Establishment of FY 2017 Cash Bonus Award Targets and Performance Criteria

On April 24, 2016, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Qorvo, Inc. (the “Company”), in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Company’s Cash Bonus Plan, established the cash bonus award targets and performance criteria applicable to eligible employees for the first six months of fiscal 2017 (the “FY17 Bonus Awards”). The bonus opportunity for the first six months of fiscal 2017 will represent 50% of the total bonus opportunity for fiscal 2017. The metrics used to measure performance will be sales and non-GAAP operating income and each metric has an established minimum, target and maximum level. During this performance period, each metric will constitute 50% of the total bonus opportunity.

With respect to the FY17 Bonus Awards, each named executive officer identified below has the opportunity to earn a cash bonus in an amount between 30% and 200% of his fiscal 2017 target bonus percentage (the “Target”), depending on the Company’s level of sales and non-GAAP operating income in relation to the Company’s Annual Operating Plan during the first six months of fiscal 2017. The Target has been established by the Committee as a percentage of each named executive officer’s base salary during the performance period. The bonus earned for each metric will be pro-rated for performance between minimum and maximum levels for such metric. No named executive officer will receive FY17 Bonus Awards that, in the aggregate, exceed 200% of his Target as established by the Committee.

The Target for each of the Company’s named executive officers is set forth below:

Robert A. Bruggeworth	150	%
