WARRANT TO PURCHASE SHARES
This Warrant is issued to Amazon.com NV Investment Holdings LLC (the “Holder”) by Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd (the “Company”). The Holder is entitled to exercise this Warrant to purchase equity of the Company (the “Warrant Shares”) as more particularly described in Exhibit A hereto (the “Schedule of Terms”), on the terms provided herein and in the Schedule of Terms. The Warrant Shares will vest and become exercisable in accordance with the vesting terms provided in the Schedule of Terms, and this Warrant is non-forfeitable with respect to vested Warrant Shares.
1.    Exercise of Warrant
1.1    Exercise Period. This Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part, at any time during the Exercise Period (as defined in the Schedule of Terms) subject to vesting in accordance with the Vesting Schedule (as defined in the Schedule of Terms).
1.2     Method of Exercise. The Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering to the Company (a) this Warrant and (b) the Notice of Exercise attached as Exhibit B hereto, duly executed by the Holder, indicating whether the Holder elects to purchase Warrant Shares for cash or if the Holder elects to exercise on a net issuance basis. Nothwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event any approval requirements or waiting periods are imposed by applicable antitrust or foreign investment laws or any other applicable law, the Holder may deliver a Notice of Exercise that is contingent upon obtaining such approval or the expiration of such waiting period, and the Exercise Period will be stayed during the pendency of such approval or waiting period so long as the Holder delivers the Notice of Exercise before the expiration of the Exercise Period. The Company shall not be obligated to issue the Warrant Shares subject to such contingent Notice of Exericse until all such approval requirements or waiting periods are met and/or exhausted, as applicable.
1.3     Cash Exercise. If the Holder elects to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares for cash, the Holder will make payment by check or wire transfer in the amount of the Exercise Price (as defined in the Schedule of Terms, subject to adjustment as provided herein) multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is being exercised. The Exercise Price is the product of an arms’-length negotiation and is intended to reflect the present fair market value of the Warrant Shares, as determined by the Company’s November 1, 2021, 409A valuation report.
1.4    Net Issuance. If the Holder elects to exercise this Warrant on a net issuance basis, the Holder will not be required to make a cash payment, and the Company will issue to the Holder a number of Warrant Shares computed using the following formula:
X = (A - B) x C      where:
                    A
X    =    the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder;
A    =    the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of one Warrant Share on the date of net issuance exercise;
B    =    the Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation); and
C   =    the number of Warrant Shares issuable under this Warrant or, if only a portion of this Warrant is being exercised, the number of Warrant Shares as to which the Holder elects to exercise.


2.    Delivery of Certificates; No Fractional Shares
Within five days after exercise of this Warrant, the Company will at its expense issue and deliver to the Holder (a) an updated register of members of the Company showing the issuance of the Warrant Shares in the name of the Holder, (b) an electronic certificate or other evidence of the valid issuance of the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon such exercise, and (c) if applicable, a new warrant with terms identical to this Warrant to purchase that number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant has not been exercised. The Holder will for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Warrant Shares on the date this Warrant is exercised, irrespective of the date of the update of the register of members or the delivery of certificate(s) representing the Warrant Shares. No fractional shares or scrip will be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant.In lieu of any fractional share to which a Warrantholder would otherwise be entitled, the fractional Warrant Shares shall be rounded up to the next whole Warrant Share and the Warrantholder shall be entitled to receive such rounded up number of Warrant Shares.
3.    Representations, Warranties, and Covenants
3.1    The Company represents and warrants that it is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation. The Company represents and warrants that all corporate actions, approvals, and consents on the part of the Company, its officers, directors, and equityholders, and any third party necessary for the sale and issuance of this Warrant and the Warrant Shares have been taken, including the reservation of sufficient Warrant Shares.
3.2    The Company represents and warrants that the capitalization table attached as Exhibit C hereto accurately and completely reflects the Company’s authorized and issued equity capital as of the Issue Date. All of the outstanding shares of equity of the Company have been duly authorized, are fully paid and nonassessable, and were issued in compliance with applicable law.
3.3    The Company covenants that at all times during the Exercise Period there will be reserved for issuance such number of shares as is necessary for exercise in full of this Warrant. All Warrant Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant will, upon their issuance, be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable, free and clear of all liens and other encumbrances or restrictions on sale, and free and clear of all preemptive rights, and such Warrant Shares will be issued free from all taxes, liens, and charges with respect to the issuance thereof.

4.    Certain Events
4.1    Change of Control. If there is a Change of Control (as defined below) during the Exercise Period in which the consideration to be received by the shareholders of the Company consists solely of cash and the Holder has not exercised this Warrant in full prior to consummation of such Change of Control, and if the Fair Market Value of one Warrant Share (as of the closing date of such Change of Control) is greater than the Exercise Price, this Warrant will be deemed automatically exercised pursuant to a net issuance exercise under Section 1.4 (even if not surrendered) immediately before the consummation of such Change of Control, and the Holder will be entitled to receive a portion of the proceeds payable in the Change of Control equal to the amount payable to holders of the same number and class of shares as the Holder is entitled to receive pursuant to such exercise. This Warrant will automatically terminate (without relieving the Company or its successor of any obligations arising from a prior breach or non-compliance) following the payment of the amounts due to the Holder in connection with such Change of Control. If there is a Change
-2-


of Control during the Exercise Period in which the consideration to be received by the shareholders of the Company consists of securities or other non-cash property, then the Company will cause the acquiring, surviving, or successor person to assume the obligations of this Warrant, and this Warrant will thereafter be exercisable for the same securities or other non-cash property that a holder of the same class of shares as the Warrant Shares would have been entitled to receive in connection with such transaction if such holder held the same number of shares as were purchasable under this Warrant if this Warrant had been exercised in full immediately before the consummation of such Change of Control, subject to further adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.
4.2    Listing Event.
(a)    In the event that the Company intends to undertake a Listing Event (as defined in Section 10.1(f)), the Company will provide the Holder with notice no less than 14 days prior to filing or submitting (whether or not on a confidential basis) a registration statement (including a draft registration statement) or listing application to any governmental securities regulator, securities self-regulatory organization or stock exchange that includes disclosure of Holder or its affiliates in connection with a Listing Event (a “Listing Event Notice”) and provide to the Holder a copy of such filing, submission, or application, which will be treated as confidential in accordance with the terms of the applicable non-disclosure agreement between the Holder and its affiliates and the Company.
(b)    In the event that the Company determines that this Warrant or the terms hereof are required to be disclosed pursuant to applicable securities laws and regulations or stock exchange requirements in connection with the Listing Event, the Company will provide the Holder with prompt written notice and an opportunity to comment on the proposed disclosure before such disclosure is made and, if requested by the Holder, will use commercially reasonable efforts (in cooperation with the Holder) to redact, seek a protective order or confidential treatment, or take other appropriate action to, if possible avoid, or otherwise limit such disclosure.
(c)    Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary: (i) from and after the calendar day preceding the earliest of (A) the filing or submission of a registration statement (including a draft registration statement) that includes disclosure of beneficial owners of the Company’s equity in connection with a Listing Event, (B) the “as of” date used by the Company or any successor or assign thereto for disclosure of beneficial owners in any registration statement and (C) the date that shares of the same class as the Warrant Shares are traded on an exchange or an over-the-counter market, the Company will not honor any exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder will not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, to the extent that, after giving effect to an attempted exercise set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (or any of its affiliates and other persons whose beneficial ownership of the relevant securities would be aggregated with Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Exchange Act), would beneficially own in excess of 4.999% of any class of voting equity securities subject to the Exchange Act, calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the related rules and regulations and after giving effect to the exercise of this Warrant; (ii) none of the limitations of clause (i) will be taken into account when determining the amount of securities or other non-cash property subject to the assumed Warrant or the amount of cash the Holder is entitled to receive in the event of a Change of Control; (iii) the provisions of this sentence should be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this sentence to correct this sentence (or any portion hereof) to the extent that it may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation of clause (i) or make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation; and (iv) the limitations in clause (i) may be waived or amended by the Holder, in its sole discretion, upon written notice to the Company, which waiver or amendment will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered by the Holder to the Company.
(d)    In connection with the Company’s currently contemplated Listing Event, the Holder shall execute and deliver a “lock-up” letter agreement substantially in the form attached as Exhibit E hereto.
4.3    Automatic Exercise before Expiration. To the extent this Warrant is not previously exercised as to all of the Warrant Shares issuable hereunder, and if the Fair Market Value of one Warrant Share (at such measurement date) is greater than the Exercise Price, this Warrant will be deemed automatically exercised pursuant to a net issuance exercise under Section 1.4 (even if not surrendered) immediately before its expiration. To the extent this Warrant or any portion thereof is deemed automatically exercised pursuant to this Section, the Company agrees promptly to notify the Holder in writing of the number of Warrant Shares, if any, the Holder is to receive by reason of such automatic exercise.

5.    Adjustments
5.1    Reorganization. Upon any reclassification, capital reorganization, or change in the share capital of the Company affecting the same class of shares as the Warrant Shares (other than a Change of Control transaction covered by Section 4.1, but including any merger or other transaction involving a special purpose acquisition company which results in the shares of the same class as the Warrant Shares being converted into or exchanged for publicly-traded securities if such transaction does not constitute a Change of Control), the Company will make appropriate provision so that the Holder will thereafter be entitled to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the number and type of securities or other property that a holder of the same class of shares as the Warrant Shares would have been entitled to receive in connection with such transaction if such holder held the same number of shares as were purchasable under this Warrant if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before such reclassification, reorganization, or change, and thereafter all references to the “Company” in this Warrant will refer to the issuer of such securities or other property.
5.2    Adjustments for Share Splits, Dividends. If the Company, directly or indirectly, issues any shares of the same class as the Warrant Shares as a share dividend, or subdivides or combines such class of shares in a share split, then the Exercise Price in effect before such dividend, subdivision, or combination will be proportionately decreased or increased, as applicable, and the number of Warrant Shares at that time issuable pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant will be proportionately increased or decreased, as applicable. Each adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares issuable will be rounded to the nearest whole share and each adjustment of the Exercise Price will be calculated to the nearest cent. Any adjustment under this Section will become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective, or as of the record date of such dividend.
5.3    Anti-Dilution Protection. If any shares of the same class as the Warrant Shares are entitled, under the Company’s constituent documents or any contract to which the Company is a party, to an adjustment in the event of dilutive issuances of equity, then the Warrant Shares will be entitled to the same adjustment.
5.4    Certificate as to Adjustments. If any adjustment is required to be made in the Exercise Price or number and type of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company will promptly give written notice to the Holder in the form of a certificate signed by an officer of the Company, setting forth the adjustment in reasonable detail.
5.5     Legal Restrictions. In the event any applicable law or regulatory decision restricts the Holder from fully exercising this Warrant in accordance with its terms, or would require the Holder, the Company, or any of their respective affiliates to modify its business in order to do so, the Company and the Holder will modify this Warrant to the extent necessary and permitted by applicable law to provide the Holder an equitable and legally permissible substitute to ensure that the Holder is able to receive the full benefits to which it is entitled under the terms hereof in a manner that complies with applicable law.
