In addition, the Company has the right at any time and from time to time to incur one or more additional revolving commitments and/or incremental term loans up to an unlimited amount, subject to certain customary conditions precedent and other requirements, including compliance with a specified leverage ratio. The Lenders are not obligated to provide any such additional commitments or loans. The proceeds of the Revolving Loans may be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes. As of the Effective Date, there are no outstanding loans under the Credit Agreement.\n\nThe maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility is the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date, subject to a springing maturity that is 91 days prior to the earliest scheduled maturity date of any Inside Date Convertible Debt (as defined in the Credit Agreement, including the Company’s 0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2031) if the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Inside Date Convertible Debt exceeds the greater of $270,000,000 and 75% of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) at such time, unless either (i) the Company’s liquidity (which includes amounts available under the Revolving Credit Facility and the consolidated unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries) at such time is greater than 125% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Inside Date Convertible Debt or (ii) the Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) does not exceed 2.50 to 1.00 for the then most recently completed four fiscal quarters.\n\nRevolving Loans may be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed, until their maturity date under the Credit Agreement, and may be prepaid by the Company without premium or penalty (subject to customary breakage costs). The Revolving Loans bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate equal to either (i) term SOFR, plus an applicable margin ranging\n\n \n\nfrom 1.75% to 2.50% per annum based on the Total Net Leverage Ratio, or (ii) a base rate equal to the highest of (w) 1.00%, (x) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (y) the prime rate and (z) term SOFR for an interest period of one month plus 1.00%, plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.75% to 1.50% per annum based on the Total Net Leverage Ratio. Undrawn commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility are subject to a commitment fee ranging from 0.25% to 0.40% per annum based on the Total Net Leverage Ratio on the average daily unused portion of such commitment that is available to the Company. The applicable margin for and certain other terms of any additional revolving commitments or incremental term loans will be determined prior to the incurrence of such commitments or loans.\n\nThe Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and affirmative and negative covenants. The negative covenants include restrictions on liens, investments, indebtedness, fundamental changes, restricted payments, transactions with affiliates, prepayments of subordinated debt and other matters, all subject to certain exceptions. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain (i) a maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio of (x) 4.50:1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending on September 30, 2026, (y) 4.00:1.00 for the fiscal quarters ending on December 31, 2026 and March 31, 2027, and (z) 3.50:1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending on June 30, 2027 and each fiscal quarter thereafter, and (ii) a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 3.00:1.00, in each case, tested at the end of each fiscal quarter. The Total Net Leverage Ratio covenant is subject to a 0.50:1.00 step-up for four fiscal quarters following any Material Acquisition (as defined in the Credit Agreement).\n\nThe obligations under the Credit Agreement and, at the Company’s election, any secured hedging obligations and cash management obligations owing to a Lender (or an affiliate of a Lender), are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company. In addition, such obligations will be required to be guaranteed by, and secured by substantially all of the assets of, any future material domestic subsidiaries of the Company.\n\nThe Credit Agreement includes customary events of default that include, among other things: non-payment of principal, interest or fees; inaccuracy of representations and warranties; violation of certain covenants; cross default to certain other indebtedness; bankruptcy and insolvency events; material judgments; change of control; certain material ERISA events; and invalidity of loan documents, subject to thresholds and cure periods as set forth in the Credit Agreement. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, the Lenders may terminate their commitments and accelerate any outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement and may exercise certain other rights and remedies provided for under the Credit Agreement, the other loan documents and applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, acceleration will be automatic in the case of bankruptcy and insolvency events of default involving the Company. Under certain circumstances, a default interest rate will apply to all obligations during the existence of an event of default under the Credit Agreement at a per annum rate equal to 2.00% above the otherwise applicable interest rate.\n\nA copy of the Credit Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement.\n\nPrivate Placement and Registration Rights Agreement\n\nIn addition, on the Closing Date, the Company and Renesas entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) in connection with the Acquisition, pursuant to which the Company agreed to file a registration statement (or a prospectus supplement to an effective shelf registration statement) (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as promptly as reasonably practicable following the written request of Renesas for purposes of registering the resale of the Shares, and to keep the Registration Statement effective until the date that all Shares covered by the Registration Statement (i) have been resold or (ii) may be resold without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144.

Resales of the Shares by Renesas are also subject to volume and other limitations set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement. Additionally, the Registration Rights Agreement provides that upon receipt of notice, the Company will appoint Hidetoshi Shibata, the current Chief Executive Officer of Renesas Electronics Corporation, to the Board of Directors of the Company as a Class I director.\n\n \n\nThe Shares were issued in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to the exemption for transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D of the Securities Act and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws. The Shares are being offered without any general solicitation by the Company or its representatives.
