**RISK FACTORS** 

Investment in our Common Stock offered pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement involves risks. Before deciding whether to invest in our Common Stock, you should carefully consider the risk factors incorporated by reference to our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K, and all other information contained or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as updated by our subsequent filings under the Exchange Act, and the risk factors and other information contained in any applicable prospectus supplement. The occurrence of any of these risks might cause you to lose all or part of your investment in the offered securities. There may be other unknown or unpredictable economic, business, competitive, regulatory or other factors that could have material adverse effects on our future results. Past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be seriously harmed. This could cause the trading price of our Common Stock to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment. Please also carefully read the information included in the section titled "Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" or under similar headings included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K.

The selling stockholders will pay any underwriting fees, discounts and selling commissions incurred by the selling stockholders in connection with any sale of their shares. We will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the shares covered by this prospectus, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, NYSE listing fees and fees and expenses of counsel and independent registered public accountants.

------

**DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE** 

We cannot currently determine the price or prices at which the shares of Common Stock may be sold by the selling stockholders under this prospectus. It may be at prices that are higher, equal to or lower than the price at which the Common Stock is quoted and/or trading on the NYSE at the time of sale, and any sales of shares of Common Stock by the selling stockholders may cause the price of our shares of Common Stock to fluctuate significantly.

Our Common Stock is traded on the NYSE under the symbol "WOLF." On June 8, 2026, the closing price of our Common Stock on the NYSE was $55.42 per share.

------

**DIVIDEND POLICY** 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain any future earnings for use in the operation of our business and do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination to declare cash dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors, subject to applicable laws and will depend on a number of factors, including our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements, contractual restrictions, general business conditions and other factors our board of directors may deem relevant.

------

**BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF SECURITIES** 

The following table sets forth beneficial ownership of our Common Stock as of May 31, 2026 by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• each person who is known to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of shares of our Common Stock;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• each of our current named executive officers and directors; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• all current executive officers and directors as a group.

The information below is based on an aggregate of 51,972,101 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of May 31, 2026, which excludes shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Renesas Warrant and the conversion of the 2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes, the Renesas 2L Convertible Notes, and the 1.5L Convertible Notes. Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she, or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security, including warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days or convertible notes that are currently convertible or convertible within 60 days. Voting power represents the combined voting power of shares of Common Stock owned beneficially by such person. On all matters to be voted upon, holders of shares of Common Stock vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to the stockholders for their vote or approval. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to the stockholders for their vote or approval.

Unless otherwise indicated, we believe that all persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to the voting securities beneficially owned by them. Unless otherwise noted, all addresses are in care of the Company at 4600 Silicon Drive, Durham, NC 27703.

**DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK** 

The following description of our capital stock is not complete and may not contain all the information you should consider before investing in our capital stock. This description is summarized from, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws, which have been publicly filed with the SEC, and the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"). See the section titled "Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation by Reference."

**General** 

The certificate of incorporation provides that the Company's capital stock consists of 450,000,000 shares, all with a par value of $0.00125 per share, of which 350,000,000 shares are designated as common stock, and 100,000,000 shares are designated as preferred stock.

**Common Stock** 

***Voting Rights***

Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors. The Company's stockholders do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors.

In addition, the affirmative vote of holders of at least 60% of the voting power of all of the then outstanding voting stock is required to take certain actions, including (a) removing any director on the Company's board of directors, (b) adopting, amending or repealing the Company's bylaws and (c) amending, altering, repealing or rescinding provisions of the certificate of incorporation relating to (i) the Company's preferred stock, (ii) the Company's board of directors, (iii) meetings of the stockholders of the Company, (iv) the limitation of liability of the Company's directors and officers under the DGCL and certain other rights of indemnification and advance of expenses, (v) the choice of forum, (vi) provisions related to the applicability of the corporate opportunity doctrine and (vii) certain amendments to the certificate of incorporation.

***Dividends***

Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then outstanding preferred stock, holders of common stock are entitled to have equal rights of participation in any dividends that the board of directors may declare out of funds legally available.

***Liquidation***

In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all of debts and other liabilities, subject to the satisfaction of any liquidation preference granted to the holders of any then outstanding shares of preferred stock.

***Rights, Preferences and Privileges***

Holders of common stock have no preemptive, conversion or subscription rights, and there are no redemption or sinking-fund provisions applicable to common stock. The rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of preferred stock that the Company may designate and issue in the future.

------

**Preferred Stock** 

Under the certificate of incorporation, the board of directors have the authority, without further action by the stockholders, to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series, to establish from time to

time the number of shares to be included in each such series, to fix the rights, preferences and privileges of the shares of each wholly unissued series and any qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereon, and, subject to the requisite vote of the stockholders entitled to vote thereon (without a separate vote of the holders of the preferred stock or common stock voting as a separate class), to increase or decrease the number of shares of any such series, but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding.

The board of directors may authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of common stock. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could, among other things, have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company that may otherwise benefit holders of common stock and may adversely affect the market price of the common stock and the voting and other rights of the holders of common stock. The Company has no current plans to issue any shares of preferred stock.

**Anti-Takeover Provisions of Delaware Law and the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws** 

Some provisions of Delaware law, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws could make the following transactions more difficult: an acquisition of the Company by means of a tender offer; an acquisition of the Company by means of a proxy contest or otherwise; or the removal of incumbent officers and directors. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish or could deter transactions that stockholders may otherwise consider to be in their best interests or in the Company's best interests, including transactions which provide for payment of a premium over the market price for its shares.

These provisions, summarized below, are intended to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of the Company to first negotiate with the board of directors. The Company believes that the benefits of the increased protection of its potential ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure the Company outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging these proposals because negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

***Undesignated Preferred Stock***

The ability of the board of directors, without action by the stockholders, to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences as designated by the board of directors could impede the success of any attempt to change control of the Company. These and other provisions may have the effect of deferring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management of the Company.

***Stockholder Meetings***

The certificate of incorporation and the bylaws provide that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by the Company's board of directors, chairperson of the board of directors, chief executive officer or president.

***Requirements for Advance Notification of Stockholder Nominations and Proposals***

The bylaws establish advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals to be brought before a stockholder meeting and the nomination of candidates for election as directors, other than nominations made by or at the direction of the board of directors or a committee of the board of directors.

------

***Elimination of Stockholder Action by Written Consent***

The certificate of incorporation eliminates the right of stockholders to act by written consent without a meeting.

***Removal of Directors***

The certificate of incorporation provides that any member of the board of directors may be removed from office by stockholders, with or without cause, and, in addition to any other vote required by law, upon the approval of the holders of at least 60% in voting power of the outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote in the election of directors.

***Stockholders Not Entitled to Cumulative Voting***

The certificate of incorporation does not permit stockholders to cumulate their votes in the election of directors. Accordingly, the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors can elect all of the directors standing for election, if they choose, other than any directors that holders of preferred stock may be entitled to elect.

***Section 203 of the DGCL***

The Company is subject to Section 203 of the DGCL, which prohibits persons deemed to be "interested stockholders" from engaging in a "business combination" with a publicly held Delaware corporation for three years following the date these persons become interested stockholders unless the business combination is, or the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder was, approved in a prescribed manner or another prescribed exception applies. Generally, an "interested stockholder" is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status did own, 15% or more of a corporation's voting stock. Generally, a "business combination" includes a merger, asset or stock sale or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. The existence of this provision may have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions not approved in advance by the board of directors.

In accordance with Section 203 of the DGCL, by operation of the Plan and the approval of the Company's board of directors, the restrictions of Section 203 of the DGCL do not apply to stockholders that would become "interested stockholders" solely by virtue of receiving shares of common stock pursuant to the Plan.

***Choice of Forum***

------

***Amendment of Charter Provisions***

The affirmative vote of holders of at least 60% of the voting power of all of the then outstanding voting stock is required to amend, alter, repeal or rescind provisions of the certificate of incorporation relating to (i) the Company's preferred stock, (ii) the Company's board of directors, (iii) meetings of the stockholders of the Company, (iv) the limitation of liability of the Company's directors and officers under the DGCL and certain other rights of indemnification and advancement of expenses, (v) the choice of forum, (vi) provisions related to the applicability of the corporate opportunity doctrine and (vii) the foregoing requirement for the affirmative vote of at least 60% of the voting power of all of the then outstanding voting stock to amend, alter, repeal or rescind the foregoing provisions. All other amendments to the certificate of incorporation are subject to the vote required by applicable law, except that, unless otherwise required by law, holders of common stock shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to the certificate of incorporation relating solely to the rights, powers, preferences (or the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof) or other terms of one or more outstanding series of preferred stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon pursuant to this certificate of incorporation or the DGCL.

The provisions of Delaware law, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws could have the effect of discouraging others from attempting hostile takeovers and, as a consequence, they may also inhibit temporary fluctuations in the market price of common stock that often result from actual or rumored hostile takeover attempts. These provisions may also have the effect of preventing changes in the composition of the board and management. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish transactions that stockholders may otherwise deem to be in their best interests.

**Limitations on Liability and Indemnification Matters** 

The certificate of incorporation provides that no director or officer will be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or an officer, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL, as amended from time to time. Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director or an officer of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or an officer, except for liability for:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any breach of a director's or an officer's duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any act or omission not in good faith or which involved intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of
the DGCL;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any transaction from which a director or an officer derived an improper personal benefit; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• with respect to officers, any action by or in the right of the Company.

As a result, neither the Company nor its stockholders have the right, through stockholders' derivative suits on the Company's behalf, to recover monetary damages against a director or an officer for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, including breaches resulting from grossly negligent behavior, except in the situations described above.

The certificate of incorporation and the bylaws also provide that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify any officer or director of the Company against all damages, claims and liabilities arising out of the fact that the person is or was a director or officer, or served any other enterprise at the Company's request as a director or officer. Amending this provision will not reduce its indemnification obligations relating to actions taken before an amendment.

**New Senior Secured Notes** 

On June 30, 2025, the Company and Wolfspeed Texas LLC filed voluntary petitions commencing cases (the "Chapter 11 Cases") under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division to implement a prepackaged chapter 11 plan of reorganization (the "Plan"). On September 29, 2025 (the "Plan Effective Date"), the conditions to the effectiveness of the Plan were satisfied or waived and the Plan became effective. The Company emerged from the Chapter 11 Cases on September 29, 2025.

The Senior Notes bear interest, payable quarterly in arrears on March 23, June 23, September 23 and December 23 of each year, (a) for the period from the Plan Effective Date through and including June 22, 2026, at a rate of 9.875% per annum (payable in cash), plus 4.00% per annum (payable in-kind); and (b) for the period commencing on June 23, 2026 and at all times thereafter, (i) if the Interest Rate Step-Down Condition (as defined below) is satisfied as of June 23 of the most recent year, at a rate of 13.875% per annum (payable in cash) and (ii) if the Interest Rate Step-Down Condition is not satisfied as of June 23 of the most recent year, at a rate of 15.875% per annum (payable in cash). The "Interest Rate Step-Down Condition" is met if (a)(i) the Company redeems or repurchases (other than redemptions or repurchases with the proceeds of dispositions by the Company or any of its subsidiaries) the Senior Notes, resulting in an aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes outstanding being less than $1,000,000,000 and (ii) the Company receives at least $450,000,000 of award disbursements pursuant to governmental grants under the CHIPS and Science Act or (b) as of the most recent June 23, the ratio of the outstanding principal amount of the Senior Notes to EBITDA (as defined in the Indenture) for the most recently ended four fiscal quarter period for which financial statements have been or are required to have been delivered under the Indenture is less than or equal to 2.00:1.00. The Senior Notes will mature on June 23, 2030.

The Company is also required to offer to repurchase the Senior Notes upon a change in control, at a price equal to, (a) if such change of control occurs prior to June 23, 2026, the greater of (i) a customary make-whole redemption price minus 1.00% of the principal amount of such Senior Notes and (ii) the Applicable Redemption Price as of June 23, 2026 and (b) if such change of control occurs on or after June 23, 2026, the Applicable Redemption Price at the time such change of control occurs.

Further, the Company has the right, prior to June 23, 2026, to make an optional redemption of up to 35% of the Senior Notes with the cash proceeds of qualified equity issuances consummated since the Plan Effective Date (provided that the Company has received at least $300,000,000 of net cash proceeds from such equity issuances), at a redemption price equal to 111.875%.

The Indenture contains certain customary affirmative covenants, negative covenants and events of default, including a minimum liquidity financial covenant requiring the Company to have an aggregate amount of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents maintained in accounts over which the Collateral Agent has been granted a perfected first lien security interest of at least $350,000,000 as of the last day of any calendar month (the "Liquidity Covenant").

The obligations of the Company under the Indenture are guaranteed by the Company's material subsidiaries, if any, subject to certain exceptions, and are secured by a pledge (and, with respect to real property, a mortgage) of substantially all of the existing and future property and assets of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors (subject to certain exceptions), including a pledge of the capital stock of the subsidiaries of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors, subject to certain exceptions.

The Senior Notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold except pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

**2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes, Renesas 2L Convertible Notes and New 2L Takeback Notes** 

In accordance with the Plan, on the Plan Effective Date, holders of the Company's previously existing 1.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes"), 0.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028 (the "2028 Notes"), and 1.875% Convertible Senior Notes due 2029 (collectively, with the 2026 Notes and the 2028 Notes, the "Convertible Notes"), received their pro rata share of (i) rights to participate in the rights offering of new 2.5% Convertible Second-Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2031 (the "2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes") in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $180.675 million, which was fully backstopped by certain holders of the Company's previously existing Convertible Notes (who also purchased the remaining reserved $120.45 million 2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes issued in the rights offering, and for which such backstop parties received a premium reflected by the issuance of additional 2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $30.25 million), (ii) new 7.00%/12.00% Second Lien Senior Secured PIK Toggle

------

Notes due 2031 in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $296.4 million (the "New 2L Non-Convertible Notes") and (iii) 24,533,760 shares of Common Stock.

In addition, in accordance with the Plan, on the Plan Effective Date, Renesas received approximately $203.6 million aggregate principal amount of new 2.5% Convertible Second-Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2031 (the "Renesas 2L Convertible Notes," and together with the 2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes and the New 2L Non-Convertible Notes, the "2L Notes").

The 2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to that certain Indenture, dated as of the Plan Effective Date, between the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantor and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as the trustee and collateral agent (the "2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes Indenture"). The Renesas 2L Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to the Renesas 2L Convertible Notes Indenture. The New 2L Non-Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to that certain Indenture, dated as of the Plan Effective Date, between the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantor and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee and collateral agent (the "New 2L Non-Convertible Notes Indenture," and together with the 2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes Indenture and the Renesas 2L Convertible Notes Indenture, the "2L Indentures"). The 2L Notes were issued by the Company and are guaranteed by the Subsidiary Guarantor and all other subsidiaries of the Company, subject to certain exceptions specified in the 2L Indentures. The 2L Notes are secured on a second-lien basis by all assets of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors that secure the Senior Notes and the 1.5L Convertible Notes (as defined below). The 2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes and Renesas 2L Convertible Notes will be convertible into shares of the Company's Common Stock in accordance with, and subject to the conditions in, the 2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes Indenture and Renesas 2L Convertible Notes Indenture, respectively.

The 2L Notes bear interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year to the holders of record as of June 1 and December 1 of each year. Interest on the Renesas 2L Convertible Notes and the 2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes is required to be paid in cash; interest on the New 2L Non-Convertible Notes is permitted to be paid either in cash or in kind (at the Company's election), at an interest rate of 7.00% or 12.00%, respectively. The 2L Notes mature, in each case, on June 15, 2031.

Each of the Renesas 2L Convertible Notes and 2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes (collectively, the "2L Convertible Notes") are convertible pursuant to the terms of the Renesas 2L Convertible Notes Indenture and the 2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes Indenture, respectively. The Renesas 2L Convertible Notes are convertible at any time from and after September 29, 2025 until the fifth (5th) scheduled trading day immediately preceding September 29, 2027 (the "Conversion Expiration Date") and the 2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes are convertible at any time from and after September 29, 2025 until the fifth (5th) scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, in each case, subject to certain limitations and exceptions. The 2L Convertible Notes are convertible into cash, common stock of the Company or a combination thereof, at the Company's election. The 2L Convertible Notes will be entitled to customary anti-dilutive measures (including adjustments to the 2L Convertible Notes' conversion rates), as described in each of the indentures governing the 2L Convertible Notes.

Each of the New 2L Non-Convertible Notes and the Renesas 2L Convertible Notes are not permitted to be redeemed prior to September 29, 2027; the 2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes are not permitted to be redeemed prior to the date that is three (3) years following the Plan Effective Date. In the event of an optional redemption by the Company, holders will be entitled to a cash redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such note redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest (any such redemption, an "Optional Redemption").

The Company is required to offer to repurchase the 2L Notes upon a change of control and, in the case of (i) the 2L Convertible Notes, at a cash repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such note repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest and (ii) the 2L Non-Convertible Notes, at a cash repurchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of such note repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Following the Conversion Expiration Date and upon the occurrence of a change of control, the Renesas 2L Convertible Notes

------

will be entitled to a cash repurchase price consistent with that of the New 2L Non-Convertible Notes. Holders of the 2L Convertible Notes will be entitled to adjustments to the respective conversion rates with table make-whole in the event of a change of control or an Optional Redemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing (but subject to certain limitations described in the indentures governing the 2L Convertible Notes), holders of the 2L Convertible Notes are permitted to convert their notes (i) in lieu of redemption in the event of an Optional Redemption by the Company or (ii) upon the occurrence of a change of control. The Company is also required, subject to the terms of the Senior Notes and pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the indentures governing the 2L Notes, to make an offer to purchase the 2L Notes, on a pro rata basis, upon the occurrence of certain non-ordinary course asset sales and casualty events (subject to certain reinvestment rights described in the 2L Indentures).

The 2L Indentures contain certain customary affirmative covenants, negative covenants and events of default.

The obligations of the Company under the 2L Indentures are guaranteed by the Subsidiary Guarantor and will be guaranteed by the Company's material subsidiaries, if any, subject to certain exceptions, and are secured on a second-priority basis by liens on substantially all of the existing and future property and assets of the Company and the guarantors (subject to certain exceptions) that secure the Senior Notes.

The 2L Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold except pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

**1.5L Convertible Senior Secured Notes** 

On March 26, 2026, the Company issued $379,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 1.5L Convertible Notes in a private placement. The 1.5L Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to, and are governed by the 1.5L Indenture.

The 1.5L Convertible Notes are guaranteed on a senior basis by the Subsidiary Guarantor, and the 1.5L Convertible Notes and the related guarantee by the Subsidiary Guarantor are senior, secured obligations of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantor, secured by substantially all assets of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantor (the "Collateral"). The 1.5L Convertible Notes and related guarantee are effectively subordinated to all secured indebtedness of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantor that is secured by a lien on the Collateral that is senior or prior to the lien on the Collateral securing the 1.5L Convertible Notes (including obligations under the Company's Senior Notes) and are effectively senior to all indebtedness of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantor that is not secured by a lien on the Collateral, or that is secured by a lien ranking junior to the lien on the Collateral securing the 1.5L Convertible Notes (including the existing 2L Notes).

The 1.5L Convertible Notes bear cash interest at a rate of 3.5% per year. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on September 15, 2026. The 1.5L Convertible Notes mature on March 15, 2031, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted.

Noteholders have the right to convert their 1.5L Convertible Notes at any time at their election (subject to certain limitations) until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. The initial conversion rate for the 1.5L Convertible Notes is 49.6623 shares of Common Stock, per $1,000 principal amount of the 1.5L Convertible Notes (which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $20.14 per share of Common Stock, which represents a conversion premium of approximately 20.0% over the last reported sale price of $16.78 per share of Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on March 18, 2026), and is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. Conversions of the 1.5L Convertible Notes will be settled in cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof, at the Company's election.

------

If a "Fundamental Change" (as defined in the 1.5L Indenture) occurs, then, subject to limited exceptions, noteholders may require the Company to repurchase their 1.5L Convertible Notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the 1.5L Convertible Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the applicable repurchase date. The definition of "Fundamental Change" includes certain business combination transactions involving the Company and certain de-listing events with respect to the Common Stock.

The 1.5L Convertible Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, for cash at the Company's option at any time, and from time to time, on or after March 20, 2028, and on or before the 35th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of Common Stock exceeds 175% of the conversion price for a certain period of time if the redemption date occurs on or before March 19, 2029 and 130% of the conversion price for a certain period of time if the redemption occurs on or after March 20, 2029, in each case subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The redemption price will be equal to the principal amount of the 1.5L Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.

The 1.5L Convertible Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold except pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

**Intercreditor Agreements** 

In connection with the Company's entry into the Indenture and the 2L Indentures, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantor, as a grantor, and the trustees and the collateral agents under each of the Indenture and the 2L Indentures entered into that certain First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of the Plan Effective Date (the "First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement"), which sets forth the respective rights on the shared collateral between the noteholders under the Senior Notes, as first lien creditors, on the one hand, and the noteholders under the 2L Notes, as second lien creditors, on the other hand.

Additionally, in connection with the Company's entry into the 2L Indentures, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantor, as a grantor, and the trustees and the collateral agents under each of the 2L Indentures entered into the Equal Priority Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of the Plan Effective Date, which sets forth the respective rights on the shared collateral among the noteholders under the 2L Notes.

Additionally, in connection with the Company's entry into the 1.5L Indenture, the Company, the trustees and the collateral agents under the 1.5L Indenture and the Indenture entered into a First Lien/1.5 Lien Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of March 26, 2026, which sets forth the respective rights on the shared collateral between the noteholders under the 1.5L Convertible Notes, on the one hand, and the noteholders under the Senior Notes, on the other hand. Additionally, the Company, and the trustee and the collateral agent under the 1.5L Indenture entered into that certain Joinder Agreement, dated as of March 26, 2026, pursuant to which the collateral agent and trustee under the 1.5L Indenture joined the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement.

**SECURITIES ACT RESTRICTIONS ON RESALE OF COMMON STOCK** 

We cannot predict the effect, if any, future sales of shares of Common Stock, or the availability for future sale of shares of Common Stock, will have on the market price of shares of our Common Stock prevailing from time to time. The sale of substantial amounts of shares of our Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could harm the prevailing market price of shares of our Common Stock and could impair our future ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity or equity-related securities at a time and price that we deem appropriate.

Prior to the possible offer and resale by this prospectus, we have a total of 51,972,101 shares of our Common Stock outstanding as of May 31, 2026. Of these shares, all were issued in a transaction exempt from registration pursuant to Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code and, therefore, are freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act by persons other than our "affiliates," in each case as of May 31, 2026. Under the Securities Act, an "affiliate" of an issuer is a person that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with that issuer. The remaining shares of our Common Stock are "restricted securities," as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act ("Rule 144"), and may not be sold absent registration under the Securities Act or compliance with Rule 144 thereunder or in reliance on another exemption from registration.

Prior to the possible offer and resale of the securities offered by this prospectus, in addition to the 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants, which may be exercised at a price of $0.01, we also have (i) 22,025,971 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the 2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes issued and outstanding as of May 31, 2026, (ii) 11,096,247 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Renesas 2L Convertible Notes, (iii) 4,943,555 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Renesas Warrant, and (iv) 18,822,011 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the 1.5L Convertible Notes issued and outstanding as of May 31, 2026.

**Equity Plans** 

On November 7, 2025, we filed a registration statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act to register the offer and sale of all shares of Common Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable for shares of our Common Stock issuable under the 2025 Management Incentive Compensation Plan and the 2025 Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan. Common stock registered under such registration statement will be available for resale by nonaffiliates in the public market without restriction under the Securities Act and by affiliates in the public market subject to compliance with the resale provisions of Rule 144.

**Rule 144** 

Pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act ("Rule 144"), a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our Common Stock or our warrants for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been our affiliate at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale and (ii) we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale and have filed all required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the 12 months (or such shorter period as we were required to file reports) preceding the sale.

Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares of our Common Stock or our warrants for at least six months but who are our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 1% of the total number of shares of our common stock then outstanding; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the average weekly reported trading volume of our common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the
filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.

Sales by our affiliates under Rule 144 are also limited by manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us.

**PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION** 

We are registering the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable to the selling stockholders to permit the resale of such shares of Common Stock by the holder of such shares of Common Stock from time to time after the date of this prospectus. The selling stockholders may from time to time offer some or all of the shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus. To the extent required, this prospectus may be amended or supplemented from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution. The selling stockholders will not pay any of the costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the shares covered by this prospectus, but they will pay any and all selling commissions and similar charges attributable to sales of the shares. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of our Common Stock covered hereby. The selling stockholders may sell some or all of the shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus from time to time or may decide not to sell any of the shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus. The selling stockholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and size of each sale. Such sales may be made on one or more exchanges or in the over-the-counter market or otherwise, at prices, and under terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then-current market price or in negotiated transactions. The selling stockholders may dispose of their shares by one or more of, or a combination of, the following methods:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the securities may be listed or quoted at the
time of sale;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• in the over-the-counter market;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• distributions to members, partners, stockholders or other equityholders of the selling stockholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by such broker-dealer for its own account pursuant to this
prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• block trades in which the broker-dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and
resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an over-the-counter distribution
in accordance with the rules of the NYSE;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• through trading plans entered into by the selling stockholders pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, that are in place at the time of an offering pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement that provide for periodic sales of their securities on the basis
of parameters described in such trading plans;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• to or through underwriters or broker-dealers, who may act as principals or agents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• in "at the market" offerings, as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, at negotiated prices,
at prices prevailing at the time of sale, or at prices related to such prevailing market prices, including sales made directly on a national securities exchange or sales made through a market maker other than on an exchange or other similar
offerings through sales agents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• in privately negotiated transactions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an exchange distribution and/or secondary distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• in options transactions, whether such options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• short sales and settlement of short sales;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• broker-dealers may agree with the selling securityholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a
stipulated price per share;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• through a combination of any of the above methods of sale; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

In addition, any shares that qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus. A selling stockholder that is an entity may elect to make an in-kind distribution of Common Stock to its members, partners, stockholders or other equityholders pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. To the extent that such members, partners, stockholders or other equityholders are not affiliates of ours, such members, partners, stockholders or other equityholders would thereby receive freely tradable shares of Common Stock pursuant to a distribution pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

The selling stockholders also may sell, donate, distribute, pledge, assign or otherwise transfer (i) shares of Common Stock registered hereunder, (ii) shares of Common Stock acquired through the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants (the "Warrant Shares") or the conversion of the 1.5L Convertible Notes (the "Note Shares") or (iii) the Pre-Funded Warrants or the 1.5L Convertible Notes, in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees, assignees or other successors in interest will be "selling stockholders" for purposes of this prospectus with respect to such shares of Common Stock (including (x) any shares of Common Stock registered hereunder, Warrant Shares or Note Shares received from such selling stockholder, (y) any Warrant Shares acquired through the exercise of any Pre-Funded Warrants received from such selling stockholder and (z) any Note Shares acquired through the conversion of any 1.5L Convertible Notes received from such selling stockholder). Each transferee, donee, pledgee, assignee or other successor in interest will be required to be identified as a selling stockholder in a prospectus supplement or other filing incorporated by reference into this prospectus, to the extent required by applicable law, prior to any resale of such securities pursuant to this prospectus.

To the extent required, this prospectus may be amended or supplemented from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution. In connection with distributions of the shares or otherwise, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions. In connection with such transactions, broker-dealers or other financial institutions may engage in short sales of shares of Common Stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume with the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of common stock short and redeliver the shares to close out such short positions. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions that require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as amended or supplemented to reflect such transaction). The selling stockholders may also pledge shares to a broker-dealer or other financial institution, and, upon a default, such broker-dealer or other financial institution may effect sales of the pledged shares pursuant to this prospectus (as amended or supplemented to reflect such transaction).

The selling stockholders may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. In connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell securities covered by this prospectus, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by the selling stockholders or borrowed from the selling stockholders or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of stock and may use securities received from the selling stockholders in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of stock. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment. In addition, the selling stockholders may otherwise loan or pledge securities to a financial institution or other third party that in turn may sell the securities short using this prospectus. Such financial institution or other third party may transfer its economic short position to investors in our securities or in connection with a concurrent offering of other securities.

In effecting sales, broker-dealers or agents engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate. Broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions, discounts or concessions from the selling stockholders in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale.

------

In offering the shares covered by this prospectus, the selling stockholders and any broker-dealers who execute sales for the selling stockholders may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. Any profits realized by the selling stockholders and the compensation of any broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions.

In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the shares must be sold in such jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states the shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

We have agreed to indemnify certain selling stockholders and certain other persons against certain liabilities in connection with the offering of the shares offered hereby, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act or, if such indemnity is unavailable, to contribute amounts required to be paid in respect of such liabilities. The selling stockholders have agreed to indemnify us against liabilities under the Securities Act that may arise from certain written information furnished to us by the selling stockholders specifically for use in this prospectus or, if such indemnity is unavailable, to contribute amounts required to be paid in respect of such liabilities.

We have advised the selling stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

At the time a particular offer of shares is made, if required, this prospectus or an amendment or any applicable prospectus supplement will be distributed that will set forth the number of shares being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name of any dealer or agent, any discount, commission, and other item constituting compensation, any discount, commission, or concession allowed or reallowed or paid to any dealer, and the proposed selling price to the public.

There can be no assurance that any selling stockholder will sell any or all of the shares of common stock registered pursuant to the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part. Once sold under the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, the shares of common stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

**Item 14.** **Indemnification of Directors and Officers.** <br>

Subsection (a) of Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, or the DGCL, empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or who is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person's conduct was unlawful.

Subsection (b) of Section 145 empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person acted in any of the capacities set forth above, against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

Section 145 further provides that to the extent a director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith; that indemnification provided for by Section 145 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled; and the indemnification provided for by Section 145 shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee

------

or agent and shall inure to the benefit of such person's heirs, executors and administrators. Section 145 also empowers the corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liabilities under Section 145.

Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL provides that a corporation's certificate of incorporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided that such provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

Any underwriting agreement or distribution agreement that the registrant enters into with any underwriters or agents involved in the offering or sale of any securities registered hereby may require such underwriters or dealers to indemnify the registrant, some or all of its directors and officers and its controlling persons, if any, for specified liabilities, which may include liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The certificate of incorporation of the Company provides that no director or officer will be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or an officer, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL, as amended from time to time. As a result, neither the Company nor its stockholders have the right, through stockholders' derivative suits on the Company's behalf, to recover monetary damages against a director or an officer for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, including breaches resulting from grossly negligent behavior, except in the situations described above.

The certificate of incorporation and the bylaws of the Company also provide that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify any officer or director of the Company against all damages, claims and liabilities arising out of the fact that the person is or was a director or officer, or served any other enterprise at the Company's request as a director or officer. Amending this provision will not reduce its indemnification obligations relating to actions taken before an amendment.

**Item 15.** **Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.** <br>

On September 29, 2025, in connection with the Company's emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company issued 25,840,656 shares of Common Stock, new senior secured notes due 2030 in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $1.26 billion, the 2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $301.125 million, the Renesas 2L Convertible Notes in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $203.6 million (together with the 2L Non-Renesas Convertible Notes, the "2L Convertible Notes"), the new 7.00%/12.00% Second Lien Senior Secured PIK Toggle Notes due 2031 in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $296.4 million and the Renesas Warrant to purchase 4,943,555 shares of Common Stock, with an exercise price of $23.95 per share, to Renesas.

------

exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance upon Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, Regulation D under the Securities Act and/or Regulation S under the Securities Act.

The foregoing transactions were or will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance upon Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder and/or Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act.

None of the foregoing transactions involved any underwriters, underwriting discounts or commissions or any public offering. All recipients had adequate access, through their relationships with us, to information about us. The sales of these securities were made without any general solicitation or advertising.

**Item 16.** **Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.** <br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Exhibits. See the exhibit index immediately preceding the signature pages hereto, which is incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Financial Statement Schedules. None.

**Item 17.** **Undertakings.** <br>

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows:

(a) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Re: <u>Wolfspeed, Inc. – Registration Statement on Form S-1</u>

To the addressee set forth above:

We have acted as special counsel to Wolfspeed, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "***Company***"), in connection with its filing on the date hereof with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "***Commission***") of a registration statement on Form S-1 (the "***Registration Statement***") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "***Act***"), relating to the registration of the offer and sale from time to time by the selling stockholders (the "***Selling Stockholders***") named or to be named in the Registration Statement or a related prospectus supplement of up to 24,072,041 shares of common stock, par value $0.00125 per share ("***Common Stock***"), consisting of (i) 3,250,030 shares of Common Stock held by certain Selling Stockholders (the "***Selling Stockholder Shares***"), (ii) 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of pre-funded warrants (the "***Warrants***") held by certain Selling Stockholders (the "***Warrant Shares***") and (iii) 18,822,011 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of 3.5% Convertible 1.5 Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2031 held by certain Selling Stockholders issued by the Company pursuant to an indenture, dated as of March 26, 2026, among the Company, Wolfspeed Texas LLC, as subsidiary guarantor, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as the trustee and collateral agent (the "***Indenture***") (the "***Convertible Note Shares***," and together with the Selling Stockholder Shares and the Warrant Shares, the "***Shares***").

This opinion is being furnished in connection with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Act, and no opinion is expressed herein as to any matter pertaining to the contents of the Registration Statement or related prospectus or prospectus supplement (collectively, the "***Prospectus***") other than as expressly stated herein with respect to the Shares.

As such counsel, we have examined such matters of fact and questions of law as we have considered appropriate for purposes of this letter. With your consent, we have relied upon certificates and other assurances of officers of the Company and others as to factual matters without having independently verified such factual matters. We are opining herein as to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "***DGCL***") and we express no opinion with respect to the applicability thereto, or the effect thereon, of the laws of any other jurisdiction or, in the case of Delaware, any other laws, or as to any matters of municipal law or the laws of any local agencies within any state.

------

**June 9, 2026** 

 **Page 2**![LOGO](g125615dsp44.jpg)

Subject to the foregoing and the other matters set forth herein, it is our opinion that, as of the date hereof:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. The Selling Stockholder Shares have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company and are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. When the Warrant Shares shall have been duly registered on the books of the transfer agent and registrar therefor in the name of or on behalf of the applicable Selling Stockholders and have been issued by the Company in the circumstances contemplated by and pursuant to the Warrants, the Warrant Shares will have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company and will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. When the Convertible Note Shares shall have been duly registered on the books of the transfer agent and registrar therefor in the name of or on behalf of the applicable Selling Stockholders and have been issued by the Company in the circumstances contemplated by and pursuant to the Indenture, the Convertible Note Shares will have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company and will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

In rendering the opinions set forth in paragraphs 2 and 3 above, we have assumed that (i) the Company will comply with all applicable notice requirements regarding uncertificated shares provided in the DGCL and (ii) upon the issuance of any of the Warrant Shares or the Convertible Note Shares, 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 its certificate of incorporation.

This opinion is for your benefit in connection with the Registration Statement and may be relied upon by you and by persons entitled to rely upon it pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Act. We consent to your filing this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the reference to our firm contained in the Prospectus under the heading "Legal Matters." In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.
