CFIUS has also issued a notice on 2 February 2010 (Eastern Standard Time) to TTM confirming
that CFIUS has concluded its review of the PCB Sale and concluded that there are no
unresolved national security concerns in respect of the PCB Sale sufficient to warrant
further investigation.
Issuance of the notice by CFIUS to the effect that review or investigation of the PCB Sale
has concluded, and that a determination has been made that there are no issues of national
security of the United States sufficient to warrant further investigation, is one of the
conditions for completion of the PCB Sale.

conditions set out in the Announcement being fulfilled (or, if applicable, waived) and may or
may not be completed or effected, as the case may be. Shareholders and potential investors
