VOTING AND SUPPORT AGREEMENT

This VOTING AND SUPPORT AGREEMENT, dated as of October 21, 2014 (this “Agreement”), is made and entered into by and among Amtech Systems, Inc., an Arizona corporation (“Parent”) and the stockholders of BTU International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), that are listed on Schedule A hereto (each a “Stockholder” and, collectively, the “Stockholders”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company, Parent and BTU Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), are entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), which provides, among other things, for the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement;

WHEREAS, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Merger Agreement;

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, each Stockholder is the record and/or beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of the number of shares of Company Common Stock set forth across from such Stockholder’s name on Schedule A attached hereto and has the voting and dispositive power in connection with the Merger with respect to such shares (with respect to each Stockholder, such Stockholder’s “Existing Shares” and, together with any shares of Company Common Stock acquired after the date hereof, whether upon the exercise of options, conversion of convertible securities or otherwise, such Stockholder’s “Shares”); and

WHEREAS, as an inducement and a condition to entering into the Merger Agreement, Parent has required that the Stockholders agree, and the Stockholders have agreed, to enter into this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, to implement the foregoing and in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1. Agreement to Vote; Irrevocable Proxy; Etc.

(a) Agreement to Vote. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Stockholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that, from and after the date hereof and until the Termination Date, at any meeting of the holders of Company Common Stock, however called, or in connection with any written consent of the holders of Company Common Stock, such Stockholder shall (i) appear at such meeting or otherwise cause all of such Stockholder’s Shares to be counted as present thereat for purposes of calculating a quorum and respond to any other request by the Company or Parent for written consent, if any, and (ii) vote (or cause to be voted) such Stockholder’s Shares, (x) in favor of (A) approval of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and (B) any other matter that is required to facilitate the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including without limitation any adjournment or postponement of such meeting, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if there are insufficient votes at the time of such meeting to approve the adoption of the Merger, and (y) against (A) any Takeover Proposal, (B) any proposal made in opposition to or in competition with the Merger, or would result in a breach of the Merger Agreement, or (C) any other action involving the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company that would reasonably be expected to have the effect of impeding, materially interfering with, materially


delaying, materially postponing, or otherwise impairing the ability of the Company to consummate the Merger. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, no Stockholder shall enter into any agreement or understanding with any Person prior to the termination of this Agreement to vote in any manner inconsistent herewith. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the obligations of each Stockholder specified in this Section 1(a) shall not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to the Company of any Takeover Proposal prior to the Termination Date.

(b) Irrevocable Proxy. Each Stockholder hereby revokes any and all previous proxies and powers of attorney granted with respect to such Stockholder’s Shares, and no Stockholder shall grant any subsequent proxy or power of attorney with respect to such Stockholder’s Shares, except as set forth in this Agreement or required by a Letter of Transmittal. By entering into this Agreement, subject to the last sentence of this Section 1(b), each Stockholder hereby grants, or agrees to cause the applicable record holder to grant, a proxy appointing Parent, any designee of Parent and each of Parent’s officers, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, as such Stockholder’s attorney-in-fact and proxy, for and in such Stockholder’s name, to be counted as present, vote, express consent or dissent with respect to such Stockholder’s Shares for the purposes set forth in Section 1(a). The proxy granted by each Stockholder pursuant to this Section 1(b) is, subject to the last sentence of this Section 1(b), irrevocable and is coupled with an interest, in accordance with Section 212(e) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, and is granted in order to secure such Stockholder’s performance under this Agreement and also in consideration of Parent entering into this Agreement and the Merger Agreement. If either Stockholder fails for any reason to be counted as present, consent or vote such Stockholder’s Shares in accordance with the requirements of Section 1(a), then Parent shall have the right to cause to be present, consent or vote such Stockholder’s Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 1(a). The proxy granted by each Stockholder shall be automatically revoked upon the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance Section 5.

(c) Stockholder Restrictions. From the date of this Agreement until the Termination Date and except as otherwise contemplated in the Merger Agreement, no Stockholder shall (i) sell, transfer, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or understanding with respect to the sale, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or other disposition of, or limitation on the voting rights of, any of such Stockholder’s Shares (any such action, a “Transfer”); provided that nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the exercise by either Stockholder of any options to purchase Shares, (ii) deposit any of such Stockholder’s Shares into a voting trust or enter into a separate voting agreement with respect to such Stockholder’s Shares, (iii) take any action, either directly or indirectly, that would cause any representation or warranty of such Stockholder contained herein to become untrue or incorrect, in each case, in any material respect, or would reasonably be expected to have the effect of preventing or disabling such Stockholder from performing his or her obligations under this Agreement or (iv) commit or agree to take any of the foregoing actions. Any action taken in violation of the foregoing sentence shall be null and void ab initio. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Stockholder may make Transfers of Shares by will, for estate or tax planning purposes, for charitable purposes or as charitable gifts or donations; provided, that, as a condition to any such Transfer, each transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement applicable to such Stockholder and to hold such Shares subject to all the terms and provisions of this Agreement to the same extent as such terms and provisions bound such Stockholder. If any involuntary Transfer of any of the Shares shall occur, the transferee (which term, as used herein, shall include the initial transferee and any and all subsequent transferees of the initial transferee) shall take and hold such Shares subject to all of the restrictions, liabilities and rights under this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date.

(d) Additional Shares. Each Stockholder hereby agrees, during the term of this Agreement, to promptly notify Parent of any new Shares acquired by such Stockholder, if any, after the execution of this


Agreement. Any such Shares shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement as though owned by such Stockholder on the date of this Agreement. In the event of a stock split, stock dividend or distribution, or any change in the Company Common Stock by reason of any split-up, reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification, reincorporation, exchange of shares or the like, the terms “Existing Shares” and “Shares” shall be deemed to refer to and include such shares as well as all such stock dividends and distributions and any securities into which or for which any or all of such shares may be changed or exchanged or which are received in such transaction.

(e) Ownership Interest. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in Parent, any of the Persons identified in Section 1(b) or any other Person any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to, or pecuniary interest in, any of the Shares. All rights, ownership and economic benefits of and relating to, and pecuniary interest in, the Shares shall remain vested in and belong to the applicable Stockholder, and neither Parent, the Persons identified in Section 1(b) nor any other Person shall have any power or authority to direct either Stockholder in the voting or disposition of any of the Shares, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement.

2. Representations and Warranties of the Stockholders. Each Stockholder hereby represents and warrants to Parent, as of the date hereof, and at all times during the term of this Agreement, solely with respect to himself, as follows:

(a) Authorization; Validity of Agreement; Necessary Action. Such Stockholder has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform his obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Stockholder, and, assuming this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of Parent, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of such Stockholder, enforceable against such Stockholder in accordance with its terms, subject to the Bankruptcy and Equity Exception.

(b) Shares. Such Stockholder’s Existing Shares are owned beneficially and/or of record by such Stockholder, as set forth on Schedule A attached hereto. Except for the shares of Company Common Stock set forth on Schedule B attached hereto with respect to such Stockholder (such applicable shares, the “Excluded Shares”), such Stockholder’s Existing Shares and the Excluded Shares constitute all of the shares of Company Common Stock owned of record or beneficially by such Stockholder, and, except for such Stockholder’s Existing Shares and the Excluded Shares, such Stockholder does not beneficially own or have any right to acquire (whether currently, upon lapse of time, following the satisfaction of any conditions, upon the occurrence of any event or any combination of the foregoing) any shares of Company Common Stock or any securities convertible into shares of Company Common Stock (other than pursuant to any option, stock award or similar compensation plan adopted by the Company). Such Stockholder has the voting power, sole power of disposition, sole power to issue instructions with respect to the matters set forth in Section 1 hereof and power to agree to all of the matters set forth in this Agreement with respect to each of such Stockholder’s Existing Shares as set forth on Schedule A attached hereto, with no other limitations, qualifications or restrictions on such rights, subject to applicable federal securities Laws, the organizational documents of the Company and the terms of this Agreement and the Merger Agreement.

(c) No Conflicts. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Stockholder do not, and the performance of the terms of this Agreement by such Stockholder will not, (a) require the consent or approval of any other Person pursuant to any agreement, obligation or instrument binding on such Stockholder or his properties or assets, (b) except as may otherwise be required by federal securities Laws, conflict with or violate any Law applicable to such Stockholder or pursuant to which any of his properties or assets are bound or (c) violate any other agreement to which such Stockholder is a party, including any voting agreement, stockholders agreement, irrevocable proxy or voting trust. Such


Stockholder’s Existing Shares are not, with respect to the voting or transfer thereof, subject to any other agreement, including any voting agreement, stockholders agreement, irrevocable proxy or voting trust.

(d) Brokers and Finders. Such Stockholder has not employed any broker or finder or incurred any liability for any brokerage fees, commissions, finder’s fees or other similar fees or commissions in connection with this Agreement based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of the Stockholder in his or her capacity as such.

(e) Acknowledgment. Such Stockholder understands and acknowledges that Parent is entering into the Merger Agreement in reliance upon such Stockholder’s execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement.

3. Representations and Warranties of Parent. Parent hereby represents and warrants to each of the Stockholders, as of the date hereof, and at all times during the term of this Agreement, as follows:

(a) Organization. Parent is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the State of Arizona.

(b) Corporate Authorization; Validity of Agreement; Necessary Action. Parent has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution, delivery and performance by Parent of this Agreement and the consummation by Parent of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly authorized by the Parent Board, and no other corporate action or proceedings on the part of Parent are necessary to authorize the execution and delivery by Parent of this Agreement, and the consummation by Parent of the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Parent, and, assuming this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Stockholders, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of Parent, enforceable against Parent in accordance with its terms, subject to the Bankruptcy and Equity Exception.

(c) No Conflicts. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Parent do not, and the performance of the terms of this Agreement by Parent will not, (a) require the consent or approval of any other Person pursuant to any agreement, obligation or instrument binding on Parent, (b) except as may otherwise be required by federal securities Laws, conflict with or violate any Law applicable to Parent or (c) violate any other material agreement to which Parent is a party.

4. Further Assurances. From time to time, at any other party’s request and without further consideration, each party hereto shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take all such further lawful action as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

5. Termination. This Agreement, and the irrevocable proxy set forth in Section 1(b), shall automatically terminate, and no party shall have any rights or obligations hereunder and this Agreement shall become null and void and have no further force or effect with no liability on the part of any party hereto upon the earlier to occur of the (a) Effective Time, (b) valid termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, (c) a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change or a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, and (d) at the option of any Stockholder, the execution or granting of any amendment, modification, change or waiver with respect to the Merger Agreement subsequent to the date of this Agreement that (i) results in any material decrease in, or material change in the form of, or (ii) imposes any material restrictions or additional material constraints on the payment of, the Merger Consideration (any such date shall be referred to herein as the “Termination Date”). Nothing in this


Section 5 shall relieve any party of liability for breach of this Agreement prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to its terms.

6. Costs and Expenses. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses.

7. Amendment and Modification; No Waiver.

No provision of this Agreement may be waived, discharged or terminated other than by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom the enforcement of such waiver, discharge or termination is sought, except that this Agreement may be terminated as set forth in Section 5. The failure of either party to exercise any right, power or remedy provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect of this Agreement at law or in equity, or to insist upon compliance by any other party with its obligations under this Agreement, shall not constitute a waiver by such party’s right to exercise any such or other right, power ore remedy or to demand such compliance.

8. Notices.

14. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.

15. Assignment.

Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

16. Consent to Jurisdiction.

Each of the parties hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect hereof, (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the failure to lawfully serve process, (b) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), and (c) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, that (i) the suit, action or proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper and (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each party irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall affect the right of any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

17. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) EACH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (C) EACH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (D) EACH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 17.

18. Negotiated Terms. The provisions of this Agreement are the result of negotiations between the parties. Accordingly, this Agreement shall not be construed in favor of or against any party by reason of the extent to which the party or any of his or its professional advisors participated in its preparation.


19. Action in Stockholder Capacity Only. The parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement is entered into by each Stockholder solely in his or her capacity as the record and/or beneficial owner of such Stockholder’s Shares and nothing in this Agreement shall restrict or limit in any respect any action taken by such Stockholder in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Company. The taking of any action (or failure to act) by either Stockholder in his or her capacity as an officer or director of the Company will in no event be deemed to constitute a breach of this Agreement.

20. Stockholder Obligations Several and Not Joint. The obligations of each Stockholder hereunder shall be several and not joint and no Stockholder shall be liable for any breach of the terms of this Agreement by the other Stockholder.

21. Documentation and Information. Each Stockholder (i) consents to and authorizes the publication and disclosure by Parent and the Company of such Stockholder’s identity and holdings of the Shares, and the nature of such Stockholder’s commitments, arrangements and understandings under this Agreement, in any disclosure document required by Law, rule or regulation in connection with the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement (and, with respect to any other press release or similar announcement, authorizes publication and disclosure of such information if the Stockholder has given prior consent to such press release or other announcement) and (ii) agrees as promptly as practicable to give to Parent and the Company any information reasonably related to the foregoing as either may reasonably require for the preparation of any such disclosure documents. As promptly as practicable, each Stockholder shall notify Parent and the Company of any required corrections with respect to any written information supplied by such Stockholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and to the extent such Stockholder becomes aware that any have become false or misleading in any material respect.
