 AGREEMENT 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the parties mutually agree that the Prior Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as
follows: 
  
 1. Registration Rights. The Company and
the Investors covenant and agree as follows: 
  
 1.1 Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement: 
  
 (a) The term “Exchange Act” refers to the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; 

 (b) The term “FormS-3” means such form under the Securities Act
in effect on the date hereof or any successor form under the Securities Act that permits significant incorporation by reference of the Company’s subsequent public filings under the Exchange Act; 
  
 (c) The term “Holder” means any
person owning or having the right to acquire Registrable Securities or any assignee thereof in accordance with Section 1.12 of this Agreement; 
  
 (d) The term “Preferred Stock” means shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Stock,
Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock. 
  
 (e) The term “Qualified IPO” means a firm commitment underwritten public offering by the Company of shares of its
Common Stock pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 under the Securities Act, the public offering price of which is not less than $7.50 per share (appropriately adjusted for any stock split, dividend, combination or other recapitalization)
and which results in aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $20,000,000; 
  
 (e) The terms “register,” “registered,” and “registration” refer to a registration effected by preparing and filing a registration statement or
similar document in compliance with the Securities Act, and the declaration or ordering of effectiveness of such registration statement or document; 
  
 (f) The term “Registrable Securities” means (i) the shares of Common Stock issuable or issued upon conversion of
the Preferred Stock, other than shares for which registration rights have terminated pursuant to Section 1.14 hereof, and (ii) any other shares of Common Stock of the Company issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant,
right or other security which is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for or in replacement of, the shares listed in (i); provided, however, that the foregoing definition shall exclude in all
cases any Registrable Securities sold by a person in a transaction in which his or her rights under this Agreement are not assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Common Stock or other securities shall only be treated as Registrable Securities if
and so long as they have not been (A) sold to or through a broker or dealer or underwriter in a public distribution or a public securities transaction, or (B) sold in a transaction exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of
the Securities Act under Section 4(1) thereof so that all transfer restrictions, and restrictive legends with respect thereto, if any, are removed upon the consummation of such sale; 
  
 (g) The number of shares of “Registrable Securities then outstanding” shall be
determined by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding which are, and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to then exercisable or convertible securities which are, Registrable Securities; 
  
 (h) The term “Securities Act” refers
to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; and 
  

 2 

 (i) The term “SEC” means the Securities and Exchange Commission.

  
 1.2 Request for Registration.

  
 (a) If the Company shall receive at any time
after the later of (i) six months following a Qualified IPO or (ii) December 31, 2003, a written request from the Holders of at least 30% of the Registrable Securities then outstanding (the “Initiating Holders”) that the
Company file a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the registration of the Registrable Securities then outstanding, then the Company shall, within ten (10) days of the receipt thereof, give written notice of such request to all
Holders and shall, subject to the limitations of subsection 1.2(b), use its best efforts to effect as soon as practicable, and in any event within sixty (60) days of the receipt of such request, the registration under the Securities Act of all
Registrable Securities which the Holders request to be registered within twenty (20) days of the mailing of such notice by the Company in accordance with Section 3.4. 
  
 (b) If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by
means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this Section 1.2 and the Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in subsection 1.2(a). The underwriter shall be
selected by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders and shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company. In such event, the right of any Holder to include his Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such
Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders and such Holder) to the extent
provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company as provided in subsection 1.5(e)) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or
underwriters selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1.2, if the underwriter advises the Initiating Holders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be
underwritten, then the Initiating Holders shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities which would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall
be allocated among all Holders thereof, including the Initiating Holders, in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the amount of Registrable Securities of the Company owned by each Holder; provided, however, that the number of
shares of Registrable Securities held by the Initiating Holders to be included in such underwriting shall not be reduced unless all other securities are first entirely excluded from the underwriting. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall
furnish to Holders requesting a registration statement pursuant to this Section 1.2, a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously
detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such registration statement to be filed and it is therefore essential to defer the filing of such registration statement, the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not
more than 120 days after receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders; provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than once in any 12-month period. 
  

 3 

 (d) In addition, the Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to
effect, any registration pursuant to this Section 1.2: 
  
 (i) After the Company has effected two registrations pursuant to this Section 1.2 and such registrations have been declared or ordered effective; 
  
 (ii) During the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s good faith
estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on a date one hundred eighty (180) days after the effective date of, a registration subject to Section 1.3 hereof; provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to
cause such registration statement to become effective; or 
  
 (iii) If the Initiating Holders propose to dispose of shares of Registrable Securities that may be immediately registered on Form S-3 pursuant to a request made pursuant to Section 1.4 below. 
  
 1.3 Company Registration. If (but without any
obligation to do so) the Company proposes to register (including for this purpose a registration effected by the Company for stockholders other than the Holders) any of its stock under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of
such securities solely for cash (other than a registration relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a Company stock plan or a transaction covered by Rule 145 under the Securities Act, a registration in which the only stock being
registered is Common Stock issuable upon conversion of debt securities which are also being registered, or any registration on any form which does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration
statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder written notice of such registration. Upon the written request of each Holder given within twenty (20) days after mailing of such
notice by the Company in accordance with Section 6.5, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 1.8, cause to be registered, under the Securities Act, all of the Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be
registered. 
  
 1.4 Registration for
Resale. In case the Company is a reporting company under the Exchange Act and shall receive from any Holder or Holders of not less than fifteen percent (15%) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding a written request or requests that
the Company effect a registration on Form S-3 or any other form and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders, the Company will: 
  
 (a) promptly give written notice of the proposed
registration, and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders; and 
  
 (b) as soon as practicable, effect such registration and all such qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would
permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holder’s or Holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holder
or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within 
  

 4 

 15 days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance, pursuant to this Section 1.4: (i) if Form S-3 is not available for such offering by the Holders; (ii) if the Holders, together with the holders of any other
securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public (net of any underwriters’ discounts or commissions) of less than
$500,000; (iii) if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and
its stockholders for such Form S-3 Registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3 registration statement for a period of not more than 120 days after receipt of the
request of the Holder or Holders under this Section 1.4; provided, however, that the Company shall not utilize this right more than once in any twelve month period; (iv) if the Company has, within the six (6) month period preceding the
date of such request, already effected one registration on Form S-3 for the Holders pursuant to this Section 1.4; (v) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general consent to
service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance; or (vi) during the period ending one hundred eighty (180) days after the effective date of a registration statement subject to Section 1.3. 
  
 (c) Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a
registration statement covering the Registrable Securities and other securities so requested to be registered as soon as practicable after receipt of the request or requests of the Holders. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 1.4 shall
not be counted as registrations effected pursuant to Section 1.2. 
  
 1.5 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required under this Section 1 to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible: 
  
 (a) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement
with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such
registration statement effective for up to one hundred twenty (120) days. 
  
 (b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement for up to one hundred twenty (120) days. 
  
 (c) Furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a
prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them.

  

 5 

 (d) Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such
registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders, provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to
qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions. 
  
 (e) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and
customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement. 
  
 (f) Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a
prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material
fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, such obligation to continue for one hundred twenty (120) days.

  
 (g) Cause all such Registrable Securities
registered pursuant hereto to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed. 
  
 (h) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereto and a CUSIP number for all such
Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration. 
  
 (i) Use its best efforts to furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this
Section 1, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale in connection with a registration pursuant to this Section 1, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, (i) an opinion, dated such date,
of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters and to the Holders requesting registration
of Registrable Securities and (ii) a letter dated such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an
underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities. 
  
 1.6 Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to
this Section 1 with respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such
securities as shall be required to effect the registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities. The Company shall have no obligation with respect to any registration requested pursuant to Section 1.2 or Section 1.4 of this Agreement if, as
a result of the application of the 
  

 6 

 preceding sentence, the number of shares or the anticipated aggregate offering price of the Registrable
Securities to be included in the registration does not equal or exceed the number of shares or the anticipated aggregate offering price required to originally trigger the Company’s obligation to initiate such registration as specified in
subsection 1.2(a) or subsection 1.4(b)(ii), whichever is applicable. 
  
 1.7 Expenses of Registration. All expenses incurred by the registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 1.2, 1.3, or 1.4, (other than underwriting discounts and commissions incurred in
connection with registrations or stock transfers, taxes, and fees of one counsel to the registering holders which shall not in any event exceed $30,000), will be borne by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 1.2 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered (in which
case all participating Holders shall bear such expenses), unless the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities agree to forfeit their right to one demand registration pursuant to Section 1.2; provided further, however,
that if at the time of such withdrawal, the Holders have learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of the Company from that information known to the Holders at the time of their request and have withdrawn the
request with reasonable promptness following disclosure by the Company of such material adverse change, then the Holders shall not be required to pay any of such expenses and shall retain their rights pursuant to Section 1.2. 
  
 1.8 Underwriting Requirements. In connection
with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock, the Company shall not be required under Section 1.3 to include any of the Holders’ securities in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the
underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it (or by other persons entitled to select the underwriters), and then only in such quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize
the success of the offering by the Company. If the total amount of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities sold other than by the Company that the
underwriters determine in their sole discretion is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Registrable Securities, which the
underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the securities so included to be apportioned pro rata among the selling stockholders according to the total amount of securities entitled to be included
therein owned by each selling stockholder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by such selling stockholders) but in no event shall (i) the amount of securities of the selling Holders included in the offering be reduced below
twenty percent (20%) of the total amount of securities included in such offering, unless such offering is the initial public offering of the Company’s securities, in which case, the selling stockholders may be excluded or (ii) notwithstanding
(i) above, any shares being sold by a stockholder exercising a demand registration right similar to that granted in Section 1.2 be excluded from such offering. For purposes of the preceding parenthetical concerning apportionment, for any selling
stockholder which is a holder of Registrable Securities and which is a partnership or corporation, the partners, retired partners and stockholders of such holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired partners and any
trusts for the benefit of any of 
  

 7 

 the foregoing persons shall be deemed to be a single “selling stockholder”, and any pro-rata
reduction with respect to such “selling stockholder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such “selling stockholder,” as defined in this
sentence. 
  
 1.9 Delay of
Registration. No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of
this Section 1. 
  
 1.10
Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement under this Section 1: 
  
 (a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the partners or officers, directors or
shareholders of each Holder, legal counsel and accountants for each such Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities
Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a “Violation”): (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation
promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law; and the Company will pay to each such Holder, underwriter or controlling person, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection
with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 1.10(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss,
claim, damage, liability, or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable to any Holder, underwriter or controlling person for any such
loss, claim, damage, liability, or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by
any such Holder, underwriter or controlling person. 
  
 (b) To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each person, if any, who controls the Company
within the meaning of the Securities Act, any underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in such registration statement and any controlling person of any such underwriter or other Holder, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities
(joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such 
  

 8 

 losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon
any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such
Holder will pay, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this subsection 1.10(b), in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or
action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 1.10(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the
consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that in no event shall any indemnity under this subsection 1.10(b) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in the case of
willful fraud by such Holder. 
  
 (c) Promptly
after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 1.10 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party
under this Section 1.10, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other
indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties which may be represented
without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying
party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a
reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 1.10, but the omission so to deliver
written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 1.10. 
  

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 1.10 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an
indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection
with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, that in no event shall any contribution by a Holder under this Subsection
1.10(d) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in the case of willful fraud by such Holder. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ 
  

 9 

 relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement
or omission. 
  
 (e) Notwithstanding the
foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions
in the underwriting agreement shall control. 
  
 (f) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 1.10 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement under this Section 1, and otherwise. 
  
 1.11 Reports Under Securities Exchange Act of
1934. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the
public without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the Company agrees to: 
  
 (a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144, at all times after the
effective date of the first registration statement filed by the Company for the offering of its securities to the general public so long as the Company remains subject to the periodic reporting requirements under Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act; 
  
 (b) take such action, including the
voluntary registration of its Common Stock under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, as is necessary to enable the Holders to utilize Form S-3 for the sale of their Registrable Securities, such action to be taken as soon as practicable after the end of
the fiscal year in which the first registration statement filed by the Company for the offering of its securities to the general public is declared effective; 
  

(c) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act; and 
  
 (d) furnish to any Holder,
so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90) days after the effective date of
the first registration statement filed by the Company), the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to
Form S-3 (at any time after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in
availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC which permits the selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant to such form. 
  
 1.12 Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this
Section 1 may be assigned (but only with all 
  

 10 

 related obligations) by a Holder to a transferee or assignee of at least 250,000 shares of such
securities (which, in the case of related funds or affiliates, may be aggregated) or all of such transferring Holders shares, provided however, that the Company is, furnished with prompt written notice of the name and address of such
transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned; and provided, further, that such assignment shall be effective only if immediately following such transfer the further
disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act and the transferee has agreed to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. For the purposes of determining the number of shares of
Registrable Securities held by a transferee or assignee, the holdings of transferees and assignees of a partnership who are partners or retired partners of such partnership (including spouses and ancestors, lineal descendants and siblings of such
partners or spouses who acquire Registrable Securities by gift, will or intestate succession) shall be aggregated together and with the partnership; provided that all assignees and transferees who would not qualify individually for assignment of
registration rights shall have a single attorney-in-fact for the purpose of exercising any rights, receiving notices or taking any action under Section 1. Transfers of registration rights to a partner or affiliate of the transferee shall be without
the restriction set forth above as to minimum stockholdings. 
  
 1.13 Further Limitations on Disposition. 
  
 (a) Lock Up; Agreement. In connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities, each Holder agrees
not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company, however or whenever acquired (except for those securities being registered) without the prior written consent of
the Company or the managing underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed 180 days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement
reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the managing underwriters at the time of the Company’s initial public offering.  
  
 (b) Limitations. The obligations described in Section 1.13(a) shall apply only if all officers and directors of the Company,
all one percent (1%) stockholders, and all other persons with registration rights (whether or not pursuant to this Agreement) enter into similar agreements, and shall not apply to a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, or to a
registration relating solely to a transaction pursuant to Rule 145 under the Securities Act. 
  
 (c) Stop-Transfer Instructions. In order to enforce the foregoing covenants, the Company may impose stop-transfer
instructions with respect to the securities of each Holder (and the securities of every other person subject to the restrictions in Section 1.13(a)). 
  
 (d) Transferees Bound. Each Holder agrees that it will not transfer securities of the Company unless each transferee agrees
in writing to be bound by all of the provisions of this Section 1.13.

 1.14 Termination of Registration Rights. No Holder shall be entitled to
exercise any right provided for in this Section 1 on the earlier of (i) five (5) years following the consummation of a Qualified IPO or (ii) such time as Rule 144 or another similar exemption under the Securities Act is available for the sale of all
of such Holder’s shares during a three (3)-month period without registration. 
  
 1.15 Grants of Additional Registration Rights. The Company shall not, without first obtaining the written consent of the
holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities, grant to a prospective holder of the Company’s capital stock registration rights superior to or pari passu with those of the holders of the Preferred Stock. 
  
 2. Covenants of the Company. 
  
 2.1 Delivery of Financial Statements. The
Company shall deliver to each holder of at least 250,000 shares of Registrable Securities (other than a Holder reasonably deemed by the Company to be a competitor of the Company): 
  
 (a) annual financial statements, including a balance sheet, a statement of operations and a statement of
cash flows for each fiscal year, all prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and audited and certified by the Company’s independent public accountants, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year; 

 
 (b) quarterly unaudited financial statements, including a
balance sheet, a statement of operations and a statement of cash flows for each fiscal quarter, all prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles but without footnotes of any kind, within 30 days after the end of each of the
first three quarters of each fiscal year; and 
  
 (c) monthly financial statements, including a balance sheet, a statement of operations and a statement of cash flows for each month, as well as budgets and summaries of financial plans at the same time that these financial statements are
provided to the members of the Board of Directors of the Company. 
  
 2.2 Inspection. The Company shall permit each Holder of at least 250,000 shares of Registrable Securities (except for a Holder reasonably deemed by the Company to be a competitor of the Company), at such
Holder’s expense, to visit and inspect the Company’s properties, to examine its books of accounts and records and to discuss the Company’s affairs, finances and accounts with its officers, all at such reasonable times as may be
requested by the Holder; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated pursuant to this Section 2.2 to provide access to any information which it reasonably considers to be a trade secret or similar confidential
information. 
  
 3. Right of First Offer. Subject to
the terms and conditions specified in this Section 3, the Company hereby grants to each Major Investor (as hereinafter defined) a right of first offer with respect to future sales by the Company of its Shares (as hereinafter defined). For purposes
of this Section 3, a “Major Investor” shall mean any person who holds in the aggregate, at least 300,000 shares of the Series C and/or Series D Preferred Stock (or the Common Stock 
  

 12 

 issued upon conversion thereof) issued pursuant to the Series C Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement or the Purchase
Agreement. For purposes of this Section 3, Major Investor includes any general partners and affiliates of a Major Investor. A Major Investor who chooses to exercise the right of first offer may designate as purchasers under such right itself or its
partners or affiliates in such proportions as it deems appropriate. Each time the Company proposes to offer any shares of, or securities convertible into or exercisable for any shares of, any class of its capital stock
(“Shares”), the Company shall first make an offering of such Shares to each Major Investor in accordance with the following provisions (the “Offer Right”): 
  
 (a) The Company shall deliver a notice by certified mail
(“Notice”) to the Major Investors stating (i) its bona fide intention to offer such Shares, (ii) the number of such Shares to be offered, and (iii) the price and terms, if any, upon which it proposes to offer such Shares.

  
 (b) Within 15 calendar days after delivery of
the Notice, the Major Investor may elect, by giving written notice to the Company, to purchase or obtain, at the price and on the terms specified in the Notice, up to that portion of such Shares which equals the proportion that the number of shares
of Common Stock issued and held, or issuable upon conversion and exercise of all convertible or exercisable securities then held, by such Major Investor bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (assuming full conversion
and exercise of all outstanding convertible or exercisable securities). Such purchase shall be completed at the same closing as that of any third party purchasers or at an additional closing thereunder. Failure by the Major Investor to give a
written notice as contemplated herein shall be deemed an election by it not to exercise its rights hereunder.  
  
 (c) In the event that any portion of the Shares remain unsubscribed following the period set forth in subsection 3(b) hereof, the Company
shall deliver a second notice by certified mail (“Second Notice”) only to those Major Investors who exercised their Offer Right in accordance with subsection 3(b) stating (i) its bona fide intention to offer such Shares, (ii)
the number of such Shares to be offered, and (iii) the price and terms, if any, upon which it proposes to offer such Shares. Within 15 calendar days after delivery of the Second Notice, each Major Investor who receives the Second Notice may elect,
by giving written notice to the Company, to purchase or obtain, at the price and on the terms specified in the Second Notice, up to that portion of such Shares which equals the proportion that the number of shares of Common Stock issued and held, or
issuable upon conversion and exercise of all convertible or exercisable securities then held, by such Major Investor bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (assuming full conversion and exercise of all outstanding
convertible or exercisable securities) held by all Major Investors who receive the Second Notice. Such purchase shall be completed at the same closing as that of any third party purchasers or at an additional closing thereunder. Failure by the Major
Investor to give a written notice as contemplated herein shall be deemed an election by it not to exercise its rights hereunder.  
  
 (d) The Company may, during the 45-day period following the expiration of the period provided in subsection 3(c) hereof, offer the
remaining unsubscribed portion of the Shares to any person or persons at a price not less than, and upon terms no more favorable to the offeree than those specified in the Notice. If the Company does not enter into an 
  

 13 

 agreement for the sale of the Shares within such period, or if such agreement is not consummated within
60 days of the execution thereof, the right provided hereunder shall be deemed to be revived and such Shares shall not be offered unless first reoffered to the Major Investors in accordance herewith. 
  
 (e) The right of first offer pursuant to this Section 3
shall not be applicable (i) Common Stock issued to employees, consultants, officers or directors of the Company pursuant to a stock purchase, stock option or other written compensation plan approved by a majority of the members of the Board of
Directors of the Company (including options granted prior to the financing), (ii) the issuance of securities in connection with acquisition transactions approved by a majority of the members of the Board, (iii) the issuance of securities to
financial institutions or lessors in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar transactions that are primarily for non-equity financing purposes and approved by a majority of the members of the Board, (iv)
shares issued upon conversion of any of the Preferred Stock, (v) the issuance of securities in a public offering in which all of the Preferred Stock will be converted, (vi) the issuance of securities pursuant to currently outstanding options,
warrants, notes, or other rights to acquire securities of the Company, or (vii) stock splits, stock dividends or like transactions. Such right of first offer shall terminate upon an acquisition of the Company, a Qualified IPO, or at such time as the
Company becomes subject to the reporting provisions of the Exchange Act. In addition to the foregoing, the right of first offer in this paragraph 3(e) shall not be applicable with respect to any Major Investor and any subsequent securities issuance,
if (i) at the time of such subsequent securities issuance, the Major Investor is not an “accredited investor,” as that term is then defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act, and (ii) such subsequent securities issuance is otherwise
being offered only to accredited investors. 
  
 4. Board of
Directors Voting Rights and Observer Rights. 
  
 (a) So long as there are at least one million (1,000,000) shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends or recapitalizations) Berg & Berg Enterprises shall be entitled to elect one member
of the Board of Directors of the Company. 
  
 (b)
For so long as U.S. Trust (or its affiliates) owns at least one million (1,000,000) shares of Series D Preferred (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends or recapitalizations), U.S. Trust shall be entitled to designate one individual
reasonably acceptable to the Company (such designee, an “Observer”) who shall be entitled to notice of, to attend and to any documentation distributed to members before, during or after, all meetings (including any action to
be taken by written consent) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company; provided, however, that upon the request of the Board, the Observer will excuse himself or herself from any portion of a meeting of
the Board if the Chairman of the Board or a majority of the Board shall reasonably determine it to be necessary for purposes of confidentiality, competitive factors, or attorney-client privilege. The Observer shall not be (a) permitted to vote at
any meeting of the Board, or (b) counted for purposes of determining whether there is sufficient quorum for the Board to conduct its business. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that notwithstanding contrary authority, if any, the
Observer shall have no duties to the 
  

 14 

 Company or its stockholders except as specifically set forth in this Section 4(b). U.S. Trust shall
designate, and may replace, the Observer with or without cause in its sole discretion (provided that any designee or replacement shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company) by providing written notice to the Company at least 5 business days prior
to any such action taking effect. For purposes of this section the term “affiliate(s)” shall mean any wholly owned subsidiary or parent of, or any corporation or entity that is, within the meaning of the Securities Act, controlling,
controlled by or under common control with or any funds advised by U.S. Trust. U.S. Trust, its affiliates and its Observer shall agree to maintain in confidence all confidential information disclosed to the Observer pursuant to this Section 4(b).
U.S. Trust and the Observer shall only be entitled to disclose the confidential information to U.S. Trust’s employees, agents and advisors who reasonably need to know such information for the purpose of evaluating and managing the relationship
between U.S. Trust and the Company. In addition, any confidential information provided to U.S. Trust by the Company in tangible form shall not be copied or distributed except to the individuals listed in the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth herein, the provisions of this Section 4(b) shall not be amended without the prior written consent of U.S. Trust, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
  
 5. Termination of Covenants. The covenants set forth in
Sections 2, 3 and 4 shall terminate as to each and every Holder and Investor under this Agreement and the Prior Agreement and be of no further force or effect (i) immediately prior to the consummation of a Qualified IPO, (ii) upon a sale,
conveyance, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s property or business or merger with or into or consolidation with any other corporation (other than a wholly-owned subsidiary corporation) or any other transaction or
series of related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Company is disposed of and the Company is not the survivor (a “Change in Control”), or (iii) with respect to Sections 2.1 and 2.2 only, when the
Company or any issuer of securities issued in exchange for securities of the Company first becomes or is subject to the periodic reporting requirements of Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. 
  
 6. Miscellaneous. 
  
 6.1 Legends. 
  
 (a) The certificates evidencing shares of the Company held
by parties hereto shall bear, in addition to any other legend required under the federal or the state securities laws, the following legends, as applicable: 
  

 15 

 THE VOLUNTARY OR INVOLUNTARY ENCUMBRANCE, TRANSFER, OR OTHER DISPOSITION (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,

 6.2 Termination of Prior Agreement. The Parties hereto agree and confirm that this Agreement shall amend, restate and

 6.3 Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, the terms and provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties
hereto.

 6.5 Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in

 AMENDMENT TO 
 SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT 
  
 This Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement (this “Amendment”) is made as of March 18, 2004, by and among NetLogic Microsystems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), and certain of the investors who are parties (the “Investors”) to the Second Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement originally dated as of August 31, 2001 (the “Investor
Rights Agreement”), which is amended hereby. 
  
 RECITALS 
  
 WHEREAS, the Company has authorized
the issuance and sale of convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) and warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, to certain of the
Investors (collectively, the “Bridge Investors”); 
  
 WHEREAS, the Company and the Bridge Investors have entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) of even date herewith pursuant to which the Company desires to
issue and sell to the Bridge Investors, and the Bridge Investors desire to purchase from the Company, the Notes and the Warrants; 
  
 WHEREAS, as a condition to closing the purchase and sale of the Notes and Warrants under the Purchase Agreement, the Company, the Bridge Investors and
certain of the Investors are required to enter into this Amendment in order to amend the Investor Rights Agreement as provided hereunder; and 
  
 WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 6.4 thereof, the Investor Rights Agreement may be amended only with the written consent of the Company and the holders of 60%
of the shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock currently outstanding. 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the promises and covenants contained herein, the parties hereby agree as follows: 
  
 1. Amendments. 
  
 (a) Definition of Registrable Securities. Section 1.1(f) of the Investor Rights Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

  
 (f) The term “Registrable
Securities” means (i) the shares of Common Stock issuable or issued upon conversion of the Preferred Stock, other than shares for which registration rights have terminated pursuant to Section 1.14 hereof, (ii) any shares of Common Stock
issuable or issued upon the exercise of any warrants issued in connection with the transactions contemplated by that certain Note and Purchase Agreement to be dated on or about March 18, 

 2004, by and among the Company and the other parties thereto, and (iii) any shares of Common Stock of the
Company issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security which is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for or in replacement of, the shares listed in (i) or (ii);
provided, however, that the foregoing definition shall exclude in all cases any Registrable Securities sold by a person in a transaction in which his or her rights under this Agreement are not assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Common Stock or other securities shall only be treated as Registrable Securities if and so long as they have not been (A) sold to or through a broker or dealer or underwriter in a public distribution or a public securities transaction, or (B) sold
in a transaction exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(1) thereof so that all transfer restrictions, and restrictive legends with respect thereto, if any, are removed upon the
consummation of such sale; 
  
 (b) Amendments and Waivers.
The following sentence shall be inserted as the last sentence of Section 6.4 of the Investor Rights Agreement: 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with only the written consent of the Company for the sole purpose of including additional
parties as “Investors” and “Holders.” 
  
 2.
Miscellaneous. This Amendment shall be governed by, interpreted under, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the state of California, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors, assigns,
personal representatives, heirs and legatees of the respective parties hereto. This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same
instrument. A party’s delivery of a signed counterpart by electronic facsimile or other means of electronic transmission will constitute that party’s due execution and delivery of this Amendment. The headings of sections are inserted for
convenience only and are not intended to limit or define the scope or effect of any provision of this Amendment. The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Amendment shall not affect the enforceability of any other
provision of this Amendment, all of which shall remain in full force and effect. 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Investor
Rights Agreement as of the date first above written.

 As Amended January 20, 2004 
  
 1. Purposes of the Plan. The purposes of this 2000 Stock Plan are to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of

 (d) “Board” means the Board of Directors of the Company. 
  
 (e) “Change of Control” means a sale
of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, or any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation, other than a merger or consolidation in which the holders of more than 50% of the shares of capital stock of
the Company outstanding immediately prior to such transaction continue to hold (either by the voting securities remaining outstanding or by their being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than 50% of the total voting power
represented by the voting securities of the Company, or such surviving entity, outstanding immediately after such transaction.

 -4- 

 4. Administration of the Plan. 
  
 (a) General. The Plan shall be administered by
the Board or a Committee, or a combination thereof, as determined by the Board. The Plan may be administered by different administrative bodies with respect to different classes of Optionees and, if permitted by the Applicable Laws, the Board may
authorize one or more officers to grant Options or Stock Purchase Rights under the Plan. 
  
 (b) Administration with Respect to Reporting Persons. With respect to Options granted to Reporting Persons and Named
Executives, the Plan may (but need not) be administered so as to permit such Options to qualify for the exemption set forth in Rule 16b-3 and to qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code. 
  
 (c) Committee Composition. If a Committee has
been appointed pursuant to this Section 4, such Committee shall continue to serve in its designated capacity until otherwise directed by the Board. From time to time the Board may increase the size of any Committee and appoint additional members
thereof, remove members (with or without cause) and appoint new members in substitution therefor, fill vacancies (however caused) and remove all members of a Committee and thereafter directly administer the Plan, all to the extent permitted by the
Applicable Laws and, in the case of a Committee administering the Plan pursuant to Section 4(b) above, to the extent permitted or required by Rule 16b-3 and Section 162(m) of the Code. 
  
 (d) Powers of the Administrator. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and in the case of a
Committee, the specific duties delegated by the Board to such Committee, and subject to the approval of any relevant authorities, including the approval, if required, of any Stock Exchange, the Administrator shall have the authority, in its
discretion: 
  
 (i) to determine the Fair Market
Value of the Common Stock, in accordance with Section 2(p) of the Plan; 
  
 (ii) to select the Consultants and Employees to whom Options and Stock Purchase Rights or any combination thereof may from time to time be granted; 
  
 (iii) to determine whether and to what extent Options and Stock Purchase Rights or any combination thereof
are granted; 
  
 (iv) to determine the number of
Shares of Common Stock to be covered by each such award granted hereunder; 
  
 (v) to approve forms of agreement for use under the Plan; 
  
 (vi) to determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any award granted hereunder, which terms and
conditions include but are not limited to the exercise or purchase price, the time or times when Options or Stock Purchase Rights may be exercised (which may be based on performance criteria), any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture
restrictions, and any restriction or limitation regarding any Option, 

  

 -5- 

 
Optioned Stock, Stock Purchase Right or Restricted Stock, based in each case on such factors as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine;

  
 (vii) to determine whether and under what
circumstances an Option may be settled in cash under Section 9(f) instead of Common Stock; 
  
 (viii) to reduce the exercise price of any Option to the then current Fair Market Value if the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock
covered by such Option shall have declined since the date the Option was granted and to make any other amendments or adjustments to any Option that the Administrator determines, in its discretion and under the authority granted to it under the Plan,
to be necessary or advisable, provided however that no amendment or adjustment to an Option that would materially and adversely affect the rights of any Optionee shall be made without the prior written consent of the Optionee; 
  
 (ix) to determine the terms and restrictions applicable to
Stock Purchase Rights and the Restricted Stock purchased by exercising such Stock Purchase Rights; 
  
 (x) to initiate an Option Exchange Program; 
  
 (xi) to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and awards granted under the Plan; and 
  
 (xii) in order to fulfill the purposes of the Plan and
without amending the Plan, to modify grants of Options or Stock Purchase Rights to Participants who are foreign nationals or employed outside of the United States in order to recognize differences in local law, tax policies or customs. 

 
 (e) Effect of Administrator’s
Decision. All decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Administrator shall be final and binding on all Participants. 
  
 5. Eligibility. 
  
 (a) Recipients of Grants. Nonstatutory Stock Options and Stock Purchase Rights may be granted to Employees and Consultants.
Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees; provided however that Employees of Affiliates shall not be eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options. An Employee or Consultant who has been granted an Option or Stock Purchase Right may,
if he or she is otherwise eligible, be granted additional Options or Stock Purchase Rights. 
  
 (b) Type of Option. Each Option shall be designated in the Option Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a
Nonstatutory Stock Option. However, notwithstanding such designations, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of Shares with respect to which Options designated as Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by any
Optionee during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such excess Options shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For purposes of this Section 5(b), Incentive Stock Options shall be
taken into account 

  

 -6- 

 
in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to an Incentive Stock Option shall be determined as of the date of
grant of such Option. 
  
 (c) At-Will
Relationship. The Plan shall not confer upon any Participant any right with respect to continuation of employment or consulting relationship with the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with such holder’s right or the
Company’s right to terminate his or her employment or consulting relationship at any time, with or without cause. 
  
 6. Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon its adoption by the Board. It shall continue in effect for a term of ten years unless
sooner terminated under Section 15 of the Plan. 
  
 7. Term
of Option. The term of each Option shall be the term stated in the Option Agreement; provided, however, that the term shall be no more than ten years from the date of grant thereof or such shorter term as may be provided in the Option
Agreement. However, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an Optionee who, at the time the Option is granted, is a Ten Percent Holder, the term of such Option shall be five years from the date of grant thereof or such shorter term as
may be provided in the Option Agreement. 
  
 8. Option
Exercise Price and Consideration. 
  
 (a)
The per Share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to exercise of an Option shall be such price as is determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Option Agreement, but shall be subject to the following: 
  
 (i) In the case of an Incentive Stock Option that is:

  
 (A) granted to an Employee who at the time
of grant is a Ten Percent Holder, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. 
  
 (B) granted to any other Employee, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date
of grant. 
  
 (ii) In the case of a Nonstatutory
Stock Option that is: 
  
 (A) granted prior to
the date, if any, on which the Common Stock becomes a Listed Security to a person who at the time of grant is a Ten Percent Holder, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of the grant
if required by the Applicable Laws and, if not so required, shall be such price as is determined by the Administrator. 
  
 (B) granted prior to the date, if any, on which the Common Stock becomes a Listed Security to any other eligible person, the per Share
exercise price shall be no less than 85% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant if required by the Applicable Laws and, if not so required, shall be such price as is determined by the Administrator. 
  

 -7- 

 (iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options may be granted with a per Share exercise
price other than as required above pursuant to a merger or other corporate transaction. 
  
 (b) The consideration to be paid for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option, including the method of payment, shall be
determined by the Administrator (and, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, shall be determined at the time of grant) and may consist entirely of (1) cash; (2) check; (3) delivery of Optionee’s promissory note with such recourse, interest,
security and redemption provisions as the Administrator determines to be appropriate; (4) cancellation of indebtedness; (5) other Shares that (x) in the case of Shares acquired upon exercise of an Option, either have been owned by the Optionee for
more than six months on the date of surrender or such other period as may be required to avoid a charge to the Company’s earnings or were not acquired, directly or indirectly, from the Company, and (y) have a Fair Market Value on the date of
surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which such Option shall be exercised; (6) authorization for the Company to retain from the total number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised that number of Shares having a
Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the exercise price for the total number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised; (7) delivery of a properly executed exercise notice together with such other documentation as the Administrator
and the broker, if applicable, shall require to effect exercise of the Option and prompt delivery to the Company of the sale or loan proceeds required to pay the exercise price and any applicable withholding taxes; (8) any combination of the
foregoing methods of payment; or (9) such other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of Shares to the extent permitted under the Applicable Laws. In making its determination as to the type of consideration to accept, the
Administrator shall consider if acceptance of such consideration may be reasonably expected to benefit the Company, and the Administrator may refuse to accept a particular form of consideration at the time of any Option exercise if, in its sole
discretion, acceptance of such form of consideration is not in the best interests of the Company at such time. 
  
 9. Exercise of Option. 
  
 (a) Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Shareholder. Any Option granted hereunder shall be exercisable at such times and
under such conditions as determined by the Administrator, consistent with the term of the Plan and reflected in the Option Agreement, including vesting requirements and/or performance criteria with respect to the Company and/or the Optionee;
provided however, that, if required by the Applicable Laws, any Option granted prior to the date, if any, upon which the Common Stock becomes a Listed Security shall become exercisable at the rate of at least 20% per year over five years from the
date the Option is granted. In the event that any of the Shares issued upon exercise of an Option (which exercise occurs prior to the date, if any, upon which the Common Stock becomes a Listed Security) should be subject to a right of repurchase in
the Company’s favor, such repurchase right shall, if required by the Applicable Laws, lapse at the rate of at least 20% per year over five years from the date the Option is granted. Notwithstanding the above, in the case of an Option granted to
an officer, Director or Consultant of the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company, the Option may become fully exercisable, or a repurchase right, if any, in favor of the Company shall lapse, at any time or during any period
established by the Administrator. The Administrator 
  

 -8- 

 shall have the discretion to determine whether and to what extent the vesting of Options shall be tolled
during any unpaid leave of absence; provided however that in the absence of such determination, vesting of Options shall be tolled during any such leave. 
  
 An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. 
  
 An Option shall be deemed exercised when written notice of such exercise has been given to the Company in accordance with the terms of the Option by the
person entitled to exercise the Option and the Company has received full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised. Full payment may, as authorized by the Administrator, consist of any consideration and method of payment
allowable under Section 8(b) of the Plan. Until the issuance (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company) of the stock certificate evidencing such Shares, no right to vote
or receive dividends or any other rights as a shareholder shall exist with respect to the Optioned Stock, not withstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such stock certificate promptly upon exercise of
the Option. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the stock certificate is issued, except as provided in Section 12 of the Plan. 
  
 Exercise of an Option in any manner shall result in a decrease in the number
of Shares that thereafter may be available, both for purposes of the Plan and for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised. 
  
 (b) Termination of Employment or Consulting Relationship. In the event of termination of an
Optionee’s Continuous Service Status with the Company, such Optionee may, but only within three months (or such other period of time, not less than 30 days, as is determined by the Administrator, with such determination in the case of an
Incentive Stock Option being made at the time of grant of the Option) after the date of such termination (but in no event later than the expiration date of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement), exercise his or her Option to
the extent that the Optionee was entitled to exercise it at the date of such termination. To the extent that the Optionee was not entitled to exercise the Option at the date of such termination, or if the Optionee does not exercise the Option to the
extent so entitled within the time specified above, the Option shall terminate and the Optioned Stock underlying the unexercised portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, no termination shall
be deemed to occur and this Section 9(b) shall not apply if (i) the Optionee is a Consultant who becomes an Employee, or (ii) the Optionee is an Employee who becomes a Consultant. 
  
 (c) Disability of Optionee. 
  
 (i) Notwithstanding Section 9(b) above, in the event of termination of an Optionee’s Continuous Service
Status as a result of his or her total and permanent disability (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), such Optionee may, but only within twelve months (or such other period of time as is determined by the Administrator, with such
determination in the case of an Incentive Stock Option made at the time of grant of the Option) from the date of such termination (but in no event later than the expiration date of the term of 
  

 -9- 

 such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement), exercise the Option to the extent otherwise entitled
to exercise it at the date of such termination. To the extent that the Optionee was not entitled to exercise the Option at the date of termination, or if the Optionee does not exercise such Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified
above, the Option shall terminate and the Optioned Stock underlying the unexercised portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. 
  
 (ii) In the event of termination of an Optionee’s Continuous Service Status as a result of a disability which does not fall within
the meaning of total and permanent disability (as set forth in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), such Optionee may, but only within twelve months (or such other period of time as is determined by the Administrator, with such determination in the case
of an Incentive Stock Option made at the time of grant of the Option) from the date of such termination (but in no event later than the expiration date of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement), exercise the Option to the
extent otherwise entitled to exercise it at the date of such termination. However, to the extent that such Optionee fails to exercise an Option that is an Incentive Stock Option (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) within three months of
the date of such termination, the Option will not qualify for Incentive Stock Option treatment under the Code. To the extent that the Optionee was not entitled to exercise the Option at the date of termination, or if the Optionee does not exercise
such Option to the extent so entitled within the time period specified above, the Option shall terminate and the Optioned Stock underlying the unexercised portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. 
  
 (d) Death of Optionee. In the event of the
death of an Optionee during the period of Continuous Service Status since the date of grant of the Option, or within 30 days following termination of the Optionee’s Continuous Service Status, the Option may be exercised, at any time within
twelve months following the date of death (but in no event later than the expiration date of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement), by such Optionee’s estate or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option
by bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent of the right to exercise that had accrued at the date of death or, if earlier, the date of termination of the Optionee’s Continuous Service Status. To the extent that the Optionee was not
entitled to exercise the Option at the date of death or termination, as the case may be, or if the Optionee does not exercise such Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified above, the Option shall terminate and the Optioned Stock
underlying the unexercised portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. 
  
 (e) Extension of Exercise Period. The Administrator shall have full power and authority to extend the period of time for which an Option is to remain exercisable following termination of an
Optionee’s Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant from the periods set forth in Sections 9(b), 9(c) and 9(d) above or in the Option Agreement to such greater time as the Board shall deem appropriate, provided, that in no event shall
such Option be exercisable later than the date of expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement. 
  
 (f) Buy-Out Provisions. The Administrator may at any time offer to buy out for a payment in cash or Shares an Option
previously granted under the Plan based on such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the Optionee at the time such offer is made. 
  

 -10- 

 10. Stock Purchase Rights. 
  
 (a) Rights to Purchase. Stock Purchase Rights may be issued either alone, in addition to, or
in tandem with other awards granted under the Plan and/or cash awards made outside of the Plan. After the Administrator determines that it will offer Stock Purchase Rights under the Plan, it shall advise the offeree in writing of the terms,
conditions and restrictions related to the offer, including the number of Shares that such person shall be entitled to purchase, the price to be paid, and the time within which such person must accept such offer, which shall in no event exceed 30
days from the date upon which the Administrator made the determination to grant the Stock Purchase Right. If required by the Applicable Laws, the purchase price of Shares subject to Stock Purchase Rights shall not be less than 85% of the Fair Market
Value of the Shares as of the date of the offer, or, in the case of a person owning stock representing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the price shall not be less
than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares as of the date of the offer. If the Applicable Laws do not impose restrictions on the purchase price, the purchase price of Shares subject to Stock Purchase Rights shall be as determined by the
Administrator. The offer to purchase Shares subject to Stock Purchase Rights shall be accepted by execution of a Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement in the form determined by the Administrator. 
  
 (b) Repurchase Option. Unless the
Administrator determines otherwise, the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement shall grant the Company a repurchase option exercisable upon the voluntary or involuntary termination of the purchaser’s employment with the Company for any reason
(including death or disability). The purchase price for Shares repurchased pursuant to the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement shall be the original purchase price paid by the purchaser and may be paid by cancellation of any indebtedness of the
purchaser to the Company. The repurchase option shall lapse at such rate as the Administrator may determine; provided, however, that with respect to a purchaser who is not an officer, Director or Consultant of the Company or of any Parent or
Subsidiary of the Company, it shall lapse at a minimum rate of 20% per year if required by the Applicable Laws. 
  
 (c) Other Provisions. The Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement shall contain such other terms, provisions and conditions not
inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. In addition, the provisions of Restricted Stock Purchase Agreements need not be the same with respect to each purchaser. 
  
 (d) Rights as a Shareholder. Once the Stock
Purchase Right is exercised, the purchaser shall have the rights equivalent to those of a shareholder, and shall be a shareholder when his or her purchase is entered upon the records of the duly authorized transfer agent of the Company. No
adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Stock Purchase Right is exercised, except as provided in Section 12 of the Plan. 
  

 -11- 

 11. Taxes. 
  
 (a) As a condition of the exercise of an Option or Stock Purchase Right granted under the Plan, the
Participant (or in the case of the Participant’s death, the person exercising the Option) shall make such arrangements as the Administrator may require for the satisfaction of any applicable federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax
obligations that may arise in connection with the exercise of an Option or Stock Purchase Right and the issuance of Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue any Shares under the Plan until such obligations are satisfied. 
  
 (b) In the case of an Employee and in the absence of any
other arrangement, the Employee shall be deemed to have directed the Company to withhold or collect from his or her compensation an amount sufficient to satisfy such tax obligations from the next payroll payment otherwise payable after the date of
an exercise of the Option. 
  
 (c) This Section
11(c) shall apply only after the date, if any, upon which the Common Stock becomes a Listed Security. In the case of a Participant other than an Employee (or in the case of an Employee where the next payroll payment is not sufficient to satisfy such
tax obligations, with respect to any remaining tax obligations), in the absence of any other arrangement and to the extent permitted under the Applicable Laws, the Participant shall be deemed to have elected to have the Company withhold from the
Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Option or Stock Purchase Right that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value determined as of the applicable Tax Date (as defined below) equal to the amount required to be withheld. For purposes of this
Section 11, the Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld shall be determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined under the Applicable Laws (the “Tax Date”). 
  
 (d) If permitted by the Administrator, in its discretion, a
Participant may satisfy his or her tax withholding obligations upon exercise of an Option or Stock Purchase Right by surrendering to the Company Shares that (i) in the case of Shares previously acquired from the Company, have been owned by the
Participant for more than six months on the date of surrender, and (ii) have a Fair Market Value determined as of the applicable Tax Date equal to the amount required to be withheld. 
  
 (e) Any election or deemed election by a Participant to have Shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding
obligations under Section 11(c) or (d) above shall be irrevocable as to the particular Shares as to which the election is made and shall be subject to the consent or disapproval of the Administrator. Any election by a Participant under Section 11(d)
above must be made on or prior to the applicable Tax Date. 
  
 (f) In the event an election to have Shares withheld is made by a Participant and the Tax Date is deferred under Section 83 of the Code because no election is filed under Section 83(b) of the Code, the Participant
shall receive the full number of Shares with respect to which the Option or Stock Purchase Right is exercised but such Participant shall be unconditionally obligated to tender back to the Company the proper number of Shares on the Tax Date.

  

 -12- 

 12. Non-Transferability of Options and Stock Purchase Rights. Options and Stock Purchase
Rights may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution; provided however that, after the date, if any, upon which the Common Stock becomes a
Listed Security, the Administrator may in its discretion grant transferable Nonstatutory Stock Options pursuant to Option Agreements specifying (i) the manner in which such Nonstatutory Stock Options are transferable and (ii) that any such transfer
shall be subject to the Applicable Laws. The designation of a beneficiary by an Optionee will not constitute a transfer. An Option or Stock Purchase Right may be exercised, during the lifetime of the holder of the Option or Stock Purchase Right,
only by such holder or a transferee permitted by this Section 12. 
  
 13. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization, Corporate Transactions and Certain Other Transactions. 
  
 (a) Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the shareholders of the Company, the number of shares of
Common Stock covered by each outstanding Option or Stock Purchase Right, and the number of shares of Common Stock that have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Options or Stock Purchase Rights have yet been granted or that
have been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an Option or Stock Purchase Right, as well as the price per Share of Common Stock covered by each such outstanding Option or Stock Purchase Right, shall be proportionately adjusted
for any increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares of Common Stock resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination, recapitalization or reclassification of the Common Stock (including any change in the number
of Shares of Common Stock effected in connection with a change of domicile of the Company), or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however,
that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of consideration.” Such adjustment shall be made by the Administrator, whose determination in that respect shall be
final, binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be
made with respect to, the number or price of Shares of Common Stock subject to an Option or Stock Purchase Right. 
  
 (b) Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, each outstanding Option or
Stock Purchase Right shall terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such action, unless otherwise provided by the Administrator. 
  
 (c) Corporate Transactions; Change of Control. In the event of a Corporate Transaction, each outstanding Option and Stock
Purchase Right shall be assumed or an equivalent option or right shall be substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of such successor corporation (the “Successor Corporation”), unless the Successor Corporation does
not agree to assume the outstanding Options or Stock Purchase Rights or to substitute equivalent options or rights, in which case such Options or Stock Purchase Rights shall terminate upon the consummation of the transaction; provided however that
this Section 13(c) is subject to the terms included at the Administrator’s discretion in any Option Agreement or 
  

 -13- 

 Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement, including without limitation, terms providing for the acceleration
of vesting in the event of a Change of Control. 
  
 For purposes of this Section 13(c), an Option or a Stock Purchase Right shall be considered assumed, without limitation, if, at the time of issuance of the stock or other consideration upon a Corporate Transaction or a Change of Control, as
the case may be, each holder of an Option or Stock Purchase Right would be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Option or Stock Purchase Right the same number and kind of shares of stock or the same amount of property, cash or securities as such
holder would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of the transaction if the holder had been, immediately prior to such transaction, the holder of the number of Shares of Common Stock covered by the Option or the Stock Purchase Right at
such time (after giving effect to any adjustments in the number of Shares covered by the Option or Stock Purchase Right as provided for in this Section 13); provided however that if such consideration received in the transaction is not solely common
stock of the Successor Corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the Successor Corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon exercise of the Option or Stock Purchase Right to be solely common stock of the
Successor Corporation or its Parent equal to the Fair Market Value of the per Share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the transaction. 
  
 (d) Certain Distributions. In the event of any distribution to the Company’s shareholders of securities of any other
entity or other assets (other than dividends payable in cash or stock of the Company) without receipt of consideration by the Company, the Administrator may, in its discretion, appropriately adjust the price per Share of Common Stock covered by each
outstanding Option or Stock Purchase Right to reflect the effect of such distribution. 
  
 14. Time of Granting Options and Stock Purchase Rights. The date of grant of an Option or Stock Purchase Right shall, for all purposes, be the date on which the Administrator makes the determination
granting such Option or Stock Purchase Right, or such other date as is determined by the Administrator; provided, however, that in the case of any Incentive Stock Option, the grant date shall be the later of the date on which the Administrator makes
the determination granting such Incentive Stock Option or the date of commencement of the Optionee’s employment relationship with the Company. Notice of the determination shall be given to each Employee or Consultant to whom an Option or Stock
Purchase Right is so granted within a reasonable time after the date of such grant. 
  
 15. Amendment and Termination of the Plan. 
  
 (a) Authority to Amend or Terminate. The Board may at any time amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Plan, but
no amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination (other than an adjustment made pursuant to Section 13 above) shall be made that would materially and adversely affect the rights of any Optionee or holder of Stock Purchase Rights
under any outstanding grant, without his or her consent. In addition, to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with the Applicable Laws, the Company shall obtain shareholder approval of any Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree
as required. 
  

 -14- 

 (b) Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment or termination of the
Plan shall materially and adversely affect Options already granted, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Optionee and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Optionee and the Company. 
  
 16. Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares. Notwithstanding any
other provision of the Plan or any agreement entered into by the Company pursuant to the Plan, the Company shall not be obligated, and shall have no liability for, failure to issue or deliver any Shares under the Plan unless such issuance or
delivery would comply with the Applicable Laws, with such compliance determined by the Company in consultation with its legal counsel. 
  
 As a condition to the exercise of an Option or Stock Purchase Right, the Company may require the person exercising such Option or Stock Purchase Right to
represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation
is required by law. 
  
 17. Reservation of Shares.
The Company, during the term of this Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan. 
  
 18. Agreements. Options and Stock Purchase Rights shall be evidenced by Option Agreements and Restricted Stock
Purchase Agreements, respectively, in such form(s) as the Administrator shall from time to time approve. 
  
 19. Shareholder Approval. If required by the Applicable Laws, continuance of the Plan shall be subject to approval by the shareholders of
the Company within twelve months before or after the date the Plan is adopted. Such shareholder approval shall be obtained in the degree and manner required under the Applicable Laws. 
  
 20. Information and Documents to Optionees and Purchasers. Prior to the date, if any, upon which the Common
Stock becomes a Listed Security and if required by the Applicable Laws, the Company shall provide financial statements at least annually to each Optionee and to each individual who acquired Shares pursuant to the Plan, during the period such
Optionee or purchaser has one or more Options or Stock Purchase Rights outstanding, and in the case of an individual who acquired Shares pursuant to the Plan, during the period such individual owns such Shares. The Company shall not be required to
provide such information if the issuance of Options or Stock Purchase Rights under the Plan is limited to key employees whose duties in connection with the Company assure their access to equivalent information. In addition, at the time of issuance
of any securities under the Plan, the Company shall provide to the Optionee or the purchaser a copy of the Plan and any agreement(s) pursuant to which securities granted under the Plan are issued.

 NETLOGIC MICROSYSTEMS, INC. 
  
 2000 STOCK PLAN 
  
 STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT 
  
 1. Grant of Option. NetLogic Microsystems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby grants to [Fill in
name] (“Optionee”), an option (the “Option”) to purchase a total number of shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”) set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant, at the exercise
price per share set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant (the “Exercise Price”) subject to the terms, definitions and provisions of the NetLogic Microsystems, Inc. 2000 Stock Plan (the “Plan”)
adopted by the Company, which is incorporated herein by reference. Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the Plan shall have the same defined meanings in this Option. 
  
 If designated an Incentive Stock Option, this Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option as defined in
Section 422 of the Code. To the extent that the Option, or any portion thereof, does not qualify as an incentive stock option under the Code because the aggregate fair market value (determined as of the respective date or dates of grant) of the
Shares or other securities for which the Option or one or more other incentive stock options granted to the Optionee prior to the grant date (whether under the Plan or any other option plan of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary) first becomes
exercisable during the same calendar year, exceeds $100,000 in the aggregate, the Option or portion thereof shall constitute an incentive stock option under the Plan in such calendar year only to the extent of such $100,000 limitation. To the extent
that the fair market value of the Shares for which the Option first becomes exercisable in any calendar year exceeds such $100,000 limitation, the Option may nevertheless be exercised for those excess Shares in such calendar year as a
“Nonstatutory Stock Option,” as defined in Section 2(s) of the Plan. 
  
 2. Exercise of Option. This Option shall be exercisable during its Term in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set out in the Notice of Stock Option Grant and with the provisions of Section 9 of the
Plan as follows: 
  
 (a) Right to Exercise.

  
 (i) This Option may be exercised in whole or in part at any
time after the Date of Grant, as to Shares which have not yet vested under the vesting schedule indicated on the Notice of Stock Option Grant; provided, however, that Optionee shall execute as a condition to such exercise of this
Option, the Early Exercise Notice and Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Early Exercise Agreement”). If Optionee chooses to exercise this Option solely as to Shares which have vested
under the vesting schedule set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant, Optionee shall complete and execute the form of Exercise Notice and Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Exercise
Agreement”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may in its discretion prescribe or accept a different form of notice of 
  

 1 

 exercise and/or stock purchase agreement if such forms are otherwise consistent with this Agreement, the Plan and
then-applicable law. 
  
 (ii) This Option may not be exercised
for a fraction of a share. 
  
 (iii) In the event of
Optionee’s death, disability or other termination of employment, the exercisability of the Option is governed by Sections 5, 6 and 7 below, subject to the limitation contained in Section 2(a)(i). 
  
 (iv) In no event may this Option be exercised after the Expiration Date of
this Option as set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant. 
  
 (b) Method of Exercise. This Option shall be exercisable by execution and delivery of the Early Exercise Agreement or the Exercise Agreement, whichever is applicable, or of any other form of written notice approved for such
purpose by the Company which shall state the election to exercise the Option, the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is being exercised, and such other representations and agreements as to the holder’s investment intent with
respect to such shares of Common Stock as may be required by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. Such written notice shall be signed by Optionee and shall be delivered in person or by certified mail to the Secretary of the Company.
The written notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the aggregate Exercise Price for the Shares being purchased. This Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such written notice accompanied by the Exercise
Price. 
  
 No Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of an
Option unless such issuance and such exercise shall comply with all relevant provisions of applicable law and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Shares may then be listed. Assuming such compliance, for income tax purposes the
Shares shall be considered transferred to Optionee on the date on which the Option is exercised with respect to such Shares. 
  
 3. Method of Payment. Payment of the Exercise Price shall be by cash, check or any other method permitted under the Plan; provided however
that the Administrator may refuse to allow Optionee to tender a particular form of payment (other than cash or a valid and negotiable check) if, in the Administrator’s sole discretion, acceptance of such form of consideration would not be in
the best interests of the Company at such time. If permitted by the Administrator, the Optionee may elect to pay the exercise price by authorizing a third party to sell Shares subject to this Option and remit to the Company a sufficient portion of
the sale proceeds to pay the entire exercise price and any tax withholding resulting from such exercise. 
  
 4. Restrictions on Exercise. This Option may not be exercised until such time as the Plan has been approved by the stockholders of the
Company, or if the issuance of such Shares upon such exercise or the method of payment of consideration for such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable federal or state securities or other law or regulation, including any rule under
Part 221 of Title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulations as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board. As a condition to the exercise of this Option, the 
  

 2 

 Company may require Optionee to make any representation and warranty to the Company as may be required by any applicable
law or regulation. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the Optionee shall only be permitted to pay the purchase price with Shares of the Company’s Common Stock owned by the Optionee as of the exercise date in the manner and within the
time periods allowed under 17 CFR §240.16b-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as such regulation is in effect and interpreted by the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time. 
  
 5. Termination of Relationship. In the event of termination of
Optionee’s Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant, Optionee may, to the extent otherwise so entitled at the date of such termination (the “Termination Date”), exercise this Option during the Termination Period
set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant. To the extent that Optionee was not entitled to exercise this Option at such Termination Date, or if Optionee does not exercise this Option within the Termination Period, the Option shall terminate.

  
 6. Disability of Optionee. 
  
 (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5 above, in the event of
termination of Optionee’s Continuous Service Status as an Employee or Consultant as a result of Optionee’s total and permanent disability (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), Optionee may, but only within 12 months from the
Termination Date (but in no event later than the Expiration Date set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant), exercise this Option to the extent Optionee was entitled to exercise it as of the Termination Date. To the extent that Optionee was not
entitled to exercise the Option as of the Termination Date, or if Optionee does not exercise such Option (to the extent so entitled) within the time specified in this Section 6(a), the Option shall terminate. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5 above, in the event of
termination of Optionee’s Continuous Service Status as an Employee as a result of disability not constituting a total and permanent disability (as set forth in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), Optionee may, but only within 6 months from the
Termination Date (but in no event later than the Expiration Date set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant), exercise the Option to the extent Optionee was entitled to exercise it as of such Termination Date; provided, however, that if this is
an Incentive Stock Option and Optionee fails to exercise this Incentive Stock Option within three months from the Termination Date, this Option will cease to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option (as defined in Section 422 of the Code) and Optionee
will be treated for federal income tax purposes as having received ordinary income at the time of such exercise in an amount generally measured by the difference between the Exercise Price for the Shares and the Fair Market Value of the Shares on
the date of exercise. To the extent that Optionee was not entitled to exercise the Option at the Termination Date, or if Optionee does not exercise such Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified in this Section 6(b), the Option
shall terminate. 
  
 7. Death of Optionee. In the
event of the death of Optionee (a) during the Term of this Option and while an Employee or Consultant of the Company having been in Continuous Service Status as an Employee or Consultant since the date of grant of the 
  

 3 

 Option, or (b) within 30 days after Optionee’s Termination Date, the Option may be exercised at any time within 6
months following the date of death (but in no event later than the Expiration Date set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant), by Optionee’s estate or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, but
only to the extent of the right to exercise that had accrued at the Termination Date. 
  
 8. Corporate Transactions; Change of Control. Pursuant to Section 13(c) of the Plan, in the event of a Corporate Transaction, the Option shall be assumed or an equivalent option or right shall be
substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of such successor corporation (the “Successor Corporation”), unless the Successor Corporation does not agree to assume the Option or to substitute equivalent options or
rights, in which case the Options shall terminate upon the consummation of the transaction. 
  
 9. Non-Transferability of Option. This Option may not be transferred in any manner otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised during the lifetime of Optionee
only by him or her. The terms of this Option shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of Optionee. 
  
 10. Term of Option. This Option may be exercised only within the Term set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant, subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 7 of the Plan. 
  
 11. Tax
Consequences. 
  
 (a) Optionee’s
Responsibility. OPTIONEE SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISER BEFORE EXERCISING THIS OPTION OR DISPOSING OF THE SHARES. 
  
 (b) Notice of Disqualifying Disposition of Incentive Stock Option Shares. If the Option granted to Optionee herein is an Incentive Stock
Option, and if Optionee sells or otherwise disposes of any of the Shares acquired pursuant to the Incentive Stock Option on or before the later of (i) the date two years after the Date of Grant, or (ii) the date one year after the date of exercise,
Optionee shall immediately notify the Company in writing of such disposition. Optionee acknowledges and agrees that he or she may be subject to income tax withholding by the Company on the compensation income recognized by Optionee from the early
disposition by payment in cash or out of the current earnings paid to Optionee. 
  
 12. Withholding Tax Obligations. 
  
 (a) General Withholding Obligations. As a condition to the exercise of Option granted hereunder, Optionee shall make such arrangements as the Administrator may require for the satisfaction of any
federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with the exercise, receipt or vesting of the Option. The Company shall not be required to issue any Shares under the Plan until such obligations are satisfied.
Optionee understands that, upon exercising a Nonstatutory Stock Option, he or she will recognize income for tax purposes in an amount equal to the excess of the then Fair 
  

 4 

 Market Value of the Shares over the Exercise Price. If Optionee is an employee, the Company will be required to withhold
from Optionee’s compensation, or collect from Optionee and pay to the applicable taxing authorities an amount equal to a percentage of this compensation income. Additionally, Optionee may at some point be required to satisfy tax withholding
obligations with respect to the disqualifying disposition of an Incentive Stock Option. Optionee shall satisfy his or her tax withholding obligation arising upon the exercise of this Option by one or some combination of the following methods: (i) by
cash or check payment, (ii) out of Optionee’s current compensation, (iii) if permitted by the Administrator, in its discretion, by surrendering to the Company Shares which (A) in the case of Shares previously acquired from the Company, have
been owned by Optionee for more than six months on the date of surrender, and (B) have a Fair Market Value determined as of the applicable Tax Date (as defined in Section 12(c) below) on the date of surrender equal to the amount required to be
withheld, or (iv) by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Option, or the Shares to be issued in connection with the Stock Purchase Right, if any, that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value
determined as of the applicable Tax Date equal to the amount required to be withheld. 
  
 (b) Stock Withholding to Satisfy Withholding Tax Obligations. In the event the Administrator allows Optionee to satisfy his or her tax withholding obligations as provided in Section 12(a)(iii) or (iv)
above, such satisfaction must comply with the requirements of this Section 12(b) and all applicable laws. All elections by Optionee to have Shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations shall be made in writing in a form acceptable to the
Administrator and shall be subject to the following restrictions: 
  
 (i) the election must be made on or prior to the applicable Tax Date (as defined in Section 12(c) below); 
  
 (ii) once made, the election shall be irrevocable as to the particular Shares of the Option as to which the election is made; and 
  
 (iii) all elections shall be subject to the consent or disapproval of the
Administrator. 
  
 In the event the election to have Shares
withheld is made by Optionee and the Tax Date is deferred under Section 83 of the Code because no election is filed under Section 83(b) of the Code, Optionee shall receive the full number of Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised but
Optionee shall be unconditionally obligated to tender back to the Company the proper number of Shares on the Tax Date. 
  
 (c) Definitions. For purposes of this Section 12, the Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld shall be determined on the date that
the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined under the applicable laws (the “Tax Date”). 
  
 13. Market Stand-off Agreement. In connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities and upon request of the
Company or the underwriters managing 
  

 5 

 such underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, Optionee agrees not to sell, make any short sale of, loan,
grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of
time (not to exceed 180 days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of
the Company’s initial public offering. 
  
 14.
Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization or Merger. The number of Shares covered by this Option shall be adjusted in accordance with the provisions of Section 13(a) of the Plan in the event of changes in the capitalization or
organization of the Company, or if the Company is a party to a merger or other corporate reorganization.

 EXHIBIT A 
  

NETLOGIC MICROSYSTEMS, INC. 
  
 2000 STOCK PLAN 
  
 EARLY EXERCISE NOTICE AND RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT 
  
 This Agreement (“Agreement”) is made as of             , by and
between NetLogic Microsystems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and [Fill in name] (“Purchaser”). To the extent any capitalized terms used in this Agreement are not defined, they shall
have the meaning ascribed to them in the 2000 Stock Plan. 
  
 1.
Exercise of Option. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Purchaser hereby elects to exercise his or her option to purchase              shares of the Common Stock (the
“Shares”) of the Company under and pursuant to the Company’s 2000 Stock Plan (the “Plan”) and the Stock Option Agreement dated
             (the “Option Agreement”). Of these Shares, Purchaser has elected to purchase              of
those Shares which have become vested as of the date hereof under the Vesting Schedule set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant (the “Vested Shares”) and
             Shares which have not yet vested under such Vesting Schedule (the “Unvested Shares”). The purchase price for the Shares shall be $[Fill in share price]
per Share for a total purchase price of $            . The term “Shares” refers to the purchased Shares and all securities received in replacement of the Shares or
as stock dividends or splits, all securities received in replacement of the Shares in a recapitalization, merger, reorganization, exchange or the like, and all new, substituted or additional securities or other properties to which Purchaser is
entitled by reason of Purchaser’s ownership of the Shares. 
  
 2. Time and Place of Exercise. The purchase and sale of the Shares under this Agreement shall occur at the principal office of the Company simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement in accordance with the
provisions of Section 2(b) of the Option Agreement. On such date, the Company will deliver to Purchaser a certificate representing the Shares to be purchased by Purchaser (which shall be issued in Purchaser’s name) against payment of the
purchase price therefor by Purchaser by (a) check made payable to the Company, (b) cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to Purchaser, (c) delivery of shares of the Common Stock of the Company in accordance with Section 3 of the Option
Agreement, (d) or (e) a combination of the foregoing. 
  
 3.
Limitations on Transfer. In addition to any other limitation on transfer created by applicable securities laws, Purchaser shall not assign, encumber or dispose of any interest in the Shares while the Shares are subject to the
Company’s Repurchase Option (as defined below). After any Shares have been released from such Repurchase Option, Purchaser shall not assign, encumber or dispose of any interest in such Shares except in compliance with the provisions below and
applicable securities laws. 
  
 (a) Repurchase
Option. 
  
 (i) In the event of the voluntary or
involuntary termination of Purchaser’s employment or consulting relationship with the Company, or a Successor 
  

 1 

 Corporation upon a Change of Control, for any reason (including death or disability), with or without cause, the Company
shall upon the date of such termination (the “Termination Date”) have an irrevocable, exclusive option (the “Repurchase Option”) for a period of 60 days from such date to repurchase all or any portion
of the Unvested Shares held by Purchaser as of the Termination Date which have not yet been released from the Company’s Repurchase Option at Purchaser’s original purchase price per Share as specified in Section 1 (adjusted for any stock
splits, stock dividends and the like). 
  
 (ii) The Repurchase
Option shall be exercised by the Company by written notice to Purchaser or Purchaser’s executor and, at the Company’s option, (A) by delivery to Purchaser or Purchaser’s executor with such notice of a check in the amount of the
purchase price for the Shares being purchased, or (B) in the event Purchaser is indebted to the Company, by cancellation by the Company of an amount of such indebtedness equal to the purchase price for the Shares being repurchased, or (C) by a
combination of (A) and (B) so that the combined payment and cancellation of indebtedness equals such purchase price. Upon delivery of such notice and payment of the purchase price in any of the ways described above, the Company shall become the
legal and beneficial owner of the Shares being repurchased and all rights and interest therein or related thereto, and the Company shall have the right to transfer to its own name the number of Shares being repurchased by the Company, without
further action by Purchaser. 
  
 (iii) One hundred percent of the
Unvested Shares shall initially be subject to the Repurchase Option. The Unvested Shares shall be released from the Repurchase Option in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant until all Shares are released
from the Repurchase Option. Fractional shares shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. 
  
 (b) Right of First Refusal. Before any Shares held by Purchaser or any transferee of Purchaser (either being sometimes referred to herein as the “Holder”) may be sold or otherwise
transferred (including transfer by gift or operation of law), the Company or its assignee(s) shall have a right of first refusal to purchase the Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3(b) (the “Right of First
Refusal”). 
  
 (i) Notice of Proposed
Transfer. The Holder of the Shares shall deliver to the Company a written notice (the “Notice”) stating: (i) the Holder’s bona fide intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (ii) the name of each
proposed purchaser or other transferee (“Proposed Transferee”); (iii) the number of Shares to be transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and (iv) the terms and conditions of each proposed sale or transfer. The Holder shall
offer the Shares at the same price (the “Offered Price”) and upon the same terms (or terms as similar as reasonably possible) to the Company or its assignee(s). 
  
 (ii) Exercise of Right of First Refusal. At any time within 30 days after receipt of the Notice, the Company
and/or its assignee(s) may, by giving written notice to the Holder, elect to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Shares proposed to be transferred to 
  

 2 

 any one or more of the Proposed Transferees, at the purchase price determined in accordance with subsection (iii) below.

  
 (iii) Purchase Price. The purchase price
(“Purchase Price”) for the Shares purchased by the Company or its assignee(s) under this Section 3(b) shall be the Offered Price. If the Offered Price includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the
non-cash consideration shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith. 
  
 (iv) Payment. Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at the option of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (paid by check), by
cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the Holder to the Company (or, in the case of repurchase by an assignee, to the assignee), or by any combination thereof within 30 days after receipt of the Notice or in the manner
and at the times set forth in the Notice. 
  
 (v)
Holder’s Right to Transfer. If all of the Shares proposed in the Notice to be transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section 3(b), then the Holder may
sell or otherwise transfer such Shares to that Proposed Transferee at the Offered Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other transfer is consummated within 60 days after the date of the Notice and provided further that any such
sale or other transfer is effected in accordance with any applicable securities laws and the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that the provisions of this Section 3 shall continue to apply to the Shares in the hands of such Proposed Transferee.
If the Shares described in the Notice are not transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such period, or if the Holder proposes to change the price or other terms to make them more favorable to the Proposed Transferee, a new Notice shall be given
to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees shall again be offered the Right of First Refusal before any Shares held by the Holder may be sold or otherwise transferred. 
  
 (vi) Exception for Certain Family Transfers. Anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3(b)
notwithstanding, the transfer of any or all of the Shares during Purchaser’s lifetime or on Purchaser’s death by will or intestacy to Purchaser’s Immediate Family (as defined below) or a trust for the benefit of Purchaser’s
Immediate Family shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section 3(b). “Immediate Family” as used herein shall mean spouse, lineal descendant or antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister. In such case, the transferee
or other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares so transferred subject to the provisions of this Section, and there shall be no further transfer of such Shares except in accordance with the terms of this Section 3. 
  
 (c) Involuntary Transfer. 
  
 (i) Company’s Right to Purchase upon Involuntary Transfer.
In the event, at any time after the date of this Agreement, of any transfer by operation of law or other involuntary transfer (including divorce or death, but excluding, in the event of death, a transfer to Immediate Family as set forth in
Section 3(b)(vi) above) of all or a portion of the Shares by the record holder thereof, the Company shall have the right to purchase all of the Shares transferred at the greater of the purchase price paid by Purchaser pursuant to this 
  

 3 

 Agreement or the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of transfer. Upon such a transfer, the person acquiring the
Shares shall promptly notify the Secretary of the Company of such transfer. The right to purchase such Shares shall be provided to the Company for a period of 30 days following receipt by the Company of written notice by the person acquiring the
Shares. 
  
 (ii) Price for Involuntary Transfer.
With respect to any stock to be transferred pursuant to Section 3(c)(i), the price per Share shall be a price set by the Board of Directors of the Company that will reflect the current value of the stock in terms of present earnings and future
prospects of the Company. The Company shall notify Purchaser or his or her executor of the price so determined within 30 days after receipt by it of written notice of the transfer or proposed transfer of Shares. However, if the Purchaser does not
agree with the valuation as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company, the Purchaser shall be entitled to have the valuation determined by an independent appraiser to be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Purchaser and whose fees
shall be borne equally by the Company and the Purchaser. 
  
 (d)
Assignment. The right of the Company to purchase any part of the Shares may be assigned in whole or in part to any shareholder or shareholders of the Company or other persons or organizations. 
  
 (e) Restrictions Binding on Transferees. All transferees of
Shares or any interest therein will receive and hold such Shares or interest subject to the provisions of this Agreement, including, insofar as applicable, the Repurchase Option. Any sale or transfer of the Shares shall be void unless the provisions
of this Agreement are satisfied. 
  
 (f) Termination of
Rights. The Right of First Refusal and the Company’s right to repurchase the Shares in the event of an involuntary transfer pursuant to Section 3(c) above shall terminate upon the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general
public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or upon effectiveness of the
Company’s registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act. 
  
 (g) Market Stand-off Agreement. In connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities and upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing such underwritten offering of the Company’s
securities, Purchaser agrees not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of
the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed 180 days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement
reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the Company’s initial public offering. 
  
 4. Investment Representations. In connection with the purchase of the Shares, Purchaser represents to the Company the following: 

 
 (a) Purchaser is aware of the Company’s business affairs and
financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and 
  

 4 

 knowledgeable decision to acquire the Shares. Purchaser is purchasing the Shares for investment for his or her own
account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act. 
  
 (b) Purchaser understands that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption
depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Purchaser’s investment intent as expressed herein. 
  
 (c) Purchaser understands that the Shares are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant
to these laws, Purchaser must hold the Shares indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available.
Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Shares for resale. Purchaser further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various
requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Shares, and requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser’s control, and which the Company is under no obligation and
may not be able to satisfy. 
  
 5. Restrictive Legends and
Stop-Transfer Orders. 
  
 (a) Legends. The
certificate or certificates representing the Shares shall bear the following legends (as well as any legends required by applicable state and federal corporate and securities laws): 
  

	 	(i)	THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS INSTRUMENT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”) AND ARE “RESTRICTED
SECURITIES” AS DEFINED IN RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER THE ACT. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED FOR SALE OR OTHERWISE DISTRIBUTED EXCEPT (i) IN CONJUNCTION WITH AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE ACT OR
(ii) IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144, OR (iii) PURSUANT TO AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION OR COMPLIANCE IS NOT REQUIRED AS TO SAID SALE, OFFER OR DISTRIBUTION. 

  

	 	(ii)	THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF A RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE STOCKHOLDER, A
COPY OF 

  

 5 

	 	 
WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY. 

  
 (b) Stop-Transfer Notices. Purchaser agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred
to herein, the Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records.

  
 (c) Refusal to Transfer. The Company shall not
be required (i) to transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any
purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred. 
  
 (d) Removal of Legend. When all of the following events have occurred, the Shares then held by Purchaser will no longer be subject to the legend referred to in Section 5(a)(ii): (i) the termination of
the Right of First Refusal; (ii) the expiration or termination of the market standoff provisions of Section 3(g) (and of any agreement entered pursuant to Section 3(g)); and (iii) the expiration or exercise in full of the Repurchase Option. After
such time, and upon Purchaser’s request, a new certificate or certificates representing the Shares not repurchased shall be issued without the legend referred to in Section 5(a)(ii), and delivered to Purchaser. 
  
 7. No Employment Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect
in any manner whatsoever the right or power of the Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, to terminate Purchaser’s employment or consulting relationship, for any reason, with or without cause. 
  
 8. Section 83(b) Election. Purchaser understands that Section
83(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), taxes as ordinary income for a Nonstatutory Stock Option and as alternative minimum taxable income for an Incentive Stock Option the difference between the
amount paid for the Shares and the Fair Market Value of the Shares as of the date any restrictions on the Shares lapse. In this context, “restriction” means the right of the Company to buy back the Shares pursuant to the
Repurchase Option set forth in Section 3(a) of this Agreement. Purchaser understands that Purchaser may elect to be taxed at the time the Shares are purchased, rather than when and as the Repurchase Option expires, by filing an election under
Section 83(b) (an “83(b) Election”) of the Code with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days from the date of purchase. Even if the Fair Market Value of the Shares at the time of the execution of this Agreement equals the
amount paid for the Shares, the election must be made to avoid income and alternative minimum tax treatment under Section 83(a) in the future. Purchaser understands that failure to file such an election in a timely manner may result in adverse tax
consequences for Purchaser. Purchaser further understands that an additional copy of such election form should be filed with his or her federal income tax return for the calendar year in which the date of this Agreement falls. Purchaser acknowledges
that the foregoing is only a summary of the effect of United States federal income taxation with respect to purchase of the Shares hereunder, and does not purport to be complete. Purchaser further acknowledges that the Company has directed Purchaser
to seek independent advice regarding the applicable 
  

 6 

 provisions of the Code, the income tax laws of any municipality, state or foreign country in which Purchaser may reside,
and the tax consequences of Purchaser’s death. 
  
 Purchaser
agrees that he or she will execute and deliver to the Company with this executed Agreement a copy of the Acknowledgment and Statement of Decision Regarding Section 83(b) Election (the “Acknowledgment”) attached hereto as
Attachment B. Purchaser further agrees that he or she will execute and submit with the Acknowledgment a copy of the 83(b) Election attached hereto as Attachment C (for tax purposes in connection with the early exercise of an option) if
Purchaser has indicated in the Acknowledgment his or her decision to make such an election. 
  
 9. Miscellaneous. 
  
 (a) Governing Law. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of
California, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws. 
  
 (b) Entire Agreement; Enforcement of Rights. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding of the parties relating to the subject matter herein and merges all prior discussions between them. No modification
of or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the parties to this Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights under this Agreement shall not be
construed as a waiver of any rights of such party. 
  
 (c)
Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable
and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, (ii) the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of the Agreement shall
be enforceable in accordance with its terms. 
  
 (d)
Construction. This Agreement is the result of negotiations between and has been reviewed by each of the parties hereto and their respective counsel, if any; accordingly, this Agreement shall be deemed to be the product of all of the
parties hereto, and no ambiguity shall be construed in favor of or against any one of the parties hereto. 
  
 (e) Notices. Any notice required or permitted by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficient when delivered personally
or sent by telegram or fax or 48 hours after being deposited in the U.S. mail, as certified or registered mail, with postage prepaid, and addressed to the party to be notified at such party’s address as set forth below or as subsequently
modified by written notice. 
  
 (f) Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one instrument. 
  

 7 

 (g) Successors and Assigns. The rights and benefits of this Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of, and be enforceable by the Company’s successors and assigns. The rights and obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement may only be assigned with the prior written consent of the Company. 
  
 (h) California Corporate Securities Law. THE SALE OF THE
SECURITIES WHICH ARE THE SUBJECT OF THIS AGREEMENT HAS NOT BEEN QUALIFIED WITH THE COMMISSIONER OF CORPORATIONS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND THE ISSUANCE OF THE SECURITIES OR THE PAYMENT OR RECEIPT OF ANY PART OF THE CONSIDERATION THEREFOR PRIOR
TO THE QUALIFICATION IS UNLAWFUL, UNLESS THE SALE OF SECURITIES IS EXEMPT FROM QUALIFICATION BY SECTION 25100, 25102 OR 25105 OF THE CALIFORNIA CORPORATIONS CODE. THE RIGHTS OF ALL PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT ARE EXPRESSLY CONDITIONED UPON THE
QUALIFICATION BEING OBTAINED, UNLESS THE SALE IS SO EXEMPT.

 EXHIBIT B 
  

NETLOGIC MICROSYSTEMS, INC. 
  
 2000 STOCK PLAN 
  
 EXERCISE NOTICE AND RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT 
  
 This Agreement (“Agreement”) is made as of
                                    , by and between NetLogic
Microsystems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and [Fill in name] (“Purchaser”). To the extent any capitalized terms used in this Agreement are not defined, they shall have the meaning
ascribed to them in the 2000 Stock Plan. 
  
 1. Exercise of
Option. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Purchaser hereby elects to exercise his or her option to purchase
                     shares of the Common Stock (the “Shares”) of the Company under and pursuant to the Company’s
2000 Stock Plan (the “Plan”) and the Stock Option Agreement dated
                                , (the “Option
Agreement”). The purchase price for the Shares shall be $[Fill in price per share] per Share for a total purchase price of
$                    . The term “Shares” refers to the purchased Shares and all securities received in replacement of the Shares or
as stock dividends or splits, all securities received in replacement of the Shares in a recapitalization, merger, reorganization, exchange or the like, and all new, substituted or additional securities or other properties to which Purchaser is
entitled by reason of Purchaser’s ownership of the Shares. 
  
 2. Time and Place of Exercise. The purchase and sale of the Shares under this Agreement shall occur at the principal office of the Company simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement in accordance with the
provisions of Section 2(b) of the Option Agreement. On such date, the Company will deliver to Purchaser a certificate representing the Shares to be purchased by Purchaser (which shall be issued in Purchaser’s name) against payment of the
exercise price therefor by Purchaser by (a) check made payable to the Company, (b) cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to Purchaser, (c) delivery of shares of the Common Stock of the Company in accordance with Section 3 of the Option
Agreement, or (d) a combination of the foregoing. 
  
 3.
Limitations on Transfer. In addition to any other limitation on transfer created by applicable securities laws, Purchaser shall not assign, encumber or dispose of any interest in the Shares except in compliance with the provisions
below and applicable securities laws. 
  
 (a) Right of First
Refusal. Before any Shares held by Purchaser or any transferee of Purchaser (either being sometimes referred to herein as the “Holder”) may be sold or otherwise transferred (including transfer by gift or operation of
law), the Company or its assignee(s) shall have a right of first refusal to purchase the Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3(a) (the “Right of First Refusal”). 
  
 (i) Notice of Proposed Transfer. The Holder of the Shares
shall deliver to the Company a written notice (the “Notice”) stating: (i) the Holder’s bona fide intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (ii) the name of each proposed purchaser or other transferee
(“Proposed Transferee”); (iii) the number of Shares to be transferred to each 
  

 1 

 Proposed Transferee; and (iv) the terms and conditions of each proposed sale or transfer. The Holder shall offer the
Shares at the same price (the “Offered Price”) and upon the same terms (or terms as similar as reasonably possible) to the Company or its assignee(s). 
  
 (ii) Exercise of Right of First Refusal. At any time within 30 days after receipt of the Notice, the Company
and/or its assignee(s) may, by giving written notice to the Holder, elect to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Shares proposed to be transferred to any one or more of the Proposed Transferees, at the purchase price determined in accordance
with subsection (iii) below. 
  
 (iii) Purchase
Price. The purchase price (“Purchase Price”) for the Shares purchased by the Company or its assignee(s) under this Section 3(a) shall be the Offered Price. If the Offered Price includes consideration other than cash,
the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith. 
  
 (iv) Payment. Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at the option of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check), by
cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the Holder to the Company (or, in the case of repurchase by an assignee, to the assignee), or by any combination thereof within 30 days after receipt of the Notice or in the manner
and at the times set forth in the Notice. 
  
 (v)
Holder’s Right to Transfer. If all of the Shares proposed in the Notice to be transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section 3(a), then the Holder may
sell or otherwise transfer such Shares to that Proposed Transferee at the Offered Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other transfer is consummated within 60 days after the date of the Notice and provided further that any such
sale or other transfer is effected in accordance with any applicable securities laws and the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that the provisions of this Section 3 shall continue to apply to the Shares in the hands of such Proposed Transferee.
If the Shares described in the Notice are not transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such period, or if the Holder proposes to change the price or other terms to make them more favorable to the Proposed Transferee, a new Notice shall be given
to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees shall again be offered the Right of First Refusal before any Shares held by the Holder may be sold or otherwise transferred. 
  
 (vi) Exception for Certain Family Transfers. Anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3(a)
notwithstanding, the transfer of any or all of the Shares during Purchaser’s lifetime or on Purchaser’s death by will or intestacy to Purchaser’s Immediate Family (as defined below) or a trust for the benefit of Purchaser’s
Immediate Family shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section 3(a). “Immediate Family” as used herein shall mean spouse, lineal descendant or antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister. In such case, the transferee
or other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares so transferred subject to the provisions of this Section, and there shall be no further transfer of such Shares except in accordance with the terms of this Section 3. 
  

 2 

 (b) Involuntary Transfer. 
  
 (i) Company’s Right to Purchase upon Involuntary Transfer. In the event, at any time after the date of
this Agreement, of any transfer by operation of law or other involuntary transfer (including divorce or death, but excluding, in the event of death, a transfer to Immediate Family as set forth in Section 3(a)(vi) above) of all or a portion of the
Shares by the record holder thereof, the Company shall have the right to purchase all of the Shares transferred at the greater of the purchase price paid by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement or the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of
transfer. Upon such a transfer, the person acquiring the Shares shall promptly notify the Secretary of the Company of such transfer. The right to purchase such Shares shall be provided to the Company for a period of 30 days following receipt by the
Company of written notice by the person acquiring the Shares. 
  
 (ii) Price for Involuntary Transfer. With respect to any stock to be transferred pursuant to Section 3(b)(i), the price per Share shall be a price set by the Board of Directors of the Company that will reflect the current
value of the stock in terms of present earnings and future prospects of the Company. The Company shall notify Purchaser or his or her executor of the price so determined within 30 days after receipt by it of written notice of the transfer or
proposed transfer of Shares. However, if the Purchaser does not agree with the valuation as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company, the Purchaser shall be entitled to have the valuation determined by an independent appraiser to be
mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Purchaser and whose fees shall be borne equally by the Company and the Purchaser. 
  
 (c) Assignment. The right of the Company to purchase any part of the Shares may be assigned in whole or in part to any stockholder or
stockholders of the Company or other persons or organizations. 
  
 (d) Restrictions Binding on Transferees. All transferees of Shares or any interest therein will receive and hold such Shares or interest subject to the provisions of this Agreement. Any sale or transfer of the Shares shall be
void unless the provisions of this Agreement are satisfied. 
  
 (e) Termination of Rights. The Right of First Refusal and the Company’s right to repurchase the Shares in the event of an involuntary transfer pursuant to Section 3(b) above shall terminate upon the first sale of Common
Stock of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)
or upon the effectiveness of the Company’s registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act. 
  
 (f) Market Stand-off Agreement. In connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities and upon request of the
Company or the underwriters managing such underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, Purchaser agrees not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company
(other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to 
  

 3 

 exceed 180 days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Company or such managing
underwriters and to execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the Company’s initial public offering. 
  
 4. Investment and Taxation Representations. In connection with the purchase of the Shares, Purchaser
represents to the Company the following: 
  
 (a) Purchaser is
aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Shares. Purchaser is purchasing the Shares for investment
for his or her own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act. 
  
 (b) Purchaser understands that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific
exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Purchaser’s investment intent as expressed herein. 
  
 (c) Purchaser understands that the Shares are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant
to these laws, Purchaser must hold the Shares indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available.
Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Shares for resale. Purchaser further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various
requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Shares, and requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser’s control, and which the Company is under no obligation and
may not be able to satisfy. 
  
 (d) Purchaser understands that
Purchaser may suffer adverse tax consequences as a result of Purchaser’s purchase or disposition of the Shares. Purchaser represents that Purchaser has consulted any tax consultants as Purchaser has deemed advisable in connection with the
purchase or disposition of the Shares and that Purchaser is not relying on the Company for any tax advice. 
  
 5. Restrictive Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders. 
  
 (a) Legends. The certificate or certificates representing the Shares shall bear the following legends (as well as any legends required by
applicable state and federal corporate and securities laws): 
  

	 	(i)	THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS INSTRUMENT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”) AND ARE “RESTRICTED
SECURITIES” AS DEFINED IN RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER THE ACT. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED FOR SALE OR OTHERWISE DISTRIBUTED EXCEPT (i) IN 

  

 4 

 CONJUNCTION WITH AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE ACT OR (ii) IN
COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144, OR (iii) PURSUANT TO AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION OR COMPLIANCE IS NOT REQUIRED AS TO SAID SALE, OFFER OR DISTRIBUTION. 
  

	 	(ii)	THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF A RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE STOCKHOLDER, A
COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY. 

  
 (b) Stop-Transfer Notices. Purchaser agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its
transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records. 
  
 (c) Refusal to Transfer. The Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise
transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred.

  
 (d) Removal of Legend. When all of the following
events have occurred, the Shares then held by Purchaser will no longer be subject to the legend referred to in Section 5(a)(ii): (i) the termination of the Right of First Refusal; and (ii) the expiration or termination of the market standoff
provisions of Section 3(f) (and of any agreement entered pursuant to Section 3(f)). After such time, and upon Purchaser’s request, a new certificate or certificates representing the Shares not repurchased shall be issued without the legend
referred to in Section 5(a)(ii), and delivered to Purchaser. 
  
 6. No Employment Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or power of the Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, to terminate Purchaser’s employment or consulting
relationship, for any reason, with or without cause. 
  
 7.
Miscellaneous. 
  
 (a) Governing Law.
This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to
principles of conflicts of laws. 
  

 5 

 (b) Entire Agreement; Enforcement of Rights. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement
and understanding of the parties relating to the subject matter herein and merges all prior discussions between them. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, shall be effective unless in
writing signed by the parties to this Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights under this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any rights of such party. 
  
 (c) Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable
law, the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, (ii)
the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of the Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. 
  
 (d) Construction. This Agreement is the result of negotiations between and has been reviewed by each of the
parties hereto and their respective counsel, if any; accordingly, this Agreement shall be deemed to be the product of all of the parties hereto, and no ambiguity shall be construed in favor of or against any one of the parties hereto. 
  
 (e) Notices. Any notice required or permitted by this Agreement
shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficient when delivered personally or sent by telegram or fax or 48 hours after being deposited in the U.S. mail, as certified or registered mail, with postage prepaid, and addressed to the party to be
notified at such party’s address as set forth below or as subsequently modified by written notice. 
  
 (f) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which
together shall constitute one instrument. 
  
 (g) Successors
and Assigns. The rights and benefits of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by the Company’s successors and assigns. The rights and obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement may only be assigned with the
prior written consent of the Company. 
  
 (h) California
Corporate Securities Law. THE SALE OF THE SECURITIES WHICH ARE THE SUBJECT OF THIS AGREEMENT HAS NOT BEEN QUALIFIED WITH THE COMMISSIONER OF CORPORATIONS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND THE ISSUANCE OF THE SECURITIES OR THE PAYMENT OR RECEIPT
OF ANY PART OF THE CONSIDERATION THEREFOR PRIOR TO THE QUALIFICATION IS UNLAWFUL, UNLESS THE SALE OF SECURITIES IS EXEMPT FROM QUALIFICATION BY SECTION 25100, 25102 OR 25105 OF THE CALIFORNIA CORPORATIONS CODE. THE RIGHTS OF ALL PARTIES TO THIS
AGREEMENT ARE EXPRESSLY CONDITIONED UPON THE QUALIFICATION BEING OBTAINED, UNLESS THE SALE IS SO EXEMPT.
