The Reporting Persons purchased the Shares based on the Reporting Persons’ belief that the Shares, when purchased, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity. Depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, and the availability of Shares at prices that would make the purchase or sale of Shares desirable, the Reporting Persons may endeavor to increase or decrease their position in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase or sale of Shares on the open market or in private transactions or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may deem advisable.
The Reporting Persons have been following the Issuer for years as part of their coverage of the semiconductor industry, and have been noting the growing disparity between the Issuer’s margins, growth, and stock price performance compared to its peer group. The Reporting Persons’ interest in the Issuer is solely based on their view that tremendous value can be created through operational improvements or other strategic alternatives.
Peter A. Feld, a principal of Starboard Value LP, is a director of Marvell Technology Group Ltd. (“Marvell”), which is a competitor in certain business lines of the Issuer. In the past, Marvell has expressed an interest in discussing with the Issuer a potential strategic transaction on a negotiated friendly basis. The Issuer has declined to enter into any such discussions. To the knowledge of the Reporting Persons there are no current discussions regarding a strategic transaction between Marvell and the Issuer and Mr. Feld, while continuing to serve as a director of Marvell, has agreed that he would recuse himself from participation in any discussions at Marvell regarding any potential interest in the Issuer.
