- 4 -

the Company’s fiscal years 2023 and 2024 through the sale of Sanken products or third party business, as provided in that certain Amendment 1 to Wafer Foundry Agreement between Allegro MicroSystems, LLC and the Company, dated as of the date hereof (the “Wafer Supply Agreement” and such plan, in a form substantially similar to the plan attached hereto as Exhibit A, the “Plan 5K”). Additionally, within twelve (12) months following the date hereof, Allegro and Sanken will jointly review current and future business conditions to ensure that the intended capacity ramp set forth in Plan 5K remains valid and viable.

If the Company cannot obtain sufficient capital to fund Plan 5K from available cashflow, the first $[XXX] of additional funding will come from the Company’s existing credit facility with Mizuho Corporate Bank, Ltd. If available amounts under such facility are insufficient to meet the required total funding of Plan 5K, Sanken and Allegro will support the Company by funding an additional amount, up to an aggregate of $[XXX], which investment shall be on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Unit Percentages, with such aggregate amount being invested over time based on planned revenue of the Company.

Distributions of cash or other assets of the Company may be effected by the Members from time to time at the discretion of the Board, upon approval by the Board, but subject in all instances to Section 8(a)(ii). The assets and amounts available for any such approved distribution to the Members shall be determined by Board, taking into account the amounts required to establish and fund reasonable reserves for future costs and contingent liabilities and to provide for the future needs of the business of the Company; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the assets and amounts available for any distributions shall be calculated after, and net of, any and all payments that are due or are reasonably expected to come due within twelve (12) months of any such determination under that certain Loan Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and between the Allegro Member and the Company. Each distribution of cash or other property by the Company will be allocated to the Members in accordance with their respective Unit Percentages.

Whenever in this Agreement a Manager or other person is permitted or required to make a decision or take an action in “good faith” or under another expressed standard, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Manager or such other person shall act under such express standard, shall not be subject to any other, different or additional standard or duty (including any fiduciary duty, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein) and shall not be treated as or otherwise considered to have breached any duty (including any fiduciary duty, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein) as the result of acting in accordance with such standard.

Such Member shall deliver to the other Member written notice (the “Offer Notice”) of the proposed Transfer of its Offered Units, together with a copy of the Offer.

(ii)    Such non-transferring Member shall have the right (the “ROFR Right” and such Member, the “ROFR Member”), but not the obligation, for a period of forty-five (45) days (the “Offer Period”) following receipt of the Offer Notice to purchase all but not less than all of the Offered Units on the same terms and conditions as those in the Offer. To exercise such right, the ROFR Member shall notify the transferring Member in writing within the Offer Period of its election to purchase all of the Offer Units.

(iii)    In the event the ROFR Member does not elect to purchase all of the Offered Units within the Offer Period, but otherwise consents to the Transfer pursuant to Section 14(a), the Transferring Member shall be entitled to Transfer the Offered Units to the third party on the terms set forth in the Offer, subject however to the ROFR Member’s rights in Section 14(b). If the Transferring Member has not completed the sale of the applicable Units within 90 days following the ROFR Member’s election not to purchase the Offered Units, it shall not be permitted to thereafter sell such Offered Units without first complying with the provisions of this Section 14(c).

(d)    Other Transfer Restrictions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein:

(i)    Any Member proposing to Transfer its Units shall give notice to the Board of such Transfer at least five (5) business days prior to such Transfer.

(ii)    No Member may Transfer its Units or any portion thereof unless such Units or any portion thereof are first registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available.

(iii)    All reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the Company in connection with the Transfer of Units or any portion thereof shall be paid or reimbursed by the transferring Member upon demand by the Board.

(iv)    No transferee shall become a Member unless such transferee becomes a Member in accordance with the provisions of Section 15, and any purported Transfer shall be void unless and until the Transferee so becomes a Member.

(e)    Overriding Provisions.

(i)    The approval of any Transfer in any one or more instances shall not limit or waive the requirement for such approval in any other or future instance.

- 13 -

(ii)    All Transfers permitted under this Section 14 are subject to this Section 14(e).

(iii)    The Company shall promptly update its books and records to reflect any permitted Transfers of Units pursuant to this Section 14.

(f)    Involuntary Transfers. Any purported transfer of title or beneficial ownership of a Member’s Units upon default, bankruptcy, foreclosure, forfeit, divorce, court order or otherwise than by a voluntary decision on the part of a Member (each, an “Involuntary Transfer”) shall be void unless the Member complies with this Section 14(f) and enables the other Member to exercise in full its rights hereunder. Upon the Involuntary Transfer, the Company shall have the right to purchase such Units pursuant to this Section 14(f) and the Person to whom such Units have been Transferred (the “Involuntary Transferee”) shall have the obligation to sell such Units in accordance with this Section 14(f). Upon the Involuntary Transfer, such Member shall promptly (but in no event later than two (2) days after such Involuntary Transfer) furnish written notice to the other Member indicating that the Involuntary Transfer has occurred, specifying the name of the Involuntary Transferee, giving a detailed description of the circumstances giving rise to, and stating the legal basis for, the Involuntary Transfer. Upon the receipt of the notice described in the preceding sentence, and for sixty (60) days thereafter, the other Member shall have the right to purchase, and the Involuntary Transferee shall have the obligation to sell, all (but not less than all) of the Units acquired by the Involuntary Transferee for a purchase price equal to the lesser of (a) the fair market value of such Unit and (b) the amount of the indebtedness or other liability that gave rise to the Involuntary Transfer plus the excess, if any, of the carrying value of such Units over the amount of such indebtedness or other liability that gave rise to the Involuntary Transfer.

15.    Admission of New Members; Additional Issuances. After the date hereof, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including Section 6(e), Section 8(a)(ii) and Section 22(f)), additional persons may be admitted to the Company as Members (including by virtue of a Transfer of Membership Interests), new Membership Interests of any type, or any other debt or equity securities of the Company, including securities convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities of the Company, any equity or profit participation rights, or any rights, options or warrants to purchase any of the foregoing of the Company, may be created and issued to Members or non-Members, as determined by the Board on such terms and conditions as the Board may determine in its sole discretion, including the creation of different classes or groups of Members having different rights, powers and duties (but subject in all instances to Section 6(e), Section 8(a)(ii) and Section 22(f)). Any admission of a new Member (by virtue of an issuance or a Transfer of Membership Interests) shall be effective only after the new Member has executed and delivered to the Company a document including the new Member’s agreement to be bound in all respects by this Agreement. Following any issuance or Transfer approved in accordance with the terms hereof, the Board shall have the authority to amend Schedule 1 of this Agreement to reflect the updated register of Membership Interests.

16.    No Resignation. No Member may resign from the Company without the prior written consent of the Board. In the event of an approved resignation of a Member, such Member shall be entitled to receive only those distributions to which such Member is entitled under this Agreement that have been declared but are unpaid at the time of such Member’s resignation. Upon the resignation of any Member (whether under this Section 16 or otherwise), the Unit Percentages of all remaining Members shall automatically be adjusted.

AMENDMENT 1 TO WAFER FOUNDRY AGREEMENT

This Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment”) is effective as of March 28, 2020 (“Amendment 1 Effective Date”) and amends the Wafer Foundry Agreement by and between Allegro MicroSystems, LLC (“Allegro”) and Polar Semiconductor, LLC (“PSL”) dated April 12, 2013 (as amended, the “Agreement”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, Allegro and PSL entered into the Agreement whereby PSL agreed to manufacture and sell semiconductor wafers for Allegro and Allegro agreed to purchase such semiconductor wafers from PSL;

WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Master Transaction Agreement dated March 25, 2020 (the “MTA”) by and among Allegro, Sanken Electric Co., Ltd. (“Sanken”) and PSL, Allegro and Sanken have agreed, among other things, to undertake a series of restructuring transactions to effect an organizational restructuring of certain of their affiliates and direct and indirect subsidiaries, including PSL;

WHEREAS, Allegro and PSL now wish to amend the Agreement to, among other things, extend the term of the Agreement, and update and amend the economic and commercial terms relating to PSL’s manufacture of semiconductor wafers for Allegro; and

WHEREAS, based on the Parties’ expectations for forecasted volumes pursuant to Plan 5K (as defined herein), by PSL’s fiscal year 2023 Allegro intends (subject to various factors, any of which may change) to target volume demand that will constitute approximately [XXX]% of the current integrated circuit products capacity of semiconductor wafers manufactured by PSL.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises made herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

“For general long-range planning purposes, Allegro will provide a rolling three-year forecast of the total Production Wafers required, by process technology, to be updated annually with the first update occurring at the end of Allegro fiscal year 2021. In addition”

1

“Committed Capacity. PSL will reserve supply capacity in order to be able to supply Allegro with up to one hundred and ten percent (110%) of Allegro’s forecasted volumes as provided to PSL pursuant to the first sentence of Section 3.1.”

“Allegro agrees that it will purchase a minimum of ninety percent (90%) of its annual forecasted volumes for a fiscal year, calculated on a per-quarter basis (the “Minimum Purchase Quantity”). Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, should the volume in a given PSL fiscal year fall below the Minimum Purchase Quantity for such year, Allegro agrees to pay PSL, within sixty (60) days following the end of the applicable year, an amount equal to the fixed (unburdened) direct cost per Production Wafer (as projected annually) multiplied by the difference between the actual number of Production Wafers for the impacted year and the Minimum Purchase Quantity (any such amount, the “Shortfall Amount”). As of the Amendment 1 Effective Date, the fixed cost of a Production Wafer is estimated to be [XXX]% of Production Wafer cost, subject to change by mutual written agreement as calculated during PSL’s annual financial planning process. Payment of the Shortfall Amount will be Allegro’s sole responsibility and liability in the event that Allegro fails to meet the Minimum Purchase Quantity. Allegro will have no obligation to pay the Shortfall Amount if PSL is unable for any reason to satisfy the Minimum Purchase Quantity at any time.”

“In addition to PSL’s obligations set forth above in Section 2, Section 4.1 and in Appendix F, PSL will permit Allegro at Allegro’s election to place up to three quality assurance employees at Allegro’s expense on site at the PSL Bloomington Wafer Fab Facility or any successor facilities, with such employees remaining on Allegro’s payroll. PSL will permit any such employees to access the facilities and monitor PSL’s manufacturing services on Allegro’s behalf.”

“The prices of Production Wafers, Engineering Wafers and Masks will be as set forth in Appendix C.”

2

“The term of this Agreement will commence on the date first written above and continue until the three (3) year anniversary thereof, unless terminated earlier, pursuant to Sections 12.2, 12.3, or 12.4. The Agreement may be renewed for subsequent one (1) year periods by mutual written agreement of the Parties.”

“Upon (a) an assignment of this Agreement by PSL pursuant to the foregoing, or (b) a change of control of PSL, the acquiring entity will remain bound by the terms of this Agreement. Within forty-five (45) days following any such assignment or change of control of PSL, as applicable, Allegro will provide an updated non-binding long-term Wafer demand forecast (not to exceed five years of production). Thereafter, the assignee or acquiring entity, as applicable, will be obligated to fulfill the updated Wafer demand forecast in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the provisions of Section 3.9 will no longer apply.”

Appendix C

Wafer Pricing

The Production Wafer prices for PSL fiscal year 2021 will be as set forth in Schedule 1 unless otherwise adjusted. Wafer prices for PSL fiscal years 2022 and beyond shall not exceed FY2021 wafer pricing, but will be adjusted downwards based on the achievement of improved efficiencies at the PSL Bloomington Wafer Fab Facility or any successor facilities. If utilization is improved by enabling increased production capacity pursuant to “Plan 5K” or any other plan to add increased production capacity or improve yields adopted by Polar at the PSL Bloomington Wafer Fab Facility or any successor facilities (currently targeted in fiscal year 2023), Wafer pricing will be adjusted downwards to share productivity improvements equitably between Sanken and Polar. If “Plan 5K” or similar plan is implemented, PSL will achieve an ASP reduction of [XXX]% to be implemented beginning immediately after the three (3)-month shipment average of [XXX] manufacturing alignments / week is achieved, but no later than the beginning of PSL fiscal year [XXX] if the Agreement is extended. The percentage ASP reduction may be different if a different productivity improvement plan is agreed by the Parties.

RE: FY21 Price Support for Wafers Manufactured by Polar for Sanken and Allegro

Dear Mr. Walter:

This letter (“Letter Agreement”) by and among Allegro Microsystems, LLC (“Allegro”), and Polar Semiconductor, LLC (“PSL,” and collectively with Allegro the “Parties,” and each a “Party”) governs certain rights and obligations of the Parties (or their affiliates, as applicable) relating to the price support for wafers manufactured by PSL in FY21 for Allegro pursuant to the Wafer Foundry Agreement, dated April 12, 2013 by and between PSL and Allegro (as amended, the “Allegro Foundry Agreement”).

During PSL’s fiscal year 2021, the Parties agree that, irrespective of whether or not Allegro meets the Minimum Purchase Quantity (as defined in the Allegro Foundry Agreement) during PSL’s fiscal year 2021, Allegro shall pay to PSL prior to the end of fiscal year 2021, a price support payment of $5,930,000 (the “True Up Amount”) either by cash payment or as a reduction of PSL’s existing debt obligations to Allegro, at Allegro’s option. If Allegro elects to reduce PSL’s existing debt obligations, the reduction shall be applied to the payment amount due from PSL to Allegro on March 28, 2022 under the Consolidated and Restructured Loan Agreement between the parties dated March 28, 2020. The Parties agree that the price support payment of $5,930,000 is Allegro’s sole obligation for True Up in FY2021 and there will be no True Up Amount payable by Allegro in PSL’s fiscal year 2022 or any fiscal year thereafter.

The rights and obligations set forth in this Letter Agreement shall immediately terminate upon the sale or transfer by Allegro of its ownership interest in PSL.

This Letter Agreement shall not constitute a waiver, amendment, or modification of any provision of any other agreement except to the extent set forth herein. This Letter Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. This Letter Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and together which shall constitute one and the same instrument. A validly executed counterpart that is delivered by one Party to the other via electronic transmission will be valid and binding to the same extent as one delivered physically.

Each Party hereby confirms its acceptance of the terms and conditions set out above by executing this Letter Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises of the Parties, and of good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, it is agreed by and among the parties as follows:

1.    DEFINITIONS. The defined terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in this Section 1 or as defined elsewhere in the Agreement, and capitalized terms used in this Agreement but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the MTA.

1.1    “Affiliate” means any person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls or is controlled by or is under common control with the party specified, where “control” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct the management and policies of a person (whether through ownership of voting securities, contract or otherwise). For purposes of this Agreement, no party shall be considered an Affiliate of any other party.

1.2    “Confidential Information” means any and all technical and non-technical information that a party provides or makes available to any other party, whether in written, oral, graphic or electronic form, that is marked or otherwise identified at the time of disclosure as confidential or proprietary, or that would reasonably be deemed in the context of its disclosure to be confidential or proprietary, including trade secrets, know-how, designs, schematics, bills of material, customer lists, vendor lists, employee and contractor information, techniques, processes, software, technical documentation, specifications, plans or any other information relating to any research project, work in process, future development, technology and product roadmaps, scientific, engineering, manufacturing, marketing or business plan or financial or personnel matter relating to the disclosing party, its present or future products, services, sales, suppliers, customers, employees, investors or business.

1.4    “Governmental Body” means any government or any agency, bureau, commission, court, department, official, political subdivision, tribunal, board or other instrumentality of any administrative, judicial, legislative, executive, regulatory, police or taxing authority of any government, whether supranational, national, federal, state, regional, provincial, local, domestic or foreign.

1.5    “Pass-Through Expenses” means the pre-agreed out-of-pocket expenses incurred by a Service Provider in the provision of Services to a Recipient and chargeable to a Recipient, if specified in a Service Schedule, but not including any overhead costs, profits or other mark-ups.

1.6    “Service” means a set of tasks that a Service Provider will perform for a Recipient as further specified in a Service Schedule.

Each Service Provider reserves the right to unilaterally make reasonable modifications to the applicable Services in connection with changes to its internal organization in the ordinary course of business, such Service Provider’s policies and procedures or changes in applicable Law.

2.4    Third Party Consents. The parties shall use reasonable efforts to obtain any consent from a third party that is necessary in order for a Service Provider to provide any affected aspects of the Services.

Any costs and expenses payable to third parties in connection with the procurement of any consents pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall borne by the applicable Recipient.

2.5    Subcontractors. The Services may be provided in whole or in part by Affiliates of a Service Provider or by third party subcontractors (each, a “Subcontractor”) selected by such Service Provider or its Affiliates, provided that such Service Provider shall remain responsible to the applicable Recipient for the performance of the Services and that any such Subcontractors are under a contractual obligation with such Service Provider (under terms and conditions at least as restrictive as those in this Agreement) to (a) hold any Confidential Information received from such Recipient in confidence and to not disclose such Confidential Information to third parties, and (b) to use and protect data of, or received from, such Recipient to the extent required by this Agreement.

If a Recipient or a Service Provider is given access, whether on site or through remote access, to the computer systems, electronic data storage systems, or software (collectively, the “Systems”) of such Service Provider or Recipient, as applicable, in connection with the receipt or provision of Services, they shall comply with the applicable system security policies, information technology procedures, and user terms and requirements of the owner or operator of the Systems. Each Service Provider or Recipient, as applicable, shall access and use only those Systems for which such Service Provider or Recipient, as applicable has been granted access and shall use such Systems solely for the purpose of providing or receiving the applicable Services.
