Inphi Coporation
0.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2021
CUSIP NO. 45772F AC1
May 3, 2021
Dear Holder:
Our records indicate that you are a Holder (as defined in the hereinafter defined Indenture) of 0.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 (the
“Notes”) of Inphi Corporation (“Inphi” or the “Company”). Inphi has advised us of the consummation on April 20, 2021 of the previously announced acquisition of Inphi by Marvell Technology Group Ltd.
(“Marvell”) pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”), dated October 29, 2020, by and among Marvell, Marvell Technology, Inc. (“MTI”), Maui Acquisition Company Ltd, a
Bermuda exempted company and a wholly owned subsidiary of MTI (“Bermuda Merger Sub”), Indigo Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of MTI (“Delaware Merger Sub”), and Inphi. Effective as of 4:01
p.m. Eastern Time on April 20, 2021 (such date, the “Merger Effective Date” and such time, the “Bermuda Merger Effective Time”), Bermuda Merger Sub merged with and into Marvell (the “Bermuda Merger”), with Marvell
continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of MTI. Effective as of 4:02 p.m. Eastern Time on the Merger Effective Date (the “Delaware Merger Effective Time”), Delaware Merger Sub merged with and into Inphi (the “Delaware Merger”
and, together with the Bermuda Merger, the “Mergers”), with Inphi continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of MTI. At the Delaware Merger Effective Time, each share of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of Inphi (each, an “Inphi
Share”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Delaware Merger Effective Time (other than (i) Inphi Shares held by Inphi, Marvell, MTI, Delaware Merger Sub or any other subsidiary of Marvell or Inphi and (ii) Inphi Shares
with respect to which appraisal rights are properly exercised and not withdrawn under Delaware law) was converted into the right to receive 2.323 shares of common stock, $0.002 par value per share, of MTI (each, an “MTI Share”) and $66.00
in cash, without interest, plus cash in lieu of any fractional MTI Shares (the “Merger Consideration”).
In accordance with
Section 15.02(c) of the Indenture, dated as of September 12, 2016 (the “Original Indenture”), by and between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”), as amended by the First Supplemental
Indenture, dated as of April 20, 2021, among the Company, MTI and the Trustee (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Original Indenture, the “Indenture”), notice is hereby given that the Delaware Merger
constituted a Fundamental Change (as defined in the Indenture). Pursuant to Section 15.02 of the Indenture, Holders of the Notes, therefore, have the right to require all or a portion of their Notes to be repurchased at a purchase price (the
“Repurchase Price”) equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of their Notes to be repurchased plus interest accrued but unpaid to, but excluding, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (as defined below).
As previously announced, under the terms of the Indenture, the Delaware Merger also constitutes a Make-Whole Fundamental Change whereby
Holders of the Notes have the right (the “Conversion Right”) to convert their notes in whole or in part (in a principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) into the Merger Consideration and, during the period from the
Delaware Merger Effective Time up to the close of business on June 1, 2021 (the “Make-Whole Convertibility Period”), at an increased conversion rate of 0.0014 shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. The Indenture provides that each
Note is convertible into cash and MTI Shares that a Holder of one Inphi Share would have received in the Delaware Merger, multiplied by the applicable conversion rate. Accordingly, during the Make-Whole Convertibility Period, each Note is
convertible into $1,171.65 in cash and 41.2384 MTI Shares, with cash paid in lieu of any fractional share.
The offer to repurchase the
Notes (the “Repurchase Offer”) will commence on May 4, 2021 and will expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of the day on June 1, 2021 (the “Expiration Date”). Holders may tender their Notes through
the transmittal procedures of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) on or after the commencement of the Repurchase Offer, but no later than June 1, 2021. Payment of the Repurchase Price for Notes validly tendered and not validly
withdrawn shall be made on Wednesday June 2, 2021 (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Date”).
If Holders do not tender
their Notes pursuant to the Repurchase Offer, such Holders will retain the Conversion Right associated with their Notes, which Conversion Right expires at the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day (as such term as defined in the
Indenture) immediately preceding the maturity date of the Notes. However, if a Holder fails to exercise its Conversion Right during the Make-Whole Convertibility Period, such Holder will no longer be entitled to receive the increased conversion rate
resulting from the Delaware Merger constituting a Make-Whole Fundamental Change. If Holders validly tender all or part of their Notes pursuant to the Repurchase Offer, they may not surrender such Notes for conversion unless such Holder(s) validly
withdraw their Notes on or prior to 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on the Expiration Date. If Holders validly tender and do not validly withdraw their Notes prior to the Expiration Date, such Holders will no longer have conversion rights,
unless the Company fails to purchase and pay for the Notes tendered pursuant to the Repurchase Offer.
