Departure of Directors\nor Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers**.\n\n \n\n*Fiscal Year 2027 Performance-Based\nRestricted Stock Awards and Performance Criteria*\n\n \n\nOn June 4, 2026,\nthe Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Qorvo, Inc. (the “Company”) approved\nawards of performance-based restricted stock units (“PBRSUs”) for fiscal year 2027 in accordance with the Qorvo, Inc. 2022\nStock Incentive Plan (the “2022 Plan”) to each of the Company’s named executive officers. Each PBRSU, in addition to\nbeing subject to customary terms and conditions as set forth in the 2022 Plan and PBRSU award agreement, is subject to specified performance\nand service conditions and represents a performance-based award to receive an amount of the Company’s common stock at a future\ndate. The fair market value for each share of the Company’s common stock underlying the PBRSUs was established by the Committee\nin accordance with the 2022 Plan at $103.97 per share, which was the closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported on\nthe Nasdaq Global Select Market on June 4, 2026.\n\n \n\nThe Committee approved\nthe grant of PBRSUs that will be earned based upon the Company’s achievement of certain key Company financial metrics that the\nCommittee believes have a strong potential to impact longer-term stockholder value creation (the “FY2027 PBRSUs”). The determination\nof these financial metrics was made by the Committee in response to shareholder feedback received following the results of the advisory\nsay-on-pay proposal vote held at the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, including the removal of objectives-based performance\nmetrics which had been used in prior years. Under the FY2027 PBRSU program approved by the Committee, 50% of the target grant date value\nof the FY2027 PBRSUs will be earned based upon the Company’s achievement of certain non-GAAP operating income objectives over three,\none-year performance periods consisting of fiscal years 2027, 2028 and 2029, 25% of the target grant date value of the FY2027 PBRSUs\nwill be earned based upon the Company’s achievement of certain gross margin objectives over three, one-year performance periods\nconsisting of fiscal years 2027, 2028 and 2029, and 25% of the target grant date value of the FY2027 PBRSUs will be earned based upon\nthe Company’s achievement of certain revenue objectives over a single, one-year performance period consisting of fiscal year 2029.\nEach officer may earn up to 200% of the target number of FY2027 PBRSUs for each financial metric if the performance objectives are met\nin full.\n\n \n\nThe shares subject\nto the FY2027 PBRSUs will not be earned unless and until the Committee determines and certifies the extent, if any, to which the performance\nobjectives have been satisfied following completion of each applicable performance period and, except as otherwise provided in the relevant\nPBRSU award agreement, the officer satisfies the applicable service requirement set forth in such agreement. The FY2027 PBRSUs earned\nby the officer with respect to a fiscal year, if any, will vest on the date of the Committee’s certification.\n\n \n\nThe target number\nof shares of the Company’s common stock subject to the FY2027 PBRSUs for each performance objective is as follows:\n\n \n\nName\n\nNon-GAAP Operating\nIncome\n\n(assuming target\nperformance)\n\nNon-GAAP Gross\nMargin\n\n(assuming target\nperformance) \n\nRevenue\n\n(assuming target\nperformance)\n\nRobert A.

The Retention Award is comprised of a combination of 9,618\nservice-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”), which vest in two equal annual installments on each of the first two anniversaries\nof the grant date, and 9,618 PBRSUs, which will be earned based upon the Company’s achievement of organic HPA revenue growth objectives\nover two, one-year performance periods consisting of fiscal years 2027 and 2028. Mr. Chelsey may earn up to 100% of the PBRSUs if the\nperformance objectives are met in full. Vesting of the Retention Award is subject to Mr. Chesley’s continued employment through\nthe applicable vesting or performance achievement date, and will not be eligible for any continued vesting following a termination of\nMr. Chesley’s employment for any reason, except that the RSUs (but not the PBRSUs) will be eligible to vest in full in the event\nof a qualifying termination of Mr. Chesley’s employment in connection with a change in control as provided under his Amended and\nRestated Change in Control Agreement with the Company. In addition, upon the occurrence of a change in control, the Retention Award will\nbe assumed by and converted into an award of the acquiror or successor (or its parent) in such change in control and will remain subject\nto the vesting conditions described above, including with respect to the achievement of the performance objectives. For clarity, upon\nthe closing of the Company’s previously announced merger with Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (“Skyworks”), notwithstanding\nanything to the contrary in the Agreement and Plan of Merger entered into between the Company and Skyworks, the performance objectives\napplicable to the PBRSUs will not be measured at the closing (as contemplated thereby) and will instead remain in place and eligible\nto be earned in accordance with its terms following the closing date. The fair market value for each share of the Company’s common\nstock underlying the Retention Award was established by the Committee in accordance with the 2022 Plan at $103.97 per share, which was\nthe closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on June 4, 2026.\n\n \n\nThe foregoing description\nof the Retention Award does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the award\nagreement governing the Retention Award, a copy of which will be attached as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form\n10-Q filed for the quarter ending June 27, 2026.\n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n**SIGNATURE**\n\n \n\nPursuant to the\nrequirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned\nhereunto duly authorized.\n\n \n\n**Qorvo, Inc.**\n\n \n \n\n \n \n\nBy:\n\n/s/\nGrant A.
