RECITALS

A. Parent, Merger Sub and Micro Linear Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Micro Linear” or the “Company”) have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as such agreement may hereafter be amended from time to time in conformity with the provisions thereof, the “Merger Agreement”), which provides for the merger of Merger Sub with and into Micro Linear, pursuant to which Micro Linear will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”).

C. As an inducement and a condition to entering into the Merger Agreement, Sirenza has requested that Stockholder agree, and Stockholder has agreed (in Stockholder’s capacity as such), to enter into this Agreement in order to facilitate the consummation of the Merger.

NOW, THEREFORE, intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Definitions.

(a) For the purposes of this Agreement, capitalized terms that are used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Merger Agreement.

(b) “Expiration Date” shall mean the earlier to occur of (i) such date and time as the Merger Agreement shall have been validly terminated pursuant to its terms, or (ii) such date and time as the Merger shall become effective in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement.

Except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement, at all times during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the Expiration Date, Stockholder shall not, directly or indirectly, (i) cause or permit the Transfer of any of the Shares to be effected, or discuss, negotiate or make any offer regarding any Transfer of any of the Shares, (ii) grant any proxies or powers of attorney with respect to any of the Shares, deposit any of the Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or other similar commitment or arrangement with respect to any of the Shares in contravention of the obligations of Stockholder under this Agreement, (iii) request that Micro Linear register the Transfer of any certificate or uncertificated interest representing any of the Shares, or (iv) take any action that would make any representation or warranty of Stockholder contained herein untrue or incorrect, or have the effect of preventing or disabling Stockholder from performing any of Stockholder’s obligations under this Agreement, other than to a signatory under this Voting Agreement in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii). Stockholder hereby agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, Micro Linear may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent in respect of the Shares.
