AMOUNT AND TERMS OF THE LOANS

SECTION 2.01. Revolving Credit. The Bank shall, from time to time, prior to the Maturity Date, make loans (the “Revolving Credit”) to the Borrower under and pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Note of even date (as amended, modified, substituted or replaced, from time to time, the “Note”), as it may be extended or renewed, substituted or replaced, in an aggregate amount not to exceed Thirty Million ($30,000,000.00) Dollars (the “Revolving Credit Limit”). The loans made pursuant to this section shall be known as the “Loan” or “Loans”, as the context requires or permits.

SECTION 2.02. Interest. Interest will be payable monthly in accordance with the Note. Interest shall be calculated on a 360 day year for the actual days elapsed.

Any principal amount not paid when due (at maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise) shall bear interest thereafter until paid at a rate equal to four (4%) percentage points greater than the rate which would otherwise be applicable (the “Default Rate”).

SECTION 2.03. Prepayment. The Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loans to the extent provided in the Note. Prior to an Event of Default, all such prepayment amounts made shall be applied first to fees and expenses then due hereunder, then to interest on the unpaid principal balance accrued to the date of prepayment and last to the principal balance then due hereunder. After an Event of Default, the Bank may apply such payments in such order as it deems appropriate.

SECTION 2.04. Automatic Payment; Due Date for Payments. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Bank to automatically deduct from any of the Borrower’s primary operating accounts maintained with the Bank any amount due under this Credit Agreement (“Automatic Payments”). If the funds in said account are insufficient to advance funds to cover any payment, Bank shall not be obligated to advance funds to cover the payment. At any time and for any reason, Borrower or Bank may voluntarily terminate such Automatic Payments. Whenever any payment to be made under this Credit Agreement shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the first Business Day thereafter and any such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of the payment of accrued interest.

SECTION 2.05. Late Charge Fee. If a regularly scheduled payment is fifteen (15) days or more late, Borrower will be charged 5.0% of the unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled payment or $25.00, whichever is greater.

SECTION 2.06. Notices.

(a) Advances. With regard to Prime Rate Loans, when the Borrower desires to borrow hereunder, it shall give the Bank one (1) Business Day’s written notice specifying the date of the proposed borrowing and the amount to be borrowed. With regard to LIBOR Rate Loans, by delivering a borrowing request to the Bank on or before 10:00 a.m., Boston time, on a Business Day, the Borrower may from time to time irrevocably request, on not less than two (2) nor more than five (5) Business Days’ notice, that a LIBOR Rate Loan be made in a minimum amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) and integral multiples of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00), with an Interest Period of one (1) month. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each LIBOR Rate Loan shall be made available to the Borrower no later than 11:00 a.m. Boston time on the first day of the applicable Interest Period by deposit to the account of the Borrower as shall have been specified in the Borrower’s borrowing request. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, there shall be no more than three (3) LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any time.

(b) Repayment, Continuation and Conversion of LIBOR Rate Loans. LIBOR Rate Loans shall mature and become payable in full on the last day of the Interest Period relating to such LIBOR Rate Loan. Upon maturity, a LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued for an additional Interest Period or may be converted to a Prime Rate Loan. By delivering a continuation/conversion notice to the Bank on or before 10:00 a.m., Boston time, on a Business Day, the Borrower may from time to time irrevocably elect, on not less than two (2) nor more than five (5) Business Days’ notice, that all, or any portion in an aggregate minimum amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) and integral multiples of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00), of any LIBOR Rate Loan be continued on the last day of an Interest Period as LIBOR Rate Loan with a similar Interest Period, provided, however, that no portion of the outstanding principal amount of any LIBOR Rate Loans may be converted to, or continued as, LIBOR Rate Loans when any (1) Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and no portion of the outstanding principal amount of any LIBOR Rate Loans may be converted to, LIBOR Rate Loans of a different duration if such LIBOR Rate Loans relate to any Hedging Obligations. In the absence of delivery of a continuation/conversion notice with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan at least two (2) Business Days before the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, such LIBOR Rate Loan shall, on such last day, automatically convert to a Prime Rate Loan. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, there shall be no more than three (3) LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any time.

SECTION 2.07. Bank’s Reports. After the end of each month, Bank may render to Borrower a statement regarding Borrower’s loan account under the Revolving Credit with Bank hereunder. Each statement and the information contained therein shall be considered correct and to have been accepted by Borrower and, in the absence of manifest error, shall be conclusively binding upon Borrower in respect of all charges, debits and credits of whatsoever nature contained therein under or pursuant to this Agreement, and the closing balance shown therein, unless Borrower notifies Bank in writing of any discrepancy within twenty (20) days from the mailing by Bank to Borrower of any such monthly statement.

SECTION 2.08. Letters of Credit. At the request of the Borrower, and upon the execution of letter of credit documentation satisfactory to Bank, Bank, within the limits of the Revolving Credit Limit, shall issue letters of credit and/or acceptances from time to time for the account of the Borrower (hereinafter collectively “Letter(s) of Credit”). The Letters of Credit shall be on terms mutually acceptable to Bank and the Borrower. A loan in an amount equal to any amount paid by Bank under a Letter of Credit shall be deemed made to Borrower, without request therefor, immediately upon any

payment by Bank on such Letter of Credit. In connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit, Borrower shall pay to Bank a percentage of the face amount of any Letter of Credit according to the fee schedule then in effect at Bank, plus transaction fees at Bank’s customary rates, and all other normal and customary fees charged by Bank. Borrower hereby authorizes and directs Bank, in Bank’s sole discretion (provided, however, Bank shall have no obligation to do so) to pay all such fees and costs as the same become due and payable and to treat the same as a loan to Borrower, which shall be added to Borrower’s loan balance pursuant to this Agreement. For purposes of computing the Revolving Credit, all Letters of Credit and one hundred (100%) percent of acceptances shall be deemed to be Loans.

REVOLVING CREDIT NOTE

$30,000,000.00		BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS
		JULY 31, 2006

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, HITTITE MICROWAVE CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, with a chief executive office and principal place of business at 00 Xxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxxx 00000 (the “Borrower”) promises to pay to the order of

CITIZENS BANK OF MASSACHUSETTS
(together with its successors and assigns, the “Bank”)

at 00 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxxx 00000, or at such other place as the holder of this Note may from time to time designate in writing, the principal sum of THIRTY MILLION ($30,000,000.00), DOLLARS, or, if less, the aggregate of all funds advanced to the Borrower by the Bank under the Revolving Credit as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated of even date herewith between the Bank and the Borrower (as it may be amended, modified, substituted or replaced, the “Credit Agreement”), with interest only payable monthly in arrears at the rate hereinafter provided until paid in full, commencing on August 31, 2006 and on the same day of each succeeding month (except as expressly provided in Rider A with regard to certain LIBOR Rate Loans, as defined in Rider A), with the entire unpaid balance of principal and interest due on July 31, 2007 (the “Maturity Date”).

The Borrower promises to pay (a) interest monthly on the outstanding principal balance at the rate, elected by the Borrower prior to each advance, of either: (i) a variable rate of interest equal to the Prime Rate, as defined below (the “Variable Rate”); or (ii) a fixed rate of interest for each Interest Period of One Month equal to the LIBOR Rate (for such Interest Period) plus the Applicable Margin (as such terms are defined in Rider A attached hereto, entitled “Citizens Bank LIBOR Advantage Provisions”) (hereafter each advance bearing interest based on a LIBOR Rate being a “LIBOR Rate Loan”); (b) all taxes levied or assessed upon said principal sum against any holder of this Note; and (c) all costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in the collection, defense, preservation, enforcement or protection of this Note, in the foreclosure of any mortgage or security interest now or hereafter securing the same or in any proceedings to otherwise enforce or protect this Note or any security therefor. All advances shall be due and payable on the earlier of acceleration or the Maturity Date. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of thirty (30) day months and a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed.

The “Prime Rate” shall mean the variable per annum rate of interest so designated from time to time by the Bank as the Citizens Bank Prime Rate. The Prime Rate is a reference rate and does not necessarily represent the lowest or best rate being charged to any customer. The rate of interest hereunder shall change simultaneously and automatically, without further notice, upon the Bank’s determination and designation from time to time of the Prime Rate. The Bank’s determination and designation from time to time of the Prime Rate shall not in any way preclude the Bank from making loans to other borrowers at rates that are higher or lower than or different from the referenced rate.

After an Event of Default or the Maturity Date, interest on any and all balances due to the Bank shall accrue and be payable at four (4%) percent above the interest rate which would otherwise be in effect.

If any payment or installment to be made hereunder, whether interest, principal or both is fifteen (15) days or more late, Borrower will be charged 5.0% of the unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled payment or $25.00, whichever is greater.

In the absence of an election by the Borrower of an interest rate as set forth above, at least three (3) Business Days prior to an advance, such advance shall accrue interest at the Variable Rate.

All LIBOR Rate Loans shall be subject to and further governed by the terms and conditions set forth in Rider A. In the event of a conflict between the terms hereof and Rider A, Rider A shall control.

This Note evidences borrowings under, and is entitled to the benefits of, and is subject to the provisions of, the Credit Agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference and which sets forth further terms and conditions (each an “Event of Default”) upon which the entire unpaid principal hereof and all interest hereon may become due and payable prior to the Maturity Date and generally as to further rights of the Bank and duties of the Borrower with respect hereto. Upon (i) the Maturity Date, or (ii) at the option of the Bank, upon the happening of any Event of Default, all advances outstanding hereunder, together with accrued interest thereon, shall become immediately due and payable and any obligation of the Bank to make advances hereunder or under the Credit Agreement shall terminate without further demand or notice of any kind. Failure to make demand upon the occurrence of an Event of Default shall not constitute a waiver of the right to make demand in the event of any subsequent default.

Principal amounts, or any part thereof, outstanding under this Note may be prepaid at any time without penalty or premium.

The Borrower represents to the Bank that the proceeds of this Note will not be used for personal, family, or household purposes.

Any and all deposits or other sums at any time credited by or due to the Borrower from the Bank, or any cash, securities, instruments, or other property of the Borrower in the possession of the Bank, or any of its banking or lending affiliates or any bank acting as a participant under any loan arrangement between the Bank and the Borrower, whether for safekeeping, or otherwise, or in transit to or from the Bank, or any of its banking or lending affiliates, or any such participant, or in the possession of any third party acting on the Bank’s behalf (regardless of the reason the Bank had received same or whether the Bank has conditionally released the same) shall at all times constitute security for any and all liabilities, obligations, and indebtedness of the Borrower to the Bank, and may be applied or set off against such liabilities, obligations, and indebtedness, at any time, whether or not such liabilities, obligations, and indebtedness are then due or whether or not other collateral is available to the Bank. After an Event of Default, while such Event of Default is continuing, the holder may apply or set off such deposits or other sums at any time whether or not the liability or obligation of the Borrower, endorser or guarantor is then due. The provisions of this Paragraph are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any other right that the holder has with respect to such deposits, sums, securities or other property under other agreements or applicable principles of law. The holder shall have no duty to take steps to preserve rights against prior parties as to such securities or other property. TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED BY LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE THE BANK TO EXERCISE ITS REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF THE BORROWER IS HEREBY VOLUNTARILY, INTENTIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.

Except as expressly provided herein, the Borrower waives presentment, demand, notice, protest, and all other demands or notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, endorsement, performance, default or enforcement of this Note, assents to any and all extensions or postponements of the time of payment or any other indulgence, to any substitution, exchange or release of collateral and/or to the addition or release of any other party or person primarily or secondarily liable, generally waives all suretyship defenses and defenses in the nature thereof, and agrees to be bound by all the terms and conditions contained in this Note, the Credit Agreement and in any other loan document executed in connection herewith, and in all other instruments now or hereafter executed evidencing or governing all or any portion of the collateral for the Note and the obligations of the Borrower.

The Borrower will pay all costs and expenses of collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred or paid by the holder in enforcing this Note or the obligations hereby evidenced, to the extent permitted by law.

The Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold the Bank harmless against any claim brought or threatened against the Bank by the Borrower or any other person (as well as from attorney’s reasonable fees and expenses in connection therewith) on account of the Bank’s relationship with the Borrower or any guarantor of the Borrower’s obligations, each of which may be defended, compromised, settled or pursued by the Bank with counsel of the Bank’s selection, but at the expense of the Borrower. The Borrower shall not be required to so indemnify the Bank against the Bank’s gross negligence and/or misconduct or for any claims brought by the Borrower against the Bank in which a final judgment is rendered in favor of the Borrower.

No delay or omission of the holder in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall constitute a waiver of any such right or remedy. Acceptance by the holder of any payment after acceleration shall not be deemed a waiver of such acceleration. A waiver on one occasion shall not operate as a bar to or waiver of any such right or remedy on any future occasion.

Time is of the essence of this Note.

If any provision of this Note is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to be enforceable, or if such modification is not practicable, such provision shall be deemed deleted from this Note, and the other provisions of this Note shall remain in full force and effect, and shall be construed in favor of holder. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, it is the express intention of Borrower and holder to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, all agreements between Borrower and holder, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether written or oral, are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity of this Note or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Bank or the holder of this Note for the use, forbearance or detention of the money loaned pursuant hereto or otherwise, or for the payment or performance of any covenant or obligation contained herein or in any other document executed in connection herewith, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If, from any circumstance or contingency whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any other document executed in connection herewith, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity, and if from any such circumstance or contingency holder shall ever receive as interest or otherwise an amount which would exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted by applicable law, the amount of such excess shall be applied as of the date received by holder to a reduction of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, and not to the payment of interest (and in such event the proper amount of interest payable shall be redetermined accordingly), and if such excessive interest exceeds such indebtedness, the amount of such excessive interest shall be refunded to Borrower together with any overpaid interest resulting from such redetermination.

THE BORROWER AND ALL ENDORSERS AND GUARANTORS HEREBY VOLUNTARILY, KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY THEY MAY HAVE IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING, IN LAW OR EQUITY, IN CONNECTION WITH, RELATED TO OR ARISING FROM THIS NOTE, ANY DOCUMENT, INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT EVIDENCING, GOVERNING OR SECURING THIS NOTE, OR UNDER ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS, VERBAL OR WRITTEN OR ANY ACTION BY ANY PARTY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE. THE BORROWER HEREBY CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF THE BANK HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT BANK WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL PROVISION. THE BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT BANK HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO BANK’S LENDING RELATIONSHIP WITH THE BORROWER BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH.

This Note shall be deemed delivered to the Bank in Boston, Massachusetts and shall be governed by the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts and shall take effect as a sealed instrument.
