Dear Behrooz: 
 InvenSense, Inc. (the
“Company”) has approved the payment of a bonus (a “Retention Bonus”) to you. This letter agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of your Retention Bonus, including the requirements that you must meet in order
to receive your Retention Bonus. This letter agreement also describes certain other compensation arrangements. 
 1. Eligibility. You
will be entitled to receive your Retention Bonus if (a)(i) you remain an employee of the Company until the later of (A) the date on which the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 21,
2016, among the Company, TDK Corporation and TDK Sensor Solutions Corporation (the “Merger Agreement”) are consummated and (B) the first anniversary of the date on which the Merger Agreement is fully executed (such later date,
the “Vesting Date”), or (ii) your employment with the Company terminates prior to the Vesting Date as a result of a termination by the Company without Cause (as defined below) or your death or your permanent disability (as
defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) (such date of termination, the “Termination Date”) and (b) on the first to occur of Vesting Date or Termination Date, as applicable, you or your
estate execute (and do not revoke within the revocation period) the release in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A to this letter agreement (with such modifications thereto as the Company deems necessary to reflect any changes in the law).
If your employment with the Company terminates as a result of your voluntary termination or a termination by the Company for Cause prior to the Vesting Date, or if you or your estate do not execute (or you or your estate revoke) the release, you
will not be entitled to receive a Retention Bonus under this letter agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Merger Agreement terminates for any reason, this letter agreement will immediately terminate and you will not be entitled to a
Retention Bonus. 
 For purposes of this letter agreement, “Cause” shall mean (x) your gross negligence or willful misconduct
in the performance of any material act or refusal to perform any material act in the performance of your duties to the Company that is to the detriment of the Company (or any parent, subsidiary or successor of the Company), with such gross
negligence or willful misconduct or refusal to perform not remedied within thirty (30) days after written notice from the Company, which written notice shall state that failure to remedy such gross negligence or willful misconduct or refusal to
perform may result in termination for Cause; (y) your material breach of a material provision of any agreement with the Company (or any parent, subsidiary or successor of the Company) which, if capable of being cured, is not cured within thirty
(30) days after written notice from the Company, which written notice shall state that failure to cure may 







 
result in termination for Cause; or (z) your indictment with respect to a felony crime involving dishonesty, breach of trust, or physical harm to any person which reflects conduct or
character that the Company reasonably and in good faith determines is inconsistent with continued employment. 
 2. Amount of Your
Retention Bonus. Your Retention Bonus will be in an amount equal to $1,000,000. You acknowledge and agree that such payment may be satisfied by any affiliate, parent or subsidiary of the Company. 

3. Time of Payment. Your Retention Bonus will be paid in a lump sum in cash within fifteen (15) days following the date that the
release described in Section 1 becomes irrevocable. If, however, the period of time during which you are permitted to consider or to revoke the release described in Section 1 spans two (2) calendar years, then the Retention Bonus
shall be paid in the form of a lump sum on the first payroll date that occurs in the second calendar year. 
 4. Equity Award
Acceleration. On the first regular payroll date of the Company following the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement), the Company will make a lump sum cash payment to you in an amount equal to 20% of the total cash value (after
conversion pursuant to Section 2.04 of the Merger Agreement) of the unvested shares of Company Restricted Stock held by you under any Company Stock Plan (as defined in the Merger Agreement), and you hereby acknowledge and agree that each
payment that would have been made to you on the applicable vesting dates with respect to such unvested shares of Company Restricted Stock (as described in Section 2.04 of the Merger Agreement) will be reduced by 20%. 

5. Acknowledgement. In consideration of the Company entering into this letter agreement, you acknowledge and agree that neither the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement nor any changes that are made to the nature or scope of your title, duties, authorities, function, responsibilities, reporting structure, or signing authority solely as a result
of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement will constitute “a material reduction in your authority, duties or responsibilities” pursuant to Section 5(e)(i) of the Executive Change in Control and Severance
Agreement, effective as of October 23, 2012, between you and the Company. In addition, you acknowledge and agree that effective as of the Closing, Section 5(e)(i) of the Executive Change in Control and Severance Agreement, effective as of
October 23, 2012, between you and the Company shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following language: “a material reduction of Employee’s authority, duties or responsibilities that occurs subsequent to the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 21, 2016, among the Company, TDK Corporation and TDK Sensor Solutions Corporation. 

6. New Base Salary and Bonus. Your base salary will be increased to a rate of $420,000 per year effective as of the date hereof, and

                                 (“Employee”) in favor of the

 WHEREAS, pursuant to the Letter Agreement, on the Vesting Date or Termination Date, as applicable (as such terms
are defined in the Letter Agreement), Employee is required to execute (and not revoke within the revocation period) this Release in order to receive the Retention Bonus. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which are hereby
acknowledged, Employee agrees as follows: 
 1. Release in Full of All Claims. In exchange for a payment in an amount equal to
$        , Employee, for Employee and for Employee’s agents, attorneys, heirs, administrators, executors, assigns and other representatives, and anyone acting or claiming on his, her or their joint
or several behalf, hereby releases, waives and forever discharges the Company, including its past or present employees, officers, directors, trustees, board members, stockholders, equityholders, agents, affiliates (including, but not limited to, TDK
USA Corporation and its affiliates), parent entities, subsidiaries, heirs, administrators, successors, assigns and other representatives, insurers and anyone acting on its or their joint or several behalf (the “Releasees”), from any
and all known and unknown claims, causes of action, demands, damages, costs, expenses, liabilities and other losses that Employee has or may have against the Company or the other Releasees that relate to the Retention Bonus (following payment
thereof) or Employee’s employment with the Company or any of its affiliates and subsidiaries or the termination thereof. By way of example only, and without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, Employee agrees that Employee is
releasing, waiving and discharging any and all claims against the Company and the other Releasees under (a) any federal, state or local employment law or statute, including, but not limited to, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act(s) of 1964 and

or the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) and applicable state employment law(s), including, but not limited to, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act or Government Code or Labor Code provisions or
(b) any federal, state or municipal law, statute, ordinance or common law doctrine (including, but not limited to, breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, breach of fiduciary duty, wrongful discharge in
violation of public policy, infliction of emotional distress, negligence, invasion of privacy, interference with contractual relationship, defamation and fraud); provided, however, that Employee specifically does not release any claims to challenge








 
the validity of this Release under the ADEA or any claims that Employee cannot waive by operation of law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this release shall not include claims with respect to
(a) salary compensation earned, (b) benefits accrued under any of the Company’s or any affiliate’s written benefit plans, (c) expenses to be reimbursed by the Company or any affiliate to Employee, (d) any rights that
Employee may have pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 21, 2016, among the Company, TDK Corporation and TDK Sensor Solutions Corporation, [or] (e) insurance or indemnification rights which Employee

                    , 20    ]. 

Nothing contained herein shall be construed to prohibit Employee from filing a charge with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or
participating in investigations by that entity. However, Employee acknowledges that the release Employee executes herein waives Employee’s right to seek or accept individual remedies or monetary damages in any such action or lawsuit arising
from such charges or investigations, including, but not limited to, back pay, front pay or reinstatement. Employee further agrees that if any person, organization or other entity should bring a claim against the Releasees involving any matter
covered by this Release, Employee will not accept any personal relief in any such action, including damages, attorneys’ fees, costs and all other legal or equitable relief. 

Employee further understands that nothing contained herein is intended to interfere with or discourage Employee’s good faith disclosure
to any governmental entity related to a suspected violation of the law, and nothing contained herein waives or releases Employee’s right to receive money for disclosing such information to a government agency. Employee further understands that
Employee will not be subject to retaliation by the Company for a disclosure made pursuant to this provision. 
 Employee agrees that no
fact, event, circumstance, evidence or transaction, which could now be asserted or which may hereafter be discovered, shall affect in any manner the final, absolute and unconditional nature of the release set forth above. Employee acknowledges that
Employee fully understands the following provisions of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code: 
 A general release does not extend
to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor. 

Employee expressly and voluntarily waives each and all claims, rights or benefits Employee has or may have under Section 1542 of the
California Civil Code to the fullest extent that Employee may lawfully waive such claims, rights and benefits in connection with this Release. 

2. No Claims Filed. Employee affirms that, as of the date of execution of this Release, Employee has filed no lawsuit, charge,
claim or complaint with any governmental agency or in any court against the Company or any of the other Releasees.

Company or any of its Releasees, except as required by law, subpoena or other compulsory process. 
 4. ADEA/OWBPA Waiver and
Acknowledgement. Insofar as this Release pertains to the release of Employee’s claims, if any, under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), Employee, pursuant to and in compliance with the rights afforded Employee under the

declared or be determined by any court to be invalid, the validity of the remaining parts, terms or provisions shall not be affected thereby, and said invalid part, term or provision shall be deemed not to be part of this Release. The waiver of a
breach of any of the provisions of this Release shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Release or a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same provision.

free will and that Employee fully understands and intends to be bound by the terms of this Release. Further, Employee acknowledges that Employee received a copy of this Release on December     , 2016 and has had an
