 Exhibit 10.2 

QLOGIC CORPORATION 
 2005
PERFORMANCE INCENTIVE PLAN 
 TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION 

 

	1.	General. 

 These Terms and Conditions of Incentive Stock Option (these
“Terms”) apply to a particular stock option (“Option”) to purchase shares of Common Stock of QLogic Corporation (the “Corporation”) if incorporated by reference in the Notice of Grant Agreement (“Grant
Notice”) corresponding to that particular grant. The recipient of the Option identified in the Grant Notice is referred to as the “Grantee.” The per share exercise price of the Option as set forth on the Grants tab on the UBS
OneSource website (https://onesource.ubs.com/qlgc) is referred to as the “Exercise Price.” The effective date of grant of the Option as set forth on the Grants tab on the UBS OneSource website is referred to as the “Award
Date.” The Option was granted under and subject to the QLogic Corporation 2005 Performance Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and these Terms. Capitalized terms are defined in the Plan if not defined herein. The Option has been granted to
the Grantee in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other form of compensation otherwise payable or to be paid to the Grantee. The Grant Notice and these Terms are collectively referred to as the “Option Agreement” applicable to the
Option, or this “Option Agreement.” 
  

	2.	Vesting; Limits on Exercise. 

 Subject to adjustment under Section 7.1 of the
Plan and further subject to early termination under Section 5 of these Terms and Section 7.4 of the Plan, the Option shall become vested as follows: [Vesting terms to be determined at time of grant]. The Option may be exercised only
to the extent the Option is vested and exercisable. 
  

	 	•	 	Cumulative Exercisability. To the extent that the Option is vested and exercisable, the Grantee has the right to exercise the Option (to the extent not previously exercised), and such right shall continue, until
the expiration or earlier termination of the Option. 

  

	 	•	 	No Fractional Shares. Fractional share interests shall be disregarded, but may be cumulated. 

  

	 	•	 	Minimum Exercise. No fewer than 100 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment under Section 7.1 of the Plan) may be purchased at any one time, unless the number purchased is the total number at the time
exercisable under the Option. 

  

	 	•	 	ISO Value Limit. If the aggregate fair market value of the shares with respect to which ISOs (whether granted under the Option or otherwise) first become exercisable by the Grantee in any calendar year exceeds
$100,000, as measured on the applicable Award Dates, the limitations of Section 5.1.2 of the Plan shall apply and to such extent the Option will be rendered a nonqualified stock option.

	3.	Continuance of Employment/Service Required; No Employment/Service Commitment. 


The vesting schedule requires continued employment or service through each applicable vesting date as a condition to the vesting of the
applicable installment of the Option and the rights and benefits under this Option Agreement. Employment or service for only a portion of the vesting period, even if a substantial portion, will not entitle the Grantee to any proportionate vesting or
avoid or mitigate a termination of rights and benefits upon or following a termination of employment or services as provided in Section 5 below or under the Plan. 

Nothing contained in this Option Agreement or the Plan constitutes a continued employment or service commitment by the Corporation or any of
its Subsidiaries, affects the Grantee’s status, if he or she is an employee, as an employee at will who is subject to termination without cause, confers upon the Grantee any right to remain employed by or in service to the Corporation or any
Subsidiary, interferes in any way with the right of the Corporation or any Subsidiary at any time to terminate such employment or service, or affects the right of the Corporation or any Subsidiary to increase or decrease the Grantee’s other
compensation. 
  

	4.	Manner of Exercise. 

 4.1 Method of Exercise of Option. 

The Corporation has established a web – based system for managing and exercising Options. Currently, UBS Financial Services, Inc. manages
Option exercises. In order to exercise an Option, the Grantee must contact UBS either by logging on to the UBS OneSource website (https://onesource.ubs.com/qlgc) or by calling the UBS Call Center at 1-866-756-4421. UBS will request from the
Grantee information regarding the Option to be exercised, the method of payment of the exercise price and the order type. In order to comply with the terms of the Plan, the Grantee also must deliver: 

 

	 	•	 	payment in full for the Exercise Price of the shares to be purchased in cash, check or by electronic funds transfer, or utilizing the UBS same day sale procedures; 


 

	 	•	 	any written statements or agreements required pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Plan; and 

  

	 	•	 	satisfaction of the tax withholding provisions of Section 8.5 of the Plan. 

 The Administrator also may,
but is not required to, authorize a non-cash payment alternative by notice and third party payment in such manner as may be authorized by the Administrator. For other methods of payment for exercise, contact the Administrator. 

The Option will qualify as an ISO only if it meets all of the applicable requirements of the Code. The Option may be rendered a nonqualified
stock option if the Administrator permits the use of one or more of the non-cash payment alternatives referenced above. 
 4.2
Responsibility for Taxes. The ultimate liability for any and all tax, social insurance and payroll tax withholding legally payable by an employee under applicable law (including without limitation laws of foreign jurisdictions)
(“Tax-Related Items”) is and remains 

  
 2 








 
Grantee’s responsibility and liability and the Corporation (a) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of
the Option, including the grant, vesting or exercise of the Option and the subsequent sale of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Option; and (b) does not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Option to reduce or
eliminate Grantee’s liability for Tax-Related Items. 
 Prior to exercise of the Option, Grantee shall pay or make adequate
arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator to satisfy all withholding obligations of the Corporation. In this regard, Grantee authorizes the Corporation to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by Grantee from his or her
wages or other cash compensation paid to Grantee by the Corporation or from proceeds of sale. Alternatively, or in addition, if permissible under local law, the Corporation may sell or arrange for the sale of shares of Common Stock that Grantee is
due to acquire to meet the minimum withholding obligations for Tax-Related Items. Finally, Grantee shall pay to the Corporation any amount of any Tax-Related Items that the Corporation may be required to withhold as a result of Grantee’s
participation in the Plan or Grantee’s purchase of shares of Common Stock that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. 
  

	5.	Early Termination of Option. 

 5.1 Expiration Date. Subject to
earlier termination as provided below in this Section 5, the Option will terminate ten years after the Award Date, including the Award Date (the “Expiration Date”). For example, if an Option is awarded on February 15, 2010,
assuming no earlier termination as set forth in this Section 5, the Option will terminate at the close of business on February 14, 2020.  

5.2 Possible Termination of Option upon Change in Control. The Option is subject to termination in connection with a Change in Control
Event or certain similar reorganization events as provided in Section 7.4 of the Plan. 
 5.3 Termination of Option upon a
Termination of Grantee’s Employment or Services. Subject to earlier termination on the Expiration Date of the Option or pursuant to Section 5.2 above, if the Grantee ceases to be employed by or ceases to provide services to the
Corporation or a Subsidiary, the following rules shall apply (the last day that the Grantee is employed by or provides services to the Corporation or a Subsidiary is referred to as the Grantee’s “Severance Date”):  

 

	 	•	 	other than as expressly provided below in this Section 5.3, (a) the Grantee will have until the date that is 3 months after his or her Severance Date (including the Severance Date) to exercise the Option (or
portion thereof) to the extent that it was vested on the Severance Date (e.g.—if the Severance Date was February 15, 2010, the three-month period would expire at the close of business on May 14, 2010) , (b) the Option, to the
extent not vested on the Severance Date, shall terminate on the Severance Date, and (c) the Option, to the extent exercisable for the 3-month period following the Severance Date and not exercised during such period, shall terminate at the close
of business on the last day of the 3-month period; 


  
 3 









	 	•	 	if the termination of the Grantee’s employment or services is the result of the Grantee’s death or Total Disability (as defined below), (a) the Grantee (or his or her beneficiary or personal
representative, as the case may be) will have until the date that is 12 months after the Grantee’s Severance Date (including the Severance Date) to exercise the Option (e.g. – if the Severance Date was February 15, 2010, the 12-month
period would expire at the close of business on February 14, 2011), (b) the Option, to the extent not vested on the Severance Date, shall terminate on the Severance Date, and (c) the Option, to the extent exercisable for the 12-month
period following the Severance Date and not exercised during such period, shall terminate at the close of business on the last day of the 12-month period; 

  

	 	•	 	if the Grantee’s employment or services are terminated by the Corporation or a Subsidiary for Cause (as defined below), the Option (whether vested or not) shall terminate on the Severance Date. 


For purposes of the Option, “Total Disability” means a “permanent and total disability” (within the meaning of
Section 22(e)(3) of the Code or as otherwise determined by the Administrator). 
 For purposes of the Option, “Cause”
means that the Grantee: 
  

	 	(1)	has been negligent in the discharge of his or her duties to the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, has refused to perform stated or assigned duties or is incompetent in or (other than by reason of a disability or
analogous condition) incapable of performing those duties; 

  

	 	(2)	has been dishonest or committed or engaged in an act of theft, embezzlement or fraud, a breach of confidentiality, an unauthorized disclosure or use of inside information, customer lists, trade secrets or other
confidential information; has breached a fiduciary duty, or willfully and materially violated any other duty, law, rule, regulation or policy of the Corporation, any of its Subsidiaries or any affiliate of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries;
or has been convicted of a felony or misdemeanor (other than minor traffic violations or similar offenses);

any of its Subsidiaries; has improperly induced a vendor or customer to break or terminate any contract with the Corporation, any of its Subsidiaries or any affiliate of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries; or has induced a principal for whom
the Corporation, any of its Subsidiaries or any affiliate of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries acts as agent to terminate such agency relationship. 


  
 4 








 In all events the Option is subject to earlier termination on the Expiration Date of the Option
or as contemplated by Section 5.2. The Administrator shall be the sole judge of whether the Grantee continues to render employment or services for purposes of this Option Agreement. 

Notwithstanding any post-termination exercise period provided for herein or in the Plan, the Option will qualify as an ISO only if it is
exercised within the applicable exercise periods for ISOs under, and meets all of the other requirements of, the Code. If the Option is not exercised within the applicable exercise periods for ISOs or does not meet such other requirements, the
Option will be rendered a nonqualified stock option. 
  

	6.	Non-Transferability. 

 The Option and any other rights of the Grantee under
this Option Agreement or the Plan are nontransferable and exercisable only by the Grantee, except as set forth in Section 5.7 of the Plan.

 Grantee explicitly and unambiguously consents to
the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Grantee’s personal data as described in this document by and among, as applicable, the Corporation, its Subsidiaries, or affiliates for the exclusive purpose of implementing,
