 MINDSPEED TECHNOLOGIES, INC. 
 INDUCEMENT INCENTIVE PLAN 

RESTRICTED STOCK TERMS AND CONDITIONS 
 FOR INTERNATIONAL EMPLOYEES 
 In accordance with a determination of the
Board of Directors of Mindspeed Technologies, Inc., you have been awarded Restricted Stock subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s Inducement Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), these Restricted Stock Terms and Conditions and
any appendix to these Restricted Stock Terms and Conditions for your country of residence (together, the “Agreement”). Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Plan.

 The Restricted Stock has been granted to you upon the following terms and conditions: 

 

	1.	Earning of Restricted Stock 

 You shall be deemed to have earned the Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement on the earlier of: 
 (a) the vesting provisions as established in your Grant Letter; or 
 (b) your death
or Disability. 
  

	2.	Retention of Certificates for Restricted Stock and Dividends 

To facilitate implementation of the provisions of this Agreement, certificates for the Restricted Stock and any dividends
or distributions thereon or in respect thereof (“Dividends”), whether in cash or otherwise (including but not limited to additional shares of Stock, other securities of the Company or securities of another entity, any such shares or other
securities being collectively referred to herein as “Stock Dividends”) shall be delivered to and held by the Company, or shall be held in book-entry form subject to the Company’s instructions, until you shall have earned the
Restricted Stock in accordance with the provisions of Section 1, provided that unless you shall have earlier earned the Restricted Stock, the Restricted Stock will not be issued, and no Dividends will be paid or distributions made thereon prior
to thirty days after your hire date. Additionally, you agree to provide such other documents appropriate to effectuate the purpose and intent of this Agreement as the Company may reasonably request from time to time. 

	3.	Voting Rights 

 Notwithstanding the retention by the Company of certificates (or the right to give instructions with respect to shares of Stock held in book-entry form) for the Restricted Stock and any Stock Dividends,
you shall be entitled to vote the Restricted Stock and any Stock Dividends held by the Company in accordance with Section 2, unless and until such shares have been forfeited in accordance with Section 5. 

 

	4.	Delivery of Earned Restricted Stock 

 As promptly as practicable after you shall have been deemed to have earned the Restricted Stock in accordance with Section 1, the Company shall deliver to you (or in the event of your death, to your
estate or any person who acquires your interest in the Restricted Stock by bequest or inheritance) the Restricted Stock, together with any Dividends then held by the Company (or subject to its instructions). 

 

	5.	Forfeiture of Unearned Restricted Stock and Dividends 

 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (a) if at any time it shall become impossible for you to earn any of the Restricted Stock in accordance with this Agreement, or (b) unless
determined otherwise by the Committee, in the event of a Termination of Employment (as defined below), all unearned Restricted Stock, together with any Dividends thereon, shall be forfeited, and you shall have no further rights of any kind or nature
with respect thereto. Upon any such forfeiture, the unearned Restricted Stock theretofore issued, together with any Dividends thereon, shall be transferred to the Company. For purposes of this Section, “Termination of Employment” shall
mean your termination of your employment as an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any reason, or your employer (your “Employer”) terminating your employment for Cause (as defined in Section 15), provided that
(i) death, (ii) Disability, (iii) a transfer from the Company to a Subsidiary of the Company, whether or not incorporated, or vice versa, or from one Subsidiary of the Company to another and (iv) a leave of absence, duly
authorized in writing by the Company, shall not be deemed a Termination of Employment. 
  

	6.	Transferability 

 The Restricted Stock award is not transferable by you otherwise than (i) by will or by laws of descent and distribution, (ii) by gift to members of your immediate family, (iii) to a trust
established for the benefit of your immediate family members only, (iv) to a partnership in which your immediate family members are the only partners or (v) as otherwise determined by the Committee. For purposes of this plan,
“immediate family” shall mean your spouse and natural, 

 
adopted or step-children and grandchildren. Notwithstanding any transfer of the Restricted Stock award or portion thereof, the transferred Restricted Stock award shall continue to be subject to
the Plan and this Agreement’s terms and conditions as were applicable to you immediately prior to the transfer, as if the Restricted Stock award had not been transferred. 

 

	7.	Withholding 

 Regardless of any action the Company or your Employer takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related
Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility and that the Company and/or your Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the
treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock, including, but not limited to, the grant or vesting of the Restricted Stock, the subsequent sale of shares of Stock acquired under the Plan and the receipt of
any Dividends; and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock to reduce or eliminate my liability for Tax-Related Items. 

Prior to the relevant taxable event, you or such other person receiving the Restricted Stock and any Dividends shall pay
all Tax-Related Items if required to do so by the Company or shall make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or your Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or your Employer, at their
discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items legally payable by you and required to be withheld by the Company and/or your Employer by one or a combination of the following: (i) deducting from any payment
otherwise due by the Company or your Employer to you or any other person receiving delivery of the Restricted Stock and any Dividends; or (ii) withholding from proceeds of the sale of shares of Stock received under the Plan; or
(iii) arranging for the sale of shares of Stock received under the Plan and any Stock Dividends (on your behalf and at your direction pursuant to this authorization). 

Finally, you shall pay to the Company or your Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or your Employer
may be required to withhold or account for as a result of your participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to deliver the shares of Stock if you fail to comply with your obligations in
connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this section. 
  

	8.	Nature of Grant 

 In accepting the grant, you acknowledge that: 

 (i) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary
in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, unless otherwise provided in the Plan and this Agreement; 
 (ii) the grant of the Restricted Stock is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Restricted Stock, or benefits in lieu of Restricted Stock,
even if Restricted Stock has been granted repeatedly in the past; 
 (iii) all decisions with respect to future
Restricted Stock grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; 
 (iv) your participation in the
Plan shall not create a right to further employment with your Employer and shall not interfere with the ability of your Employer to terminate your employment relationship at any time; 

(v) you are voluntarily participating in the Plan; 

(vi) the Restricted Stock is an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any
kind rendered to the Company or your Employer, and which is outside the scope of your employment contract, if any; 
 (vii) the Restricted Stock is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end of
service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company or your Employer;

 (viii) in the event that you are not an employee of the Company, the Restricted Stock grant and your
participation in the Plan will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company; and furthermore, the Restricted Stock award will not be interpreted to form an employment contract with any Subsidiary of the Company;

 (ix) the future value of the Restricted Stock is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty; 

(x) the value of the shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock may increase or decrease in value;

 (xi) in consideration of the grant of the Restricted Stock, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages
shall arise from termination of the 

 
Restricted Stock or diminution in value of the Restricted Stock resulting from Termination of Employment by the Company or your Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of
local labor laws) and you irrevocably release the Company and your Employer from any such claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, then, by accepting the
grant of Restricted Stock, you shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived your entitlement to pursue such claim; 

(xii) in the event of your Termination of Employment (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), your right to vest in
the Restricted Stock under the Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of the date that you are no longer actively employed and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active employment would not include a
period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); the Board of Directors or Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when you are no longer actively employed for purposes of your Restricted Stock grant;

 (xiii) the Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any
recommendations regarding your participation in the Plan, or your acquisition or sale of the shares of Stock; and 
 (xiv) you are hereby advised to consult with your own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding your participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.

 APPENDIX 
 UNITED KINGDOM 
 MINDSPEED TECHNOLOGIES, INC. 

INDUCEMENT INCENTIVE PLAN 
 RESTRICTED STOCK TERMS AND CONDITIONS 
 FOR INTERNATIONAL EMPLOYEES

 This Appendix includes additional terms and conditions that govern the Restricted Stock granted to you if you reside in the United
Kingdom. Where there is any conflict between the terms and conditions set out in this Appendix and the general terms and conditions governing Restricted Stock awards made under the Mindspeed Technologies, Inc. Inducement Incentive Plan (the
“Plan”), the terms and conditions of this Appendix shall prevail. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Grant Letter, the Agreement or the Plan. 

This Appendix also includes information regarding exchange controls and certain other issues of which you should be aware with respect to your
participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in the United Kingdom as of May 2008. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends
that you not rely on the information noted herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of your participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time you are granted or vest in your Restricted
Stock or sell shares of Stock acquired under the Plan. 
 In addition, the information is general in nature and may not apply to your particular
situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure you of any particular result. Accordingly, you are advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in your country may apply to your situation. 

Finally, if you are a citizen or resident of a country, or are considered resident of a country, other than the one in which you are currently working,
the information contained herein may not be applicable to you. 
 Transferability. Section 6 (transferability) of the Agreement
shall be amended to state that: “The Restricted Stock award is not transferable by you otherwise than on death to your personal representative (who shall be either the executors of your will or if you die intestate the duly appointed
administrator(s) of your estate, who have provided to the Company evidence of their appointment as such) or as otherwise determined by the Committee. Notwithstanding any transfer of the Restricted Stock award or portion thereof, the transferred
Restricted Stock award shall continue to be subject to the Plan and this Agreement’s terms and conditions as were applicable to you immediately prior to the transfer, as if the Restricted Stock award had not been transferred.” 

 Withholding of Taxes. This provision supplements the Withholding section of the Agreement.

 If payment or withholding of the Tax-Related Items is not made within 90 days of the event giving rise to the Tax-Related Items (the
“Due Date”) or such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003, the amount of any uncollected Tax-Related Items will constitute a loan owed by you to your Employer, effective on
the Due Date. You agree that the loan will bear interest at the HM Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) official rate of interest and will be immediately due and repayable, and that the Company or your Employer may recover it at any time
thereafter by any of the means specified in the Withholding section of the Agreement. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you are an officer or
executive director (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), you shall not be eligible for a loan from the Company to cover the Tax-Related Items. In the event that you are an officer or
executive director and Tax-Related Items are not collected from or paid by you by the Due Date, the amount of any uncollected Tax-Related Items will constitute a benefit to you on which additional income tax and National Insurance Contributions may
be payable; in this case, you agree that, to the extent required under U.K. law, the Company and/or your Employer may collect any income tax and National Insurance Contributions due on this additional benefit from you by any of the means specified
in the Withholding section of the Agreement.Form of Restricted Stock United Kingdom Award
