The Securities will be convertible by the holders thereof into cash, fully paid, non-assessable shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, at the option of the Company, on the terms, and subject to the conditions, set forth in the Indenture (as defined below). The Securities are to be

Pursuant to (i) a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 11, 2017 (the “Conexant Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company, Lakestar Semi, Inc., a Delaware corporation, CNXT Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Conexant Systems, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Conexant”), and subject to the conditions contained therein, the Company will purchase all of the outstanding limited liability company interests of Conexant (the “Conexant Acquisition”) and (ii) an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 12, 2017 (the “Marvell Purchase Agreement” and, together with the Conexant Purchase Agreement, the “Acquisition Agreements”), by and between the Company and Marvell International Ltd., a Bermuda exempted company (“Marvell”), and subject to the conditions contained therein, the Company will purchase the assets of the Multimedia Solutions Business of Marvell Semiconductor (the “Marvell Business Acquisition” and, together with the Conexant Acquisition, the “Acquisitions”).

The Company understands that the Initial Purchasers propose to make an offering of the Securities on the terms and in the manner set forth herein and agrees that the Initial Purchasers may resell, subject to the conditions set forth herein, all or a portion of the Securities to purchasers (“Subsequent Purchasers”) at any time after this Agreement has been executed and delivered. The Securities are to be offered and sold through the Initial Purchasers without being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance upon exemptions therefrom. Pursuant to the terms of the Securities and the Indenture, investors that acquire Securities may only resell or otherwise transfer such Securities if such Securities are hereafter registered under the Securities Act or if an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act is available (including the exemption afforded by Rule 144A (“Rule 144A”) of the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Act (the “Securities Act Regulations”) by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)).

The Company has prepared and delivered to each Initial Purchaser copies of a preliminary offering memorandum dated June 20, 2017 prior to the Applicable Time (as defined below) (the “Preliminary Offering Memorandum”) and has prepared and will deliver to each Initial Purchaser, on the date hereof or the next succeeding day, copies of a final offering memorandum dated June 20, 2017 (the “Final Offering Memorandum”), each for use by such Initial Purchaser in connection with its solicitation of purchases of, or offering of, the Securities. “Offering Memorandum” means, with respect to any date or time referred to in this Agreement, the most recent offering memorandum (whether the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Final Offering Memorandum, including any amendment or supplement to either such document), including exhibits thereto and any documents incorporated therein by reference, which has been prepared and delivered by the Company to the Initial Purchasers, in the case of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum prior to the Applicable Time, in connection with their solicitation of purchases of, or offering of, the Securities. The Company will prepare a final term sheet reflecting the final terms of the Securities, in the form set forth in Schedule B hereto (the “Final Term Sheet”), and will deliver such Final Term Sheet to the Initial Purchasers prior to the Applicable Time in connection with their solicitation of purchases of, or offering of, the Securities. The Company agrees that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Representative, it will not make any offer relating to the Securities by any written materials other than the Offering Memorandum and the Issuer Written Information. “Issuer Written Information” means (i) any writing intended for general distribution to investors as evidenced by its being specified in Schedule C hereto, including the Final Term Sheet, and (ii) any “road show” that is a “written communication” within the meaning of the Securities Act. “General Disclosure Package” means the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and any Issuer Written Information specified on Schedule C hereto and issued at or prior to 12:09 A.M., New York City time, on June 21, 2017 or such other time as agreed by the Company and the Representative (such date and time, the “Applicable Time”).

SECTION 1. Representations and Warranties.

(a) Representations and Warranties by the Company. The Company represents and warrants to each Initial Purchaser as of the date hereof, the Applicable Time, the Closing Time (as defined below) and any Date of Delivery (as defined below), and agrees with each Initial Purchaser, as follows:

(i) General Disclosure Package; Rule 144A Eligibility. The Company hereby confirms that it has authorized the use of the General Disclosure Package, including the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Final Term Sheet, and the Final Offering Memorandum in connection with the offer and sale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers.

(ii) No Registration Required; No General Solicitation. Subject to compliance by the Initial Purchasers with the representations and warranties of the Initial Purchasers and the procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof, it is not necessary in connection with the offer, sale and delivery of the Securities to the Initial Purchasers and to each Subsequent Purchaser in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the General Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum to register the Securities under the Securities Act or to qualify the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. None of the Company, its Affiliates (as defined herein) or any person acting on its or any of their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers, as to whom the Company makes no representation) has engaged, in connection with the offering of the Securities, in any form of general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) under the Securities Act Regulations.

(iii) Accurate Disclosure. As of the Applicable Time, neither (A) the General Disclosure Package nor (B) any Issuer Written Information, when considered together with the General Disclosure Package, included, includes or will include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Final Offering Memorandum, as of its date, at the Closing Time or at any Date of Delivery, did not, does not and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the General Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum, when such documents incorporated by reference were filed with the Commission, when read together with the other information in the General Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum, as the case may be, did not, does not and will not contain an untrue

statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

The representations and warranties in this subsection shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the General Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser through the Representative expressly for use therein. For purposes of this Agreement, the only information so furnished shall be the information in the first paragraph under the heading “Plan of Distribution – Commissions and Discounts,” the third sentence of the first paragraph under the heading “Plan of Distribution – Notes are Not Being Registered,” the third and fourth sentences under the heading “Plan of Distribution – New Issue of Notes” and the information in the first paragraph under the heading “Plan of Distribution–Price Stabilization, Short Positions” in the Offering Memorandum (collectively, the “Initial Purchaser Information”).

(iv) Incorporation of Documents by Reference. The documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Offering Memorandum, at the time they were or hereafter are filed with the Commission, complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Exchange Act (the “Exchange Act Regulations”).

(v) Independent Accountants.

(vi) Financial Statements; Non-GAAP Financial Measures. The financial statements of the Company included or incorporated by reference in the General Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum, together with the related schedules and notes, present fairly the financial position of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries at the dates indicated and the statement of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries for the periods specified; said financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved, except as may be expressly stated in the notes thereto. The supporting schedules, if any, present fairly in accordance with GAAP the information required to be stated therein. The selected financial data and the summary financial information included in the Offering Memorandum present fairly the information shown therein and have been compiled on a basis consistent with that of the audited financial statements included therein. All disclosures contained in the General Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum, or incorporated by reference therein, regarding “non-GAAP financial measures” (as such term is defined by the rules and regulations of the Commission) relating to the financial statements of the Company comply with Regulation G of the Exchange Act and Item 10 of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act, to the extent applicable.

The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Company in respect of any income and corporation tax liability for any years not finally determined are adequate to meet any assessments or re-assessments for additional income tax for any years not finally determined, except to the extent of any inadequacy that would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(xxviii) Insurance.

SECTION 2. Sale and Delivery to Initial Purchasers; Closing.

(a) Initial Securities. On the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company agrees to sell to each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, and each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, agrees to purchase from the Company, at the price set forth in Schedule A, the aggregate principal amount of Initial Securities set forth in Schedule A, plus any additional principal amount of Initial Securities which such Initial Purchaser may become obligated to purchase pursuant to the provisions of Section 11 hereof, subject to such adjustments as the Representative in its discretion shall make to ensure that any sales or purchases are in authorized denominations.

(b) Option Securities. In addition, on the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company hereby grants an option to the Initial Purchasers, severally and not jointly, to purchase the Option Securities, at the price set forth in Schedule A. The option hereby granted may be exercised for 30 days after the date hereof and may be exercised in whole or in part from time to time upon written notice by the Representative to the Company setting forth the amount of Option Securities as to which the several Initial Purchasers are then exercising the option and the time and date of payment and delivery for such Option Securities. Any such time and date of delivery (a “Date of Delivery”) shall be determined by the Representative, but shall not be less than two full business days after the exercise of such option (unless such Date of Delivery shall be the initial Closing Time (as defined herein)) nor later than seven full business days after the exercise of said option, nor in any event prior to the Closing Time. If the option is exercised as to all or any portion of the Option Securities, each of the Initial Purchasers, acting severally and not jointly, will purchase that proportion of the total principal amount of Option Securities then being purchased which the number of Initial Securities set forth in Schedule A opposite the name of such Initial Purchaser bears to the total principal amount of Initial Securities, subject in each case to such adjustments as the Representative in its discretion shall make to ensure that any sales or purchases are in authorized denominations.

(c) Payment. Payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of certificates or security entitlements for, the Initial Securities shall be made at the offices of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, 450 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York 10017, or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Representative and the Company, at 9:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third (fourth, if the pricing occurs after 4:30 P.M. (New York City time) on any given day) business day after the date hereof (unless

postponed in accordance with the provisions of Section 11), or such other time not later than ten business days after such date as shall be agreed upon by the Representative and the Company (such time and date of payment and delivery being herein called “Closing Time”).

In addition, in the event that any or all of the Option Securities are purchased by the Initial Purchasers, payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of certificates or security entitlements for, such Option Securities shall be made at the above-mentioned offices, or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Representative and the Company, on each Date of Delivery as specified in the notice from the Representative to the Company.

Payment shall be made to the Company by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated by the Company, against delivery to the Representative for the respective accounts of the Initial Purchasers of certificates or security entitlements for the Securities to be purchased by them. It is understood that each Initial Purchaser has authorized the Representative, for its account, to accept delivery of, receipt for, and make payment of the purchase price for, the Initial Securities and the Option Securities, if any, which it has agreed to purchase. Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, individually and not as Representative of the Initial Purchasers, may (but shall not be obligated to) make payment of the purchase price for the Initial Securities or the Option Securities, if any, to be purchased by any Initial Purchaser whose funds have not been received by the Closing Time or the relevant Date of Delivery, as the case may be, but such payment shall not relieve such Initial Purchaser from its obligations hereunder.

The Company will furnish to each Initial Purchaser, without charge, such number of copies of the Final Offering Memorandum thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein as such Initial Purchaser may reasonably request.

(b) Notice and Effect of Material Events.

the Exchange Act Regulations within 48 hours prior to the Applicable Time; the Company will give the Representative notice of its intention to make any such filing from the Applicable Time to the Closing Time and will furnish the Representative with copies of any such documents a reasonable amount of time prior to such proposed filing, as the case may be, and will not file or use any such document to which the Representative or counsel for the Initial Purchasers shall reasonably object.

(b) Covenants of the Company. The Company covenants with each Initial Purchaser as follows:

(i) Integration. The Company agrees that it will not and will cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, solicit any offer to buy, sell or make any offer or sale of, or otherwise negotiate in respect of, securities of the Company of any class if, as a result of the doctrine of “integration” referred to in Rule 502 under the Securities Act Regulations, such offer or sale would render invalid (for the purpose of (i) the sale of the offered Securities by the Company to the Initial Purchasers, (ii) the resale of the offered Securities by the Initial Purchasers to Subsequent Purchasers or (iii) the resale of the offered Securities by such Subsequent Purchasers to others) the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Section 4(a)(2) thereof or by Rule 144A thereunder or otherwise.

(ii) Rule 144A Information. The Company agrees that, in order to render the offered Securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A, while any of the offered Securities remain outstanding, it will make available, upon request, to any holder of offered Securities or prospective purchasers of Securities the information specified in Rule 144A(d)(4), unless the Company furnishes information to the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

(iii) Restriction on Resales. Until the expiration of one year after the last date of original issuance of the offered Securities (or such shorter period as may be provided for in Rule 144 under the Securities Act), the Company will not, and will cause its Affiliates not to, resell any offered Securities which are “restricted securities” (as such term is defined under Rule 144(a)(3)), whether as beneficial owner or otherwise (except as agent acting as a securities broker on behalf of and for the account of customers in the ordinary course of business in unsolicited broker’s transactions).

(c) Representations, Warranties and Agreements of the Initial Purchasers. Each Initial Purchaser severally and not jointly represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Company that it is a Qualified Institutional Buyer and an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act Regulations. Each Initial Purchaser understands that the offered Securities have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold within the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Each Initial Purchaser severally represents and agrees that it has not offered or sold, and will not offer or sell, any offered Securities constituting part of its allotment within the United States except in accordance with Rule 144A or another applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Accordingly, neither it nor any person acting on its behalf has made or will make offers or sales of the Securities in the United States by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D) in the United States. Each Initial Purchaser will take reasonable steps to inform, and cause each of its affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule 501(b) under the Securities Act Regulations (each, an “Affiliate”)) to take reasonable steps to inform, persons acquiring Securities from such Initial Purchaser or Affiliate, as the case may be, in the United States that the Securities (A) have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act, (B) are being sold to them without registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Rule 144A or in accordance with another exemption from registration under the Securities Act, as the case may be, and (C) may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred except (1) to the Company or any subsidiary thereof, (2) under a registration statement that has become effective under the Securities Act (it being understood that the Company has no obligation to file any such registration statement with respect to the Securities), (3) in accordance with Rule 144A to a person whom the seller reasonably believes is a Qualified Institutional Buyer that is purchasing such Securities for its own account or for the account of a Qualified Institutional Buyer to whom notice is given that the offer, sale or transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A or (4) pursuant to another available exemption from registration under the Securities Act.

SECTION 7. Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification of Initial Purchasers. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its Affiliates, its directors and officers, its selling agents and each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act as follows:

(i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in any Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Final Offering Memorandum, the information contained in the Final Term Sheet or any Issuer Written Information (or any amendment or supplement to the foregoing) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any

investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that (subject to Section 8(d) below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company;

(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Representative), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above;

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in any Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Final Offering Memorandum or the information contained in the Final Term Sheet (or any amendment or supplement to the foregoing) in reliance upon and in conformity with the Initial Purchaser Information.

(b) Indemnification of Company, Directors and Officers. Each Initial Purchaser severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, its officers, Affiliates and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in subsection (a) of this Section, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in any Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Final Offering Memorandum or the information contained in the Final Term Sheet (or any amendment or supplement to the foregoing) in reliance upon and in conformity with the Initial Purchaser Information.

(c) Actions against Parties; Notification. Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. In the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 7(a) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Representative, and, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 7(b) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Company. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action; provided, however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 7 or Section 8 hereof (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) Settlement without Consent if Failure to Reimburse. If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 7(a)(ii) effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

SECTION 8. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 7 hereof is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and of the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, on the one hand, and the total underwriting discount received by the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, bear to the aggregate initial offering price of the Securities as set forth on the cover of the Final Offering Memorandum.

The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Initial Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 8. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 8 shall be deemed to include any reasonable and documented legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, no Initial Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities purchased by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

For purposes of this Section 8, each person, if any, who controls an Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each Initial Purchaser’s Affiliates, officers, directors and selling agents shall have the same rights to contribution as such Initial Purchaser, and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company and each of the Company’s Affiliates, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. The Initial Purchasers’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8 are several in proportion to the aggregate principal amount of Initial Securities set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule A hereto and not joint.

SECTION 9. Representations, Warranties, Indemnities and Agreements to Survive. All representations, warranties, indemnities and agreements contained in this Agreement or in certificates of officers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries and the Initial Purchasers submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser or its Affiliates or selling agents, any person controlling any Initial Purchaser, its officers or directors or the Company, its Affiliates or any person controlling the Company and (ii) delivery of and payment for the Securities.

SECTION 10. Termination of Agreement.

(a) Termination. The Representative may terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Company, at any time at or prior to the Closing Time (i) if there has been, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the General Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum, any material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, or (ii) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States or the international financial markets, any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representative, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the completion of the offering or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Securities, or (iii) if trading in any securities of the Company has been suspended or materially limited by the Commission or the NASDAQ, or (iv) if trading generally on the NYSE MKT, the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ has been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices have been required, by any of said exchanges or by order of the Commission, FINRA or any other governmental authority, or (v) a material disruption has occurred in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States, or (vi) if a banking moratorium has been declared by either Federal or New York authorities.

(b) Liabilities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section, such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Section 4 hereof, and provided further that Sections 1, 7, 8, 9, 14, 15, 16 and 17 shall survive such termination and remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 11. Default by One or More of the Initial Purchasers. If one or more of the Initial Purchasers shall fail at the Closing Time or a Date of Delivery to purchase the Securities which it or they

are obligated to purchase under this Agreement (the “Defaulted Securities”), the Representative shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers, or any other initial purchasers, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Securities in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; if, however, the Representative shall not have completed such arrangements within such 24-hour period, then:

(i) if the number of Defaulted Securities does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased on such date, each of the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective underwriting obligations hereunder bear to the underwriting obligations of all non-defaulting Initial Purchasers, or

(ii) if the number of Defaulted Securities exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased on such date, this Agreement or, with respect to any Date of Delivery which occurs after the Closing Time, the obligation of the Initial Purchasers to purchase, and the Company to sell, the Option Securities to be purchased and sold on such Date of Delivery, shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser.

No action taken pursuant to this Section shall relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability in respect of its default.

In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement or, in the case of a Date of Delivery which is after the Closing Time, which does not result in a termination of the obligation of the Initial Purchasers to purchase and the Company to sell the relevant Option Securities, as the case may be, either the (i) Representative or (ii) the Company shall have the right to postpone Closing Time or the relevant Date of Delivery, as the case may be, for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the General Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Memorandum or in any other documents or arrangements. As used herein, the term “Initial Purchaser” includes any person substituted for an Initial Purchaser under this Section 11.

SECTION 12. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed or transmitted by any standard form of telecommunication. Notices to the Initial Purchasers shall be directed to Wells Fargo Securities, LLC at 375 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10152, attention of Equity Syndicate Department (facsimile: (212)-214-5918); and notices to the Company shall be directed to it at 1251 McKay Drive, San Jose, California 95131, attention of John McFarland (facsimile: 408-904-2742).

SECTION 13. No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (a) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the initial offering price of the Securities and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the several Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, (b) in connection with the offering of the Securities and the process leading thereto, each Initial Purchaser is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the agent or fiduciary of the Company, any of its subsidiaries or their respective stockholders, creditors, employees or any other party, (c) no Initial Purchaser has assumed or will assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with respect to the offering of the Securities or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Initial Purchaser has advised or is currently advising the Company or any of its subsidiaries on other matters) and no Initial Purchaser has any obligation to the Company with respect to the offering of the Securities except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, (d) the Initial Purchasers and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company and (e) the Initial Purchasers have not provided any legal, accounting,

regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering of the Securities and the Company has consulted its own respective legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate.

SECTION 14. Parties. This Agreement shall each inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Initial Purchasers and the Company and their respective successors. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the Initial Purchasers and the Company and their respective successors and the controlling persons and officers and directors referred to in Sections 7 and 8 and their heirs and legal representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained. This Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof are intended to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Initial Purchasers and the Company and their respective successors, and said controlling persons and officers and directors and their heirs and legal representatives, and for the benefit of no other person, firm or corporation. No purchaser of Securities from any Initial Purchaser shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.

SECTION 15. Trial by Jury. The Company (on its behalf and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on behalf of its stockholders and affiliates) and each of the Initial Purchasers hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

SECTION 16. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF, THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS CHOICE OF LAW PROVISIONS.

SECTION 17. Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Immunity. Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (“Related Proceedings”) shall be instituted in (i) the federal courts of the United States of America located in the City and County of New York, Borough of Manhattan or (ii) the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York, Borough of Manhattan (collectively, the “Specified Courts”), and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction (except for proceedings instituted in regard to the enforcement of a judgment of any such court (a “Related Judgment”), as to which such jurisdiction is non-exclusive) of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. Service of any process, summons, notice or document by mail to such party’s address set forth above shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court. The parties irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any suit, action or other proceeding in the Specified Courts and irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that any such suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

SECTION 18. TIME. TIME SHALL BE OF THE ESSENCE OF THIS AGREEMENT. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SET FORTH HEREIN, SPECIFIED TIMES OF DAY REFER TO NEW YORK CITY TIME.

SECTION 19. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement.

SECTION 20. Effect of Headings. The Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

SECTION 21. Xtract Research LLC. The Company hereby agrees that the Initial Purchasers may provide copies of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Final Offering Memorandum relating to the offering of the Securities and any other agreements or documents relating thereto, including, without limitation, any trust indentures, to Xtract Research LLC (“Xtract”) following the completion of the offering in compliance with applicable law for inclusion in an online research service sponsored by Xtract, access to which is restricted to “qualified institutional buyers” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act.

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our agreement, please sign and return to the Company a counterpart hereof, whereupon this instrument, along with all counterparts, will become a binding agreement among the Initial Purchasers and the Company in accordance with its terms.


Very truly yours,

0.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2022

The information in this pricing term sheet (the “Pricing Term Sheet”) supplements Synaptics Incorporated’s preliminary offering memorandum, dated June 20, 2017 (the “Preliminary Offering Memorandum”), and supersedes the information in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum only to the extent inconsistent with the information in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum. In all other respects, the Pricing Term Sheet is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, including all other documents incorporated by reference therein. Terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings as set forth in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum. All references to dollar amounts are references to U.S. dollars. Synaptics Incorporated has increased the size of the offering to $500,000,000 (or $525,000,000 if the initial purchasers’ option to purchase additional notes is exercised in full). The final offering memorandum relating to the offering will reflect conforming changes relating to such increase in the size of the offering.

Issuer:

Synaptics Incorporated, a Delaware corporation.

Ticker / Exchange for Common Stock:

SYNA / The NASDAQ Global Select Market (“NASDAQ”).

Title of Securities:

0.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2022 (the “Notes”).

Aggregate Principal Amount Offered:

$500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes.

Initial Purchasers’ Option to Purchase Additional Notes:

$25,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes.

Trade Date:

June 21, 2017.

Expected Settlement Date:

June 26, 2017.

Issue Price:

The Notes will be issued at a price of 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued interest from June 26, 2017, if any.

Maturity:

The Notes will mature on June 15, 2022, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted.

Interest Rate:

0.50% per year.

Interest Payment Dates:

Interest will accrue from the Expected Settlement Date and will be payable semiannually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2017.

Optional Redemption:

The Issuer may not redeem the Notes prior to June 20, 2020. The Issuer may redeem for cash all or part of the Notes, at its option, on or after June 20, 2020 if the last reported sale price of the Issuer’s common stock, as determined by the Issuer, has been at least 130% of the

conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Issuer provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. No “sinking fund” is provided for the Notes, which means that the Issuer is not required to redeem or retire the Notes periodically.

NASDAQ Last Reported Sale Price on June 20, 2017:

$55.11 per share of the Issuer’s common stock.

Conversion Premium:

Approximately 32.5% above the NASDAQ Last Reported Sale Price on June 20, 2017.

Initial Conversion Price:

Approximately $73.02 per share of the Issuer’s common stock.

Initial Conversion Rate:

13.6947 shares of the Issuer’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes.

Use of Proceeds:

The Issuer estimates that its net proceeds from the Notes offering will be approximately $489.5 million, after deducting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Issuer. If the initial purchasers’ option to purchase additional Notes is exercised in full, the Issuer estimates that its net proceeds from the Notes offering will be approximately $514.0 million, after deducting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Issuer.

The Issuer intends to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the Notes offering to (i) pay off the approximately $123.8 million currently outstanding under, and terminate, its term loan facility and (ii) together with available cash and borrowings under its revolving credit facility, fund the cash portion of the Pending Acquisitions, which are expected to occur in the first quarter of its fiscal year 2018. Pending the allocation of the net proceeds of the Notes to finance the Pending Acquisitions, the net proceeds may be invested in overnight or other short-term financial instruments. See “Summary—Recent Developments” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum.

The Notes offering is not conditioned upon the completion of either of the Pending Acquisitions and there can be no assurance that one or both of the Pending Acquisitions will be completed on the terms described in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or at all. If one or both of the Pending Acquisitions do not close, the remaining balance of the net proceeds from the Notes offering will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, including to repay amounts outstanding under the Issuer’s revolving credit facility. See “Use of Proceeds” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum.

Repurchases of Shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock:

The Issuer expects to use approximately $94 million of the net proceeds from the Notes offering to repurchase shares of the Issuer’s common stock concurrently with the pricing of the Notes offering in privately negotiated transactions effected with or through Wells Fargo Securities, LLC or one of its affiliates. The Issuer repurchased approximately 1.7 million shares indirectly from purchasers of Notes in the offering at a purchase price per share equal to the NASDAQ Last Reported Sale Price on June 20, 2017, which was $55.11 per share. These repurchases could have increased, or prevented a decrease in, the market price of the Issuer’s common stock concurrently with the pricing of the Notes, and could have resulted in a higher effective conversion price for the Notes.

Increase in Conversion Rate Upon Conversion Upon a Make-Whole Fundamental Change or Notice of Redemption:

If the effective date of a “make-whole fundamental change” (as defined in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum) occurs prior to the maturity date of the Notes or the Issuer gives a notice of redemption with respect to any or all of the Notes and, in each case, a holder elects to convert its Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change or notice of redemption, as applicable, the following table sets forth the number of additional shares of the Issuer’s common stock by which the conversion rate will be increased per $1,000 principal amount of Notes for each stock price and effective date set forth below:


	Stock Price
Effective Date	$55.11		$60.00		$65.00		$70.00		$73.02		$75.00		$80.00		$90.00		$100.00		$120.00		$150.00		$200.00

The exact stock prices and effective dates may not be set forth in the table above, in which case:

•

If the stock price is between two stock prices in the table or the effective date is between two effective dates in the table, the number of additional shares by which the conversion rate will be increased will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of additional shares set forth for the higher and lower stock prices and the earlier and later effective dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year.

•

If the stock price is greater than $200.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the stock prices set forth in the column headings of the table above as described in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum), no additional shares will be added to the conversion rate.

•

If the stock price is less than $55.11 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the stock prices set forth in the column headings of the table above as described in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum), no additional shares will be added to the conversion rate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the conversion rate per $1,000 principal amount of Notes exceed 18.1455 shares of the Issuer’s common stock, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the conversion rate as set forth under “Description of Notes—Conversion Rights—Conversion Rate Adjustments” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum.
