*Agreement and Plan of Merger*

On October 27, 2025, Skyworks Solutions, Inc. ("<u>Skyworks</u>") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "<u>Merger Agreement</u>"), by and among Skyworks, Qorvo, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("<u>Qorvo</u>"), Comet Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Skyworks ("<u>Merger Sub I</u>"), and Comet Acquisition II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Skyworks ("<u>Merger Sub II</u>"). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions specified therein, (i) Merger Sub I will merge with and into Qorvo (the "<u>First Merger</u>"), with Qorvo surviving the First Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Skyworks (the "<u>Surviving Corporation</u>"), and (ii) immediately following the First Merger, and as the second step in a single integrated transaction with the First Merger, the Surviving Corporation will merge with and into Merger Sub II (the "<u>Second Merger</u>," and together with the First Merger, the "<u>Mergers</u>"), with Merger Sub II continuing as the surviving entity in the Second Merger and a wholly owned subsidiary of Skyworks (the "<u>Surviving Company</u>"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings specified in the Merger Agreement.

Skyworks' Board of Directors (the "<u>Board</u>") has unanimously approved the Merger Agreement and, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Merger Agreement, resolved to recommend that Skyworks' stockholders approve the issuance of Common Stock, par value $0.25 per share, of Skyworks ("<u>Skyworks Common Stock</u>") pursuant to the Merger Agreement, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a).

*Merger Consideration*

At the effective time of the First Merger (the "<u>Effective Time</u>"), each share of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Qorvo ("<u>Qorvo Common Stock</u>") outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (subject to certain exceptions, including shares of Qorvo Common Stock owned by stockholders of Qorvo who have not voted in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and have properly exercised appraisal rights in accordance with Section 262 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "<u>DGCL</u>")) will be converted into the right to receive (i) 0.960 (the "<u>Exchange Ratio</u>") shares of Skyworks Common Stock, without interest, and (ii) $32.50 in cash, without interest (the "<u>Per Share Cash Amount</u>"), subject to applicable withholding taxes (the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the "<u>Merger Consideration</u>"). No fractional shares of Skyworks Common Stock will be issued in the Mergers, and Qorvo stockholders will receive cash in lieu of any fractional shares, as specified in the Merger Agreement.

If the Mergers are consummated, Qorvo Common Stock will be delisted from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("<u>Nasdaq</u>") and deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Exchange Ratio is expected to result in Qorvo equityholders and Skyworks equityholders owning approximately 37% and 63%, respectively, of the combined company on a pro forma basis following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the "<u>Closing</u>," and the date on which the Closing occurs, the "<u>Closing Date</u>").

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each Qorvo restricted stock unit ("<u>Qorvo RSU Award</u>") that is (i) vested but not yet settled as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) by its terms becomes vested as a result of the occurrence of the Closing or (iii) is held by a non-employee member of the Qorvo board of directors as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (collectively, the "<u>Accelerated Qorvo RSUs</u>"), shall be cancelled in consideration for the right to receive (A) the Merger Consideration in respect of each share of Qorvo Common Stock that was subject to such Accelerated Qorvo RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (B) an amount in cash equal to all dividend equivalents, if any, accrued but unpaid as of the Effective Time with respect to each such Accelerated Qorvo RSU. The number of shares of Qorvo Common Stock subject to any Accelerated Qorvo RSUs that remains subject to performance-based vesting conditions as of immediately prior to the Closing Date (i.e., any Qorvo RSU Award for which the level of performance vesting has not yet been determined) shall be determined by assuming, in respect of such Qorvo RSU Award, achievement at target performance, subject to certain exceptions for individuals for whom achievement will be assumed at the greater of target performance and actual performance as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, as of the Effective Time, each Qorvo RSU Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than an Accelerated Qorvo RSU, will be assumed by Skyworks and converted automatically into a restricted stock unit award covering shares of Skyworks Common Stock (each, an "<u>Adjusted RSU Award</u>"), on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the Qorvo RSU Award as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than performance-based vesting conditions, which shall not apply following the Effective Time, with dividend equivalents continuing to accrue in respect of such Adjusted RSU Awards and with all accrued dividend equivalents paid at such time as the Adjusted RSU Award is settled), except that the number of shares of Skyworks Common Stock subject to the Adjusted RSU Award as of the Effective Time will be determined by multiplying (i) the number of shares of Qorvo Common Stock subject to the corresponding Qorvo RSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (ii) the Conversion Ratio, with any fractional shares in the resulting product rounded to the nearest whole share. The number of shares of Qorvo Common Stock subject to any Qorvo RSU Award that remains subject to performance-based vesting conditions as of immediately prior to the Closing Date, including any accrued but unpaid dividend equivalents (i.e., any Qorvo RSU Award for which the level of performance vesting has not yet been determined), shall be determined by assuming, in respect of such Qorvo RSU Award, achievement at target performance, subject to certain exceptions for individuals for whom achievement will be assumed at the greater of target performance and actual performance as of immediately prior to the Effective Time. In the event of a termination of employment of any holder of an Adjusted RSU Award by Skyworks, the Surviving Company or one of their affiliates without "cause" or by such holder with "good reason" (as defined in the applicable Qorvo equity plan or equity award agreement), in each case within the 18-month period following the Closing Date, any such Adjusted RSU Awards held by such holder will accelerate and vest in full. The "Conversion Ratio" means an amount equal to the sum of (A) the Exchange Ratio, plus (B) the quotient obtained by dividing the Per Share Cash Amount by the "Skyworks Measurement Price," which is the volume weighted average trading price of Skyworks Common Stock on Nasdaq for the five consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding the Closing Date, as calculated by Bloomberg L.P.

*Governance*

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, immediately following the Effective Time, the Board will be comprised of 11 directors, consisting of (i) the Chief Executive Officer of Skyworks, who will be the Chief Executive Officer of Skyworks following the Closing, (ii) seven directors designated by Skyworks and (iii) three directors designated by Qorvo who are reasonably acceptable to Skyworks, each of whom will hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders of Skyworks. Promptly following the Closing, the Board will also designate a Chairman. Robert Bruggeworth, Qorvo's current President, Chief Executive Officer and director, will be one of Qorvo's designees upon the Closing.

*Closing Conditions*

Completion of the Mergers is subject to certain closing conditions, including (1) the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the holders of a majority of the shares of Qorvo Common Stock outstanding, (2) the expiration or early termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the approval of the Mergers under certain other antitrust and foreign investment regimes, (3) the absence of any order, injunction or law of such jurisdictions prohibiting the Mergers, (4) the effectiveness of the registration statement pursuant to which shares of Skyworks Common Stock to be issued in the Mergers will be registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "<u>SEC</u>"), (5) the approval of the issuance of shares of Skyworks Common Stock included in the Merger Consideration by a majority in voting power of Skyworks stockholders present at the Skyworks Stockholder Meeting and entitled to vote thereon, (6) the accuracy of the other party's representations and warranties, subject to certain standards set forth in the Merger Agreement, (7) compliance in all material respects with the other party's obligations under the Merger Agreement and (8) the absence of a continuing material adverse effect with respect to each of Skyworks and Qorvo. The parties anticipate the transaction to close early in calendar year 2027.

*Financing*

In connection with the Merger Agreement, Skyworks entered into a commitment letter, dated as of October 27, 2025, between Skyworks and Goldman Sachs Bank USA ("<u>Goldman Sachs</u>") (the "<u>Debt Commitment Letter</u>"), pursuant to which Goldman Sachs has agreed to provide, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, up to $3,050,000,000 of senior unsecured bridge term loans for the purpose of financing a portion of the cash portion of the Merger Consideration, paying related fees and expenses in connection with the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and, in certain circumstances, to refinance certain of Qorvo's senior notes. The receipt of financing by Skyworks is not a condition to Skyworks' obligation to consummate the Mergers.

*No Solicitation; Board Recommendation*

Each of Skyworks and Qorvo has also agreed not to (a) solicit proposals relating to alternative acquisition transactions or (b) enter into discussions or negotiations or provide non-public information in connection with any proposal for an alternative acquisition transaction from a third party, subject to certain exceptions to permit its respective board of directors to comply with its fiduciary obligations. Each party has further agreed to cease and cause to be terminated any existing discussions or negotiations, if any, with regard to alternative acquisition transactions. However, subject to the conditions specified in the Merger Agreement, prior to receipt of the requisite stockholder approval of each party, each party's respective board of directors may consider and ultimately change its recommendation with respect to, and may terminate the Merger Agreement in response to, an unsolicited, bona fide acquisition proposal that such board of directors determines in good faith constitutes a Superior Proposal, subject to customary match rights. Each party's board of directors may also change its recommendation in response to an Intervening Event.

*Termination and Fees*

The Merger Agreement may be terminated under certain circumstances, including (1) by either Skyworks or Qorvo if the Mergers are not completed by April 27, 2027, which date may be extended to July 27, 2027 and to October 27, 2027, in each case under certain circumstances (the "<u>Outside Date</u>"), (2) by either Skyworks or Qorvo if any specified governmental authority has issued a final non-appealable order or injunction prohibiting the Mergers, (3) by either Skyworks or Qorvo if either party fails to obtain the requisite approval of its stockholders, (4) by either Skyworks or Qorvo if the other party's board of directors changes its recommendation to its stockholders to vote in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement (in the case of Qorvo) or the issuance of Skyworks Common Stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement (in the case of Skyworks), (5) by either party in order to accept a Superior Proposal or (6) by either party if the other party materially breaches its covenants, or breaches its representations and warranties, in the Merger Agreement such that the applicable conditions to closing would not be satisfied, subject in certain cases to the right of the breaching party to cure the breach. Skyworks and Qorvo may also terminate the Merger Agreement by mutual written consent.

Upon termination of the Merger Agreement, each of Skyworks and Qorvo under specified circumstances, including termination by such party to accept a Superior Proposal or termination by the other party upon a change in such party's board of directors' recommendation to its stockholders, will be required to pay the other party a termination fee of $298,692,098. Additionally, Skyworks, under specified circumstances, including termination following an injunction arising in connection with certain antitrust or foreign investment laws, or failure to receive certain required regulatory approvals of specified governmental authorities by the Outside Date, will be required to pay Qorvo a termination fee of $100,000,000.

*Other Terms of the Merger Agreement*

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants made by each of the parties, including, among others, covenants regarding the conduct of Skyworks' and Qorvo's businesses during the pendency of the transaction, the making of certain public disclosures and other matters as described therein. The parties have agreed to use reasonable best efforts to take all actions necessary to consummate the Mergers, including cooperating to obtain the regulatory approvals necessary to complete the Mergers.

*Voting and Support Agreement*

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Skyworks and certain stockholders of Qorvo affiliated with Starboard Value ("<u>SBV</u>"), an affiliate of Peter Feld, a member of the board of directors of Qorvo so designated by SBV (each, a "Stockholder"), entered into a Voting and Support Agreement (the "<u>VSA</u>"), pursuant to which each Stockholder has agreed to vote its shares of Qorvo Common Stock in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, and to vote such shares against any competing acquisition proposal or any other action that would reasonably be expected to interfere with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. As of October 24, 2025, the Stockholders collectively held approximately 8% of Qorvo's issued and outstanding shares.

Each Stockholder has also agreed, prior to the earliest to occur of (i) the Effective Time, (ii) the termination of the Merger Agreement, (iii) the date of any Qorvo Triggering Event or Skyworks Triggering Event, (iv) the mutual written consent of Skyworks, Qorvo and the applicable Stockholder, (v) the conclusion of the Qorvo stockholder meeting to adopt the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and (vi) nine months from the date of the VSA, not to sell or transfer its shares of Qorvo Common Stock, subject to certain exceptions as specified in the VSA, and has agreed to cease discussions regarding and not to solicit any competing acquisition proposal. The VSA will terminate, as to each Stockholder, upon the earliest to occur of (a) the Effective Time, (b) the termination of the Merger Agreement, (c) the date of any Qorvo Triggering Event or Skyworks Triggering Event and (d) the written consent of Skyworks, Qorvo and the applicable Stockholder.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter and the VSA does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1, the Debt Commitment Letter, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, and the VSA, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2, each of which is incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the Merger Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter and the VSA have been included to provide Skyworks stockholders and other security holders with information regarding their terms and are not intended to provide any factual information about Skyworks, Qorvo, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II or their respective affiliates. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter and the VSA have been made solely for purposes of the Merger Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter and the VSA, respectively, and as of specific dates; were made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter and the VSA, respectively; are not intended as statements of fact to be relied upon by Skyworks stockholders or other security holders, but rather as a way of allocating the risk between the parties in the event the statements therein prove to be inaccurate; have been modified or qualified by certain confidential disclosures that were made between the parties in connection with the negotiation of the Merger Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter and the VSA, which disclosures are not reflected in the Merger Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter and the VSA itself; may no longer be true as of a given date; and may apply standards of materiality in a way that is different from what may be viewed as material by Skyworks stockholders or other security holders. Skyworks stockholders and other security holders are not third-party beneficiaries under the Merger Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter or the VSA (except, following the Effective Time, with respect to Qorvo stockholders' right to receive the Merger Consideration and the right of holders of Qorvo equity awards to receive the consideration provided for such equity awards pursuant to the Merger Agreement) and should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of Skyworks, Qorvo, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II or their respective affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter and the VSA, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in Skyworks' public disclosures. Skyworks acknowledges that, notwithstanding the inclusion of the foregoing cautionary statements, it is responsible for considering whether additional specific disclosures of material information regarding material contractual provisions are required to make the statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K not misleading. The Merger Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter and the VSA should not be read alone but should instead be read in conjunction with the other information regarding the Merger Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter, the VSA, the Mergers, Skyworks, Qorvo, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II, their respective affiliates and their respective businesses, that will be contained in, or incorporated by reference into, the Proxy Statement that Skyworks and Qorvo will file, as well as in the Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other filings that Skyworks will make with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "<u>SEC</u>").

This communication is for informational purposes only and does not constitute, or form a part of, an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities or a solicitation of any vote or approval, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and otherwise in accordance with applicable law.

*Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements*

This document contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements are based on Skyworks' and Qorvo's current expectations, estimates and projections about the expected date of closing of the proposed transaction and the potential benefits thereof, their respective businesses and industries, management's beliefs and certain assumptions made by Skyworks and Qorvo, all of which are subject to change. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "believe," "could," "seek," "see," "will," "may," "would," "might," "potentially," "estimate," "continue," "expect," "target," similar expressions or the negatives of these words or other comparable terminology that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes. All forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control and are not guarantees of future results, such as statements about the consummation of the proposed transaction and the anticipated benefits thereof. These and other forward-looking statements, including the failure to consummate the proposed transaction or to make or take any filing or other action required to consummate the transaction on a timely matter or at all, are not guarantees of future results and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in such statements and, therefore, you should not place undue reliance on any such statements and caution must be exercised in relying on forward-looking statements. Important risk factors that may cause such a difference include, but are not limited to: (i) the completion of the proposed transaction on anticipated terms and timing, including obtaining shareholder and regulatory approvals, anticipated tax treatment, unforeseen liabilities, future capital expenditures, revenues, expenses, earnings, synergies, economic performance, indebtedness, financial condition, losses, future prospects, business and management strategies, expansion and growth of Qorvo's and Skyworks' businesses and other conditions to the completion of the proposed transaction; (ii) failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction, including as a result of delay in completing the transaction or integrating the businesses of Skyworks and Qorvo; (iii) Skyworks' and Qorvo's ability to implement their business strategies; (iv) pricing trends; (v) potential litigation relating to the proposed transaction that could be instituted against Skyworks, Qorvo or their respective directors; (vi) the risk that disruptions from the proposed transaction will harm Skyworks' or Qorvo's business, including current plans and operations; (vii) the ability of Skyworks or Qorvo to retain and hire key personnel; (viii) potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships resulting from the announcement, pendency or completion of the proposed transaction; (ix) uncertainty as to the long-term value of Skyworks' common stock; (x) legislative, regulatory and economic developments affecting Skyworks' and Qorvo's businesses; (xi) general economic and market developments and conditions; (xii) the evolving legal, regulatory and tax regimes under which Skyworks and Qorvo operate; (xiii) potential business uncertainty, including changes to existing business relationships, during the pendency of the proposed transaction that could affect Skyworks' or Qorvo's financial performance; (xiv) restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction that may impact Skyworks' or Qorvo's ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; (xv) unpredictability and severity of catastrophic events, including, but not limited to, acts of terrorism or outbreak of war or hostilities, as well as Skyworks' and Qorvo's response to any of the aforementioned factors; and (xvi) failure to receive the approval of the stockholders of Skyworks and Qorvo. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the proposed transaction, are more fully discussed in the proxy statement/prospectus to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the proposed transaction. While the list of factors presented here is, and the list of factors presented in the proxy statement/prospectus will be, considered representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward looking statements. Consequences of material differences in results as compared with those anticipated in the forward-looking statements could include, among other things, business disruption, operational problems, financial loss, legal liability to third parties and similar risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on Skyworks' or Qorvo's consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Neither Skyworks nor Qorvo assumes any obligation to publicly provide revisions or updates to any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, should circumstances change, except as otherwise required by securities and other applicable laws.

At the Effective Time: (i) except for shares of Qorvo Common Stock that continue to be held by a Subsidiary of the Surviving Corporation following the Effective Time in accordance with <u>Section 3.1(a)(i)</u>, all shares of Qorvo Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and all holders of certificates representing shares of Qorvo Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each such certificate, a "<u>Qorvo Stock Certificate</u>") or uncertificated shares of Qorvo Common Stock represented by book-entry positions (each such share, an "<u>Uncertificated Qorvo Share</u>") shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of Qorvo; and (ii) the stock transfer books of Qorvo shall be closed with respect to all shares of Qorvo Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. No further transfer of any such shares of Qorvo Common Stock shall be made on such stock transfer books after the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, a valid Qorvo Stock Certificate or Uncertificated Qorvo Share is presented to the Exchange Agent (as defined below) or to the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Company or Skyworks, such Qorvo Stock Certificate or Uncertificated Qorvo Share shall be cancelled and shall be exchanged as provided in <u>Section 3.3</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Dissenting Shares</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, shares of Qorvo Common Stock held by a holder who has made a proper demand for appraisal of such shares of Qorvo Common Stock in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL and who has otherwise complied with all applicable provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL (any such shares being referred to as "<u>Dissenting Shares</u>" until such time as such holder fails to perfect, validly withdraws its demand for, or otherwise loses such holder's appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL with respect to such shares) shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive Merger Consideration in accordance with <u>Section 3.1(a)(iii)</u>, but shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by the DGCL to a holder of Dissenting Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If any Dissenting Shares lose their status as such (through failure to perfect or otherwise), then, effective as of the later of the Effective Time and the date of loss of such status, such shares will be deemed automatically to have been converted into, and shall represent only, the right to receive Merger Consideration in accordance with <u>Section 3.1(a)(iii)</u>, without interest thereon, upon surrender of the Qorvo Stock Certificate representing such shares or, if such shares are Uncertificated Qorvo Shares, upon compliance with the procedures established by the Exchange Agent for the transfer of such Uncertificated Qorvo Shares, in each case in accordance with <u>Section 3.3</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Qorvo shall give Skyworks: (A) prompt notice of any demand for appraisal received by Qorvo prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the DGCL, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to Qorvo prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the DGCL and relating to any demand for appraisal; and (B) the opportunity to participate in (but not direct) all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument relating to any demand for appraisal. Qorvo shall not make any payment or settlement offer prior to the Effective Time with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument unless Skyworks has given its prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to such payment or settlement offer.

Section 3.2 <u>Treatment of Qorvo Equity Awards and Equity Plans</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Qorvo RSU Awards</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) At the Effective Time, each Qorvo RSU Award that is (A) vested but not yet settled as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, (B) by its terms becomes vested in all respects as a result of the occurrence of the Closing or (C) is held by a non-employee member of the Qorvo Board as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (collectively, the "<u>Accelerated Qorvo RSUs</u>"), shall be cancelled in consideration for the right to receive (1) the Merger Consideration in respect of each share of Qorvo Common Stock that was subject to such Accelerated Qorvo RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time and (2) an amount in cash equal to all dividend equivalents, if any, accrued but unpaid as of the Effective Time with respect to each such Accelerated Qorvo RSU (collectively, the "<u>Accelerated RSU Consideration</u>"). The number of shares of Qorvo Common Stock subject to any Accelerated Qorvo RSUs that remains subject to performance-based vesting conditions as of immediately prior to the Closing Date (i.e., any Qorvo RSU Award for which the level of performance vesting has not yet been determined) shall be determined by assuming, in respect of such Qorvo RSU Award, achievement at target performance (except that such number for each holder with an individual agreement as set forth on <u>Section 7.9(h)</u> of the Qorvo Disclosure Schedule (each, an "<u>Individual Agreement</u>") shall be determined by assuming achievement at the greater of (I) target performance and (II) actual performance as of immediately prior to the Effective Time as determined in good faith by the Compensation Committee of the Qorvo Board).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) At the Effective Time, each Qorvo RSU Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than an Accelerated Qorvo RSU, without any action on the part of Skyworks, Qorvo or the holder thereof, shall be assumed by Skyworks and converted automatically into and become a restricted stock unit award covering shares of Skyworks Common Stock (each, an "<u>Adjusted RSU Award</u>"), on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the Qorvo RSU Award as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (except as set forth in this <u>Section 3.2(a)(ii)</u> and other than performance-based vesting conditions, which shall not apply following the Effective Time, with dividend equivalents continuing to accrue in respect of such Adjusted RSU Awards and with all accrued dividend equivalents (whether accrued prior to, at or after the Effective Time) paid at the time that such Adjusted RSU Award is settled), except that the number of shares of Skyworks Common Stock subject to the Adjusted RSU Award as of the Effective Time will be determined by multiplying (A) the number of shares of Qorvo Common Stock subject to the corresponding Qorvo RSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time by (B) the Conversion Ratio, with any fractional shares in the resulting product rounded to the nearest whole share. The number of shares of Qorvo Common Stock subject to any Qorvo RSU Award that remains subject to performance-based vesting conditions as of immediately prior to the Closing Date, including any accrued but unpaid dividend equivalents thereon (i.e., any Qorvo RSU Award for which the level of performance vesting has not yet been determined), shall be determined by assuming, in respect of such Qorvo RSU Award, achievement at target performance (except that such number for each holder with an Individual Agreement shall be determined by assuming achievement at the greater of (1) target performance and (2) actual performance as of immediately prior to the Effective Time as determined in good faith by the Compensation Committee of the Qorvo Board). In the event of a termination of employment of any holder of an Adjusted RSU Award by Skyworks, the Surviving Company or one of their Affiliates without "cause" or by such holder with "good reason" (as defined in the applicable Qorvo Stock Plan or award agreement), in each case within the eighteen (18)-month period following the Closing Date, any such Adjusted RSU Award(s) held by such holder shall accelerate and vest in full. For the avoidance of doubt, any unpaid dividend equivalents accrued in respect of an Adjusted RSU Award shall be paid at such time as the Adjusted RSU Award vests and settles.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Qorvo ESPP</u>. Qorvo shall take the necessary actions with respect to the Qorvo ESPP so that: (i) any Offering Period or Purchase Period (as such terms are defined in the Qorvo ESPP) in effect as of the last payroll date occurring prior to the Closing shall be shortened by setting a new "Exercise Date" (within the meaning of the Qorvo ESPP) in respect of such Offering Period or Purchase Period, as applicable, that is no later than such payroll date (after crediting contributions for such payroll date) (the "<u>Offering Period End Date</u>") and, on the Offering Period End Date, each outstanding option or purchase right under the Qorvo ESPP shall be exercised; (ii) as of the Offering Period End Date, the Qorvo ESPP shall be suspended, and no offering periods or purchase periods shall be thereafter commenced and no further payroll deductions or other contributions shall be thereafter made or effected with respect to the Qorvo ESPP; and (iii) subject to the consummation of the Mergers, the Qorvo ESPP shall terminate, effective immediately prior to the Effective Time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Skyworks shall cause the Surviving Company to pay through the payroll system of the Surviving Company (to the extent applicable) the Accelerated RSU Consideration to each holder of a Accelerated Qorvo RSU, less any required withholding Taxes and without interest, within seven (7) Business Days following the Effective Time; <u>provided</u> that to the extent payment within such time or on such date would trigger a Tax or penalty under Section 409A of the Code, such payments shall be made on the earliest date that payment would not trigger such Tax or penalty. The aggregate amount required to be withheld in respect of Taxes in respect of the Accelerated RSU Consideration shall be applied first to reduce the aggregate Merger Consideration payable in shares of Skyworks Common Stock and then, only if and to the extent that such withholding amount exceeds such stock portion, to reduce the portion of the Merger Consideration that is payable in cash (if any). The number of shares of Skyworks Common Stock to be withheld shall be determined based on the closing price of a share of Skyworks Common Stock on the date of payment of such Accelerated RSU Consideration.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Prior to the Effective Time, the Qorvo Board (or, if applicable, any appropriate committee thereof) shall take, or cause to be taken, all reasonably necessary and appropriate action under the Qorvo Stock Plans (and the underlying grant, award or similar agreements) and Qorvo ESPP, including adopting resolutions providing for the treatment of the Qorvo RSU Awards and Qorvo ESPP as contemplated by this <u>Section 3.2</u>, to carry out the treatment of Qorvo RSU Awards and Qorvo ESPP contemplated by this <u>Section 3.2</u>.

Section 3.3 <u>Exchange of Shares and Certificates</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Exchange Agent</u>. Prior to the Effective Time, Skyworks shall designate an exchange agent (the "<u>Exchange Agent</u>") for the purpose of exchanging, in accordance with this <u>Article III</u>, Certificates and Book-Entry Shares (each, as defined below) for the Merger Consideration. In addition, at or prior to the Effective Time, Skyworks shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Exchange Agent for the benefit of the holders of shares of Qorvo Common Stock (i) cash and (ii) evidence of shares of Skyworks Common Stock, in amounts sufficient to deliver the Merger Consideration (such cash and shares, together with any dividends or distributions with respect thereto, hereinafter, the "<u>Exchange Fund</u>"). The Exchange Agent shall deliver the Merger Consideration to be issued pursuant to <u>Section 3.1</u> out of the Exchange Fund.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Exchange Procedures</u>. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing, the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of record of a certificate (a "<u>Certificate</u>") or book-entry share (a "<u>Book-Entry Share</u>") that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Qorvo Common Stock whose shares were converted into the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration, as applicable: (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent, and which shall be in such form and have such other provisions as determined by Skyworks); and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates and Book-Entry Shares in exchange for the applicable Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share, as applicable, for cancellation to the Exchange Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by Skyworks, together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor that amount of Merger Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of this <u>Article III</u>, and the Certificate or Book-Entry Share so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. If any portion of the applicable Merger Consideration is to be registered in the name of a person other than the person in whose name the applicable surrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share is registered, it shall be a condition to the registration of such Merger Consideration that the surrendered Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such delivery of the Merger Consideration shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other taxes required by reason of such registration in the name of a person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this <u>Section 3.3</u>, each Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the applicable Merger Consideration. No interest shall be paid or shall accrue for the benefit of holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares on the applicable Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares</u>. No dividends or other distributions with respect to Skyworks Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share with respect to any shares of Skyworks Common Stock represented thereby, and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares shall be paid to any such holder pursuant to <u>Section 3.3(e)</u>, in each case until the surrender of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share in accordance with this <u>Article III</u>. Subject to the effect of applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate or Book-Entry Share, there shall be paid to the holder of shares of Skyworks Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) at the time of such surrender, (A) the amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of Skyworks Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to <u>Section 3.3(e)</u> and (B) the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such shares of Skyworks Common Stock, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender and a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such shares of Skyworks Common Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>No Further Ownership Rights in Qorvo Common Stock</u>. All Merger Consideration issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with the terms of this <u>Article III</u> shall be deemed to have been issued and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Qorvo Common Stock theretofore represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation (or any register of members or similar of the Surviving Company) of the shares of Qorvo Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to Skyworks or the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this <u>Article III</u>, except as otherwise provided by law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Fractional Shares</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) No certificates representing fractional shares of Skyworks Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of Skyworks.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of shares of Qorvo Common Stock converted pursuant to the First Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Skyworks Common Stock (after taking into account all Certificates and Book-Entry Shares delivered by such holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash (without interest) in an amount equal to such fraction as determined below. As promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall determine the excess of (A) the number of full shares of Skyworks Common Stock delivered to the Exchange Agent by Skyworks for issuance to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares over (B) the aggregate number of full shares of Skyworks Common Stock to be distributed to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares (such excess being herein referred to as the "<u>Excess Shares</u>"). As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent, as agent for such holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, shall sell the Excess Shares at then prevailing prices on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("<u>Nasdaq</u>"), all in the manner provided herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) The sale of the Excess Shares by the Exchange Agent shall be executed on Nasdaq and shall be executed in round lots to the extent practicable. Until the net proceeds of any such sale or sales have been distributed to the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, the Exchange Agent shall hold such proceeds in trust for such holders. The net proceeds of any such sale or sales of Excess Shares to be distributed to the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be reduced by any and all commissions, transfer taxes and other out-of-pocket transaction costs, as well as any expenses, of the Exchange Agent incurred in connection with such sale or sales. The Exchange Agent shall determine the portion of such net proceeds to which each holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled, if any, by multiplying the amount of the aggregate net proceeds by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the fractional share interest to which such holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares is entitled (after taking into account all Certificates and Book-Entry Shares then held by such holder) and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of fractional share interests to which all holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are entitled. As soon as practicable after the determination of the amount of cash, if any, to be paid to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares with respect to any fractional share interests, the Exchange Agent shall promptly pay such amounts to such holders subject to and in accordance with this <u>Section 3.3(e)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Return of Merger Consideration</u>. Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to <u>Section 3.3(a)</u> that remains undistributed to the holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares for one year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Skyworks, upon demand, and any holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares who have not theretofore complied with this <u>Article III</u> shall thereafter be entitled to look only to Skyworks for payment of their claim for any Merger Consideration (including any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Skyworks Common Stock) and any dividends or distributions with respect to Skyworks Common Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>No Liability</u>. None of Skyworks, Qorvo, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II, the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any person in respect of any portion of the Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. If any Certificate or Book-Entry Share has not been surrendered prior to seven years after the Effective Time, or immediately prior to such earlier date on which any Merger Consideration (including any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Skyworks Common Stock) or any dividends or distributions with respect to Skyworks Common Stock in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Body, any such shares, cash, dividends or distributions in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Skyworks, free and clear of all claims or interests of any person previously entitled thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Investment of Merger Consideration</u>. The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by Skyworks; <u>provided</u>, that no losses on such investments shall affect the cash payable to former holders of shares of Qorvo Common Stock pursuant to this <u>Article III</u>. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Skyworks.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Withholding Rights</u>. Each of Skyworks, Qorvo, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II, the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Company and the Exchange Agent, and their respective agents, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any other applicable Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld or paid over to or deposited with the relevant Governmental Body, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) <u>Lost Certificates</u>. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Skyworks or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such person of a bond in such reasonable amount as Skyworks or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent shall deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration with respect to the shares of Qorvo Common Stock formerly represented thereby, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Skyworks Common Stock, and unpaid dividends and distributions on shares of Skyworks Common Stock deliverable in respect thereof, pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 3.4 <u>Certain Adjustments</u>. If between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Skyworks Common Stock or Qorvo Common Stock are changed into a different number of shares by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange of shares, dividend payable in stock or other securities or other similar transaction, the Exchange Ratio and, only in the event of any such reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange, dividend or similar transaction with respect to Qorvo Common Stock, the Per Share Cash Amount, and related provisions shall be appropriately adjusted to provide to the holders of Qorvo Common Stock or Qorvo RSU Awards the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange, dividend or other similar transaction. Nothing in this <u>Section 3.4</u> shall be construed to permit any party to take any action that is otherwise prohibited or restricted by any other provision of this Agreement.

Section 3.5 <u>Further Assurances</u>. At and after the Effective Time, the officers and directors or managers, as applicable, of Skyworks, the Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Company shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of Skyworks or Qorvo, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf thereof, any other actions and things necessary to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in Skyworks or the Surviving Company, as applicable, any and all right, title and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties or assets acquired or to be acquired by Skyworks or the Surviving Company, as applicable, as a result of, or in connection with, the Mergers.

Skyworks has also delivered to Qorvo a true, complete and fully executed copy of any fee letter with any Financing Source party to the Debt Commitment Letter (it being understood that any such fee letter provided to Qorvo shall be redacted in a customary manner solely with respect to the fees, pricing caps and certain economic terms (including economic flex terms), which redacted information does not adversely affect the amount, availability or conditionality of the funding of the Debt Financing thereunder) (any such fee letter, as may be amended, supplemented, replaced, substituted, terminated or otherwise modified or waived from time to time after the date hereof in compliance with <u>Section 7.16</u>, a "<u>Fee Letter</u>"; each such Fee Letter collectively with the Debt Commitment Letter, the "<u>Debt Financing Commitment</u>").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Assuming the Debt Financing is funded in accordance with the Debt Financing Commitment, the aggregate net proceeds from the Debt Financing, when funded in accordance with the Debt Financing Commitment, together with all other sources of cash available to Skyworks on the Closing Date, will be sufficient for the payment of all of its obligations under this Agreement and the Debt Financing Commitment, including the payment of the cash portion of the Merger Consideration, and all costs, fees and expenses of the Mergers payable by Skyworks, Merger Subs, the Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Company in connection with the Mergers, and any repayment or refinancing of indebtedness contemplated by this Agreement and the Debt Financing Commitment (collectively, the "<u>Financing Uses</u>").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) As of the date of this Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter and each Fee Letter are in full force and effect and have not been withdrawn, terminated or rescinded, or amended, restated or otherwise modified or waived in any respect, and no such amendment, restatement, modification, withdrawal, termination or rescission is contemplated or the subject of current discussions (other than any amendment, restatement, amendment and restatement, modification or supplement to the Debt Financing Commitment to add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, underwriters, syndication agents or similar entities that have not executed the Debt Commitment Letter or such Fee Letters as of the date of this Agreement). The Debt Commitment Letter and each Fee Letter are a legal, valid and binding obligation of Skyworks and, to the Knowledge of Skyworks, each of the other parties thereto, enforceable against Skyworks and, to the Knowledge of Skyworks, each of the other parties thereto in accordance with its terms, subject to the Enforceability Exceptions. There are no conditions precedent or other contingencies directly or indirectly related to the funding of the full amount (or any portion) of the Debt Financing at or prior to the Closing, other than as expressly set forth in the Debt Financing Commitment. As of the date of this Agreement, no event has occurred or circumstance exists that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, constitutes, or could constitute, a breach, default or failure to satisfy a condition under the Debt Financing Commitment by or on the part of Skyworks or, to Skyworks' Knowledge, any other party to the Debt Financing Commitment under the Debt Financing Commitment. As of the date of this Agreement, there are no side letters or other agreements, Contracts, arrangements or understandings of any kind (written or oral) directly or indirectly related to the Debt Financing or the Debt Financing Commitment except for customary engagement letters or non-disclosure agreements which do not impact the conditionality or amount of the Debt Financing. Skyworks has fully paid all commitment fees and other fees required to be paid on or prior to the date of this Agreement in connection with the Debt Financing. As of the date of this Agreement, Skyworks is not, and has no reason to be, aware of any fact, event or other occurrence that makes any of the representations or warranties in the Debt Financing Commitment inaccurate in any respect. As of the date of this Agreement, no Person that is a party to the Debt Financing Commitment has notified Skyworks (or any of its Affiliates or Representatives) of its intention to terminate any of its obligations under the Debt Financing Commitment or to not provide the Debt Financing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) As of the date of this Agreement, assuming the satisfaction of the conditions to Skyworks' obligations to consummate the Closing pursuant to <u>Article VIII</u>, Skyworks has no reason to believe that any of the conditions to the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitment will not be satisfied on or prior to the Closing Date or that the full amount of the Debt Financing required to satisfy the Financing Uses will not be made available to Skyworks on the Closing Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Skyworks and Merger Subs acknowledge and agree that their respective obligations hereunder are not conditioned in any manner whatsoever upon obtaining the Debt Financing or any other financing (including any Capital Markets Issuance) for, or related to, any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in <u>Section 7.4(b)</u>, Qorvo and Skyworks shall not be entitled to make a Change in Board Recommendation pursuant to <u>Section 7.4(b)(i)</u> and <u>Section 7.4(b)(ii)</u> unless: (A) Qorvo or Skyworks, as applicable, shall have first provided prior written notice at least four (4) Business Days prior to making a Change in Board Recommendation (the "<u>Notice Period</u>") to the other party of its intention to make a Change in Board Recommendation, which notice shall, if the basis for the proposed action by its board is an Intervening Event, contain a description of the Intervening Event giving rise to such proposed action or, if the basis for the proposed action by its board is a Superior Proposal, include the information with respect to such Superior Proposal that is specified in <u>Section 7.1(c)</u>, as well as a copy of such Superior Proposal (a "<u>Superior Proposal Notice</u>") (it being understood and agreed that the delivery of such notice shall not, in and of itself, be deemed to be a Change in Board Recommendation); (B) Qorvo or Skyworks, as applicable, shall, and shall cause its respective financial advisor and legal counsel to, during the Notice Period, negotiate with the other party (to the extent the other party desires to negotiate) in good faith to make such amendments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Acquisition Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal or so that the Intervening Event no longer forms the basis for its board to effect a Change in Board Recommendation, including providing the other party and its Representatives with an opportunity to make a presentation to its board regarding this agreement and any adjustments with respect thereto, if the other party, in its discretion, proposes to make such amendments and/or presentation (it being understood and agreed (x) that in the event that, after commencement of the Notice Period, there is any material revision to the terms of a Superior Proposal, including any revision in price, Qorvo or Skyworks, as applicable, will be required to deliver a new written notice to the other party and to comply with the requirements of this <u>Section 7.4(c)</u> with respect to such new written notice, and the Notice Period shall be extended, if applicable, to ensure that at least two (2) Business Days remain in the Notice Period subsequent to the time the party notifies the other party of any such material revision and (y) that there may be multiple extensions of the Notice Period); and (C) its board of directors (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside counsel), has in good faith reaffirmed its determination that the Intervening Event continues to form the basis for its board to effect a Change in Board Recommendation or the offer previously constituting a Superior Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal, as the case may be; <u>provided</u>, that neither the delivery of a Superior Proposal Notice nor any public announcement thereof that such party determines that it is required to make under applicable Law shall constitute a Change in Board Recommendation, unless and until it shall have failed promptly after the end of the Notice Period to publicly announce that it (A) was recommending the Transactions and (B) has determined that such other Acquisition Proposal (taking into account (1) any modifications or adjustments made to the Transactions and agreed to by the parties and (2) any modifications or adjustments made to such other Acquisition Proposal) is not a Superior Proposal and has publicly rejected such Superior Proposal.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Nothing in this Agreement, but subject to <u>Section 7.4(b)</u>, shall prohibit the Qorvo Board or the Skyworks Board from (i) taking and disclosing to their respective stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) under the Exchange Act or complying with the provisions of Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act, and (ii) making any disclosure to their respective stockholders that it determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that the failure to make such disclosure would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the board's fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Skyworks, including in its capacity as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub I and the sole member of Merger Sub II, shall take all actions necessary to (a) cause Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II and, after the Closing, the Surviving Company, to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the Mergers on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, (b) after the Effective Time, cause the Second Merger to occur and (c) ensure that each of Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II prior to the Effective Time shall not conduct any business, incur or guarantee any Indebtedness or make any investments, other than incident to its obligations under this Agreement, the Debt Financing Commitment, the definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including the Debt Financing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) upon becoming aware that any material representation or warranty made by it in this Agreement has become untrue or inaccurate, or of any material failure of such Person to comply with or satisfy any covenant or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement, in each case, such that any condition to the Mergers would reasonably be expected to fail to be satisfied; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that no such notification shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty of such party set forth herein or the conditions to the obligations of the other party to consummate the Mergers, or the remedies available to the parties hereto, and <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that failure to give any such notice under this <u>Section 7.5</u> shall not be treated as a breach of covenant for the purposes of <u>Section 8.2(a)</u>, <u>Section 8.3(a)</u>, <u>Section 9.1(h)</u> or <u>Section 9.1(i)</u> of this Agreement, as applicable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) to the extent Qorvo has Knowledge of such notice or communication or that Skyworks has Knowledge of such notice or communication, as the case may be, of any written communication from any Person alleging that the Consent of such Person is required in connection with the Mergers, and the failure to obtain such Consent would reasonably be expected to have a material impact on Qorvo and the Qorvo Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or Skyworks and the Skyworks Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or the Combined Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) of any material written communication from any Governmental Body related to the Mergers; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) of any proceedings commenced and served upon, or threatened in writing against, Qorvo or any Qorvo Subsidiaries, or Skyworks or any Skyworks Subsidiaries, that, if pending on the Agreement Date, would have been required to have been disclosed pursuant to any Section of this Agreement.

Nothing in this <u>Section 7.6</u> shall require Qorvo or Skyworks to: (1) permit any inspection, or to disclose any information, that in the reasonable judgment of such party, would reasonably be expected to: (A) violate any of its or its Affiliates' respective Contract obligations with respect to confidentiality; (B) result in a violation of applicable Law; or (C) result in loss of legal protection, including the attorney-client privilege and work product doctrine; or (2) take any actions otherwise permitted not to be taken pursuant to, or provide information (other than to the extent required by <u>Section 7.1</u>, Section 7.4<u>(b)</u> or Section 7.4<u>(c)</u>) from the Skyworks Board's or the Qorvo Board's deliberation or evaluation of the matters described in, clauses (iii) or (iv) of <u>Section 7.8</u>. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that Qorvo or Skyworks does not provide access or information in reliance on the immediately preceding sentence, it shall provide notice to the other party that it is withholding such access or information and, in the case of the foregoing clauses (A) or (B), shall use commercially reasonable efforts to communicate the applicable information in a way that would not violate the applicable Law or Contract.

Section 7.7 <u>Confidentiality</u>. Notwithstanding anything therein to the contrary, the Confidentiality Agreement, dated as of April 8, 2025, by and between Skyworks and Qorvo (the "<u>Confidentiality Agreement</u>"), other than the fourth paragraph thereof, shall be extended, as applicable, and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms until the earlier of (i) two years following the termination of this Agreement (except that the eighth paragraph thereof shall be extended only until the termination of this Agreement) and (ii) the Effective Time, at which time the Confidentiality Agreement shall automatically terminate without further action.

Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) each party may, without such consultation or consent, make any public statement in response to questions from the press, analysts, investors or those attending industry conferences and make internal announcements to employees, so long as such statements or announcements are consistent with (and not materially expansive of) previous press releases, public disclosures or public statements or announcements made jointly by the parties (or individually, if approved by the other party); (ii) either party may, without the prior consent of the other party, issue any such press release or make any such public announcement or statement as may be required by applicable Law or by Nasdaq if it first notifies and consults with the other party prior to issuing any such press release or making any such public announcement or statement; (iii) the parties need not consult with (or obtain the consent of) the other in connection with any press release, public statement or filing to be issued or made with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or any modification or withdrawal of their respective Board Recommendations in accordance with <u>Section 7.4</u>; and (iv) neither party need consult with (or obtain the consent of) the other party in connection with any press release, public statement or filing in connection with any Legal Proceeding between the parties related to this Agreement or any of the Transactions.

Section 7.9 <u>Employee Matters</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) For purposes of this <u>Section 7.9</u>, (i) the term "<u>Covered Employees</u>" means employees who are actively employed by Qorvo or its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Closing and who remain employed by Skyworks, the Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries immediately after the Closing; and (ii) the term "<u>Continuation Period</u>" means the period beginning at the Closing and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) During the Continuation Period, Skyworks shall, or shall cause a Subsidiary of Skyworks to, provide to each Covered Employee for so long as such Covered Employee remains employed by Skyworks or any of its Subsidiaries during the Continuation Period, (i) an annual base salary or base wage rate that is no less favorable than the annual base salary or base wage rate that was provided to the Covered Employee immediately prior to the Closing, (ii) a total annual target cash opportunity (i.e., inclusive of annual base salary or base wage rate and any applicable target annual cash bonus opportunity, and excluding any equity or equity-based compensation opportunity) that is no less favorable than the total annual target cash opportunity that was provided to the Covered Employee immediately prior to the Closing, (iii) severance pay and benefits at levels that are no less favorable than the greater of (x) the levels of such severance pay and benefits as in effect under the Qorvo Plans immediately prior to the Closing and (y) the levels of such severance pay and benefits applicable to similarly situated employees of Skyworks, and (iv) other employee benefits (other than defined benefit pension benefits, retiree health and insurance benefits, and equity and equity-related incentive compensation) that are substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to those provided to Covered Employees under the Qorvo Plans immediately prior to the Closing. Furthermore, it is Skyworks' present intention that, during the Continuation Period, it shall provide Covered Employees with annual long-term incentive compensation opportunities that are no less favorable than, at Skyworks' election, the long-term incentive compensation opportunities, if any, (x) provided to similarly situated employees of Skyworks or (y) provided to such Covered Employees immediately prior to the Closing; provided, that, with respect to any such annual long-term incentive compensation awarded to a Covered Employee during such Continuation Period, the terms set forth on <u>Section 7.9(b)</u> of the Qorvo Disclosure Schedules shall apply.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) In the event any Covered Employee first becomes eligible to participate under any employee benefit plan, program, policy, or arrangement of Skyworks or any of its Subsidiaries ("<u>Skyworks Plan</u>") following the Closing, Skyworks shall, or shall cause a Subsidiary of Skyworks to, use reasonable best efforts to (i) waive any preexisting condition exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to any Covered Employee under any Skyworks Plan providing medical, dental, or vision benefits to the same extent such limitation would have been waived or satisfied under the Qorvo Plan the Covered Employee participated in immediately prior to coverage under the Skyworks Plan; and (ii) provide each Covered Employee with credit for any copayments and deductibles paid under a Qorvo Plan prior to the Covered Employee's coverage under any corresponding Skyworks Plan during the plan year in which the Covered Employee first becomes eligible to participate in the applicable Skyworks Plan, to the same extent such credit was given under the employee benefit plan Covered Employee participated in immediately prior to coverage under the Skyworks Plan, in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements under the Skyworks Plan for the plan year in which the Covered Employee first becomes eligible to participate in such Skyworks Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) As of the Closing, Skyworks shall, or shall cause a Subsidiary of Skyworks to, use reasonable best efforts to recognize the service of each Covered Employee prior to the Closing to Qorvo (or any predecessor entities of Qorvo or any of the Qorvo Subsidiaries) for purposes of eligibility, vesting and level of benefits (but not for benefit accrual purposes under any defined benefit pension plan, eligibility for early retirement subsidies, eligibility for or benefits accruals under any retiree medical or insurance program or vesting of any equity or equity-related incentive compensation (except as required pursuant to this Agreement)) to the same extent as such Covered Employee received, immediately before the Closing, credit for such service under any similar Qorvo Plan in which such Covered Employee participated immediately prior to the Closing. In no event shall anything contained in this <u>Section 7.9</u> result in any duplication of benefits for the same period of service.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Unless otherwise requested in writing by Skyworks, the Qorvo Board (or the appropriate committee thereof) shall adopt resolutions and take such corporate action as is necessary to terminate any Qorvo Plan intended to qualify as a qualified cash or deferred arrangement under Section 401(k) of the Code (collectively, the "<u>Qorvo 401(k) Plans</u>"), effective no later than the day immediately prior to the Closing Date and, effective as of such date, no employee of Qorvo or any Qorvo Subsidiary shall have any right thereafter to contribute any amounts to the Qorvo 401(k) Plans. Qorvo shall provide Skyworks with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment, in advance of any such adoption or corporate action, on any such resolutions or corporation actions. If the Qorvo 401(k) Plans are terminated in accordance with this <u>Section 7.9(e)</u>, effective as of the Closing, Skyworks shall permit each Covered Employee who, as of immediately prior to the Closing, was eligible to participate in a Qorvo 401(k) Plan, to be eligible to participate in a Skyworks Plan intended to qualify as a qualified cash or deferred arrangement under Section 401(k) of the Code (the "<u>Skyworks 401(k) Plan</u>") effective as of, or as soon as administrative feasible following, the Closing Date, and Skyworks shall cause the Skyworks 401(k) Plan to accept the rollover of account balances (including, subject to the following sentence, the in-kind rollover of promissory notes evidencing outstanding participant loans that are not in default) from the applicable Qorvo 401(k) Plan to the Skyworks 401(k) Plan for each Covered Employee who elects such direct rollover in accordance with the terms of the Qorvo 401(k) Plan and the Code. Qorvo and Skyworks shall cooperate in good faith to work with the Qorvo 401(k) Plan and Skyworks 401(k) Plan recordkeepers to develop a process and procedure for effecting the in-kind direct rollover of promissory notes evidencing participant loans from the Qorvo 401(k) Plan to the Skyworks 401(k) Plan, and the obligation of the Skyworks 401(k) Plan to accept the direct rollover of loan promissory notes is conditioned on the development of a loan rollover process and procedure that is acceptable to the respective recordkeepers. In the event that a process and procedure acceptable to the Qorvo 401(k) Plan and Skyworks 401(k) Plan recordkeepers for effecting the in-kind rollover of loan promissory notes is agreed upon, Qorvo and Skyworks shall take any and all commercially reasonable actions needed to permit each Covered Employee with an outstanding loan balance under a Qorvo 401(k) Plan as of the Closing Date to continue to make scheduled loan payments to the Qorvo 401(k) Plan after the Closing, pending the distribution and in-kind rollover of such promissory notes evidencing such loans, so as to prevent, to the extent reasonably possible, a deemed distribution or loan offset with respect to such outstanding loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Prior to the Closing, Skyworks and Qorvo shall cooperate in timely satisfying any notice, information, consent, or consultation obligations, and other similar requirements in respect of any applicable Collective Bargaining Agreement, or in accordance with applicable Law, to any labor or trade union, works council, labor organization or similar employee representative that may be triggered by this Agreement or the Transactions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Prior to the Closing, Skyworks and Qorvo will each grant retention incentives to their respective key employees pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth on <u>Section 7.9(g)</u> of the Skyworks Disclosure Schedule and on <u>Section 7.9(g)</u> of the Qorvo Disclosure Schedule, respectively (the "<u>Skyworks Retention Terms</u>" and the "<u>Qorvo Retention Terms</u>," respectively), plan documents for which shall be adopted prior to the Closing in forms to be mutually agreed between Skyworks and Qorvo (the "<u>Skyworks Retention Plan</u>" and the "<u>Qorvo Retention Plan</u>," respectively, and, together, the "<u>Retention Plans</u>")). For the avoidance of doubt, in the event the Closing does not occur, Skyworks shall be solely liable for all costs and liabilities relating to the Skyworks Retention Plan and Qorvo shall be solely liable for all costs and liabilities relating to the Qorvo Retention Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Skyworks acknowledges and agrees that the Closing will constitute a "Change in Control" or "Change of Control" (or other similar phrase) within the meaning of each Qorvo Plan that contains change in control provisions. From and after the Closing, Skyworks shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, be bound by, honor and comply with the terms of each such Qorvo Plan containing provisions relating to a "Change in Control" or "Change of Control" (or other similar phrase). <u>Section 7.9(h)</u> of the Qorvo Disclosure Schedule sets forth a list of each Individual Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) This <u>Section 7.9</u> shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the parties hereto, and nothing in this <u>Section 7.9</u>, express or implied, (i) shall be construed to limit the right of Skyworks, Qorvo, or any of their respective Subsidiaries to amend, modify or terminate any Qorvo Service Provider Benefit Plan or Skyworks Service Provider Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan, program, policy, practice, agreement or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored, or maintained by any of them, (ii) shall be construed to require Skyworks, Qorvo, or any of their respective Subsidiaries to retain the employment of any particular Person for any fixed period of time following the Closing, (iii) shall be construed to establish, amend, or modify any benefit plan, program, policy, practice, agreement or arrangement or (iv) is intended to confer upon any Person (including employees, retirees, or dependents or beneficiaries of employees or retirees) any right as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement or any remedy of any nature whatsoever hereunder.

Section 7.10 <u>Director and Officer Matters</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) From the Effective Time until the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, Skyworks shall cause the Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Company to exculpate, indemnify and hold harmless (and shall also cause the Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Company to advance expenses as incurred), (i) to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, and (ii) in accordance with any indemnification agreements with Qorvo or any Qorvo Subsidiary in effect on the date of this Agreement, each present and former director and officer of Qorvo or any Qorvo Subsidiary (collectively, the "<u>Indemnified Persons</u>") against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or related to such Indemnified Persons' service as a director or officer of Qorvo or any Qorvo Subsidiary or services performed by such Persons at the request of Qorvo or any Qorvo Subsidiary at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, including with respect to (A) the Mergers and the other Transactions and (B) actions to enforce this <u>Section 7.10</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) All rights to indemnification, exculpation and advancement and reimbursement of expenses by Qorvo or any Qorvo Subsidiary existing in favor of the Indemnified Persons for their acts and omissions as directors and officers occurring prior to the Effective Time, as provided in Qorvo's or the applicable Qorvo Subsidiary's certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other similar organizational documents (as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) and as provided in those indemnification agreements between Qorvo or any Qorvo Subsidiary and such Indemnified Persons (as in effect as of the date of this Agreement), will survive the Mergers and continue in full force and effect (to the extent such rights to indemnification are available under and consistent with applicable law) for a period of six years following the date on which the Mergers become effective, and the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries will (and Skyworks will cause the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to) honor and fulfill, in all respects, the obligations of Qorvo or any Qorvo Subsidiary in respect of such rights of indemnification, exculpation and advancement and reimbursement of expenses. For a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, Skyworks and the Surviving Company shall maintain in effect the indemnification, exculpation and advancement of expenses provisions of Qorvo and the Qorvo Subsidiaries' certificates of incorporation, bylaws or similar organizational documents in effect as of the date of this Agreement and any indemnification agreements of Qorvo and the Qorvo Subsidiaries in effect as of the date of this Agreement, or provisions that are no less protective than such provisions or agreements, and shall not amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any individuals who at the Effective Time were current or former directors or officers of Qorvo and the Qorvo Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if any Indemnified Person notifies Skyworks on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Closing of a matter in respect of which such Indemnified Person intends to seek indemnification pursuant to this <u>Section 7.10</u>, the provisions of this <u>Section 7.10</u> shall continue in effect with respect to such matter until the final disposition of all claims, actions, investigations, suits and proceedings relating thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) From the date on which the Closing occurs until the sixth anniversary of such date, Skyworks shall cause the Surviving Company to maintain in effect, for the benefit of the Indemnified Persons with respect to their acts and omissions as directors and officers occurring prior to the Closing, the existing policy of directors' and officers' liability insurance maintained by Qorvo as of the date of this Agreement in the form made available to Skyworks (the "<u>Existing D&O Policy</u>"), except that: (i) Skyworks may substitute for the Existing D&O Policy a policy or policies of substantially comparable coverage, and in any event, coverage not less favorable in the aggregate than the existing policies of Qorvo and the Qorvo Subsidiaries; and (ii) Skyworks will not be required to pay annual premiums for the Existing D&O Policy (or for any substitute policies) in excess of 300% of the most recent annual premium paid prior to the date of this Agreement for the Existing D&O Policy (the "<u>Maximum Premium</u>"). If any future annual premiums for the Existing D&O Policy (or any substitute policy therefor) exceed the Maximum Premium in the aggregate, then Skyworks may reduce the amount of coverage of such Existing D&O Policy (or any substitute policy therefor) to the amount of coverage that can be obtained for a premium equal to the Maximum Premium. Skyworks shall cause the Surviving Company or, prior to the Effective Time, Qorvo shall have the right to purchase a pre-paid, non-cancellable "tail" policy on the Existing D&O Policy for a claims reporting or discovery period of six (6) years from the Closing Date and otherwise on terms and conditions that are no less favorable than the terms and conditions of the Existing D&O Policy; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Surviving Company shall not be obligated to, and Qorvo shall not (without the prior written consent of Skyworks), expend an amount for such "tail" policy in excess of the Maximum Premium. If such "tail" policy is purchased, Skyworks shall cause the Surviving Company to maintain such "tail" policy in full force and effect in lieu of all other obligations of the Surviving Company under the first sentence of this <u>Section 7.10(c)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The provisions of this <u>Section 7.10</u> shall survive consummation of the Mergers and are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Persons (and his or her heirs), who are intended third-party beneficiaries of this <u>Section 7.10</u> from and after the Effective Time.

Qorvo shall use commercially reasonable efforts (but which efforts shall not require Qorvo to commence any litigation or other adversarial proceeding against the lenders, arrangers or agents (or any other persons) under the Qorvo Credit Agreement), subject to the cooperation of the existing lenders, to obtain and deliver to Skyworks a customary payoff letter (the "<u>Qorvo Payoff Letter</u>") (in customary form and substance) at or prior to the Closing relating to the termination of the obligations under the Qorvo Credit Agreement and the payment of the total amount required to be paid to fully satisfy all principal, interest, fees, penalties, prepayment premiums and any other monetary obligations (other than customary breakage fees, expenses and/or contingent indemnification obligations not yet due) due and payable under and in connection with the Qorvo Credit Agreement as of the anticipated Closing Date and, the release of any related liens (if any); <u>provided</u> that this <u>clause (j)</u> shall not require Qorvo or any of its Subsidiaries to cause such repayment, release and termination and (ii) Qorvo shall cooperate with, and take all actions reasonably requested by, Skyworks in order to, prior to the Closing, assist Skyworks in (w) preparing and delivering one or more notices of redemption for the outstanding aggregate principal amount of one or more series of the outstanding notes of Qorvo (the "<u>Qorvo Notes</u>"), which notice of redemption shall be expressly conditioned on the occurrence of the Closing, in order to effect a redemption pursuant to the terms of the relevant indenture, (x) commencing one or more consent solicitations (including in connection with any exchange offer launched by Skyworks or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to the Qorvo Notes) to amend the indenture or indentures governing one or more series of Qorvo Notes then outstanding to remove or modify certain of the covenants contained therein, including, promptly following the expiration of any such consent solicitation and subject to the receipt of any requisite consents, executing one or more supplemental indentures to the relevant indenture to provide for such amendments to be effective (but which shall not be operative until the Closing), (y) preparing an offer to purchase for a Change of Control Offer (as defined in the relevant indenture for one or more series of Qorvo Notes), which offer shall be expressly conditioned on the occurrence of the Closing, and commencing one or more Change of Control Offers for one or more series of the Qorvo Notes then outstanding, pursuant to the terms of the relevant indenture, and (z) providing any other cooperation to facilitate the assumption, amendment, redemption, repurchase or repayment of the Qorvo Notes (including, if elected by Skyworks, the satisfaction and discharge of the relevant indenture), in each case conditioned on the occurrence of the Closing, including using reasonable best efforts to cause the trustee in respect of each series of the Qorvo Notes to cooperate with respect to any of the foregoing actions (including, promptly following the expiration of any consent solicitation and subject to receipt of any consents, executing one or more supplemental indentures to provide for the relevant amendments to the relevant indentures to be effective (but which shall not be operative until the Closing), in each case, other than the payment of funds by Qorvo or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with this <u>Section 7.16(j)</u>, including, trustee fees, any consent fee, redemption price or any payment in connection with a Change of Control (as defined in the relevant indenture) or satisfaction and discharge of any Qorvo Notes or related indenture, as applicable. If at any time prior to the completion of any action contemplated by this <u>Section 7.16(j)(ii)</u> any information in such documentation should be discovered by Qorvo or Skyworks that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to such documentation, so that such documentation shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other party, and an appropriate amendment or supplement prepared by Skyworks describing such information shall be disseminated by or on behalf of Skyworks (and if reasonably requested by Skyworks, by Qorvo) to the holders of the applicable series of Qorvo Notes and any other relevant parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, for all purposes of this Agreement (including the condition set forth in <u>Section 8.2(a)</u> and the provisions of <u>Section 9.1(h)</u>), Qorvo's obligations under this <u>Section 7.16</u> (but excluding <u>Section 7.16(j)(ii)</u>) shall be deemed satisfied unless (A) Qorvo has materially breached its obligations under this <u>Section 7.16</u>, (B) such material breach was the proximate cause of Skyworks' failure to receive any material portion of the proceeds of the Debt Financing and (C) Skyworks has notified Qorvo of such material breach in writing and provided a period of 15 days for such material breach to be cured (and such material breach has not been cured by the end of such 15-day period); <u>provided</u> that, if the Closing would otherwise occur within such 15-day period Qorvo's obligation to cure such material breach pursuant to this clause (l) shall be deemed satisfied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) Skyworks and Qorvo agree that, if in connection with Skyworks' (i) amendment, supplement, replacement, substitution, modification or waiver of any Debt Financing Commitment not prohibited by <u>Section 7.16(b)</u> or (ii) execution of an Alternative Financing or Capital Markets Issuance, the scope of the assistance required under this <u>Section 7.16</u> as compared to the assistance that would be required or expected to be required in connection with the Debt Financing Commitment in effect on the date of this Agreement and the related Debt Financing is changed or expanded, Qorvo and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to have complied with this <u>Section 7.16</u> for purposes of <u>Article VIII</u> and <u>Article IX</u> of this Agreement if Qorvo and its Subsidiaries have provided Skyworks with the assistance that would otherwise be required under this <u>Section 7.16</u> with respect to the Debt Financing Commitment in effect on the date of this Agreement and the related Debt Financing (but applied to the financing contemplated by such amended, supplemented, replaced, substituted, modified or waived Debt Financing Commitment or such Alternative Financing or Capital Markets Issuance, as applicable), in each case without giving effect to any such amendment, supplement, replacement, substitution, modification or waiver or Alternative Financing or Capital Markets Issuance, as applicable, to the extent that it provides for such additional or different requirements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) Skyworks agrees to provide Qorvo and its Representatives drafts of all financing documents and any materials that are to be presented during any meetings conducted in connection with the Debt Financings (including any Alternative Financing or Capital Markets Issuance) with a reasonable time to review and comment on such documents and materials, and Qorvo agrees to use reasonable best efforts to review all such offering documents and marketing materials and identify for Skyworks any information contained therein that it reasonably believes constitutes material non-public information with respect to Qorvo and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) ("<u>Identified MNPI</u>"). If Qorvo identifies any Identified MNPI, and such information is customarily included in such documents or marketing materials for debt financing of the type consistent with the Debt Financing, is reasonably requested by Skyworks to be included in the offering documents or marketing materials for the Debt Financing and does not include information as to which Qorvo reasonably objects ("<u>Acceptable MNPI</u>"), then Qorvo and Skyworks shall consult with one another to discuss the inclusion of any Acceptable MNPI in the offering documents and the filing by Qorvo of a Current Report on Form 8-K or other public dissemination of such Acceptable MNPI. Skyworks shall remove all such Identified MNPI that is not Acceptable MNPI from such offering documents and marketing materials upon reasonable request by Qorvo.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) With respect to the actions required by this <u>Section 7.16</u>, Qorvo shall not be required to make any representation, warranties or certifications as to which, after Qorvo's use of commercially reasonable efforts to cause such representation, warranty or certification to be true, Qorvo has in its good faith determined that such representation, warranty or certification is not true.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) In no event shall Skyworks or any of its Affiliates prohibit or seek to prohibit any commercial bank, investment bank or other potential provider of debt or equity financing, including the Financing Sources Related Parties, from providing financing or financial advisory services to any Person in connection with a transaction relating to Qorvo or any of its Subsidiaries.

In the event of the termination of this Agreement as provided in <u>Section 9.1</u>, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other party or parties specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination is made (other than pursuant to <u>Section 9.1(a)</u>), and this Agreement shall be of no further force or effect, and there shall be no damages or liability on the part of Skyworks or Qorvo or their respective directors, officers, employees, stockholders, Representatives, agents or advisors, other than, with respect to Skyworks and Qorvo, the obligations pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement and the Clean Room Agreement and the Joint Defense Agreement; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that (i) this <u>Section 9.2</u>, <u>Section 9.3</u> and <u>Article X</u> (and the Confidentiality Agreement, the Clean Room Agreement and the Joint Defense Agreement) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect and (ii) nothing herein shall relieve any party hereto from liability (including, pursuant to Section 261(a)(1) of the DGCL, but subject to the second sentence of <u>Section 10.4</u> (which second sentence of <u>Section 10.4</u> provides that "this Agreement is not intended, and shall not be deemed, to create any agreement of employment with any person, to confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns or to otherwise create any third-party beneficiary hereto"; and accordingly such second sentence of <u>Section 10.4</u> would prevent the stockholders themselves from bringing such a claim as a third party beneficiary), damages payable to Qorvo based on the loss of the right to receive the Merger Consideration that the Qorvo stockholders would have received if the Mergers were consummated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, which may be retained by Qorvo without distribution to its stockholders) as a result of fraud or the willful and material breach by such party of its representations, warranties, covenants, obligations or other agreements set forth in this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, "<u>willful and material breach</u>" means a material breach that is a consequence of an act undertaken by the breaching party with the knowledge that the taking of such act, or failure to act, would, or would be reasonably expected to, result in a material breach of this Agreement.

The Qorvo Termination Fee payable pursuant to this <u>Section 9.3(b)</u> shall be paid by wire transfer of same-day funds no later than the third (3rd) Business Day following termination pursuant to <u>Section 9.1(f)</u> at any time after the occurrence of any Qorvo Triggering Event and substantially concurrently with any termination pursuant to <u>Section 9.1(j)</u> or on the date Qorvo consummates a transaction requiring payment of the Qorvo Termination Fee pursuant to <u>Section 9.3(b)(iii)</u>.

The payment contemplated by this <u>Section 9.3(c)</u> shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Skyworks and shall be reduced by any amounts required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under applicable Law in respect of Taxes. Upon payment of such expenses, Qorvo shall have no further liability to Skyworks with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby other than any payments required to be made pursuant to <u>Section 9.3(b)</u> (it being understood that the amount of any such subsequent payment shall be reduced by the amount of any payments made by Qorvo pursuant to this <u>Section 9.3(c)</u>); <u>provided</u> that nothing herein shall release any party from liability for fraud or the willful and material breach by Qorvo of this Agreement.

The payment contemplated by this Section 9.3<u>(f)</u> shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Qorvo and shall be reduced by any amounts required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under applicable Law in respect of Taxes. Upon payment of such expenses, each of Skyworks, Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II shall have no further liability to Qorvo with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby other than any payments required to be made pursuant to <u>Section 9.3(d)</u> (it being understood that the amount of any such subsequent payment shall be reduced by the amount of any payments made by Skyworks pursuant to this <u>Section 9.3(f)</u>); <u>provided</u> that nothing herein shall release any party from liability for fraud or the willful and material breach by Skyworks of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) The parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this <u>Section 9.3</u> are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and constitute liquidated damages and not a penalty, and that, without these agreements, the parties would not have entered into this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, all payments under this <u>Section 9.3</u> (including the Qorvo Termination Fee, the Skyworks Termination Fee and the Reverse Termination Fee) shall be payable only once and not in duplication, even though the payments under this <u>Section 9.3</u> may be payable under one or more provisions hereof. If Qorvo or Skyworks, as applicable, fails promptly to pay the applicable payment under this <u>Section 9.3</u> when due and payable, and, in order to obtain such payment, Qorvo or Skyworks, as the case may be, commences an action or other proceeding that results in an award against Qorvo or Skyworks, as applicable, for such payment under this <u>Section 9.3</u>, Qorvo or Skyworks, as applicable, shall pay the other party's costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys' fees and expenses) in connection with such action or proceeding, together with interest on the amount of the payment due under this <u>Section 9.3</u> from the date such payment was required to be made until the date of payment at the prime lending rate as published in *The Wall Street Journal* in effect on the date such payment was required to be made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Without limiting the rights of Skyworks under the Debt Financing Commitment or the rights of any of Skyworks and its Subsidiaries under any Definitive Debt Financing Agreements, Qorvo agrees, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, that none of (i) the Financing Sources or (ii) any of their respective Affiliates or any of such Financing Sources' or their Affiliates' respective former, current or future general or limited partners, shareholders, managers, members, agents, officers, directors, employees, accountants, advisors or representatives or any of their respective successors or assigns (the Persons described in this clause "(ii)" being collectively referred to as the "<u>Financing Sources Related Parties</u>") shall have any liability or obligation to Qorvo or any of its stockholders, Affiliates, Representatives, current, former or future officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, stockholders, managers or members relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the Transactions (including the Debt Financing and Debt Financing Commitment), whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise.

You hereby authorize us to download copies of your trademark logos from your website and to post copies thereof and any Information Materials to a deal site on IntraLinks™, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other appropriate electronic platform chosen by the Arranger to be its electronic transmission system (an "<u>Electronic Platform</u>") established by the Arranger to syndicate the Bridge Facility (or either Tranche thereof), and to use your trademark logos on the Confidential Information Memorandum and other Information Materials or in any advertisements that any of us may place after the Closing Date in financial and other newspapers, journals, the internet or otherwise, at its own expense, describing its services to you hereunder, in each case, that are provided to you for prior review and to which you consent in writing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

You acknowledge that certain prospective Lenders (such Lenders, "<u>Public Lenders</u>"; all other prospective Lenders, "<u>Private Lenders</u>") may have personnel who do not wish to receive Private Lender Information (as defined below). You agree, at the request of the Arranger, to assist (and to use commercially reasonable efforts, to the extent practical and appropriate and in all instances subject to the limitations on your rights set forth in the Merger Agreement, to cause the Qorvo Business to assist) in the preparation of a version of the Information Materials consisting exclusively of information and documentation that is either (a) publicly available or (b) not material with respect to the Company, Qorvo or their respective subsidiaries, or any securities of any of the foregoing, for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (all such information and documentation being "<u>Public Lender Information</u>"; and any information and documentation that is not Public Lender Information is referred to herein as "<u>Private Lender Information</u>"). Before distribution of any Information Materials, to the extent requested by the Arranger, you agree to execute and deliver to the Arranger a customary authorization letter in which you authorize distribution of the Information Materials to the prospective Lenders, which shall include a customary representation by you as to the accuracy of the Information Materials and, in the case of Information Materials intended to contain solely Public Lender Information, a representation that such Information Materials do not contain any Private Lender Information (it being understood that the authorization letter provided by the Company shall, unless a customary authorization letter is provided by Qorvo, cover the Qorvo Business without any qualification as to knowledge). You further agree that each document to be disseminated by the Arranger to any prospective Lender in connection with the Bridge Facility will, at the request of the Arranger, be identified by you as either (i) containing Private Lender Information or (ii) containing solely Public Lender Information. You acknowledge that the following documents may be distributed to Public Lenders, unless you notify the Arranger promptly (including by e-mail) within a reasonable period of time prior to the intended distribution that any such document contains Private Lender Information (<u>provided</u> that each such document has been provided to you for review a reasonable period of time prior thereto): (A) drafts and final definitive documentation with respect to the Bridge Facility, (B) administrative materials prepared by the Arranger or the Administrative Agent for the prospective Lenders (such as a lender meeting invitation, bank allocation, if any, and funding and closing memoranda) and (C) notification of changes in the terms of the Bridge Facility. If you advise us in writing (including by email), within a reasonable period of time prior to distribution, that any of the foregoing should be disseminated only to Private Lenders, then Public Lenders will not receive such materials without your consent.

To ensure an orderly and successful syndication of the Bridge Facility (or either Tranche thereof), prior to the Syndication Date the Company and its subsidiaries will not, and the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts (to the extent not in contravention of the Merger Agreement) to ensure that the Qorvo Business does not, in each case, without the prior written consent of the Arranger (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), syndicate or issue, or announce the syndication or issuance of, any debt facility or any debt security of the Company, its subsidiaries or the Qorvo Business, including any renewals or refinancings of any existing debt facility or debt security, in each case, that would reasonably be expected to materially impair the general syndication of the Bridge Facility (or either Tranche thereof), other than (a) the Bridge Facility (or either Tranche thereof), (b) the Senior Notes, (c) the Existing Credit Agreement Amendment and any borrowings (including issuances of letters of credit) under the Existing Credit Agreement; <u>provided</u> that the aggregate principal amount thereof does not exceed US$1,000,000,000, (d) any intercompany indebtedness among the Company and/or its subsidiaries or among Qorvo and its subsidiaries, (e) capital leases, letters of credit, foreign subsidiary working capital facilities, purchase money and equipment financings, receivables financings, sale leaseback arrangements or other similar obligations, in each case, incurred in the ordinary course of business, (f) any indebtedness of the Qorvo Business permitted to be incurred by the Qorvo Business after the date hereof but prior to the Closing Date, or permitted to remain outstanding on the Closing Date, in each case, under the Merger Agreement, (g) any guarantees by the Company of indebtedness of Qorvo permitted to remain outstanding on the Closing Date, (h) any amendments or modifications (including any related exchange offer and/or consent solicitation) with respect to any indebtedness of Qorvo permitted to remain outstanding on the Closing Date, (i) other indebtedness to the extent the net cash proceeds of such debt are utilized to refinance any debt of the Company or its subsidiaries within six months of the maturity thereof and to pay any fees or other amounts in respect thereof or otherwise in connection therewith (including any prepayment or redemption premiums and accrued interest thereon), <u>provided</u> that such refinancing shall be managed or arranged in consultation and coordination with the Arranger and (j) other indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding US$100,000,000.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Commitment Letter, (a) without limiting the conditions expressly set forth in <u>Exhibit C</u> to this Commitment Letter or your obligations to assist with syndication efforts as set forth herein, it is understood that the Commitment Parties' commitments hereunder are not subject to or conditioned upon your compliance with this Section 3 or any syndication (or your assistance with respect to such syndication) of, or receipt of commitments in respect of, the Bridge Facility (or either Tranche thereof), and that none of the commencement or completion of the syndication of the Bridge Facility (or either Tranche thereof) nor the obtaining of updated or confirmed ratings as set forth above shall constitute a condition to the availability or funding of the Bridge Facility on the Closing Date and (b) notwithstanding our right to syndicate the Bridge Facility and to receive commitments with respect thereto, except (i) in respect of assignments of all or any portion of any Commitment Party's commitment hereunder in respect of the Bridge Facility (or either Tranche thereof) to a Permitted Lender that (A) is a lender under the Existing Credit Agreement, (B) has been agreed to by the Company and the Arranger in writing (including by email) to be a prospective Lender as part of the Syndication Plan, (C) becomes a party hereto pursuant to the applicable Joinder Documentation with the consent of the Company or (D) is a commercial or investment bank that, in the case of this clause (D), at the time of such assignment has corporate rating (however denominated) or senior unsecured, non-credit enhanced long-term indebtedness rating from S&P that is BBB- or higher or from Moody's that is Baa3 or higher (any person satisfying the requirements of clause (A), (B), (C) or (D) above being referred to as a "<u>Specified Permitted Lender</u>") and (ii) in respect of assignments between any Commitment Party and its affiliates as expressly provided in Section 9 hereof, (x) no Commitment Party shall be relieved, released or novated from its commitment hereunder (including its obligation to fund the Bridge Facility on the Closing Date) in connection with the syndication of the Bridge Facility (or either Tranche thereof) until after the funding of the Bridge Facility on the Closing Date has occurred, (y) no assignment or novation in connection with the syndication of the Bridge Facility (or either Tranche thereof) shall become effective, as between the Company and any Commitment Party, with respect to all or any portion of such Commitment Party's commitment hereunder until after the funding of the Bridge Facility on the Closing Date has occurred and (z) unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Company (in its sole discretion), each Commitment Party shall retain control over all of its rights and obligations with respect to its commitment hereunder, including all rights with respect to consents, modifications, waivers and amendments hereof, until after the funding of the Bridge Facility on the Closing Date has occurred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Information.</u> You hereby represent and warrant that (a) all written information, other than the Projections and other forward-looking information and other than information of a general economic or industry-specific nature (the "<u>Information</u>"), that has been or will be made available to any of the Commitment Parties or the Lenders by or on behalf of you or any of your subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder does not or will not, when furnished, taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made (in each case, after giving effect to all supplements and updates provided thereto); <u>provided</u> that, prior to the consummation of the Merger, with respect to any Information regarding the Qorvo Business, the foregoing representation and warranty is made only to your knowledge; and (b) the Projections or other forward-looking information that has been or will be furnished to any of the Commitment Parties or the Lenders by or on behalf of you or any of your subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that you believe to be reasonable at the time made and at the time the related Projections or other forward-looking information are so furnished (it being understood that the Projections or other forward-looking information are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are out of your control, that no assurance can be given that any particular projections will be realized, that the Projections or other forward-looking information is not a guarantee of financial performance and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ significantly from the projected results and such differences may be material). You agree that if, at any time prior to the later of the Closing Date and the Syndication Date, the representation and warranty in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect (prior to the consummation of the Merger, to your knowledge insofar as it applies to the information regarding the Qorvo Business) if the Information or the Projections were being furnished at such time and such representation and warranty were being made at such time, then you will promptly notify us and supplement (or, prior to the consummation of the Merger, with respect to information regarding the Qorvo Business, use commercially reasonably efforts (to the extent not in contravention of the Merger Agreement) to cause the Qorvo Business to supplement) the Information, the Projections or other forward-looking statements so that such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects (prior to the consummation of the Merger, to your knowledge insofar as it applies to the information regarding the Qorvo Business). In structuring, syndicating and arranging the Bridge Facility, we will be entitled to use and rely on the Information and the Projections without independent verification thereof, and you acknowledge and agree that we will have no obligation to conduct any independent evaluation or appraisal of your or your subsidiaries' assets or liabilities or the assets or liabilities of the Qorvo Business or any other person or to advise or opine on any solvency issues. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood that the Commitment Parties' commitments hereunder are not subject to or conditioned upon the accuracy of the representation and warranty set forth in this Section 4, and the accuracy of such representation and warranty does not constitute a condition to the availability of the Bridge Facility (or either Tranche thereof) on the Closing Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. <u>Fees</u>. As consideration for the Commitment Parties' commitments hereunder and the Arranger's agreement to perform the services described herein, you agree to pay the fees set forth in this Commitment Letter and in the arranger fee letter dated the date hereof (the "<u>Arranger Fee Letter</u>") and the administrative agent fee letter dated the date hereof (the "<u>Administrative Agent Fee Letter</u>" and, together with the Arranger Fee Letter, the "<u>Fee Letters</u>"), in each case, between Goldman Sachs and you, as and when provided therein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. <u>Conditions Precedent</u>. Each Commitment Party's commitment hereunder and agreements to perform the services described herein are subject solely to the satisfaction or waiver by each of the Commitment Parties of the conditions expressly set forth in <u>Exhibit C</u> hereto, it being understood and agreed that there are no conditions (implied or otherwise) to the Commitment Parties' commitments hereunder (including compliance with the terms of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters or the Bridge Credit Agreement or the accuracy of representations and warranties set forth herein or therein) other than those that are expressly set forth in <u>Exhibit C</u> hereto (and upon satisfaction or waiver of such conditions, the funding under the Bridge Facility on the Closing Date shall occur).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. <u>Limitation of Liability; Indemnification; Expenses</u>. It is agreed that (a) in no event shall any Commitment Party or any of its affiliates or any of the respective officers, directors, members, employees, agents, advisors, controlling persons and representatives of any of the foregoing (collectively, the "<u>Arranger-Related Persons</u>") or the Company or any of its affiliates, in each case, have any Liabilities (as defined below), on any theory of liability (whether in contract, in tort or otherwise), for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages incurred by the Company, its affiliates or its or their respective equity holders or creditors or by any Commitment Party or any of its affiliates, as applicable, in each case, arising out of, in connection with or as a result of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters, the Bridge Facility, the Bridge Credit Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any related transactions or its activities related to any of the foregoing, <u>provided</u> that the foregoing shall not limit the Company's or any of its affiliates' indemnity and reimbursement obligations set forth in this Commitment Letter, the Bridge Credit Agreement or in any other written agreements to which the Company or any such affiliate is a party, and (b) no Arranger-Related Person shall have any Liabilities, on any theory of liability (whether in contract, in tort or otherwise), arising from, or be responsible for, any damages arising from the use by others of any Information Materials or other materials (including any personal data) obtained through electronic telecommunications or other information transmission systems (including an Electronic Platform or otherwise via the internet), except, as to any Commitment Party, to the extent they are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Commitment Party or its Related Arranger Parties (as defined below). You and we agree, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to not assert any claims against any Arranger-Related Person or against you or your affiliates, as applicable, inconsistent with the foregoing. As used herein, the term "<u>Liabilities</u>" shall mean any losses, claims (including intraparty claims), demands, damages or liabilities of any kind; and the term "<u>Related Arranger Party</u>" means, with respect to any specified person, (i) any controlling person or controlled affiliate of such specified person, (ii) the respective officers, directors and employees of such specified person or any of its controlling persons or controlled affiliates and (iii) the respective agents of such specified person or any of its controlling persons or controlled affiliates, in the case of this clause (iii), acting at the instructions of such specified person or such controlling person or such controlled affiliate; <u>provided</u> that each reference to a controlled affiliate or controlling person in this definition pertains to a controlled affiliate or controlling person involved in the negotiation of this Commitment Letter or the syndication of the Bridge Facility.

You agree (a) to indemnify and hold harmless each Commitment Party and its affiliates and the respective officers, directors, members, employees, agents, advisors, controlling persons and representatives of any of the foregoing (collectively, the "<u>indemnified persons</u>") from and against any and all Liabilities and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses, joint or several, to which any indemnified person may become subject arising out of, in connection with or as a result of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters, the Bridge Facility, the use of the proceeds thereof, the Bridge Credit Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any related transaction or any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation, arbitration, administrative or regulatory action or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing (including with respect to enforcing the terms of this <u>Section 7</u>) (each, a "<u>Proceeding</u>"), regardless of whether commenced by the Company, Qorvo, any of their respective affiliates or any other person, or whether any indemnified person is a party thereto and/or whether based in contract, tort or any other theory, and to reimburse each indemnified person upon demand for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any of the foregoing (which legal expenses shall be limited to one firm of counsel for all the indemnified persons, taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, of a single firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) for all the indemnified persons, taken as a whole, and, solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional firm of counsel (and, if reasonably necessary, one additional firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction) to the affected indemnified persons that are similarly situated, taken as a whole); <u>provided</u> that the foregoing indemnity and expense reimbursement will not, as to any indemnified person, apply to any Liabilities or related expenses to the extent they are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (i) the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnified person or its Related Arranger Parties in performing the services that are the subject hereof or (ii) a material breach of the obligations of such indemnified person or its Related Arranger Parties under this Commitment Letter or the Bridge Credit Agreement; <u>provided further</u> that the foregoing indemnity will not apply to any Proceeding solely between or among indemnified persons (other than any Proceeding against any indemnified person in its capacity as the administrative agent, any other agent, an arranger, a bookrunner or similar role, in each case, acting in its capacity as, or fulfilling its role as, such) not arising from any act or omission by the Company or any of its affiliates; and (b) regardless of whether the transactions or borrowings contemplated by this Commitment Letter are consummated, to reimburse each Commitment Party and its affiliates promptly upon demand, for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, due diligence expenses, syndication expenses and reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) incurred in connection with the Bridge Facility and any related documentation (including the preparation of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters and the Bridge Credit Agreement) or the administration, amendment, modification or waiver thereof.

You shall not, without the prior written consent of the applicable Commitment Parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), effect any settlement of any Proceedings in respect of which indemnity has been or could have been sought hereunder by any indemnified person unless such settlement (a) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified person in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Commitment Parties from all Liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceedings and (b) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified person or any injunctive relief or other non-monetary remedy. You acknowledge that any failure to comply with your obligations under the preceding sentence may cause irreparable harm to the Commitment Parties and the other indemnified persons.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. <u>Absence of Fiduciary Relationship; Sharing Information; Affiliate Activities</u>. You acknowledge that each of us and our respective affiliates may be providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including, without limitation, financial advisory services) to other persons that have or may have interests conflicting with your interests with respect to the transactions described herein and otherwise. We will not use confidential information obtained from the Company, Qorvo or their respective subsidiaries in the course of the transactions contemplated hereby (and not otherwise in our or any of our affiliates' possession or publicly available) in connection with the performance by us of services for other companies, and we will not furnish any such information to other companies in the course of performing such services. You also acknowledge that we have no obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, or furnish to you, confidential information obtained by us or any of our affiliates from other persons.

You agree that each Commitment Party and any of its affiliates through which it will be acting will act under this Commitment Letter as independent contractors and that nothing in this Commitment Letter will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Commitment Party or any of its affiliates, on the one hand, and you, your affiliates or your or their equity holders, on the other hand. You acknowledge and agree that (a) the transactions contemplated by this Commitment Letter are arm's-length commercial transactions between the Commitment Parties and, if applicable, their respective affiliates, on the one hand, and you, on the other, (b) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transaction, each of the Commitment Parties and, if applicable, their respective affiliates are acting solely as a principal and have not been, are not and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary of you, your affiliates or your or their management or equityholders or any other person and (c) with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, the Commitment Parties and, if applicable, their respective affiliates have not assumed (i) an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of you or your affiliates (irrespective of whether any Commitment Party or any of its affiliates has advised or is currently advising you or your affiliates on other matters (which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes acting as a financial advisor to the Company or any of its affiliates in respect of any transaction related hereto)) or (ii) any other obligation except the obligations expressly set forth in this Commitment Letter. You further acknowledge and agree that (A) you are responsible for making your own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto, (B) you are capable of evaluating and understand and accept the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby, and none of the Commitment Parties or any of their respective affiliates shall have any responsibility or liability to you with respect thereto, and (C) the Commitment Parties and their respective affiliates are not advising you as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting, regulatory or any other matters in any jurisdiction, and you shall consult with your own advisors concerning such matters and you shall be responsible for making your own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby. Any review by any Commitment Party or any of its affiliates of the Company, its subsidiaries, the Qorvo Business, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed solely for the benefit of such Commitment Party and shall not be on behalf of the Company. The Company agrees that it will not claim that any Commitment Party or any of its affiliates has rendered any advisory services, or assert any claim against any Commitment Party or any of its affiliates based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Commitment Party or any of its affiliates in connection with this Commitment Letter and the transactions contemplated hereby or assert any claim based on any actual or potential conflict of interest that might be asserted to arise or result from the engagement of any Commitment Party or any of its affiliates acting as a financial advisor to the Company or any of its affiliates, on the one hand, and the engagement of the Commitment Parties (or any of them) hereunder and the transactions contemplated hereby, on the other hand.

You further agree that each Commitment Party, together with its affiliates, is a full service securities firm engaged in securities trading and brokerage activities as well as in providing investment banking and other financial services.

With respect to any securities and/or financial instruments so held by any of us, any of our respective affiliates or any of our or their customers, all rights in respect of such securities and financial instruments, including any voting rights, will be exercised by the holder of the rights, in its sole discretion.

The parties hereto acknowledge that an affiliate of Goldman Sachs has been retained by the Company as financial advisor (in such capacity, the "<u>Financial Advisor</u>") in connection with the Merger. The Company agrees not to assert any claim it might allege based on any actual or potential conflicts of interest that might be asserted to arise or result from such engagement of the Financial Advisor, on the one hand, and Goldman Sachs and its affiliates' relationships with the Company as described and referred to herein, on the other. Each person that becomes a party hereto pursuant to the Joinder Documentation acknowledges that (a) an affiliate of Goldman Sachs has been retained by the Company as the Financial Advisor and (b) such relationship does not create any fiduciary duties or responsibilities to such person on the part of Goldman Sachs or its affiliates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. <u>Assignments; Amendments; Governing Law, Waiver of Jury Trial</u>. No party to this Commitment Letter may assign this Commitment Letter or any commitments or agreements hereunder to any other person without the prior written consent of each of the other parties hereto (and any purported assignment without such consent will be null and void); <u>provided</u> that (a) each Commitment Party may assign its commitment hereunder in respect of the Bridge Facility (including in respect of either Tranche thereof) and its agreements hereunder, in whole or in part, (i) to any of its affiliates, <u>provided</u> that no Commitment Party shall be released from the portion of its commitment hereunder so assigned to the extent such affiliate fails to fund the portion of the commitment assigned to it on the Closing Date notwithstanding the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to funding set forth in <u>Exhibit C</u> hereto, and (ii) to any Permitted Lender that becomes party to this Commitment Letter pursuant to the Joinder Documentation as provided for in Section 3 above, and upon any such assignment, such Commitment Party will (in the case of this clause (ii), only to the extent consistent with the last paragraph of <u>Section 3</u> above) be released solely from that portion of its commitment (if applicable, in respect of such Tranche) and agreements that has been so assigned, and (b) any Commitment Party's agreements hereunder (other than the funding of its commitment) may be performed by or through its affiliates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Commitment Letter, Goldman Sachs may assign its commitments hereunder to Goldman Sachs Lending Partners LLC at any time without the consent of any other party, and such assignment shall relieve Goldman Sachs of its commitments and obligations hereunder.

The Applicable Margin will increase, in each Pricing Category, by 0.25% per annum on each of the 90th, 180th and 270th day after the Closing Date.

As used herein, "<u>Rating</u>" means, with respect to S&P, Moody's or Fitch, a public rating by such rating agency of the Company's senior unsecured non-credit enhanced long-term indebtedness for borrowed money, giving pro forma effect to the Transactions.

For purposes of the foregoing, (a) if any of S&P, Moody's or Fitch shall not have in effect a Rating (other than by reason of the circumstances referred to in the last sentence of this paragraph), (i) if only one rating agency shall not have in effect a Rating, the applicable Pricing Category shall be determined by reference to the remaining two effective Ratings, (ii) if two rating agencies shall not have in effect a Rating, one of such rating agencies shall be deemed to have in effect a Rating in Pricing Category 5 and the applicable Pricing Category shall be determined by reference to such deemed Rating and the remaining effective Rating and (iii) if no rating agency shall have in effect a Rating, then Pricing Category 5 shall apply, (b) if the Ratings in effect or deemed to be in effect shall fall within different Pricing Categories, then (i) if three Ratings are in effect, then either (x) if two of the three Ratings are in the same Pricing Category, such Pricing Category shall apply or (y) if all three of the Ratings are in different Pricing Categories, then the Pricing Category corresponding to the middle Rating shall apply and (ii) if only two Ratings are in effect or deemed to be in effect, the applicable Pricing Category shall be the Pricing Category in which the higher of the Ratings shall fall unless the Ratings differ by two or more Pricing Categories, in which case the applicable Pricing Category shall be the Pricing Category one level below that corresponding to the higher Rating and (c) if any Rating shall be changed (other than as a result of a change in the rating system of the applicable rating agency), such change shall be effective as of the date on which it is first publicly announced by the applicable rating agency making such change, irrespective of when notice of such change shall have been furnished by the Company to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. Each change in the Pricing Category for any Rating shall apply during the period commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change. If the rating system of any of Moody's, S&P or Fitch shall change, or if such rating agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations and corporate credit, the Company and the Bridge Required Lenders shall negotiate in good faith to amend the Pricing Grid to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of Ratings from such rating agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Rating used to determine the Applicable Margin shall be deemed to be that most recently in effect from such rating agency prior to such change or cessation.

**Transaction Details**

Under the terms of the agreement, Qorvo shareholders will receive $32.50 in cash and 0.960 of a Skyworks common share for each Qorvo share held at the close of the transaction, which implies a combined enterprise value of approximately $22 billion<sup>4</sup>.

Upon closing, Skyworks shareholders will own approximately 63 percent of the combined company, while Qorvo shareholders will own approximately 37 percent, on a fully-diluted basis. Phil Brace will serve as chief executive officer of the combined company; Bob Bruggeworth will join the Board of Directors of the combined company. The combined company's Board of Directors will comprise 11 directors, eight from Skyworks and three from Qorvo.

Skyworks plans to fund the cash portion of the transaction using a combination of cash on hand and additional financing. Skyworks has obtained debt financing commitments from Goldman Sachs Bank USA. The transaction is not subject to any financing conditions. The combined company's net leverage at closing is expected to be approximately 1.0x last-twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA<sup>5</sup>. This favorable capital structure will allow for continued investments in the business to drive shareholder value.

The Boards of Directors of both companies have unanimously approved the transaction, which is expected to close in early calendar year 2027, subject to the receipt of required regulatory approvals, approval of Skyworks shareholders and Qorvo shareholders and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.

**Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements**

This document contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements are based on Skyworks' and Qorvo's current expectations, estimates and projections about the expected date of closing of the proposed transaction and the potential benefits thereof, their respective businesses and industries, management's beliefs and certain assumptions made by Skyworks and Qorvo, all of which are subject to change. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "believe," "could," "seek," "see," "will," "may," "would," "might," "potentially," "estimate," "continue," "expect," "target," similar expressions or the negatives of these words or other comparable terminology that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes. All forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control and are not guarantees of future results, such as statements about the consummation of the proposed transaction and the anticipated benefits thereof. These and other forward-looking statements, including the failure to consummate the proposed transaction or to make or take any filing or other action required to consummate the transaction on a timely matter or at all, are not guarantees of future results and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in such statements and, therefore, you should not place undue reliance on any such statements and caution must be exercised in relying on forward-looking statements. Important risk factors that may cause such a difference include, but are not limited to: (i) the completion of the proposed transaction on anticipated terms and timing, including obtaining shareholder and regulatory approvals, anticipated tax treatment, unforeseen liabilities, future capital expenditures, revenues, expenses, earnings, synergies, economic performance, indebtedness, financial condition, losses, future prospects, business and management strategies, expansion and growth of Skyworks' and Qorvo's businesses and other conditions to the completion of the proposed transaction; (ii) failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction, including as a result of delay in completing the transaction or integrating the businesses of Skyworks and Qorvo; (iii) Skyworks' and Qorvo's ability to implement their business strategies; (iv) pricing trends; (v) potential litigation relating to the proposed transaction that could be instituted against Skyworks, Qorvo or their respective directors; (vi) the risk that disruptions from the proposed transaction will harm Skyworks' or Qorvo's business, including current plans and operations; (vii) the ability of Skyworks or Qorvo to retain and hire key personnel; (viii) potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships resulting from the announcement, pendency or completion of the proposed transaction; (ix) uncertainty as to the long-term value of Skyworks' common stock; (x) legislative, regulatory and economic developments affecting Skyworks' and Qorvo's businesses; (xi) general economic and market developments and conditions; (xii) the evolving legal, regulatory and tax regimes under which Skyworks and Qorvo operate; (xiii) potential business uncertainty, including changes to existing business relationships, during the pendency of the proposed transaction that could affect Skyworks' or Qorvo's financial performance; (xiv) restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction that may impact Skyworks' or Qorvo's ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; (xv) unpredictability and severity of catastrophic events, including, but not limited to, acts of terrorism or outbreak of war or hostilities, as well as Skyworks' and Qorvo's response to any of the aforementioned factors; and (xvi) failure to receive the approval of the stockholders of Skyworks and Qorvo. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the proposed transaction, are more fully discussed in the proxy statement/prospectus to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the proposed transaction. While the list of factors presented here is, and the list of factors presented in the proxy statement/prospectus will be, considered representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward looking statements. Consequences of material differences in results as compared with those anticipated in the forward-looking statements could include, among other things, business disruption, operational problems, financial loss, legal liability to third parties and similar risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on Skyworks' or Qorvo's consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Neither Skyworks nor Qorvo assumes any obligation to publicly provide revisions or updates to any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, should circumstances change, except as otherwise required by securities and other applicable laws.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

This communication also includes references to financial measures that are calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP financial measures include, but are not limited to, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP gross profit and gross margin, non-GAAP operating income and operating margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, and non-GAAP free cash flow and free cash flow margin. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adding to non-GAAP operating income, depreciation and amortization. Non-GAAP gross profit is calculated by excluding from GAAP gross profit, share-based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, settlements, gains, losses, and impairments, and restructuring and other charges. Non-GAAP operating income is calculated by excluding from GAAP operating income, share-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, settlements, gains, losses, and impairments, and restructuring-related charges. Non-GAAP net income and diluted earnings per share is calculated by excluding from GAAP net income and diluted earnings per share, share-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, settlements, gains, losses, and impairments, restructuring-related charges, and certain tax items. Non-GAAP free cash flow is calculated by deducting capital expenditures from GAAP net cash provided by operating activities. Any non-GAAP financial measures used in this presentation are in addition to, and should not be considered superior to, or a substitute for, financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and are subject to significant inherent limitations. The non-GAAP measures presented herein may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP measures presented by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income items are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures.
