The Trustee and its affiliates may engage in, and will be permitted to continue to engage in, other transactions with us and our affiliates; provided, however, that if it acquires any conflicting interest (as defined in the Trust Indenture Act), it must eliminate the conflict or resign.

Subject to such provision, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture at the request of any of the holders of the debt securities issued thereunder, unless they have offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it. </font>

The imposition of a penalty bid might have an effect on the price of a security to the extent that it were to discourage resales of the security before the distribution is completed. </font>

The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys&#8217; fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided such officer, director, employee or agent acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation&#8217;s best interests and, with respect to criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. A Delaware corporation may indemnify officers or directors in an action by or in the right of the corporation under the same conditions, except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation.

As used herein, the term &#8220;Reincorporated Predecessor&#8221; means a corporation that is merged with and into the Corporation in a statutory merger where (a)&#160;the Corporation is the surviving corporation of such merger; (b)&#160;the primary purpose of such merger is to change the corporate domicile of the Reincorporated Predecessor to Delaware.&#8221; </font>

one or more series of the following securities of the Company: (i)&nbsp;shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the &ldquo;<B>Common

and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as amended, the &ldquo;<B>Charter</B>&rdquo;), the Company&rsquo;s Seventh Amended and Restated
Bylaws and applicable provisions of Delaware corporate law, in a manner that does not violate any law, government or court-imposed order
or restriction or agreement or instrument then binding on the Company or otherwise impair the valid or binding nature of the obligations
represented by the applicable Securities; (ii)&nbsp;at the time of offer, issuance and sale of any Securities, the Registration Statement,
and any amendments thereto (including post-effective amendments), will have been declared effective under the Securities Act, and no stop
order suspending its effectiveness will have been issued and remain in effect; (iii)&nbsp;a prospectus supplement will have been filed
with the Commission describing the Securities offered thereby; (iv)&nbsp;all Securities will be issued and sold in compliance with applicable
U.S. federal and state securities laws and in the manner stated in the Registration Statement and the applicable prospectus supplement;
(v)&nbsp;prior to the issuance of any Securities, a definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement with respect to any Securities
offered will have been duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by the Company and the other parties thereto; (vi)&nbsp;any
Debt Securities will be issued under the Indenture, dated as of January&nbsp;18, 2017, filed as Exhibit&nbsp;4.8 to the Registration Statement
(the &ldquo;<B>Base Indenture</B>&rdquo;), between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association (as successor in interest
to U.S. Bank National Association), as trustee (the &ldquo;<B>Trustee</B>&rdquo;), and one or more supplemental indentures thereto or
officers&rsquo; certificates thereunder setting forth the terms of the applicable series of Debt Securities (the Base Indenture, together
with the applicable supplemental indenture or officers&rsquo; certificate pertaining to the applicable series of Debt Securities, the
 &ldquo;<B>Applicable Indenture</B>&rdquo;); (vii)&nbsp;if being sold by the issuer thereof, the Securities will be delivered against payment
of valid consideration therefor and in accordance with the terms of the applicable Board Action authorizing such sale and any applicable
underwriting agreement or purchase agreement and as contemplated by the Registration Statement and/or the applicable prospectus supplement;
(viii)&nbsp;the Company will remain a Delaware corporation; (ix)&nbsp;upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock, including Common
Stock which may be issued upon conversion or exercise of any other Securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock, the total
number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding will not exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock that the Company is
then authorized to issue under the Charter; (x)&nbsp;the terms of the Securities will conform in all material respects to the respective
descriptions thereof in the prospectus which is part of the Registration Statement; (xi)&nbsp;certificates, if required, representing
the Securities will be duly executed and delivered and, to the extent required by any applicable agreement, duly authenticated and countersigned;
(xii)&nbsp;the laws of the State of New York will be the governing law with respect to any Indenture; and (xiii)&nbsp;any Securities convertible
into or exercisable, exchangeable or redeemable for any other Securities will be duly converted, exercised, exchanged or redeemed in accordance
with their terms.</P>

Veeco Instruments Inc. (the "Registrant") is relying on Rule 456(b) and Rule 457(r) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to defer payment of all of the registration fee. In connection with the securities offered hereby, the Registrant will pay "pay-as-you-go registration fees" in accordance with Rule 456(b). The Registrant will calculate the registration fee applicable to an offer of securities pursuant to this Registration Statement based on the fee payment rate in effect on the date of such fee payment.

An indeterminate aggregate initial offering price and number or amount of the securities of each identified class is being registered as may from time to time be issued at indeterminate prices, including securities that may be issued upon exercise, conversion, settlement or exchange of, any securities offered hereunder.

<td class="text">Separate consideration may or may not be received for securities that are issuable on exercise, conversion, settlement or exchange of other securities.

Veeco Instruments Inc. (the "Registrant") is relying on Rule 456(b) and Rule 457(r) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to defer payment of all of the registration fee. In connection with the securities offered hereby, the Registrant will pay "pay-as-you-go registration fees" in accordance with Rule 456(b). The Registrant will calculate the registration fee applicable to an offer of securities pursuant to this Registration Statement based on the fee payment rate in effect on the date of such fee payment.

An indeterminate aggregate initial offering price and number or amount of the securities of each identified class is being registered as may from time to time be issued at indeterminate prices, including securities that may be issued upon exercise, conversion, settlement or exchange of, any securities offered hereunder.

Veeco Instruments Inc. (the "Registrant") is relying on Rule 456(b) and Rule 457(r) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to defer payment of all of the registration fee. In connection with the securities offered hereby, the Registrant will pay "pay-as-you-go registration fees" in accordance with Rule 456(b). The Registrant will calculate the registration fee applicable to an offer of securities pursuant to this Registration Statement based on the fee payment rate in effect on the date of such fee payment.

An indeterminate aggregate initial offering price and number or amount of the securities of each identified class is being registered as may from time to time be issued at indeterminate prices, including securities that may be issued upon exercise, conversion, settlement or exchange of, any securities offered hereunder.

Exclusive of accrued interest and accumulated dividends, if any.</ffd:OfferingNote>
