We are pleased to advise the Optionee (the “Optionee”) that Analog Devices, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (the “Company”), has granted to the Optionee an option to purchase that number of shares of Common Stock set forth below (the “Option”) subject to the terms and conditions of the Analog Devices, Inc. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), and this Global Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement, including Appendix A, which includes any applicable country-specific provisions. This Global Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement, together with Appendix A, is referred to as the “Agreement.” The grant of this Option reflects the Company’s confidence in the Optionee’s commitment and contributions to the success and continued growth of the Company.
All terms not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Plan.
1.Grant of Option. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the Company has granted to the Optionee an Option to purchase that number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Option Shares”) effective on the Date of Grant set forth below:
Date of Grant: {Grant Date}   
Number of Option Shares Granted: {Number of Awards Granted}
Option Exercise Price Per Share: {Grant Price}
2.Vesting and Exercise of Option. Subject to the Optionee’s continued employment with the Company or the Employer (as defined in 3(h) below) and other limitations set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, the Option will vest as to a set number of shares on each of the scheduled vesting dates. {Vesting Schedule}.
The right of exercise is cumulative, so that an Option, once vested, may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time up to {Expiration Date}, the expiration date, or such earlier date as provided in Section 3 below or in the country-specific provisions in Appendix A.
3.Term of Option; Termination of Employment.
(a)The term of the Option is ten (10) years after the Date of Grant, subject, however, to the early termination provisions set forth herein.
(b)Except as otherwise provided herein, the Option shall be exercisable by the Optionee (or his or her successor in interest) following the termination of the Optionee’s employment only to the extent that the Option was vested on or prior to the date of such termination.
(c)The vesting of the Option shall terminate on the date the Optionee voluntarily terminates employment with the Company or the Employer (as defined in Section 3(h)) (except by reason of retirement after attaining age 60 as provided below) or on the date his or her employment is terminated by the Company or the Employer without “Cause” (as defined in paragraph (d)), but any Option that is vested on the date of such termination shall continue to be exercisable for a period of three (3) months following such termination date.
1


(d)The Option shall terminate on the date the Optionee’s employment with the Company or the Employer is terminated by the Company or one of its subsidiaries for “Cause”, and all Option Shares that are then vested shall forthwith cease to be exercisable. “Cause” for this purpose means unsatisfactory job performance (as determined by the Company), willful misconduct, fraud, gross negligence, disobedience or dishonesty, or as otherwise determined under applicable law.
(e)Upon the death of the Optionee while he or she is an employee of the Company or the Employer, the Option shall become immediately vested in full as to all shares on the date of death and shall continue to be exercisable (by the Optionee’s successor in interest) over the remaining term of the Option.
(f)If the Optionee’s employment with the Company or the Employer terminates by reason of the retirement of the Optionee after attaining age 60, the vesting of the Option shall terminate on the date of such retirement, but any Option that is vested on the date of such retirement shall continue to be exercisable over the remaining term of the Option; provided that all then-exercisable Options held by such Optionee shall immediately cease to be exercisable in the event that such Optionee becomes an employee of any competitor of the Company or the Employer (as determined in the sole discretion of the Company).
(g)If the Optionee becomes Disabled, regardless of whether Optionee terminates employment with the Company or the Employer, the Option shall vest and become exercisable in full on the date the Optionee is determined to be Disabled and shall continue to be exercisable until the date that is ten (10) years after the Date of Grant, at which time the Option shall terminate. “Disabled” with respect to the Optionee means, when and if, as a result of disease, injury or mental disorder, the Optionee is incapable of engaging in regular service or occupation with the Company or the Employer (as defined in paragraph (h)) which has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, as determined by the Company.
(h)For purposes of this Agreement, employment shall include being an employee with the Company. Employment shall also include being an employee with any direct or indirect parent or subsidiary of the Company, or any successor to the Company or any such parent or subsidiary of the Company (the “Employer”). Should an Optionee transfer employment to become a director, consultant or advisor to the Company or the Employer following the Date of Grant, he or she will be considered employed for vesting purposes until he or she ceases to provide services to the Company or any direct or indirect parent or subsidiary of the company, or any successor to the Company or any such parent or subsidiary of the Company.
(i)Notwithstanding the provisions in this Section 3, if the Company or the Employer develops a good faith belief that any provision in this Section 3 may be found to be unlawful, discriminatory or against public policy in any relevant jurisdiction, then the Company in its sole discretion may choose not to apply such provision to this Option, nor any Option grant in the Optionee’s jurisdiction.
4.Payment of Exercise Price. The following payment methods may be used to purchase Option Shares:
(a)A cashless exercise in a manner described in Section 5(f)(2) of the Plan.
(b)Cash or check payable to the Company.
(c)Delivery by the Optionee of shares of Common Stock (by actual delivery or attestation) in accordance with Section 5(f)(3) of the Plan.
2


(d)Any combination of the above methods.
5.Non-Transferability of Option. Except in the event of death (whether by beneficiary designation or by will or the laws of descent and distribution) or as permitted by the Plan, this Option is personal and no rights granted hereunder shall be transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise), nor shall any such rights be subject to execution, attachment or similar process.
6.Adjustment. This Option is subject to adjustment (including with respect to vesting of the Option Shares) upon certain changes in the Common Stock and certain other events, including a Change in Control Event or a Reorganization Event, as provided in Section 10 of the Plan.
7.Withholding Taxes. Regardless of any action the Company or the Employer, if different, takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax related items related to the Optionee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Optionee (“Tax-Related Items”), the Optionee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains the Optionee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount, if any, actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. The Optionee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Option, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or exercise of the Option, the subsequent sale of Option Shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate the Optionee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Optionee has become subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction between the Date of Grant and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Optionee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Optionee will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, the Optionee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations, if any, with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (i) withholding from the Optionee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Optionee by the Company and/or the Employer; or (ii) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Option Shares acquired at exercise of the Option either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on the Optionee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization). The Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates in the Optionee’s jurisdiction(s), including maximum applicable rates. No fractional Option Shares will be issued pursuant to the grant of the Option and the issuance of Option Shares hereunder.
Finally, the Optionee shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of the Optionee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the shares or the proceeds of the sale of Option Shares, if the Optionee fails to comply with the Optionee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

24.Insider Trading Restrictions/Market Abuse Laws. The Optionee acknowledges that, depending on the Optionee’s or the Optionee’s broker’s country of residence or where the Common Stock is listed, the Optionee may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws, which may affect the Optionee’s ability to accept, acquire, sell, or otherwise dispose of Common Stock, rights to Common Stock (e.g., Options) or rights linked to the value of Common Stock (e.g., phantom awards, futures) during such times as Optionee is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company (as defined by the laws or regulations in the Optionee’s country). Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders the Optionee placed before possessing inside information. Furthermore, the Optionee could be prohibited from (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) “tipping” third parties or otherwise causing them to buy or sell securities.

APPENDIX A
2020 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
GLOBAL NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

This Appendix A includes additional terms and conditions that govern the Options granted to the Optionee if the Optionee resides and/or works in one of the countries listed herein. These terms and conditions are in addition to, or, if so indicated, in place of, the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Plan and/or the Agreement.
This Appendix A also includes certain issues of which the Optionee should be aware with respect to his or her participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control, income tax and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of October 2019. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that the Optionee not rely on the information noted herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date when the Optionee exercises the Options or when the Option Shares purchased under the Plan are subsequently sold.
In addition, the information is general in nature and may not apply to the Optionee’s particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure the Optionee of any particular result. Therefore, the Optionee should seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in the Optionee’s country may apply to his or her situation.
Finally, the Optionee understands that if he or she is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which the Optionee is currently working and/or residing, transfers employment and/or residency after the Date of Grant, or is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes, the information contained herein may not apply to the Optionee, and the Company shall, in its discretion, determine to what extent the terms and conditions contained herein shall apply.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO OPTIONEES OUTSIDE THE U.S.
Data Privacy Information and Consent. The Company is located at One Technology Way, Norwood, Massachusetts, 02062 U.S.A. and grants employees of the Company and its subsidiaries Options, at the Company’s sole discretion. If the Optionee would like to participate in the Plan, please review the following information about the Company’s data processing practices and declare the Optionee’s consent.
(a)Data Collection and Usage. The Company collects, processes and uses personal data of Optionees, including, name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, citizenship, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of all Options, canceled, vested, or outstanding in the Optionee’s favor, which the Company receives from the Optionee or the Employer. If the Company offers the Optionee a grant of Options under the Plan, then the Company will collect the Optionee’s personal data for purposes of allocating stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Company’s legal basis for the processing of the Optionee’s personal data would be his or her consent.
(b)Stock Plan Administration Service Providers. The Company transfers participant data to Fidelity Stock Plan Services LLC (“Fidelity”), an independent service provider based in the United States,
Appendix A-1


which assists the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. In the future, the Company may select a different service provider and share the Optionee’s data with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Company’s service provider will open an account for the Optionee to receive and trade shares of Common Stock. The Optionee will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the service provider, which is a condition to the Optionee’s ability to participate in the Plan.
(c)International Data Transfers. The Company and its service providers are based in the United States. If the Optionee is outside the United States, the Optionee should note that his or her country has enacted data privacy laws that are different from the United States and that the United States might not provide a level of protection of personal data equivalent to the level of protection in the Optionee’s country. The United States is subject to adequacy decisions by the European Commission and Swizterland acknowledging that the United States provides an adequate level of protection for personal data transferred to organizations in the United States that have self-certified under the EU/U.S. and Swiss/U.S. Privacy Shield Frameworks. In the absence of self-certification under the EU/U.S. and Swiss/U.S. Privacy Shield Frameworks, an appropriate level of protection for personal data transferred to the United States can be ensured by implementing appropriate safeguards such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses. The Company is not self-certified under the EU/U.S. and Swiss/U.S. Privacy Shield Frameworks. In order to ensure an appropriate level of protection for the transfer of the Optionee’s personal data to the Company in the United States, the Company has implemented the EU Standard Contractual Clauses. However, the onward transfer of the Optionee’s personal data by the Company to its service provider is not subject to appropriate safeguards such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses and is based solely on the Optionee’s consent. The Optionee understands and acknowledges that this might result in certain risks to the protection of his or her personal data due to the lack of legal principles governing the processing of the personal data, oversight by a supervisory authority or enforceable data subject rights in the United States.
(d)Data Retention. The Company will use the Optionee’s personal data only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Optionee’s participation in the Plan or as required to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, including under tax and security laws. If the Company keeps data longer, it would be to satisfy legal or regulatory obligations and the Company’s legal basis would be relevant laws or regulations.
(e)Voluntariness and Consequences of Consent Denial or Withdrawal. The Optionee’s participation in the Plan and the Optionee’s grant of consent is purely voluntary. The Optionee may deny or withdraw his or her consent at any time. If the Optionee does not consent, or if the Optionee withdraws his or her consent, the Optionee cannot participate in the Plan. This would not affect the Optionee’s salary from or employment with the Employer; the Optionee would merely forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan.
(f)Data Subject Rights. The Optionee has a number of rights under data privacy laws in his or her country. Depending on where the Optionee is based, the Optionee’s rights may include the right to (a) request access or copies of personal data the Company processes, (b) rectification of incorrect data, (c) deletion of data, (d) restrictions on processing, (e) portability of data, (f) lodge complaints with competent authorities in the Optionee’s country, and/or (g) a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Optionee’s personal data. To receive clarification regarding the Optionee’s rights or to exercise the Optionee’s rights please contact the Company at Analog Devices, Inc., One Technology Way, Norwood, Massachusetts, 02062 U.S.A., Attention: Stock Plan Administrator.
Appendix A-2


If the Optionee resides in a European Economic Area or European Union member state and agrees with the data processing practices described in this notice, the Optionee declares his or her consent by clicking “Accept Your Grant” on the Accepting Your Grants page on Fidelity’s participant website.
Language. The Optionee acknowledges that he or she is sufficiently proficient in English, or has consulted with an advisor who is sufficiently proficient in English, to understand the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Austria
Exchange Control Information. If the Optionee holds Option Shares acquired under the Plan outside Austria (even if he or she holds them outside Austria with an Austrian bank), then the Optionee understands that he or she must submit an annual report to the Austrian National Bank using the form “Standmeldung/Wertpapiere.” An exemption applies if the value of the securities held outside Austria does not exceed certain thresholds. If applicable, the deadline for filing the annual report is January 31 of the following year.
When the Option Shares are sold, there may be exchange control obligations if the cash received is held outside Austria, as a separate ongoing reporting requirement may apply to non-Austrian accounts. If the transaction value of all cash accounts abroad is less than a certain threshold, then no ongoing reporting requirements apply. However, if the transaction volume of all of the Optionee’s cash accounts abroad meets or exceeds a certain threshold, then the movements and the balance of all accounts must be reported monthly, as of the last day of the month, on or before the 15th day of the following month, using the form “Meldungen SI-Forderungen und/oder SI-Verpflichtungen.”
Belgium
Taxation of Option. The Optionee will not be permitted to accept the Options until after 60 days from the offer date. If the Optionee accepts the Options within 60 days of the offer date, the Optionee will be deemed to have accepted the Option after the 60th day from the offer date. Therefore, the Options will not be subject to Belgian tax until they are exercised by the Optionee.
Foreign Asset / Account Reporting Information. The Optionee is required to report any securities (e.g., Option Shares) or bank accounts opened and maintained outside Belgium on his or her annual tax return. In a separate report, certain details regarding such foreign accounts (including the account number, bank name and country in which such account was opened) must be reported to the Central Contact Point of the National Bank of Belgium. The forms to complete this report are available on the website of the National Bank of Belgium.
Stock Exchange Tax. A stock exchange tax applies to transactions executed by a Belgian resident through a financial intermediary, such as a bank or broker. If the transaction is conducted through a Belgian financial intermediary, it may withhold the stock exchange tax, but if the transaction is conducted through a non-Belgian financial intermediary, the Belgian resident may need to report and pay the stock exchange tax directly. The stock exchange tax likely will apply when Option Shares acquired under the Plan are sold. Belgian residents should consult with a personal tax or financial advisor for additional details on their obligations with respect to the stock exchange tax.
Brokerage Account Tax: A brokerage account tax applies to Belgian residents if the average annual value of securities (including Option Shares acquired under the Plan) held in a brokerage account exceeds certain thresholds. Belgian residents should consult with a personal tax or financial advisor for additional details on their obligations with respect to the brokerage account tax.
Appendix A-3


Canada
Securities Law Information. The Optionee is permitted to sell Option Shares acquired through the Plan through the designated broker appointed under the Plan, if any (or any other broker acceptable to the Company), provided the resale of Option Shares acquired under the Plan takes place outside Canada through the facilities of a stock exchange on which the Option Shares are listed. The Option Shares are currently listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market.
Payment of Exercise Price and Withholding Taxes. Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement or the Plan, the Optionee agrees to pay the Exercise Price and any Tax-Related Items solely by means of (i) cash, which may be paid by check, or other instrument acceptable to the Company or (ii) a broker-assisted cashless exercise, whereby the broker sells some or all of the Option Shares to be issued upon exercise to pay the Exercise Price, brokerage fees and any applicable Tax-Related Items. To the extent that tax regulatory requirements change, the Company reserves the right to permit the Optionee to exercise the Option and pay the Exercise Price and any applicable Tax-Related Items in Option Shares to the extent permitted by the Plan.
Termination of Employment. The following supplements Section 3 of the Agreement (except Section 3(g) regarding disability) as well as any other section required to give effect to the same:
In the event of termination of the Optionee’s employment for any reason (other than by reason of the Optionee’s death), either by the Optionee or by the Employer, with or without cause, the Optionee's right to vest or continue to vest in the Option under the Plan, if any, will terminate as of the actual Date of Termination. For this purpose, “Date of Termination” shall mean the last day on which the Optionee is actively employed by the Employer, and shall not include or be extended by any period following such day during which the Optionee is in receipt of or eligible to receive any notice of termination, pay in lieu of notice of termination, severance pay or any other payments or damages, whether arising under statute, contract or at common law.
Foreign Asset / Account Reporting Information. Foreign specified property (including cash held outside Canada or Option Shares) held by Canadian residents must be reported annually on Form T1135 (Foreign Income Verification Statement) if the cost of such foreign specified property exceeds C$100,000 at any time during the year. Foreign specified property may also include the unvested portion of the Options. The Options must be reported (generally at a nil cost) if the $100,000 cost threshold is exceeded because of other foreign specified property the Optionee holds. If Option Shares are acquired, their cost generally is the adjusted cost base (“ACB”) of the Option Shares. The ACB would normally equal the fair market value of the Option Shares at exercise, but if the Optionee owns other shares, this ACB may have to be averaged with the ACB of the other shares. If due, the Form must be filed by April 30 of the following year. The Optionee should consult with his or her personal tax advisor to determine the reporting requirements.
The following terms and conditions apply if the Optionee is in Quebec:
Data Privacy. This provision supplements the Data Privacy Information and Consent provision in the Terms and Conditions for Optionees Outside the U.S. set forth above:

The Optionee further authorizes the Company and the administrator of the Plan to disclose and discuss the Plan with their advisors. The Optionee further authorizes the Company and the Employer to record such information and to keep such information in the Optionee’s employee file.

China
The following provision applies if the Optionee is subject to exchange control restrictions and regulations in the People's Republic of China (“PRC”), including the requirements imposed by the China State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”), as determined by the Company in its sole discretion:
Vesting. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or the Agreement, the Options will not vest and no Option Shares will be issued to the Optionee unless and until all necessary exchange control or other approvals with respect to the Options under the Plan have been obtained from the SAFE or its local counterpart (“SAFE Approval”). In the event that SAFE Approval has not been obtained prior to any date(s) on which the Options are scheduled to vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the Agreement, the Options will not vest until the seventh day of the month following the month in which SAFE Approval is obtained (the “Actual Vesting Date”). If the Optionee’s status as a service provider terminates prior to the Actual Vesting Date, the Optionee shall not be entitled to vest in any portion of the Options and the Options shall be forfeited without any liability to the Company, the Employer or any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company.
Payment of Exercise Price. The following supplements Section 4 of the Agreement:
Due to regulatory requirements in the PRC, the Optionee will be required to exercise the Option using a broker assisted cashless sell-all exercise method pursuant to which all Option Shares subject to the exercised Option will be sold immediately upon exercise and the proceeds of sale, less any broker’s fees or commissions, will be remitted to the Optionee. The Optionee will not be permitted to hold Option Shares after exercise. The Optionee understands and agrees that the Tax-Related Items with respect to the exercise of the Options may be taken by the Employer from the Optionee’s salary or other cash compensation. The Optionee acknowledges that the Company’s designated broker is under no obligation to arrange for the sale of the Option Shares pursuant to the cashless sell-all exercise method at any particular price. The Company reserves the right to provide additional methods of exercise depending on the development of local law.
Exchange Control Requirements. Due to exchange control laws in the PRC, if the Optionee is a PRC national he or she will be required to repatriate the proceeds from the cashless sell-all exercise to the PRC. The Optionee understands and agrees that such cash proceeds must be repatriated to the PRC through a special exchange control account established by the Company, the Employer, or a subsidiary of the Company, and the Optionee hereby consents and agrees that any proceeds from the sale of Option Shares may be transferred to such special account prior to being delivered to the Optionee.
Further, notwithstanding Section 3(e) or 3(g) of the Agreement, if the Optionee terminates employment with the Company or the Employer due to death or the Optionee becomes Disabled as determined by the Company, the vesting of the Option shall accelerate on the date of such termination or determination of disability, and the Option shall continue to be exercisable for a period of three (3) months (or such other
Appendix A-5


period as may be required by the SAFE) following the termination date due to death or disability. If the Optionee or the Optionee’s heirs do not exercise the Option within three (3) months (or such other period as may be required by the SAFE) of the Optionee’s death or date of termination in the event of disability, the Option will be forfeited and the Optionee or the Optionee’s heirs will not be able to exercise the Option.
The Optionee understands and agrees that there will be a delay between the date the Option Shares are sold and the date the cash proceeds are distributed to the Optionee. The Optionee also understands and agrees that the Company is not responsible for any currency fluctuation that may occur between the date the Option Shares are sold and the date the cash proceeds are distributed to the Optionee. The Optionee further agrees to comply with any other requirements that may be imposed by the Company in the future to facilitate compliance with exchange control requirements in the PRC.

If the Optionee maintains bank or brokerage accounts holding cash and foreign securities (including Option Shares) outside of Poland, the Optionee will be required to report information to the National Bank of Poland on transactions and balances in such accounts if the value of such cash and securities exceeds PLN 7,000,000. If required, such reports must be filed on a quarterly basis on special forms available on the website of the National Bank of Poland.
Exchange Control Information. The transfer of funds in excess of a certain threshold (currently €15,000, unless the transfer of funds is considered to be connected with the business activity of an entrepreneur, in which case a lower threshold may apply) into or out of Poland must be made through a bank account in Poland. The Optionee understands that he or she is required to store all documents connected with any foreign exchange transactions for a period of five years, as measured from the end of the year in which such transaction occurred. The Optionee should consult with his or her personal legal advisor to determine what he or she must do to fulfill any applicable reporting/exchange control duties.
Romania
Exchange Control Information. If the Optionee deposits the proceeds from the sale of Option Shares acquired at exercise of the Option in a bank account in Romania, the Optionee may be required to provide the Romanian bank with appropriate documentation explaining the source of the funds. The Optionee should consult his or her personal advisor to determine whether he or she will be required to submit such documentation to the Romanian bank.
Serbia
Securities Law Information. The grant of Options and the issuance of any Option Shares are not subject to the regulations concerning public offers and private placements under the Law on Capital Markets.
Exchange Control Information. Pursuant to the Law on Foreign Exchange Transactions, the Optionee is permitted to acquire Option Shares under the Plan, but a report may need to be made of the acquisition of such Option Shares, the value of the Option Shares at exercise, and, on a quarterly basis, any changes in the value of the Option Shares. As the exchange control regulations in Serbia may change without notice, the Optionee should consult with his or her personal advisor with respect to all applicable reporting obligations.
Singapore
Securities Law Information. The Options were granted to the Optionee pursuant to the “Qualifying Person” exemption under section 273(1)(f) of the Singapore Securities and Futures Act (Chapter 289, 2006 Ed.) (“SFA”). The Agreement and the Plan have not been lodged or registered as a prospectus with the Monetary Authority of Singapore. The Optionee should note that the Options are subject to section 257 of the SFA and the Optionee will not be able to make any subsequent sale in Singapore, or any offer of such subsequent sale of the Option Shares unless such sale or offer in Singapore is made pursuant to the exemptions under Part XIII Division (1) Subdivision (4) (other than section 280) of the SFA.

Appendix A-15


Chief Executive Officer and Director Notification. If the Optionee is the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) or a director, associate director or shadow director of a subsidiary or other related company in Singapore, the Optionee is subject to certain notification requirements under the Singapore Companies Act. Among these requirements is an obligation to notify the Singapore subsidiary in writing when the Optionee receives an interest (e.g., Options, Option Shares) in the Company or any related company. In addition, the Optionee must notify the Singapore subsidiary when the Optionee sells Option Shares of the Company or any related company (including when the Optionee sells Option Shares acquired under the Plan). These notifications must be made within two (2) business days of (i) acquiring or disposing of any interest in the Company or any related company, or (ii) any change in a previously-disclosed interest (e.g., upon exercise of the Options or when Option Shares are subsequently sold). In addition, a notification must be made of the Optionee’s interests in the Company or any related company within two (2) business days of becoming a CEO or director, associate director, or shadow director.
Spain
No Entitlement for Claims or Compensation. In accepting the Options, the Optionee acknowledges that he or she consents to participation in the Plan and has received a copy of the Plan. The Optionee understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and in its sole discretion decided to grant Options under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or its subsidiaries throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any Options will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its subsidiaries on an ongoing basis. Consequently, the Optionee understands that the Options are granted on the assumption and condition that the Options and the underlying Option Shares acquired upon exercise shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any of its subsidiaries) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. In addition, the Optionee understands that the Option would not have been granted to the Optionee but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, the Optionee acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any Options shall be null and void.
Further, and except as provided in Section 3(g) of the Agreement in the event Optionee becomes Disabled, the vesting of the Option is expressly conditioned on the Optionee’s continued rendering of service, such that if the Optionee’s employment terminates for any reason whatsoever, the Options will cease vesting immediately, in whole or in part, effective on the date of the Optionee’s termination of employment (unless otherwise specifically provided in Section 3 of the Agreement). This will be the case, for example, even if (1) the Optionee is considered to be unfairly dismissed without Cause (i.e., subject to a “despido improcedente”); (2) the Optionee is dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (3) the Optionee terminates service due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; (4) the Optionee terminates service due to a unilateral breach of contract by the Company or the Employer; or (5) the Optionee’s employment terminates for any other reason whatsoever. Consequently, upon termination of the Optionee’s employment for any of the above reasons, the Optionee will automatically lose any rights to Options that were not vested on the date of the Optionee’s termination of employment, as described in the Plan and the Agreement. The Optionee understands that the Option grant would not be made to the Optionee but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, the Optionee acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any Option grant shall be null and void.

Appendix A-16


The Optionee acknowledges that he or she has read and specifically accepts the conditions referred to in Section 3 of the Agreement.
Securities Law Notification. The grant of Options and the Option Shares issued upon exercise of the Option are considered a private placement outside of the scope of Spanish laws on public offerings and issuances of securities. No “offer of securities to the public”, as defined under Spanish law, has taken place or will take place in the Spanish territory. This Agreement has not been or will it be registered with the Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores, and does not constitute a public offering prospectus.
Exchange Control Notification. The Optionee acknowledges that he or she must declare any Option Shares that are acquired under the Plan to the Dirección General de Comercio e Inversiones of the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (the “DGCI”). After the initial declaration, the declaration must be filed with the DGCI on an annual basis each January while the Option Shares are owned; however, if the value of the Option Shares or the sale proceeds exceed a certain amount, a declaration must be filed within one month of the acquisition or sale, as applicable.
Foreign Asset / Account Reporting Information. To the extent that the Optionee holds assets (e.g., cash or Option Shares held in a bank or brokerage account) outside Spain with a value in excess of €50,000 per type of asset (e.g., Option Shares, cash, and so on) as of December 31 each year, the Optionee will be required to report information on such assets on his or her tax return for such year (tax form 720). After such assets are initially reported, the reporting obligation will only apply for subsequent years if the value of any previously-reported assets increases by more than €20,000. If applicable, the reporting must be completed by March 31. Failure to comply with this reporting requirement may result in penalties to the Optionee. Accordingly, the Optionee should consult with his or her personal tax and legal advisors to ensure that he or she is properly complying with his or her reporting obligations.
Further, the Optionee is required to declare to the Bank of Spain any securities accounts (including brokerage accounts held abroad), as well as the securities held in such accounts if the value of the transactions for all such accounts during the prior tax year or the balances in such accounts as of December 31 of the prior tax year exceeds €1,000,000.
Sweden
Automatic Cashless Exercise and Sale. The grant of the Option is conditioned on the Optionee’s agreement to the below.
The Optionee agrees that, if he or she has not previously exercised the Option to the maximum extent possible in accordance with its terms prior to the first day on which the closing price of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) equals or exceeds 200% of the Exercise Price, then the Optionee will be deemed to have exercised the Option to the maximum extent possible in accordance with its terms on such date by means of a cashless exercise in the manner described in the Plan and the Agreement and to have directed the immediate sale of all of the Option Shares thereby purchased. The Optionee hereby authorizes the Company (or its designated broker pursuant to this authorization) to effect such cashless exercise and sale transaction on the Optionee’s behalf as soon as administratively possible, and to cause to be remitted to the Optionee the net proceeds, after deduction of the Exercise Price and all Tax-Related Items required to be withheld by the Company or Analog Devices A.B.
To the extent that the Option by its terms is not exercisable on such date, the Optionee will be deemed to have exercised the Option and directed the immediate sale of all of the Option Shares thereby purchased on the first day thereafter on which it becomes exercisable on which the closing price of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq equals or exceeds 200% of the Exercise Price, and the Optionee grants the same
Appendix A-17


authority to the Company as set forth in the preceding sentence. The Optionee agrees to execute and deliver any documentation which the Company’s designated broker may require in connection with this arrangement. The Company is authorized to act in this matter on behalf of Analog Devices A.B.
Switzerland
Securities Law Information. This Option grant is not intended to be a public offering in Switzerland and is therefore not subject to registration in Switzerland. Neither this document nor any materials relating to the Option Shares constitutes a prospectus as such term is understood pursuant to article 652a of the Swiss Code of Obligations and neither this document nor any other materials relating to the Option Shares may be publicly distributed or otherwise made publicly available in Switzerland. Neither this document nor any other offering or marketing material relating to the Options has been or will be filed with, approved or supervised by any Swiss regulatory authority (in particular, the Swiss Financial Supervisory Authority (FINMA)).
Taiwan
Data Privacy. The Optionee acknowledges that he or she has read and understands the terms regarding collection, processing and transfer of Data contained in the Data Privacy Information and Consent provision of the Terms and Conditions for Optionees outside the U.S. and agrees that, upon the request of the Company or the Employer, the Optionee will provide any executed data privacy consent form to the Employer or the Company (or any other agreements or consents that may be required by the Employer or the Company) that the Company and/or the Employer may deem necessary to obtain under the data privacy laws in the Optionee's country, either now or in the future. The Optionee understands he or she will not be able to participate in the Plan if the Optionee fails to execute any such consent or agreement.
Securities Law Information. The option and participation in the Plan is made available only to employees of the Company and the Employer. It is not a public offer of securities by a Taiwanese company. Therefore, it is exempt from registration in Taiwan.
Exchange Control Information. Individuals may acquire foreign currency (including proceeds from the sale of Option Shares) into Taiwan up to US$5,000,000 per year without justification.
There is no need to aggregate all remittances into Taiwan when calculating the limitation. If the transaction amount is TWD$500,000 or more in a single transaction, the Optionee must submit a Foreign Exchange Transaction Form and also provide supporting documentation to the satisfaction of the remitting bank.
Turkey
Manner of Exercising Option. This provision supplements Section 4 of the Agreement
Due to legal restrictions in Turkey, Optionee may be required to exercise his or her option using the cashless sell-all exercise method whereby all Option Shares subject to the exercised option will be sold immediately upon exercise and the proceeds of the sale, less the Exercise Price, any Tax-Related Items and broker's fees or commissions will be remitted to Optionee in accordance with any applicable laws and regulations. Optionee will not be permitted to acquire and hold Option Shares after exercise. The Company reserves the right to provide additional methods of exercise to Optionee depending on the development of local law.
Appendix A-18


Securities Law Information. Under Turkish law, the Optionee is not permitted to sell any Option Shares acquired under the Plan in Turkey. The Option Shares are currently traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, under the ticker symbol “ADI” and the Option Shares may be sold through this exchange.
Exchange Control Information. The Optionee may be required to engage a Turkish financial intermediary to assist with the sale of Option Shares acquired under the Plan. As the Optionee is solely responsible for complying with any applicable financial intermediary requirements, the Optionee should consider consulting his or her personal legal advisor prior to the exercise of the Options or any sale of Option Shares to ensure compliance.
United Kingdom
Responsibility for Taxes. This provision supplements Section 7 of the Agreement:
Without limitation to Section 7 of the Agreement, the Optionee agrees that the Optionee is liable for all Tax-Related Items and hereby covenants to pay all such Tax-Related Items, as and when requested by the Company or the Employer or by Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). The Optionee also agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and the Employer against any Tax–Related Items that they are required to pay or withhold or have paid or will pay to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority) on the Optionee’s behalf.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Optionee is a director or executive officer (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act), the Optionee understands that he or she may not be able to indemnify the Company for the amount of any Tax-Related Items not collected from or paid by the Optionee, in case the indemnification could be considered to be a loan. In this case, the Tax-Related Items not collected or paid may constitute a benefit to the Optionee on which additional income tax and National Insurance contributions (“NICs”) may be payable. The Optionee understands that he or she will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for paying to the Company and/or the Employer (as appropriate) the amount of any NICs due on this additional benefit, which may also be recovered from the Optionee by any of the means referred to in Section 7 of the Agreement.
Joint Election. As a condition of the Optionee’s participation in the Plan and the exercise of the Option, the Optionee agrees to accept any liability for secondary Class 1 National Insurance contributions which may be payable by the Company and/or the Employer in connection with the Option and any event giving rise to Tax-Related Items (the “Employer’s Liability”). Without prejudice to the foregoing, the Optionee agrees to enter into a joint election with the Company, the form of such joint election being formally approved by HMRC (the “Joint Election”), and any other required consent or elections. The Optionee further agrees to enter into such other Joint Elections as may be required between the Optionee and any successor to the Company and/or the Employer. The Optionee further agrees that the Company and/or the Employer may collect the Employer’s Liability from the Optionee by any of the means set forth in Section 7 of the Agreement.
If the Optionee does not enter into the Joint Election prior to the exercise of the Option, the Optionee will forfeit the Option and any Option Shares that have been issued will be returned to the Company at no cost to the Company, without any liability to the Company and/or the Employer.
The Joint Election is attached hereto as Appendix D. If the Optionee has signed a Joint Election in the past with respect to Options granted to him or her by the Company and that Joint Election applies to all
Appendix A-19


grants made under the Plan, the Optionee need not sign another Joint Election in connection with this Option grant.

SPECIAL NOTICE FOR DANISH EMPLOYEES EMPLOYER STATEMENT
If Section 3(1) of the Act on Stock Options in employment relations, as amended as of January 1, 2019 (the “Act”) applies to your stock option grant, you are entitled to receive the following information regarding Analog Devices, Inc.’s (the “Company’s”) stock option program in a separate written statement.
This statement contains only the information mentioned in the Act. The other terms and conditions of your stock option grant are described in detail in the Analog Devices, Inc. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), and the Global Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement, including the country-specific appendix (the “Agreement”), which have been given to you.
1. Time of grant of option to purchase stock
The grant date for your stock option is the date that the Company approved a grant for you.
2. Terms or conditions for option grant
The grant of stock options will be at the sole discretion of the Company. The Company has very broad powers to determine who will receive awards and when, and to set the terms of the awards. The Company may decide, in its sole discretion, not to make any grants of stock options to you in the future. Under the terms of the Plan and the Agreement, you have no entitlement or claim to receive future option grants.
3. Vesting date or period
Your stock option will vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in Section 1 of your Agreement.
4. Exercise price
During the exercise period, the stock options can be exercised to purchase stock in the Company at the exercise price stated in the notice of grant which will be no less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock at the time of grant, as determined by the Company.
5. Your rights upon termination of employment
In the event you terminate employment with the Company group, the vesting and exercise of your Options will be determined in accord with the terms of your Agreement. In addition, you will be ineligible to receive any additional Option grants after your termination.
6. Financial aspects of participating in the Plan
The grant of stock options has no immediate financial consequences for you. The value of the options is not taken into account when calculating holiday allowances, pension contributions or other statutory consideration calculated on the basis of salary.
Shares of stock are financial instruments and investing in stocks will always have financial risk. The possibility of profit at the time of exercise will not only be dependent on the Company’s financial development, but also on the general development of the stock market. In addition, before or after you exercise your options, the shares of Company stock could decrease in value even below the exercise price.

ARBEJDSGIVERERKLÆRING
Såfremt § 3, stk. 1, i lov om brug af køberet eller tegningsret m.v. i ansættelsesforhold, som ændret med virkning fra 1. januar 2019 (“Aktieoptionsloven”) finder anvendelse på din tildeling af aktieoptioner, er du berettiget til i en særskilt skriftlig erklæring at modtage følgende oplysninger om Analog Devices, Inc.’s (“Selskabets”) aktieoptionsprogram.
Denne erklæring indeholder kun de oplysninger, der er nævnt i Aktieoptionsloven. De øvrige kriterier og betingelser for din tildeling af aktieoptioner er detaljeret beskrevet i Analog Devices, Inc. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (“Planen”) og i Global Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement inkl. det landespecifikke tillæg (“Aftalen”), som du har fået udleveret.
1. Tidspunktet for tildeling af retten til at købe aktier
Tidspunktet for tildelingen af din aktieoption er den dato, hvor Selskabets godkendte din tildeling.
2. Kriterier og betingelser for optionstildelingen
Tildelingen af aktieoptioner sker efter Selskabet eget skøn. Selskabet har meget vide beføjelser til at bestemme, hvem der modtager tildelinger og hvornår, og til at fastsætte betingelserne for tildelingerne. Selskabet kan frit beslutte ikke fremover at tildele dig nogen aktieoptioner. I henhold til Planen og Aftalen har du ikke nogen ret til eller noget krav på i fremtiden at få tildelt optioner.
3. Modningstidspunkt eller-periode
Din aktieoption modnes som anført i den modningsplan, der fremgår af afsnit 1 i Aftalen.
4. Udnyttelseskurs
I udnyttelsesperioden kan aktieoptionerne udnyttes til køb af aktier i Selskabet til den udnyttelseskurs, som er angivet i tildelingsmeddelelsen, og som ikke vil være mindre end 100% af aktiernes markedskurs på tildelingstidspunktet som fastsat af Selskabet.
5. Din retsstilling i forbindelse med fratræden
Hvis din ansættelse i Selskabet eller dets koncern ophører, afhænger modningen og fortabelsen af aktieoptioner af vilkårene i Aftalen. Derudover vil du ikke være berettiget til at få tildelt yderligere aktieoptioner efter din fratræden.
6. Økonomiske aspekter ved at deltage i Planen
Tildelingen af aktieoptioner har ingen umiddelbare økonomiske konsekvenser for dig. Værdien af optionerne indgår ikke i beregningen af feriepenge, pensionsbidrag eller øvrige lovpligtige ydelser, der beregnes på grundlag af lønnen.
Aktier er finansielle instrumenter, og investering i aktier vil altid være forbundet med en økonomisk risiko. Således afhænger muligheden for at opnå en fortjeneste på udnyttelsestidspunktet ikke blot af Selskabets økonomiske udvikling, men også af den generelle udvikling på aktiemarkedet. Derudover kan Selskabets aktier både før og efter udnyttelsestidspunktet falde til en værdi, der måske endda ligger under udnyttelseskursen.
