following the occurrence of such Funding Default and to all Backstop Parties (other than any Defaulting Backstop Party) substantially concurrently (such five (5) Business Day period, the “Replacement Period”), to elect,
by written notice to the Company, to purchase all or any portion of the New Common Shares and First Lien Term Loans not purchased as a result of such Funding Default (any such purchase, a “Replacement Purchase”) on the terms

number of New Common Shares and First Lien Term Loans that have not been purchased as a result of such Funding Default (such Backstop Parties, the “Replacing Backstop Parties”). The purchase price paid by any Replacing
Backstop Party in connection with a Replacement Purchase shall be equal to the applicable Purchase Price. Within five (5) Business Days from delivery of written notice of a Funding Default, electing Backstop Parties will fund the Subscription
Account with the additional Purchase Price with respect to the Replacement Purchase. 

  

	 	2.4.2	 If a Backstop Party is a Defaulting Backstop Party, it shall not be entitled to any Backstop Commitment Premium
hereunder and the aggregate Backstop Commitment Premium shall be reduced ratably upon a Funding Default based on the Defaulting Backstop Party’s Backstop Percentage; provided, that if a Replacement Purchase sufficient to cure all or a portion
of the Funding Default occurs, the Backstop Commitment Premium shall only be ratably reduced to the extent of the uncured Funding Default, and such amount that would have otherwise been reduced shall be paid to the Replacing Backstop Parties, as
applicable. 

  

	 	2.4.3	 Other than as set forth in Section 2.4.1, nothing in this Agreement shall require any
Backstop Party to purchase more Remaining First Lien Term Loans and Remaining New Common Shares than its Backstop Purchase Obligation.

Section 8.14, no provision of this Agreement shall relieve any Defaulting Backstop Party from liability hereunder, or limit the availability of the remedies set forth in Section 8.15 or otherwise
available to the non-defaulting parties hereto, in connection with any such Backstop Party’s Funding Default.

partners, general partners, managers and its and their respective representatives, attorneys, and controlling Persons (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and costs
and expenses (other than taxes of the Backstop Parties except to the extent otherwise provided for in this Agreement) (collectively, “Indemnified Losses”) that any such Indemnified Person may incur or to which any such
Indemnified Person may become subject arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, or any claim, challenge, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, regardless of whether any Indemnified Person is a party
thereto, whether or not such proceedings are brought by the Company, the other Company Parties, their respective equity holders, Affiliates, creditors or any other Person, and reimburse each Indemnified Person upon demand for reasonable and
documented out-of-pocket legal or other third-party expenses of counsel (which, so long as there are no actual conflicts of interests among such Indemnified Persons,
shall be limited to one law firm serving as counsel for the Indemnified Persons (in addition to one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction) incurred in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending, or providing evidence in
or preparing to serve or serving as a witness with respect to, any lawsuit, investigation, claim or other proceeding relating to any of the foregoing (including in connection with the enforcement of the indemnification obligations set forth herein),
irrespective of whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Plan are consummated or whether or not this Agreement is terminated; provided, that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Indemnified Person, apply to
Indemnified Losses (a) as to a Defaulting Backstop Party, its Affiliates or any Indemnified Person related thereto, caused by a default or breach of this Agreement by such Defaulting Backstop Party (or Indemnified Persons related thereto), or
(b) to the extent they are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Person.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Indemnifying Parties will not be liable for, and no Indemnified Person shall claim or seek to recover, any punitive, special, indirect or consequential damages or damages for lost
profits. 

  

	7.2	 Indemnification Procedure 

Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of the commencement of any indemnified claim, challenge, litigation, investigation or
proceeding (an “Indemnified 

  
 35 

 
Claim”), such Indemnified Person will, if a claim is to be made hereunder against an Indemnifying Party in respect thereof, notify such Indemnifying Party in writing of the
commencement thereof; provided, that (a) the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have hereunder except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by
such failure and (b) the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Person other than on account of this Section 7.2 or
otherwise under this Agreement. In case any such Indemnified Claims are brought against any Indemnified Person and it notifies the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate therein, and,
at its election by providing written notice to such Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Person; provided, that if the parties
(including any impleaded parties) to any such Indemnified Claims include both such Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party and based on advice of such Indemnified Person’s counsel there are legal defenses available to such Indemnified
Person that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, such Indemnified Person shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such
Indemnified Claims. Upon receipt of notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Person of its election to so assume the defense of such Indemnified Claims with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying
Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Person for expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof or participation therein (other than reasonable and documented costs of investigation) unless (a) such
Indemnified Person shall have employed separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel) in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that
the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel representing the Indemnified Persons who are parties to such Indemnified Claims (in addition to one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction)), (b)
after the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of the Indemnified Claims, the Indemnified Person determines in good faith that the Indemnifying Party has failed or is failing to defend such claim and provides written notice of such determination
and the basis for such determination, and such failure is not reasonably cured within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such notice, or (d) the Indemnifying Party shall have authorized in writing the employment of counsel for such
Indemnified Person. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall have sole control over any tax controversy or tax audit and shall be permitted to settle any liability for taxes of the Company and its
Subsidiaries. 
  

	7.3	 Settlement of Indemnified Claims. In connection with any Indemnified Claim for which an
Indemnified Person is assuming the defense in accordance with this Section 7.3, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement, compromise, or consent to the entry of any judgment of any Indemnified Claims
effected by such Indemnified Person without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If any settlement compromise, or consent

  
 36 

	 	
to the entry of any judgment of any Indemnified Claims is consummated with the written consent of the Indemnifying Party or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such Indemnified
Claims, the Indemnifying Party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all Indemnified Losses by reason of such settlement, compromise, consent to the entry of any judgment or judgment to the extent
such Indemnified Losses are otherwise subject to indemnification by the Indemnifying Party hereunder in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of, this Section 7.3. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the
prior written consent of an Indemnified Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), effect any settlement compromise, consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened Indemnified
Claims in respect of which indemnity or contribution has been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person unless (a) such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability on the
claims that are the subject matter of such Indemnified Claims and (b) such settlement, compromise or consent 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. 

  

	7.4	 Contribution. If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Person
or insufficient to hold it harmless from Indemnified Losses that are subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 7.1, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person
as a result of such loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, but also the relative fault of the
Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, as well as any relevant equitable considerations. It is hereby agreed that the relative benefits to the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and all Indemnified
Persons, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as (a) the total value received or proposed to be received by the Company pursuant to the issuance and sale of the unsubscribed New Common Shares and First Lien Exit
Facility in the Rights Offering contemplated by this Agreement and the Plan bears to (b) the Backstop Commitment Premium paid or proposed to be paid to the Backstop Parties. The Indemnifying Parties also agree that no Indemnified Person shall
have any liability based on their comparative or contributory negligence or otherwise to the Indemnifying Parties, any Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of any of the Indemnifying Parties, or any other Person in connection with an
Indemnified Claim. 

  

	7.5	 Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All amounts paid by an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified
Person under this Article 7 shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price for all tax purposes. The provisions of this Article 7 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement and without these provisions the Backstop Parties would not have entered into this Agreement. The Approval Order shall provide that the obligations of the Company under this Article 7 shall constitute allowed administrative
expenses of the Debtors’ estate under sections 503(b) and 507 of the Bankruptcy Code and are payable without further order of the Bankruptcy Court, and that the Company may comply with the requirements of this Article 7 without further
order of the Bankruptcy Court.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Backstop Party may assign its rights and obligations hereunder prior to the date upon which the Backstop Notice is delivered to the Backstop Parties, to (a) any other Consenting Creditor in a manner consistent
with the terms of the RSA that agrees as part of such assignment to assume such Backstop Party’s Backstop Purchase Obligation, or (b) a Related Fund of any Backstop Party or to any of its or their wholly-owned Affiliates (and/or any
Affiliate that is wholly-owned by any of such Backstop Party’s wholly-owned Affiliates); provided, that, in each case, any such assignment shall not release such Backstop Party from any of its obligations under this
Agreement in the event that such assignee does not fulfill its obligations hereunder; provided, further, that (i) such assignee and the assigning Backstop Party shall have duly executed and delivered to the Company and Porter
Hedges LLP a written notice of such assignment in substantially the form attached as Exhibit A hereto (a “Notice of Assignment”), and the Company shall have delivered countersigned copies of such notice to such

effectiveness of any assignment pursuant to this Section 8.2, the Company shall update Schedule 1 hereto to reflect such assignment. 

 

	8.3	 Survival. Subject to Section 8.12, (a) all representations and

	8.4	 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the terms of the agreements contemplated hereby and referred
to herein (including the RSA and the Plan) contain the entire agreement by and between the Company and the Backstop Parties with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and representations,
written or oral, with respect thereto. To the extent there is an inconsistency between the provisions in this Agreement and the agreements contemplated hereby and referred to herein, the provisions in this Agreement shall control. To the extent
there is an inconsistency between the provisions in this Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall control; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan (including any amendments, supplements or modifications thereto) or

thereto) or Confirmation Order (including any 

  
 39 

	 	
amendments, supplements or modifications thereto) shall alter, amend or modify the rights of the Backstop Parties under this Agreement unless such alteration, amendment or modification has been
made in accordance with Section 8.5.

Parties”). No delay on the part of any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver on the part of any Party of any right, power or privilege pursuant to this
Agreement, nor any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement, shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement. The
rights and remedies provided pursuant to this Agreement are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any Party otherwise may have at law or in equity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no amendment
that reduces or otherwise modifies the Backstop Commitment Premium or Purchase Price, or increases a Backstop Party’s Backstop Purchase Obligation or any other funding or financial obligation of any Backstop Party, shall be effective against
any Backstop Party without such Backstop Party’s prior written consent.

negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any conflict of laws principles that would require the application of the Law
of any other jurisdiction. Each Party hereby irrevocably submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York located in the Borough of Manhattan, for purposes of all legal proceedings arising
out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Party irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such proceeding
brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases, all proceedings contemplated by this
Section 8.6 shall be brought in the Bankruptcy Court. 

  

	8.7	 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed

thereof in any circumstances, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions contained herein will not
be in any way impaired thereby, it being intended that all of the rights and privileges of the parties hereto will be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law.

(provided, however, that the Company may not seek to terminate this Agreement based upon a material breach arising out of its own actions or omissions in breach of this Agreement); 

 

	 	8.10.4	 at the Company’s election, by written notice to the Backstop Parties, if the Company determines in good
faith, based on the advice of counsel, that proceeding with the Rights Offering and the Restructuring would be inconsistent with the exercise of the fiduciary duties under applicable law of the board of directors or analogous governing body of the
Company; provided, however, that the Company provides written notice of such determination to the Backstop Parties within one (1) Business Day after the date of such determination; or 

 

	 	8.10.5	 at the Required Backstop Parties’ election, by written notice to the Company, in the event (i) of a
material breach by any Company Party of this Agreement, if such breach has not been waived by the Required Backstop Parties or cured within five (5) Business Days after the delivery of written notice thereof by the Required Backstop Parties,
(ii) that the Approval Order is reversed, stayed, dismissed, vacated, reconsidered, or modified or amended without the consent of the Required Backstop Parties, (iii) of a breach in any material respect by any Company Party of any
representation or warranty in this Agreement, or of any such representation or warranty becoming inaccurate in any material respect, in each case if such breach or inaccuracy would, individually or in the aggregate for all such breaches or
inaccuracies, prevent the satisfaction of any condition to the effectiveness of the Plan, or the Company’s or any Backstop Party’s performance of any of its obligations hereunder or under the RSA, if such breach or inaccuracy has not been
waived by the Required Backstop Parties or cured within five (5) Business Days after the delivery of written notice thereof by the Backstop Parties, (iv) any of the Milestones is not satisfied, other than solely due to the actions of the
Required Backstop Parties in violation of this Agreement, or (v) the Effective Date shall not 

  
 41 

	 	
have occurred within 80 days after the Petition Date; provided, however, that no Backstop Party may seek to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the foregoing clause (i) based
upon a material breach arising out of the actions or omissions of such Backstop Party in breach of this Agreement). 

  

	8.11	 Breach. Regardless of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to
Section 8.10, each Party shall remain liable for any by such Party of this Agreement prior to its termination. 

  

	8.12	 Effect of Termination.

	Grant Date:
	 
	August 24, 2020

	Tax I.D. 56-1572719
	 
	Performance Period:
	 
	June 29, 2020 through June 27, 2021

Dear Gregg:
I am pleased to inform you that Cree, Inc. (the “Company”) has awarded Performance Units to you effective August 24, 2020 (the “Grant Date”). This award is subject to and governed by the terms of the Cree, Inc. 2013 Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), the terms of the Master Performance Unit Award Agreement between you and the Company, and this Notice of Grant.  

The amount payable to you pursuant to your Performance Units (“D”) will be determined as the result of A x B x C, where:
		
	•
	A equals your Base Salary;

		
	•
	B equals your Target Award Level; and

		
	•
	C equals the Performance Measurement.

For purposes of the foregoing, except as expressly provided otherwise in this Notice of Grant, “Base Salary” shall refer to your annual base salary in effect on the last day of the first fiscal quarter of fiscal year 2021 (“FY21”), as provided in the Company’s human resources management system, unless your annual base salary changes after the first fiscal quarter. If your annual base salary changes after the first fiscal quarter, “Base Salary” will mean the weighted average annual base salary for the Performance Period determined by multiplying each annual base salary in effect during the Performance Period by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the Performance Period on which such annual base salary was in effect and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the Performance Period. However, if you are on a leave of absence (other than a leave of absence where you continue to be paid your full base salary through the Company’s payroll system, except payments received under the Company’s short-term disability income protection plan), for all or part of the Performance Period, your Base Salary will be reduced proportionately to equate to the base salary applicable to the number of calendar days you were not on a leave of absence during the Performance Period. 

For purposes of the foregoing, your “Target Award Level” is one hundred forty percent (140%). 

For purposes of the foregoing, the “Performance Measurement” is a percentage between 0% and 200% determined by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”) after assessing the Company’s performance against FY21 revenue, non-GAAP gross margin, design-ins and pipeline generation, MOSFET yield improvement, completion of the Mohawk Valley Fab building and fit out, and DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) initiatives (the “Performance Criteria”) targets. 

The Performance Measurement for the Performance Period will be determined by calculating the Performance Measurement levels associated with the actual Performance Criteria results, rounded to the nearest whole percentage.

Except as provided in your Change in Control Agreement, dated September 22, 2017, as amended (the “Change in 

Control Agreement”), and except as provided below with respect to your death or LTD Disability, (i) you must be continuously employed by the Company as the Company's Chief Executive Officer through the last day of the Performance Period to have a right to payment of your Performance Units, (ii) your Performance Units will not be considered earned until the last day of the Performance Period, and (iii) if you terminate employment with the Company prior to the last day of the Performance Period, with or without cause, you will forfeit your Performance Units. 

After the end of the Performance Period, your actual Performance Measurement will be determined as follows:
		
	Step 1:
	The Committee will, in good faith and in its sole discretion, determine the Company’s actual Performance Criteria results for the Performance Period (the “Results,” each a “Result”) using competent and reliable information, including but not limited to audited financial statements, if available.  

		
	Step 2:
	The Committee will determine the Performance Measurement for the Performance Period by averaging the Performance Measurement levels that corresponds to each Result, rounded to the nearest whole percentage. However, in the event a Change in Control (as defined in the Change in Control Agreement) occurs during the Performance Period, the percentage for each Result will be no less than 100%paid out as described herein.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to ensure that the Company’s best interests are met, except as specifically provided in the Change in Control Agreement, the Committee in its discretion may decrease or eliminate the amount payable pursuant to your Performance Units at any time prior to payment if it determines in good faith that payment of the full amount otherwise payable pursuant to the Performance Units is not warranted or appropriate; provided, however, so long as you are not in breach of your Confidential Information Agreement (as defined in the Change in Control Agreement), following (i) the commencement of a tender offer or the Company and another party entering into a written agreement that contemplates a transaction, the consummation of either of which would result in a Change in Control, or (ii) a Change in Control, the Committee may not decrease or eliminate the amount payable as otherwise determined in accordance with this Notice of Grant without your prior written consent, except that this restriction shall cease to apply if the tender offer or the written agreement is terminated or expires without the occurrence of a Change in Control. 

In connection with the Committee’s determination of the actual Performance Criteria results for the Performance Period, the Committee shall (without limiting its authority to apply negative discretion as provided above) make adjustments that eliminate the effect of any changes or events (each a “Change”) that occur during such Performance Period and that were not fully anticipated and/or accurately incorporated into the financial calculations when the performance targets were determined, where (a) making the adjustment will improve performance results, and (b) the Change has a material effect on results under a performance target (determined consistently with past practice), and (c) the Change comes within one or more of the following categories (determined consistently with past practice, to the extent applicable): (1) changes in corporate or capital structure, including but not limited to debt or equity offerings, mergers, acquisitions or divestitures; or (2) other unusual or nonrecurring events. 

If prior to settlement of your Performance Units, the Company terminates your employment on account of your LTD Disability or you die, you or your beneficiary will receive payment under your Performance Units as otherwise determined in accordance with this Notice of Grant as if you had remained employed through the payment date for your Performance Units. However, in such event your Base Salary will be proportionally reduced based on the number of calendar days you were employed by the Company and not otherwise on leave of absence as provided above during the Performance Period. 

If there is a Change in Control and you remain continuously employed by the Company through the end of the Performance Period, but your employment terminates In Connection with a Change in Control upon or after the end of the Performance Period but prior to the payment date under your Performance Units, you will be entitled to payment under your Performance Units as otherwise determined in accordance with this Notice of Grant. However, if there is a Change in Control and your employment terminates prior to the end of the Performance Period, you will not be entitled hereunder to a payment under your Performance Units. “In Connection with a Change of Control” will have the same meaning as in the Change in Control Agreement. 

In general, payment under your Performance Units will be made as soon as practicable after the end of the Performance Period and, in any event, will be made no later than (i) the end of the second fiscal quarter following the end of the Performance Period or, if earlier, (ii) the 15th day of the third month after the later of the end of the Company's tax year in which the Performance Period ends or the end of your tax year in which the Performance Period ends. However, if payment becomes due under your Performance Units on account of your death or LTD Disability, payment will be made no later than the 15th day of the third month after the later of the end of the Company’s tax year in which your death or LTD Disability, as applicable, occurs or the end of your tax year in which your death or termination of your employment on account of LTD Disability, as applicable, occurs. Alternatively, in the event a Change in Control occurs prior to the payment date of your Performance Units, any payment that becomes due under your Performance Units will be made no later than the 15th day of the third month after the later of the end of the Company’s tax year in which the Change of Control occurs or the end of your tax year in which the Change of Control occurs. 

This award is intended to fulfill any and all agreements, obligations or promises, whether legally binding or not, previously made by the Company or any Employer under the Plan to grant you Performance Units or to provide you annual incentive compensation for the Performance Period. By signing below, you accept such award, along with all prior awards received by you, in full satisfaction of any such agreement, obligation or promise. By signing below, you expressly acknowledge that you are not a participant in or entitled to a payment under the Management Incentive Compensation Plan. 

Nothing in this Notice of Grant or the Master Performance Unit Award Agreement is intended to modify or amend the terms of the Change in Control Agreement, including but not limited to your right to receive the payments specified in Section 7 thereof in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Change in Control Agreement.
