RFMD EMPLOYEE FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Question	Answer
What will happen to contractors and temps as a result of the merger?	Most positions in the combined company are not expected to change in the near-term. Each department will assess its on-going needs for temps and contractors and make individual decisions based on its particular business needs and budgets over time.
Do insider trading restrictions for RFMD insiders apply to trading TriQuint stock prior to the closing of the merger?	Trading in a company stock is only permitted when the person does not have material non-public information about that company. Given the personal liability associated with insider trading laws, the safest approach is to avoid trading TriQuint’s stock until closing of the merger.
Does RFMD still plan to relocate some employees to new operations under construction in Dezhou, China?	Yes, RFMD still plans to relocate some employees from its Beijing operations to its new operation in Dezhou. The construction on the Dezhou packaging/assembly operation is well underway, with initial production planned in the second quarter of calendar year 2015.
Are the plans for RFMD Dezhou and RFMD Beijing in China affected by the merger?	No. Construction of the operation in Dezhou is well underway and RFMD still plans to use both of its China operations (Dezhou and Beijing) as originally intended. While RFMD Beijing will continue to focus on expanding its advanced technology hybrid and flip chip modules as well as MicroShield products, RFMD Dezhou will focus on lean manufacturing of wire bond modules and die processing services for flip chip and wafer level chip scale packaging technologies.
Will the results of the OHI survey be available to employees?	Ralph Quinsey and Bob Bruggeworth sent out a communication to all employees on high-level findings from the OHI survey on Thursday, June 19th. More details on survey results for both companies will be communicated as part of The Compass newsletter, Part 3, scheduled to be released in mid-July.
Are you considering using either TriQuint or RFMD as the name for the new company?	At this time, we are not considering use of the TriQuint or RFMD names.
