The disclosure provided in Item 5.02(e) below is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

(e)

On February 23, 2015, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of QuickLogic Corporation (the “Company”) established the target bonuses and performance objectives under the Company’s 2005 Executive Bonus Plan (the “Plan”) for 2015. The Plan, as amended, was filed in a current report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 28, 2008. Bonus compensation for 2015 is dependent upon the Company’s achievement of (a) annual new product revenue growth, (b) annual operating margin, and (c) annual roadmap milestone objectives as set forth in the Company’s Annual Operating Plan (“AOP”). Bonuses are accrued quarterly and paid annually during the first quarter of the following fiscal year. Eighty percent of the annual new product revenue goal must be achieved before any bonus can be earned. Annual new product revenue in excess of 100% to 125% of the objective earns a bonus multiplier of 1.25 and annual new product revenue in excess of 125% of the objective earns a bonus multiplier of 1.5. An additional payment of 10% of the operating margin bonus is earned in the event the operating margin achieved in Q4 2015 is equal to or greater than the objective and an additional payment of 10% of the operating margin bonus is earned in the event the operating margin achieved in 2015 is equal to or greater than the objective. The Chief Executive Officer’s target bonus for 2015 is currently 50% of his annual base salary and each of the other participants has a target bonus for 2015 currently equal to 35% to 50% of his/her annual base salary.
