steering Committee cannot agree on
JDSU's commission for a particular Product at any time during the term of
the Agreement, the Parties agree that: (i) any {redact} obligations of
the Parties set forth in Section 2.4 above shall not apply until the
Parties agree on commission; and (ii) existing commissions shall continue
to apply for the remaining term of the Agreement (or until the Parties
agree on alternative commissions) with respect to all sales of such
Product made through JDSU (it being understood that no commissions shall
be payable to JDSU for sales not made through JDSU); provided that the
Party wishing to invoke this provision shall give the other Party
{redact} days prior written notice. The Parties agree that at least with
respect to the Initial Product, JDSU shall conduct all marketing and
sales on a commission basis.

8.2 In order to meet its Minimum Volume Requirement and for sales of Future
Products, JDSU may purchase Product directly from EMCORE for resale to
customers. The price of the Initial Product for sales to JDSU {redact}
shall be set by the Steering Committee. The wholesale and retail prices
for each of the Initial Product and any Future Products, when set by the
Steering Committee, shall remain fixed for a period of three (3) months
and shall be established, to the extent reasonably practicable, {redact}.
The Steering Committee shall review the pricing for each Product at its
quarterly meetings; provided, however, that the Steering Committee shall
only adjust the {redact} pricing {redact}. In the event that the Steering
Committee cannot agree on pricing at any time during the term of the
Agreement, the Parties agree that (other than with respect to the Initial
Product): (i) existing pricing shall continue to apply for the remaining
term of the Agreement (or until the Parties agree on alternative
pricing); and (ii) any {redact} obligations of the Parties set forth in
Section 2.4 above shall not apply until the Parties agree on pricing;
provided that the Party wishing to invoke this provision shall give the
other Party {redact} days prior written notice.

8.3 Any withholding or other taxes that a Party is required by law to
withhold or pay on behalf of the other Party shall be deducted from any
payments owed to such Party provided, however, that in regard to any tax
so deducted the remitting Party shall furnish the other Party with proper
evidence of the taxes paid on its behalf and will furnish the other Party
with appropriate documents to secure application of the most favorable
rate of withholding tax under applicable law.

8.4 Each Party shall initially apply its internal accounting principles and
methodology in determining its Gross Margins, Gross Revenues and product
costs and expenses relating to the Shared Research and Development
Expenditures. These internal accounting principles and methodology must
be consistent with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,
consistently applied ("GAAP") and shall be reviewed by the Steering
Committee prior to the Commercial Launch Date of the Initial Product. If
the Steering Committee disagrees as to the accounting principles or
methodology adopted by a Party, it shall request such Party to make
necessary changes or adjustments. If the Party objects to such changes or
adjustments, it may request that an independent accounting firm be
chosen, at its own expense, by both Parties to make the final decision.
The accounting principles and methodology of any Party approved by the
Steering Committee or decided by an independent accounting firm, as the
case may be, shall be consistently applied during the term of this
Agreement. The internal accounts (the "Internal Accounts") prepared by
each Party applying its internal accounting principles and methodology,
as reviewed by the Steering Committee, must be submitted to the Steering
Committee for review on a quarterly basis after the Commercial Launch
Date as to each Product. If a Party objects to any changes to its
Internal Accounts proposed by the Steering Committee the matter shall be
resolved pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions of Section 4.8 and
Section 21.

8.5 Each Party shall maintain complete and accurate books and records in
connection with its research and development expenditures and its costs
and expenses in connection with manufacture and sale of the Product,
including relating to the design, development, promotion, marketing,
distribution and selling of the Products. Upon a reasonable written
request of one Party, the other Party shall permit the first Party to
inspect or to use an independent accounting firm to audit, in each case
at the first Party's own expense, the books and records of the second
Party to evaluate whether its reporting {redact} are accurate. Should a
discrepancy be found that resulted in an underpayment to the inspecting
Party of greater than {redact} percent ({redact} %), the entire cost of
the audit will be paid by the audited Party in addition to any amounts
owed by the audited Party but which were unpaid.

9. Intellectual Property

9.1 All Background shall remain the absolute unencumbered property of the
owner of such rights at the Effective Date. No Party will make any
representation or do any act which may be taken to indicate that it has
any right title or interest in or to the ownership or use of any of the
Background of the other Party except under the terms of this Agreement,
and each Party acknowledges that nothing contained in this Agreement
shall give it any right, title or interest in or to the Background of the
other Party save as granted hereby.

9.2 All Foreground generated by a Party (or by a Party and a third party in
the course of a research project funded by such Party) shall remain the
absolute unencumbered property of such Party.

9.3 Each Party hereby grants to the other Party a non-exclusive, royalty free
license to use that Party's Background and Foreground for the purposes of
performing its share of work under any Program. JDSU hereby grants EMCORE
a non-exclusive, royalty free license to use its Background and
Foreground for the purpose of manufacturing and having manufactured the
Products in the Territory. EMCORE hereby grants JDSU a non-exclusive,
royalty free license to use its Background and Foreground for the purpose
of marketing and selling Products in the Territory (but not to import,
manufacture or have manufactured for sale in the Territory). Each Party
agrees that, subject to Section 9.4, it will not use the Background
and/or Foreground of the other Party for any purpose other than the
performance of its obligations hereunder.

9.4 Upon termination of this Agreement or if at any time during the term of
this Agreement the collaboration between the Parties becomes {redact} by
virtue of Sections 2.5, 2.6 or 2.7 hereof and subject to the payment of
royalties as provided in Section 9.5 below, each Party shall be entitled
to a royalty bearing, non-transferable right and license under the
Intellectual Property (including Background and Foreground) and Company
Information (including all marketing information and customer lists) of
the other Party to manufacture, have manufactured, promote, market,
distribute and sell Products throughout the world; provided that, where
the Agreement is terminated by reason of breach of one Party then that
Party shall not be entitled to any license as aforesaid; and provided
further that JDSU shall not be entitled to any right or license under any
Intellectual Property of EMCORE relating to VCSEL or MOCVD technology and
shall not be entitled to a license to manufacture or have manufactured an
EMCORE Developed Product. As a condition to the exercise of any right of
a Party hereunder to have a third party manufacture any portion of a
Product, such third party shall be bound by a written confidentiality
agreement as to any confidential information of the licensing party that
is no less restrictive in any material respect than the restrictions
contained in Section 11 hereof.

9.5 Royalties payable under the licenses granted in accordance with Section
9.4 shall be based on net sales, shall be applied on a Product-by-Product
basis and shall be set at a fair market value rate. No royalty shall be
payable under any such license until the licensee under the license has
first recouped through profits obtained by sales of licensed Products,
its research and development costs incurred under this Agreement.

9.6 The Parties shall, when appropriate, execute a formal license or licenses
for the purpose of registering the licenses granted pursuant to Sections
9.3 or 9.4 above in such form as may be necessary to give effect to this
Agreement in any part of the Territory and to conform with any existing
laws. Such license or licenses shall be subject to all the terms and
conditions of this Agreement.

9.7 Where Foreground is generated jointly by one or more employees of each
Party or by employees of a third party on their behalf pursuant to a
research project approved by the Steering Committee and funded as part of
the Shared Research and Development Expenditures, it shall vest in and be
the property of EMCORE and JDSU jointly unless in any particular case the
Parties shall otherwise agree. Subject to the rights of the Parties in
any Background, each Party shall have the irrevocable right, subject to
the restrictions contained in Section 2.4, to use such joint Foreground
independently of the other and without accounting and, to the extent
necessary for such use, is hereby granted a royalty free license under
all jointly held Intellectual Property.

9.8 EMCORE and JDSU shall decide through the mechanism of the Steering
Committee which of the Parties shall be responsible for filing and
prosecuting of any joint patent applications in connection with any
jointly owned Foreground and of maintaining any patents granted thereon
in all countries and shall, unless otherwise agreed, share equally all
costs involved.

9.9 In the event that either Party becomes aware of an infringement of any of
the Intellectual Property licensed under this Section 9 or of any action
by a third person for a declaration that any of the Intellectual Property
is invalid or unenforceable or of any infringement of a Party's right to
sell hereunder, it shall promptly notify the other Party in writing. The
Parties shall cooperate in determining the appropriate action to be taken
against the third party. The Parties shall cooperate with each other and
provide all necessary and reasonable assistance in any of such actions.
EMCORE shall select the outside counsel to represent the Parties in an
infringement or other action. Each Party may also retain its own outside
counsel at its own expense. If any infringement or other appropriate
action is jointly instituted pursuant to this Section, the Parties each
shall bear its own-out-pocket expenses and share litigation costs and
legal fees equally. In the event of such a joint action, the Parties will
share equally in any recovery of damages or amount paid in settlement. In
the event that either Party institutes action independently pursuant to
this Section, such Party shall be entitled to retain all recoveries or
settlements in connection therewith.

9.10 Upon termination of this Agreement, other than by reason of breach, or if
at any time during the term of this Agreement the collaboration between
the Parties becomes {redact} by virtue of Sections 2.5, 2.6 or 2.7
hereof, each Party agrees, to the extent it has available capacity, to
supply to the other Party any Products (other than an EMCORE Developed
Product) and any components or parts manufactured by that Party that are
used in the manufacture of Products (other than an EMCORE Developed
Product), and, for a {redact} period commencing on the date of such
termination or {redact}, such supply shall be on a {redact} basis as
provided in this Section 9.10 for so long as that Party continues to
manufacture such Product or components or parts in commercial quantities
for resale to third parties. {redact} terms shall be based only on actual
sales by a Party to a third party of the same or equivalent components or
parts and shall not be applied retroactively to any components or parts
previously shipped by a Party to another Party. A Party purchasing any
component or part on {redact} terms pursuant to this Section 9.11 shall
be required to purchase equivalent quantities and accept all material
commercial terms as such third party {redact}.

10. Warranties and Indemnities

10.1 JDSU shall provide customer service and Product support services,
including the handling of warranty claims for the Products. JDSU shall
have the sole right to determine the level of customer service and
