6.7           
Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any
jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or the validity
or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment
of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the parties
hereto agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the term or provision, to delete specific words
or phrases or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable
and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall
be enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the parties
hereto agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will
achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term or provision.

 

6.8           
Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Proxy and any other documents delivered by the parties hereto in connection
herewith and therewith constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and
thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect thereto.

 

6.9           
Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended, modified, altered or supplemented other than by means of a written
instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of Parent and Stockholder.

 

6.10          Assignment;
Binding Effect; No Third Party Rights. Except as provided herein, neither this Agreement nor any of the interests or obligations
hereunder may be assigned or delegated by Stockholder, and any attempted or purported assignment or delegation of any of such
interests or obligations shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon Stockholder
and Stockholder’s heirs, estate, executors and personal representatives and Stockholder’s successors and assigns,
and shall inure to the benefit of Parent and its successors and assigns. Without limiting any of the restrictions set forth in
Section 2, Section 3 or elsewhere in this Agreement, this Agreement shall be binding upon any Person to whom any
Subject Securities are transferred. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer on any Person (other than Parent and its successors
and assigns) any rights or remedies of any nature.

 

    6

     

    

 

6.11         Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event
that any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Proxy required to be performed by either of the parties hereto were not performed
in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an
adequate remedy therefor. Stockholder agrees that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by Stockholder of any covenant
or obligation contained in this Agreement or in the Proxy, Parent shall be entitled, without any proof of actual damages (and in
addition to any other remedy that may be available to it at law or in equity, including monetary damages) to obtain: (a) a decree
or order of specific performance to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant or obligation; and (b) an injunction
restraining such breach or threatened breach. Stockholder further agrees that neither Parent nor any other Person shall be required
to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred
to in this Section 6.11, and Stockholder irrevocably waives any right Stockholder may have to require the obtaining, furnishing
or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.

 

6.12         Non-Exclusivity. The rights and remedies of Parent under this Agreement are not exclusive of or limited by any
other rights or remedies which it may have, whether at law, in equity, by contract or otherwise, all of which shall be cumulative
(and not alternative). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the rights and remedies of Parent under this Agreement,
and the obligations and liabilities of Stockholder under this Agreement, are in addition to their respective rights, remedies,
obligations and liabilities under common law requirements and under all applicable Legal Requirements.

 

6.13         Applicable Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

 

(a)               
This Agreement, and any action, suit or other legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including
the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement) (whether at law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise),
shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the choice
of laws principles of the State of Delaware, as to all matters, including matters of validity, construction, effect, enforceability,
performance and remedies. In any action between any of the parties hereto arising out of or relating to this Agreement (whether
at law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise), each of the parties hereto: (i) irrevocably and unconditionally
consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware in and for New Castle
County, Delaware (unless the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction over the matter, in which case the United States District
Court for the District of Delaware); (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such jurisdiction by motion or other
request for leave from such court; and (iii) agrees that it will not bring any such action in any court other than the Court of
Chancery of the State of Delaware in and for New Castle County, Delaware (unless the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction
over the matter, in which case the United States District Court for the District of Delaware). Service of any process, summons,
notice or document to any party’s address and in the manner set forth in Section 6.6 shall be effective service of
process for any such action.

 

(b)              
EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND
DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES, AGREES AND CERTIFIES THAT: (i) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT
OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION,
SEEK TO PREVENT OR DELAY ENFORCEMENT OF SUCH WAIVER; (ii) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVER; (iii)
IT MAKES SUCH WAIVER VOLUNTARILY; AND (iv) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL
WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION  6.13.

 

    7

     

    

 

6.14         Counterparts; Exchanges by Electronic Delivery. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each
of which shall be deemed an original and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one and the same instrument. The exchange
of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by electronic transmission in .PDF format shall be sufficient to bind
the parties hereto to the terms of this Agreement.

 

6.15         Captions. The captions contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, shall not be deemed
to be a part of this Agreement and shall not be referred to in connection with the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

 

6.16         Attorneys’ Fees. If any action at law or suit in equity relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of
any provision of this Agreement is brought against Stockholder, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable
attorneys’ fees, costs and disbursements (in addition to any other relief to which the prevailing party may be entitled).

 

6.17         Waiver. No failure on the part of Parent to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement,
and no delay on the part of Parent in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a
waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy
shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy. Parent shall not be deemed
to have waived any claim available to Parent arising out of this Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy of Parent
under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument
duly executed and delivered on behalf of Parent; and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific
instance in which it is given.

 

6.18         Independence of Obligations. The covenants and obligations of Stockholder set forth in this Agreement shall be
construed as independent of any other Contract between Stockholder, on the one hand, and the Company or Parent, on the other. The
existence of any claim or cause of action by Stockholder against the Company or Parent shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement
of any of such covenants or obligations against Stockholder. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit any of the rights or remedies
of Parent under the Merger Agreement, or any of the rights or remedies of Parent or any of the obligations of Stockholder under
any agreement between Stockholder and Parent or any certificate or instrument executed by Stockholder in favor of Parent; and nothing
in the Merger Agreement or in any other such agreement, certificate or instrument, shall limit any of the rights or remedies of
Parent or any of the obligations of Stockholder under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to contrary in this Section 6.18,
Stockholder will not be liable for claims, losses, damages, liabilities or other obligations of, or incurred by, the
Company resulting from the Company’s breach of the Merger Agreement.

Irrevocable
Proxy

 

The
undersigned stockholder (the “Stockholder”) of Adesto Technologies
Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby irrevocably (to the fullest extent permitted
by law) appoints and constitutes Azara Acquisition Corp., a Delaware Corporation
and a wholly owned direct or indirect subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”) and Dialog
Semiconductor plc, a company incorporated in England and Wales (“Parent”), and each of them, the
attorneys and proxies of the Stockholder, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to the full extent of the Stockholder’s
rights with respect to: (a) the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company owned of record by the Stockholder as of the
date of this proxy, which shares are specified on the final page of this proxy; and (b) any and all other shares of capital stock
of the Company which the Stockholder may acquire on or after the date hereof. (The shares of the capital stock of the Company
referred to in clauses “(a)” and “(b)” of the immediately preceding sentence are collectively referred
to as the “Shares.”) Upon the execution of this proxy, all prior proxies given by the Stockholder with respect
to any of the Shares are hereby revoked, and the Stockholder agrees that no subsequent proxies will be given with respect to any
of the Shares.

 

This proxy is
irrevocable, is coupled with an interest and is granted in connection with, and as security for, the Voting and Support
Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, between Parent and the Stockholder (the “Support Agreement”), and
is granted in consideration of Parent entering into the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof, among
Parent, Merger Sub and the Company (the “Merger Agreement”). This proxy will terminate on the Expiration
Date (as defined in the Support Agreement).

 

The attorneys and proxies
named above will be empowered, and may exercise this proxy, to vote the Shares at any time until the Expiration Date at any meeting
of the stockholders of the Company (however called) and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and in connection with any
action by written consent of stockholders of the Company:

 

(a)       in
favor of: (i) the merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Merger”) and the adoption of the Merger
Agreement; (ii) each of the other actions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; and (iii) any action in furtherance of any of the
foregoing;

 

(b)       against
any action or agreement that would result in a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of the Company in
the Merger Agreement; and

 

(c)       against
each of the following actions (other than the Merger, the other Contemplated Transactions (as defined in the Merger Agreement)
and actions that are permitted by the terms of Section 4.2(b) of the Merger Agreement): (i) any extraordinary corporate transaction,
such as a merger, consolidation, amalgamation, plan or scheme of arrangement, share exchange or other business combination involving
any Acquired Company (as defined in the Merger Agreement); (ii) any sale, lease, sublease, license, sublicense or transfer of a
material portion of the rights or other assets of any Acquired Company; (iii) any reorganization, recapitalization, dissolution
or liquidation of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries; (iv) any change in a majority of the board of directors of
the Company; (v) any amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws; (vi) any material change in the capitalization
of the Company or the Company’s corporate structure; and (vii) any other action which is intended to impede, interfere with,
delay, postpone, discourage or adversely affect the Merger.

 

The attorneys and proxies
named above may not exercise this proxy on any matter not referred to in this proxy. The Stockholder may vote the Shares on all
other matters not referred to in this proxy, and the attorneys and proxies named above may not exercise this proxy with respect
to such other matters.

 

     

     

    

 

CONFIDENTIAL

 

This proxy shall be
binding upon the heirs, estate, executors, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the Stockholder (including any transferee
of any of the Shares).

 

Any term or provision
of this proxy that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability
of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other
situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision
hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the Stockholder agrees that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit
such term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with
a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable
term or provision, and this proxy shall be enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted
to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and
enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid
or unenforceable term or provision.

Future declarations of dividends are subject to approval by our board of directors and may be adjusted as business needs or market conditions change.

			Iowa Law and Certain Charter and Bylaw Provisions
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			The provisions of (1) Iowa law, (2) our Articles and (3) our Bylaws, discussed below could discourage or make it more difficult to accomplish a proxy contest or other change in our management or the acquisition of control by a holder of a substantial amount of our voting stock. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish, or could deter, transactions that shareholders may otherwise consider to be in their best interests or in our best interests. These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of our board of directors and in the policies formulated by the board of directors and to discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change of control of us. These provisions are designed to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal. The provisions also are intended to discourage certain tactics that may be used in proxy fights. Such provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in our management. 
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			Iowa Statutory Business Combinations Provision. We are subject to the anti-takeover provisions of Section 490.1110 of the Iowa Business Corporation Act. In general, Section 490.1110 prohibits a publicly-held Iowa corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested shareholder” for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested shareholder, unless the business 
		

		 

		

			 

		

 

		combination is, or the transaction in which the person became an interested shareholder was, approved in a prescribed manner or another prescribed exception applies. For purposes of Section 490.1110, a “business combination” is defined broadly to include a merger, asset sale or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested shareholder, and, subject to certain exceptions, an “interested shareholder” is a person who, together with his or her affiliates and associates, owns (or within three years prior, did own) 10% or more of the corporation’s voting stock.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			Classified Board of Directors; Removal of Directors for Cause. Our Articles and Bylaws provide that our board of directors is divided into three classes, each serving staggered three-year terms ending at the annual meeting of our shareholders. All directors elected to our classified board of directors will serve until the election and qualification of their respective successors or their earlier resignation or removal. The board of directors is authorized to create new directorships and to fill such positions so created and is permitted to specify the class to which any such new position is assigned. The person filling such position would serve for the term applicable to that class. The board of directors (or its remaining members, even if less than a quorum) is also empowered to fill vacancies on the board of directors occurring for any reason for the remainder of the term of the class of directors in which the vacancy occurred. Members of the board of directors may only be removed for cause and only by the affirmative vote of 66 2/3% of our outstanding voting stock. These provisions are likely to increase the time required for shareholders to change the composition of the board of directors. For example, in general, at least two annual meetings will be necessary for shareholders to effect a change in a majority of the members of the board of directors. 
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			Advance Notice Provisions for Shareholder Proposals and Shareholder Nominations of Directors.  Our Bylaws provide that, for nominations to the board of directors or for other business to be properly brought by a shareholder before a meeting of shareholders, the shareholder must first have given timely notice of the proposal in writing to our Secretary. A shareholder’s notice generally must be delivered not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the one-year anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event of a special meeting or the date of the annual meeting is advanced by more than 30 days or delayed by more than 30 days from the anniversary of the previous year’s annual meeting, notice by the shareholder to be timely must be received by the company not earlier than the close of business on the 90th day prior to such meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 60th day prior to such meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public disclosure of the date of such meeting is first made.  Detailed requirements as to the form of the notice and information included in the notice are specified in the Bylaws.  If it is determined that business was not properly brought before a meeting in accordance with our bylaw provisions, such business will not be conducted at the meeting.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			Special Meetings of Shareholders. Special meetings of the shareholders may be called only by our Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, President, the Board of Directors, or as otherwise allowed under the Iowa Business Corporation Act.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			No Shareholder Action by Written Consent. Our Bylaws do not permit our shareholders to act by written consent, except where otherwise required by the Iowa Business Corporation Act. As a result, any action to be effected by our shareholders must be effected at a duly called Annual or Special Meeting of Shareholders.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			Super-Majority Shareholder Vote Required for Certain Actions. The Iowa Business Corporation Act provides generally that the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote on any matter is required to amend a corporation’s articles of incorporation or bylaws, unless the corporation’s articles of incorporation or bylaws, as the case may be, requires a greater percentage. An affirmative vote of 66 2/3% of our outstanding voting stock is required for any amendment to, or repeal of, our Bylaws by the shareholders.  Our Bylaws may be amended or repealed by a simple majority vote of the board of directors.
