 EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
  
 THIS AGREEMENT, effective August 1, 2003 (the “Agreement”), is made and entered into by and between SIRENZA MICRODEVICES, INC. (the “Company”) and Robert Van Buskirk (“Executive”).

  
 WHEREAS, the Company wishes to engage Executive as the
Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer as part of the Company’s continuing efforts to build stockholder value; and 
  
 WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, comprised solely of disinterested directors, has determined to provide
Executive with this employment agreement, including the severance package and other benefits provided hereby, for the purpose of inducing Executive to continue serving in his capacity as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and
to induce Executive to move to the Company’s new corporate headquarters located in Broomfield Colorado, and further to provide diligent and efficacious services to the Company during his employment. 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree
as follows: 
  
 I. Employment. The Company
hereby employs Executive, and Executive hereby accepts employment, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. 
  
 II. Term. Subject to the provisions for termination as hereinafter provided, the term of this Agreement is for a period
commencing August 1, 2003, and expiring August 1, 2005 (the “Initial Term”). On August 1 of each year, beginning in 2005, the term of this Agreement shall be automatically extended for an additional year (each such one-year
extension period, a “Renewal Term”) without any further action on the part of the Company or Executive unless terminated under the provisions of Section X of this Agreement; provided, however, that the term of this Agreement shall
not be so extended in the event that the Company or the Executive, in their sole discretion, has provided written notice to the other party at least sixty (60) days prior to such automatic extension date that this Agreement shall not be so extended.
As used in this Agreement, the “Employment Period” shall mean the Initial Term or any Renewal Term in effect, as the case may be. 
  
 III. Duties. Executive is engaged as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, to have complete responsibility for
and authority over the management of the Company and shall have full authority and responsibility, subject only to the direction of the Company’s Board of Directors, for administering the operations of the Company in all respects. The duties
and responsibilities of the Executive shall include the duties and responsibilities for the Executive’s corporate offices and positions as set forth in the Company’s bylaws from time to time in effect and such other duties and
responsibilities as the Company’s Board of Directors may from time to time reasonably assign to the Executive, in all cases to be consistent with the Executive’s corporate offices and positions. In addition, the Executive shall serve as a
director of the Company without additional compensation. 
  
 IV. Extent of Services. Executive shall faithfully, industriously, and to the best of his ability, experience, and talents, perform all of the duties that may be required of and from him pursuant to this
Agreement. Nothing herein shall be construed as preventing Executive from (a) investing his assets in such form or manner as will not require any services on the part of Executive, unless Executive discloses in writing to the Company the extent of
such services and receives written authorization to provide such services, in the operations or the affairs of the companies in which such investments are made or (b) serving as a director, advisor, or consultant to a third party; provided,
however, that such investments or services may not be in connection with a business which is in competition with the Company (excluding (i) indirect investments through mutual funds or other broad based investment vehicles, (ii) investments
in debt instruments, and (iii) purchases or acquisitions of less than 5% of any class of securities of any enterprise (but without otherwise participating in the activities of such enterprise) if such securities are listed on any national or
regional securities exchange or have been registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act.). For purposes hereof, “in competition with the Company” shall be construed consistently with Section IX hereof. 
  
 V. Other Activities. The Executive shall devote
substantially all of his working time and efforts during the Company’s normal business hours to the business and affairs of the Company and its subsidiaries and to the diligent and faithful performance of the duties and responsibilities duly
assigned to him pursuant to this Agreement, except for vacations, holidays and sickness. However, the Executive may devote a reasonable amount of his time to civic, community, or charitable activities and, with the prior written approval of the
Board of Directors, to serve as a director of other corporations and to other types of business or public activities not expressly mentioned in this paragraph. 
  

VI. Place of Employment. The Executive’s services shall initially be performed at the Company’s offices in
Torrance, California. The parties acknowledge, however, that the Executive may be required to travel in connection with the performance of his duties hereunder and Executive is being asked to transfer to the Company’s new principal executive
offices located in Broomfield, Colorado. The parties further acknowledge and agree that Executive’s transfer to the Company’s Broomfield, Colorado office shall not constitute a change in the location of Executive’s principal place of
employment by the Company for purposes of paragraph G.2.f of Section X hereof. 

 VII. Compensation and Employee Benefits. 
  
 A. Annual Base Salary. For all services rendered by Executive
under this Agreement, the Company shall pay Executive during the term of this Agreement a base salary, payable in equal periodic installments in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices, as such may be amended from time to time,
at an annual rate of not less than $275,000. The amount of such base salary shall be reviewed at least once each fiscal year by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. 
  
 B. Stock Options. Executive shall be eligible for future stock
option grants at the same time and based on the same criteria as other executive officers of the Company. 
  
 C. Bonus Compensation. Executive may receive bonuses, payable in cash or shares of the Company’s stock, as may be determined
from time to time by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, on the basis of: (i) Executive’s success in meeting his personal performance goals, as established by the Compensation
Committee of the Board of Directors; (ii) Executive’s merit, including but not limited to the quality of the services provided by Executive and his industriousness and diligence in performing such services; and (iii) the Company’s
financial success and progress in the prior fiscal year. 
  
 D.
Vacation and Holidays. Executive shall be entitled to accrue five (5) weeks of paid vacation for each year of service provided. Any accrued but unused vacation time shall be carried over to successive years in accordance with the
Company’s published vacation accrual policies and shall be paid to Executive at or before the termination of his employment, in accordance with Company policy. Executive shall be entitled to paid Company holidays in accordance with the
Company’s policies in effect from time to time for its senior executive officers. 
  
 E. Executive Benefits. Executive shall be entitled to receive all of the rights, benefits, and privileges of an employee and an executive officer under any generally applicable retirement, pension,
profit-sharing, insurance, health and hospital, or other employee benefit plans which may be now in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company, subject in all cases to the extent that his position, tenure, salary, age, health and other
qualifications make him eligible to participate, and subject to the rules and regulations applicable thereto.  
  
 F. Working Facilities. Executive shall be furnished with a private office, business tools, and such other facilities and services suitable
to Executive’s position and adequate for the performance of the duties required by this Agreement.  
  
 G. Expenses. Subject to limits which may be imposed by the Board of Directors, including any committee thereof, Executive is
authorized to incur reasonable expenses in connection with his responsibilities in conducting the business of the Company, including expenses for entertainment, travel, and similar items. The Company will reimburse Executive for all such expenses
upon the presentation by Executive, in a timely manner, of an itemized account of such expenditures, including receipts or other adequate documentation, or Executive may pay such expenses with a Company credit card, if a Company credit card is
issued to Executive, and Executive shall appropriately document the business purpose of such expenditures. Executive’s expenses must be submitted to and approved by the Audit Committee or another officer or employee designated by the Audit
Committee to review and approve such expenses. The parties agree that for purposes of this paragraph, the Executive’s air travel shall be coach class domestically and business class internationally. 
  
 H. Educational Expenses. Executive shall be entitled to
receive reimbursement for educational expenses consistent with the Company’s policy on educational reimbursement. 
  
 VIII. Proprietary Interests of Company. 
  
 Executive and the Company recognize that the Company is in a highly competitive business in a highly technical industry. The parties acknowledge that the
success or failure of the Company depends largely on the development and use of certain proprietary and confidential information and trade secrets, including without limitation, information concerning any of the Company’s patented components,
research and development projects and in patent process components, and personal relationships with present and potential customers, suppliers, contractors, and governmental agencies as well as technology, procedures, systems, and techniques
relating to the products developed or distributed by the Company (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Confidential Information”). Confidential Information is a substantial asset of the Company. Confidential Information will be
disclosed to Executive in the normal course of operation. Executive acknowledges that Confidential Information is extremely valuable to the Company and must be protected from unauthorized use by the Company’s competitors or other persons.
Therefore, Executive agrees not to disclose or use, whether for the benefit of Executive or any other person or entity, at any time during or after his employment, any Confidential Information to any person or entity other than the Company or
persons authorized by the Company to receive such Confidential Information. As an express condition of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive agrees to execute and abide by confidentiality agreements as requested by the
Company, including but not limited to the Company’s form of Employment, Confidentiality and Invention Assignment Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference. 
  
 Upon termination of his employment with the Company, all documents, records,
notebooks, and similar repositories of or containing Confidential Information, including copies thereof, then in Executive’s possession, whether prepared by Executive or others, will be left with the Company, and no copies thereof will be
retained by Executive. 
  
 It is agreed that any breach of this
Section VIII will cause immediate irreparable harm to the Company and monetary damages would be difficult if not impossible to ascertain. Therefore, the parties agree that, upon any breach of any covenant in this Section VIII, that the Company may
obtain from the district court for the City of Broomfield, Broomfield County, Colorado, or any other court of competent jurisdiction, an appropriate restraining order, preliminary injunction or other form of equitable relief with respect thereto.
Nothing contained herein shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other available remedies for such breach, including the recovery of damages, costs, and attorney fees. 

 IX. Noncompete. Executive covenants and agrees with the Company that, during
the Employment Period and during the period of time following termination equal to the lesser of one (1) year) or any period of time during which Executive is being paid any severance or other benefits following termination of employment hereunder,
he will not, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, control, provide services to, be employed by, participate in, or be connected in any manner with the ownership, management, operation, or control of any business which develops,
manufactures, distributes or sells the same type of products as the Company, or products which are the functional equivalent of the Company’s products or currently planned products, within and to the same market as the Company’s market at
the time of Executive’s proposed activity or, after the termination of this Agreement, at or prior to the time of such termination. Executive certifies that his employment with the Company will not breach a previous employment agreement.
Executive agrees not to engage in the unauthorized use of the proprietary assets of others during the term of his employment by the Company. Executive agrees not to enter into any other employment agreement, oral or written, which will run
concurrently, in whole or in part, with Executive’s employment by the Company without the prior written approval of the Chairman of the Board. It is agreed that any breach of this section of the Agreement will cause immediate irreparable harm
to the Company and that monetary damages for such breach would be difficult if not impossible to ascertain. Therefore, the parties agree that upon any breach of the covenants of this section the Company may obtain from the district court for the
City of Broomfield, Broomfield County, Colorado, or any other court of competent jurisdiction, an appropriate restraining order, preliminary injunction or other form of equitable relief with respect thereto. Nothing contained herein shall be
construed as prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other available remedies for such breach, including the recovery of damages, costs, and attorney fees. 
  
 The foregoing agreement not to compete shall not be held invalid because of the scope of the territory or the actions restricted thereby, or the period of
time within which such agreement is operative; but any judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction may define the maximum territory and actions subject to, and restricted by, this paragraph and the period of time during which such agreement is
enforceable. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a
Change of Control, as hereinafter defined, not recommended by a majority of the Board of Directors of the Company as constituted prior to the date of such Change of Control, this non-compete agreement shall terminate upon the date of such Change of
Control. 
  
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, in the event that Executive is found to have violated the non-compete provisions of this Section IX by a court of competent jurisdiction or by the arbitrator provided for in Section XVI below, all severance amounts due and owing under
this Agreement shall be terminated upon the effective date of the breach and Executive shall reimburse the Company for any portion of the severance amounts previously paid to Executive for periods following the effective date of such breach.

  
 X. Termination of Employment. 
  
 A. Termination by Mutual Agreement. The Company and Executive
may agree to terminate this Agreement on terms and conditions mutually acceptable to them as of the date of termination. 
  
 B. Early Termination. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment for any reason prior to the end of the Employment Period by
giving the Executive 30 days’ advance notice in writing. The Executive may terminate his employment for any reason prior to the end of the Employment Period by giving the Company 30 days’ advance written notice; provided that, in
the case of a termination due to a Change in Duties, Compensation or Benefits, Executive’s notice shall state the reasons for which such assertion is made. Executive shall continue to render his services to the Company, if and to the extent
required by the Company, up to the effective date of such termination as referenced in the written notice of termination submitted to Executive by the Company or vice versa; provided, however, that the Company may, in its sole discretion,
elect to have Executive provide different services during such notice period than those provided prior to such notice. 
  
 C. Death. The Executive’s employment shall terminate immediately in the event of his death. In the event of Executive’s death
during the Employment Period, the Company shall pay to Executive’s estate any unpaid wages or other amounts owing at the time of death and shall pay, in addition to and not as a substitute for the proceeds from any life insurance policies on
Executive’s life paid for by the Company, an amount equal to the Severance Amount (as defined herein) which would have been payable to Executive if there had been a Involuntary Termination on the date of Executive’s death. In
addition, in the event of Executive’s death during the Employment Period, 50% of the shares subject to all then unvested stock options and stock appreciation rights that have previously been granted to Executive will vest and remain exercisable
after such termination in accordance with the terms of the stock plan under which such options were granted. The Executive’s rights under the benefit plans of the Company shall be determined under the provisions of those plans. 
  
 D. Disability. If Executive becomes Disabled during the term of
employment, the Company may, at its option, by 30 days’ advance written notice to Executive or Executive’s personal representative, terminate his employment under this Agreement. In the event that the Executive resumes the performance of
substantially all of his duties hereunder before the termination of his employment under this paragraph D becomes effective, the notice of termination shall automatically be deemed to have been revoked. No compensation or benefits will be paid or
provided to the Executive under this Agreement on account of termination in the event of Disability, or for periods following the date when such a termination of employment is effective. The Executive’s rights under the benefit plans of the
Company shall be determined under the provisions of those plans. 

 E. Involuntary Termination. In the event a termination constitutes an Involuntary
Termination as defined herein, Executive shall be entitled to, in lieu of any severance benefits to which the Executive may otherwise be entitled under any Company severance plan or program, (i) payment of the unpaid amount of the then applicable
annual base salary up to the effective date of such Involuntary Termination, (ii) payment of Executive’s pro rata share of any incentive bonus program earned up to the effective date of such Involuntary Termination based on the number of full
calendar months worked in any calendar year for which a bonus is to be paid; and (iii) payment of Executive’s then current base salary, payable on the Company’s regular payroll dates (provided the Company, at its option, may elect to pay
such amounts earlier in the form of one or more lump sum payments), for a period of time equal to the Severance Period (such payment under this clause (iii) to be referred to herein as the “Severance Amount”). In addition, in
the event of an Involuntary Termination, 50% of the shares subject to all then unvested stock options and stock appreciation rights that have previously been granted to Executive will vest and remain exercisable after such termination in accordance
with the terms of the stock plan under which such options were granted. Subject to the Company’s obligations under paragraph H of this Section X, the Executive’s rights under the benefit plans of the Company shall be determined under the
provisions of those plans. In addition, in the event that any Involuntary Termination occurs within twenty-four (24) months of Executive’s move to the Denver, Colorado area in connection with his employment hereunder, the Company shall pay to
Executive, within thirty (30) days of such termination, an amount equal to $22,500 as a non-accountable reimbursement for the movement of Executive’s household goods and family back to California. 
  
 F. Voluntary Termination and Termination for Cause. In the
event a termination constitutes a Voluntary Termination as defined herein, then the Executive shall be entitled to receive severance and any other benefits only as may then be established under the Company’s existing severance and benefit plans
and policies at the time of such termination. No compensation or benefits will be paid or provided to the Executive under this Agreement on account of a termination for Cause. The Executive’s rights under the benefit plans of the Company shall
be determined under the provisions of those plans.

 1. “Cause” shall mean (i) following delivery to Executive of a written demand for performance from Company which describes the basis for

employment. The Company may, at its election, procure such coverages apart from, and outside of the terms of, the plans applicable to other employees. The Company’s obligation to provide such coverages will be limited by the requirement that
Executive and Executive’s dependents comply with all of the conditions of the medical or dental plans applicable to employees generally and the Company is under no obligation to obtain special coverages for Executive which would not be covered
by the plans applicable to employees generally. In consideration for these benefits, Executive or his estate must make contributions equal to those required from time to time from other employees for equivalent coverages under the medical or dental
plans. If and to the extent that Executive or any of his dependents is eligible to participate in a medical, dental or other health insurance plan of another employer after the termination of his employment by the Company, then the benefit provided
by this paragraph shall be eliminated or commensurately diminished. 
  
 XI. Directors and Officers Insurance. The Company shall maintain and keep in force directors and officers liability insurance coverage on all directors and officers in such an amount as the Company deems reasonable and
necessary under the circumstances but in no event less than $10.0 million of aggregate coverage. 
  
 XII. Post-Termination Consulting. In the event of Executive’s Involuntary or Voluntary Termination, if requested by the Company,
Executive agrees to provide services to the Company as a consultant for a period of thirty (30) days following the effective date of such termination (the “Consulting Period”), in exchange for cash compensation at the rate of $100
per hour. Executive shall have the right to decline to provide any consulting services requested by the Company after an Involuntary Termination or Voluntary Termination but such refusal during the period when severance payments are being made by
the Company will result in the forfeiture of Executive’s right to the Severance Amount hereunder. If Executive does elect to provide consulting services following the completion of the severance period, Executive shall be obligated to provide
no more than ten (10) hours of consulting services per week during the Consulting Period, and the Company shall make reasonable accommodations for Executive with respect to the place and time of the provision of such services so as not to interfere
with Executive’s future employment or employment opportunities or otherwise. 
  
 XIII. Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and delivered in person or sent by United States registered or certified mail, postage
prepaid, addressed, in the case of Executive, to Executive’s residence as indicated in Executive’s personnel file in the Company’s records, or in the case of the Company, to its principal office addressed to the attention of Director
of Human Resources. Such notices or other communications shall be effective upon delivery or, if earlier, three days after they have been mailed as provided above. 
  
 XIV. Waiver. Failure or delay on the part of either party hereto to enforce any right, power, or
privilege hereunder shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver thereof. The waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement. No waiver shall be valid unless in writing
and executed by the party to be charged therewith. 
  
 XV.
Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement will be reformed, construed and
enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. 
  
 XVI. Arbitration. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively
by arbitration in Broomfield County, Colorado, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect by an arbitrator selected by both parties within 10 days after either party has notified the other in writing that it
desires a dispute between them to be settled by arbitration. In the event the parties cannot agree on such arbitrator within such 10-day period, each party shall select an arbitrator and inform the other party in writing of such arbitrator’s
name and address within 5 days after the end of such 10-day period and the two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator within 15 days thereafter; provided, however, that in the event of a failure by either party to select an
arbitrator and notify the other party of such selection within the time period provided above, the arbitrator selected by the other party shall be the sole arbitrator of the dispute. Each party shall pay its own expenses associated with such
arbitration, including the expense of any arbitrator selected by such party and the Company will pay the expenses of the jointly selected arbitrator. The decision of the arbitrator or a majority of the panel of arbitrators shall be binding upon the
parties and judgment in accordance with that decision may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereover. Punitive damages shall not be awarded. 
  
 XVII. Assignment. Executive acknowledges that the services to be rendered under this Agreement are unique and personal.
Executive may not, without the written consent of the Company, assign or transfer, whether by pledge, creation of a security interest or otherwise, this Agreement or any right or obligation under this Agreement to any other person or entity except
for a transfer by will or by the laws of descent or distribution of Executive’s right to receive payments or benefits under this Agreement. In the event of any attempted assignment or transfer contrary to this paragraph, the Company shall have
no liability to pay any amount so attempted to be assigned or transferred. 
  
 XVIII. Successors. This Agreement and all rights under this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective
personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees, legatees, successors and, subject to Section XVII above, assigns (including, without limitation, any company into or with which the Company may merge or
consolidate). The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to the 

 
Company as a result of a Change of Control to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company
would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. The failure of the Company to acquire the foregoing assumption of this Agreement without Executive’s written consent shall result in a Change of Duties, Compensation or
Benefits as set forth in Section X.G.2.g above. 
  
 XIX.
Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the exhibit hereto represent the entire agreement and understanding between the parties as to the subject matter hereof and shall, as of the effective date hereof, supersede all prior or
contemporaneous agreements between the parties, whether written or oral. No waiver, alteration, or modification of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding unless in writing and signed by duly authorized representatives of the
parties hereto. 
  
 XX. Governing Law and
Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed, and enforced under the internal laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to its choice of laws principles. The courts of the State of Colorado shall have sole jurisdiction
and venue over all controversies which may arise with respect to this Agreement. 
  
 XXI. Time. In comparing any period of time prescribed or allowed by this Agreement, the day of the act, event or default from which the designated period of time begins to run shall not be
included. Time accounting shall begin upon midnight of the following calendar day. All periods of time shall be assumed to be specified in calendar days unless otherwise noted. In the case of fractional days of time, the appropriate equivalent hours
can be calculated and accounted for against midnight of the calendar day in which the period of time started. 
  
 XXII. Headings. The headings of the paragraphs contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not in
any way affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. 
  
 XXIII. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts which, taken together, shall constitute a single binding agreement between the parties. Photocopies or telecopies of
the parties’ original signatures hereto may be relied upon as originals for all purposes. 
  
 XXIV. Attorneys Fees. All reasonable fees and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, shall be awarded to the prevailing party in the event of any litigation or
arbitration involving the enforcement or interpretation of this Agreement. 
  
 XXV. Right to Advice of Counsel. The Executive acknowledges that he has consulted with counsel and is fully aware of his rights and obligations under this Agreement. 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the day and year indicated above.
