RECOMMENDATION BY THE DEBTORS

The Board of Directors of Wolfspeed, Inc. and the sole member of Wolfspeed Texas LLC (as of the date hereof) have approved the transactions contemplated by the Solicitation and the Plan and recommend that all creditors whose votes are being solicited submit ballots to accept the Plan. Holders of more than 97% of Senior Secured Notes Claims, more than 67% of Convertible Notes Claims, and 100% of Renesas Claims (each as defined herein) entitled to vote on the Plan have already agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of the Restructuring Support Agreement, to vote in favor of the Plan.

HOLDERS OF CLAIMS OR INTERESTS SHOULD NOT CONSTRUE THE CONTENTS OF THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT (THE “DISCLOSURE STATEMENT”) AS PROVIDING ANY LEGAL, BUSINESS, FINANCIAL, OR TAX ADVICE AND SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR OWN ADVISORS BEFORE CASTING A VOTE WITH RESPECT TO THE PLAN.

ALTHOUGH SOLICITATION IS COMMENCED FOR CERTAIN CREDITORS BEFORE THE FILING OF THE CHAPTER 11 CASES (AS DEFINED BELOW), THE VOTING DEADLINE (AS DEFINED BELOW) FOR ALL HOLDERS OF CLAIMS ENTITLED TO VOTE ON THE PLAN WILL BE POSTPETITION.

BECAUSE THE CHAPTER 11 CASES HAVE NOT YET BEEN COMMENCED, THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT HAS NOT, AS OF THE DATE HEREOF, BEEN APPROVED BY THE BANKRUPTCY COURT AS CONTAINING “ADEQUATE INFORMATION” WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 1125(A) OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE. FOLLOWING THE COMMENCEMENT OF THE CHAPTER 11 CASES, THE DEBTORS EXPECT TO PROMPTLY SEEK ORDERS OF THE BANKRUPTCY COURT APPROVING THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT AS CONTAINING “ADEQUATE INFORMATION,” APPROVING THE SOLICITATION OF VOTES AS BEING IN COMPLIANCE WITH SECTIONS 1125 AND 1126(B) OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE, AND CONFIRMING THE PLAN. THE INFORMATION IN THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND SUBJECT TO THE RESTRUCTURING SUPPORT AGREEMENT AND RELATED TERM SHEETS. THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT IS NOT AN OFFER TO SELL ANY SECURITIES AND IS NOT SOLICITING AN OFFER TO BUY ANY SECURITIES. THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT IS INCLUDED FOR THE PURPOSE OF SOLICITING ACCEPTANCES OF THE PLAN AND MAY NOT BE RELIED UPON FOR ANY PURPOSE OTHER THAN TO DETERMINE HOW TO VOTE

ON THE PLAN.

AS TO HOLDERS OF SENIOR SECURED NOTES CLAIMS, CONVERTIBLE NOTES CLAIMS, AND RENESAS CLAIMS (EACH AS DEFINED BELOW), SOLICITATION MATERIALS ARE BEING DISTRIBUTED PRIOR TO THE PETITION DATE (AS DEFINED BELOW). HOWEVER, SUCH HOLDERS SHOULD ONLY VOTE PRIOR TO THE ENTRY OF THE SOLICITATION PROCEDURES ORDER IF THEY CAN CERTIFY THAT THEY ARE (I) LOCATED INSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES AND ARE (A) “QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYERS” (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT (AS DEFINED BELOW)) OR (B) “ACCREDITED INVESTORS” (AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) OF REGULATION D UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT), OR (II) LOCATED OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES AND ARE NOT “U.S. PERSONS” (AS DEFINED IN RULE 902 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) (COLLECTIVELY, THE “ELIGIBLE HOLDERS”).

NON-ELIGIBLE HOLDERS WILL BE ENTITLED TO VOTE FOLLOWING THE ENTRY OF THE SOLICITATION PROCEDURES ORDER BY THE BANKRUPTCY COURT. THE DEBTORS WILL PROMPTLY NOTIFY THE HOLDERS OF SENIOR SECURED NOTES CLAIMS, CONVERTIBLE NOTES CLAIMS, AND RENESAS CLAIMS OF SUCH APPROVAL. NON-ELIGIBLE HOLDERS OF SENIOR SECURED NOTES CLAIMS, CONVERTIBLE NOTES CLAIMS, AND RENESAS CLAIMS WILL BE ENTITLED TO VOTE ON THE PLAN AND RETURN THEIR APPLICABLE BALLOTS AT THAT TIME.

ALL HOLDERS OF CLAIMS AND INTERESTS ARE ADVISED AND ENCOURAGED TO READ THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT AND THE PLAN IN THEIR ENTIRETY BEFORE VOTING TO ACCEPT OR REJECT THE PLAN. IN PARTICULAR, ALL HOLDERS OF CLAIMS AND INTERESTS SHOULD CAREFULLY READ AND CONSIDER THE RISK FACTORS SET FORTH IN ARTICLE IX OF THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT – “CERTAIN RISK FACTORS TO BE CONSIDERED” – BEFORE VOTING TO ACCEPT OR REJECT THE PLAN. THE PLAN SUMMARY AND STATEMENTS MADE IN THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT ARE QUALIFIED IN THEIR ENTIRETY BY REFERENCE TO THE PLAN ITSELF AND ANY EXHIBITS ATTACHED TO THE PLAN AND THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT. IN THE EVENT OF ANY CONFLICT BETWEEN ANY DESCRIPTIONS SET FORTH IN THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT AND THE TERMS OF THE PLAN, THE TERMS OF THE PLAN SHALL GOVERN.

UPON CONFIRMATION OF THE PLAN, THE SECURITIES DESCRIBED IN THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT WILL BE OFFERED AND SOLD WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, TOGETHER WITH THE RULES AND REGULATIONS PROMULGATED THEREUNDER (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR SIMILAR U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, OR LOCAL LAWS IN RELIANCE ON THE EXEMPTION SET FORTH IN SECTION 1145(A) OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE AND/OR ANOTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES. THE ABILITY TO OFFER AND SELL SECURITIES WITHOUT REGISTRATION IN RELIANCE ON SECTION 1145(A) OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE AND/OR APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS, WHETHER FEDERAL, STATE, OR TERRITORIAL, SHALL NOT BE A CONDITION TO THE OCCURRENCE OF THE EFFECTIVE DATE. WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES OFFERED AND SOLD PURSUANT TO THE EXEMPTION UNDER SECTION 1145(A) OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE, SUCH SECURITIES GENERALLY MAY BE RESOLD WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS, UNLESS THE HOLDER IS AN “UNDERWRITER” WITH RESPECT TO SUCH SECURITIES, AS THAT TERM IS DEFINED IN SECTION 1145(B) OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE. IN ADDITION, SUCH SECURITIES GENERALLY MAY BE RESOLD WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER STATE SECURITIES LAWS PURSUANT TO VARIOUS EXEMPTIONS PROVIDED BY THE RESPECTIVE LAWS OF THE SEVERAL STATES.

NO SECURITIES TO BE ISSUED PURSUANT TO THE PLAN HAVE BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE “SEC”) OR BY ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION OR SIMILAR PUBLIC, GOVERNMENTAL, OR REGULATORY AUTHORITY. THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT HAS NOT BEEN FILED FOR APPROVAL WITH THE SEC OR ANY STATE AUTHORITY AND NEITHER THE SEC NOR ANY STATE AUTHORITY HAS PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT OR UPON THE MERITS OF THE PLAN. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE IN THE UNITED STATES. NEITHER THE SOLICITATION OF VOTES ON THE PLAN NOR THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT CONSTITUTES AN OFFER TO SELL OR THE SOLICITATION OF AN OFFER TO BUY SECURITIES IN ANY STATE OR JURISDICTION IN WHICH SUCH OFFER OR SOLICITATION IS NOT AUTHORIZED.

THE DEBTORS BELIEVE THAT THE SOLICITATION OF VOTES ON THE PLAN MADE BY THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT ARE EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND RELATED STATE STATUTES PURSUANT TO SECTION 4(A)(2) OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND/OR RULE 506 OF REGULATION D PROMULGATED THEREUNDER, AND PURSUANT TO REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, AS APPLICABLE.

ALL SECURITIES DESCRIBED HEREIN ARE EXPECTED TO BE ISSUED WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS (“BLUE SKY LAWS”).

CERTAIN STATEMENTS CONTAINED IN THE DISCLOSURE STATEMENT, INCLUDING STATEMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE, PROJECTED FINANCIAL INFORMATION, AND OTHER FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS, ARE SUBJECT TO A NUMBER OF ASSUMPTIONS, RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES, MANY OF WHICH ARE BEYOND THE CONTROL OF THE DEBTORS, INCLUDING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PLAN.

PARTIES ARE CAUTIONED THAT THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS SPEAK AS OF THE DATE MADE, ARE BASED ON THE DEBTORS’ CURRENT BELIEFS, INTENTIONS AND EXPECTATIONS, AND ARE NOT GUARANTEES OF FUTURE PERFORMANCE. ACTUAL RESULTS OR DEVELOPMENTS MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THE EXPECTATIONS EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED IN THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. THE DEBTORS ARE UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO (AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ANY OBLIGATION TO) UPDATE OR ALTER ANY FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS WHETHER AS A RESULT OF NEW INFORMATION, FUTURE EVENTS, OR OTHERWISE, UNLESS INSTRUCTED

TO DO SO BY THE BANKRUPTCY COURT OR REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

INTRODUCTION

Overview of Restructuring Transactions

Wolfspeed, Inc. (“Wolfspeed”) and Wolfspeed Texas LLC (“Wolfspeed Texas” and with Wolfspeed, the “Debtors” and, together with certain of their non-debtor affiliates, the “Company”) submit this Disclosure Statement in connection with the solicitation of votes (the “Solicitation”) on the Joint Prepackaged Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Wolfspeed, Inc. and its Debtor Affiliate, dated June 27, 2025, a copy of which is annexed to this Disclosure Statement as Exhibit A (the “Plan”).²

With the approval of the board of directors of Wolfspeed (the “Board”) and the sole member of Wolfspeed Texas, the Debtors intend to commence voluntary petitions for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”) on June 30, 2025 (the “Petition Date”), which is during the Solicitation period. The Debtors intend to seek confirmation of the Plan consistent with the timeline set forth herein and, to the extent necessary, will file a motion seeking to shorten applicable notice periods.

During the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors intend to operate their businesses in the ordinary course and will seek authorization from the Bankruptcy Court to make payment in full on a timely basis to, among others, employees, trade creditors, taxing authorities, customers, and insurance providers of amounts due prior to and during the Chapter 11 Cases.

The Debtors commenced Solicitation to implement a comprehensive financial restructuring to significantly deleverage the Company’s balance sheet to ensure the long-term viability of the Company’s enterprise. As a result of extensive arm’s-length negotiations with their key constituents, the Debtors entered into a restructuring support agreement (including any amendments, modifications and joinders thereto, the “Restructuring Support Agreement”), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B (attachments omitted), with the Consenting Creditors (as defined below) party thereto, who hold, in the aggregate (i) more than 97% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Senior Secured Notes; (ii) more than 67% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount under the Convertible Notes; and (iii) 100% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of loans under the Renesas CRD (as defined herein and collectively, the “Consenting Creditors”). The Debtors have worked closely and in coordination with their key stakeholders, including the Consenting Creditors.

Indeed, the Consenting Creditors have negotiated in good faith and played a pivotal role in formulating the proposed restructuring described in this Disclosure Statement.

Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Disclosure Statement will have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Plan. The summary of the Plan provided herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan. In the case of any inconsistency between this Disclosure Statement and the Plan, the Plan will govern.

Given the overwhelming support for the Debtors’ restructuring by their major stakeholders, in the weeks leading up to the solicitation period the Debtors elected to pursue a restructuring that leaves its trade creditors unimpaired to maximize value for their stakeholders by minimizing both the costs of restructuring and the impact on the Debtors’ businesses. Among other things, the Debtors intend to file motions to waive the requirement to file schedules of assets and liabilities and statements of financial affairs, which will provide them with significant cost savings. In addition, implementing the restructuring contemplated by the Plan in an expedited manner will obviate the need for an unsecured creditors’ committee and the expenses associated therewith that would otherwise be borne by the Debtors’ estates. The Debtors believe that the Plan represents the most efficient route to consummate their restructuring and best positions the Debtors, their Estates, their trade partners, and other stakeholders going forward.

Pursuant to the Restructuring Support Agreement, the parties agreed to support a deleveraging transaction to restructure the Company’s balance sheet, to be effectuated in chapter 11 through the Plan (the “Restructuring”). The Restructuring will be effectuated pursuant to the Plan, which provides for, among other things, (a) a comprehensive restructuring of the Debtors’ prepetition obligations, (b) maximization of creditor recoveries, (c) an equitable distribution to certain stakeholders, and (d) continued manufacturing of high-quality silicon carbide technology and semiconductor production. Specifically, the Restructuring will include, among other things, the following agreements:

•

On the Effective Date, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, will cause to be consummated a rights offering open to all Holders of Convertible Notes Claims, pursuant to section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering”), in accordance with the Plan and the New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering Documents and subject to the New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering Procedures. The New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering shall be conducted prior to the Effective Date, and the New 2L Convertible Notes shall be issued pro rata to the participants in the New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering, subject to, for the avoidance of doubt, the Initial Backstop Parties’ Premium and the Backstop Holdback Allocation.

•

Participants in the New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering will have the right to purchase New 2L Convertible Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to $301.125 million (the “New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering Amount”) for an aggregate purchase price equal to 91.3242% of the principal amount of the New 2L Convertible Notes being purchased; provided, that (a) New 2L Convertible Notes in an amount equal to 20% of the New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering Amount shall be reserved exclusively for the Initial Backstop Parties’ Premium and (b) New 2L Convertible Notes in an amount equal to 20% of the New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering Amount shall be reserved exclusively for the Backstop Holdback Allocation.

A summary of the key terms of the restructuring transactions as contemplated by the Plan and the Restructuring Support Agreement is as follows:

•

Holders of an Allowed Other Secured Claim and an Allowed Other Priority Claim will be unimpaired under the Plan.

•

Holders of an Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claim shall receive, in full and final satisfaction of such Claim in accordance with the Restructuring Transactions, their Pro Rata Share of (i) the New Senior Secured Notes; and (ii) the Effective Date Cash Payment; provided, that Holders of Commitment Fee Claims shall receive, in full and final satisfactions, their Pro Rata Share of the Commitment Fee Amount; provided, subject to the Plan Supplement Documents, that $5,000,000 of such Commitment Fee Amount shall be held in escrow as part of the Contingent Additional Consideration, and released to such Holders of Allowed Commitment Fee Claims entitled thereto no later than five (5) Business Days after the Debtors and Renesas, as applicable, obtain Regulatory Approvals prior to a Regulatory Trigger Deadline.

•

Holders of an Allowed Convertible Notes Claim shall receive, in full and final satisfaction of such Claim in accordance with the Restructuring Transactions, their Pro Rata Share of (i) the New 2L Convertible Notes Rights (subject to the Initial Backstop Parties’ Premium and the Backstop Holdback Allocation); (ii) the New 2L Takeback Notes; and (iii) 56.3% of the New Common Stock (subject to dilution from, where applicable, the conversion of the New 2L Convertible Notes (including those issued on account of the Backstop Premium), the conversion of the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes, the Incentive Plans, and the exercise of the Renesas Warrants).

•

Renesas shall receive, in full and final satisfaction of Allowed Renesas Claims in accordance with the Restructuring Transactions, (i) the Base Consideration; (ii) if applicable, and without duplication with clause (i) above, the Base Consideration Proceeds; and (iii) if the Regulatory Trigger Deadline occurs, the Contingent Additional Consideration.

•

Holders of an Allowed General Unsecured Claim will be unimpaired under the Plan.

•

Holders of an Allowed Intercompany Claim and Allowed Intercompany Interest will be unimpaired and presumed to accept / impaired and deemed to reject the Plan.

•

Holders of an Allowed 510(b) Claim will be unimpaired under the Plan.

•

Holders of Existing Equity Interests shall receive, in full and final satisfaction of such Claim in accordance with the Restructuring Transactions, their Pro Rata Share of the Equity Recovery (subject to dilution from the conversion of the New 2L Convertible Notes (including those issued on account of the Backstop Premium), the conversion of the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes, Incentive Plans, and the exercise of the Renesas Warrants); provided, that, if the Distribution Event occurs, the Equity Recovery shall be reduced from 5.0% to 3.0% of New Common Stock.

Cash on the balance sheet of the Debtors as reorganized following the Effective Date (the “Reorganized Debtors”) shall be used to (i) pay the Allowed Administrative Claims, in full in accordance with section 2.1 of the Plan, (ii) the Allowed Priority Tax Claims, in full in accordance with section 2.2 of the Plan, (iii) pay the Restructuring Expenses, in full in accordance with section 2.3 of the Plan, (iv) the Professional Fee Claims, in full in accordance with section 2.4 of the Plan, (v) fund other distributions, costs, and expenses contemplated by the Plan (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Effective Date Cash Payment), and (vi) fund general working capital and for general corporate purposes of the Reorganized Debtors.

There are three creditor constituencies whose votes for acceptance of the Plan are being solicited: (i) holders of Senior Secured Notes Claims, (ii) holders of Convertible Notes Claims, and (iii) holders of Renesas Claims. An overview of the voting procedures and related requirements are detailed below in Article X.

The proposed Restructuring will leave the Company’s businesses intact and significantly deleverage the Debtors’ capital structure, as its total funded indebtedness (including accrued but unpaid interest) will be reduced from approximately $6,749 million to approximately $2,118 million inclusive of principal and accrued interest—an approximately 70% debt reduction relative to the anticipated Petition Date. This deleveraging will enhance the Company’s long-term growth prospects and competitive position and allow the Debtors to emerge from the Chapter 11 Cases as a stronger, reorganized group of entities better able to invest in the business, drive innovation and technological advancement, deliver value to customers, and withstand a challenging market environment.

This Disclosure Statement provides holders of Claims and Interests entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan with adequate information about (i) the Debtors’ business and certain historical events, (ii) the Chapter 11 Cases, (iii) the Plan, (iv) the rights of holders of Claims and Interests under the Plan, and (v) other information necessary to enable each holder of a Claim and Interest entitled to vote on the Plan to make an informed judgment as to whether to vote to accept or reject the Plan. This Disclosure Statement also assists the Bankruptcy Court in determining whether the Plan complies with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and should be confirmed.

Section I.B hereof contains a summary of the treatment of various creditor constituencies under the Plan.

Summary of Plan Classification and Treatment of Claims

WHO IS ENTITLED TO VOTE: Under the Bankruptcy Code, only “impaired” holders of Claims or Interests are entitled to vote on the Plan (unless, for reasons discussed in more detail below such holders are deemed to reject the Plan pursuant to section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code). Under section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code, a class of Claims or Interests is deemed to be “impaired” under the Plan unless: (i) the Plan leaves unaltered the legal, equitable, and contractual rights to which such claim or interest entitles the holder thereof or (ii) notwithstanding any legal right to an accelerated payment of such claim or interest, the Plan cures all existing defaults (other than defaults resulting from the occurrence of events of bankruptcy) and reinstates the maturity of such claim or interest as it existed before the default.

Holders of Claims in the following Classes are being solicited under, and are entitled to vote on, the Plan:

•

Class 3 — Senior Secured Notes Claims;

•

Class 4 — Convertible Notes Claims; and

•

Class 5 — Renesas Claims.

The following table summarizes: (i) the treatment of Claims and Interests under the Plan; (ii) which Classes are impaired by the Plan; (iii) which Classes are entitled to vote on the Plan; and (iv) the estimated recoveries for holders of Claims and Interests (prior to dilution from the Incentive Plans). The table is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan. A detailed discussion of the analysis underlying the estimated recoveries, including the assumptions underlying such analysis, is set forth in the valuation analysis in Exhibit F – Valuation Analysis.

OVERVIEW OF THE DEBTORS’ BUSINESS OPERATIONS

The Debtors, together with certain of their non-debtor affiliates, are leading developers and manufacturers of wide-bandgap semiconductors, focused on silicon carbide (“SiC”) and gallium nitride (“GaN”) materials. The Company’s products have a broad range of applications, including electric vehicles, motor drives, power supplies, military communications, radar, satellite, and telecommunications.

History and Formation

Founded in 1987 as Cree Research Inc., Wolfspeed initially concentrated on producing silicon carbide for commercial use in semiconductors and lighting. Wolfspeed became publicly traded in 1993 through an initial public offering. Over the years, the Company has expanded by acquiring several businesses, including Ruud Lighting in 2011 and certain assets from Infineon Technologies

AG in 2018. In 2019, the Company sold its lighting products division, followed by the sale of its LED business (as defined below) in 2021. In October 2021, the Company rebranded itself as Wolfspeed, Inc. In 2023, the Company sold its radio frequency business to MACOM Technology Solutions Holdings, Inc.

Throughout its history, the Company has been at the forefront of innovating silicon carbide applications. In 1989, the Company introduced the first blue light-emitting diode (“LED”), which enabled the development of large, full-color video screens and billboards. By 1991, the Company had launched the first commercial SiC wafer.

Today, Wolfspeed’s primary focus is on the production of wide-bandgap semiconductors. The Company’s headquarters are located in Durham, North Carolina. Most of the Company’s products are manufactured at its facilities in (i) Durham, North Carolina, (ii) Siler City, North Carolina (the “Siler City Facility”), (iii) Marcy, New York (the “Mohawk Valley Fab”), and (iv) Fayetteville, Arkansas.

Current Business Operations

Products & Services

As stated above, the Company is an innovator of wide-bandgap semiconductors. This class of semiconductors, which includes SiC and gallium nitride semiconductors, are considered essential for the future of power electronics used in electric vehicles, the electrical grid, military applications, and upcoming compact portable power applications. As described in greater detail below, the Company operates through two primary business segments: (a) Materials and (b) Power Devices. The key products and services under each segment are set forth in the graphic below and described in greater detail herein:

LOGO

Materials

The Company’s Materials segment provides SiC bare wafers, epitaxial wafers, and GaN epitaxial layers on silicon carbide wafers. Customers use these materials to produce products for radio- frequency, power, and other applications. In particular, corporate, government, and university customers purchase SiC and GaN materials for research and development focused on radio- frequency and power devices.

ii.

Power Devices

The Power Devices segment includes SiC Schottky diodes, metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors, and power modules. These products enhance efficiency and switching speeds, which in turn reduce the size and weight of systems compared to other silicon power devices. Customers and distributors purchase these products for applications in electric vehicles, including charging infrastructure, server power supplies, solar inverters, uninterruptible power supplies, industrial power supplies, and other applications.

Revenue Breakdown

The Company’s revenues streams are well diversified across its Materials and Power Devices segments, as shown below:

LOGO

The Company benefits from a diverse array of revenue streams. The balance of the Company’s revenues is comprised primarily of (a) customer commitments to purchase both SiC materials and devices directly from the Company for end-use and (b) sales of SiC solutions to partners who then distribute to end-users. Despite the current internal and external challenges facing the business, the Company’s revenues through the first half of 2025 have remained strong.

III.

CORPORATE AND CAPITAL STRUCTURE

Corporate Structure

The Debtors consist of Wolfspeed and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Wolfspeed Texas LLC, totaling two entities formed under the laws of North Carolina and Texas, respectively. Wolfspeed Texas is managed by its sole member, Wolfspeed. In addition, Wolfspeed is the ultimate parent company of 15 other wholly-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries that are not Debtors in the Chapter 11 Cases. A chart illustrating the Company’s organizational structure as of the anticipated Petition Date is attached hereto as Exhibit C.

Wolfspeed is the main operating entity for the entire organization. In that capacity, it enters into lease, vendor, and other agreements on behalf of its direct and indirect subsidiaries. Wolfspeed, Inc. and Wolfspeed Texas are the sole obligors of all funded indebtedness for the entire enterprise.

Corporate Governance

Wolfspeed is governed by its board of directors. On December 5, 2024, Wolfspeed held its annual meeting of shareholders, during which its Board was elected. On March 27, 2025, the Board appointed Robert Feurle as Wolfspeed’s Chief Executive Officer and as a member of the Board, effective as of May 1, 2025. On May 8, 2025, the Board elected Mark Jensen and Paul V. Walsh as members and appointed both to the Audit Committee.

As of the anticipated Petition Date, the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest under the Renesas Loans is approximately $2,127 million.

vi.

Other Non-Funded Debtor Obligations

Trade Claims

In the ordinary course of business, the Debtors utilize certain vendors and service providers who supply goods and services (the “Trade Creditors”). The Trade Creditors are a vital part of the Company’s ongoing business. Any interruption in the flow of goods and services from such creditors would have an immediate and adverse impact on the Debtors’ ability to continue operating. As discussed in greater detail in the all-trade motion, certain trade claims (a) are entitled to statutory priority, such as under section 503(b)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code, or (b) may give rise to shippers’ liens against the Debtors’ property if unpaid. As of the anticipated Petition Date, the Company estimates that the aggregate amount of trade claims outstanding is approximately $259 million.

Other General Unsecured Claims

As of the anticipated Petition Date, the Company anticipates approximately $45 million on account of claims against the Debtors (other than intercompany claims and claims of Trade Creditors described herein) that are neither secured by collateral nor entitled to priority under the Bankruptcy Code or any order of the Court.

IV.

KEY EVENTS LEADING TO

COMMENCEMENT OF CHAPTER 11 CASES

Challenges Facing Debtors’ Business

Although the Company remains operationally stable, the Debtors are encountering challenges due to the impending maturity of the 2026 Convertible Notes and uncertainty regarding the receipt of CHIPS Act funding under the PMT (as defined below). Despite recent efforts to address these challenges, the Company ultimately determined that initiating a comprehensive deleveraging transaction through the Chapter 11 Cases was necessary to improve its balance sheet and, in turn, emerge a more financially stable company.

Capacity Expansion Initiatives

In recent years, Wolfspeed has made substantial investments to expand its production capacity, aiming to capitalize on the growing demand for SiC technology. That demand is driven by sectors such as electric vehicles, renewable energy and storage, and artificial intelligence data centers. SiC provides significant advantages over traditional silicon in high-power applications, including enhanced efficiency, smaller size, and reduced weight. Wolfspeed is a leader at the forefront of the power-electronics industry’s shift from silicon to SiC-based semiconductors.

Mohawk Valley Fab. In September 2019, Wolfspeed announced a $1 billion investment to construct the Mohawk Valley Fab, which is the world’s first purpose-built, fully automated 200mm SiC fabrication facility. The construction was partially funded by a $500 million grant from New York State. The Mohawk Valley Fab commenced operations in April 2022, significantly increasing Wolfspeed’s production capacity.

German Facility. In February 2023, Wolfspeed announced that it would build its first European factory in Germany (the “German Facility”). The construction was to be subsidized by the European Union as part of an important project of common European interest for Microelectronics and Communication Technologies. However, in June 2024, Wolfspeed announced a delay in the construction of its $3 billion semiconductor plant in Germany to mid-2025. In October 2024, Wolfspeed announced that the project was placed on an indefinite hold.

Siler City Facility. In 2022, Wolfspeed announced the construction of the Siler City Facility. The Siler City Facility is the world’s largest 200mm SiC materials factory and will result in a more than ten-fold increase in Wolfspeed’s materials production capacity. In June 2024, the Siler City Facility received its final certificate of occupancy and began operations.

The growth of Wolfspeed’s manufacturing capacity through these facility expansion initiatives has required substantial investment of capital. The Company has financed these initiatives through the issuance of debt, putting significant pressure on the Debtors’ balance sheet.

ii.

CHIPS Act Funding

The importance of bolstering domestic production of SiC has been recognized by multiple federal agencies. The Department of Energy identified SiC as one of 17 “critical materials” with a high risk of supply disruption that are integral to clean energy technologies. Similarly, the Department of Commerce recognizes silicon carbide semiconductors as important to national security. Accordingly, Congress enacted the CHIPS and Science Act (“CHIPS Act”) in August 2022, authorizing roughly $280 billion in new funding to advance domestic semiconductor research and manufacturing.

On October 11, 2024, Wolfspeed and the U.S. Department of Commerce signed a non-binding preliminary memorandum of terms (“PMT”) to provide the Company with up to $750 million in direct funding. Under the CHIPS Act, the Company also expected to receive approximately $1 billion of section 48D tax refunds. In addition, a consortium of the Senior Secured Noteholders committed to provide the Company an additional $750 million of new financing in the form of additional Senior Secured Notes, giving the Company access to an aggregate of $2.5 billion in financing to support the expansion of SiC manufacturing in the United States.

To qualify for CHIPS Act funding under the PMT, Wolfspeed was required to satisfy certain conditions, including: (i) refinancing or restructuring the $575 million of 2026 Convertible Notes, (ii) raising up to $300 million of new equity, and (iii) completing the buildout of a new plant in Siler City, North Carolina. In anticipation of receiving CHIPS Act funding, the Company proactively initiated construction to expand multiple key manufacturing facilities, underscoring its commitment to scaling domestic production capacity and advancing long-term strategic growth.

Since January 2025, there has been ongoing uncertainty surrounding the future of the CHIPS Act and its associated commitments. This uncertainty regarding the amount and timing of funding the Company might receive has complicated Wolfspeed’s ability to forecast its future liquidity. The same is true with respect to the costs the Company will be required to incur to complete the buildout of the Siler City plant, continue the investments in ongoing facility expansion projects, and to satisfy the conditions precedent for CHIPS Act funding pursuant to the PMT.

iii.

Financial Challenges

As of the twelve month period ending March 2025, the Company’s funded debt is approximately $6.5 billion and adjusted EBITDA is negative,⁸ which the Debtors do not believe is sustainable over the long term. The Debtors’ current balance sheet has had a corresponding negative and restrictive impact on the Debtors’ liquidity and growth. The Debtors’ unhedged annual cash interest expense for fiscal year 2026 under the prepetition capital structure would be approximately $400 million at current interest rates. Accordingly, the Debtors intend to file the Chapter 11 Cases to implement a comprehensive financial restructuring that will reduce the Company’s funded debt (including accrued but unpaid interest) by approximately $4.6 billion, reduce run rate cash interest expense by approximately $240 million on an annual basis, and allow it to continue operating on a go-forward basis with a substantially healthier balance sheet and liquidity profile.

Formation of Special Committee and Special Committee Investigation

In May 2025, the Board formed a Special Investigation Committee (the “Special Committee”). The Special Committee was granted broad authority to conduct an investigation into whether the Debtors possess any material and potentially viable direct or derivative claims for relief or causes of action (the “Potential Claims”) and, if so, to determine whether the pursuit of such claims or causes of action is in the best interests of the Company (the “Investigation”). The Special Committee is composed of Mark Jensen and Paul V. Walsh – two directors who are disinterested with respect to the Investigation. Both directors were first appointed to the Board in May 2025.

The Special Committee has engaged and is currently working with outside counsel to identify the Potential Claims and to conduct the Investigation. Upon completion of the Investigation, the Special Committee will provide its determinations, findings, conclusions and recommendations to the Board. The Special Committee will also make its outside counsel available to the Board for questions and further diligence regarding such determinations, findings, conclusions and recommendations.

The Debtor Release with respect to any Released Parties remains subject to the Special Committee’s conclusion of the Investigation.

Prepetition Restructuring Efforts

Recognizing the need to deleverage in light of the foregoing challenges and upcoming maturity of the 2026 Convertible Notes, the Company began the process of evaluating strategic alternatives. In the period leading up to the execution of the Restructuring Support Agreement and the anticipated Petition Date, the Company took numerous steps to rationalize its business, reduce discretionary capital expenditures, and preserve liquidity. In November 2024, the Company undertook several cost-cutting measures, including closing two manufacturing facilities and undertaking a workforce reduction plan.⁹ The Company also sought to raise funds in the public markets to provide additional liquidity and address leverage concerns. In January 2025, the Company undertook an “at the market” equity offering program, under which it sold 27,793,535 shares of its common stock for gross proceeds of approximately $200 million.

⁸	Please refer to Wolfspeed, Inc.’s 10-Q Quarterly Report filed on May 9, 2025 for additional information.

⁹	Since March 2025, the Debtors and their non-Debtor subsidiaries have implemented reductions in force totaling approximately 570 to reduce operating expenses, including approximately 250 implemented in June 2025.

The Company recognized that the aforementioned steps alone were not enough to address its leverage and liquidity concerns. Consequently, in February 2025, the Company engaged JP Morgan (“JPM”) and Perella Weinberg Partners, as investment bankers, and Latham, as counsel, to assist the Company in this process. In April 2025, the Company engaged FTI Consulting as a financial advisor, and in May 2025, the Company engaged both Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP and Epiq (as defined below) as co-counsel and as a voting agent, respectively.

In February 2025, with the oversight of the Finance Committee (which held over 90 formal meetings in the period leading up to the anticipated Petition Date), the Company and its advisors began actively engaging in discussions with its key stakeholders with the goal of significantly deleveraging its balance sheet. As described in further detail below, the Company attempted to address its capital structure through a “public-style” out-of-court restructuring throughout March 2025. Despite good faith, arm’s-length discussions with its key stakeholders prior to the anticipated Petition Date, the Company was unable to garner sufficient support for a comprehensive out-of-court restructuring that would adequately remedy its capital structure challenges.

March 2025 Process

As noted above, to address the upcoming maturity of the 2026 Convertible Notes and deleverage the Company’s balance sheet, the Company pursued an out-of-court, public-markets style exchange transaction (the “March 2025 Process”). In March 2025, the Company commenced outreach to individual holders of Convertible Notes and Renesas. Several individual holders executed confidentiality agreements and began conducting diligence in furtherance of an exchange transaction.

The March 2025 Process did not culminate in a transaction. As a result, the holders that had executed confidentiality agreements in connection with the March 2025 Process were released from their obligations thereunder and all diligence ceased on March 28, 2025.

Also on March 28, 2025, following the Company’s announcement that the March 2025 Process did not result in a transaction, the trading price of Wolfspeed’s common stock fell by approximately 50% to $2.59 per share, leaving the Company with a market capitalization of approximately $400 million. But the Company remained focused on exploring other avenues to achieve the timely and value-maximizing deleveraging of its balance sheet and to address the impending maturity of the 2026 Convertible Notes.

Renewed Process

Immediately after the Company and its key stakeholders learned that the March 2025 Process would not result in a transaction, the Company and its advisors re-engaged with its key stakeholders, including (i) an ad hoc group of Senior Secured Noteholders (the “Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group”), represented by Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP, as legal counsel, and Moelis & Company, as investment banker (the “Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group Advisors”), (ii) an ad hoc group of 2026 Convertible Noteholders (the “Ad Hoc 26s Noteholder Group”),

represented by Paul Hastings LLP, as legal counsel, and Houlihan Lokey, Inc., as investment banker (the “Ad Hoc 26s Noteholder Group Advisors”), (iii) an ad hoc group of 2026 Convertible Noteholders, 2028 Convertible Noteholders, and 2029 Convertible Noteholders (the “Ad Hoc 26/s28s/29s Noteholder Group”), represented by Ropes & Gray LLP, as legal counsel, and Ducera Partners LLC, as investment banker (the “Ad Hoc 26s/28s/29s Noteholder Group Advisors”), and (iv) Renesas Electronics America Inc., a wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary of Renesas Electronics Corporation, represented by Kirkland & Ellis LLP, as legal counsel, PJT Partners LP, as investment banker, and BofA Securities, Inc. as structuring advisor (the “Renesas Advisors”).

On March 30, 2025, the Debtors received initial transaction proposals from the Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group that provided the high-level terms of a comprehensive restructuring of the Company’s balance sheet (the “SSN Framework”). Following several rounds of counterproposals, the SSN Framework formed the basis for further discussions with the Convertible Noteholders and Renesas regarding a potential deleveraging transaction.

Accordingly, in April 2025, the Company sent a proposal consistent with the SSN Framework to the Ad Hoc 26s/28s/29s Noteholder Group Advisors. Over the next several weeks, the Company, the Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group, and the Ad Hoc 26s/28s/29s Noteholder Group engaged in extensive, good-faith negotiations, meeting frequently and exchanging counterproposals regularly.

In late April 2025, the Debtors received a transaction proposal from Renesas (“Renesas Proposal”). After analyzing the Renesas Proposal, and following the guidance of the Finance Committee and their advisors, the Debtors determined that the proposal was not actionable and exchanged counterproposals with Renesas.¹⁰

The pace of the negotiations accelerated in May 2025. Starting on May 22, 2025, the Company advisors and the Ad Hoc 26s/28s/29s Noteholder Group began holding daily calls. In late May 2025, additional holders in the Ad Hoc 26s/28s/29s Noteholder Group executed non-disclosure agreements, and the Company held management presentations for the newly-restricted holders.

Although the parties initially sought to effectuate an out-of-court restructuring, the parties ultimately determined that a consensual in-court transaction to deleverage the Company’s balance sheet was in the best interests of the Debtors, their estates, and all stakeholders and would not materially interrupt the Debtors’ business operations.

Restructuring Support Agreement and Plan

On June 22, 2025, following months of extensive, good faith, arm’s-length negotiations, the Debtors entered into the Restructuring Support Agreement with the Consenting Creditors.¹¹

¹⁰

Separately, the Debtors received competing proposals from the Ad Hoc 26s Noteholder Group. After analyzing the various proposals received from the Ad Hoc 26s Noteholder Group, and following the guidance of the Finance Committee and their advisors, the Debtors ultimately reached the conclusion that the proposals were not actionable.

¹¹	The Restructuring Support Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

Pursuant to the Restructuring Support Agreement, the Consenting Creditors agreed to support the restructuring transaction by, among other things:

•

voting to accept the Plan;

•

agreeing to not opt-out of the releases contemplated by the Plan; and

•

supporting and effectuating the transactions contemplated in the Restructuring Support Agreement.

The terms of the Restructuring are reflected in the Plan. Upon its full implementation, the Plan will effect a significant deleveraging of the Debtors’ capital structure by reducing the Company’s total funded debt (including accrued but unpaid interest) by approximately $4.6 billion.

Upon the Effective Date, the Plan shall constitute an integrated and global, good faith compromise and settlement of all Claims, Interests, and controversies relating to the contractual, legal, and subordination rights that a creditor or an Interest holder may have with respect to any Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest or any distribution to be made on account of such Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest, including pursuant to the transactions set forth in the Restructuring Support Agreement and Plan.

PENDING LITIGATION

In the ordinary course of business, from time to time, the Company is the subject of complaints or litigation from shareholders or other parties or inquiries or investigations from government officials. The Company may also be subject to employee claims based on, among other things, alleged discrimination, harassment or wrongful termination claims.

Securities Class Action Litigation. In November 2024, a putative securities class action was filed in the Northern District of New York against Wolfspeed, Inc. and certain of its senior executives (the “Securities Class Action”). Plaintiffs allege that, between August 2023 and November 2024, Wolfspeed made materially misleading statements regarding the anticipated ramp-up of the Mohawk Valley Fab, including projected utilization rates and revenue expectations. According to the complaint, the Company failed to disclose operational challenges and softening customer demand that, plaintiffs contend, rendered its projections unreliable. Plaintiffs allege that the misrepresentations allegedly led to artificially inflated stock prices, causing investors to suffer losses when the truth emerged. The Court appointed a lead plaintiff and lead counsel in February 2025, and a consolidated amended complaint was filed in May 2025. A motion to transfer venue is currently pending.

Derivative Litigation and Related Demands. In April 2025, a shareholder derivative action was filed in the Middle District of North Carolina against certain current and former directors and officers of Wolfspeed, Inc. (the “Derivative Litigation”). The Derivative Litigation complaint alleges that defendants breached their fiduciary duties by disseminating or allowing the Company to disseminate materially misleading statements regarding the Company’s financial outlook and the operational status of the Mohawk Valley Fab. The complaint alleges that these

misrepresentations led to significant financial harm to the Company, including a decline in stock price and the initiation of a securities class action. Additionally, the complaint asserts claims for insider trading and unjust enrichment, and seeks damages for corporate waste and gross mismanagement. The case remains in its early stages, and no responsive pleadings have been filed.

The Company also has received several demands from individuals purporting to be shareholders, requesting that the Board investigate alleged breaches of fiduciary duty and associated misconduct under North Carolina law, which are substantively similar to the allegations raised in the ongoing Securities Class Action and Derivative Litigation.

Although no assurances can be given, in the opinion of management, none of the pending actions are likely to have a material adverse impact on the Debtors’ financial position or results of operations, either individually or in the aggregate.

Legal proceedings are subject to substantial uncertainties concerning the outcome of material factual and legal issues relating to the litigation. Accordingly, the Debtors cannot currently predict the manner and timing of the resolution of some of these matters and may be unable to estimate a range of possible losses or any minimum loss from such matters.

VI.

ANTICIPATED EVENTS

DURING CHAPTER 11 CASES

Commencement of Chapter 11 Cases

As discussed above, the Debtors intend to commence the Chapter 11 Cases. The filing of the petitions will commence the Chapter 11 Cases, at which time the Debtors will be afforded the benefits and become subject to the limitations of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Debtors intend to continue their operations in the ordinary course during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases. To facilitate the efficient and expeditious implementation of the Plan through the Chapter 11 Cases, and to minimize disruptions to the Debtors’ operations on the Petition Date, the Debtors will seek to have these Chapter 11 Cases assigned to the same bankruptcy judge and administered jointly. Also on the Petition Date, the Debtors will file various motions seeking important and urgent relief from the Bankruptcy Court. Such relief, as further described below, will assist in the administration of these Chapter 11 Cases.

First-Day Motions

On the Petition Date, the Debtors will file multiple motions seeking various forms of relief from the Bankruptcy Court and authorizing the Debtors to maintain their operations in the ordinary course. Such relief is designed to ensure a seamless transition between the Debtors’ prepetition and postpetition business operations, facilitate a smooth reorganization through the Chapter 11 Cases, and minimize any disruptions to the Debtors’ operations. The Debtors will seek the following relief on the Petition Date to maintain their operations in the ordinary course:

•

continue paying employee wages and benefits;

•

continue the use of the Debtors’ cash management system, bank accounts, and business forms;

•

continue insurance programs and the processing of workers’ compensation Claims;

•

pay certain prepetition taxes, fees, and assessments;

•

pay trade claims;

•

continue customer programs;

•

establish procedures for utility companies to request adequate assurance of payment and to prohibit utility companies from altering or discontinuing service;

•

approving notification and hearing procedures related to certain transfers or restrictions of, or declarations of worthlessness with respect to, the Debtors’ common stock, and directing that any purchase, sale, other transfer of, or declaration of worthlessness with respect to the Debtors’ common stock in violation of the procedures shall be null and void ab initio;

•

use cash collateral subject to the terms of the Cash Collateral Order; and

•

approve the New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering and Backstop Agreement.

Procedural Motions

The Company intends to file various motions that are common to chapter 11 proceedings of similar size and complexity as the Chapter 11 Cases, including applications to retain various professionals to assist the Debtors in the Chapter 11 Cases.

Confirmation Hearing

The Company intends to ask the Bankruptcy Court to schedule the Confirmation Hearing to be held on or about September 8, 2025, as may be adjourned without further notice other than an announcement of the adjourned date or dates in open court or by notice filed on the docket of the Chapter 11 Cases, to consider (i) the adequacy of this Disclosure Statement and the Solicitation in connection herewith and (ii) confirmation of the Plan. The Debtors anticipate that notice of the Confirmation Hearing will be published and mailed to all known holders of Claims and Interests well in advance of the date by which objections must be filed with the Bankruptcy Court.

Timetable for the Chapter 11 Cases

In accordance with the Restructuring Support Agreement, the Debtors are proceeding with the implementation of the Plan through the Chapter 11 Cases.

•

Among the milestones contained in the Restructuring Support Agreement is the requirement that the Company shall commence the Chapter 11 Cases no later than 11:59 p.m. prevailing Central Time on July 1, 2025.

•

The Restructuring Support Agreement also requires that the Bankruptcy Court enter the order authorizing use of the Debtors’ cash collateral (the “Cash Collateral Order”) (i) on an interim basis, at or prior to 11:59 p.m. prevailing Central Time on the date that is three (3) calendar days after the Petition Date and (ii) on a final basis, at or prior to 11:59 p.m. prevailing Central Time on the date that is forty-five (45) days after the Petition Date.

•

The Restructuring Support Agreement also requires that the Bankruptcy Court enter the order approving this Disclosure Statement at or prior to 11:59 p.m. prevailing Central Time on the date that is seventy-five (75) calendar days following the Petition Date.

•

The Restructuring Support Agreement also requires that the Bankruptcy Court enter the Backstop Order at or prior to 11:59 p.m. prevailing Central Time on the date that is seventy-five (75) calendar days following the Petition Date.

•

The Restructuring Support Agreement also requires that the Bankruptcy Court enter the order confirming the Plan at or prior to 11:59 p.m. prevailing Central Time on the date that is seventy-five (75) calendar days following the Petition Date.

•

The Restructuring Support Agreement also requires that the Effective Date shall have occurred at or prior to four (4) months after the Petition Date (subject to extension in certain cases as set forth above); provided, that the Effective Date shall not take place any earlier than three (3) months from the effective date of the Restructuring Support Agreement.

•

The Debtors believe they can achieve the various milestones under the Restructuring Support Agreement, the occurrence of which is crucial to reorganizing the Debtors successfully.

VII.

TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS AND

CONSEQUENCES UNDER FEDE RAL SECURITIES LAWS

The Solicitation is being made before the Petition Date under section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act only to holders of Convertible Notes who are Eligible Holders (as defined herein).

The offer and sale by the Reorganized Debtors under the Plan to holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims, Allowed Convertible Notes Claims and Allowed Renesas Claims of the Plan Securities (exclusive of New 2L Convertible Notes purchased by the Backstop Parties (i) in respect of the Holdback Rights Offering Amount and (ii) that are not subscribed and purchased by the Holders of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims in respect of the Non-Holdback Rights Offering Amount) (collectively, the “1145 Securities”) shall be exempt, pursuant to section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, without further act or action by any Entity, from registration under (x) section 5 of the Securities Act, and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and (y) any state or local law requiring registration for the offer or sale of securities. To the extent section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code is not applicable, the Reorganized Debtors may rely upon other applicable exemptions from registration.

The 1145 Securities offered or sold by the Reorganized Debtors under the Plan pursuant to section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code will be unrestricted securities as set forth in section 1145(c) of the Bankruptcy Code and, generally, may be sold without registration under the Securities Act by the recipients thereof, unless the holder is an “affiliate” of the Reorganized Debtors (as defined in rule 144(a)(1) in the Securities Act), or has been such an “affiliate” within ninety (90) days of such transfer, and subject to: (i) the provisions of section 1145(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code relating to the definition of an “underwriter” in section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act, (ii) compliance with any applicable state or foreign securities laws, if any, and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, if any, applicable at the time of any future transfer of such securities or instruments; (iii) the restrictions, if any, on the transferability of such 1145 Securities, including any restrictions on the transferability under the terms of the Reorganized Debtors’ organizational documents; (iv) any applicable procedures of DTC and (v) any other applicable regulatory approvals and requirements.

Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code Exemption and Subsequent Transfers

Section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code generally exempts from registration under the Securities Act the offer or sale under a chapter 11 plan of a security of the debtor, of an affiliate participating in a joint plan with the debtor, or of a successor to the debtor under a plan, if such securities are offered or sold in exchange for a claim (including a claim for an administrative expense) against, or an interest in, the debtor or such affiliate, or principally in such exchange and partly for cash. Section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code also exempts from registration (i) the offer of a security through any right to subscribe that is sold in the manner provided in the prior sentence, and (ii) the sale of a security upon the exercise of such right. Pursuant to section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, without further act or action by any Entity, the offer and sale of the 1145 Securities shall be exempt from the registration requirements under (i) the Securities Act, and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) any state or local law requiring registration for the offer or sale of securities. These securities generally may be resold without registration under the Securities Act unless the holder is an “underwriter” with respect to such securities, as that term is defined in section 1145(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. In addition, these securities generally may be resold without registration under state securities laws pursuant to various exemptions provided by the respective laws of the several states.

Restricted Securities

Section 1145(b) of the Bankruptcy Code defines “underwriter” for purposes of the Securities Act as one who, except with respect to ordinary trading transactions, (i) purchases a claim with a view to distribution of any security to be received in exchange for the claim, (ii) offers to sell securities issued under a plan for the holder of such securities, (iii) offers to buy securities issued under a plan from persons receiving such securities, if the offer to buy is made with a view to distribution, or (iv) is an issuer, as used in section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act, with respect to such securities, which includes control persons of the issuer.

The definition of an “issuer” for purposes of whether a person is an underwriter under section 1145(b)(1)(D) of the Bankruptcy Code, includes Persons directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the issuer.

“Control,” as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act, means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise. The legislative history of section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code suggests that a creditor who owns ten percent (10%) or more of a class of voting securities of a reorganized debtor may be presumed to be a “controlling person” and, therefore, an underwriter. However, the staff of the SEC has not endorsed this view.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, “controlling person” underwriters may be able to sell securities without registration subject to the resale limitations of Rule 144 of the Securities Act, which permits the resale of securities received by such underwriters pursuant to a chapter 11 plan, subject to applicable volume limitations, notice and manner of sale requirements, and certain other conditions. Parties who believe they may be statutory underwriters as defined in section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code and/or “affiliates” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act are advised to consult with their own legal advisors as to the availability of the exemption provided by Rule 144.

In addition, New 2L Convertible Notes purchased by the Backstop Parties (i) in respect of the Holdback Rights Offering Amount and (ii) that are not subscribed and purchased by the Holders of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims in respect of the Non-Holdback Rights Offering Amount, shall be issued in reliance upon section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder and on equivalent state law registration exemptions or, solely to the extent such exemptions are not available, other available exemptions from registration under the Securities Act. Such securities will be considered “restricted securities” and may not be transferred except pursuant to an effective registration statement or under an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, such as, under certain conditions, the resale provisions of Rule 144 of the Securities Act, subject to, in each case, the transfer provisions, if any, and other applicable provisions set forth in the Reorganized Debtors’ organizational documents.

Rule 144 of the Securities Act defines an affiliate of the issuer as “a person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, such issuer.” A non-affiliate of an issuer that is not subject to the reporting requirements of section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and who has not been an affiliate of the issuer during the ninety days preceding such sale may resell securities after a one-year holding period whether or not there is current public information regarding the issuer, or six month if the issuer satisfies the current public information requirement under the Securities Act. An affiliate of an issuer that is not subject to the reporting requirements of section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act may resell restricted securities after the one-year holding period, if applicable, if at the time of the sale certain current public information regarding the issuer is available, or after six months if the issuer satisfies the current public information requirement under the Securities Act. An affiliate must also comply with certain volume limitations, manner of sale requirements and certain other conditions of Rule 144 of the Securities Act. An affiliate of an issuer that receives securities under section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code will not be subject to any holding period under Rule 144 of the Securities Act but will otherwise be subject to certain volume limitations, manner of sale requirements and certain other conditions of Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

In any case, recipients of securities issued under the Plan are advised to consult with their own legal advisors as to the availability of any such exemption from registration requirements under state law in any given instance and as to any applicable requirements or conditions to such availability.

Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act Exemption and Subsequent Transfers

Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act provides that the issuance of securities by an issuer in transactions not involving a public offering is exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act. Regulation D is a non-exclusive safe harbor from the registration requirements promulgated by the SEC under section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. In reliance upon this exemption, New Common Stock issued under the Plan (particularly with respect to any shares underlying the Base Consideration or Contingent Additional Consideration issued by the Reorganized Debtors to a third party prior to the receipt of Regulatory Approvals) pursuant to section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D thereunder will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act. Such securities will be considered “restricted securities” (within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and as discussed in the immediately preceding section), will bear customary legends and transfer restrictions, and may not be transferred except pursuant to an effective registration statement or under an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, such as, under certain conditions, the resale provisions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

To the extent any Reserve Shares are issued by the Reorganized Debtors to a third party prior to the receipt of Regulatory Approvals pursuant to section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, such issuances will be deemed approved by Reorganized Parent’s stockholders for purposes of compliance with the rules of the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Exchange, as applicable, and shall be deemed to satisfy any stockholder approval requirements for the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Exchange, as applicable.

***

To the extent certificated or issued by way of direct registration on the records of Reorganized Parent’s transfer agent, each book entry position or certificate representing, or issued in exchange for or upon the transfer, sale or assignment of, any Plan Security that is not an 1145 Security, as well as certificates evidencing the Plan Securities held by holders of 10% or more of the New Common Stock, or who are otherwise underwriters as defined in section 1145(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall, upon issuance, be deemed to contain or be stamped or otherwise imprinted, as applicable, with a restrictive legend in substantially the following form:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE ORIGINALLY ISSUED ON [DATE OF ISSUANCE], HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION THEREUNDER.”

The Reorganized Debtors will reserve the right to require certification, legal opinions or other evidence of compliance with Rule 144 as a condition to the removal of such legend or to any resale of any 1145 Securities. The Reorganized Debtors will also reserve the right to stop the transfer of any such securities if such transfer is not in compliance with Rule 144, pursuant to an effective resale registration statement or pursuant to another available exemption from the registration requirements of applicable securities laws.

***

Distributions of Plan Securities made under the Plan will be made through the facilities of DTC in accordance with DTC’s customary practices; provided, that such Plan Securities will only be issued in accordance with DTC book-entry procedures if the same are permitted to be held through DTC’s book-entry system; provided, further, that to the extent that the Plan Securities are not eligible for distribution in accordance with DTC’s customary practices, the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, will take such reasonable actions as may be required to cause distributions of the Plan Securities under the Plan.

DTC, any transfer agent, warrant agent or other similarly situated agent, trustee or other non- governmental Person or Entity shall accept and rely upon the Plan and Confirmation Order in lieu of a legal opinion for purposes of determining whether the offer and sale of the Plan Securities are exempt from registration under section 1145(a), and whether the Plan Securities were, under the Plan, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and valid and legally binding obligations of the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable.

Subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, the Plan and the Confirmation Order shall be deemed to be legal and binding obligations of the applicable Reorganized Debtors in all respects. Following the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors and any Person or Entity receiving securities under the Plan shall comply with all applicable provisions of the securities laws.

VIII.

CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PLAN

The following discussion is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the implementation of the Plan to the Debtors and to certain holders of Claims. The following summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax consequences to holders of Claims who are unimpaired, presumed to accept or deemed to reject the Plan, or otherwise entitled to payment in full in cash under the Plan. In addition, except in limited circumstances with respect to the New 2L Convertible Notes Right, this discussion does not address any consideration that is received on

account of a person’s capacity other than as a holder of such Claims that is not described in Article IV of the Plan. Accordingly, this discussion does not include the tax considerations relating to the receipt of the Backstop Premium, the Initial Backstop Parties’ Premium and the Backstop Holdback Allocation.

The discussion of U.S. federal income tax consequences below is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Tax Code”), regulations promulgated by the United States Department of the Treasury under the Tax Code (the “Treasury Regulations”), judicial authorities, published positions of the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), and other applicable authorities, all as in effect on the date of this Disclosure Statement, and all of which are subject to change or differing interpretations (possibly with retroactive effect). The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the contemplated transactions are complex and subject to significant uncertainties. The Debtors have not requested an opinion of counsel or a ruling from the IRS or any other taxing authority with respect to any of the tax aspects of the contemplated transactions, and the discussion below is not binding upon the IRS or any court. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a contrary position as to the U.S. federal income tax consequences described herein.

This summary does not address non-U.S., state, local, gift, or estate tax consequences of the Plan, nor does it purport to address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to a holder in light of its individual circumstances, including the impact of the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income and any alternative minimum tax, or to a holder that may be subject to special tax rules (such as persons who are related to any Debtor within the meaning of one of various provisions of the Tax Code; broker-dealers; banks; mutual funds; insurance companies; financial institutions; small business investment companies; real estate investment trusts; “qualified foreign pension funds” (as defined in section 897(l)(2) of the Tax Code) and entities all of the interests of which are held by qualified foreign pension funds; “controlled foreign corporations”; “passive foreign investment companies”; regulated investment companies; tax- exempt organizations; trusts; governmental authorities or agencies; dealers and traders in securities; individual retirement and other tax-deferred accounts and retirement plans; S corporations, partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and the beneficial owners who hold Claims through such entities); holders who do not elect out of the installment method with respect to their Claims; U.S. holders whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar; dealers in foreign currency; former citizens or former long-term residents of the United States and U.S. holders that hold their Claims through non-U.S. brokers or other non-U.S. intermediaries; holders who hold Claims as part of a straddle, hedge, conversion transaction or other integrated investment; holders using a mark-to-market method of accounting; holders of Claims who are themselves in bankruptcy; and holders who are accrual method taxpayers that report income on an “applicable financial statement”). In addition, this discussion does not address U.S. federal taxes other than income taxes and assumes that any holder of Allowed Renesas Claims is a U.S. Holder (as defined below).

Furthermore, this discussion assumes that the various debt and other arrangements to which the Debtors are a party will be respected for U.S. federal income tax purposes in accordance with their form and that, except where otherwise indicated, the Claims are held as “capital assets” (generally, property held for investment) within the meaning of section 1221 of the Tax Code. This summary does not apply to persons that acquire New Senior Secured Notes, New 2L Convertible Notes, New 2L Takeback Notes, New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes, New Common Stock, or Renesas Warrants in the secondary market.

In accordance with the Restructuring Support Agreement and in connection with the implementation of the Plan, holders of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims were given the right to subscribe for New 2L Convertible Notes on the terms described in the Plan (such right, the “New 2L Convertible Notes Right”). Any value attributable to the New 2L Convertible Notes received upon the receipt and exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right or, alternatively, the receipt of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right itself may be considered for tax purposes as value received by such holders of the Allowed Convertible Notes Claims in part as a recovery on such Claims under the Plan. While the Debtors have not yet determined whether any such treatment is appropriate, the remainder of this summary assumes (unless otherwise indicated) that the receipt and/or exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right is treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as the receipt and/or exercise of an option to acquire the New 2L Convertible Notes subscribed for.

Another possible characterization is that the receipt and/or exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right is treated as an integrated transaction pursuant to which the New 2L Convertible Notes are, in part, received directly in partial satisfaction of a holder’s Allowed Convertible Notes Claim. The characterization of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right and/or its subsequent exercise for U.S. federal income tax purposes—as the exercise of an option to acquire New 2L Convertible Notes or as an integrated transaction pursuant to which the New 2L Convertible Notes are received directly in partial satisfaction of a holder’s Allowed Convertible Notes Claim, or otherwise—is uncertain. Each holder of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims is urged to consult its tax advisors regarding the tax treatment of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right.

Finally, this discussion assumes that a Distribution Event will not occur and that Renesas will receive its consideration under the Plan on the Effective Date. If, contrary to such assumption, a Distribution Event does occur, then although not free from doubt, the Debtors and Renesas have agreed to treat, among other things, (i) the Base Consideration as beneficially owned by Renesas as of the Effective Date, (ii) the Contingent Additional Consideration as beneficially owned by Renesas in accordance with the distribution timing set forth in the Contingent Consideration Term Sheet, and (iii) the release of the Base Consideration and Contingent Additional Consideration to Renesas as a transaction that does not separately give rise to additional recognized gain or loss to Renesas. However, the Debtors’ and Renesas’ position would not be binding on the IRS or the courts, and there can be no assurance that such tax treatment would be accepted by the IRS or a court. If the IRS successfully challenged such tax treatment, then the Distribution Event may adversely affect the Debtors and holders of Allowed Claims. Holders of Allowed Claims are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the impact of the Distribution Event if it occurs and the IRS successfully challenges such tax treatment.

THE FOLLOWING SUMMARY OF CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR CAREFUL TAX PLANNING AND ADVICE BASED UPON A HOLDER’S INDIVIDUAL CIRCUMSTANCES. EACH HOLDER OF A CLAIM IS URGED TO CONSULT ITS TAX ADVISOR FOR THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, NON-U.S., AND OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES APPLICABLE UNDER THE PLAN.

THE DEBTORS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY HOLDERS’ TAX LIABILITY IN WHATSOEVER MANNER.

Proposed U.S. Tax Legislation

On May 22, 2025, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025 (the “OBBBA”), and this proposal is being considered by the U.S. Senate. The OBBBA, if enacted in the form passed by the U.S. House of Representatives, could have material and adverse tax consequences on holders of Allowed Claims and the Debtors. For example, the OBBA includes, among other things, proposed section 899 of the Tax Code, which would subject holders of Allowed Claims that are “applicable persons” (generally, non-U.S. persons that are tax residents of or organized in a “discriminatory foreign country”) to increased rates of U.S. federal income tax and withholding tax. Discriminatory foreign countries are countries that have one or more “unfair foreign taxes,” defined to include an undertaxed profits rule, digital services tax, diverted profits tax, as well as certain other taxes provided by the Secretary of the Treasury. It cannot be predicted whether, when, in what forms, or with what effective dates, the tax law applicable to the Debtors and/or any holders of Allowed Claims will be changed. Holders of Allowed Claims are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the potential tax consequences of the OBBBA or any other potential changes in tax law to them and the Debtors.

Consequences to Debtors

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, Wolfspeed is the common parent of an affiliated group of corporations that files a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return (the “Debtor Group”). The Debtors owns, directly and indirectly, U.S. and non-U.S. subsidiaries. As of the tax year ending June 30, 2024, the Debtors have federal net operating loss (“NOLs”) carryforwards of approximately $2.4 billion and carryforwards of federal disallowed business interest expense of approximately $128.7 million (“Suspended Interest Carryforwards”) and certain other tax attributes (collectively, the “Tax Attributes”) and expect to generate NOLs and other tax attributes in the current tax year ending June 30, 2025. The amount of such Tax Attributes remains subject to further analysis by the Debtors and potentially audit and adjustment by the IRS.

Cancellation of Debt

In general, absent an exception, a debtor will realize and recognize cancellation of debt (“COD”) income upon satisfaction of its outstanding indebtedness for total consideration less than the amount of such indebtedness. The amount of COD income, in general, is the excess of (a) the adjusted issue price of the indebtedness satisfied over (b) the sum of (i) the amount of cash paid, (ii) the “issue price” of any new debt issued by the taxpayer, and/or (iii) the fair market value of any other consideration (including equity of a debtor or a party related to such debtor) given in satisfaction, or as part of the discharge, of such indebtedness at the time of the exchange. The Plan provides that holders of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims will receive New 2L Takeback Notes, New 2L Convertible Notes (if applicable) and New Common Stock, and holders of Allowed Renesas Claims will receive New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes, New Common Stock and Renesas Warrants, in each case, in exchange for their Claims, so the amount of COD income for the Debtor Group will depend on the issue price (determined as described below) of the different investment units to be issued consisting of the applicable combinations of New 2L

Takeback Notes, New 2L Convertible Notes (if applicable), New Common Stock, New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes, and Renesas Warrants issued under the Plan in respect of such Claims. In addition, as discussed below (see “Consequences to Holders of Claims—U.S. Holders of Allowed Claims—Uncertain Treatment of New 2L Convertible Notes Rights” below), the receipt of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right may be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a recovery on the Allowed Convertible Notes Claims (or, alternatively, the receipt and exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right may be viewed for such purposes as an integrated transaction pursuant to which a portion of the New 2L Convertible Notes received would be treated as a recovery on the Allowed Convertible Notes Claims), in which case the value of such additional recovery would be taken into account in determining the amount of COD income. Accordingly, the estimated amount of COD income is uncertain at this time.

Under section 108 of the Tax Code, a taxpayer is not required to include COD in gross income (i) if the debtor is under the jurisdiction of a court in a case under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and the discharge of debt occurs pursuant to that proceeding or (ii) to the extent that the taxpayer is insolvent immediately before the discharge. As a consequence of such an exclusion, a debtor generally must reduce its tax attributes by the amount of COD income that it excluded from gross income. In general, such tax attributes are reduced in the following order: (a) NOLs; (b) general business credit carryovers; (c) minimum tax credit carryovers; (d) capital loss carryovers; (e) tax basis in assets (but not below the amount of liabilities to which the taxpayer remains subject immediately after the cancellation of indebtedness); (f) passive activity loss and credit carryovers; and (g) foreign tax credit carryovers. Alternatively, a taxpayer with excluded COD may elect first to reduce the basis of its depreciable assets (a “Section 108(b)(5) Election”), in which case the limitation described in (e) does not apply to the reduction in basis of depreciable property and, following such reduction, any remaining COD income that is excluded from gross income reduces any remaining tax attributes in the order specified in the prior sentence. The reduction of the taxpayer’s tax attributes occurs at the end of the tax year for which the excluded COD income is realized, but only after the taxpayer’s net income or loss for the taxable year of the debt discharge has been determined; in this way, the attribute reduction is generally effective as of the start of the taxable year following the discharge. If the amount of excluded COD income exceeds all available tax attributes, the excess generally is not subject to U.S. federal income tax. Where a taxpayer joins in the filing of a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return, applicable Treasury Regulations require, in certain circumstances, that certain tax attributes of other members of the group also be reduced.

In connection with the implementation of the Plan, the Debtors expect to realize a substantial amount of excluded COD income for U.S. federal income tax purposes and its Tax Attributes will be subject to the attribute reduction rules above. The Debtors have not yet determined whether to make a Section 108(b)(5) Election and expect that, if no Section 108(b)(5) Election is made, a substantial portion of their U.S. federal NOLs would be reduced as a result of the COD attribute reduction arising in connection with the Plan. The ultimate effect of the attribute reduction rules is uncertain because, among other things, it will depend on the amount of COD income realized by the Debtors.

Limitation on NOLs, Suspended Interest Carryforwards, and Other Tax Attributes

Following the Effective Date, any NOLs, Suspended Interest Carryforwards and certain other Tax Attributes, if any, allocable to tax periods or portions thereof ending on or prior to the Effective Date (collectively, “Pre-Change Losses”) or recognized built-in losses (“RBILs”) of the Debtors that are not reduced according to the COD attribute reduction rules described above may be subject to certain limitations under sections 382 and 383 of the Tax Code in the post-change period. Any such limitations apply in addition to, and not in lieu of, the attribute reduction that results from the exclusion of COD income arising in connection with the Plan.

Under section 382 of the Tax Code, if a corporation or consolidated group with Pre-Change Losses or RBILs (such corporation or consolidated group, a “loss corporation”) undergoes an “ownership change” as defined under section 382 of the Tax Code, the amount of its Pre-Change Losses and RBILs that may be utilized to offset future taxable income generally is subject to an annual limitation (the “annual limitation”). In general, an “ownership change” occurs if the percentage of the value of the loss corporation’s stock owned by one or more direct or indirect “5-percent shareholders” (within the meaning of section 382 of the Tax Code) increases by more than fifty percentage points over the lowest percentage of value owned by the 5-percent shareholders at any time during the applicable testing period. The testing period generally is the shorter of (a) the three-year period preceding the testing date and (b) the period of time since the most recent ownership change of the corporation. The Debtors anticipate that the distribution of the New Common Stock pursuant to the Plan will result in an ownership change of the Debtor Group for these purposes, and that the Debtor Group’s use of their Pre-Change Losses and RBILs will be subject to the annual limitation unless an exception to the general rules of sections 382 and 383 of the Tax Code applies.

General Annual Limitation

In general, the amount of the annual limitation to which a loss corporation that undergoes an ownership change would be subject is equal to the product of (a) the fair market value of the stock of the loss corporation (or parent of the consolidated group) immediately before the ownership change (with certain adjustments) and (b) the “long-term tax-exempt rate” (which is the highest of the adjusted federal long-term rates in effect for any month in the three-calendar-month period ending with the calendar month in which the ownership change occurs, e.g., 3.71% for ownership changes occurring in July 2025). For a loss corporation in bankruptcy that undergoes an ownership change pursuant to a confirmed bankruptcy plan, unless the special exception described below applies, the annual limitation will be determined under section 382(l)(6) of the Tax Code. In such case, the annual limitation is generally determined by reference to the fair market value of the stock of the loss corporation (or the parent of the consolidated group) immediately after (rather than before) the ownership change and after giving effect to the discharge of creditors’ claims, subject to certain adjustments; in no event, however, can the stock value for this purpose exceed the pre-change gross value of the assets of the loss corporation. Any portion of the annual limitation that is not used in a given year may be carried forward, thereby adding to the annual limitation for the subsequent taxable year.

Under certain circumstances, the annual limitation otherwise computed may be increased if the loss corporation has an overall built-in gain in its assets at the time of the ownership change. If a loss corporation has such “net unrealized built-in gain” at the time of an ownership change (taking into account most assets and items of “built-in” income, gain, loss, and deduction), any built-in gains recognized (or, according to a currently effective IRS notice, treated as recognized) during the following sixty-month period (up to the amount of the original net unrealized built-in gain) generally will increase the annual limitation in the year of such recognition, such that the loss corporation would be permitted to use its Pre-Change Losses against such built-in gain income in addition to its otherwise applicable annual limitation. Alternatively, if a loss corporation has a “net unrealized built-in loss” at the time of an ownership change, then any built-in losses existing at such time that are recognized (including, but not limited to, amortization or depreciation deductions attributable to such built-in losses) during the sixty-month period following the ownership change (up to the amount of the original net unrealized built-in loss) will be treated as Pre-Change Losses, the deductibility of which will be subject to the annual limitation. In general, the net unrealized built-in gain or loss will be deemed to be zero unless it is greater than the lesser of (a) $10 million or (b) 15% of the fair market value of the loss corporation’s assets (with certain adjustments) before the ownership change. The Debtors currently expect that the Debtor Group will have a net unrealized built-in gain as of the Effective Date.

If the loss corporation or consolidated group does not continue its historic business or use a significant portion of its historic assets in a new business for at least two years after the ownership change, the annual limitation resulting from the ownership change is reduced to zero, thereby precluding any utilization of the corporation’s pre-change losses (absent any increases due to recognized built-in gains). Currently, the Debtors anticipate that section 382 of the Tax Code will materially restrict the subsequent utilization of Pre-Change Losses after the Effective Date.

ii.

Special Bankruptcy Exception

Under section 382(l)(5) of the Tax Code, an exception to the foregoing annual limitation rules generally applies when, among other requirements, so-called “qualified creditors” and shareholders of a debtor corporation in chapter 11 receive, in respect of their claims or equity interests, respectively, at least fifty percent of the vote and value of the stock of the reorganized debtor (or a controlling corporation if also in chapter 11) pursuant to a confirmed chapter 11 plan. Instead, the debtor’s Pre-Change Losses are reduced by the amount of any interest deductions with respect to debt converted into stock in the bankruptcy reorganization that were allowed in the three full taxable years preceding the taxable year in which the ownership change occurs and in the part of the taxable year prior to and including the date of the ownership change attributable to the bankruptcy reorganization (the “Plan Ownership Change”). However, if any Pre-Change Losses and RBILs of the debtor already are subject to an annual limitation under section 382 of the Tax Code at the time of an ownership change subject to section 382(l)(5) of the Tax Code, those Pre- Change Losses and RBILs generally will continue to be subject to such limitation.

A qualified creditor is any creditor who has held the debt of the debtor for at least eighteen months prior to the petition date or who has held “ordinary course indebtedness” that has been owned at all times by such creditor. A creditor who does not become a direct or indirect five percent shareholder of the reorganized debtor generally may be treated by the debtor as having always held any debt owned immediately before the ownership change, unless the creditor’s participation in formulating the plan of reorganization makes evident to the debtor that the creditor has not owned the debt for the requisite period.

A debtor may elect not to apply section 382(l)(5) of the Tax Code to an ownership change that otherwise satisfies its requirements. This election must be made on the debtor’s federal income tax return for the taxable year in which the ownership change occurs. If section 382(l)(5) of the Tax Code applies to an ownership change (and the debtor does not elect out), any subsequent ownership change of the debtor within the two-year period following the date of the Plan Ownership Change will result in the debtor being unable to use any Pre-Change Losses in any taxable year ending after such subsequent ownership change to offset future taxable income.

If an ownership change pursuant to a bankruptcy plan does not satisfy the requirements of section 382(l)(5) of the Tax Code, or if a debtor elects not to apply section 382(l)(5) of the Tax Code, the debtor would be subject to the rules discussed above under “—General Annual Limitation.” It is not clear whether the Debtors will be eligible to apply section 382(1)(5) in connection with the Plan, but even if they are eligible the Debtors currently expect that they will elect not to apply the exception under section 382(l)(5) of the Tax Code in connection with the Plan.

Consequences to Holders of Claims

Except as otherwise discussed herein, the summary below generally assumes that holders of the applicable Claims will, each as a class, vote to accept the Plan. As used herein, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of Allowed Claims, New Senior Secured Notes, New 2L Convertible Notes, New 2L Takeback Notes, New Common Stock, Renesas Warrants, New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes or the New 2L Convertible Notes Right that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

•

an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

•

a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

•

an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

•

a trust, if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary jurisdiction over its administration and one or more United States persons (within the meaning of section 7701(a)(30) of the Tax Code) have authority to control all of its substantial decisions, or if the trust has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a United States person.

A “Non-U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of Allowed Claims, New Senior Secured Notes, New 2L Takeback Notes, New 2L Convertible Notes, New Common Stock or the New 2L Convertible Notes Right that is neither a U.S. Holder nor an entity or arrangement classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

If a partnership or other entity or arrangement classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds such Allowed Claims, New 2L Convertible Notes, New 2L Takeback Notes, New Common Stock, Renesas Warrants, New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes or the New 2L Convertible Notes Right, the tax treatment of a partner in such partnership (or arrangement) generally will depend upon the status of the partner, the activities of the partnership and certain determinations made at the partner-level. Each U.S. Holder that is a partnership or a partner in a partnership holding any of such instruments should consult its tax advisor.

U.S. Holders of Allowed Claims (Class 3, Class 4 & Class 5)

U.S. Holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims— Treatment of Exchange

Pursuant to the Plan, a holder of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims will receive in satisfaction of its Claims its Pro Rata share of (i) the New Senior Secured Notes and (ii) Cash in exchange for the repurchase of $250.0 million of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes at a repurchase price of 109.875%. In addition, pursuant to the Plan, the Debtors will be required to repurchase up to $225 million of the New Senior Secured Notes at a repurchase price of 109.875% on or prior to July 7, 2027.

Under applicable Treasury Regulations, the modification of the terms of a debt instrument (including pursuant to an exchange of a new debt instrument for the existing debt instrument) generally is a “significant modification” if, based on all of the facts and circumstances and taking into account all modifications of the debt instrument, the legal rights or obligations that are altered and the degree to which they are altered is “economically significant.” A change in the yield of a debt instrument is a “significant modification” if the yield of the modified instrument (as computed under the applicable Treasury Regulations) varies from the annual yield of the unmodified instrument (determined as of the date of the modification) by more than the greater of (i) 0.25% or (ii) 5% of the annual yield of the unmodified instrument. However, if a debt instrument is subject to a mandatory sinking fund provision, the provision is ignored for purposes of computing the yield and maturity of the debt instrument if the use and terms of the provision meet reasonable commercial standards. For purposes of the preceding sentence, a mandatory sinking fund provision is a provision that meets the following requirements: (1) requires the issuer to redeem a certain amount of debt instruments in an issue prior to maturity, (2) the debt instruments actually redeemed are chosen by lot or purchased by the issuer either in the open market or pursuant to an offer made to all holders (with any proration determined by lot), and (3) on the issue date, the specific debt instruments that will be redeemed on any date prior to maturity cannot be identified.

Although not free from doubt, based on such applicable Treasury Regulations, the Debtors expect, and the remainder of this discussion assumes, that the repurchase of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes, together with the exchange of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims pursuant to the Plan, should not be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as an “exchange” of such Claims for the New Senior Secured Notes.

ii.

U.S. Holders of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims—Recognition of Gain or Loss

Pursuant to the Plan, a U.S. Holder of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims will receive in satisfaction of its Claims its Pro Rata Share of the New 2L Takeback Notes and New Common Stock and, as discussed under “—Uncertain Treatment of New 2L Convertible Notes Right” may be treated as receiving the New 2L Convertible Notes Right in partial satisfaction of its Claims for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the exchange of the Convertible Notes for New 2L Takeback Notes, New Common Stock and the New 2L Convertible Notes Right (or, alternatively, the New 2L Convertible Notes received upon exercise of a New 2L Convertible Notes Right) (the “Convertible Note Exchange”) depends, in part, on whether the Convertible Notes and New 2L Takeback Notes constitute “securities” for purposes of the provisions of the Tax Code relating to tax-deferred transactions. The term “security” is not defined in the Tax Code or in the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder and has not been clearly defined by judicial decisions. The test of whether a debt obligation is a security involves an overall evaluation of the nature of the obligation, with the original term of the obligation usually regarded as one of the most significant factors. Debt obligations with a term of five years or less generally have not qualified as securities, whereas debt obligations with a term of ten years or more generally have qualified as securities. Another important factor in determining whether a debt obligation is a security is the extent to which the obligation is senior to or subordinated to other liabilities of the issuer. Generally, the more senior the debt obligation, the less likely it is to be a security. There are numerous other factors that could be taken into account in determining whether a debt instrument is a security, including the convertibility of the instrument into an equity interest of the obligor.

Although not free from doubt, the Convertible Notes are generally expected to qualify as a security because the notes are unsecured obligations with an original term of approximately six years and are convertible into stock of the Debtors.¹² Although the matter is not free from doubt, the New 2L Takeback Notes may constitute securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes because they have a term of more than five years and are subordinated to the New Senior Secured Notes. Likewise, the New 2L Convertible Notes are generally expected to constitute securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes because they have a term of more than five years, they are subordinated to the New Senior Secured Notes, and they are convertible into stock of the Debtors; however, it is unclear if the New 2L Convertible Notes Rights themselves can constitute securities because such rights are rights to acquire debt and not stock of the Debtors. If the Convertible Notes are treated as a security, the Convertible Note Exchange should constitute a tax-deferred (or partially tax-deferred if the New 2L Takeback Notes and New 2L Convertible Notes are not treated as securities) transaction (i.e., a recapitalization within the meaning of section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Tax Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Subject to the preceding discussion, U.S. Holders of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims should not recognize gain or loss in the Convertible Note Exchange (except to the extent described below under “—Distributions with Respect to Accrued But Unpaid Interest or OID”). A U.S. Holder’s

¹²	The remainder of this discussion assumes the Convertible Notes are “securities” for purposes of the provisions of the Tax Code relating to tax-deferred transactions.

initial tax basis in the New 2L Takeback Notes (to the extent treated as a “security”), New Common Stock and the New 2L Convertible Notes Right (or, alternatively, the New 2L Convertible Notes received upon exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right, in each case, to the extent treated as a recovery and a “security”) should be equal to its adjusted tax basis in the Convertible Notes exchanged therefor, and should be allocated between the New 2L Takeback Notes, New Common Stock and the New 2L Convertible Notes Right (or, alternatively the New 2L Convertible Notes received upon exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right, in each case, to the extent treated as a recovery and a “security”) in proportion to their fair market values as of the Effective Date. A U.S. Holder’s holding period in the New 2L Takeback Notes (to the extent treated as a “security”), New Common Stock and the New 2L Convertible Notes Right (or, alternatively the New 2L Convertible Notes received upon exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right, in each case, to the extent treated as a recovery and a “security”) should include the U.S. Holder’s holding period in the Convertible Notes. A U.S. Holder’s tax basis and holding period in the New 2L Takeback Notes (to the extent treated as a “security”), New Common Stock and the New 2L Convertible Notes Right (or, alternatively the New 2L Convertible Notes received upon exercise of the 2L Convertible Notes Right, in each case, to the extent treated as a recovery and a “security”) would generally be required to be calculated separately for each block of Convertible Notes exchanged therefor.

If the New 2L Takeback Notes (or the New 2L Convertible Notes Right (or, alternatively the New 2L Convertible Notes received upon exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right) to the extent treated as a recovery) do not constitute a security, then a U.S. Holder of Convertible Notes would recognize gain, but not loss, to the extent the lesser of (x) the total amount of gain realized from the Convertible Note Exchange and (y) the fair market value (as determined for purposes of section 356 of the Tax Code) of the New 2L Takeback Notes (and the New 2L Convertible Notes Right (or, alternatively the New 2L Convertible Notes received upon exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right), to the extent treated as a recovery), which is treated as additional consideration for the Convertible Notes. Subject to the “—New 2L Takeback Notes—Market Discount” discussion below, any such gain generally would be capital gain, and would be long-term capital gain if the U.S. Holder has held the Convertible Notes for more than one year as of the Effective Date. The U.S. Holder’s initial tax basis in the New 2L Takeback Notes and the New 2L Convertible Notes Right (or, alternatively the New 2L Convertible Notes received upon exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right, in each case, to the extent treated as a recovery) would be equal to the debt’s or right’s fair market value (as determined for purposes of section 358 of the Tax Code) on the Effective Date. In this case, the U.S. Holder’s initial tax basis in the New Common Stock would be equal to its adjusted tax basis in the Convertible Notes minus the fair market value of the New 2L Takeback Notes and New 2L Convertible Notes Right (or, alternatively the New 2L Convertible Notes received upon exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right, in each case, to the extent treated as a recovery) received on the Effective Date, plus the amount of any gain recognized by the U.S. Holder in the Convertible Note Exchange. The U.S. Holder’s holding period in the New Common Stock would include the U.S. Holder’s holding period in the Convertible Notes, and its holding period in the New 2L Takeback Notes and New 2L Convertible Notes Right (or, alternatively the New 2L Convertible Notes received upon exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right, in each case, to the extent treated as a recovery) would begin on the day after the Effective Date.

Any New 2L Takeback Notes, New Common Stock or the New 2L Convertible Notes Right (or, alternatively the New 2L Convertible Notes received upon exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right, in each case, to the extent treated as a recovery) received that are attributable to accrued but unpaid interest (or OID, if any) on the Allowed Convertible Notes Claims will be treated as described below under “—Distributions with Respect to Accrued But Unpaid Interest or OID.”

U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the applicable rates and the character of any gain on the receipt of New 2L Takeback Notes and New 2L Convertible Notes Right (or, alternatively the New 2L Convertible Notes received upon exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right) (i.e., as long-term or short-term capital gain, or as ordinary income) as their character will be determined by a number of factors, including (but not limited to) the tax status of the U.S. Holder, whether the Convertible Notes constitute a capital asset in the U.S. Holder’s hands, whether the Convertible Notes has been held for more than one year, whether the Convertible Notes has bond premium or market discount, and whether and to what extent the U.S. Holder previously claimed a bad debt deduction with respect to the Convertible Notes.

iii.

U.S. Holders of the Allowed Renesas Claims—Recognition of Gain or Loss

Pursuant to the Plan, a holder of Allowed Renesas Claims will receive its Pro Rata share of New Common Stock, New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes and Renesas Warrants in satisfaction of its Claims, as more as more fully described in the Plan. The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the exchange of the Renesas CRD for New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes, New Common Stock and Renesas Warrants (the “Renesas CRD Exchange”) depends, in part, on whether the Renesas CRD and New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes constitute “securities” for purposes of the provisions of the Tax Code relating to tax-deferred transactions.

As discussed above, the term “security” is not defined in the Tax Code or in the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder and has not been clearly defined by judicial decisions. See “—U.S. Holders of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims—Recognition of Gain or Loss” above. The Renesas CRD is expected to qualify as a security because it is an unsecured obligation with an original term of approximately ten years.¹³ In addition, the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes are expected to constitute securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes because they have a term of more than five years, they are subordinated to the New Senior Secured Notes and they are convertible into stock of the Debtors. Furthermore, the Debtors and Renesas currently intend, and have agreed, to take the position that the Renesas CRD Exchange constitutes a tax-deferred (or partially tax deferred) transaction (i.e., a recapitalization within the meaning of section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Tax Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Assuming that the treatment described in the preceding paragraph is respected, U.S. Holders of Allowed Renesas Claims should not recognize gain or loss in the Renesas CRD Exchange (except to the extent described below under “—Distributions with Respect to Accrued But Unpaid Interest or OID”). A U.S. Holder’s initial tax basis in the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes,

¹³	The remainder of this discussion assumes the Renesas CRD is a “security” for purposes of the provisions of the Tax Code relating to tax-deferred transactions.

New Common Stock, and Renesas Warrant should be equal to its adjusted tax basis in the Renesas CRD exchanged therefor, and should be allocated between the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes, New Common Stock and Renesas Warrant in proportion to their fair market values as of the Effective Date. A U.S. Holder’s holding period in the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes, New Common Stock and Renesas Warrant should include the U.S. Holder’s holding period in the Renesas CRD.

Any New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes, New Common Stock or Renesas Warrants received that are attributable to accrued but unpaid interest (or OID, if any) on the Allowed Renesas Claims will be treated as described below under “—Distributions with Respect to Accrued But Unpaid Interest or OID.”

U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of the Renesas CRD Exchange in the circumstances where the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes do not constitute a “security”.

iv.

Uncertain Treatment of New 2L Convertible Notes Rights

Because the New 2L Convertible Notes Right was made available to holders of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims in accordance with the Restructuring Support Agreement and in connection with the implementation of the Plan, any value attributable to the Allowed Convertible Notes Claims deemed received upon the exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right or to the receipt of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right itself may be considered for U.S. federal income tax purposes as value received by holders of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims as a recovery on such Claims under the Plan. The Debtors have not yet determined whether the treatment of the New 2L Convertible Notes received pursuant to the New 2L Convertible Notes Right as a recovery on the Allowed Convertible Notes Claims is appropriate or whether the New 2L Convertible Notes Right has any value. A U.S. Holder of Convertible Notes Claims may be responsible for determining whether the New 2L Convertible Notes Right has any value and the amount of any such value. As discussed above, the characterization of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right and its subsequent exercise for U.S. federal income tax purposes is uncertain.

If the New 2L Convertible Notes received upon the exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right are treated as an integrated transaction pursuant to which the New 2L Convertible Notes are acquired directly in partial satisfaction of a holder’s Allowed Convertible Notes Claims, the fair market value of the New 2L Convertible Notes treated as received in respect of the Convertible Notes Claims (rather than for Cash) would be taken into account in determining a U.S. Holder’s realized gain or loss, if any, with respect to its Allowed Convertible Notes Claims. If the New 2L Convertible Notes received are treated as a recovery, a U.S. Holder will have the tax consequences described in “—U.S. Holders of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims—Recognition of Gain or Loss” above.

Other potential characterizations of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right and the exercise thereof for U.S. federal income tax purposes are possible. For example, if the New 2L Convertible Notes Right is treated as an option that is received as part of a recovery on the Allowed Convertible Notes Claims, the fair market value of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right would be taken into account in determining a U.S. Holder’s realized gain or loss, if any, with respect to its Allowed

Convertible Notes Claim. In such a case, it would also be unclear if the New 2L Convertible Notes Right constitutes a “security” for U.S. federal income tax purposes (even if the New 2L Convertible Notes themselves are treated as “securities”); if it is not treated as a “security” and the exchange of the Allowed Convertible Notes Claims pursuant to the Plan is treated as a tax-deferred transaction (as discussed above), the New 2L Convertible Notes Right would be treated as “boot” received by holders in the exchange. If the exchange of the Allowed Convertible Notes Claims for the New 2L Takeback Notes and New Common Stock is treated as a tax-deferred transaction and the New 2L Convertible Notes Right is treated as a recovery, a U.S. Holder would have either a tax basis in the New 2L Convertible Notes Right based on the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in its Allowed Convertible Notes Claim (if the New 2L Convertible Notes Right is treated as a security) or a tax basis in the New 2L Convertible Notes Right equal to the fair market value (if it is not treated as a security). If the exchange of the Allowed Convertible Notes Claims for the New 2L Takeback Notes and New Common Stock is treated as a taxable transaction and the New 2L Convertible Notes Right is treated as a recovery, a U.S. Holder would have a tax basis in the New 2L Convertible Notes Right equal to the fair market value of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right.

If the New 2L Convertible Notes Right is characterized as an option, a U.S. Holder of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims generally would not recognize any gain or loss upon the exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right, and a U.S. Holder’s aggregate tax basis in the New 2L Convertible Note received would be equal to the sum of (a) the amount paid in the form of cash, for the New 2L Convertible Notes received and (b) the U.S. Holder’s tax basis, if any, in the New 2L Convertible Notes Right. A U.S. Holder’s holding period in the New 2L Convertible Notes received upon exercise of the New 2L Convertible Notes Right generally would commence on the day following the Effective Date.

It is uncertain whether a U.S. Holder that receives but does not exercise the New 2L Convertible Notes Right should be treated as receiving anything of additional value in respect of its Allowed Convertible Notes Claims. If the U.S. Holder is treated as having received a New 2L Convertible Notes Right of value (despite its subsequent lapse), such that the U.S. Holder obtains a tax basis in the New 2L Convertible Notes Right, the U.S. Holder generally would recognize a loss to the extent of the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the New 2L Convertible Notes Right. In general, such loss would be a short-term capital loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period in the New 2L Convertible Notes Right is one (1) year or less, or a long-term capital loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period is more than one year.

Distributions with Respect to Accrued But Unpaid Interest or OID

In general, to the extent that any consideration received pursuant to the Plan by a U.S. Holder of Allowed Claims is received in satisfaction of interest accrued during such U.S. Holder’s holding period, such amount will be taxable to the U.S. Holder as ordinary interest income (if not previously included in the U.S. Holder’s gross income under such U.S. Holder’s regular method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes). A U.S. Holder may be entitled to recognize a loss to the extent any accrued interest or accrued original issue discount (“OID”) was previously included in its gross income and is not paid in full. It is unclear whether a U.S. Holder would be required to recognize a capital loss, rather than an ordinary loss, with respect to previously included OID that is not paid in full. In addition, tax basis in the consideration received by a U.S. Holder pursuant to the Plan in satisfaction of interest accrued or OID accrued generally will be equal to the fair market value of such consideration, and such U.S. Holder’s holding period in such consideration should commence on the day following the Effective Date.

Article 6.17 of the Plan (Allocation of Distributions Between Principal and Interest) provides that distributions to holders with respect to any Allowed Claims will, except as otherwise required by applicable law (as reasonably determined by the Debtors), be allocated first to the principal amount of such Allowed Claims, with any excess allocated to the remaining portion of such Allowed Claim. There is no assurance that the IRS will respect such allocation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

U.S. Holders of Allowed Claims should consult their tax advisors regarding the proper allocation of the consideration received by them under the Plan, as well as the deductibility of accrued but unpaid interest (including OID, if any) and the character of any loss claimed with respect to accrued but unpaid interest (including OID, if any ) previously included in income for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

vi.

Market Discount

U.S. Holders of Convertible Notes may be affected by the market discount provisions of sections 1276 through 1278 of the Tax Code. Under these rules, some or all of any gain realized by a U.S. Holder of an Allowed Convertible Notes Claims as part of the Convertible Notes Exchange may be treated as ordinary income (instead of capital gain) to the extent of the amount of market discount on such Convertible Notes.

In general, a debt obligation with a fixed maturity of more than one year that is acquired by a holder on the secondary market (or, in certain circumstances, upon original issuance) is considered to be acquired with market discount as to that holder if the debt obligation’s stated redemption price at maturity (or revised issue price, in the case of a debt obligation issued with OID) exceeds the tax basis of the debt obligation in the holder’s hands immediately after its acquisition. However, a debt obligation will not be a market discount obligation if such excess is less than a statutory de minimis amount (equal to 0.25% of the debt obligation’s stated redemption price at maturity or revised issue price, in the case of a debt obligation issued with OID, multiplied by the number of complete years remaining to maturity as of the time the holder acquired the debt obligation).

Any gain recognized by a U.S. Holder on the taxable disposition of its Convertible Notes (determined as described above) that were acquired with market discount generally is expected to be treated as ordinary income to the extent of the market discount that accrued thereon while the Convertible Note was considered to be held by the U.S. Holder (unless the U.S. Holder elected to include market discount in income as it accrued). If a Convertible Note that was acquired with market discount is exchanged in a recapitalization, then any market discount that accrued on the Convertible Note (i.e., up to the time of the exchange) but was not recognized by the U.S. Holder, is carried over to the New 2L Takeback Notes received therefor and any gain recognized on the subsequent sale, exchange, redemption, or other disposition of such New 2L Takeback Notes is treated as ordinary income to the extent of such accrued market discount.

Ownership and Disposition of New 2L Takeback Notes

(a)

Contingent Payment Debt Instruments

The Debtors are taking the position that the Debtors are entitled to determine the accrual schedule for the New 2L Takeback Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes using a payment schedule in which all interest on the notes is initially assumed to be paid in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.1272-1(c) (the “Alternative Payment Schedule Rules”) and that the notes are not subject to the Treasury Regulations applicable to contingent payment debt instruments (a “CPDI” and the “CPDI Rules”). Under the Alternative Payment Schedule Rules, for each period for which the Debtors may elect to pay interest entirely in cash or pay interest entirely in-kind (“PIK interest”), including through issuance of a PIK note (a “PIK option”), the Debtors will be presumed to pay interest in cash if the exercise of the PIK option would not result in a lower yield to maturity of the New 2L Takeback Notes, and otherwise the Debtors will be presumed to pay PIK interest.

The Debtors expect that interest on the New 2L Takeback Notes will be paid in cash, but the presumption of whether interest will be paid in cash or PIK interest is made solely for U.S. federal income tax purposes and does not constitute a representation by the Debtors regarding the likelihood that interest on the New 2L Takeback Notes will be paid in cash or in the form of PIK interest. The Debtors’ determination that the Alternative Payment Schedule Rules apply to the New 2L Takeback Notes and that the New 2L Takeback Notes are not subject to the CPDI Rules is binding on a U.S. Holder, unless the U.S. Holder discloses in the proper manner to the IRS that it is taking a different position. This determination is not, however, binding on the IRS, and if the IRS successfully challenged these positions, the tax consequences of owning and disposing of the New 2L Takeback Notes could be materially different than those described herein, including with respect to the character, timing and amount of income, gain or loss recognized. The remainder of this disclosure assumes that the CPDI Rules will not apply to the New 2L Takeback Notes and that the Alternative Payment Schedule Rules will apply to the New 2L Takeback Notes in the manner described above, but there can be no assurances in this regard. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the CPDI Rules and the Alternative Payment Schedule Rules and the consequences thereof.

(b)

Issue Price

The issue price of a debt instrument issued in exchange for another debt instrument depends on whether either debt instrument is considered “traded on an established market” (“publicly traded”). If the New 2L Takeback Notes are treated as publicly traded for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the “issue price” of the New 2L Takeback Notes will be the fair market value of the New 2L Takeback Notes as of their issue date. If any of the Convertible Notes are, but the New 2L Takeback Notes are not, treated as publicly traded for U.S. federal income tax purposes, then the issue price of the New 2L Takeback Notes received in exchange for the relevant Convertible Notes will be the fair market value of the Convertible Notes exchanged for the New 2L Takeback Notes, as determined on the issue date of the New 2L Takeback Notes. If none of the Convertible Notes or the New 2L Takeback Notes are treated as publicly traded, then the issue price of the New 2L Takeback Notes issued in exchange for the Convertible Notes will be the principal amount of such New 2L Takeback Notes.

The New 2L Takeback Notes will be considered to be publicly traded if, at any time during the 31-day period ending 15 days after their issue date, the New 2L Takeback Notes are traded on an “established market.” The New 2L Takeback Notes will be considered to trade on an established market if (i) there is a price for an executed purchase or sale of the New 2L Takeback Notes that is reasonably available within a reasonable period of time after the sale; (ii) there is at least one price quote for the New 2L Takeback Notes from at least one reasonably identifiable broker, dealer or pricing service, which price quote is substantially the same as the price for which the person receiving the quoted price could purchase or sell the New 2L Takeback Notes (a “firm quote”), or (iii) there is at least one price quote for the New 2L Takeback Notes other than a firm quote, available from at least one such broker, dealer, or pricing service (unless such price quotes represent mere indicative quotes and a position is established that demonstrates that such indicative quotes materially misrepresented the fair market value of such property). These same rules should also apply for purposes of determining whether the Convertible Notes will be considered to be publicly traded.

However, where, as here, creditors who are receiving debt instruments (i.e., New 2L Takeback Notes) are also receiving other property (i.e., New Common Stock and New 2L Convertible Notes Rights) in exchange for their Convertible Notes, the “investment unit” rules also apply to the determination of the issue price for any debt instrument received in exchange for their Convertible Notes. In general, if all of the components (other than cash) of the investment unit are publicly traded (as described above), then the issue price of the investment unit, as a whole, is determined by summing the fair market value of each of the components of the investment unit, and then allocating the issue price of the investment unit to each of the investment unit’s components on the basis of the investment unit’s fair market value. In the event that some, but not all, of the property composing the investment unit are publicly traded, then the application of the investment unit rules is unclear. If the Convertible Notes being exchanged for the investment unit are publicly traded prior to the exchange, the trading value of such Convertible Notes may set the issue price for the investment unit, with such issue price being allocated among the components of the investment unit. Alternatively, some practitioners take the view that under such circumstances, if the new debt instrument is publicly traded, the trading price of the new debt instrument controls the issue price of the new debt instrument, without regard to the potential application of the investment unit rules.

In general, U.S. Holders of New 2L Takeback Notes must follow the Debtors’ determination of issue price under the investment unit rules, unless such U.S. Holder specifically discloses its disagreement with such determination in connection with the U.S. Holder’s filing of its tax return. The Debtors will publish their determination of the issue price in accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations.

(c)

Payments of Interest (including OID)

The New 2L Takeback Notes will be treated as having been issued with OID for U.S. federal income tax purposes, because no portion of the interest on the New 2L Takeback Notes is unconditionally payable in cash at least annually. The New 2L Takeback Notes will be issued with OID in an amount equal to the excess of the sum of all principal and interest payments provided by the note (initially taking into account the payment schedule assumption, as described below) over the issue price (as defined above) of the New 2L Takeback Notes. U.S. Holders generally will be required to include such OID in gross income (as ordinary income) on an annual basis under a constant yield accrual method regardless of their regular method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a result, U.S. Holders generally will include any OID in income in advance of the receipt of cash attributable to such income.

The amount of OID includible in income by a U.S. Holder is the sum of the “daily portions” of OID with respect to the New 2L Takeback Notes for each day during the taxable year or portion thereof in which such U.S. Holder holds the New 2L Takeback Notes. A daily portion is determined by allocating to each day in any “accrual period” a pro rata portion of the OID that accrued in such period. The accrual period of a New 2L Takeback Note may be of any length and may vary in length over the term of the note, provided that each accrual period is no longer than one year and each scheduled payment of principal or interest occurs either on the first or last day of an accrual period. The amount of OID that accrues with respect to any accrual period other than the final accrual period is the product of the New 2L Takeback Note’s “adjusted issue price” at the beginning of such accrual period and its “yield to maturity,” determined on a constant yield method, compounded at the close of each accrual period and properly adjusted for the length of such accrual period. OID allocable to a final accrual period is the difference between the amount payable at maturity and the adjusted issue price at the beginning of the final accrual period. The adjusted issue price of a New 2L Takeback Note at the start of any accrual period generally is equal to its issue price, increased by the OID includible in income for each prior accrual period and decreased by payments previously made on the New 2L Takeback Notes (taking into account the effect of any prior pro rata prepayments, as discussed below). The yield to maturity of a New

2L Takeback Note is the discount rate that, when used in computing the present value of all principal and interest payments to be made on the New 2L Takeback Note under the methodology described above, produces an amount equal to the issue price of the New 2L Takeback Note.

(d)

Payments of PIK Interest

Any payments of PIK interest (either in the form of a PIK note or as an increase to the outstanding principal of the New 2L Takeback Notes) will not be treated as a payment of interest on the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Instead, any PIK interest paid on a New 2L Takeback Note will be treated together with the New 2L Takeback Note as a single note for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

As discussed above under “—Contingent Payment Debt Instruments,” the Debtors will be presumed to pay interest in cash with respect to each period for which a PIK option exists if the exercise of the Debtors’ option to pay PIK interest would not result in a lower yield to maturity of the New 2L Takeback Note. In such case, if the Debtors do not exercise their option to pay PIK interest, with respect to any interest period for which that option is not exercised, a U.S. Holder will not be required to adjust its OID calculation for future periods. If, contrary to this assumption above, the Debtors do in fact exercise their option to pay PIK interest for any interest period (a “change in circumstances”), the U.S. Holder’s OID calculation for future periods will be adjusted by (i) treating the New 2L Takeback Notes (solely for the purposes of determining the amount of OID on the New 2L Takeback Notes) as if they had been retired and then reissued on the date of the change in circumstances for an amount equal to their adjusted issue price on that date, and (ii) recalculating the amount of OID on, and yield to maturity of, the reissued New 2L Takeback Notes by treating the amount of such PIK interest (and of any PIK interest from a prior PIK Interest election) as a payment that will be made on the maturity date of the New 2L Takeback Notes. The deemed reissued notes could become subject to the CPDI Rules.

Alternatively, the Debtors will be presumed to exercise their option to pay PIK interest with respect to each period for which a PIK option exists if doing so would result in a lower yield to maturity of the New 2L Takeback Notes. In such case, with respect to any interest period for which that option is exercised, the U.S. Holder will not be required to adjust its OID calculation for future periods. If, contrary to this assumption, the Debtors elect to pay all or a portion of that interest in cash, such cash portion would be treated not as a payment of accrued OID, but instead as a pro rata prepayment in retirement of a portion of the New 2L Takeback Notes, which may result in a gain or loss to the U.S. Holder. Generally, the gain or loss would be calculated by assuming that the New 2L Takeback Notes consist of two instruments, one portion that is retired and one that remains outstanding. The adjusted issue price, adjusted basis and accrued but unpaid OID of the New 2L Takeback Notes, determined immediately before the pro rata prepayment, would be allocated between those two instruments based on the portion of the New 2L Takeback Notes that would be treated as retired by the pro rata prepayment and the portion of the New 2L Takeback Notes treated as remaining after the pro rata prepayment.

The assumptions described above regarding whether we will or will not pay PIK interest are made solely for United States federal income tax purposes and do not constitute a representation regarding the likelihood that interest will be paid in cash or in the form of PIK interest.

Each payment made in cash under the New 2L Takeback Notes, other than a pro rata prepayment (if any) described above, will be treated first as a payment of any accrued OID that has not been allocated to prior payments and second as a payment of principal. A U.S. Holder generally will not be required to include separately in income cash payments received on the New 2L Takeback Notes to the extent such payments constitute payments of previously accrued OID or payments of principal. The rules governing OID are complex. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the application of these rules in light of their particular circumstances.

(e)

Amortizable Bond Premium, Acquisition Premium and Market Discount

If a U.S. Holder’s initial tax basis in the New 2L Takeback Notes is greater than the stated principal amount of the New 2L Takeback Notes, the U.S. Holder will be considered to have acquired the New 2L Takeback Notes with “amortizable bond premium.” In such case, if the New 2L Takeback Notes are treated as issued with OID, the U.S. Holder will not be required to include any OID in income. A U.S. Holder generally may elect to amortize bond premium over the remaining term of the New 2L Takeback Notes on a constant yield method as an offset to stated interest when includible in income under the U.S. Holder’s regular method of tax accounting. However, if the Debtors may redeem the New 2L Takeback Notes prior to maturity at a premium, special rules apply that may reduce, eliminate or defer the amount of bond premium that a U.S. Holder may amortize with respect to the New 2L Takeback Notes. A U.S. Holder who elects to amortize bond premium must reduce its tax basis in the New 2L Takeback Notes by the amount of the premium amortized in any year. An election to amortize bond premium on a constant yield method will also apply to all other taxable debt instruments held or subsequently acquired by a U.S. Holder on or after the first day of the first taxable year for which the election is made. Such an election may not be revoked without the consent of the IRS.

A U.S. Holder may be treated as having “acquisition premium” on the New 2L Takeback Notes to the extent such holder’s tax basis in the New 2L Takeback Notes immediately after the exchange is greater than the issue price and less than or equal to the stated principal amount of the New 2L Takeback Notes. In such cases, the amount of OID that must be included in gross income for each OID accrual period with respect to the New 2L Takeback Notes will be reduced by the portion of the acquisition premium properly allocable to that period.

If the Convertible Note Exchange is treated as a recapitalization, a U.S. Holder may be treated as having market discount, as discussed above under “—U.S. Holder of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims—Recognition of Gain or Loss.” Any market discount will be considered to accrue ratably during the period from the date of acquisition to the maturity date of the New 2L Takeback Notes unless a U.S. Holder elects to accrue on a constant yield method. A U.S. Holder may elect to include market discount in income currently as it accrues, on either the ratable or constant yield method. In the absence of such election to include market discount currently, a U.S. Holder treated as having acquired the New 2L Takeback Notes at market discount may be required to defer, until the maturity of the New 2L Takeback Notes or their earlier disposition in a taxable transaction, the deduction of all or a portion of the interest expense on any indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase or carry the New 2L Takeback Notes.

U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the bond premium and acquisition premium rules as well as market discount rules to their particular circumstances.

(f)

Sale, Retirement, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition

In general, a U.S. Holder of New 2L Takeback Notes will recognize gain or loss upon the sale, retirement, redemption or other taxable disposition of such New 2L Takeback Notes in an amount equal to the difference between (1) the amount of cash and the fair market value of property received in exchange therefor and (2) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such New 2L Takeback Notes. A U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the New 2L Takeback Notes will generally equal its initial tax basis in the New 2L Takeback Notes (determined as described above), increased by any accrued OID and market discount previously included in income and decreased by any cash interest previously paid on the New 2L Takeback Notes (taking into account the effect of any pro rata prepayment) and any bond premium that it previously amortized with respect to the New 2L Takeback Notes. If we pay PIK interest on a New 2L Takeback Note, a U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the note should be allocated between such note and any PIK notes received in connection with the payment of PIK interest in proportion to their relative principal amounts. A U.S. Holder’s holding period in any such PIK note would be identical to its holding period for the original note with respect to which the PIK note was received. Any gain or loss recognized generally will be capital gain (except to the extent gain is attributable to any accrued market discount, which accrued market discount would be treated generally in the manner described above in the section titled “—Amortizable Bond Premium, Acquisition Premium and Market Discount”) or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the New 2L Takeback Notes were held for more than one year. Net long-term capital gains recognized by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, generally will be taxable at a reduced rate. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to certain limitations.

viii.

Ownership and Disposition of New 2L Convertible Notes

(a)

Issue Price

The issue price of the New 2L Convertible Notes will depend on whether a “substantial amount” is issued for cash, and, if not, whether the New 2L Convertible Notes or, if the integrated transaction treatment above applies to the New 2L Convertible Notes Right, the Convertible Notes are publicly traded.

If a substantial amount of debt instruments in an issue is issued for cash, the issue price of each debt instrument in the issue will be the first price at which a “substantial amount” of the debt instruments is sold for cash (other than to persons other than bond houses, brokers, or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers). Neither the Tax Code nor the Treasury Regulations define the term “substantial amount,” and it has not been clearly defined by judicial decisions or other guidance. If the amount of New 2L Convertible Notes issued for cash is not a “substantial amount,” the issue price of the New 2L Convertible Notes will be determined under the rules for the issue price of debt-for-debt exchanges (see discussion of issue price above in “—Ownership and Disposition of New 2L Takeback Notes— Issue Price”).

In general, U.S. Holders of New 2L Convertible Notes must follow the Debtors’ determination of issue price, unless such U.S. Holder specifically discloses its disagreement with such determination in connection with the U.S. Holder’s filing of its tax return. The Debtors will publish their determination of the issue price in accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations.

(b)

Payments of Interest (including OID)

Payments of qualified stated interest on a New 2L Convertible Note generally will be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary income at the time such interest is received or accrued, in accordance with such U.S. Holder’s method of tax accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Qualified stated interest generally means stated interest that is unconditionally payable in cash or in property (other than debt instruments of the issuer) at least annually at a single fixed rate or a single qualified floating rate. The stated interest on the New 2L Convertible Notes is expected to be treated as qualified stated interest.

The New 2L Convertible Notes will be treated as issued with OID for U.S. federal income tax purposes if the “stated redemption price at maturity” exceeds their “issue price” by an amount equal to or more than a statutorily defined de minimis amount (generally, 0.0025 multiplied by the product of the stated redemption price at maturity and the number of complete years to maturity). The “stated redemption price at maturity” of the applicable New 2L Convertible Notes is the total of all payments to be made under such New 2L Convertible Notes other than qualified stated interest.

It is anticipated, and this discussion assumes, that the New 2L Convertible Notes will be issued with more than a statutorily defined de minimis amount of OID for U.S. federal income tax purposes. See discussion above under “—Ownership and Disposition of New 2L Takeback Notes— Payments of Interest (including OID)”.

(c)

Contingent Payment Debt Instruments

In certain circumstances, the Debtors may be obligated to make payments on the New 2L Convertible Notes in excess of stated principal and interest. The Debtors expect that these contingencies would not cause the New 2L Convertible Notes to be treated as CPDIs under the CPDI Rules. Assuming such position is respected, a U.S. Holder would be required to include in income the amount of any such additional payments at the time such payments are received or accrued, in accordance with such U.S. holder’s method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Debtors’ position is binding on a U.S. Holder, unless the U.S. Holder discloses in the proper manner to the IRS that it is taking a different position. If the IRS successfully challenged our position, and the notes were treated as CPDIs, U.S. Holders would generally be required to accrue interest income based upon a “comparable yield,” regardless of the U.S. Holder’s method of tax accounting. That yield would generally be at a rate higher than the notes’ stated interest rate, and U.S. Holders would be required to treat as ordinary income, rather than capital gain, any gain on a sale, exchange, retirement or redemption of a New 2L Convertible Note (including all gain upon conversion, even if the U.S. Holder receives shares of Wolfspeed’s common stock). This discussion assumes that the New 2L Convertible Notes will not be considered CPDIs and that no such additional payments will be due. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the potential application to the New 2L Convertible Notes of the CPDI Rules and the consequences thereof.

(d)

Sale, Retirement, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition

Except as provided below under “—Conversion,” a U.S. Holder generally will recognize gain or loss upon the sale, retirement, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of a New 2L Convertible Note (including an exchange with a designated financial institution in lieu of conversion) equal to the difference between the amount realized (less accrued but unpaid interest which will be treated as described above under “—Payments of Interest (including OID)”) and such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the New 2L Convertible Note. The amount realized by a U.S. Holder will include the amount of any cash and the fair market value of any other property received for the New 2L Convertible Note. A U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in a New 2L Convertible Note generally will be equal to the amount that the U.S. Holder paid for the New 2L Convertible Note as adjusted for the amount of any constructive distribution included in income as described below under “—Constructive Distributions.” Any gain or loss recognized on a taxable disposition of a New 2L Convertible Note will be capital gain or loss. If, at the time of the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of a New 2L Convertible Note, the U.S. Holder held the note for more than one year, such gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss. Otherwise, such gain or loss will be short-term capital gain or loss. In the case of certain non-corporate U.S. Holders (including individuals), long-term capital gains are generally subject to a reduced rate of U.S. federal income tax. A U.S. Holder’s ability to deduct capital losses may be limited.

(e)

Conversion

If a U.S. Holder presents a New 2L Convertible Note for conversion, the U.S. Holder may receive solely cash, solely Wolfspeed’s common stock, or a combination of cash and Wolfspeed’s common stock in exchange for the New 2L Convertible Note depending upon the Debtors’ chosen settlement method.

If a U.S. Holder receives solely cash in exchange for a New 2L Convertible Note upon conversion, the U.S. Holder will generally recognize gain or loss upon such conversion, and such gain or loss will be determined in the same manner as if the U.S. Holder disposed of the New 2L Convertible Note in a taxable disposition (as described above under “—Sale, Retirement, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition”).

If a U.S. Holder receives solely Wolfspeed’s common stock (and cash in lieu of a fractional share of Wolfspeed’s common stock) in exchange for New 2L Convertible Notes upon conversion (excluding an exchange with a designated financial institution in lieu of conversion, which would be taxable as described above under “—Sale, Retirement, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition”), the U.S. Holder generally will not recognize gain or loss upon the conversion of the notes into Wolfspeed’s common stock except to the extent of (i) cash received in lieu of a fractional share and (ii) amounts received with respect to accrued but unpaid interest (which will be treated as described above under “—Payments of Interest (including OID)”).

The amount of gain or loss a U.S. Holder will recognize on the receipt of cash in lieu of a fractional share will be equal to the difference between the amount of cash the U.S. Holder receives in respect of the fractional share and the portion of the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the New 2L Convertible Note that is allocable to the fractional share. Any such gain or loss generally would be capital gain or loss and would be long-term capital gain or loss if, at the time of the conversion, the New 2L Convertible Note has been held for more than one year. The tax basis of shares of Wolfspeed’s common stock received upon a conversion (other than shares attributable to accrued but unpaid interest, the tax basis of which will equal their fair market value) will equal the adjusted tax basis of the New 2L Convertible Note that was converted (excluding the portion of the adjusted tax basis that is allocable to any fractional share). The U.S. Holder’s holding period for the shares of Wolfspeed’s common stock will include the period during which the U.S. Holder held the New 2L Convertible Notes, except that the holding period of any shares received with respect to accrued but unpaid interest will commence on the day after the date of receipt.

As described below, the tax treatment of a conversion of a New 2L Convertible Note into a combination of cash and Wolfspeed’s common stock is uncertain and subject to different characterizations, and U.S. Holders of New 2L Convertible Notes should consult their tax advisors regarding the consequences of such a conversion.

Treatment as a Recapitalization. If a combination of cash and Wolfspeed’s common stock is received by a U.S. Holder upon conversion of a New 2L Convertible Note (excluding an exchange with a designated financial institution in lieu of conversion, which would be taxable as described above under “—Sale, Retirement, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition”), the Debtors expect that the New 2L Convertible Note is a “security” for U.S. federal income tax purposes and that the conversion should be treated as a recapitalization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However,

this position is not free from doubt and there can be no assurance in this regard. In such case, gain, but not loss, would be recognized by the U.S. Holder equal to the excess of the fair market value of Wolfspeed’s common stock (including any fractional share deemed received) and cash received (other than amounts attributable to accrued but unpaid interest, which will be treated as described above under “—Payments of Interest (including OID),” and other than any cash received in lieu of a fractional share) over the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the note, but in no event would the gain recognized exceed the amount of cash received (excluding any cash received in lieu of a fractional share or attributable to accrued but unpaid interest). The amount of gain or loss recognized on the receipt of cash in lieu of a fractional share would be equal to the difference between the amount of cash received and the portion of the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in Wolfspeed’s common stock received that is allocable to the fractional share, as described in the following paragraph. Any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on conversion of a note generally would be capital gain or loss and would be long-term capital gain or loss if, at the time of the conversion, the New 2L Convertible Note has been held for more than one year.

The tax basis of Wolfspeed’s common stock received upon such a conversion (including any fractional share deemed to be received by the U.S. Holder, but excluding any common stock attributable to accrued but unpaid interest, the tax basis of which would equal its fair market value), assuming such conversion were treated as a recapitalization, would equal the adjusted tax basis of the New 2L Convertible Note that was converted, reduced by the amount of any cash received (excluding cash received in lieu of a fractional share or attributable to accrued but unpaid interest), and increased by the amount of gain, if any, recognized (other than gain recognized on any cash received with respect to a fractional share). A U.S. Holder’s holding period for Wolfspeed’s common stock would include the period during which the U.S. Holder held the New 2L Convertible Note, except that the holding period for any common stock received with respect to accrued but unpaid interest would commence on the day after Wolfspeed’s common stock is received.

Alternative Treatment as Part Conversion and Part Redemption. If the conversion of a New 2L Convertible Note into a combination of cash and Wolfspeed’s common stock (excluding an exchange with a designated financial institution in lieu of conversion, which would be taxable as described above under “—Sale, Retirement, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition”) were not treated as a recapitalization as discussed in the immediately preceding section, the cash payment received (excluding cash received in lieu of a fractional share and excluding amounts attributable to accrued but unpaid interest) may be treated as proceeds from the sale of a portion of the New 2L Convertible Note and taxed in the manner described above under “—Sale, Retirement, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition,” in which case Wolfspeed’s common stock received (including any fractional share deemed received) on such a conversion would be treated as received upon a conversion of the other portion of the note, which generally would not be taxable to a U.S. Holder except to the extent of any cash received in lieu of a fractional share and/or any common stock received with respect to accrued but unpaid interest. In that case, the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the New 2L Convertible Note would generally be allocated pro rata among Wolfspeed’s common stock received and the portion of the note that is treated as sold for cash based on the fair market value of the Debtors’ common stock and the cash. The holding period for Wolfspeed’s common stock received in the conversion would include the holding period for the New 2L Convertible Note, except that the holding period of any common stock received with respect to accrued but unpaid interest would commence on the day after Wolfspeed’s common stock is received.

(f)

Constructive Distributions

The conversion rate of the New 2L Convertible Notes will be adjusted in certain circumstances. Adjustments (or failures to make adjustments) that have the effect of increasing a U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest in the Debtors’ assets or earnings and profits (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) may, in some circumstances, result in a deemed distribution to the U.S. Holder for U.S. federal income tax purposes even though no cash or property is received. Adjustments to the conversion rate made pursuant to a bona fide reasonable adjustment formula that has the effect of preventing the dilution of the interest of the holders of the New 2L Convertible Notes, however, will generally not result in a deemed distribution to a U.S. Holder.

Certain of the conversion rate adjustments provided in the New 2L Convertible Notes (including, without limitation, adjustments in respect of taxable dividends to holders of Wolfspeed’s common stock) will not qualify as being pursuant to a bona fide reasonable adjustment formula. If such adjustments are made, a U.S. Holder will be deemed to have received a distribution even though the U.S. Holder has not received any cash or property as a result of such conversion rate adjustment. In addition, an adjustment to the conversion rate in connection with a make-whole fundamental change or in connection with a notice of redemption may be treated as a deemed distribution.

Any deemed distribution will be taxable as a dividend, to the extent of the Debtors’ current or accumulated earnings and profits, generally as described below under “—Ownership and Disposition of New Common Stock —Distributions.” However, it is unclear whether a constructive dividend deemed paid to a non-corporate U.S. Holder would be eligible for the lower applicable long-term capital gains rates as described below under “—Ownership and Disposition of New Common Stock —Distributions.” It is also unclear whether corporate U.S. Holders would be entitled to claim the dividends received deduction with respect to any such constructive dividends.

Generally, a U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in a New 2L Convertible Note will be increased to the extent any such constructive distribution is treated as a dividend.

The Debtors are currently required to report the amount of any deemed distributions on their website or to the IRS and to holders of New 2L Convertible Notes not exempt from information reporting. The IRS proposed regulations addressing the amount and timing of deemed distributions, obligations of withholding agents and filing and notice obligations of issuers in respect of such deemed distributions. If adopted as proposed, the regulations would generally provide that (i) the amount of a deemed distribution is the excess of the fair market value of the right to acquire stock immediately after the conversion rate adjustment over the fair market value of the right to acquire stock without the adjustment, (ii) the deemed distribution occurs at the earlier of the date the adjustment occurs under the terms of the New 2L Convertible Note and the date of the actual distribution of cash or property that results in the deemed distribution, (iii) subject to certain limited exceptions, a withholding agent is required to impose any applicable withholding on deemed distributions and, if there is no associated cash payment, may set-off its withholding obligations against or withhold such amounts from payments on the New 2L Convertible Notes

(or, in some circumstances, any payments on Wolfspeed’s common stock) or sales proceeds received by or other funds or assets of an investor, and (iv) we are required to report the amount of any deemed distributions on our website or to the IRS and to all holders of New 2L Convertible Notes (including holders of New 2L Convertible Notes that would otherwise be exempt from information reporting). The final regulations will be effective for deemed distributions occurring on or after the date of adoption, but holders and beneficial owners of notes and withholding agents may rely on the proposed regulations prior to that date under certain circumstances.

(g)

Exchange in Lieu of Conversion

If a U.S. Holder surrenders New 2L Convertible Notes for conversion and such notes are exchanged with a designated financial institution, the U.S. Holder will be required to recognize gain or loss as described under “—Sale, Retirement, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition.” In such case, the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in Wolfspeed’s common stock received will equal the fair market value of Wolfspeed’s common stock on the date of the exchange, and the U.S. Holder’s holding period in Wolfspeed’s common stock received will begin on the day after the date of the exchange.

Ownership and Disposition of New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes

(a)

Issue Price

This discussion assumes that the Renesas CRD is not treated as publicly traded for U.S. federal income purposes, so the issue price of the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes will depend on whether the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes are treated as publicly traded for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes are treated as publicly traded for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the issue price of the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes will be the fair market value of the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes as of their issue date. If the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes are not treated as publicly traded, then the issue price of the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes will be the principal amount of such New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes.

However, where, as here, creditors who are receiving debt instruments (i.e., New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes) are also receiving other property (i.e., New Common Stock and Renesas Warrants) in exchange for the Renesas CRD, the “investment unit” rules also apply to the determination of the issue price for any debt instrument received in exchange for the Renesas CRD. In general, if all of the components (other than cash) of the investment unit are publicly traded (as described above), then the issue price of the investment unit, as a whole, is determined by summing the fair market value of each of the components of the investment unit, and then allocating the issue price of the investment unit to each of the investment unit’s components on the basis of the investment unit’s fair market value. In the event that some, but not all, of the property composing the investment unit are publicly traded, then the application of the investment unit rules is unclear. Some practitioners take the view that under such circumstances, if the new debt instrument is publicly traded, the trading price of the new debt instrument controls the issue price of the new debt instrument, without regard to the potential application of the investment unit rules.

In general, U.S. Holders of New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes must follow the Debtors’ determination of issue price, unless such U.S. Holder specifically discloses its disagreement with such determination in connection with the U.S. Holder’s filing of its tax return. The Debtors will publish their determination of the issue price in accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations.

(b)

Payments of Interest

Payments of qualified stated interest on New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes generally will be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary income at the time such interest is received or accrued, in accordance with such U.S. Holder’s method of tax accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Qualified stated interest generally means stated interest that is unconditionally payable in cash or in property (other than debt instruments of the issuer) at least annually at a single fixed rate or a single qualified floating rate. The stated interest on the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes is expected to be treated as qualified stated interest.

The New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes will be treated as issued with OID for U.S. federal income tax purposes if the “stated redemption price at maturity” exceeds their “issue price” by an amount equal to or more than a statutorily defined de minimis amount (generally, 0.0025 multiplied by the product of the stated redemption price at maturity and the number of complete years to maturity). The “stated redemption price at maturity” of the applicable New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes is the total of all payments to be made under such New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes other than qualified stated interest.

It is anticipated, and this discussion assumes, that the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes will not be issued with more than a statutorily defined de minimis amount of OID for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Exchange in Lieu of Conversion

See the discussion above under “—Ownership and Disposition of New 2L Convertible Notes— Exchange in Lieu of Conversion”.

Ownership and Disposition of New Common Stock

(a)

Distributions

A U.S. Holder of New Common Stock generally will be required to include in gross income as ordinary dividend income the amount of any distributions (other than certain pro rata distributions of New Common Stock) paid on the New Common Stock to the extent such distributions are paid out of the Debtors’ current or accumulated earnings and profits as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Distributions that are not treated as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes will constitute a return of capital and will first be applied against and reduce a U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the New Common Stock, but not below zero. Any excess amount will be treated as gain from a sale or exchange of the New Common Stock. Dividends received by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders (including individuals) are generally taxed at the lower applicable long-term capital gains rates, provided certain holding period and other requirements are satisfied. U.S. Holders that are treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes may be entitled to a dividends received deduction with respect to distributions out of earnings and profits.

(b)

Sale or Other Taxable Disposition

U.S. Holders generally will recognize gain or loss upon the sale or other taxable disposition of the New Common Stock in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (i) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the New Common Stock exchanged and (ii) the sum of the cash and the fair market value of any property received in such disposition. Any such gain or loss generally should be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for its New Common Stock exceeds one year at the time of the sale or exchange. A reduced tax rate on long-term capital gain may apply to non-corporate U.S. Holders. The deductibility of capital loss is subject to limitations.

In general, any gain recognized by a U.S. Holder upon a disposition of the New Common Stock will be treated as ordinary income for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent of (i) any ordinary loss deductions previously claimed as a result of the write-down of the Claim, decreased by any income (other than interest income) recognized by the U.S. Holder upon exchange of the Claim, and (ii) with respect to a cash method U.S. Holder and in addition to clause (i) above, any amounts which would have been included in its gross income if the U.S. Holder’s Claim had been satisfied in full but which was not included by reason of the cash method of accounting.

xi.

Ownership and Disposition of Renesas Warrants

(a)

Sale or Other Taxable Disposition, Exercise or Expiration

U.S. Holders generally will recognize gain or loss upon the sale or other taxable disposition of the Renesas Warrants in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (i) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Renesas Warrants exchanged and (ii) the sum of the cash and the fair market value of any property received in such disposition. Any such gain or loss generally should be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for its Renesas Warrants exceeds one year at the time of the sale or other taxable disposition. A reduced tax rate on long-term capital gain may apply to non-corporate U.S. Holders. The deductibility of capital loss is subject to limitations.

Except as described below with respect to the treatment of a cashless exercise of Renesas Warrants, a U.S. Holder will generally not be required to recognize income, gain or loss upon exercise of a Renesas Warrant for its exercise price, except with respect to any cash received in lieu of a fractional share. A U.S. Holder’s basis in a share of common stock received upon exercise will be equal to the U.S. Holder’s basis in the Renesas Warrant plus the exercise price of the Renesas Warrant less any portion of the tax basis allocable to the cash received in lieu of a fractional share. Cash received in lieu of a fractional share should be treated as a payment in exchange for the fractional share interest. A U.S. Holder’s holding period in the shares received upon exercise will commence on the day such holder exercises the Renesas Warrants.

Although there is no direct legal authority as to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of an exercise of a Renesas Warrant on a cashless basis, the Debtors expect that such exercise would not be taxable, either because the exercise is not a gain realization event or because it qualifies as a tax-deferred recapitalization. If this is the case, a U.S. Holder generally will not recognize gain or loss upon the exercise of a Renesas Warrant except to the extent of any cash received in lieu of a fractional share as described above. If the exercise qualifies as a tax-deferred recapitalization, the holding period of the common stock would include the holding period of the exercised Renesas Warrants. The Debtors’ position is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS may treat a cashless exercise of a Renesas Warrant as a taxable exchange, in which case a U.S. Holder would recognize taxable gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the exercise price deemed paid and the tax basis in the Renesas Warrants surrendered as payment of the exercise price. A U.S. Holder will have a tax basis in the common stock received upon exercise of a Renesas Warrant equal to such U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the Renesas Warrant exercised and further increased by any gain or decreased by any loss recognized in the transaction and adjusted for cash, if any, received in lieu of a fractional share. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors as to the consequences of an exercise of a Renesas Warrant on a cashless basis.

If a Renesas Warrant expires without being exercised, a U.S. Holder will recognize a capital loss in an amount equal to such holder’s tax basis in the Renesas Warrant. Such loss will be long-term capital loss if, at the time of the expiration, the U.S. Holder’s holding period in such Renesas Warrant is more than one year. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

(b)

Constructive Distributions

See the discussion above under “—Ownership and Disposition of New 2L Convertible Notes— Constructive Distributions.”

U.S. Holders of Existing Equity Interests (Class 10)

Recognition of Gain or Loss

U.S. Holders of Existing Equity Interests should not recognize gain or loss on the exchange of Existing Equity Interests for New Common Stock (the “Existing Equity Exchange”). A U.S. Holder’s initial tax basis in the New Common Stock should be equal to its adjusted tax basis in the Existing Equity Interests exchanged therefor, and should be allocated between the New Common Stock in proportion to their fair market values as of the Effective Date. A U.S. Holder’s holding period in the New Common Stock should include the U.S. Holder’s holding period in the Existing Equity Interests. A U.S. Holder’s tax basis and holding period in the New Common Stock would generally be required to be calculated separately for each block of Existing Equity Interests exchanged therefor.

ii.

Ownership and Disposition of New Common Stock

See the discussion above under “—U.S. Holders of Allowed Claims (Class 3, Class 4 & Class 5)— Ownership and Disposition of New Common Stock.”

Non-U.S. Holders of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims and Existing Equity Interests

The rules governing U.S. federal income taxation of a Non-U.S. Holder are complex. The following discussion includes only certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Plan to Non-U.S. Holders. The discussion does not include any non-U.S. tax considerations. Non-U.S. Holders should consult with their tax advisors to determine the effect of U.S. federal, state, and local tax laws, as well as any other applicable non-U.S. tax laws and/or treaties, with regard to their participation in the transactions contemplated by the Plan, their ownership of Claims, and the ownership and disposition of New 2L Takeback Notes, New 2L Convertible Notes Rights (or, alternatively, the New 2L Convertible Notes), or New Common Stock, as applicable.

Recognition of Gain or Loss

Whether a Non-U.S. Holder of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims or Existing Equity Interests realizes gain or loss on an exchange of Claims pursuant to the Plan, or on a subsequent disposition of the consideration received under the Plan, and the amount of such gain or loss is determined in the same manner as set forth above in connection with U.S. Holders.

Any gain recognized by a Non-U.S. Holder on the Convertible Note Exchange (as described above in “—U.S. Holders of Allowed Claims (Class 3, Class 4 & Class 5)—U.S. Holders of Allowed Convertible Notes Claims—Recognition of Gain or Loss”), Existing Equity Exchange (as described above in “—U.S. Holders Of Existing Equity Interests (Class 10)—Recognition of Gain or Loss”), or a subsequent sale or other taxable disposition of the New 2L Takeback Notes (as described above in “—U.S. Holders of Allowed Claims (Class 3, Class 4 & Class 5)—Ownership and Disposition of New 2L Takeback Notes—Sale, Retirement, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition”), or New Common Stock (as described above in “—U.S. Holders of Allowed Claims (Class 3, Class 4 & Class 5)—Ownership and Disposition of New Common Stock —Sale or Other Taxable Disposition”) generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxation unless:

•

the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who was present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year in which the relevant sale, exchange or other taxable disposition occurs and certain other conditions are met,

•

such gain is effectively connected with the conduct by such Non-U.S. Holder of a trade or business in the United States (and if required by an applicable income tax treaty, such gain is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by such Non-U.S. Holder in the United States), or

•

the Existing Equity Interests, the Convertible Notes, the New 2L Convertible Notes, or the New Common Stock, respectively constitutes a U.S. real property interest (“USRPI”) by reason of the Debtors being treated as a U.S. real property holding corporation (“USRPHC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes within the meaning of the Foreign Investment Real Property Tax Act of 1980 and section 897 of the Tax Code (“FIRPTA”), in the circumstances described below.

If the first exception applies, to the extent that any gain is recognized, the Non-U.S. Holder generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% (or at a reduced rate or exemption from tax under an applicable income tax treaty) on the amount by which such Non-U.S. Holder’s capital gains allocable to U.S. sources exceed its capital losses allocable to U.S. sources during the taxable year of the exchange. If the second exception applies, the Non-U.S. Holder generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax with respect to any gain recognized in the same manner as a U.S. Holder. In order to claim an exemption from withholding tax, such Non-U.S. Holder will be required to provide a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI (or such successor form as the IRS designates). In addition, if such Non-U.S. Holder is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, it may be subject to a branch profits tax equal to 30% (or such lower rate provided by an applicable income tax treaty) of its effectively connected earnings and profits for the taxable year, subject to certain adjustments.

With respect to the third exception above, the Debtors believe Wolfspeed may be a USRPHC and expect to make a determination in the future as to whether Wolfspeed is a USRPHC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Generally, a corporation is a USRPHC if the fair market value of its USRPIs equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market value of its worldwide real property interests and its other assets used or held for use in a trade or business.

If the Existing Equity Interests are regularly traded on an established securities market, a Non-U.S. Holder will only be taxable on gain realized as a result of the exchange of Convertible Notes pursuant to the Convertible Note Exchange, if: (i) the Convertible Notes are not considered to be regularly traded on an established securities market and such Non-U.S. Holder actually or constructively owns, or owned at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the Effective Date or the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Convertible Notes, Convertible Notes with a fair market value in excess of 5% of the Existing Equity Interests as of the last date such Non-U.S. Holder acquired such Convertible Notes, or (ii) the applicable class of Convertible Notes are considered to be regularly traded on an established securities market and such Non-U.S. Holder actually or constructively owns, or owned at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the Effective Date or the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Convertible Notes, more than 5% of the applicable class of Convertible Notes. Although not free from doubt, the Debtors believe the Convertible Notes should all be treated as “regularly traded on an established securities market.”

If the Existing Equity Interests are regularly traded on an established securities market, only a Non-U.S. Holder that actually or constructively owns, or owned at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the Effective Date or the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period for Existing Equity Interests, more than 5% of the Existing Equity Interests will be taxable on gain realized on the Existing Equity Exchange as a result of Wolfspeed’s status as a USRPHC. If the Existing Equity Interests were not considered to be regularly traded on an established securities market, such Non-U.S. Holder (regardless of the percentage of stock owned) would generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the Existing Equity Exchange, and a 15% withholding tax would apply to the gross proceeds from such disposition unless a non-recognition exception applies.

If in the calendar year of a disposition of New Common Stock by a Non-U.S. Holder, the New Common Stock is considered to be regularly traded on an established securities market, only a Non-U.S. Holder that actually or constructively owns, or owned at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of the disposition or the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period for the New Common Stock, more than 5% of the New Common Stock will be taxable on gain realized on the disposition of New Common Stock as a result of the status of Wolfspeed as a USRPHC.

If in the calendar year of a disposition of New 2L Convertible Notes by a Non-U.S. Holder, the New Common Stock is considered to be regularly traded on an established securities market, a Non-U.S. Holder will only be taxable on gain realized on the disposition of New 2L Convertible Notes if: (i) the New 2L Convertible Notes are not considered to be regularly traded on an established securities market and such Non-U.S. Holder actually or constructively owns, or owned at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the Effective Date or the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period for the New 2L Convertible Notes, New 2L Convertible Notes with a value in excess of 5% of the New Common Stock as of the last date such Non-U.S. Holder acquired such New 2L Convertible Notes, or (ii) the New 2L Convertible Notes are considered to be regularly traded on an established securities market and such Non-U.S. Holder actually or constructively owns, or owned at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the Effective Date or the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period for the New 2L Convertible Notes, more than 5% of the New 2L Convertible Notes. Although not free from doubt, the Debtors believe the New 2L Convertible Notes should be treated as “regularly traded on an established securities market.”

If a Non-U.S. Holder is subject to taxation under FIRPTA on the disposition of the New 2L Convertible Notes or New Common Stock because such Non-U.S. Holder meets the ownership thresholds described above, such Non-U.S. Holder generally will be required to file a U.S. federal income tax return and be subject to the same treatment as a U.S. Holder with respect to such gain. In addition, if the New 2L Convertible Notes are not considered, or if the New Common Stock ceases, to be regularly traded on an established securities market, a transferee of the New 2L Convertible Notes or New Common Stock (regardless of the percentage of New 2L Convertible Notes or New Common Stock owned) could be required to withhold up to 15% of the proceeds paid to a Non-U.S. Nolder for the New 2L Convertible Notes or New Common Stock and remit such amount to the IRS unless a non-recognition exception applies.

Any amounts (including common stock) that a Non-U.S. Holder receives on a sale, exchange, redemption, conversion or other taxable disposition of a note that are attributable to accrued but unpaid interest will be treated as interest and may be subject to U.S. federal income tax in accordance with the rules described below under “—Interest.”

ii.

Interest

Payments to a Non-U.S. Holder that are attributable to interest (including any OID and gain from the sale, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of the New 2L Takeback Notes that is treated as interest income as discussed above in”—U.S. Holders of Allowed Claims (Class 3, Class 4 & Class 5)—Ownership and Disposition of New 2L Takeback Notes—Sale, Retirement, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition”) that is not effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, such gain is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by such Non- U.S. Holder in the United States) generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, provided that the withholding agent has received or receives, prior to payment, appropriate documentation (generally, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E) establishing that the Non-U.S. Holder is not a United States person (within the meaning of section 7701(a)(30) of the Tax Code). Interest income, however, may be subject to U.S. withholding tax if, at the applicable time:

•

the Non-U.S. Holder actually or constructively owns 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of voting stock of the Debtors (with respect to payments of interest on the Convertible Notes) or the Reorganized Debtors (with respect to payments of interest on the New 2L Takeback Notes or New 2L Convertible Notes);

•

the Non-U.S. Holder is a “controlled foreign corporation” that is a “related person” (each, within the meaning of the Tax Code) with respect to Debtors (with respect to payments of interest on the Convertible Notes) or the Reorganized Debtors (with respect to payments of interest on the New 2L Takeback Notes or New 2L Convertible Notes); or

•

the Non-U.S. Holder is a bank receiving interest described in section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Tax Code.

If interest paid to a Non-U.S. Holder is effectively connected with the conduct by such Non-U.S. Holder of a trade or business in the United States (and if required by an applicable income tax treaty, such interest is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by such Non-U.S. Holder in the United States), the Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax but will be subject to U.S. federal income tax with respect to such interest in the same manner as a U.S. Holder under rules similar to those discussed above with respect to gain that is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States (see “— Recognition of Gain or Loss” above).

A Non-U.S. Holder that does not qualify for the above exemption with respect to interest that is not effectively connected income generally will be subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax on such interest at a 30% rate, unless such Non-U.S. Holder is entitled to a reduction in or exemption from withholding on such interest as a result of an applicable income tax treaty. To claim such entitlement, the Non-U.S. Holder must provide the applicable withholding agent with a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E claiming a reduction in or exemption from withholding tax on such payments of interest under the benefit of an income tax treaty between the United States and the country in which the Non-U.S. Holder resides or is established. For purposes of providing a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, special procedures are provided under applicable Treasury Regulations for payments through qualified foreign intermediaries or certain financial institutions that hold customers’ securities in the ordinary course of their trade or business.

iii.

Conversion of New 2L Convertible Notes

Any gain recognized by a Non-U.S. Holder upon a conversion of the New 2L Convertible Notes as determined in the same manner as described above under “—U.S. Holders of Allowed Claims (Class 3, Class 4 & Class 5)—Ownership and Disposition of New 2L Convertible Notes— Conversion” will be subject to U.S. federal income tax if either of the conditions in the first two bullet points above under “—Recognition of Gain or Loss” are satisfied. Any amounts received with respect to accrued but unpaid interest will be taxed as ordinary interest income (which will be treated as described above under “—Interest”).

In addition, because the Debtors believe Wolfspeed may be considered a USRPHC, if a Non-U.S. Holder has exceeded the applicable FIRPTA ownership thresholds described above during the specified testing period with respect to the New 2L Convertible Notes, such Non-U.S. Holder generally will be subject to the following treatment with respect to a conversion of the New 2L Convertible Notes, depending on the manner in which the Debtors settle a conversion:

•

If the Debtors elect to settle a conversion solely in cash, such Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain as determined in the same manner as described above under “—U.S. Holders of Allowed Claims (Class 3, Class 4 & Class 5)— Ownership and Disposition of New 2L Convertible Notes—Sale, Retirement, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition.”

•

If the Debtors elect to settle a conversion through the delivery of a combination of cash and New Common Stock, gain recognized by such Non-U.S. Holder will be determined in the same manner as described above under “—U.S. Holders of Allowed Claims (Class 3, Class 4 & Class 5)—Ownership and Disposition of New 2L Convertible Notes— Conversion” and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax, unless the New 2L Convertible Notes are converted into New Common Stock which, immediately following the conversion, would be subject to U.S. taxation upon their disposition (i.e., would exceed the FIRPTA ownership threshold described above), and the Non-U.S. Holder complies with certain procedural requirements.

•

If the Debtors elect to settle a conversion solely in shares of New Common Stock, such Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to U.S. federal income tax upon a conversion of a New 2L Convertible Notes into New Common Stock to the extent of gain recognized on cash received in lieu of a fractional share. Although the Debtors believe that the rules described in the preceding paragraph do not govern a conversion solely into New Common Stock, the application of such rules is not entirely clear and it is possible that the IRS may assert that such a conversion may be subject to FIRPTA if the Non-U.S. Holder meets the applicable FIRPTA ownership thresholds.

If Wolfspeed is considered a USRPHC, a Non-U.S. Holder may be subject to withholding at a rate of up to 15% on the cash and New Common Stock to be delivered upon conversion of the New 2L Convertible Notes unless the Non-U.S. Holder certifies that it has not exceeded the applicable ownership thresholds with respect to the notes during the specified testing period. Non-U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of conversion of the New 2L Convertible Notes.

iv.

Distributions on New Common Stock

Any distributions made with respect to New Common Stock that constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes (see “—U.S. Holders Of Allowed Claims (Class 3, Class 4 & Class 5)—Ownership and Disposition of New Common Stock—Distributions”) that are not effectively connected with a Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business (or, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are not attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by such Non-U.S. Holder in the United States) will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30% (or lower treaty rate or exemption from tax, if applicable) of the gross amount of the dividends. A Non-U.S. Holder generally will be required to satisfy certain IRS certification requirements in order to claim a reduction of or exemption from withholding under a tax treaty by filing IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or a successor form) upon which the Non-U.S. Holder certifies, under penalties of perjury, its status as a non-U.S. person and its entitlement to the lower treaty rate or exemption from tax with respect to such payments. Dividends paid with respect to New Common Stock held by a Non-U.S. Holder that are effectively connected with a Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by such Non-U.S. Holder in the United States) generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax with respect to such dividends in the same manner as a U.S. Holder under rules similar to those discussed above with respect to gain that is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States (see “—Recognition of Gain or Loss” above).

If the Debtors make a distribution of cash with respect to New Common Stock in excess of the Debtors’ current and accumulated earnings and profits and Wolfspeed is a USRPHC (or was treated as a USRPHC at any time during the five-year period ending on the date of a distribution), the applicable withholding agent may satisfy any withholding requirements by treating the entire distribution as a dividend that is subject to the withholding rules generally as described in the previous paragraph (and withhold at a rate generally as described in such paragraph, but at a rate no less than 15% or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty for distributions from a USRPHC), or the applicable withholding agent could treat only the amount of the distribution reasonably estimated to be paid from the Debtors’ current and accumulated earnings and profits as a dividend that is generally subject to the withholding rules as described in the previous paragraph, with the excess portion of the distribution (if any) treated generally as the result of a sale of common stock in a USRPHC (discussed above under “—Recognition of Gain or Loss”). To receive the benefit of a reduced treaty rate on distributions, a Non-U.S. Holder must provide the withholding agent with an IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or other appropriate form) certifying qualification for the reduced rate. Because we can provide no assurance that the Debtors are not a USRPHC, an applicable withholding agent may apply the rules applicable to distributions by USRPHCs (as described in the preceding sentence).

Constructive Dividends on New 2L Convertible Notes

A Non-U.S. Holder may be deemed to have received a constructive distribution from the Debtors under either section 305(c) or section 871(m) of the Tax Code, which may be taxable as a dividend, if the Debtors make certain adjustments, or fail to make certain adjustments, to the number of shares of New Common Stock to be issued upon the conversion of the New 2L Convertible Notes. See “—U.S. Holders Of Allowed Claims (Class 3, Class 4 & Class 5)—Ownership and Disposition of Renesas Warrants—Sale or Other Disposition, Exercise or Expiration” and “—U.S. Holders of Allowed Claims (Class 3, Class 4 & Class 5)—Ownership and Disposition of New 2L Convertible Notes”.

Additional Withholding Tax on Payments Made to Foreign Accounts

Withholding taxes may be imposed under sections 1471 to 1474 of the Tax Code (such sections, commonly referred to as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”)) on certain types of payments made to non-U.S. financial institutions and certain other non-U.S. entities. Specifically, a 30% withholding tax may be imposed on dividends or interest or (subject to the proposed Treasury Regulations discussed below) gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of stock or debt instruments, in each case paid to a “foreign financial institution” or a “non-financial foreign entity” (each as defined in the Tax Code), unless (a) the foreign financial institution undertakes certain diligence and reporting obligations, (b) the non-financial foreign entity either certifies it does not have any “substantial United States owners” (as defined in the Tax Code) or furnishes identifying information regarding each substantial United States owner, or (c) the foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity otherwise qualifies for an exemption from these rules. If the payee is a foreign financial institution and is subject to the diligence and reporting requirements in clause (a) above, it must enter into an agreement with the United States Department of the Treasury requiring, among other things, that it undertake to identify accounts held by certain “specified United States persons” or “United States owned foreign entities” (each as defined in the Tax Code), annually report certain information about such accounts, and withhold 30% on certain payments to non-compliant foreign financial institutions and certain other account holders. Foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules.

Under the applicable Treasury Regulations and administrative guidance, withholding under FATCA generally applies to payments of dividends on New Common Stock or interest on New 2L Takeback Notes and New 2L Convertible Notes. While withholding under FATCA would have applied also to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of such instruments on or after January 1, 2019, proposed Treasury Regulations eliminate FATCA withholding on payments of gross proceeds entirely. Taxpayers generally may rely on these proposed Treasury Regulations until final Treasury Regulations are issued. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the potential application of withholding under FATCA.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

All distributions to holders of Claims under the Plan are subject to any applicable tax withholding and information reporting requirements. Under U.S. federal income tax law, interest, dividends and other reportable payments may, under certain circumstances, be subject to “backup withholding” (currently at a rate of 24%) if a recipient of those payments fails to furnish to the payor certain identifying information, fails properly to report interest or dividends, and, under certain circumstances, fails to provide a certification.

In addition, from an information reporting perspective, Treasury Regulations generally require disclosure by a taxpayer on its U.S. federal income tax return of certain types of transactions in which the taxpayer participated, including, among other types of transactions, certain transactions that result in the taxpayer’s claiming a loss in excess of specified thresholds. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding these regulations and whether the transactions contemplated by the Plan would be subject to these regulations and require disclosure on the Holders’ tax returns.

THE FOREGOING SUMMARY HAS BEEN PROVIDED FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND DOES NOT DISCUSS ALL ASPECTS OF U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAXATION THAT MAY BE RELEVANT TO A PARTICULAR HOLDER OF A CLAIM. ALL HOLDERS OF CLAIMS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS CONCERNING THE FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, NON-U.S., AND OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES APPLICABLE UNDER THE PLAN.

IX.

CERTAIN RISK FACTORS TO BE CONSIDERED

Prior to voting to accept or reject the Plan, holders of Claims should read and carefully consider the risk factors set forth below, in addition to the information set forth in this Disclosure Statement together with any attachments, exhibits, or documents incorporated by reference hereto. The factors below should not be regarded as the only risks associated with the Plan or its implementation. The factors below should not be regarded as the only risks associated with the Plan or its implementation. Additional risk factors identified in Wolfspeed’s public filings with the SEC may also be applicable to the matters set out herein and should be reviewed and considered in conjunction with this Disclosure Statement, to the extent applicable. The risk factors set forth in Wolfspeed’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 filed with the SEC on August 22, 2024, as updated by the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 29, 2024 filed with the SEC on November 7, 2024, the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 29, 2024 filed with the SEC on January 30, 2025, and the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 30, 2025 filed with the SEC on May 9, 2025 are hereby incorporated by reference. New factors, risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time and it is not possible to predict all such factors, risks and uncertainties.

Certain Bankruptcy Law Considerations

General

Although the Debtors believe that the Chapter 11 Cases will not be materially disruptive to their business, the Debtors cannot be certain that this will be the case, including if the Effective Date is prolonged. Although the Plan is designed to minimize the length of the Chapter 11 Cases, it is impossible to predict with certainty the amount of time that one or more of the Debtors may spend in bankruptcy or to assure parties in interest that the Plan will be confirmed. It is possible that bankruptcy cases could adversely affect the Debtors’ relationships with their key customers, vendors, and employees. The Chapter 11 Cases will also involve additional expense and may divert some of the attention of the Debtors’ management away from business operations.

ii.

Risk of Non-Approval of the Disclosure Statement as Containing Adequate Information

Because the Chapter 11 Cases have not yet been commenced, this Disclosure Statement has not, as of the date hereof, been approved by the Bankruptcy Court as containing “adequate information” within the meaning of section 1125(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. Upon filing, the Debtors will promptly seek entry of an order by the Bankruptcy Court approving this Disclosure Statement. While the Debtors believe that this Disclosure Statement provides “adequate information” within the meaning of section 1125(a), there can be no assurance that the Bankruptcy Court will reach the same conclusion.

iii.

Risk of Material Adverse Effect on Operations

The commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases could adversely affect the relationship between the Debtors and their customers, employees, vendors, lenders, partners and others. There is a risk, due to uncertainty about the Company’s future, that: (i) customers could seek alternative providers; (ii) customers’ confidence in the Debtors’ ability to provide products could erode and, as a result, there could be a significant and precipitous decline in revenues, profitability, and cash flow; (iii) it may be more difficult to attract or replace employees; (iv) employees could be distracted from performance of their duties or more easily attracted to other career opportunities; (v) suppliers, vendors, and service providers could terminate their relationship with the Debtors or require financial assurances or enhanced performance; and (vi) additional involvement by regulatory, taxing, and other authorities may increase the administrative burden on the Debtors and their operations. These factors could adversely affect the Debtors’ ability to obtain confirmation of the Plan.

iv.

Risk Related to Obtaining First Day Relief

The Debtors have tried to address potential concerns of key customers, vendors, employees, and other key parties in interest that might arise through a variety of provisions incorporated into or contemplated by the Plan, including the Debtors’ intention to seek appropriate court orders to ensure a seamless transition between the Debtors’ prepetition and postpetition business operations. However, there can be no guaranty that the Debtors will be successful in obtaining the necessary approvals of the Bankruptcy Court for such relief, and as a result, the Debtors’ business might suffer.

Risk of Non-Confirmation of the Plan

Although the Debtors believe that the Plan will satisfy all requirements necessary for confirmation by the Bankruptcy Court, there can be no assurance that the Bankruptcy Court will reach the same conclusion or that modifications to the Plan will not be required for confirmation or that such modifications would not necessitate re-solicitation of votes on the Plan. Moreover, the Debtors can make no assurances that they will receive the requisite votes for acceptance to confirm the Plan or satisfy all of the conditions for confirmation required under the Plan. Even if all Voting Classes

vote in favor of the Plan or the requirements for “cramdown” are met with respect to any Class that rejected the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court could decline to confirm the Plan if it finds that any of the statutory requirements for confirmation are not met. If the Plan is not confirmed, it is unclear what distributions holders of Claims or Interests ultimately would receive with respect to their Claims or Interests in a subsequent plan of reorganization or otherwise. Non-confirmation of the Plan could result in protracted chapter 11 cases, which could significantly and detrimentally impact the Debtors’ relationships with vendors, suppliers, employees, and major customers. In such circumstances, the Debtors may no longer have consent to use Cash Collateral, and even if they do, there likely would be a significant strain on liquidity and the Debtors may be forced to seek postpetition financing. There is no guarantee that such funding would be available or on what terms.

vi.

Severability of the Plan

The Debtors cannot guarantee that the Bankruptcy Court will approve every provision of the Plan, and certain provisions may be modified or removed, while the rest of the Plan will be confirmed.

vii.

Risk of Failing to Satisfy the Vote Requirement

In the event that the Debtors are unable to get sufficient votes from the Classes that are entitled to vote on the Plan, the Debtors may seek to accomplish an alternative chapter 11 plan or seek to cram down the Plan on non-accepting Classes. There can be no assurance that the terms of any such alternative chapter 11 plan would be similar or as favorable to holders of Allowed Claims as those proposed in the Plan.

viii.

Non-Consensual Confirmation

If any impaired class of claims or equity interests does not accept or is deemed not to accept a plan of reorganization, a bankruptcy court may nevertheless confirm such plan at the proponent’s request if at least one impaired class has voted to accept the plan (with such acceptance being determined without including the vote of any “insider” in such class), and as to each impaired class that has not accepted the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court determines that the plan “does not discriminate unfairly” and is “fair and equitable” with respect to the dissenting impaired classes. If any Class votes to reject the plan, then these requirements must be satisfied with respect to such rejecting Classes. The Debtors believe that the Plan satisfies these requirements.

ix.

Risk Related to Parties in Interest Objecting to the Debtors’ Classification of Claims and Interests

Section 1122 of the Bankruptcy Code provides that a plan may place a claim or an interest in a particular class only if such claim or interest is substantially similar to the other claims or interests in such class. The Debtors believe that the classification of Claims and Interests under the Plan complies with the requirements set forth in the Bankruptcy Code. However, there can be no assurance that a party in interest will not object or that the Bankruptcy Court will approve the classifications.

Risk of Non-Occurrence of the Effective Date

Although the Debtors believe that the Effective Date will occur soon after the Confirmation Date, there can be no assurance as to the timing of the Effective Date. If the conditions precedent to the Effective Date set forth in the Plan have not occurred or have not been waived as set forth in Article IX of the Plan, then the Confirmation Order may be vacated, in which event no distributions would be made under the Plan, the Debtors and all holders of Claims or Interests would be restored to the status quo as of the day immediately preceding the Confirmation Date, and the Debtors’ obligations with respect to Claims and Interests would remain unchanged. Nonoccurrence of the Effective Date could result in substantial changes to the Plan and protracted chapter 11 cases, which could significantly and detrimentally impact the Debtors’ relationships with vendors, suppliers, employees, and major customers. In such circumstances, the Debtors may no longer have consent to use Cash Collateral, and even if they do, there likely would be a significant strain on liquidity and the Debtors may be forced to seek postpetition financing. There is no guarantee that such funding would be available or on what terms.

xi.

Risk of Termination of the Restructuring Support Agreement

The Restructuring Support Agreement contains certain provisions that give the Debtors and the Consenting Creditors (as defined in the Restructuring Support Agreement) the ability to terminate the Restructuring Support Agreement if various conditions are satisfied. Termination of the Restructuring Support Agreement could result in substantial changes to the Plan and protracted chapter 11 cases, which could significantly and detrimentally impact the Debtors’ relationships with vendors, suppliers, employees, and major customers. In such circumstances, the Debtors may no longer have consent to use Cash Collateral, and the Debtors may be forced to seek postpetition financing. There is no guarantee that such funding would be available or on what terms.

xii.

Conversion into Chapter 7 Cases

If no plan of reorganization can be confirmed, or if the Bankruptcy Court otherwise finds that it would be in the best interest of holders of Claims and Interests, the Chapter 11 Cases may be converted to cases under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, pursuant to which a trustee would be appointed or elected to liquidate the Debtors’ assets for distribution in accordance with the priorities established by the Bankruptcy Code. Please refer to section XII.C hereof, as well as the Liquidation Analysis attached hereto as Exhibit D, for a discussion of the effects that a chapter 7 liquidation would have on the recoveries of holders of Claims and Interests.

xiii.

Risks Related to Possible Objections to the Plan

There is a risk that certain parties could oppose and object to either the entirety of the Plan or specific provisions of the Plan. Although the Debtors believe that the Plan complies with all relevant Bankruptcy Code provisions, there can be no guarantee that a party in interest will not file an objection to the Plan or that the Bankruptcy Court will not sustain such an objection.

xiv.

Releases, Injunctions, and Exculpations Provisions May Not Be Approved

Article X of the Plan provides for certain releases, injunctions, and exculpations for Claims and Causes of Action that may otherwise be asserted against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Exculpated Parties, or the Released Parties, as applicable. The releases, injunctions, and exculpations provided in the Plan are subject to objection by parties in interest and may not be approved. If the releases and exculpations are not approved, certain parties may not be considered Releasing Parties, Released Parties, or Exculpated Parties, and certain Released Parties or Exculpated Parties may withdraw their support for the Plan.

xv.

Failure to Secure Necessary Governmental Approvals

Although the Debtors believe that they will be able to secure the necessary government approvals to consummate the Restructuring Transactions, the Debtors are not certain whether certain governmental agencies, including the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States or other antitrust, merger control, and foreign investment authorities will approve the consummation of the Restructuring Transactions or any material portion thereof. The Debtors also are not certain whether any such governmental agencies will take action to suspend or prohibit the Restructuring Transactions or any material portion thereof. Any delay in consummating the Restructuring Transactions due to governmental approval processes, or the failure to obtain such approvals, could prolong the Chapter 11 Cases and reduce recoveries available to creditors.

Additional Factors Affecting the Value of Reorganized Debtors

Claims Could Be More than Projected

There can be no assurance that the estimated Allowed amount of Claims in certain Classes will not be significantly more than projected, which, in turn, could reduce the value of distributions substantially. Inevitably, some assumptions will not materialize, and unanticipated events and circumstances may affect the ultimate results. Therefore, the actual amount of Allowed Claims may vary from the Debtors’ projections and feasibility analysis, and the variation may be material.

ii.

Projections and Other Forward-Looking Statements Are Not Assured, and Actual Results May Vary

Certain of the information contained in this Disclosure Statement is, by nature, forward-looking, and contains estimates and assumptions which might ultimately prove to be incorrect, and contains projections that may differ materially from actual future experiences. There are uncertainties associated with any projections and estimates, and they should not be considered assurances or guarantees of the amount of funds or the amount of Claims in the various Classes that might be Allowed.

The Debtors have prepared financial projections (the “Financial Projections”) on a consolidated basis based on certain assumptions, as set forth in Exhibit E hereto. The Financial Projections have not been compiled, audited, or examined by independent accountants, and neither the Debtors nor their advisors make any representations or warranties regarding the accuracy of the Financial Projections or the ability to achieve forecasted results.

Many of the assumptions underlying the Financial Projections are subject to uncertainties that are beyond the control of the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors including the timing, confirmation, and consummation of the Plan, demand or price for services, inflation, and other unanticipated market and economic conditions. Some assumptions may not materialize, and unanticipated events and circumstances may affect the actual results. Projections are inherently subject to substantial and numerous uncertainties and to a wide variety of significant business, economic, and competitive risks, and the assumptions underlying the Financial Projections may be inaccurate in material respects. In addition, unanticipated events and circumstances occurring after the approval of this Disclosure Statement by the Bankruptcy Court, including any natural disasters, terrorist attacks, or health epidemics, may affect the actual financial results achieved. Such results may vary significantly from the forecasts and such variations may be material.

iii.

Risks Associated with Debtors’ Business and Industry and Financial Conditions¹⁴

(a)

Risks Associated with Potential Litigation, Including Litigation Arising Out of the Chapter 11 Cases

In the future, the Reorganized Debtors may become parties to litigation. In general, litigation can be expensive and time consuming to bring or defend against. Such litigation could result in settlements or damages that could significantly affect the Reorganized Debtors’ financial results. It is also possible that certain parties will commence litigation with respect to the treatment of their Claims under the Plan. It is not possible to predict the potential litigation that the Reorganized Debtors may become party to, nor the final resolution of such litigation. The impact of any such litigation on the Reorganized Debtors’ businesses and financial stability, however, could be material.

(b)

Risks Associated with the Loss of Key Personnel

The Debtors’ operations are dependent on a relatively small group of key management personnel. The Debtors’ recent liquidity issues and the Chapter 11 Cases have created distractions and uncertainty for key management personnel and employees. As a result, the Debtors may experience increased levels of employee attrition. Because competition for experienced personnel can be significant, the Debtors may be unable to find acceptable replacements with comparable skills and experience, and the loss of such key management personnel could adversely affect the Debtors’ ability to operate their businesses. In addition, a loss of key personnel or material erosion of employee morale could have a material adverse effect on the Debtors’ ability to meet expectations, thereby adversely affecting the Debtors’ businesses and the results of operations.

¹⁴	Please refer to Wolfspeed, Inc.’s 10-Q Quarterly Report filed on May 9, 2025 for additional information on risk factors.

(c)

Risks Associated with Governmental Laws and Regulations

The Company’s operations are subject to federal, state, local, foreign and international laws and regulations regulating the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment. Such laws include statutory and regulatory provisions under which the Debtors are responsible for the management of hazardous materials they use and the disposition of hazardous waste resulting from the Debtors’ manufacturing processes. Failure to comply with such provisions could result in fines and other liabilities to the government or third parties, injunctions requiring the Debtors to suspend or curtail operations or other remedies, and could have a material adverse effect on the Debtors’ business.

(d)

Risks Associated with Macroeconomic Conditions

The Debtors’ business operations have historically been, and the Reorganized Debtors’ business operations may in the future be, materially affected by adverse conditions in the financial markets and depressed economic conditions generally, both in the United States and elsewhere around the world.

Uncertainty about global economic conditions could result in customers postponing purchases of the Debtors’ products and services in response to uncertain global trade conditions, tighter credit, unemployment, negative financial news, higher interest rates and/or declines in income or asset values and other macroeconomic factors, which could have a material negative effect on demand for the Debtors’ products and services and, accordingly, on the Debtors’ business, results of operations, or financial condition. For example, current global financial markets continue to reflect uncertainty, including as a result of the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, as well as a slowdown of the economy in China, which could impact demand for the Debtors’ products used in industrial and energy applications. Given these uncertainties, there could be further disruptions to the global economy, financial markets and consumer confidence. If economic conditions deteriorate unexpectedly, the Debtors’ business and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. Moreover, the Debtors’ customers, including distributors and their customers, may experience difficulty obtaining the working capital and other financing necessary to support historical or projected purchasing patterns, which could result in decreased relative and absolute margins for the Debtors.

(e)

Risks Associated with Sales, Product Development, and Manufacturing

The Debtors’ business depends significantly on management of costs and investments. Investments such as new manufacturing facilities take time to become fully operational, and the Debtors may not be able to expand quickly enough to exploit targeted market opportunities. Additionally, the establishment and operation of a new manufacturing facility or expansion of an existing facility involves significant risks and challenges, including construction delays, cost overruns, reduced quality control, and equipment issues.

The Debtors depend on a number of sole source and limited source suppliers for certain raw materials, components, services and equipment used in manufacturing their products, including key materials and equipment used in critical stages of the Debtors’ manufacturing processes. Shortages of such supplies or variations from the specified materials could cause disruptions to the Debtors’ business and negatively impact revenue.

The semiconductor industry is characterized by rapid technological change, high capital expenditures, short product life cycles and continuous advancements in process technologies and manufacturing facilities. The industry sometimes experiences fluctuations involving lower product demand, production overcapacity, higher inventory levels and aggressive pricing actions by the Debtors’ competitors. Such conditions could have a material negative impact on the Debtors’ business, results of operations, or financial condition.

(f)

Risks Associated with Acquisition of Companies, Products, or Technologies

The Debtors have acquired and may continue to acquire companies, products, and technologies that complement their strategic direction. Acquisitions involve significant risks and uncertainties, including: inability to successfully integrate the acquired technology and operations into the Debtors’ business and maintain uniform standards, controls, policies, and procedures; inability to realize synergies expected to result from an acquisition; challenges retaining the key employees, customers, resellers and other business partners of the acquired operation; and the internal control environment of an acquired entity may not be consistent with the Debtors’ standards and may require significant time and resources to improve.

Acquisitions and divestitures are inherently risky. The Debtors’ transactions may not be successful and may, in some cases, harm operating results or their financial condition. In addition, if the Debtors use debt to fund acquisitions or for other purposes, their interest expense and leverage may significantly increase. If the Debtors issue equity securities as consideration in an acquisition, current shareholders’ percentage ownership and earnings per share may be diluted.

In addition, from time to time, the Debtors may undertake internal restructurings and other initiatives intended to reduce expenses. These initiatives may not lead to the benefits the Debtors expect, may be disruptive to the Debtors’ personnel and operations, and may require substantial management time and attention. Moreover, the Debtors could encounter delays in executing their plans, which could entail further disruption and associated costs. If these disruptions result in a decline in productivity of the Debtors’ personnel, negative impacts on operations, or if they experience unanticipated expenses associated with these initiatives, the Debtors’ business and operating results may be harmed.

(g)

Risks Associated with Retaining or Attracting Customers

The Debtors’ future revenue is dependent in large part upon the retention and growth of their existing customer base, in terms of customers continuing to purchase products, including renewals of current contracts. The Debtors receive a significant amount of their revenue from a limited number of customers and distributors, two of which individually represented more than 10% of the Debtors’ consolidated revenue in 2024. Many of the Debtors’ customer orders are made on a purchase order basis, and such customers may decide not to purchase additional products from the Debtors in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on the Debtors’ business and results of operations. In such cases, there can be no assurance that the Debtors will be able to retain their current customers.

A variety of factors could affect the Debtors’ ability to successfully retain and attract customers, including the level of demand for their products, the quality of the Debtors’ customer service, the Debtors’ ability to update their products and develop new products needed by customers, and the Debtors’ ability to integrate and manage any acquired businesses. Further, the semiconductor industry is highly competitive, and the Debtors may not be able to compete effectively.

(h)

Risks Associated with Cybersecurity Attacks

In the ordinary course of business, the Debtors have relied, and the Reorganized Debtors will continue to rely, upon information systems, some of which are managed by third parties, to process, transmit and store digital information, and to manage or support a variety of business processes and activities, including supply chain, manufacturing, distribution, invoicing, and collection of payments from customers. The secure operation of such systems and the processing and maintenance of this information is critical to business operations and strategy. Despite actions to mitigate or eliminate risk, the Debtors’ information systems may be vulnerable to damage, disruptions or shutdowns due to the activity of hackers, employee error or malfeasance, or other disruptions, including power outages, telecommunication or utility failures, natural disasters, or other catastrophic events. The occurrence of any of these events could compromise the Debtors’ information systems, and the information stored there (including customer information) could be accessed, publicly disclosed, lost, or stolen. Any such access, disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability or regulatory penalties under laws protecting the privacy of personal information, disruption of operations, and damage to the Debtors’ reputation, all of which could adversely affect their business, financial condition and results of operations.

(i)

Risks Associated with Intellectual Property

The Debtors own intellectual property, namely patents. Licensing activities and lawsuits to enforce intellectual property rights, particularly patent rights, are a common aspect of the semiconductor industry. In the ordinary course of business, the Debtors both make and receive inquiries regarding possible patent infringements and possible violations of other intellectual property rights. Patent litigation is expensive and the outcome is often uncertain, which could materially adversely affect the Debtors’ businesses, results of operations, and financial condition.

(j)

Risks Associated with Accurate Reporting of Financial Results

The Debtors have established internal controls over financial reporting. However, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements or omissions in the Debtors’ financial statements because of their inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error, and the circumvention or overriding of controls or fraud. Therefore, even effective internal controls can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements. If the Debtors fail to maintain the adequacy of their internal controls, the Debtors may be unable to provide financial information in a timely and reliable manner within the time periods required under the terms of the agreements governing the Debtors’ indebtedness. Any such difficulties or failure could materially adversely affect the Debtors’ business, results of operations, and financial condition. Further, the Debtors may discover other internal control deficiencies in the future and/or fail to adequately correct previously identified control deficiencies, which could materially adversely affect the Debtors’ businesses, results of operations, and financial condition.

iv.

Transfers or Issuances of the Debtors’ Equity, Before or in Connection with Their Chapter 11 Proceedings, May Impair Their Ability to Utilize Their Federal Income Tax Net Operating Loss Carryforwards in Future Years

Under U.S. federal income tax law, a corporation is generally permitted to deduct from taxable income net operating losses carried forward from prior years. The Debtors’ consolidated group for U.S. federal income tax purposes of which Wolfspeed is the parent had consolidated NOLs and NOL carryforwards of approximately $2.4 billion as of June 30, 2024. The Debtors believe that their consolidated group likely generated additional NOLs for the 2025 tax year. The Debtors’ ability to utilize their NOL carryforwards to offset future taxable income and to reduce their U.S. federal income tax liability is subject to certain requirements and restrictions. If Wolfspeed experiences an “ownership change,” as defined in section 382 of the Tax Code, the Debtors’ ability to use their NOL carryforwards may be substantially limited, which could increase the taxes paid by the Debtors and have a negative impact on their after-tax cash flow, financial position and results of operations. Generally, there is an “ownership change” if one or more stockholders owning 5% or more of a corporation’s common stock have aggregate increases in their ownership of such stock of more than 50 percentage points over the prior three-year period. Under section 382 of the Tax Code, absent an applicable exception, if a corporation undergoes an “ownership change,” the amount of its NOLs that may be utilized to offset future table income generally is subject to an annual limitation. Even if the NOL carryforwards are subject to limitation under section 382 of the Tax Code, the NOLs can be further reduced by the amount of discharge of indebtedness arising in a chapter 11 case under section 108 of the Tax Code.

Following the implementation of a plan of reorganization, it is likely that an “ownership change” will be deemed to occur and the Debtors’ NOLs will be subject to annual limitation.

Golden Parachute Deduction Limitation

In connection with the transactions described in the Plan and Disclosure Statement, some or all of the payments and benefits (including potential severance benefits, as applicable) to certain employees and other disqualified individuals may not be deductible for federal income tax purposes as a result of such payments being “excess parachute payments” under section 280G of the Tax Code.

Factors Relating to New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering

Debtors Could Modify the New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering Procedures

The Debtors may modify the New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering Procedures, with the approval of the Requisite Commitment Parties (as defined in the Backstop Agreement) to, among other things, adopt additional detailed procedures if necessary in the Debtors’ business judgment. Such modifications may adversely affect the rights of those participating in the New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering.

ii.

Bankruptcy Court Might Not Approve the Backstop Agreement, New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering Procedures, or New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering Documents

The Bankruptcy Court’s entry of the Backstop Order is crucial to consummating the Restructuring contemplated by the Plan. Failure to obtain the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the Backstop Agreement, the New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering Procedures, and any other New 2L Convertible Notes Rights Offering Documents could prevent the Debtors from consummating the Plan and the transactions contemplated thereby.

iii.

Backstop Agreement Could Be Terminated

The Backstop Agreement contains certain provisions that give the parties thereto the ability to terminate the Backstop Agreement if various conditions are not satisfied. Termination of the Backstop Agreement could result in termination of the Restructuring Support Agreement and prevent the Debtors from consummating the Plan.

Factors Relating to the Capital Structure of the Reorganized Debtors

Variances from Financial Projections

The Debtors have prepared financial projections on a consolidated basis with respect to the Reorganized Debtors based on certain assumptions as set forth in Exhibit E hereto. The projections have not been compiled, audited, or examined by independent accountants, and neither the Debtors nor their advisors make any representations or warranties regarding the accuracy of the projections or the ability to achieve forecasted results.

Many of the assumptions underlying the projections are subject to significant uncertainties that are beyond the control of the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, including the timing, confirmation, and consummation of the Plan, consumer demands for the Reorganized Debtors’ products, macroeconomic, political and other events that may affect the Reorganized Debtors’ ability to maintain adequate amounts and array of inventory, inflation, and other unanticipated market and economic conditions. Some assumptions may not materialize, and unanticipated events and circumstances may affect the actual results. Projections are inherently subject to substantial and numerous uncertainties and to a wide variety of significant business, economic, and competitive risks, and the assumptions underlying the projections may be inaccurate in material respects.

In addition, if the Debtors emerge from chapter 11, the amounts reported in subsequent consolidated financial statements may materially change relative to historical consolidated financial statements, including as a result of revisions to the Debtors’ operating plans pursuant to a plan of reorganization. The Reorganized Debtors also may be required to adopt “fresh start” accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 852 (“Reorganizations”), in which case their assets and liabilities will be recorded at fair value as of the fresh start reporting date, which may differ materially from the recorded values of assets and liabilities on the Debtors’ consolidated balance sheets. The Reorganized Debtors’ financial results after the application of fresh start accounting also may be different from historical trends. The Financial Projections contained in Exhibit E hereto do not currently reflect the impact of fresh start accounting, which may have a material impact on the Financial Projections.

ii.

Leverage

Although the Reorganized Debtors will have less indebtedness than the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors will still have a significant amount of secured and unsecured indebtedness. On the Effective Date, after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Plan, the Reorganized Debtors will have approximately $2,118 million in funded indebtedness.

The degree to which the Reorganized Debtors will be leveraged could have important consequences, placing the Reorganized Debtors at a competitive disadvantage to other, less leveraged competitors, because, among other things: it could affect the Reorganized Debtors’ ability to satisfy their obligations under their indebtedness following the Effective Date; a portion of the Reorganized Debtors’ cash flow from operations will be used for debt service and therefore will be unavailable to support operations or for working capital, capital expenditures, expansion, acquisitions or general corporate or other purposes; the Reorganized Debtors’ ability to refinance their then-existing debt, obtain additional debt financing or equity financing, or pursue mergers, acquisitions and asset sales, on terms acceptable to them or at all, may be limited and their costs of borrowing may be increased; as a result of their indebtedness, the Reorganized Debtors may be more vulnerable to economic downturns and their ability to withstand competitive pressures may be limited; and the Reorganized Debtors’ operational flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes, opportunities and challenges in their businesses, including changes in the market sector in which they compete, changes in their business and strategic opportunities, and adverse developments in their operations, may be severely limited.

iii.

Ability to Service Debt

Although the Reorganized Debtors will have less indebtedness than the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors will still have significant interest expense and principal repayment obligations. The Reorganized Debtors’ ability to make payments on and to refinance their debt will depend on their future financial and operating performance and their ability to generate cash in the future. This, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, business, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond the control of the Reorganized Debtors.

Although the Debtors believe the Plan is feasible, there can be no assurance that the Reorganized Debtors will be able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that sufficient future borrowings will be available to pay off the Reorganized Debtors’ debt obligations. The Reorganized Debtors may need to refinance all or a portion of their debt on or before maturity; however, there can be no assurance that the Reorganized Debtors will be able to refinance any of their debt on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

If the Reorganized Debtors’ cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to fund their debt service obligations and other cash requirements, the Reorganized Debtors could face substantial liquidity problems and could be forced to reduce or delay investments and capital expenditures or to sell assets or operations, seek additional capital or restructure or refinance their indebtedness and settlement obligations. The Reorganized Debtors may not be able to effect any such alternative measures, if necessary, on commercially reasonable terms or at all and, even if successful, such alternative actions may not allow the Reorganized Debtors to meet their scheduled debt service obligations and settlement obligations. The agreements governing the Reorganized Debtors’ indebtedness at emergence are expected to (a) have terms and conditions that restrict their ability to dispose of assets and the use of proceeds from any such dispositions and (b) restrict their ability to raise debt capital.

The Reorganized Debtors’ inability to generate sufficient cash flows to satisfy their debt obligations, or to refinance their indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms or at all, would materially and adversely affect their financial position and results of operations.

If the Reorganized Debtors cannot make scheduled payments on their debt, an event of default may result. An event of default may allow the creditors to accelerate the related debt as well as any other debt to which a cross-acceleration or cross-default provision applies. If the Reorganized Debtors are unable to repay amounts outstanding under their financing agreements when due, the lenders thereunder could, subject to the terms of the financing agreements, seek to foreclose on the collateral that is pledged to secure the indebtedness outstanding under such facility.

iv.

Obligations Under New Notes Documents

The Reorganized Debtors’ obligations under the New Notes Documents are expected to be secured by liens on substantially all of the assets of the Reorganized Debtors (subject to certain exclusions set forth therein). If the Reorganized Debtors become insolvent or are liquidated, or if there is a default under certain financing agreements, including, but not limited to, the New Notes Documents, and payment on any obligation thereunder is accelerated, the holders of the New Notes would be entitled, subject to the applicable intercreditor agreements and other applicable credit documents, to exercise the remedies available to a secured creditor under applicable law, including foreclosure on the collateral that is pledged to secure the indebtedness thereunder, and they would have a claim on the assets securing the obligations under the applicable facility that would be superior to any claim of the holders of unsecured debt of the obligors of the New Notes.

Restrictive Covenants

The financing agreements governing the Reorganized Debtors’ indebtedness are expected to contain various covenants that may limit the discretion of the Reorganized Debtors’ management by restricting the Reorganized Debtors’ ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, incur liens, pay dividends or make certain restricted payments, make acquisitions and investments, consummate certain asset sales, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, or merge, consolidate or sell or dispose of all or substantially all of their assets. As a result of these covenants, the Reorganized Debtors will be limited in the manner in which they conduct their business and may be unable to engage in favorable business activities or finance future operations or capital needs.

Any failure to comply with the restrictions of the financing agreements may result in an event of default under such financial agreements. An event of default under a financing agreement may allow the creditors under such financing agreement to accelerate the related debt as well as allow the creditors under any other debt to which a cross-acceleration or cross-default provision applies to accelerate such debt as well. If the Reorganized Debtors are unable to repay amounts outstanding under their financing agreements when due, the creditor thereunder could, subject to the terms of the financing agreements, seek to foreclose on the collateral that is pledged to secure the indebtedness outstanding under such facility.

As a result of these restrictions, the Reorganized Debtors may be limited in how they conduct their business, unable to raise additional debt or equity financing to operate during general economic or business downturns, unable to respond to changing circumstances or to pursue business strategies and unable to compete effectively, execute their growth strategy or take advantage of new business opportunities.

vi.

Additional Financing

The Reorganized Debtors may be able to incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future. Although agreements governing the Reorganized Debtors’ indebtedness are expected to restrict the incurrence of additional indebtedness, these restrictions are and will be subject to a number of qualifications and exceptions and the additional indebtedness incurred in compliance with these restrictions could be substantial. If new debt is added to the Reorganized Debtors’ current debt levels, the related risks that the Reorganized Debtors face could intensify.

Moreover, the Reorganized Debtors may need to seek additional financing for general corporate purposes. For example, they may need funds to make acquisitions or for capital expenditures or operating expenses needed to remain competitive in their market sector. The Reorganized Debtors may be unable to obtain any desired additional financing on terms that are favorable or acceptable to them, including as a result of their debt levels or if there is a decline in the demand for their products or in the solvency of their customers, vendors or suppliers or other significantly unfavorable changes in economic conditions occur. Depending on market conditions, adequate funds may not be available to the Reorganized Debtors on acceptable terms or at all, and they may be unable to fund expansion, successfully develop or enhance products, or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Reorganized Debtors’ competitive position, business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Factors Relating to Securities to Be Issued Under Plan

Market for Securities

There is currently no public market for the New Common Stock. The Reorganized Debtors intend to list the New Common Stock on Nasdaq, the New York Stock Exchange, or a comparable nationally recognized securities exchange following the Effective Date. In such event, the Debtor makes no assurance that it will be able to obtain a listing or, even if the Debtor is able to do so, that liquid trading markets for shares of New Common Stock will develop. The liquidity of any market for shares of New Common Stock will depend upon, among other things, the number of holders of shares of New Common Stock, the Reorganized Debtors’ financial performance, and the market for similar securities, none of which can be determined or predicted. Additionally, market conditions and regulatory changes could impact the ability to list and maintain a listing on a national securities exchange, further affecting liquidity and trading dynamics. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that active trading markets for New Common Stock will develop, nor can any assurance be given as to the liquidity or prices at which such securities might be traded. In the event active trading markets do not develop or are not maintained, holders of the New Common

Stock may experience substantial difficulty in transferring or reselling such securities or may be unable to transfer or sell them at all. Even if such a market were to exist, such securities could trade at prices higher or lower than the estimated value set forth in this Disclosure Statement depending upon many factors, including prevailing interest rates, markets for similar securities, industry conditions, and the performance of, and investor expectations for, the Reorganized Debtors. Accordingly, holders of the New Common Stock may bear certain risks associated with holding securities for an indefinite period of time.

If the New Common Stock is delisted in the future based on a continued listing requirement, it is unlikely that the Reorganized Debtors will be able to list New Common Stock on another national securities exchange and, as a result, securities may be quoted on an over-the-counter market. If this were to occur, the Reorganized Debtors and holders of New Common Stock could face significant material adverse consequences, including limited availability of market quotations and analyst coverage for New Common Stock, reduced liquidity for the trading of such stock, and increased transaction costs due to less transparency and higher bid-ask spreads typically associated with over-the-counter markets. Delisting also could result in, among other things, a loss of investor confidence or interest in strategic transactions or opportunities, the Reorganized Debtors being subject to regulation in each state in which the Reorganized Debtors offers securities, and difficulty in recruiting and retaining personnel through equity incentive awards. If a “fundamental change” occurs, including the delisting of the New Common Stock, holders of the New 2L Convertible Notes or New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes will have the right to require the Reorganized Debtors to repurchase these notes at a price equal to par plus accrued and unpaid interest, subject to the terms of the applicable intercreditor agreement(s).

In addition, there is currently no established trading market for the New Senior Secured Notes, New 2L Takeback Notes, the New 2L Convertible Notes, the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes, or the Renesas Warrants. We do not intend to apply for listing of the New Senior Secured Notes, the New 2L Takeback Notes, the New 2L Convertible Notes, the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes and the Renesas Warrants on any securities exchange or recognized trading system. Without an active market, the liquidity of the New Senior Secured Notes, the New 2L Takeback Notes, the New 2L Convertible Notes, the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes and the Renesas Warrants will be limited.

ii.

Potential Dilution

The ownership percentage represented by the New Common Stock issued or deemed to be issued on the Effective Date under the Plan will be subject to dilution from the equity issued in connection with the Renesas Warrants, the New 2L Convertible Notes, the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes and the Management Incentive Plan, the Long Term Incentive Plan and the conversion of any options, warrants, convertible securities, exercisable securities, or other securities that may be issued post-emergence. In the future, similar to all companies, additional equity financings or other share issuances by any of the Reorganized Debtors could adversely affect the value of the New Common Stock issuable upon such conversion. The amount and dilutive effect of any of the foregoing could be material.

iii.

Compliance with Terms of the New Senior Secured Notes, the New 2L Takeback Notes, the New 2L Convertible Notes and the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes

The Plan provides that the Debtors will issue the New Senior Secured Notes, the New 2L Takeback Notes, the New 2L Convertible Notes and the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes. The Debtors believe that they will have sufficient cash flow to make all required interest payments on the New Senior Secured Notes, the New 2L Takeback Notes, the New 2L Convertible Notes and the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes. If the Debtors’ actual financial performance does not meet their cash flow projections, however, and if other sources of liquidity are not available, there is a risk that the Debtors might be unable to pay interest and principal payments on the New Senior Secured Notes, the New 2L Takeback Notes, the New 2L Convertible Notes and the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes. Additionally, the New Senior Secured Notes, the New 2L Takeback Notes, the New 2L Convertible Notes, and the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes will contain restrictive covenants that could limit the Debtors’ ability to operate their business flexibly, affecting strategic decisions, capital expenditures, and overall financial performance. Such covenants may include restrictions on incurring additional debt, granting liens, making certain acquisitions and investments, making certain dispositions, making dividends, stock repurchases and other restricted payments or engaging in specific transactions, which could impact the Company’s growth and operational efficiency.

iv.

Significant Holders

Certain holders of Convertible Notes Claims and the Renesas Claims are expected to, or have the ability to, acquire a significant ownership interest in the New Common Stock pursuant to the Plan. Should these holders act collectively, these holders may, among other things, exercise a controlling influence over the Reorganized Debtors and have the power to elect directors and approve significant transactions. This concentration of ownership could also facilitate or hinder a negotiated change of control of the Reorganized Debtors and, consequently, have an impact upon the value of the New Common Stock. The significant ownership stake may allow these holders, should they act collectively, to appoint a majority of the board of directors, potentially influencing the Company’s management and strategic direction. This could lead to changes in corporate governance practices, business strategies, and capital allocation policies that align with the interests of the major shareholders. The concentrated ownership might also affect the liquidity of the New Common Stock in the market, potentially impacting its trading price and volatility. The interests of these significant holders may not always align with those of other shareholders or the Reorganized Debtors, potentially leading to conflicts in decision-making. Lastly, this ownership structure could either attract potential acquirers due to the ease of negotiating with a small group of major shareholders or deter them if the Holders are not interested in selling their stakes.

Equity Interests Subordinated to Reorganized Debtors’ Indebtedness

In any subsequent liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Reorganized Debtors, the New Common Stock would rank below all debt claims against the Reorganized Debtors. As a result, holders of the New Common Stock will not be entitled to receive any payment or other distribution of assets upon the liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Reorganized Debtors until after all the Reorganized Debtors’ debt obligations have been satisfied.

vi.

Implied Value Not Intended to Represent Trading Value of New Common Stock

The valuation of the Reorganized Debtors is not intended to represent the trading value of New Common Stock in public or private markets and is subject to additional uncertainties and contingencies, all of which are difficult to predict. Actual market prices of such securities at issuance will depend upon, among other things: (i) prevailing interest rates; (ii) conditions in the financial markets; (iii) the anticipated initial securities of creditors receiving New Common Stock under the Plan, some of which may prefer to liquidate their investment rather than hold it on a long-term basis; and (iv) other factors that generally influence the prices of securities. The actual market prices of the New Common Stock are likely to be volatile. Many factors, including factors unrelated to the Reorganized Debtors’ actual operating performance and other factors not possible to predict, could cause the market prices of the New Common Stock to rise and fall. Accordingly, the implied value, stated herein and in the Plan, of the securities to be issued does not necessarily reflect, and should not be construed as reflecting, values that will be attained for the New Common Stock in the public or private markets.

vii.

Certain Holders of Securities May Be Restricted in Their Ability to Transfer or Sell Their Securities

To the extent that securities issued under the Plan are done so in reliance on the exemption from registration under section 1145(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, such securities may be resold by the holders thereof without registration under the Securities Act unless the holder is an “underwriter,” as defined in section 1145(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to such securities. Resales by holders of Claims who 1145 Securities pursuant to the Plan that are deemed to be “underwriters” would not be exempted by section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code from registration under the Securities Act or applicable law. In addition, certain securities under the Plan will be issued pursuant to other exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including pursuant to section 4(a)(2) thereof and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder, and such securities will be “restricted” securities under applicable securities laws, and subject to comparable restrictions on transferability. Holders of securities not exempted by section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code, including the foregoing restricted securities, would only be permitted to sell such securities without registration if they are able to comply with an applicable exemption from registration, including Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Additionally, to the extent any holder is deemed an “affiliate” of the Reorganized Debtors, the resale of any securities issued under section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code by that holder will be subject to the “control securities” restrictions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

The securities issued under the Plan will not initially be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and the Debtors make no representations regarding the right of any holder of such securities to freely resell such securities.

viii.

No Dividends

Reorganized Parent does not anticipate paying any dividends on the New Common Stock as it expects to retain any future cash flows for debt reduction and to support its operations. In addition, covenants in the documents governing the Reorganized Parent’s indebtedness may restrict its ability to pay cash dividends and may prohibit the payment of dividends and certain other payments. As a result, the success of an investment in the New Common Stock may depend entirely upon any future appreciation in the value of the New Common Stock. There is, however, no guarantee that the New Common Stock will appreciate in value or even maintain their initial value.

Additional Factors

Debtors Could Withdraw Plan

Subject to the terms of, and without prejudice to, the rights of any party to the Restructuring Support Agreement, including consent rights contained therein, the Plan may be revoked or withdrawn prior to the Confirmation Date by the Debtors.

ii.

VOTING PROCEDURES AND REQUIREMENTS

Before voting to accept or reject the Plan, each holder of a Claim or Interest entitled to vote on the Plan (a “Voting Party”) should carefully review the Plan attached hereto as Exhibit A. All descriptions of the Plan set forth in this Disclosure Statement are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. This Solicitation of votes to accept the Plan is beginning commencement before the Petition Date. This Disclosure Statement has not been approved by the Bankruptcy Court.

This Article is qualified in its entirety by the Emergency Motion of Debtors for an Order (I) Scheduling Combined Hearing on (A) Adequacy of Disclosure Statement, (B) Confirmation of Plan, and (C) Approval of Backstop Commitment Agreement; (II) Approving (A) Solicitation Procedures and (B) Form and Manner of Notice of Commencement, Combined Hearing, and Objection Deadline; (III) Fixing Deadline to Object to Disclosure Statement and Plan; (IV) Conditionally (A) Directing the United States Trustee Not to Convene Section 341 Meeting of Creditors and (B) Waiving Requirement to File Statements of Financial Affairs and Schedules of Assets and Liabilities, (V) Conditionally Approving the Disclosure Statement; and (VI) Granting Related Relief (the “Solicitation Motion”) to be filed on the Petition Date.

Voting Procedures

Voting Parties in each Class should provide all of the information requested by the applicable Ballot, and should complete and return all Ballots received in accordance with the instructions provided.

A Release Opt-Out Form or Ballot, as applicable, will be provided to you. The Release Opt-Out Form or Ballot, as applicable, will provide you with the option to not grant the releases contained in section 10.6(b) of the Plan. You must complete and timely return the Release Opt-Out Form or Ballot, as applicable, to the Solicitation Agent by the Voting Deadline in accordance with the instructions set forth in the Release Opt-Out Form or Ballot, as applicable, for your opt-out to be valid; OTHERWISE, YOU WILL BE DEEMED TO CONSENT TO AND BE BOUND BY THE RELEASES SET FORTH IN THE PLAN. Please review the additional information set forth in this Disclosure Statement, the Release Opt-Out Form or Ballot, as applicable, the Plan, and any other documents related to the Chapter 11 Cases that you may receive from time to time. Please be advised that your decision to opt out of the releases in section 10.6(b) does not affect the amount of distribution you will receive under the Plan.

Parties Entitled to Vote

Under the Bankruptcy Code, only holders of claims or interests in “impaired” classes are entitled to vote on a plan. Under section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code, a class of claims or interests is deemed to be “impaired” under a plan unless (i) the plan leaves unaltered the legal, equitable, and contractual rights to which such claim or interest entitles the holder thereof or (ii) notwithstanding any legal right to an accelerated payment of such claim or interest, the plan cures all existing defaults (other than defaults resulting from the occurrence of events of bankruptcy) and reinstates the maturity of such claim or interest as it existed before the default.

If, however, the holder of an impaired claim or interest will not receive or retain any distribution under the plan on account of such claim or interest, the Bankruptcy Code deems such holder to have rejected the plan, and, accordingly, holders of such claims and interests do not actually vote on the plan. If a claim or interest is not impaired by the plan, the Bankruptcy Code presumes the holder of such claim or interest to have accepted the plan and, accordingly, holders of such claims and interests are not entitled to vote on the Plan.

A vote may be disregarded if the Bankruptcy Court determines, pursuant to section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, that it was not solicited or procured in good faith or in accordance with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.

With respect to a class of claims, the Bankruptcy Code deems a class to have accepted the plan if votes to accept the plan are received by creditors holding at least two-thirds (2/3) in dollar amount and more than one-half (1/2) in number of the total claims in that class that cast ballots for acceptance or rejection of the plan. With respect to a class of interests, a class is considered to accept a plan if votes to accept the plan are received by interest holders holding at least two-thirds (2/3) in dollar amount of the total interests in that class that cast ballots for acceptance or rejection of the plan.

The Claims in the following classes are impaired under the Plan and entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan:

•

Class 3 — Senior Secured Notes Claims;

•

Class 4 — Convertible Notes Claims; and

•

Class 5 — Renesas Claims.

THE ONLY CLASSES OF CLAIMS THAT ARE IMPAIRED AND ENTITLED TO VOTE TO ACCEPT OR REJECT THE PLAN ARE CLASS 3 (SENIOR SECURED NOTES CLAIMS), CLASS 4 (CONVERTIBLE NOTES CLAIMS), AND CLASS 5 (RENESAS CLAIMS) (THE “VOTING CLASSES” OR “VOTING CLAIMS”).

EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED HEREIN OR AS MAY BE COMMUNICATED BY THE DEBTORS, THE SOLICITATION OF VOTES ON THE PLAN WITH RESPECT TO THE CLASS 3 CLAIMS, CLASS 4 CLAIMS AND CLASS 5 CLAIMS PRIOR TO THE FILING OF VOLUNTARY REORGANIZATION CASES UNDER CHAPTER 11 OF THE UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY CODE IS BEING MADE PURSUANT TO

EXEMPTIONS FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT, INCLUDING PURSUANT TO SECTION 4(A)(2) THEREOF, AND REGULATION S THEREUNDER AND APPLICABLE UNITED STATES STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND ONLY FROM HOLDERS OF SUCH CLAIMS WHO ARE ELIGIBLE HOLDERS.

Voting Deadline

Before voting to accept or reject the Plan, each Holder of a Claim in a Voting Class as of the Voting Record Date (each, a “Voting Holder”) should carefully review the Plan attached to the Disclosure Statement as Exhibit A. All descriptions of the Plan set forth in this Disclosure Statement are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan.

All Voting Holders have been sent a ballot to vote to accept or reject the Plan (the “Ballot”) together with this Disclosure Statement. Such Voting Holders should read the Ballot carefully and follow the instructions contained therein. Please use only the Ballot that accompanies this Disclosure Statement to cast your vote. Each Ballot contains detailed voting instructions and sets forth in detail, among other things, the deadlines, procedures, and instructions for voting to accept or reject the Plan, the Voting Record Date for voting purposes, and the applicable standards for tabulating Ballots.

Each Ballot also provides Voting Holders with the ability to opt out of certain of the releases contained in the Plan. To the extent a Voting Holder wishes to opt out of the identified releases, the Voting Holder must check the box on the Ballot indicating such Voting Holder is electing to opt out of the releases and follow the instructions on the applicable Ballot to properly submit their elections.

The Debtors have engaged Epiq Corporate Restructuring, LLC as their Solicitation Agent to assist in the transmission of voting materials and in the tabulation of votes with respect to the Plan. FOR YOUR VOTE TO BE COUNTED, YOUR BALLOT OR A MASTER BALLOT CAST ON YOUR BEHALF MUST BE RECEIVED BY THE SOLICITATION AGENT ON OR BEFORE THE VOTING DEADLINE OF 5:00 P.M. (CENTRAL TIME) ON AUGUST 22, 2025, UNLESS EXTENDED BY THE DEBTORS.

IF A BALLOT IS DAMAGED OR LOST, YOU MAY CONTACT THE SOLICITATION AGENT AT THE NUMBER SET FORTH BELOW TO RECEIVE A REPLACEMENT BALLOT. ANY BALLOT THAT IS EXECUTED AND RETURNED BUT WHICH DOES NOT INDICATE A VOTE FOR ACCEPTANCE OR REJECTION OF THE PLAN WILL NOT BE COUNTED.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS CONCERNING VOTING PROCEDURES, YOU MAY CONTACT THE SOLICITATION AGENT AT:

E-mail: balloting@epiqglobal.com (with a reference to “Wolfspeed Solicitation Inquiry” in the subject line)

Additional copies of this Disclosure Statement, the Plan, and the Plan Supplement (when filed) are available upon written request made to the Solicitation Agent, at the e-mail address set forth immediately above or at the following address:

Wolfspeed, Inc.

c/o Epiq Ballot Processing Center

10300 SW Allen Boulevard

Beaverton, OR 97005

ANY BALLOT THAT IS EXECUTED AND RETURNED BUT WHICH DOES NOT INDICATE EITHER AN ACCEPTANCE OR REJECTION OF THE PLAN WILL NOT BE COUNTED. OTHER THAN A CLASS 3 MASTER BALLOT OR A CLASS 4 MASTER BALLOT, ANY BALLOT THAT INDICATES BOTH AN ACCEPTANCE AND A REJECTION OF THE PLAN WILL NOT BE COUNTED. THE DEBTORS, IN THEIR SOLE DISCRETION, MAY REQUEST THAT THE SOLICITATION AGENT ATTEMPT TO CONTACT SUCH VOTERS TO CURE ANY SUCH DEFECTS IN THE BALLOTS. THE FAILURE TO VOTE DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A VOTE TO ACCEPT OR REJECT THE PLAN. AN OBJECTION TO THE CONFIRMATION OF THE PLAN, EVEN IF TIMELY SERVED, DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A VOTE TO ACCEPT OR REJECT THE PLAN.

Voting Procedures

The Debtors are providing copies of this Disclosure Statement (including all exhibits and appendices) and related materials and a Ballot to Voting Holders in Class 3, Class 4, and Class 5. Voting Holders in Class 3, Class 4, and Class 5 who have not received a Ballot should contact the Solicitation Agent.

Voting Holders in Class 3, Class 4, and Class 5 should provide all of the information requested by the Ballot, and should complete and return all Ballots in accordance with the instructions provided.

Miscellaneous

All Ballots must be signed by the Voting Holder, or any person who has obtained a properly completed Ballot proxy from the Voting Holder by the Voting Record Date. Unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, Ballots that are signed, dated, and timely received, but on which a vote to accept or reject the Plan has not been indicated, will not be counted. Other than Class 3 Master Ballots or Class 4 Master Ballots, any Ballot marked to both accept and reject the Plan will not be counted. If a Voting Holder returns more than one Ballot voting different claims, and the Ballots are not voted in the same manner, and the Ballots are not corrected before the Voting Deadline, those Ballots will not be counted. An otherwise properly executed Ballot that attempts to partially accept and partially reject the Plan will likewise not be counted. The Debtors, in their sole discretion, may request that the Solicitation Agent attempt to contact such voters to cure any such defects in the Ballots.

The Ballots provided to Voting Holders will reflect the principal amount of such Voting Holder’s Claim; however, when tabulating votes, the Solicitation Agent may adjust the amount of such Voting Holder’s Claim by multiplying the principal amount by a factor that reflects all amounts accrued between the Voting Record Date and the Petition Date including interest.

Under the Bankruptcy Code, for purposes of determining whether the requisite votes for acceptance have been received, only the claims of Voting Holders who actually vote will be counted. The failure of a Voting Holder to timely deliver a duly executed Ballot to the Solicitation Agent will be deemed to constitute an abstention by such Voting Holder with respect to voting on the Plan and such abstentions will not be counted as votes for or against the Plan.

Except as provided below, unless the Ballot is timely submitted to the Solicitation Agent before the Voting Deadline, the Debtors may, in their sole discretion, reject such Ballot as invalid, and therefore decline to utilize it in connection with seeking confirmation of the Plan.

Agreements Upon Furnishing Ballots

The delivery of an accepting Ballot pursuant to one of the procedures set forth above will constitute the agreement of the Voting Holder with respect to such Ballot to accept (i) all of the terms of, and conditions to, the Solicitation, and (ii) the terms of the Plan including the injunction, releases, and exculpations set forth in Article X therein. All parties in interest retain their right to object to confirmation of the Plan pursuant to section 1128 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Change of Vote

Any party who has previously submitted to the Solicitation Agent prior to the Voting Deadline a properly completed Ballot may revoke such Ballot and change its vote by submitting to the Solicitation Agent prior to the Voting Deadline a subsequent, properly completed Ballot for acceptance or rejection of the Plan, as applicable.

Waivers of Defects, Irregularities, etc.

Unless otherwise directed by the Bankruptcy Court, all questions as to the validity, form, eligibility (including time of receipt), acceptance, and revocation or withdrawals of ballots will be determined by the Solicitation Agent or the Debtors, as applicable, in their sole discretion, which determination will be final and binding. The Debtors reserve the right to reject any and all ballots submitted by any of their respective Voting Parties not in proper form, the acceptance of which would, in the opinion of the Debtors or their counsel, as applicable, be unlawful. The Debtors further reserve their respective rights to waive any defects or irregularities or conditions of delivery as to any particular ballot. The interpretation (including the ballot and the respective instructions thereto) by the applicable Debtor, unless otherwise directed by the Bankruptcy Court, will be final and binding on all parties. Unless waived, any defects or irregularities in connection with deliveries of ballots must be cured within such time as the Debtors (or the Bankruptcy Court) determines. Neither the Debtors nor any other person will be under any duty to provide notification of defects or irregularities with respect to deliveries of ballots nor will any of them incur any liabilities for failure to provide such notification. Unless otherwise directed by the Bankruptcy Court, delivery of such ballots will not be deemed to have been made until such irregularities have been cured or waived. Ballots previously furnished (and as to which any irregularities have not theretofore been cured or waived) will be invalidated.

Notice of Non-Voting Status

Holders of Claims in Class 1, Class 2, Class 6, and Class 9 are Unimpaired and presumed to accept the Plan. Holders of Claims in Class 7 and Interests in Class 8 are either Unimpaired and presumed to accept the Plan or Impaired and deemed to reject the Plan.¹⁵ Holders of Interests in Class 10 are Impaired and deemed to reject the Plan. Accordingly, Holders of Claims and Interests in Classes 1, 2, 6, 9, and 10 will receive a notice informing them of their non-voting status (the “Notice of Non-Voting Status”). The Debtors are requesting a waiver of any requirement to provide Holders of Claims and Interests in Classes 7 and 8 a Notice of Non-Voting Status.

Release Opt-Out Form

Together with the Notice of Non-Voting Status, Holders of Claims and Interests in Classes 1, 2, 6, 9 and 10 will receive a form to complete and return if the party elects to opt out of the releases contemplated by the Plan (“Release Opt-Out Form”). To the extent a Holder of Claims and Interests in Class 1, 2, 6, 9 and 10 wishes to elect to opt-out of the releases, such Holder must return the Release Opt-Out Form, with the box checked indicating such Holder is electing to opt-out of the releases, to the Solicitation Agent before 5:00 p.m. (prevailing Central Time) on August 22, 2025.

CONFIRMATION OF PLAN

Confirmation Hearing

Section 1128(a) of the Bankruptcy Code requires the Bankruptcy Court to hold a confirmation hearing upon appropriate notice to all required parties. Notice of the Confirmation Hearing will be provided to all known creditors and equity holders or their representatives. The Confirmation Hearing may be adjourned from time to time by the Bankruptcy Court without further notice except for the announcement of the continuation date made at the Confirmation Hearing, at any subsequent continued Confirmation Hearing, or pursuant to a notice filed on the docket for the Chapter 11 Cases.

Objections to Confirmation

Section 1128(b) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that any party in interest may object to the confirmation of a plan. Any objection to confirmation of the Plan must (i) be in writing; (ii) conform to the applicable Bankruptcy Rules and the Bankruptcy Local Rules; (iii) set forth the name of the objecting party, the basis for the objection, and the specific grounds thereof;

¹⁵

The Debtors have asked the Bankruptcy Court to waive the bankruptcy notice requirement with respect to Class 7 – Intercompany Claims and Class 8 – Intercompany Interests to relieve the Debtors of the need to serve a Notice of Non-Voting Status or any other type of notice in connection with the Plan on holders of such Claims and Interests.

(iv) include proposed language that if included in the Plan would remedy the matters set forth in the objection; and (v) be filed with the Court, together with proof of service. In addition to being filed with the Court, any such responses or objections must be served on the following parties so as to be received by August 22, 2025 at 5:00 p.m. (prevailing Central Time):

Requirements for Confirmation of Plan

Requirements of Section 1129(a) of Bankruptcy Code

At the Confirmation Hearing, the Bankruptcy Court will determine whether the confirmation requirements specified in section 1129(a) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied, including whether:

(a)

the Plan complies with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code;

(b)

the Debtors have complied with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code;

(c)

the Plan has been proposed in good faith and not by any means forbidden by law;

(d)

any payment made or promised by the Debtors, for services or for costs and expenses in or in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, or in connection with the Plan and incident to the Chapter 11 Cases, has been disclosed to the Bankruptcy Court, and any such payment made before confirmation of the Plan is reasonable, or if such payment is to be fixed after confirmation of the Plan, such payment is subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court as reasonable;

(e)

the Debtors have disclosed, to the extent known, the identity and affiliations of any individual proposed to serve, after confirmation of the Plan, as a director or officer of the Reorganized Debtors, an affiliate of the Debtors participating in the Plan with the Debtors, or a successor to the Debtors under the Plan, and the appointment to, or continuance in, such office of such individual is consistent with the interests holders of Claims and Interests and with public policy, and the Debtors have disclosed the identity of any insider who will be employed or retained by the Reorganized Debtors, and the nature of any compensation for such insider;

(f)

with respect to each Class of Claims or Interests, each holder of an Impaired Claim or Interest has either accepted the Plan or will receive or retain under the Plan, on account of such holder’s Claim, property of a value, as of the Effective Date of the Plan, that is not less than the amount such holder would receive or retain if the Debtors were liquidated on the Effective Date of the Plan under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code;

(g)

except to the extent the Plan meets the requirements of section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code (as discussed further below), each Class of Claims or Interests either accepted the Plan or is not impaired under the Plan;

(h)

except to the extent that the holder of a particular Claim has agreed to a different treatment of such Claim, the Plan provides that Administrative Expense Claims, Other Priority Claims, and Priority Tax Claims will be paid in full or receive such other treatment consistent with the provisions of section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code;

(i)

at least one Class of impaired Claims has accepted the Plan, determined without including any acceptance of the Plan by any insider holding a Claim in such Class;

(j)

confirmation of the Plan is not likely to be followed by the liquidation, or the need for further financial reorganization, of the Debtors or any successor to the Debtors under the Plan; and

(k)

all fees payable under section 1930 of title 28, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court at the Confirmation Hearing, have been paid or the Plan provides for the payment of all such fees on the Effective Date of the Plan.

As provided above, among the requirements for confirmation are that the Plan is (A) accepted by all impaired Classes of Claims and Interests entitled to vote or, if rejected or deemed rejected by an impaired Class, that the Plan “does not discriminate unfairly” and is “fair and equitable” as to such Class; (B) in the “best interests” of the holders of Claims and Interests impaired under the Plan; and (C) feasible.

ii.

Acceptance of Plan

Under the Bankruptcy Code, a class accepts a chapter 11 plan if (i) holders of two-thirds (2/3) in amount and (ii) with respect to holders of claims, more than a majority in number of the allowed claims in such class (other than those designated under section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code) vote to accept the plan. Holders of Claims or Interests that fail to vote are not counted in determining the thresholds for acceptance of the plan.

If any impaired Class of Claims or Interests does not accept the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court may still confirm the Plan at the request of the Debtors if at least one Class of Claims has accepted the Plan and, as to each Impaired Class of Claims or Interests that has not accepted the Plan (or is deemed to reject the Plan), the Plan “does not discriminate unfairly” and is “fair and equitable” under the so-called “cramdown” provisions set forth in section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. The “unfair discrimination” test applies to classes of claims or interests that are of equal priority and are receiving different treatment under the plan. A chapter 11 plan does not discriminate unfairly, within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code, if the legal rights of a dissenting class are treated in a manner consistent with the treatment of other classes whose legal rights are substantially similar to those of the dissenting class and if no class of claims or interests receives more than it legally is entitled to receive for its claims or interests. The test does not require that the treatment be the same or equivalent, but that such treatment be “fair.” The “fair and equitable” test applies to classes of different priority and status (e.g., secured versus unsecured; claims versus interests) and includes the general requirement that no class of claims receive more than 100% of the allowed amount of the claims in such class. As to a dissenting class, if any, the test sets different standards that must be satisfied for the plan to be confirmed, depending on the type of claims or interests in such class. The following sets forth the “fair and equitable” test that must be satisfied as to each type of class for a plan to be confirmed if such class rejects the plan:

•

Secured Creditors. Each holder of an impaired secured claim either (a) retains its liens on the property, to the extent of the allowed amount of its secured claim, and receives deferred cash payments having a value, as of the effective date of the plan, of at least the allowed amount of such secured claim, (b) has the right to credit bid the amount of its claim if its property is sold and retains its lien on the proceeds of the sale, or (c) receives the “indubitable equivalent” of its allowed secured claim.

•

Unsecured Creditors. Either (a) each holder of an impaired unsecured claim receives or retains under the Plan, property of a value, as of the effective date of the Plan, equal to the amount of its allowed claim or (b) the holders of claims and interests that are junior to the claims of the dissenting class will not receive any property under the plan.

•

Interests. Either (a) each equity interest holder will receive or retain under the plan property of a value equal to the greater of (i) the fixed liquidation preference or redemption price, if any, of such equity interest and (ii) the value of the equity interest or (b) the holders of interests that are junior to the interests of the dissenting class will not receive or retain any property under the plan.

The Debtors believe the Plan satisfies the “fair and equitable” requirement with respect to any rejecting Class.

IF ALL OTHER CONFIRMATION REQUIREMENTS ARE SATISFIED AT THE CONFIRMATION HEARING, THE DEBTORS WILL ASK THE BANKRUPTCY COURT TO RULE THAT THE PLAN MAY BE CONFIRMED ON THE GROUND THAT THE SECTION 1129(b) REQUIREMENTS HAVE BEEN SATISFIED.

iii.

Best Interests Test

As noted above, with respect to each impaired class of claims and equity interests, confirmation of a plan requires that each such holder either: (a) accept the plan; or (b) receive or retain under the plan property of a value, as of the effective date of the plan, that is not less than the value such holder would receive or retain if the Debtors were liquidated under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. This requirement is referred to as the “best interests test.”

This test requires a bankruptcy court to determine what the holders of allowed claims and allowed equity interests in each impaired class would receive from a liquidation of the debtor’s assets and properties in the context of a liquidation under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. To determine if a plan is in the best interests of each impaired class, the value of the distributions from the proceeds of the liquidation of the debtor’s assets and properties (after subtracting the amounts attributable to the aforesaid claims) is then compared with the value offered to such classes of claims and equity interests under the plan.

Under the Plan, all holders of Impaired Claims and Interests will receive property with a value not less than the value such holder would receive in a liquidation under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. This conclusion is based primarily on: (a) consideration of the effects that a chapter 7 liquidation would have on the ultimate proceeds available for distribution to holders of Impaired Claims and Interests; and (b) the Liquidation Analysis attached hereto as Exhibit D.

Any liquidation analysis is speculative, as it is necessarily premised on assumptions and estimates that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which would be beyond the control of the Debtors. The Liquidation Analysis provided in Exhibit D is solely for the purpose of disclosing to holders of Claims and Interests the effects of a hypothetical chapter 7 liquidation of the Debtors, subject to the assumptions set forth therein. There can be no assurance as to values that would actually be realized in a chapter 7 liquidation nor can there be any assurance that a bankruptcy court will accept the Debtors’ conclusions or concur with such assumptions in making its determinations under section 1129(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code.

iv.

Feasibility

Section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that a debtor demonstrate that confirmation of a plan is not likely to be followed by liquidation or the need for further financial reorganization. For purposes of determining whether the Plan meets this requirement, the Debtors have analyzed their ability to meet their obligations under the Plan. As part of this analysis, the Debtors have prepared the consolidated financial projections for the Reorganized Debtors (collectively with the reserve information, development of schedules, and financial information, the “Financial Projections”) for fiscal years 2026 through 2029. The Financial Projections, and the assumptions on which they are based, are attached hereto as Exhibit E. Based upon such Financial Projections, the Debtors conclude they will have sufficient resources to make all payments required pursuant to the Plan and that confirmation of the Plan is not likely to be followed by liquidation or the need for further reorganization. Moreover, Article IX hereof sets forth certain risk factors that could impact the feasibility of the Plan.

The Financial Projections assume that the Plan will be consummated in accordance with its terms and that all transactions contemplated by the Plan will be consummated on or prior to September 30, 2025 (the “Effective Date”). Any significant delay in the Effective Date may have a significant negative impact on the operations and financial performance of the Debtors including, but not limited to, an increased risk or inability to meet forecasts and the incurrence of higher reorganization expenses.

The Debtors do not, as a matter of course, publish their business plans or strategies, projections or anticipated financial position. Accordingly, the Debtors do not anticipate that they will, and disclaim any obligation to, furnish updated business plans or Financial Projections to parties in interest after the Confirmation Date or otherwise make such information public. In connection with the planning and development of the Plan, the Financial Projections were prepared by the Debtors, with the assistance of their professionals, to present the anticipated impact of the Plan. The Financial Projections assume that the Plan will be implemented in accordance with its stated terms. The Financial Projections are based on forecasts of key economic variables and may be significantly impacted by business, industry, regulatory, market and financial uncertainties and contingencies, and a variety of other factors.

Consequently, the estimates and assumptions underlying the Financial Projections are inherently uncertain and are subject to material business, economic, and other uncertainties. Therefore, such Financial Projections, estimates, and assumptions are not necessarily indicative of current values or future performance, which may be significantly less or more favorable than set forth herein.

The Financial Projections should be read in conjunction with the assumptions, qualifications, and explanations set forth in this Disclosure Statement, the Plan, and the Plan Supplement, in their entirety, and the historical consolidated financial statements (including the notes and schedules thereto).

XII.

ALTERNATIVES TO CONFIRMATION

AND CONSUMMATION OF PLAN

The Debtors have evaluated several alternatives to the Plan. After studying these alternatives, the Debtors have concluded that the Plan is the best alternative and will maximize recoveries to parties in interest, assuming confirmation and consummation of the Plan. If the Plan is not confirmed and consummated, the alternatives to the Plan are (i) the preparation and presentation of an alternative reorganization, (ii) a sale of some or all of the Debtors’ assets pursuant to section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (iii) a liquidation under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Alternative Plan of Reorganization

If the Plan is not confirmed, the Debtors (or if the Debtors’ exclusive period in which to file a plan of reorganization has expired, any other party in interest) could attempt to formulate a different plan. Such a plan might involve either (i) a reorganization and continuation of the Debtors’ business or (ii) an orderly liquidation of their assets. The Debtors, however, believe that the Plan, as described herein, enables their stakeholders to realize the most value under the circumstances. In addition, if the Plan is not confirmed pursuant to the terms of the Restructuring Support Agreement, the Consenting Creditors have the right to terminate the Restructuring Support Agreement (and all obligations thereunder) either in its entirety or as to themselves only, as applicable.

Sale Under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code

If the Plan is not confirmed, the Debtors could seek from the Bankruptcy Court, after notice and hearing, authorization to sell their assets under section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code. Holders of Allowed Claims in Class 3 would be entitled to credit bid on any property to which their security interest is attached to the extent of the value of such security interest, and to offset their Claims against the purchase price of the property. In addition, the security interests in the Debtors’ assets held by Holders of Claims in Class 3 would attach to the proceeds of any sale of the Debtors’ assets to the extent of their secured interests therein. Upon analysis and consideration of this alternative, the Debtors do not believe a sale of their assets under section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code would yield a higher recovery for the holders of Claims and Interests under the Plan.

Liquidation under Chapter 7 of Bankruptcy Code

If no plan can be confirmed, the Chapter 11 Cases may be converted to cases under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code in which a trustee would be elected or appointed to liquidate the assets of the Debtors for distribution to their creditors in accordance with the priorities established by the Bankruptcy Code. The effect that a chapter 7 liquidation would have on the recovery of holders of Allowed Claims and Interests is set forth in the Liquidation Analysis attached hereto as Exhibit D.

The Debtors believe that liquidation under chapter 7 would result in smaller distributions to creditors than those provided for in the Plan because of, among other things, the delay resulting from the conversion of the Chapter 11 Cases, the additional administrative expenses associated with the appointment of a trustee and the trustee’s retention of professionals who would be required to become familiar with the many legal and factual issues in the Chapter 11 Cases, and the loss in value attributable to an expeditious liquidation of the Debtors’ assets as required by chapter 7.

XIII.

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION

The Debtors believe the Plan is in the best interests of all stakeholders and urge the holders of Claims in Classes 3, 4 and 5 to vote in favor thereof.

JOINT PREPACKAGED CHAPTER 11 PLAN OF

REORGANIZATION OF WOLFSPEED, INC. AND ITS DEBTOR AFFILIATE

Wolfspeed, Inc. and Wolfspeed Texas LLC (collectively, the “Debtors”) propose this Plan (as defined herein) for the treatment and resolution of the outstanding Claims against, and Interests in, the Debtors. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in Article I.A.

(c) After the Effective Date and following the (i) distributions to Holders on account of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims, Allowed Convertible Notes Claims, and Allowed Renesas Claims and (ii) payment of the Restructuring Expenses, any Lien securing such Claims shall be deemed released and the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors may, in their sole discretion, take any action necessary to terminate, cancel, extinguish, and/or evidence the release of any and all mortgages, deeds of trust, Liens, pledges, and other security interests with respect to the Senior Secured Notes Claims, including the preparation and filing, in form, substance, and content of any and all documents necessary to terminate, satisfy, or release any mortgages, deeds of trust, Liens, pledges, and other security interests held by the Senior Secured Notes Trustee and the Senior Secured Noteholders, including UCC-3 termination statements.

(c) The officers of the respective Debtors immediately before the Effective Date, as applicable, shall serve as the initial officers of each of the respective Reorganized Debtors on the Effective Date.

To the extent applicable, Reorganized Parent’s New Corporate Governance Documents shall provide for sufficient shares of authorized New Common Stock to effectuate the issuance of New Common Stock contemplated by and in connection with this Plan, including the Incentive Plans, and Reorganized Parent shall issue or reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of New Common Stock to effectuate all such issuances. Each Holder of New Common Stock shall be deemed, without further notice or action, to have agreed to be bound by the New Corporate Governance Documents, as the same may be amended from time to time following the Effective Date in accordance with their terms. The New Corporate Governance Documents shall be binding on all Entities receiving New Common Stock (and their respective successors and permitted assigns), whether received pursuant to this Plan or otherwise and regardless of whether such Entity executes or delivers a signature page to any New Corporate Governance Document.

5.14. Regulatory Approvals.

The Debtors, Reorganized Debtors, and Renesas, as applicable, shall, subject to the Restructuring Support Agreement, use best efforts to provide any necessary or desirable diligence, including all screening diligence questions, and file all Regulatory Approvals.

(a) On the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall enter into the Registration Rights Agreement on the terms set forth in, and otherwise subject to, the Restructuring Support Agreement.

(b) With respect to the New Common Stock, Reorganized Parent shall provide Renesas with customary resale registration rights with respect to the Consideration Shares (and as applicable, the New Common Stock underlying the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes or the Renesas Warrants) issued to Renesas pursuant to this Plan and the Restructuring Support Agreement, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement and shall be effective as of the Effective Date.

(c) The Registration Rights Agreement shall provide that, prior to the Renesas Base Distribution Date, Renesas may require the Reorganized Parent to, among other things, file the Primary Registration Statement no later than thirty (30) days following a written request by Renesas to conduct a Registered Primary Offering and pay the proceeds of Registered Primary Offerings directly to Renesas pursuant to the Disposition Agreement; provided, that if all Regulatory Approvals, other than CFIUS approval or the Additional Approvals, have been obtained, Renesas shall not have the ability to exercise the right to require the Reorganized Parent to file a Primary Registration Statement to conduct a Registered Primary Offering until nineteen (19) weeks after the Effective Date.

5.17. Closing of the Chapter 11 Cases.

After an Estate has been fully administered, the Reorganized Debtors shall be authorized, but not directed, to submit an order to the Bankruptcy Court under certification of counsel to close the applicable Chapter 11 Case in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rules.

5.18. Notice of Effective Date.

On or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, the Debtors shall File a notice of the occurrence of the Effective Date with the Bankruptcy Court.

5.19. Separate Plans.

Notwithstanding the combination of separate plans of reorganization for the Debtors set forth in this Plan for purposes of economy and efficiency, this Plan constitutes a separate chapter 11 plan for each Debtor. Accordingly, if the Bankruptcy Court does not confirm this Plan with respect to one or more Debtors, it may still confirm this Plan with respect to any other Debtor that satisfies the confirmation requirements of section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code.

ARTICLE VI.

DISTRIBUTIONS.

6.1. Distributions Generally.

The Distribution Agent shall make all distributions under this Plan to the appropriate Holders of Allowed Claims in accordance with the terms of this Plan, provided that initial Plan distributions (other than for the Commitment Fee Amount to Holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims entitled thereto under the Additional Notes Purchase Agreement as provided in Article 4.3(b)(iii), which shall be made by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors) shall be made to or at the direction of the respective Notes Trustees for further distribution in accordance with the Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the Convertible Notes Indentures respectively.

6.2. Distribution Record Date.

As of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date, the various transfer registers for each of the Classes of Claims or Interests as maintained by the Debtors or their respective agents, shall be deemed closed, and there shall be no further changes in the record Holders of any of the Claims or Interests. The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors shall have no obligation to recognize any transfer of the Claims or Interests occurring on or after the Distribution Record Date. In addition, with respect to payment of any

Cure Claims or disputes over any Cure Claims, neither the Debtors nor the Distribution Agent shall have any obligation to recognize or deal with any party other than the non-Debtor party to the applicable Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease as of the Distribution Record Date, even if such non-Debtor party has sold, assigned, or otherwise transferred its Cure Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Distribution Record Date shall not apply to distributions in respect of securities deposited with DTC, the Holders of which shall receive distributions, if any, in accordance with the customary exchange procedures of DTC or this Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, in connection with a distribution through the facilities of DTC (if any), DTC shall be considered a single Holder for purposes of distributions.

6.3. Date of Distributions.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Plan (including payments made in the ordinary course of the Debtors’ business) or as paid pursuant to a prior Bankruptcy Court order, on the Effective Date or, if a Claim or Interest is not Allowed on the Effective Date, on the date that such Claim or Interest becomes Allowed, or, in each case, as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, or as otherwise determined in accordance with this Plan and Confirmation Order, including the treatment provisions of Article IV of this Plan, each Holder of an Allowed Claim shall receive the full amount of the distributions that this Plan provides for Allowed Claims in the applicable Class provided in this Plan; provided, that the Reorganized Debtors may implement periodic distribution dates to the extent they determine them to be appropriate (but subject in all respects to the Definitive Documents); provided further, that the Reorganized Debtors may make distributions of Plan Securities following the Effective Date, including to Holders of Disputed Claims that become Allowed Claims; provided further, that any Holder participating in the Rights Offering may inform the Distribution Agent pursuant to the Rights Offering Procedures that the distributions in respect of such Holder’s Allowed Claims shall be made to one or more of its Affiliates, designees or Related Funds. If and to the extent that there are Disputed Claims, distributions on account of any such Disputed Claims shall be made pursuant to the provisions set forth in Article VII; provided, that any Plan Security that is issuable to Holders of Allowed Claims but is withheld from distribution on account of a Holder of a Disputed Claim shall not be issued until such time such Disputed Claim is resolved and the Plan Securities are to be distributed. Except as specifically provided in this Plan, Holders of Allowed Claims shall not be entitled to interest, dividends, or accruals on the distributions provided for in this Plan, regardless of whether such distributions are delivered on or at any time after the Effective Date.

(b) For all purposes associated with distributions under the Plan, all guarantees by any Debtor of the obligations of any other Debtor, as well as any joint and several liability of any Debtor with respect to any other Debtor, shall be deemed eliminated so that any obligation that could otherwise be asserted against more than one Debtor shall result in a single distribution under the Plan; provided, that Claims held by a single entity at different Debtors that are not based on guarantees or joint and several liability shall be entitled to the applicable distribution for such Claim at each applicable Debtor. Any such Claims shall be released pursuant to Article X of the Plan and shall be subject to all potential objections, defenses, and counterclaims, and to estimation pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code. For the avoidance of doubt, this shall not affect the obligation of each and every Debtor to pay fees payable pursuant to section 1930(a) of the Judicial Code until such time as a particular Chapter 11 Case is closed, dismissed, or converted, whichever occurs first.

6.4. Delivery of Distributions to Senior Secured Notes and Convertible Notes.

Distributions to holders of Senior Secured Notes and Convertible Notes shall be made in exchange for such Senior Secured Notes and Convertible Notes. All Distributions with respect to the Senior Secured Notes (other than the Commitment Fee Amount) and Convertible Notes shall be made to or at the direction of the applicable Indenture Trustee. As a condition precedent to the Distributions provided for in this subsection, but, solely with respect to the Convertible Noteholders, subject to the Rights Offering

Procedures, the Senior Secured Noteholders and Convertible Noteholders shall be deemed to have surrendered their Senior Secured Notes and Convertible Notes and all such surrendered Senior Secured Notes and Convertible Notes and the related book entry positions and other documents shall be deemed to be cancelled in accordance with Section (a) of the Plan as of the Effective Date in exchange for such Distributions. With respect to each Distribution to be made to the Senior Secured Notes and Convertible Notes, the applicable Indenture Trustee’s facilitation of such Distribution shall be deemed satisfied upon DTC’s receipt of such Distribution.

6.5. Distribution Agent.

All distributions under this Plan to claims other than with respect to Senior Secured Notes or Convertible Notes shall be made by the applicable Distribution Agent which may be a Debtor, Reorganized Debtor, or such other Entity designated as Distribution Agent pursuant to the Plan Supplement Documents, on or after the Effective Date or as otherwise provided herein. A Distribution Agent shall not be required to give any bond or surety or other Security for the performance of its duties, and all reasonable fees and expenses incurred by such Distribution Agents directly related to distributions hereunder shall be reimbursed by the Reorganized Debtors.

6.6. Rights and Powers of Distribution Agent.

(a) From and after the Effective Date, the Distribution Agent, solely in its capacity as Distribution Agent, shall be exculpated by all Entities, including Holders of Claims against and Interests in the Debtors and other parties in interest, from any and all Claims, Causes of Action, and other assertions of liability arising out of the discharge of the powers and duties conferred upon such Distribution Agent by this Plan or any order of the Bankruptcy Court entered pursuant to or in furtherance of this Plan, or applicable law, except for actions or omissions to act arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct, fraud, malpractice, criminal conduct, or ultra vires acts of such Distribution Agent. No Holder of a Claim or Interest or other party in interest shall have or pursue any Claim or Cause of Action vested in a Distribution Agent by order of the Bankruptcy Court, pursuant to this Plan, or as deemed by such Distribution Agent to be necessary and proper to implement the provisions hereof.

(b) The Distribution Agent shall be empowered to: (i) effect all actions and execute all agreements, instruments, and other documents necessary to perform its duties under this Plan; (ii) make all applicable distributions or payments provided for under this Plan; (iii) employ professionals to represent it with respect to its responsibilities; and (iv) exercise such other powers (A) as may be vested in the Distribution Agent by order of the Bankruptcy Court (including any Final Order issued after the Effective Date) or pursuant to this Plan or (B) as deemed by the Distribution Agent to be necessary and proper to implement the provisions of this Plan.

6.7. Expenses of Distribution Agent.

Except as otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court and subject to the written agreement of the Reorganized Debtors, the reasonable and documented fees and expenses incurred by the Distribution Agent acting in such capacity (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and expenses) on or after the Effective Date shall be paid in Cash by the Reorganized Debtors in the ordinary course of business.

6.8. No Postpetition Interest.

Except as otherwise specifically provided for in this Plan, the Confirmation Order, any other Definitive Document, another Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, or required by applicable bankruptcy law (including, without limitation, as required pursuant to section 506(b) or section 511 of the Bankruptcy Code), postpetition interest shall not accrue or be paid on any Claims, and no Holder of a Claim shall be entitled to interest accruing on such Claim on or after the Petition Date.

6.9.

Delivery of Distributions.

Subject to Bankruptcy Rule 9010, all distributions to any Holder of an Allowed Claim shall be made by a Distribution Agent, who shall transmit such distribution to the applicable Holders of Allowed Claims (or to the Note Trustees as provided herein in the case of Senior Secured Notes Claims (other than the Commitment Fee Amount) and Convertible Notes Claims); provided, that any Holder participating in the Rights Offering as of the Distribution Record Date may send a written notice to the Distribution Agent that the distributions in respect of such Holder’s Allowed Claims shall be made to one or more of its Affiliates, designees or Related Funds; provided further, that such Holder and relevant Affiliate, designee, or Related Fund comply with all applicable withholding and reporting requirements set forth in Article 6.20 of this Plan. If a distribution to any Holder is returned as undeliverable, no further distributions shall be made to such Holder unless and until such Distribution Agent is notified in writing of such Holder’s then-current address, at which time all currently-due, missed distributions shall be made to such Holder as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter without interest. Nothing herein shall require the Distribution Agent to attempt to locate Holders of undeliverable distributions and, if located, assist such Holders in complying with Article 6.20 of this Plan.

6.10. Distributions as of Effective Date.

Distributions to Holders of Disputed Claims that are not Allowed Claims as of the Effective Date but which later become Allowed Claims shall be deemed to have been made on the Effective Date.

6.11. Unclaimed Property.

One year from the later of (a) the Effective Date and (b) the date that is ten (10) Business Days after the date of a distribution on an Allowed Claim, all distributions payable on account of such Claim that are undeliverable or otherwise unclaimed shall be deemed unclaimed property under section 347(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and shall revert to the Reorganized Debtors or their successors or assigns, and all Claims of any other person (including the Holder of a Claim in the same Class) to such distribution shall be discharged and forever barred. The Reorganized Debtors and the Distribution Agent shall have no obligation to attempt to locate any Holder of an Allowed Claim other than by reviewing the Debtors’ books and records and the Bankruptcy Court’s Filings. In respect of the Renesas Claims, this Article 6.11, to the extent applicable, shall be subject to the Renesas Contingent Documentation in all respects.

6.12. Time Bar to Cash Payments.

Checks issued by the Distribution Agent in respect of Allowed Claims shall be null and void if not negotiated within ninety (90) days after the date of issuance thereof. Thereafter, the amount represented by such voided check shall irrevocably revert to the Reorganized Debtors, and any Claim in respect of such voided check shall be discharged and forever barred, notwithstanding any federal or state escheat laws to the contrary. Requests for re-issuance of any check shall be made to the applicable Distribution Agent by the Holder of the Allowed Claim to whom such check was originally issued, prior to the expiration of the ninety (90) day period.

6.13. Manner of Payment under Plan.

Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Plan, at the option of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, any Cash payment to be made hereunder may be made by a check or wire transfer or as otherwise required or provided in applicable agreements or customary practices of the Debtors.

6.14. Satisfaction of Claims.

Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Plan, any distributions and deliveries to be made on account of Allowed Claims under this Plan shall be in complete and final satisfaction, release, settlement, and discharge of and exchange for such Allowed Claims.

6.15. Fractional Stock.

No fractional shares of New Common Stock shall be distributed. If any distributions of New Common Stock pursuant to this Plan would result in the issuance of a fractional share of New Common Stock, then the number of shares of New Common Stock to be issued in respect of such distribution will be calculated to one decimal place and rounded up or down to the closest whole share (with a half share or greater rounded up and less than a half share rounded down). The total number of shares of New Common Stock to be distributed in connection with this Plan shall be adjusted as necessary to account for the rounding provided for in this Article 6.15. No consideration shall be provided in lieu of fractional shares that are rounded down. Neither the Reorganized Debtors nor the Distribution Agent shall have any obligation to make a distribution that is less than one (1) share of New Common Stock. Fractional shares of New Common Stock that are not distributed in accordance with this section shall be returned to, and the ownership thereof shall vest in, the Reorganized Debtors; provided that, with respect to distributions of New Common Stock through the facilities of DTC, such distributions shall be subject to further rounding adjustments in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC.

6.16. Minimum Cash Distributions.

The Distribution Agent shall not be required to make any distribution of Cash less than one hundred dollars ($100) to any Holder of an Allowed Claim; provided, that if any distribution is not made pursuant to this Article 6.16, such distribution shall be added to any subsequent distribution to be made on behalf of the Holder’s Allowed Claim.

6.17. Setoffs.

(a) The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, or such Entity’s designee as instructed by such Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, as applicable, may, but shall not be required to, set off or recoup against any Claim, and any distribution to be made pursuant to this Plan on account of such Claim, any and all Claims, rights, and Causes of Action of any nature whatsoever that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors or their successors may have against the Holder of such Claim pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or applicable non-bankruptcy law; provided, that neither the failure to do so nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release by a Debtor or a Reorganized Debtor or its successor of any claims, rights, or Causes of Action that a Debtor or Reorganized Debtor or its successor or assign may possess against the Holder of such Claim.

(b) In no event shall any Holder of Claims be entitled to set off any such Claim against any claim, right, or Cause of Action of the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, unless (i) the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, have consented or (ii) such Holder has Filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court requesting the authority to perform such setoff on or before the Confirmation Date, and notwithstanding any indication in any Proof of Claim or otherwise that such Holder asserts, has, or intends to preserve any right of setoff pursuant to section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this paragraph does not create any new rights to setoff or recoupment that did not exist under any applicable law or agreement in existence prior to the Effective Date.

6.18. Allocation of Distributions Between Principal and Interest.

Except as otherwise provided in this Plan and subject to Article 6.9 herein or as otherwise required by law (as reasonably determined by the Reorganized Debtors), distributions with respect to an Allowed Claim shall be allocated first to the principal portion of such Allowed Claim (as determined for United States federal income tax purposes) and, thereafter, to the remaining portion of such Allowed Claim, if any.

6.19. No Distribution in Excess of Amount of Allowed Claim.

Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, no Holder of an Allowed Claim shall receive, on account of such Allowed Claim, distributions in excess of the Allowed amount of such Claim.

6.20. Withholding, Reporting Requirement, and Intended Tax Treatment.

(a) Withholding Rights. In connection with this Plan, any party issuing any instrument or making any distribution described in this Plan or payment in connection therewith shall comply with all applicable withholding and reporting requirements imposed by any applicable tax law, and all distributions pursuant to this Plan and all related agreements shall be subject to any such withholding or reporting requirements. In the case of a non-Cash issuance or distribution that is subject to withholding, and subject to Article 6.20 of this Plan, the distributing party may withhold an appropriate portion of such distributed property and either (i) sell such withheld property to generate Cash necessary to pay over the withholding tax (or reimburse the distributing party for any advance payment of the withholding tax) and, if applicable, remit any excess Cash to the applicable recipient, or (ii) pay the withholding tax using its own funds and retain such withheld property (at fair market value as reasonably determined in good faith by the Reorganized Debtors). Any amounts withheld pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be deemed to have been distributed to and received by the applicable recipient for all purposes of this Plan to the extent the corresponding withholding tax is paid to the applicable taxing authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Holder of an Allowed Claim or any other Entity that receives a distribution pursuant to this Plan shall have the sole and exclusive responsibility for the satisfaction and payment of any taxes imposed by any Governmental Unit, including income, withholding, and other taxes, on account of such distribution, except to the extent the amounts have been withheld or deducted by the Reorganized Debtors. Any party issuing any instrument or making any distribution pursuant to this Plan has the right, but not the obligation, to not make a distribution until such Holder has made arrangements satisfactory to such issuing or disbursing party for payment of any such tax obligations. Notwithstanding any provision in this Plan to the contrary, the Reorganized Debtors shall reasonably cooperate with the relevant recipients to minimize or eliminate any such withholding to the extent permitted by applicable tax law.

(b) Forms. Any party entitled to receive any property as an issuance or distribution under this Plan shall, upon request, deliver to the Distribution Agent or such other Entity designated by the Reorganized Debtors (which Entity shall subsequently deliver to the Distribution Agent any applicable IRS Form W-8 or Form W-9 received) an appropriate IRS Form W-9 or (if the payee is a foreign Entity) an appropriate IRS Form W-8 and any other forms or documents reasonably requested by any Reorganized Debtor to reduce or eliminate any withholding required by applicable tax law. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, in any case where any Consenting Creditor fails to deliver a duly executed IRS Form W-9 or applicable IRS Form W-8 or any other tax form or certificate to eliminate any applicable withholding tax, the Reorganized Debtors’, the Distribution Agent’s, or such other Entity designated by the Reorganized Debtors or Distribution Agents’ sole remedy shall be to withhold required amounts under applicable tax law.

(c) Restructuring Support Agreement Intended Tax Treatments. The Reorganized Debtors and Debtors, as applicable, and Renesas agree to treat, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (i) the Renesas Warrants issued as a portion of the consideration paid in respect of the Allowed Renesas Claim, and (ii) the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes and the CRD, in each case, as a “security” of the Reorganized Debtors and Debtors, respectively, for purposes of sections 354 and 356 of the IRC, and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and not as a “contingent payment debt instrument” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations section 1.1275-4. The Reorganized Debtors and the Consenting Creditors agree to treat, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the New 2L Convertible Notes and New 2L Takeback Notes, in each case, not as a “contingent payment debt instrument” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations section 1.1275-4. The Reorganized Debtors and Debtors, as applicable, and the Consenting Senior Secured Noteholders agree to treat, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the issuance of the New Senior Secured Notes as not giving rise to a “significant modification” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations section 1.1001-3(e)) with respect to the Senior Secured Notes or an exchange or other disposition of the Senior Secured Notes by the Senior Secured Noteholders to the extent such position is permitted under applicable law, and the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall cooperate in good faith with the Consenting Senior Secured Noteholders to support such treatment. The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, and Consenting Creditors acknowledge that, based on the quotes available on the interdealer markets, the Convertible Notes were, for the quarter ending on March 31, 2025, and are expected to be, for the quarter ending on June 30, 2025, “regularly traded on an established securities market” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation sections 1.897-1 and 1.897-9T and, if trading activity on the Convertible Notes continues for all or any portion of subsequent quarters, that the Convertible Notes are expected to continue to be “regularly traded on an established securities” market for such purposes and for such quarters. The Reorganized Debtors and Debtors, as applicable, and Consenting Creditors shall file all tax returns consistent with, and take no position inconsistent with, the treatment set forth in this Article 6.20(d) (whether in audits, tax returns or otherwise) unless required to do so pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the IRC. The Reorganized Debtors and Debtors, as applicable, and the Consenting Creditors agree to cooperate in good faith (and without undue cost or expense to the Reorganized Debtors and Debtors, as applicable) in determining whether any interest in the Reorganized Debtors is a United States real property interest within the meaning of Section 897 of the IRC, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

(d) Backstop Commitment Agreement Intended Tax Treatment. For U.S. federal and applicable state and local income tax purposes, the Reorganized Debtors and the Backstop Parties agree (i) to treat (A) the Backstop Premium as “put premium” paid to the Backstop Parties, (B) the discount implied by the Purchase Price as original issue discount, (C) the Debtors and the Backstop Parties entering into the Backstop Commitment Agreement to create the obligation to purchase the New 2L Convertible Notes in respect of the Backstop Commitment (as defined in the Backstop Commitment Agreement) as a sale of put options (in consideration for the put premium described in clause (A)) by the Initial Backstop Parties, (D) solely in the event that a substantial amount of New 2L Convertible Notes is issued for cash, the issue price for all New 2L Convertible Notes as determined by reference to the Purchase Price paid in cash and (E) all New 2L Convertible Notes as part of the same issue and fungible with each other; and, with respect to each of the foregoing, no amount shall be treated as having been received in respect of services in connection with Backstop Commitment Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, including the right and obligation of the Initial Backstop Parties or the Rights Offering Backstop Parties (as defined in the Backstop Commitment Agreement) to purchase New 2L Convertible Notes in respect of the Direct Investment Commitment or Backstop Commitment (each as defined in the Backstop Commitment Agreement), respectively. The Reorganized Debtors and the Backstop Parties shall prepare and file all tax returns consistent with the tax treatment set forth in this Article 6.20(e) except as otherwise required pursuant to a determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the IRC.

6.22. Release of Contingent Additional Consideration.

(a) If the Regulatory Trigger Deadline occurs, Renesas shall be entitled to the Contingent Additional Consideration in full (including its rights to proceeds therefrom), as applicable. At such time, the Contingent Cash shall immediately be released to Renesas in full from escrow, the Incremental New 2L Takeback Notes shall immediately be issued to Renesas, the Renesas Warrants Term Extension shall become effective, and the Contingent Shares (or economic entitlement to such Contingent Shares) shall be subject to and distributed through the ELOC/ATM Programs and Registered Primary Offerings.

(b) If, prior to the Regulatory Trigger Deadline, Renesas obtains all Regulatory Approvals, the Contingent Additional Consideration shall be distributed as follows:

(i) $10,000,000 of the Contingent Cash shall be remitted from the escrow account governed by the Contingent Cash Escrow Agreement to the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable;

(ii) $5,000,000 of the Contingent Cash shall be distributed to those Holders of Commitment Fee Claims, which shall be released no later than five (5) Business Days after the Regulatory Approvals have been obtained;

(iii) The Incremental New 2L Takeback Notes shall not be issued;

(iv) The Contingent Shares shall be distributed to Holders of Existing Equity Interests; and

(v) The Renesas Warrants Term Extension shall not be implemented.

6.23. Release of Base Consideration & Contingent Additional Consideration.

Upon the Renesas Base Distribution Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall immediately issue directly to Renesas (i) all Base Consideration not previously distributed to Renesas, less any portions or equivalent proceeds of the Base Consideration in respect of which Renesas has received Sale Proceeds pursuant to the Disposition Agreement, in accordance with this Plan and Confirmation Order, and, to the extent the Renesas Base Distribution Date occurs after the Regulatory Trigger Deadline has occurred, (ii) the Contingent Additional Consideration, less any portions of the Contingent Additional Consideration in respect of which Renesas has received Sale Proceeds pursuant to the Disposition Agreement, in accordance with this Plan and Confirmation Order.

ARTICLE VII.

PROCEDURES FOR DISPUTED CLAIMS

7.1. Disputed Claims Generally.

(a) Notwithstanding section 502(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, and except as otherwise set forth in this Plan or Confirmation Order, Holders of Claims, other than Claims arising from the rejection of an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, need not File Proofs of Claim with the Bankruptcy Court, and the Reorganized Debtors and Holders of Claims shall determine, adjudicate, and resolve any disputes over the validity and amounts of such Claims as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced; provided, that the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, reserve the right to object to any Claim that is entitled, or deemed to be entitled, to a distribution under this Plan or is rendered Unimpaired under this Plan, unless such Claim is Allowed hereunder.

(b) Unless disputed by a Holder of a Claim or as otherwise set forth in the Plan, the amount set forth in the books and records of the Debtors shall constitute the amount of the Allowed Claim of such Holder except that (unless expressly waived pursuant to this Plan) the Allowed amount of such Claim shall be subject to the limitations or maximum amounts permitted by the Bankruptcy Code, including sections 502 and 503 of the Bankruptcy Code, to the extent applicable. If any such Holder of a Claim disagrees with the Debtors’ books and records with respect to the Allowed amount of such Holder’s Claim, such Holder must so advise the Debtors in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt of any distribution on account of such Holder’s Claim, in which event the Claim shall become a Disputed Claim. The Debtors intend to attempt to resolve any such disputes consensually or through judicial means outside the Bankruptcy Court. Nevertheless, the Debtors may, in their discretion, File with the Bankruptcy Court (or any other court of competent jurisdiction) an objection to the allowance of any Claim or any other appropriate motion or adversary proceeding with respect thereto. From and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may satisfy, dispute, settle, or otherwise compromise any Claim without approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

(c) Except for Proofs of Claim in respect of Claims arising from the rejection of an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, any Filed Claim shall be considered objected to and Disputed without further action by the Debtors. Upon and after the Effective Date, all Proofs of Claim, other than Claims arising from the rejection of an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, Filed against the Debtors, regardless of the time of filing, shall be deemed withdrawn and expunged. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, disputes regarding the amount of any Cure Cost pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and Claims that the Debtors seek to have determined by the Bankruptcy Court, shall in all cases be determined by the Bankruptcy Court.

7.2. Objections to Claims.

Except insofar as a Claim is Allowed under this Plan, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall be entitled to object to Claims. After the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall have and retain any and all rights and defenses that the Debtors had with regard to any Claim or Interest. Any objections to Claims shall be served and Filed on or before the later of (a) two (2) years after the Effective Date and (b) such later date as may be fixed by the Bankruptcy Court. The expiration of such period shall not limit or affect the Debtors’ or the Reorganized Debtors’ rights to dispute Claims other than through an objection to a Claim and/or to proof of such Claim Filed in the Bankruptcy Court.

7.3. Estimation of Claims.

The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may (a) determine, resolve, and otherwise adjudicate all contingent, unliquidated, and Disputed Claims in the Bankruptcy Court and (b) at any time request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any contingent, unliquidated, or Disputed Claim pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code regardless of whether the Debtors previously objected to such Claim or whether the Bankruptcy Court has ruled on any such objection. The Bankruptcy Court shall retain jurisdiction to estimate any Claim, including at any time during litigation concerning any objection to any Claim or during the pendency of any appeal relating to any such objection. In the event that the Bankruptcy Court estimates any contingent, unliquidated, or Disputed Claim, the amount so estimated shall constitute either the Allowed amount of such Claim or a maximum limitation on the Allowed amount of such Claim, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court. If the estimated amount constitutes a maximum limitation on the Allowed amount of such Claim, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may pursue supplementary proceedings to object to the allowance of such Claim.

7.4. Disallowance of Claims.

Any Claims held by Entities from which property is recoverable under sections 542, 543, 550, or 553 of the Bankruptcy Code or that is a transferee of a transfer avoidable under sections 522(f), 522(h), 544, 545, 547, 548, 549, or 724(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall be deemed Disallowed pursuant to section 502(d) of the Bankruptcy Code, and Holders of such Claims may not receive any distributions on account of such Claims until such time as such Causes of Action against that Entity have been settled or a Bankruptcy Court order with respect thereto has been entered and all sums due, if any, to the Debtors by that Entity have been turned over or paid to the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors.

7.5. No Distributions Pending Allowance.

If an objection, motion to estimate, or other challenge to a Claim is Filed, no payment or distribution provided under this Plan shall be made on account of such Claim unless and until (and only to the extent that) such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.

7.6. Distributions after Allowance.

To the extent that a Disputed Claim ultimately becomes an Allowed Claim, distributions (if any) shall be made to the Holder of such Allowed Claim in accordance with the provisions of this Plan, including the treatment provisions provided in Article IV of this Plan.

7.7. Claim Resolution Procedures Cumulative.

All of the Claims, objection, estimation, and resolution procedures in this Plan are intended to be cumulative and not exclusive of one another. Claims may be estimated and subsequently settled, compromised, withdrawn, or resolved in accordance with this Plan without further notice or Bankruptcy Court approval.

7.8. Single Satisfaction of Claims and Interests.

In no case shall the aggregate value of all property received or retained under this Plan on account of any Allowed Claim or Interest exceed 100 percent (100%) of the underlying Allowed Claim or Interest plus applicable interest required to be paid hereunder, if any.

ARTICLE VIII.

TREATMENT OF EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES.

8.1. Assumption or Rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases .

(a) On the Effective Date, all Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases of the Debtors, including, but not limited to, employee contracts, which have not expired by their own terms on or prior to the Confirmation Date, shall be deemed assumed by the Debtors in accordance with, and subject to, the provisions and requirements of sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, except for those Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases that, in each case:

(i) have been assumed, assumed and assigned, or rejected by the Debtors by prior order of the Bankruptcy Court;

(ii) are the subject of a motion to reject Filed by the Debtors pending on the Effective Date;

(iii) are identified as rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases by the Debtors on the Schedule of Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases to be Filed in the Plan Supplement, which may be amended by the Debtors up to and through the Effective Date to add or remove Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases by Filing with the Bankruptcy Court a subsequent Plan Supplement and serving it on the affected non-Debtor contract parties;

(iv) are rejected or terminated pursuant to the terms of this Plan; or

(v) are the subject of a pending Cure Dispute.

(b) Without amending or altering any prior order of the Bankruptcy Court approving the assumption or rejection of any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, the Confirmation Order shall constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving such assumptions, assumptions and assignments, and the rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases set forth in the Schedule of Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases provided for in this Plan pursuant to sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code as of the Effective Date.

(c) To the extent any provision in any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease assumed or assumed and assigned (as applicable) pursuant to this Plan or any prior order of the Bankruptcy Court (including, without limitation, any “change of control” provision) prohibits, restricts or conditions, or purports to prohibit, restrict or condition, or is modified, breached or terminated, or deemed modified, breached or terminated by, (a) the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases or the insolvency or financial condition of any Debtor at any time before the closing of its respective Chapter 11 Case, (b) any Debtor’s or any Reorganized Debtor’s assumption or assumption and assignment (as applicable) of such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or (c) the Confirmation or consummation of this Plan, then such provision shall be deemed modified such that the transactions contemplated by this Plan shall not entitle the non- Debtor party thereto to modify or terminate such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or to exercise any other default-related rights or remedies with respect thereto, and any required consent under any such contract or lease shall be deemed satisfied by the Confirmation of this Plan.

(d) Each Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease assumed and/or assigned pursuant to this Plan shall revest in and be fully enforceable by the applicable Reorganized Debtor or the applicable assignee in accordance with its terms and conditions, except as modified by the provisions of this Plan, any order of the Bankruptcy Court approving its assumption and/or assignment, or applicable law.

(e) The Debtors reserve the right, on or before the Effective Date, to amend the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and/or to add or remove any Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease; provided, the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may amend the Schedule of Rejected Contracts to add or delete any Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases after such date to the extent agreed with the relevant counterparties and entry of an order of the Bankruptcy Court.

(f) The inclusion or exclusion of a contract or lease on any schedule or exhibit shall not constitute an admission by any Debtor that such contract or lease is an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or that any Debtor has any liability thereunder.

8.2. Payments Related to Assumption of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases .

Any monetary defaults under each Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease to be assumed or assumed and assigned pursuant to this Plan shall be satisfied, pursuant to section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, by payment of the default amount in Cash on the Effective Date or on such other terms as the parties to such Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases may otherwise agree. In the event of a dispute regarding: (a) the amount of any Cure Claim; (b) the ability of the Reorganized Debtors to provide “adequate assurance of future performance” (within the meaning of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code), if applicable, under the Executory Contract or the Unexpired Lease to be assumed; or (c) any other matter pertaining to assumption, the Cure Claims shall be paid following the entry of a Final Order resolving the dispute and approving the assumption of such Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases; provided, that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may settle any dispute regarding the amount of any Cure Claim without any further notice to or action, order or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

8.3. Claims on Account of the Rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases.

(a) All Proofs of Claim with respect to Claims arising from the rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases, pursuant to this Plan or the Confirmation Order, if any, must be Filed with the Bankruptcy Court within twenty-one (21) days after service of an order of the Bankruptcy Court (including the Confirmation Order) approving such rejection. Any Claim arising from the rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases that becomes an Allowed Claim is classified and shall be treated as a Class 6 General Unsecured Claim.

(b) Any Person or Entity that is required to File a Proof of Claim arising from the rejection of an Executory Contract or an Unexpired Lease that fails to timely do so shall be forever barred, estopped and enjoined from asserting such Claim, and such Claim shall not be enforceable, against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors or the Estates, and the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors and their Estates and their respective assets and property shall be forever discharged from any and all indebtedness and liability with respect to such Claim unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court or as otherwise provided herein. All such Claims shall, as of the Effective Date, be subject to the permanent injunction set forth in Article 10.5 hereof.

8.4. Survival of the Debtors’ Indemnification Obligations.

Except as otherwise provided in this Plan or the Confirmation Order, and subject to the Schedule of Retained Causes of Action, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Indemnification Obligations shall not be discharged, impaired, or otherwise affected by this Plan; provided, that the Debtors or the applicable Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall not indemnify any such officers, directors, agents, or employees of the Debtors for any Claims or Causes of Action arising out of or relating to any act or omission for which indemnification is barred under applicable law or that is excluded under the terms of the foregoing organizational documents or applicable agreements governing the Debtors’ Indemnification Obligations. The Reorganized Debtors shall not indemnify any Persons for any claims or Causes of Action arising out of or relating to any act or omission that is a criminal act or constitutes intentional fraud, gross negligence, or willful misconduct. Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, all such Indemnification Obligations shall be deemed and treated as Executory Contracts that are assumed by the Debtors under this Plan.

8.5. Employee Plans.

(a) All Employee Plans that exist as of the Petition Date shall be assumed on the Effective Date as Executory Contracts pursuant to sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code. For the avoidance of doubt, the assumption of any Employee Plans shall not trigger any applicable change of control, immediate vesting, termination, or similar provisions therein, including any right to severance pay in connection with a change in control. For the avoidance of doubt, unless expressly provided for in a Designated Employee Contract, if an Employee Plan provides in part for an award or potential award of Interests or consideration based on the value of Interests that have not vested into Existing Equity Interests as of the Petition Date, such Employee Plan shall be assumed in all respects other than the provisions of such agreement relating to Interest awards, which interest awards shall be cancelled and discharged.

(b) As of the Effective Date, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors shall continue to honor their obligations under all applicable workers’ compensation programs and in accordance with all applicable workers’ compensation Laws in states in which the Reorganized Debtors operate. Any Claims arising under workers’ compensation programs shall be deemed withdrawn once satisfied without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court; provided, that nothing in this Plan shall limit, diminish, or otherwise alter the Debtors’ or Reorganized Debtors’ defenses, Causes of Action, or other rights under applicable law, including non-bankruptcy Law, with respect to any such workers’ compensation programs; provided further, that nothing herein shall be deemed to impose any obligations on the Debtors in addition to what is provided for under applicable state Law.

8.6. Insurance Policies.

(a) All insurance policies to which any Debtor is a party as of the Effective Date, including any D&O Policy, shall be deemed to be and treated as Executory Contracts and shall be assumed by the applicable Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors and shall continue in full force and effect thereafter in accordance with their respective terms, and all such insurance policies shall vest in the Reorganized Debtors. Coverage for defense and indemnity under the D&O Policies shall remain available to all individuals within the definition of “Insured” in any D&O Policy.

(b) In addition, after the Effective Date, all officers, directors, agents, or employees who served in such capacity at any time before the Effective Date shall be entitled to the full benefits of any D&O Policy (including any “tail” policy) for the full term of such policy regardless of whether such officers, directors, agents, and/or employees remain in such positions after the Effective Date, in each case, to the extent set forth in such policies and on terms no less favorable than the Debtors’ existing policies.

(c) In addition, after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall not terminate or otherwise reduce the coverage under any D&O Policy (including any “tail policy”) in effect as of the Petition Date, and any current directors, officers, members, managers, agents or employees of any of the Debtors who served in such capacity at any time prior to the Effective Date shall be entitled to the full benefits of any such D&O Policy for the full term of such policy regardless of whether such members, managers, directors, and/or officers remain in such positions after the Effective Date to the extent set forth in such policies.

(d) In the event that the Debtors determine that an Allowed Claim is covered in full or in part under one of the Debtors’ insurance policies, no distributions under this Plan shall be made on account of such Allowed Claim unless and until, and solely to the extent that, (i) the Holder of such Allowed Claim has exhausted all remedies with respect to such insurance policy, and (ii) an insurer authorized to issue a coverage position under such insurance policy, or the agent of such insurer, issues a formal determination, which the Debtors in their sole discretion do not contest, that coverage under such insurance policy is excluded or otherwise unavailable for losses arising from such Allowed Claim. Any proceeds available pursuant to one of the Debtors’ insurance policies shall reduce the Allowed amount of a Claim on a dollar-for-dollar basis. To the extent that one or more of the Debtors’ insurers agrees to satisfy a Claim in full or in part (if and to the extent adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction), then immediately

upon such insurers’ agreement, the applicable portion of such Claim may be expunged without a Claim objection having to be Filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. If an applicable insurance policy has a SIR, the Holder of an Insured Claim shall have an Allowed General Unsecured Claim or a Section 510(b) Claim, as applicable, against the applicable Debtor’s Estate solely up to the amount of the SIR that may be established upon the liquidation of the Insured Claim. Such SIR shall be considered satisfied pursuant to this Plan through allowance of the General Unsecured Claim or Section 510(b) Claim, as applicable, solely in the amount of the applicable SIR, if any; provided, that nothing herein obligates the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors to otherwise satisfy any SIR under any insurance policy. Any recovery on account of the Insured Claim in excess of the SIR established upon the liquidation of the Claim shall be recovered solely from the Debtors’ insurance coverage, if any, and only to the extent of available insurance coverage and any proceeds thereof. Nothing in this Plan shall be construed to limit, extinguish, or diminish the insurance coverage that may exist or shall be construed as a finding that liquidated any Claim payable pursuant to an insurance policy.

8.7. Intellectual Property Licenses and Agreements.

All intellectual property contracts, licenses, royalties, or other similar agreements to which the Debtors have any rights or obligations in effect as of the date of the Confirmation Order shall be deemed and treated as Executory Contracts pursuant to this Plan and shall be assumed by the respective Debtors and Reorganized Debtors and shall continue in full force and effect unless any such intellectual property contract, license, royalty, or other similar agreement otherwise is specifically rejected pursuant to a separate order of the Bankruptcy Court or is the subject of a separate rejection motion Filed by the Debtors in accordance with this Plan. Unless otherwise noted hereunder, all other intellectual property contracts, licenses, royalties, or other similar agreements shall vest in the Reorganized Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors may take all actions as may be necessary or appropriate to ensure such vesting as contemplated herein.

8.8. Assignment.

To the extent provided under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable law, any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease transferred and assigned hereunder shall remain in full force and effect for the benefit of the transferee or assignee in accordance with its terms, notwithstanding any provision in such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease (including those of the type set forth in section 365(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code) that prohibits, restricts, or conditions such transfer or assignment. To the extent provided under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable law, any provision that prohibits, restricts, or conditions the assignment or transfer of any such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or that terminates or modifies such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or allows the counterparty to such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease to terminate, modify, recapture, impose any penalty, condition renewal or extension, or modify any term or condition upon any such transfer and assignment, constitutes an unenforceable anti-assignment provision and is void and of no force or effect.

8.9. Modifications, Amendments, Supplements, Restatements, or Other Agreements.

Unless otherwise provided herein or by separate order of the Bankruptcy Court, each Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease that is assumed shall include any and all modifications, amendments, supplements, restatements, or other agreements made directly or indirectly by any agreement, instrument, or other document that in any manner affects such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease.

8.10. Reservation of Rights.

(a) Neither the exclusion nor inclusion of any contract or lease by the Debtors on any exhibit, schedule, or other annex to this Plan or in the Plan Supplement, nor anything contained in this Plan, will constitute an admission by the Debtors that any such contract or lease is or is not in fact an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors or their respective Affiliates has any liability thereunder.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, nothing in this Plan will waive, excuse, limit, diminish, or otherwise alter any of the defenses, claims, Causes of Action, or other rights of the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors under any executory or non-Executory Contract or any unexpired or expired lease.

(c) Nothing in this Plan will increase, augment, or add to any of the duties, obligations, responsibilities, or liabilities of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors under any executory or non-Executory Contract or any unexpired or expired lease.

(d) If there is a dispute regarding a Cure Claim or whether a contract or lease is or was executory or unexpired at the time of assumption or rejection under this Plan, the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall have sixty (60) days following entry of a Final Order resolving such dispute to alter their treatment of such contract or lease by Filing a notice indicating such altered treatment.

10.2. Binding Effect.

The Confirmation Order shall be a judicial determination of the discharge of all Claims and Interests subject to the Effective Date occurring.

Unless otherwise provided herein or in a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, all injunctions or stays arising under or entered during the Chapter 11 Cases under section 105 or 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise, and in existence on the Confirmation Date, shall remain in full force and effect until the later of the Effective Date and the date indicated in the order providing for such injunction or stay.

10.5. Permanent Injunction.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Restructuring Support Agreement, this Plan or the Confirmation Order, from and after the Effective Date, all Persons and Entities are, to the fullest extent provided under Section 524 and other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, permanently enjoined from (1) commencing or continuing, in any manner or in any place, any suit, action or other proceeding of any kind; (2) enforcing, attaching, collecting, or recovering in any manner or means any judgment, award, decree, or order; (3) creating, perfecting, or enforcing any Lien or encumbrance; (4) asserting a right of setoff or subrogation of any kind; or (5) commencing or continuing in any manner any action or other proceeding of any kind, in each case on account of or with respect to any Claim, demand, liability, obligation, debt, right, Cause of Action, Interest, or remedy released or to be released, exculpated or to be exculpated, settled or to be settled, or discharged or to be discharged pursuant to this Plan or the Confirmation Order against any Person or Entity so released, discharged, or exculpated (or the property or estate of any Person or Entity so released, discharged, or exculpated). All injunctions or stays provided for in the Chapter 11 Cases under Sections 105 or 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise, and in existence on the Confirmation Date, shall remain in full force and effect until the Effective Date.

No Person or Entity may commence or pursue a Claim or Cause of Action, as applicable, of any kind against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Exculpated Parties, or the Released Parties, as applicable, that relates to or is reasonably likely to relate to any act or omission in connection with, relating to, or arising out of a Claim or Cause of Action, as applicable, subject to Article IX hereof, without the Bankruptcy Court (i) first determining, after notice and a hearing, that such Claim or Cause of Action, as applicable, represents a colorable Claim of any kind, and (ii) specifically authorizing such Person or Entity to bring such Claim or Cause of Action, as applicable, against any such Debtor, Reorganized Debtor, Exculpated Party, or Released Party, as applicable; provided, that the foregoing shall only apply to Claims or Causes of Action brought against a Released Party if such Person or Entity bringing such Claim or Cause of Action is a

Releasing Party. At the hearing for the Bankruptcy Court to determine whether such Claim or Cause of Action represents a colorable Claim of any kind, the Bankruptcy Court may, or shall if any Debtor, Reorganized Debtor, Exculpated Party, Released Party, or other party in interest requests by motion (oral motion being sufficient), direct that such Person or Entity seeking to commence or pursue such Claim or Cause of Action File a proposed complaint with the Bankruptcy Court embodying such Claim or Cause of Action, such complaint satisfying the applicable Rules of Federal Procedure, including Rule 8 and Rule 9 (as applicable), which the Bankruptcy Court shall assess before making a determination. For the avoidance of doubt, any party that obtains such determination and authorization and subsequently wishes to amend the authorized complaint or petition to add any Claims or Causes of Action not explicitly included in the authorized complaint or petition must obtain authorization from the Bankruptcy Court before filing any such amendment in the court where such complaint or petition is pending. The Bankruptcy Court reserves jurisdiction to adjudicate any such claims to the maximum extent provided by the law.

Except to the extent otherwise allowed hereunder, any term of any prepetition policy, prepetition contract, or other prepetition obligation applicable to a Debtor shall be void and of no further force or effect with respect to any Debtor to the extent that such policy, contract, or other obligation is conditioned on, creates an obligation of the Debtor as a result of, or gives rise to a right of any Entity based on any of the following: (a) the insolvency or financial condition of a Debtor; (b) the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases; (c) the Confirmation or consummation of this Plan, including any change of control that shall occur as a result of such consummation; or (d) the restructuring.

(h) Restriction on Termination.

(i) Termination Date and Survival. The date on which this Agreement is terminated in accordance with this Article 5 with respect to a Party shall be referred to as the “Termination Date” with respect to such Party, and the provisions of this Agreement shall terminate on the Termination Date; provided, that Sections 1.01, 1.02, 3.01, 5.01(i), 5.01(j), 5.01(k), 8.01, 8.02, 8.05, 8.06, 8.07, 8.08, 8.09, 8.10, 8.11, 8.12, 8.13, 8.14, and 8.15 hereof shall survive the Termination Date.

(j) Effect of Termination. Upon the Termination Date, this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void and have no further force or effect, each Party hereto shall be released from its commitments, undertakings and agreements under or related to this Agreement, and there shall be no liability or obligation hereunder on the part of any Party hereto; provided, that in no event shall any such termination relieve a Party hereto from (a) liability for its breach or non-performance of its obligations hereunder prior to such Termination Date, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement by any other Party, or (b) obligations under this Agreement which expressly survive any such termination pursuant to Section 5.01(i). Upon any Termination Event, unless the Plan Effective Date has occurred, any and all consents, tenders, waivers, forbearances and votes delivered by a Consenting Creditor in connection with the Transactions automatically shall be deemed, for all purposes, to be null and void ab initio. If this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with this Article 5 at a time when permission of the Bankruptcy Court shall be required for a Consenting Creditor to change or withdraw (or cause to change or withdraw) its vote to accept the Plan, the Company shall consent to any attempt by such Consenting Creditor to change or withdraw (or cause to change or withdraw) such vote at such time; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed a waiver of the Company’s right to challenge the validity of such termination. For the avoidance of doubt, the termination of this Agreement shall not render the Second Supplemental Indenture or any Transactions made in accordance herewith before the date of such termination null and/or void. Each of the Parties to the extent enforceable waives any right to assert that the exercise of termination rights under this Agreement is subject to the automatic stay provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and expressly stipulates and consents hereunder to the prospective modification of the automatic stay provisions of the Bankruptcy Code for purposes of exercising termination rights under this Agreement, to the extent the Bankruptcy Court determines that such relief is required.

(k) No Waiver. If the Transactions are not consummated, nothing herein shall be construed as a waiver by any Party of any or all of such Party’s rights, and each Party expressly reserves any and all of its respective rights as if the Parties had not entered this Agreement. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 408 and any other applicable rules of evidence, this Agreement and all negotiations relating hereto shall not be admissible into evidence in any proceeding other than a proceeding to enforce the Agreement’s terms.

(c) A Consenting Creditor that Transfers Applicable Existing Debt to a Permitted Transferee in accordance with the terms of this Article 6 shall (i) be deemed to relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement to the extent of the rights and obligations in respect of such Transferred Applicable Existing Debt, (ii) not be liable to any Party to this Agreement for the failure of the Permitted Transferee to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; provided, that in no event shall any such Transfer relieve (x) a Consenting Creditor hereto from liability for its breach or non-performance of its obligations hereunder prior to the date of such Transfer or (y) a Backstop Party from its obligations pursuant to the Backstop Agreement and (iii) within five (5) Business Days of such Transfer, deliver written notice of the Transfer to the Company, Latham, the Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group Advisors, Ropes, and Kirkland, which notice may be provided through counsel and shall include the amount and type of Applicable Existing Debt that was Transferred.

(d) Except as provided in Section 6.01(h), this Agreement shall not limit, restrict, or otherwise affect in any way, any right, authority, or power of any Consenting Creditor to acquire additional Existing Debt after the Execution Date. Any such acquired Existing Debt (including pursuant to an Open Trade) shall automatically and immediately upon acquisition by the Consenting Creditor be deemed to be Applicable Existing Debt and to be subject to the terms of this Agreement. Within five (5) Business Days of any acquisition (calculated based on the settled trade debt) of Existing Debt by a Consenting Creditor from a Person that, to the acquiring party’s actual knowledge, is not a Consenting Creditor (including any Qualified Marketmaker that is not a Consenting Creditor), such Consenting Creditor shall deliver written notice of the acquisition to the Company, Latham, the Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group Advisors, and Ropes, which notice may be provided through counsel and shall include the amount and type of Existing Debt that was acquired.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Applicable Existing Debt that is Transferred to or by a Consenting Creditor pursuant to an Open Trade specified on the applicable Consenting Creditor’s signature page, or as part of a short transaction, entered into by such Consenting Creditor prior to, and pending as of the date of, such Consenting Creditor’s entry into this Agreement shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement, as provided in Section 6.01(d), and shall be permitted to participate in the Transactions on the terms for Consenting Convertible Noteholders, so long as such trade closes or Applicable Existing Debt is transferred prior to the consummation of the Transactions.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parties understand that the Consenting Creditors may be engaged in a wide range of financial services and businesses, and, in furtherance of the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, the terms and obligations set forth in this Agreement shall apply only to the specific signatory, portfolio management team, trading desk(s), and/or business group(s) on behalf of which the Consenting Creditor has executed this Agreement, and shall not apply to any other portfolio management team, trading desk, business group, subsidiary, or Affiliate of the Consenting Creditor unless they separately become a party hereto.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) a Qualified Marketmaker that acquires any Existing Debt subject to this Agreement held by a Consenting Creditor, with the purpose and intent of acting as a Qualified Marketmaker for such Existing Debt, shall not be required to execute and deliver a Joinder in respect of such Existing Debt, if such Qualified Marketmaker transfers such Existing Debt (by purchase, sale, assignment, or other similar means) to a Permitted Transferee within ten (10) Business Days after the Qualified Marketmaker acquires such Existing Debt; provided, that a Qualified Marketmaker’s failure to comply with this Section 6.01(g) shall result in the Transfer of such Existing Debt to such Qualified Marketmaker being deemed void ab initio, and (ii) to the extent any Consenting Creditor is acting in its capacity as a Qualified Marketmaker, it may transfer any ownership interests in the Existing Debt that it acquires from a holder of Existing Debt that is not a Consenting Creditor to a transferee that is not a Consenting Creditor at the time of such transfer without the requirement that the transferee be a Permitted Transferee.

(h) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Transfer shall be permitted hereunder to any transferee, and no Person shall be a Permitted Transferee hereunder, to the extent that the equity securities beneficially owned by such transferee/Person and its Attribution Parties, when aggregated with the equity securities owned by the Consenting Creditors already a party hereto prior to such Transfer and their respective Attribution Parties, would equal 5% or more of the outstanding common equity of the Company. The Consenting Creditors acknowledge and agree that any Transfer of the Existing Debt that does not comply with the terms and procedures set forth herein, including this Section 6.01(h), shall be deemed void ab initio, and each other Party shall have the right to enforce the voiding of such Transfer.

(i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, without the prior written consent of the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, no Transfer of (or in respect of) CRD Loans by a Consenting Creditor shall be permitted hereunder unless such Permitted Transferee is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code and provides the Company a duly executed IRS Form W-9 (a “U.S. W-9 Provider”) and no Consenting Creditor that holds CRD Loans shall take any action to cause CRD Loans to be held for U.S. federal income tax purposes by a person that is not a U.S. W-9 Provider. Renesas acknowledges and agrees that any Transfer of the CRD Loan that does not comply with the terms and procedures set forth herein, including this Section 6.01(i), shall be deemed void ab initio, and each other Party shall have the right to enforce the voiding of such Transfer.

ARTICLE 8

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 8.01 Tax Treatment. The Company and Renesas agree to treat, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (i) Renesas Warrants issued as a portion of the consideration paid in respect of the Renesas Claims, and (ii) New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes and the CRD, in each case, as a “security” of the Company for purposes of Section 354 and 356 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and not as a contingent payment debt instrument within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1275-4. Further, the Company and Consenting Creditors agree to treat, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the New 2L Convertible Notes and New 2L Takeback Notes, in each case, not as a contingent payment debt instrument within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1275-4. The Company and the Consenting Senior Secured Noteholders agree to treat, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the issuance of the New Senior Secured Notes as not giving rise to a “significant modification” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1001-3(e)) with respect to the Senior Secured Notes or an exchange or other disposition of the Senior Secured Notes by the Senior Secured Noteholders to the extent such position is

permitted under applicable law; provided, the Company shall cooperate in good faith with the Consenting Senior Secured Noteholders following the date hereof to support such treatment. In addition, the Parties acknowledge that, based on the quotes available on the interdealer markets, the Convertible Notes were, for the quarter ending on March 31, 2025, and are expected to be, for the quarter ending on June 30, 2025, “regularly traded on an established securities market” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.897-1 and 1.897-9T and, if trading activity on the Convertible Notes continues for all or any portion of subsequent quarters, that the Convertible Notes are expected to continue to be “regularly traded on an established securities” market for such purposes and for such quarters. Each Party shall file all tax returns consistent with, and take no position inconsistent with, the treatment set forth in this Section 8.01 (whether in audits, tax returns or otherwise) unless required to do so pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code. The Parties agree to cooperate in good faith (and without undue cost or expense to the Company Parties) (x) to eliminate or minimize any applicable withholding tax imposed on the Transactions (including (a) each Consenting Creditor providing a complete and correct executed IRS Form W-9 or W-8, as applicable, to the extent permitted by law, and (b) if reasonably requested by the Company with respect to a Consenting Convertible Noteholder that intends to report the Transactions as tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such Consenting Convertible Noteholder providing a notice under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1445-2(d)(2), in each case on or about the Plan Effective Date; provided, that, the provisions of this sentence shall not be construed to require a Consenting Convertible Noteholder to report all or any portion of the Transaction as being tax-free or tax-deferred for any applicable U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. income tax purposes) and (y) in determining whether any interest in the Reorganized Parent is a United States real property interest within the meaning of Section 897 of the Code, to the extent permitted by applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, in any case where any Consenting Creditor fails to deliver a duly executed IRS Form W-9 or applicable IRS Form W-8 or any other tax form or certificate to eliminate any applicable withholding tax, the Company’s sole remedy shall be to withhold required amounts under applicable tax law.

Section 8.02 Entire Agreement; Prior Negotiations. This Agreement, including all of the exhibits attached hereto, constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, and supersedes all other prior negotiations, agreements and understandings, whether written, oral, or implied, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement (without, for the avoidance of doubt, limiting the Company Parties’ obligations hereunder to pay Restructuring Expenses in accordance with the terms of any previously executed agreements regarding the payment of professional fees); provided, however, that any confidentiality agreement or non-disclosure agreement executed by any Party shall survive this Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect, subject to the terms thereof, irrespective of the terms hereof.

Section 8.03 Reservation of Rights. If the Transactions contemplated herein are not consummated, or if this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms (except as a result of the occurrence of the Plan Effective Date), nothing shall be construed herein as a waiver by any Party of any or all of such Party’s rights, remedies or defenses, and the Parties expressly reserve any and all of their respective rights, remedies or defenses. No Consenting Creditor hereby waives any default or event of default with respect to the Existing Debt, and no provision of Section 3.02 shall require any Consenting Creditor to waive any default or event of default with respect to the Existing Debt, except as set forth in the Restructuring Term Sheet or Definitive Documents after or simultaneous with the consummation of the Transactions.

Section 8.04 Counterparts; Execution. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall constitute one and the same instrument, and the counterparts may be delivered by facsimile transmission or by electronic mail in portable document format (PDF) or by DocuSign. This Agreement may be executed on behalf of one or more Consenting Creditors by such Consenting Creditor’s investment manager, advisor or sub-advisor, which is a signatory hereto solely in its capacity as the investment manager, advisor or sub-advisor of such Consenting Creditor.

Section 8.05 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement may not be modified, amended, or supplemented, and no provision of this Agreement may be waived, without the prior written consent of the Company Parties, the Required Consenting Senior Secured Noteholders, the Required Consenting Convertible Noteholders, and Renesas; provided, that to the extent such modification, amendment or supplement has a material, disproportionate and adverse effect on a single Consenting Creditor or group of Consenting Creditors, and any such Consenting Creditor does not consent, if applicable, each such Consenting Creditor adversely affected thereby shall have the right to terminate this Agreement as to itself; provided, further, that this Section 8.05 and Section 8.07 may not be modified, amended, or supplemented without the consent of all Parties; provided, further, that any modification or amendment of the Restructuring Term Sheet for which a greater consent is therein explicitly required shall require the consent specified in the Restructuring Term Sheet to amend.

(b) No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, whether or not such provisions are similar, nor shall any waiver of a provision of this Agreement be deemed a continuing waiver of such provision.

Section 8.06 Headings. The headings of the sections, paragraphs, and subsections of this Agreement are included for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of the provisions contained herein.

Section 8.07 Acknowledgments; Obligations Several. Notwithstanding that this Agreement is being executed by multiple Consenting Creditors, the obligations of the Consenting Creditors under this Agreement are several and neither joint nor joint and several. No Consenting Creditor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations or any breach of any other Consenting Creditor under this Agreement, and nothing contained herein and no action taken by any Consenting Creditor pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the Consenting Creditors as a partnership, an association or a joint venture of any kind, or to create a presumption that (i) the Consenting Creditors are in any way acting other than in their individual capacities or (ii) any Consenting Creditor is in any way acting in concert or as a member of a “group” with any other Consenting Creditor within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act. None of the Consenting Creditors shall have any fiduciary duty or other duties or responsibilities in any kind

or form to each other, the Company Parties or any of the Company’s other lenders, noteholders or stakeholders as a result of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Consenting Creditor acknowledges that no other Consenting Creditor will be acting as agent of such Consenting Creditor in connection with monitoring such Consenting Creditor’s investment or enforcing its rights under this Agreement, the Definitive Documents, or any other documents to be entered into in connection with the consummation of the Transactions. Each Consenting Creditor acknowledges to each other Consenting Creditor, that: (a) the Transactions described herein are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Company Parties and the Company Parties’ Affiliates and each Consenting Creditor; (b) it has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate; (c) it is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the Transactions contemplated hereby; (d) the Consenting Creditors and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the other Consenting Creditors, the Company Parties, and the Company Parties’ Affiliates or the Affiliates of other Consenting Creditors, and the Consenting Creditors have no obligation to disclose any of such interests to any other Consenting Creditor or the Affiliates of other Consenting Creditors; and (e) it is not an insider of the Company. Each Consenting Creditor acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any other Consenting Creditor and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and that it has not relied on the credit analysis and decision or due diligence investigation of any other Consenting Creditor. The Consenting Creditors have no agreement, arrangement, or understanding with respect to acting together for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting, or disposing of any shares of common stock or other capital stock of the Company and are not intended to be, and shall not constitute, or be presumed or deemed to be, a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. All rights under this Agreement are separately granted to each Consenting Creditor by the Company Parties and vice versa, and the use of a single document is for the convenience of the Company Parties. The decision to commit to enter into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement has been made independently.

Section 8.08 Specific Performance; Damages. All remedies that are available at law or in equity, including specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief, to any Party for a breach of this Agreement by another Party shall be available to the non-breaching Party (and for the avoidance of doubt, it is agreed by the other Parties that money damages may not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by any Party and each non-breaching Party will be entitled to seek specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy of any such breach); provided, that in connection with any remedy for specific performance, injunctive or other equitable relief asserted in connection with this Agreement, each Party agrees to waive the requirement for the securing or posting of a bond in connection with any remedy and to waive the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages. All rights, powers, and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available at law or in equity will be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise of any remedy, power, or remedy by any Party will not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power, or remedy by such Party or any other Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall any Party or their representatives be liable to any other Party hereunder for any punitive, incidental, consequential, special or indirect damages, including the loss of future revenue or income or opportunity, relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement.

Section 8.09 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without regard to any choice of law provision that would require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. By the execution and delivery of this Agreement, each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees for itself that any legal action, suit, or proceeding against it with respect to any matter arising under or out of or in connection with this Agreement or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment rendered in any such action, suit, or proceeding may be brought in either a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction in the State and County of New York, Borough of Manhattan. By the execution and delivery of this Agreement, each of the Parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the personal jurisdiction of each such court, solely for purposes of any action, suit, or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or for the recognition or enforcement of any judgment rendered or order entered in any such action, suit, or proceeding. EACH PARTY HERETO UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING REFERRED TO ABOVE. Each Party (a) certifies that no representative, agent, or attorney of any other Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other Party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other Parties have been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 8.09. Each Party hereto agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by registered mail addressed to such Person shall be effective service of process against such Person for any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought in any such court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases, all proceedings contemplated by this Section 8.09 shall be brought in the Bankruptcy Court.

Unless expressly stated herein, this Agreement shall be solely for the benefit of the Parties, and no other Person shall be a third-party beneficiary hereof, it being understood by the Parties that this provision does not impair the ability of the Senior Secured Notes Trustee to rely upon the provisions included herein with respect to the consents of the Senior Secured Noteholders to the execution and delivery of the Second Supplemental Indenture.

Section 8.13 Publicity; Non-Disclosure.

ANY SUCH OFFER OR SOLICITATION WILL COMPLY WITH ALL APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS AND/OR PROVISIONS OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE.

THIS CONTINGENT CONSIDERATION TERM SHEET DOES NOT ADDRESS ALL TERMS THAT WOULD BE REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROPOSED RESTRUCTURING TRANSACTIONS OR THAT WILL BE SET FORTH IN THE DEFINITIVE DOCUMENTATION.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Contingent Consideration Term Sheet and the undertakings contemplated herein are subject in all respects to the negotiation, execution, and delivery of definitive documentation acceptable to the Company Parties and Renesas, as applicable, in accordance with the consent rights set forth herein and in the RSA.

Term Sheet

Regulatory Approvals		The Debtors, Reorganized Debtors, and Renesas, as applicable, shall use best efforts to provide any necessary or desirable diligence, including all screening diligence questions, and file all Regulatory Approvals. The Company Parties and Renesas shall take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to obtain the Regulatory Approvals, including taking all commercially reasonable actions in response to applicable regulatory authority requests of the Company Parties and/or Renesas in accordance with the RSA, until the earlier of (i) a good faith agreement between the Company Parties and Renesas that it is more likely than not that the Regulatory Approvals will not be obtained, (ii) two (2) years from the Plan Effective Date; provided, if upon two (2) years from the Plan Effective Date the Company Parties and Renesas agree, in good faith, that Regulatory Approval is more likely than not to be obtained prior to three (3) years from the Plan Effective Date, then upon three (3) years from the Plan Effective Date (the “*Regulatory Trigger Deadline*”), or (iii) the Company Parties and Renesas shall have received all Regulatory Approvals; provided that nothing in subsections (i) to (iii) shall be interpreted to alter the standards of effort set forth in the Agreement. With respect to costs incurred by Renesas in connection with obtaining the Regulatory Approvals, the Definitive Documentation shall provide that the Company Parties shall pay the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of the Renesas Advisors incurred in connection with securing the Regulatory Approvals prior to receiving all Regulatory Approvals or the Regulatory Trigger Deadline. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent Renesas obtains all Regulatory Approvals prior to the date of the Regulatory Trigger Deadline, the Regulatory Trigger Deadline shall be deemed not to have occurred.

Consideration		Renesas shall, on the Plan Effective Date, receive the consideration set forth in the Restructuring Term Sheet as described therein (the “*Base Consideration”). Provided, however, that if, on the Plan Effective Date, Renesas has not obtained the Regulatory Approvals (the “Distribution Event”), the Plan shall account for the following incremental consideration (the “Contingent Additional Consideration”), in addition to Renesas’s right to the Base Consideration or proceeds from the sale of the Base Consideration (subject to the treatment herein): • $15 million of cash (the “Contingent Cash”), which is to be held in escrow on terms reasonably satisfactory to Renesas, the Consenting Senior Secured Noteholders, and the Company, and at the Company’s expense until the Regulatory Trigger Deadline; • $15 million of incremental New 2L Takeback Notes (“Incremental New 2L Takeback Notes”); • 2.0% of New Common Stock as of the Plan Effective Date (the “Contingent Shares*”), which shall be subject to dilution from the conversion of the New 2L Convertible Notes, the conversion of the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes, the MIP, the LTIP, and the exercise of the Renesas Warrants; and


		• the Renesas Warrants Term Extension (which shall only become effective as of the Regulatory Trigger Deadline). The Contingent Additional Consideration shall, as applicable, be issued and effectuated in the manner described opposite the heading “Treatment of Base Consideration and Contingent Additional Consideration” below and subject to the terms and conditions of the RSA and this Contingent Consideration Term Sheet.
Release of Contingent Additional Consideration		• If the Regulatory Trigger Deadline occurs, Renesas shall be entitled to the Contingent Additional Consideration in full (including, without limitation, its rights to proceeds), as applicable. At such time, the Contingent Cash shall immediately be released to Renesas in full from escrow, the Incremental New 2L Takeback Notes shall be issued to Renesas, the Renesas Warrants Term Extension become effective, and the Contingent Shares (or economic entitlement to such Contingent Shares) shall be subject to and distributed through the ELOC/ATM Programs (as defined below) and Registered Primary Offerings (as defined below). • If, prior to the Regulatory Trigger Deadline, Renesas obtains all Regulatory Approvals, the Contingent Additional Consideration shall be distributed as follows: • $10 million of the Contingent Cash shall be remitted to or retained by Wolfspeed; • $5 million of the Contingent Cash to those Senior Secured Noteholders entitled thereto under the Note Purchase Agreement (on account of the Commitment Fee Amount), which shall be released no later than five (5) Business Days after the Regulatory Approvals have been obtained; • The Incremental New 2L Takeback Notes shall not be issued; • The Contingent Shares shall be distributed to the holders of Existing Equity Interests; and • The Renesas Warrants Term Extension shall not be implemented.
Treatment of Base Consideration and Contingent Additional Consideration		To the maximum extent permitted by law, the issuance and/or authorization of the Base Consideration (including the issuance of New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes to Renesas) and, if applicable, Contingent Additional Consideration shall be effective as of the Plan Effective Date, and issued pursuant to Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code. Upon receipt of certification of all Regulatory Approvals or written confirmation by Renesas’s authorized representative of the granting of such Regulatory Approvals from the applicable regulatory authorities (where such certifications are not issued by the applicable regulatory authorities) for Renesas, the Company shall immediately issue directly to Renesas (i) all


		Base Consideration not previously distributed to Renesas, less any portions of the Base Consideration in respect of which Renesas has received Sale Proceeds (as defined below) pursuant to the ELOC/ATM Programs and Registered Primary Offerings, in accordance with the Plan and Confirmation Order (“*Renesas Base Distribution Date*”), and, to the extent occurring after the Regulatory Trigger Deadline has occurred, (ii) the Contingent Additional Consideration, less any portions of the Contingent Additional Consideration in respect of which Renesas has received Sale Proceeds pursuant to the ELOC/ATM Programs and Registered Primary Offerings, in accordance with the Plan and Confirmation Order. Upon such date, and subject to the foregoing, the Contingent Additional Consideration shall be released pursuant to the terms of “Release of Contingent Additional Consideration” as set forth above. • For the avoidance of doubt, (i) all Renesas Warrants shall be issued and exercisable into New Common Stock at such time or later date in accordance with the terms thereof, (ii) all New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes shall be convertible into New Common Stock at such time or later date in accordance with the terms thereof, and (iii) any Reserve Shares (as defined below) that would be issued as a result of the conversion of any New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes or exercise of the Renesas Warrants would not be transferred to Renesas pending such conversion or exercise in accordance with the terms of the respective instruments, while the number of Reserve Shares already converted from the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes or exercised by the Renesas Warrants shall be transferred to Renesas (unless those have been sold according to a Direction Letter as defined below). • The board seat reserved for the individual Renesas designates to sit on the board of directors of the Reorganized Parent shall be immediately filled by such individual in accordance with the Reorganized Parent’s corporate governance documents, and in accordance with the Restructuring Term Sheet. The individual appointed by Renesas shall serve as a member of the board of directors of the Reorganized Parent.

Reserve Shares and Sales Agent		The Plan, the Confirmation Order, and the Renesas Contingent Documentation (as defined below) shall provide that, if the Plan Effective Date occurs prior to Renesas receiving Regulatory Approvals, the Reorganized Parent shall enter into an agreement on the Plan Effective Date with Renesas, granting Renesas designation rights regarding the disposition of, and right to cash proceeds from the disposition of, the Base Consideration and, if applicable, Contingent Additional Consideration after the Regulatory Trigger Deadline (together with any ancillary related documentation, the “*Disposition Agreement*”). Pursuant to the Disposition Agreement, the Reorganized Parent shall create an equity line of credit on the Plan Effective Date (or on the date that is nineteen (19) weeks after the Plan Effective Date if all Regulatory Approvals, other than CFIUS approval or the Additional Approvals, have been obtained) and, once the Reorganized Parent is eligible to use Form S-3, create an “at the market” offering program (collectively, the

“ELOC/ATM Programs”) to facilitate the sale of Reserve Shares (as defined below), and the Reorganized Parent shall (a) make all necessary registration and regulatory filings to establish and maintain the programs, and (b) enter into all documentation reasonably necessary to establish and maintain such programs on the Plan Effective Date, including, without limitation, to (i) cause the Reorganized Parent’s legal and accounting advisors to provide the necessary legal opinions and comfort letters as is necessary or customary to enter into and execute trades under the ELOC/ATM Programs and (ii) provide materials responsive to customary due diligence requests (collectively, such documentation, including the Disposition Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, and any documentation related to the ELOC/ATM Programs or any Registered Primary Offerings, the “Renesas Contingent Documentation”). The Renesas Contingent Documentation shall (i) be entered into on the Plan Effective Date (effective on the date that is nineteen (19) weeks after the Plan Effective Date if all Regulatory Approvals, other than CFIUS approval or the Additional Approvals, have been obtained) and (ii) provide for the retention and onboarding of the Sales Agent (as defined below) as of the Plan Effective Date (or the date that is nineteen (19) weeks after the Plan Effective Date if all Regulatory Approvals, other than CFIUS approval or the Additional Approvals, have been obtained).

On the Plan Effective Date, the Company shall reserve on its books and records New Common Stock for issuance in an amount equal to the number of Consideration Shares, the number of shares into which the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes may be converted as if they had a conversion feature in accordance with the Restructuring Term Sheet as of the Plan Effective Date (the “Notes Consideration Shares”), and the number of shares into which the Renesas Warrants may be exercised for as if they had been issued in accordance with the Restructuring Term Sheet on the Plan Effective Date (the “Warrant Consideration Shares,” and collectively with the Consideration Shares and the Notes Consideration Shares, the “Reserve Shares”).

Pursuant to the Disposition Agreement and other Renesas Contingent Documentation and the ELOC/ATM Programs, Renesas may issue direction letters (each a “Direction Letter”) to the Reorganized Parent exercising its right (i) to designate Reserve Shares for issuance and sale and to receive cash proceeds from the sale of the Reserve Shares and (ii) to direct the Reorganized Parent to instruct the sales agent administering the ELOC/ATM Programs or underwriter(s) for any Registered Primary Offerings (in any case, the “Sales Agent”) to sell part or all of the Reserve Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, the Direction Letter shall specify, among other things, (i) the number of the Reserve Shares to be issued and the portion of the Consideration Shares, the Warrant Consideration Shares or the Notes Consideration Shares to which such Direction Letter relates, (ii) whether such sales are conducted through the ELOC/ATM Programs or Registered Primary Offerings, and (iii) may specify the minimum price at which any sale of such Reserve Shares by the Sales Agent may be executed.


		Upon delivery of a Direction Letter to the Reorganized Parent, the Reorganized Parent shall (i) promptly notify and direct the Sales Agent to sell such Reserve Shares, including by providing the Sales Agent with the applicable direction letter and other customary documentation needed by the Sales Agent to effectuate the sale transaction, and (ii) issue the required Reserve Shares to the Sales Agent in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Contingent Consideration Term Sheet and the Renesas Contingent Documentation in connection with the Sales Agent consummating such sale transaction (the cash proceeds from such sale transaction, the “*Sale Proceeds*”). All Sale Proceeds shall be promptly remitted directly to Renesas without any reduction, set-off, or any other deductions other than the Sales Agent’s commission or discounts. Upon remittance of the Sale Proceeds to Renesas, Renesas’s entitlement to the Base Consideration and, if applicable after the Regulatory Trigger Deadline, the Contingent Additional Consideration (including any cash proceeds from the applicable portion therefrom and any Reserve Shares related thereto) shall be reduced accordingly, including (i) principal amount of the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes, if applicable, shall be reduced by the applicable amounts that are deemed to have been converted and (ii) number of shares into which the Renesas Warrants are exercisable, if applicable, shall also be reduced by the applicable amount of Warrant Consideration Shares so sold, if any.

		Any sales under the ELOC/ATM Programs and Registered Primary Offerings shall be subject to market conditions, applicable laws, and customary quarterly blackout rights, and shall only take place during open trading window periods under Reorganized Parent’s insider trading policy. Reorganized Parent reserves the right to impose up to two (2) blackout periods for an aggregate of up to ninety (90) days in any twelve (12) month period when it is in possession of material non-public information during which sales under the ELOC/ATM Programs or Registered Primary Offerings shall not be permitted, if sales under the ELOC/ATM Programs or Registered Primary Offerings would have a detrimental impact on alternate transactions (including, but not limited to, merger, acquisition or offering transactions) being contemplated by Reorganized Parent or if Reorganized Parent reasonably believes it would require disclosure that would meaningfully interfere with an alternate company transaction or otherwise cause meaningful harm to Reorganized Parent. For the avoidance of doubt, Renesas shall have the right to demand the filing of a draft registration statement related to any Primary Registration Statement during any blackout period; provided that the Company shall not be required to publicly file such Primary Registration Statement until the day following the expiration of such blackout period. In addition, Renesas agrees not to use the ELOC/ATM Programs or Registered Primary Offerings, and to be locked up (for a customary period not longer than the lock-up period imposed on the Reorganized Parent), in connection with any underwritten offering being conducted by Reorganized Parent for its own account or for the account of any other person, in each case even if it does not participate in such underwritten offering, subject to the following: (i) Renesas’s ability to have customary piggyback rights on any underwritten offering proposed by the Reorganized Parent and (ii) that such lock-up requirement shall no longer apply when Renesas owns less than 10% of the New Common Stock on a fully diluted basis and Renesas no longer has a director on the board of directors of Reorganized Parent.


		In connection with the ELOC/ATM Programs, Reorganized Parent shall bear all administrative and registration costs, including Reorganized Parent’s legal and accounting fees, and Renesas shall bear any and all agent’s, banks’ or underwriters’ underwriting, private placement, structuring or other fees (including discounts and commissions, but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any legal fees of the Sales Agent(s) administering the ELOC/ATM Programs), as well as Renesas financial, legal and other Renesas advisor fees. The “ELOC/ATM Programs Termination Date” for the ELOC/ATM Programs shall be five (5) Business Days after the earlier of (i) the Renesas Base Distribution Date, (ii) the disposition of all properties related to the Base Consideration and, if applicable, Contingent Additional Consideration subject to the Renesas Contingent Documentation, and (iii) ten (10) years from the Plan Effective Date provided, that the Renesas Contingent Documentation shall provide for a reasonable period of winddown upon each such event (if necessary). Upon the ELOC/ATM Programs Termination Date, Renesas shall receive the remaining Base Consideration and, if applicable, the Contingent Additional Consideration, not previously distributed to Renesas, less any portions of the Base Consideration and, if applicable, the Contingent Additional Consideration, in respect of which Renesas has received Sale Proceeds pursuant to the ELOC/ATM Programs and Registered Primary Offerings. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Renesas be entitled to, or have designation rights to direct the sale or disposition of or the realization of proceeds from, Reserve Shares representing the Contingent Shares or Consideration Shares representing the Contingent Shares, in each case until Renesas is entitled to the Contingent Additional Consideration due to the occurrence of the Regulatory Trigger Deadline.

Notes and Warrants		If Renesas exercises its designation right in respect of any New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes, then upon the Sales Agent remitting the Sale Proceeds therefrom to Renesas, the Reorganized Parent shall be deemed to have settled in cash that portion of the designated New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes as provided for in the Direction Letter. On or prior to the expiration of the conversion rights described in the Restructuring Term Sheet, Renesas will have the option to deliver a Direction Letter instructing the Reorganized Parent to reduce the principal amount of the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes according to their terms for conversion. For the avoidance of doubt, the Reserve Shares that were underlying the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes that were eligible for sale shall remain eligible for sale following such conversion. On or prior to the expiration of the exercise rights described in the Restructuring Term Sheet, Renesas will have the option to deliver a Direction Letter instructing the Reorganized Parent to reduce the number of Renesas Warrants Renesas would be entitled to receive on the Renesas Base Distribution Date outstanding. For the avoidance of doubt, the Reserve Shares that were underlying the Renesas Warrants that were eligible for sale shall remain eligible for sale following such exercise.

Primary Registration Rights

Prior to receipt of certification of all applicable Regulatory Approvals or written confirmation (if such certifications are not issued by the authorities) for Renesas, the Registration Rights Agreement will provide that Renesas may require the Reorganized Parent to, among other things, file a registration statement (the “Primary Registration Statement”) no later than thirty (30) days following a written request by Renesas to conduct registered offerings on a primary basis (“Registered Primary Offerings”) and pay the proceeds of such Registered Primary Offerings directly to Renesas; provided that if all Regulatory Approvals, other than CFIUS approval or the Additional Approvals, have been obtained, Renesas shall not have the ability to exercise the right to require the Reorganized Parent to file a Primary Registration Statement to conduct a Registered Primary Offering until nineteen (19) weeks after the Plan Effective Date. Renesas reserves the right to cancel a Registered Primary Offering. Upon remittance of such proceeds to Renesas, Renesas’s entitlement to cash proceeds from the sale of the Reserve Shares or the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes or Renesas Warrants (or Reserve Shares underlying the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes and Renesas Warrants) shall be reduced or cancelled (as applicable) by the amount of sold or disposed of Reserve Shares (and with respect to the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes, the principal amount shall be reduced by the amount of the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes that are deemed to have been converted). For the avoidance of doubt, all proceeds shall be remitted directly to Renesas without any reduction, set-off, or any other deductions other than the Sales Agent’s commission.

There shall be customary piggyback rights, including that (i) any Renesas-initiated offering shall have priority over sales by the Reorganized Parent with respect to such offering and (ii) any Reorganized Parent-initiated offering shall have priority over sales by Renesas with respect to such offering. Except as described herein, the Reorganized Parent will agree not to grant any other person senior or conflicting shelf, demand or piggyback registration rights.

The Reorganized Parent shall, (a) at its sole cost and expense, make all necessary registration and regulatory filings to establish and maintain the Primary Registration Statement (either Form S-1 or Form S-3, hereinafter the same) to conduct Registered Primary Offerings, (b) enter into all documentation reasonably necessary to establish and maintain the Primary Registration Statement, (c) cause the Reorganized Parent’s legal and accounting advisors to provide the necessary legal opinions and comfort letters as is necessary to conduct Registered Primary Offerings, and (d) provide materials responsive to customary due diligence requests.

Renesas shall have the right to demand up to one (1) Registered Primary Offering in any twelve-month period; provided, however, upon the Reorganized Parent becoming Form S-3 eligible, Renesas shall have the right to demand up to two (2) Registered Primary Offerings in any twelve-month period.

In connection with the registration rights under the Registration Rights Agreement, Reorganized Parent shall bear all administrative and registration costs, including Reorganized Parent’s legal and accounting fees, and Renesas shall bear any and all agent’s, banks’ or underwriters’ underwriting, private


		placement, structuring or other fees (including discounts and commissions but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the legal fees of the Sales Agent(s) and the filing fees in connection with the review by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., if applicable), as well as Renesas financial, legal and other Renesas advisor fees. The registration rights under Registration Rights Agreement with respect to Registered Primary Offerings will terminate on the Renesas Base Distribution Date. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Renesas be entitled to include in any such Registered Primary Offering shares on account of Reserve Shares representing the Contingent Shares or the Consideration Shares representing Contingent Shares, in each case until Renesas is entitled to the Contingent Additional Consideration due to the occurrence of the Regulatory Trigger Deadline.

Resale Registration Rights		With respect to the Reorganized Parent’s new equity shares, the Reorganized Parent shall provide Renesas with customary resale registration rights with respect to the Consideration Shares (and as applicable, the New Common Stock underlying the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes or the Renesas Warrants) issued to Renesas pursuant to the Plan and the RSA, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement which shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Renesas and the Required Consenting Convertible Noteholders and shall be effective as of the Plan Effective Date, and which shall include standard terms, including, without limitation, the following: • Shelf registration statement for secondary offering covering the Consideration Shares (and as applicable, the New Common Stock underlying the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes or the Renesas Warrants) issued to Renesas pursuant to the Plan and the RSA and the registrable securities of the Consenting Convertible Noteholders to be filed no later than thirty (30) days following the Plan Effective Date (with respect to the registrable securities of the Consenting Convertible Noteholders) or the Renesas Base Distribution Date (if applicable); • Shelf registration statement to be effective until such earlier time at which each of Renesas and each Consenting Convertible Noteholder party to the Registration Rights Agreement (inclusive of their respective affiliates), respectively, (A) beneficially owns an amount of equity securities of the Reorganized Parent not in excess of a customary threshold for termination of registration rights to be reasonably agreed among Renesas, the Consenting Convertible Noteholders and Reorganized Parent and (B) can sell all securities held by it (i) in compliance with Rule 144(b)(1)(i) under the Securities Act or (ii) in any three (3) month period without registration in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act; • The conversion of a Form S-1 shelf to a Form S-3 shelf once the Reorganized Parent is Form S-3 eligible;

• Renesas’s ability to demand underwritten offerings or underwritten block trades (collectively, the “Registered Secondary Offerings”) for the secondary sale of New Common Stock (and as applicable, the New Common Stock underlying the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes or the Renesas Warrants) issued to Renesas pursuant to the Plan and the RSA; provided that Renesas may not demand more than three (3) underwritten offerings or underwritten block trades in any twelve (12) month period;

• Registered Secondary Offerings shall be subject to market conditions, applicable laws, and customary quarterly blackout rights, and shall only take place during open trading window periods under Reorganized Parent’s insider trading policy. Reorganized Parent reserves the right to impose up to two (2) blackout periods for an aggregate of up to ninety (90) days in any twelve (12) month period when it is in possession of material non-public information during which Registered Secondary Offerings shall not be permitted, if such Registered Secondary Offerings would have a detrimental impact on alternate transactions (including, but not limited to, merger, acquisition or offering transactions) being contemplated by Reorganized Parent or if Reorganized Parent reasonably believes it would require disclosure that would meaningfully interfere with an alternate company transaction or otherwise cause meaningful harm to the Reorganized Parent;

• Customary piggyback rights, including that (i) any Renesas-initiated offering shall have priority over sales by the Reorganized Parent with respect to such offering and (ii) any Reorganized Parent-initiated offering shall have priority over sales by Renesas with respect to such offering;

• Subject to the immediately succeeding paragraph, the Reorganized Parent will agree not to grant any other person senior or conflicting shelf, demand or piggyback registration rights;

• The Reorganized Parent shall (a) make all necessary registration and regulatory filings to establish and maintain any shelf registration statement, (b) enter into all documentation reasonably necessary to establish and maintain any shelf registration statement, (c) cause the Reorganized Parent’s legal and accounting advisors to provide the necessary legal opinions and comfort letters as is reasonably necessary or customary to execute any Registered Secondary Offering and (d) provide materials responsive to customary due diligence requests; and

• Renesas will agree to be locked up (for a customary period not longer than the lock-up period imposed on the Reorganized Parent) even if it does not participate in an offering subject to the following: (i) Renesas’s ability to have customary piggyback rights on any underwritten offering proposed by the Reorganized Parent and (ii) that such lock-up requirement shall no longer apply when Renesas owns less than 10% of the New Common Stock on a fully diluted basis and Renesas no longer has a director on the board of directors of Reorganized Parent.


		For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and acknowledged that the Consenting Convertible Noteholders shall also be party to the Registration Rights Agreement and shall receive certain customary registration rights consistent with their respective holdings with respect to shares of New Common Stock, including shares underlying the New 2L Convertible Notes, issued to the Consenting Convertible Noteholders in accordance with the Plan; provided that shares that are freely tradeable under Section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code shall not be covered by such registration rights. Subject to customary thresholds to be agreed upon, (i) the Registration Rights Agreement shall provide the Consenting Convertible Noteholders with shelf, demand and piggyback registration rights with the same registration and piggyback priority as Renesas, except that the Consenting Convertible Noteholders shall have no such rights with respect to Registered Primary Offerings (except as provided in (iv) below) or the ELOC/ATM Programs, (ii) such Consenting Convertible Noteholders shall have comparable priority in respect to any “cutback”, (iii) Renesas and the Consenting Convertible Noteholders party to the Registration Rights Agreement shall have parity participation rights in any demand or shelf takedown initiated by the other (except as specified in (i) above) and parity piggyback rights with respect to Reorganized Parent initiated offerings for Reorganized Parent’s account (except as provided in (iv) below); and (iv) with respect to any Registered Primary Offering, the Consenting Convertible Noteholders party to the Registration Rights Agreement shall be entitled to piggyback rights thereon but subject to cutback priority junior to the shares proposed to be sold on account of Renesas therein (but senior to the shares proposed to be sold by the Reorganized Parent therein for its own account). The Registration Rights Agreement shall terminate with respect to any holder of registrable securities when such holder (A) owns an amount of equity securities of the Reorganized Parent not in excess of a customary threshold for termination of registration rights to be reasonably agreed among Renesas, the Consenting Convertible Noteholders and Reorganized Parent and (B) can sell all securities held by it (i) in compliance with Rule 144(b)(1)(i) under the Securities Act or (ii) in any three (3) month period without registration in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

Anti-Dilution		The Definitive Documents shall provide for customary anti-dilution protections for the Base Consideration and, if applicable, Contingent Additional Consideration, including (but not limited to) with respect to dividends, the subdivision or combination of outstanding common stock, stock splits, the issuance of rights or warrants to all or substantially all holders of common stock, spinoffs, recapitalizations, and change of control transactions (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any price-based or “ratchet” protections).

Tax Treatment		The Reorganized Debtors and Renesas shall use commercially reasonable efforts to structure the transactions contemplated herein in a manner that is tax neutral to Renesas as compared to the treatment it would have had if Renesas had received the Base Consideration in accordance with the Restructuring Term Sheet. In addition to any intended tax treatment

described in the RSA, the Parties intend that if a Distribution Event occurs, solely for applicable U.S. tax purposes, (i) the Base Consideration and Contingent Additional Consideration shall be treated as consideration issued in exchange for Renesas’s allowed Claim in a transaction treated as a “recapitalization” under Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code, (ii) any adjustment to the Base Consideration and the Contingent Additional Consideration (or any adjustments thereto) as described above opposite the heading “Release of Contingent Additional Consideration” shall be treated as an adjustment to the Base Consideration and the Contingent Additional Consideration and not as a separate fee or other item of income, (iii) Renesas shall be treated as the beneficial owner of the Base Consideration as of the Plan Effective Date, (iv) Renesas shall be treated as the beneficial owner of the Contingent Additional Consideration in accordance with distribution timing set forth in this Contingent Consideration Term Sheet, and (v) any release of the Base Consideration and Contingent Additional Consideration to Renesas shall, to the greatest extent permitted by law (reflecting a position at a “substantial authority” or higher level of comfort), be treated as a transaction that does not separately give rise to additional recognized gain or loss to Renesas (collectively, the “Distribution Event Intended Tax Treatment”). The Parties agree that they will report the transactions contemplated hereby in a manner consistent with the Distribution Event Intended Tax Treatment unless otherwise required by a determination that is “final” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code (or corresponding provision of state or local U.S. tax law).

Without limiting the foregoing, if a Distribution Event occurs and Renesas receives less consideration on an after-tax basis than it would have received had it received the Base Consideration and, if applicable, the Contingent Additional Consideration at the Plan Effective Date solely as a result of a change in applicable U.S. federal income tax law after the Plan Effective Date or a failure of the Distribution Event Intended Tax Treatment to qualify as such, then the Reorganized Debtors and Renesas shall use commercially reasonable efforts (taking into account outstanding Regulatory Approvals) to mitigate any tax incurred in excess of the amount of tax that would have been incurred by Renesas had the Regulatory Approvals been secured by the Plan Effective Date. Renesas shall hold its right or entitlement to receive the Base Consideration and the Contingent Additional Consideration through a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code and shall provide the Reorganized Debtors a valid IRS Form W-9 (a “U.S. W-9 Provider”); provided, if Renesas determines that it is not commercially reasonable to hold such right or entitlement through a U.S. W- 9 Provider, then Renesas may, transfer such right or entitlement to an affiliate that is not a U.S. W-9 Provider as long as (i) Renesas provides the Company written notice of such transfer no later than the earlier of (A) ten (10) days after the transfer and (B) five (5) days prior to any transfer or release of the Base Consideration, the Contingent Additional Consideration or any consideration pursuant to sales under the ELOC/ATM Programs or the Registered Primary Offerings, (ii) Renesas and such transferee agree in writing that the Reorganized Debtors shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted or withheld, from any distribution, payment or transfer made pursuant to this Contingent Consideration Term Sheet or any


		transactions or documentation entered into in connection therewith, such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the tax law; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in any case where Renesas or such transferee is subject to withholding, the Company’s sole remedy shall be to withhold or deduct the required amounts under applicable tax law and (ii) such transferee shall provide the Reorganized Debtors a valid IRS Form W-8BEN-E. The Parties agree to cooperate in good faith to eliminate or minimize any applicable withholding tax imposed on the Transactions or any transfer of consideration pursuant to sales under the ELOC/ATM Programs or the Registered Primary Offerings, in each case to the extent permitted by applicable law. For the avoidance of doubt, Renesas will not bear any tax obligations of the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors or any respective agents thereof based on the Debtors’, Reorganized Debtors’, or any such agents’ income, gain or profits (howsoever denominated).

Additional Defined Terms		“*Consideration Shares” means, collectively, the New Common Stock included in the Base Consideration and the Contingent Shares. “Renesas Warrants Term Extension*” means the extension of the three (3)-year expiration period of the Renesas Warrants by one (1) year, which shall be reflected in Renesas’s right to receive cash proceeds from the sale of the Reserve Shares in accordance with the terms hereof.

THE TRANSACTIONS

Section 1.1 The Rights Offering.

(a) (i) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, prior to the Plan Effective Date, Wolfspeed shall conduct the Rights Offering and the Subscription Rights shall be issued pursuant to and in accordance with the rights offering procedures (which procedures shall be mutually acceptable to the Company and the Requisite Commitment Parties (the “Rights Offering Procedures”)), this Agreement and the Plan.

(ii) Each Eligible Offeree will receive Subscription Rights to purchase an aggregate principal amount of New 2L Convertible Notes up to its Pro Rata Share of the Offered Notes issued pursuant to and in accordance with the Rights Offering Procedures, at the Purchase Price.

(b) (i) Wolfspeed shall provide, or cause to be provided, to each Eligible Offeree the Rights Offering Procedures, which shall contain instructions regarding the procedures to validly exercise Subscription Rights in whole or in part.

(ii) The Subscription Rights may be exercised during the period specified in the Rights Offering Procedures, which period will commence on the date the Rights Offering Procedures are distributed and will end at the subscription expiration deadline specified therein or such other subsequent date as Wolfspeed and the Requisite Commitment Parties may otherwise mutually agree (the “Subscription Expiration Deadline”), which such other subsequent date will then be specified in a notice provided by Wolfspeed to (i) The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), and (ii) placed on the case website maintained by the Subscription Agent at least one Business Day before the then-effective Subscription Expiration Deadline.

(iii) Pursuant to the Rights Offering Procedures, in order to exercise a Subscription Right, an Eligible Offeree shall, by the Subscription Expiration Deadline (except as specified in clause (B) below):

(A) complete the procedures specified in the Rights Offering Procedures, which are anticipated to include the submission of the Eligible Offeree’s existing Convertible Notes which shall correspond, pursuant to the subscription factor set forth in the Rights Offering Procedures, to the aggregate amount of Offered Notes such Eligible Offeree desires to subscribe for and fund pursuant to the Rights Offering in respect of the Offered Notes (such Eligible Offeree’s “Elected Amount”), which amount shall not exceed such Eligible Offeree’s Maximum Subscription Amount;

(B) (x) if such Eligible Offeree is not a Rights Offering Backstop Party, pay the Purchase Price for its RO Notes by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Subscription Agent on the business day following the Subscription Expiration Deadline, or (y) if such Eligible Offeree is a Rights Offering Backstop Party, make payment as otherwise described herein.

(iv) Wolfspeed shall:

(A) as promptly as reasonably practicable, but no more than five (5) Business Days following the Subscription Expiration Deadline (the “Determination Time”), cause the Subscription Agent to determine, in accordance with this Agreement and the Rights Offering Procedures, (x) the final, aggregate principal amount of Offered Notes each Eligible Offeree will receive pursuant to its valid and timely exercise of Subscription Rights, and (y) the aggregate principal amount of Unsubscribed Notes Rights Offering Backstop Parties have agreed to purchase pursuant to the Backstop Commitments;

(B) after the Determination Time and at least ten (10) Business Days, but not more than fifteen (15) Business Days, prior to the Plan Effective Date, give, or shall cause the Subscription Agent to give, to the Rights Offering Backstop Parties and the Rights Offering Holdback Parties a written notice (the “Funding Notice”), by email, including the aggregate number of:

(a) Offered Notes such Commitment Party has subscribed for;

(b) As applicable, Unsubscribed Notes such Commitment Party has agreed to purchase;

(d) the aggregate principal amount of Premium Notes such Commitment Party shall receive as its portion of the Rights Offering Backstop Premium.

(C) cause the Subscription Agent to promptly provide any written backup, information and documentation relating to the information contained in the applicable Funding Notice as any Commitment Party may reasonably request in writing.

(v) Each Rights Offering Backstop Party shall pay the aggregate Purchase Price for its RO Notes (together with the aggregate Purchase Price for its Unsubscribed Notes and Direct Investment Notes as described further herein) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified in the Funding Notice no later than the Backstop Funding Date, which account shall be an escrow account maintained at a financial institution of national standing reasonably acceptable to the Requisite Commitment Parties (the “Escrow Agent”) pursuant to an escrow agreement and related documentation in form and substance acceptable to the Requisite Commitment Parties. The “Backstop Funding Date” shall be a date that is not earlier than three (3) Business Days prior to the anticipated Plan Effective Date (as specified in the Funding Notice), provided that the Backstop Funding Date may not be less than five (5) Business Days after the receipt of the Funding Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Backstop Funding Date shall be prior to the Plan Effective Date.

(vi) If the Plan Effective Date has not occurred on or prior to the date that is three (3) Business Days after the anticipated Plan Effective Date as set forth in the Funding Notice, any funds deposited or caused to be deposited with the Escrow Agent by a Commitment Party shall be returned by the Escrow Agent to an account designated by such Commitment Party upon written request of such Commitment Party. Notwithstanding such return, if and when a new anticipated Plan Effective Date is redetermined, unless and until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 6.1, Section 6.2 or Section 6.3 hereof, each Commitment Party shall remain obligated (1) to redeliver its respective funds to the Escrow Agent following the Company’s delivery to each Commitment Party of a written notice with respect to the redetermined Plan Effective Date and (2) to consummate the purchase of its RO Notes, Unsubscribed Notes and Direct Investment Notes, in each case subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and in connection with the foregoing, the Company shall remain obligated to pay the Rights Offering Backstop Premium in accordance with the terms hereof.

(c) On the Plan Effective Date, Wolfspeed shall issue to each Eligible Offeree such Offered Notes with respect to which such Eligible Offeree has validly and timely exercised Subscription Rights and paid the aggregate Purchase Price pursuant to Section 1.1(b) hereof and the Rights Offering Procedures, rounded down to the nearest denomination of the New 2L Convertible Notes, provided that the Parties hereto acknowledge that delivery of the Offered Notes may be delayed due to administrative or logistical reasons, including due to the applicable procedures of DTC, and that irrespective of any such delay, the Offered Notes shall nonetheless be deemed to be issued on the Plan Effective Date and any such reasonable delay shall not otherwise be deemed a breach of this Agreement provided that the New 2L Convertible Notes are delivered to DTC within five (5) Business Days from the deemed date of issuance (which period shall be extendible to the extent of any delay caused by the recipient of such securities or their custodian).

(d) If the Subscription Agent for any reason does not receive from an Eligible Offeree (i) the submission of the existing Convertible Notes and (ii) payment of the subscription price (or, in the case of a Commitment Party, confirmation from the Escrow Agent of the payment by the Eligible Offeree that is a Commitment Party of the subscription price, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), in each case in accordance with the Rights Offering Procedures, such Eligible Offeree shall be deemed to have relinquished and waived its right to participate in the Rights Offering, unless otherwise approved by the Requisite Commitment Parties and the Company.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else in this Agreement, in the event of any inconsistency between this Agreement, the Plan and the Rights Offering Procedures regarding the matters set forth herein, the Plan and the Rights Offering Procedures shall govern.

(a) (i) On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein (and in any event only upon Wolfspeed’s receipt of the amounts described in Section 1.2(b) hereof), Wolfspeed shall issue to each Rights Offering Backstop Party on the Plan Effective Date, and each Rights Offering Backstop Party agrees to its Backstop Commitment, and shall, severally and not jointly, purchase its Backstop Percentage of the Unsubscribed Notes at the aggregate Purchase Price for such Unsubscribed Notes.

(ii) Except as otherwise set forth in Section 1.4 hereof, the obligations of the Rights Offering Backstop Parties with respect to the Backstop Commitments are several, and not joint, obligations of the Rights Offering Backstop Parties, such that no Rights Offering Backstop Party shall be liable or otherwise responsible for the Backstop Commitments of any other Rights Offering Backstop Party.

(b) (i) On the Backstop Funding Date, each Rights Offering Backstop Party shall pay to Wolfspeed such Rights Offering Backstop Party’s Backstop Percentage of (x) the aggregate principal amount of Unsubscribed Notes, multiplied by (y) the Purchase Price, such payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified in the Funding Notice.

(ii) Subject to the receipt of the aforementioned payment, on the Plan Effective Date, Wolfspeed shall issue to such Rights Offering Backstop Party such Rights Offering Backstop Party’s Backstop Percentage of the Unsubscribed Notes, provided that the Parties hereto acknowledge that delivery of the Unsubscribed Notes may be delayed due to administrative or logistical reasons, including due to the applicable procedures of DTC, and that irrespective of any such delay, the Unsubscribed Notes shall nonetheless be deemed to be issued on the Plan Effective Date and any such reasonable delay shall not otherwise be deemed a breach of this Agreement provided that the New 2L Convertible Notes are delivered to DTC within five (5) Business Days from the deemed date of issuance (which period shall be extendible to the extent of any delay caused by the recipient of such securities or their custodian).

(c) (i) On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, to compensate the applicable Commitment Parties for their agreement to purchase the Unsubscribed Notes pursuant to Section 1.2(a) hereof and the Direct Investment Notes pursuant to Section 1.3 hereof, Wolfspeed shall pay to each of the Commitment Parties (or their respective designated Related Transferees pursuant to Section 1.4(a) hereof) a non-refundable premium equal to $30.25 million in the aggregate (the “Rights Offering Backstop Premium”) to be allocated as described in clause (c)(ii) below, such amount being equal to the result of (x) 10.0457% multiplied by (y) the Rights Offering Amount, which premium shall be payable on the Plan Effective Date in the form of New 2L Convertible Notes, to be issued at par, free and clear of all Liens (other than under the New Organizational Documents or applicable securities Laws).

(ii) The Rights Offering Backstop Premium shall be allocated among the Rights Offering Backstop Parties and Rights Offering Holdback Parties ratably based on the underlying dollar amount of their respective Backstop Commitments and Direct Investment Commitments (rounded among the Commitment Parties solely to maintain the minimum denominations of the New 2L Convertible Notes), subject to Section 1.5 hereof.

(d) (i) The provisions for the payment of the Rights Offering Backstop Premium are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and without these provisions, the Commitment Parties would not have entered into this Agreement. The Rights Offering Backstop Premium shall, pursuant to the Backstop Order, constitute allowed administrative expenses under the Bankruptcy Code, and shall be fully earned upon entry of the Backstop Order.

(ii) The Rights Offering Backstop Premium shall, regardless of the amount of Unsubscribed Notes, if any, actually required to be purchased pursuant to this Agreement, be paid by Wolfspeed on the Plan Effective Date by delivering the Premium Notes to the Commitment Parties as described herein, subject to Section 1.5 hereof; provided, however, that if this Agreement is validly terminated prior to the Plan Effective Date for any reason, other than if such termination results, directly or indirectly, from a breach of this Agreement by any of the Commitment Parties or any action by any Commitment Party in violation of its obligations hereunder, the Rights Offering Backstop Premium shall be payable in cash to the Commitment Parties, not later than the earlier of (x) the Outside Date and (y) the effective date of an Alternative Transaction, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such accounts as the Commitment Parties may designate on or prior to the date such amount is payable hereunder.

(b) (i) Subject to the Rights Offering Procedures, by no later than the Backstop Funding Date, each Rights Offering Holdback Party shall pay to Wolfspeed such Rights Offering Holdback Party’s Direct Investment Percentage of (x) the aggregate principal amount of Direct Investment Notes, multiplied by (y) the Purchase Price.

(ii) Subject to the receipt of the aforementioned payment, on the Plan Effective Date, Wolfspeed shall issue to such Rights Offering Holdback Party such Rights Offering Holdback Party’s Direct Investment Percentage of the Direct Investment Notes; provided that the Parties hereto acknowledge that delivery of the Direct Investment Notes may be delayed due to administrative or logistical reasons, including due to the applicable procedures of DTC, and that irrespective of any such delay, the Direct Investment Notes shall nonetheless be deemed to be issued on the Plan Effective Date and any such delay shall not otherwise be deemed a breach of this Agreement.

Commitment Parties, pursuant to which the Transferee agrees to be fully bound by this Agreement and contains a confirmation of the accuracy of the representations made by each Commitment Party under this Agreement as applied to such Transferee, and (z) unless such Transferee is already a party to the Restructuring Support Agreement, such Transferee shall deliver to Wolfspeed, prior to such Transfer, a joinder to the Restructuring Support Agreement in the form attached thereto, pursuant to which the Transferee agrees to be fully bound by the Restructuring Support Agreement and contains a confirmation of the accuracy of the representations made by a party that is a party thereto as applied to such Transferee.

Purchase Price, all or any portion of the Default Notes, or, if no such agreement is reached, up to an amount of Default Notes equal to the product of (A)(x) the total principal amount of Default Notes or (w) such lesser principal amount of Default Notes as may be agreed to by the Non-Defaulting Commitment Parties, in either case multiplied by (B) a percentage equal to the quotient of (x) the aggregate of such Non-Defaulting Commitment Party’s Backstop Percentage or Direct Investment Percentage, as applicable, divided by (y) the aggregate Backstop Percentages or Direct Investment Percentages, as applicable, of all the Non-Defaulting Commitment Parties (or otherwise in such other proportion as may be agreed to by the Non-Defaulting Commitment Parties).

(ii) If any Default Notes are not elected to be purchased pursuant to clause (i) by the expiration of the period specified therein, then, the Parties agree that such Default Notes may be offered by Wolfspeed to third parties pursuant to this Section 1.5(a), which such Default Notes shall be issued pursuant to a subscription agreement or similar instrument with terms and conditions substantially similar to those contained in this Agreement, and otherwise in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Wolfspeed.

Section 1.6 Withholding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (but, for clarity, subject to Section 8.01 of the Restructuring Support Agreement), Wolfspeed and any other applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment made pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as such withholding agent reasonably determines are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the receipt of such payment under the Code or any applicable provision of state, local or non-United States Tax law; provided that such withholding agent shall (x) use commercially reasonable efforts to provide or cause to be provided to the recipient of such payment written notice five days in advance of the amounts being so deducted or withheld and (y) cooperate in good faith to eliminate or minimize any such withholding and assist such recipient with obtaining any exemption from or reduction of any such withholding Taxes. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and are to be paid to the appropriate governmental authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid, issued or transferred to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

ARTICLE VII

INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS

Section 7.1 Indemnification Generally. Following the entry of the Backstop Order, the Company Parties (each an “Indemnifying Party” and collectively, the “Indemnifying Parties”) shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless each Commitment Party and its Affiliates, equity holders, members, partners, general partners, managers and its and their respective representatives and controlling Persons (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable costs and expenses (other than income Taxes of the Commitment Parties incurred as a result of participating in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Plan) (collectively, “Losses”) that any such Indemnified Person has actually incurred or to which any such Indemnified Person has actually become subject resulting from any claim, challenge, litigation, investigation or Legal Proceeding, arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, the Plan and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, regardless of whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto, whether or not such Legal Proceedings are brought by any of the Company Parties, their respective equity holders, Affiliates, creditors or any other Person, and reimburse each Indemnified Person upon demand for reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses (which shall be limited to one law firm, and one local counsel (to the extent necessary), each serving as counsel for all of the Indemnified Persons, taken as a whole) and other reasonable and documented out-of-pocket third-party expenses actually incurred in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending, or providing evidence in or preparing to serve or serving as a witness with respect to, any lawsuit, investigation, claim or other Legal Proceeding relating to any of the foregoing (including in connection with the enforcement of the indemnification obligations set forth herein), irrespective of whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Plan are consummated or whether or not this Agreement is terminated; provided that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Indemnified Person, apply to Losses (i) as to any Indemnified Person to the extent arising from a material breach or failure by such Indemnified Person of this Agreement (including in connection with such Indemnified Person having defaulted on its obligation to exercise its Subscription Rights or pay the purchase price for such Commitment Party’s exercise of its Subscription Rights or Backstop Commitment of any Unsubscribed Notes or such Commitment Party’s failure to fund its obligations under the Direct Investment Raise), or (ii) to the extent they are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from the bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or fraud of such Indemnified Person.

Section 7.2 Settlement of Indemnified Claims. The Indemnifying Parties shall not be liable for any settlement of any Indemnified Claims (as defined below) effected by such Indemnified Person without the written consent of the Indemnifying Parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If any settlement of any Indemnified Claims is consummated with the written consent of the Indemnifying Parties or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such Indemnified Claims, the Indemnifying Parties agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all Losses by reason of such settlement or judgment to the extent such Losses are otherwise subject to indemnification by the Indemnifying Parties hereunder in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of, this Article VII. The Indemnifying Parties shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnified Person (which consent shall be granted or withheld, conditioned or delayed in the Indemnified Person’s sole discretion), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Indemnified Claims in respect of which indemnity or contribution has been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person unless (i) such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person from all Liability on the claims that are the subject matter of such Indemnified Claims, and (ii) such settlement does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

Section 7.3 Contribution. If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Person or insufficient to hold it harmless from Losses that are subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof, then the Indemnifying Parties shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Parties, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, but also the relative fault of the Indemnifying Parties, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, as well as any relevant equitable considerations. It is hereby agreed that the relative benefits to the Indemnifying Parties, on the one hand, and all Indemnified Persons, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as (a) the total value received or proposed to be received by Wolfspeed pursuant to the sale of the Unsubscribed Notes in the Rights Offering and the New 2L Convertible Notes in the Direct Investment Raise contemplated by this Agreement bears to (b) the Rights Offering Backstop Premium to be paid to the Commitment Parties. The Indemnifying Parties also agree that no Indemnified Person shall have any Liability based on their comparative or contributory negligence or otherwise to the Indemnifying Parties, any Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of any of the Indemnifying Parties, or any other Person in connection with an Indemnified Claim.

Section 7.4 Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of the commencement of any claim, challenge, litigation, investigation or proceeding that is the subject of indemnification set forth in Section 7.1 hereof (an “Indemnified Claim”), such Indemnified Person will, if a claim is to be made hereunder against the Indemnifying Parties in respect thereof, promptly notify the Indemnifying Parties in writing of the commencement thereof; provided that (a) the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Parties will not relieve the Indemnifying Parties from any liability that it may have hereunder except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and (b) the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Parties will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Person otherwise than on account of this Article VII. In case any such Indemnified Claims are brought against any Indemnified Person and the Indemnified Person notifies the Indemnifying Parties of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Parties will be entitled to participate therein, and, at their election by providing written notice to such Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Parties will be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Person; provided that, if the parties (including any impleaded parties) to any such Indemnified Claims include both such Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Parties and based on advice of such Indemnified Person’s counsel there are legal defenses available to such Indemnified Person that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Parties, such Indemnified Person shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such Indemnified Claims. Upon receipt of notice from the Indemnifying Parties to such Indemnified Person of their election to so assume the defense of such Indemnified Claims with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Parties shall not be liable to such Indemnified Person for expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof or participation therein (other than reasonable costs of investigation) unless (i) such Indemnified Person shall have employed separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel) in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the Indemnifying Parties shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel representing the Indemnified Persons who are parties to such Indemnified Claims, taken as a whole (in addition to one local counsel in each jurisdiction in which local counsel is required representing the Indemnified Persons who are parties to such Indemnified Claims, taken as a whole)), (ii) the Indemnifying Parties shall not have employed counsel reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Person to represent such Indemnified Person within a reasonable time after the Indemnifying Parties have received notice of commencement of the Indemnified Claims from, or delivered on behalf of, the Indemnified Person, (iii) after the Indemnifying Parties assume the defense of the Indemnified Claims, the Indemnified Person determines in good faith that the Indemnifying Parties have failed or are failing to defend such claim and provides written notice of such determination and the basis for such determination, and such failure is not reasonably cured within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such notice, or (iv) the Indemnifying Parties shall have authorized in writing the employment of counsel for such Indemnified Person.

Section 8.9 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented and the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be waived only by a written instrument signed by Wolfspeed and the Requisite Commitment Parties; provided that (i) any modification of, or amendment or supplement to, this Agreement that would have the effect of changing a Commitment Party’s Backstop Percentage (as set forth on Exhibit A hereto) or Direct Investment Percentage (as set forth on Exhibit B hereto), or increasing the Purchase Price to be paid in respect of such Rights Offering Backstop Party’s Backstop Commitment or such Rights Offering Holdback Party’s Direct Investment Commitment, or changing a Rights Offering Holdback Party’s investment in the Direct Investment Raise, in each case subject to Section 1.5 hereof, shall require the prior written consent of such Commitment Party, (ii) any modification of, or amendment or supplement to, this Agreement that would have the effect of modifying this sentence shall require the prior written consent of all of the Commitment Parties and Wolfspeed, (iii) any modification to the definition of “Outside Date” or to threshold percentage set forth in the definition of “Requisite Commitment Parties” may be made only by a written instrument executed by all Commitment Parties and Wolfspeed, and (iv) if the proposed modification, amendment, waiver, or supplement has a disproportionate adverse effect on any Commitment Party, in its capacity as such, as compared to

Section 8.10 Several Liability. For the avoidance of doubt, all obligations of the Commitment Parties hereunder are several, and not joint, in nature.

Section 8.11 Specific Performance/Remedies. It is understood and agreed by the Parties that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by any Party and that, in addition to any other remedy to which a party is entitled at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise, each non-breaching party shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief (including attorneys’ fees and costs) as a remedy of any such breach, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy, including an Order of the Bankruptcy Court requiring any Party to comply promptly with any of its obligations hereunder. The Parties hereby agree not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches of this Agreement by the Parties and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the respective covenants and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement. No Party shall be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, all in accordance with the terms of this Section 8.11.

Section 8.12 Disclosure. Except as required by law (including routine regulatory audits or investigations not specific to the Restructuring Transactions), no Party or its advisors (including counsel to any Party) shall disclose to any Person (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any other Commitment Party), other than advisors to the Company Parties and the Commitment Parties, Exhibit A or Exhibit B hereto or, with respect to any Rights Offering Backstop Party (without such Party’s prior written consent), its Backstop Percentage, or, with respect to any Rights Offering Holdback Party (without such Party’s prior written consent), its Direct Investment Percentage; provided, however, that, if such disclosure is required by Law, subpoena, or other legal process or regulation (except pursuant to routine regulatory audits or investigations not specific to the Restructuring Transactions), the disclosing party shall afford the relevant party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment in advance of such disclosure and shall take all reasonable measures to limit such disclosure (the expense of which, if any, shall be borne by the relevant disclosing party).

Section 8.13 Other Interpretive Matters.

(a) Unless otherwise expressly provided, for purposes of this Agreement, the following rules of interpretation shall apply:

(i) when calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded and, if the last day of such period is not a Business Day, the period in question shall end on the next succeeding Business Day;

(ii) any reference in this Agreement to “$” shall mean U.S. dollars;

(iii) all Exhibits and Schedules annexed hereto or referred to herein are hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein and any capitalized terms used in any such Exhibit but not otherwise defined therein shall be defined as set forth in this Agreement;

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parties understand that the Commitment Parties may be engaged in a wide range of financial services and businesses, and, in furtherance of the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, the terms and obligations set forth in this Agreement shall apply only to the specific signatory, portfolio management team, trading desk(s), and/or business group(s) on behalf of which the Commitment Party has executed this Agreement, and shall not apply to any other trading desk, portfolio management team, business group, subsidiary, or Affiliate of the Commitment Party unless they separately become a party hereto.

Notwithstanding that this Agreement is being executed by multiple Commitment Parties, the obligations of the Commitment Parties under this Agreement are several and neither joint nor joint and several. No Commitment Party shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations or any breach of any other Commitment Party under this Agreement (except to the extent elected to do so pursuant to Section 1.5), and nothing contained herein and no action taken by any Commitment Party pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the Commitment Parties as a partnership, an association or a joint venture of any kind, or to create a presumption that (i) the Commitment Parties are in any way acting other than in their individual capacities or (ii) any Commitment Party is in any way acting in concert or as a member of a “group” with any other Commitment Party within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act.

Each Commitment Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any other Commitment Party and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and that it has not relied on the credit analysis and decision or due diligence investigation of any other Commitment Party. The Commitment Parties have no agreement, arrangement, or understanding with respect to acting together for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting, or disposing of any shares of common stock or other capital stock of the Company and are not intended to be, and shall not constitute, or be presumed or deemed to be, a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. All rights under this Agreement are separately granted to each Commitment Party by the Company Parties and vice versa, and the use of a single document is for the convenience of the Company Parties. The decision to commit to enter into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement has been made independently.

Section 8.18 Additional Assurances.

(a) Solely with respect to the Automatic Termination Parties, to the extent a party hereto, each Automatic Termination Party represents and warrants that its investment advisor has implemented internal processes and controls the effects of which are to prohibit the Automatic Termination Parties and their Attribution Parties from acquiring beneficial ownership of any equity securities of the Company to the extent such acquisition would result in the Automatic Termination Parties and their Attribution Parties, collectively, beneficially owning, in the aggregate, more than 1.00% of the outstanding common equity of the Company while this Agreement remains in effect.

(c) Each of the Commitment Parties covenants and agrees to inform the Company Advisors and the Ad Hoc 26s/28s/29s Noteholder Group Advisors of the amount of equity securities of the Company (including or through any options or other derivatives) beneficially owned (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) by such Commitment Party and its Attribution Parties as of the date of this Agreement, and of any changes in such ownership as promptly as possible (and in any event not later than three (3) Business Days following the date of

The Commitment Parties acknowledge and agree that any such Transfer that does not comply with the terms and procedures set forth herein, including this Section 8.18(e), shall be deemed void ab initio, and each other Party shall have the right to enforce the voiding of such Transfer. In furtherance of the foregoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, no Person may become a party to this Agreement to the extent that the equity securities beneficially owned by such Person and its Attribution Parties, when aggregated with the equity securities owned by the Commitment Parties already a party hereto and their respective Attribution Parties, would equal 5% or more of the outstanding common equity of the Company.

imposition of the automatic stay pursuant to section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, and/or for any other reason for which adequate protection may be granted under the Bankruptcy Code (“Diminution in Value”). The foregoing shall not, nor shall any provision of this Interim Order be construed as, a determination or finding that there has been or will be any Diminution in Value of the Prepetition Collateral (including Cash Collateral) and the rights of all parties as to such issues are hereby preserved. Based on the Motion, the First Day Declaration and the record presented to the Court at the Interim Hearing, the terms of the proposed adequate protection arrangements and the use of the Prepetition Collateral, including Cash Collateral, are fair and reasonable and reflect the Debtors’ prudent business judgment.

G. Need to Use Cash Collateral. The Debtors have requested entry of this Interim Order pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 4001(b)(2) and have an immediate and critical need to obtain use of the Prepetition Collateral, including the Cash Collateral (subject to and in compliance with the Approved Budget and the Budget Provisions (each as defined below) in accordance with paragraph 3 hereof) in order to, among other things, (A) permit the orderly continuation of their business, (B) pay certain adequate protection payments; and (C) pay the costs of administration of their estates, including the payment of professional fees and expenses, and to satisfy other working capital and general corporate needs of the Debtors. Access to liquidity through the use of the Cash Collateral, consistent with the Approved Budget and the Budget Provisions through the date of the Final Hearing, is vital to the Debtors and their efforts to maximize the value of their estates. Absent entry of this Interim Order, the Debtors’ estates and reorganization efforts will be immediately and irreparably harmed.

In accordance with Bankruptcy Rules 2002, 4001(b) and (c), and 9014, and Local Rule 2002-1, notice of the Interim Hearing and the emergency relief requested in the Motion has been provided by the Debtors to the Notice Parties (as defined in the Motion) as set forth therein.

I. Consent by Prepetition Secured Parties. As set forth in the Restructuring Support Agreement, dated June [22], 2025 (the “RSA”) by and among the Debtors, the Senior Secured Noteholders party thereto (the “Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group”), and the other parties thereto, the requisite Prepetition Secured Parties have consented or are deemed to consent under the applicable provisions of the Prepetition SSN Documents (and the Notes Trustee and the Collateral Agent are deemed to consent pursuant to the Prepetition SSN Documents and as provided in the RSA, as applicable) to the Debtors’ use of Cash Collateral in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions provided for in this Interim Order.

J. Relief Essential; Best Interest. The Debtors have requested entry of this Interim Order pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 4001(b)(2). The relief requested in the Motion (and as provided in this Interim Order) is necessary, essential, and appropriate for the continued operation of the Debtors’ business, the administration of the Cases, and the management and preservation of the Debtors’ assets and the property of their estates. It is in the best interest of the Debtors’ estates that the Debtors be allowed to use the Cash Collateral under the terms hereof. The Debtors have demonstrated good and sufficient cause for the relief granted herein. The terms of the Order and the use of Cash Collateral are fair and reasonable and reflect the Debtors’ exercise of prudent business judgment consistent with the Debtors’ fiduciary duties.

K. Arm’s-Length, Good Faith Negotiations. The terms of this Interim Order were negotiated in good faith and at arm’s length between the Debtors and the Prepetition Secured Parties. The Prepetition Secured Parties have acted without negligence, in good faith, and not in violation of public policy or law in respect of all actions taken by them in connection with or related in any way to negotiating, implementing, documenting, or obtaining requisite approvals of the use of Cash Collateral on the terms set forth herein, including in respect of the granting of adequate protection as provided for herein and all documents and transactions related thereto.

(f) CapEx Limit. The Debtors shall not spend, in the aggregate, more than $200 million on Capital Expenditures (as defined in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture) between the Petition Date and the Plan Effective Date (the “CapEx Limit”).

The automatic stay provisions of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code and any other restriction imposed by an order of the Court or applicable law are hereby modified to the extent necessary to permit the Notes Trustee and the Collateral Agent to perform any act authorized or permitted under or by virtue of this Interim Order, including, without limitation, to take any act to create, validate, evidence, attach or perfect any the Adequate Protection Liens and to receive any payments expressly authorized by this Interim Order with respect to the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness or adequate protection.

(h) Commitment Fee. [On the Commitment Fee Payment Date (as defined in that certain Note Purchase Agreement, dated October 11, 2024 (the “Note Purchase Agreement”)) occurring on June 23, 2025, Wolfspeed shall pay 100% of the Commitment Fee (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) due on such date, on the terms set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement.]⁵ June 23, 2025 is hereby deemed to be a “Commitment Termination Trigger Date” (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement), and the Commitment Termination Trigger Date Commitment Fee (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) shall become payable to eligible Senior Secured Noteholders on the Plan Effective Date in an amount equal to 50% of the amount of such Commitment Termination Trigger Date Commitment Fee (the “Commitment Fee Amount”) (for the avoidance of doubt, the other 50% of the amount of such Commitment Termination Trigger Date Fee shall be waived on the Plan Effective Date).

(i) Right to Seek Additional Adequate Protection. This Interim Order is without prejudice to, and does not constitute a waiver of, expressly or implicitly, the rights of any of the Prepetition Secured Parties to request further or alternative forms of adequate protection at any time or the rights of the Debtors or any other party to contest such request. Subject to the Carve Out, nothing herein shall impair or modify the application of section 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code in the event that the adequate protection provided to the Prepetition Secured Parties is insufficient to compensate for any Diminution in Value of their respective interests in the Prepetition Collateral during the Cases. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed a finding by the Court, or an acknowledgment by any of the Prepetition Secured Parties that the adequate protection granted herein does in fact adequately protect any of the Prepetition Secured Parties against any Diminution in Value of their respective interests in the Prepetition Collateral (including the Cash Collateral).

⁵	[Note to Draft: To deleted bracketed language if Petition Date does not occur prior to payment of accrued and unpaid commitment fee on June 23, 2025.]

4(e) of this Interim Order). The Ad Hoc 26s/28s/29s Noteholder Group Advisors may share such information with any member of the Ad Hoc 26s/28s/29s Noteholder Group and the Renesas Advisors may share such information with Renesas, subject to applicable duties of confidentiality. For the avoidance of doubt, the members of the Ad Hoc 26s/28s/29s Noteholder Group and Renesas shall not be entitled to any consent right granted to the Prepetition Secured Parties hereunder.

5 Carve Out.

(a) Priority of Carve Out. Notwithstanding anything in this Interim Order or the Prepetition SSN Documents to the contrary, each of the Prepetition Liens, the Adequate Protection Liens, the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness, and the Adequate Protection Superpriority Claims (and any other claims arising under section 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code) shall be subject and subordinate to the payment in full in cash of the Carve Out.

(b) Definition of Carve Out. As used in this Interim Order, the “Carve Out” means the collective sum of (i) all fees required to be paid to the Clerk of the Court and to the Office of the United States Trustee (the “U.S. Trustee”) under section 1930(a) of title 28 of the United States Code plus interest at the statutory rate (without regard to the notice set forth in (iii) below); (ii) all reasonable and documented fees and expenses up to $75,000 incurred by a trustee under section 726(b) of the Bankruptcy Code (without regard to the notice set forth in (iii) below); (iii) to the extent allowed at any time, whether by interim order, procedural order, or otherwise, all accrued and unpaid fees, costs, and expenses (including any transaction fees or success fees then earned and payable prior to or after delivery of a Carve Out Trigger Notice) (the “Allowed Professional Fees”) incurred or earned by persons or firms retained by the Debtors pursuant to section 327, 328, or 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Debtor Professionals”) or the Committee (if any) pursuant to section 328 or 1103 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Committee Professionals” and, together with the Debtor Professionals, the “Professional Persons”) at any

time before the first day following delivery by the Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group of a Carve Out Trigger Notice (as defined below), whether allowed by the Court prior to or after delivery of a Carve Out Trigger Notice (the amounts set forth in clauses (i) through (iii), the “Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap”), in each case without regard to whether such fees, costs, or expenses are included or provided for in any Approved Budget or were invoiced on or after the Carve Out Trigger Date (as defined below); (iv) Allowed Professional Fees of Debtor Professionals in an aggregate amount not to exceed $4.5 million incurred after the first day following delivery by the Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group of the Carve Out Trigger Notice, to the extent allowed at any time, whether by interim order, procedural order, or otherwise, less the amount of any prepetition retainers received by any such Debtor Professional and not previously returned or applied to its respective fees and expenses; and (v) Allowed Professional Fees of Committee Professionals in an aggregate amount not to exceed $500,000 incurred after the first day following delivery by the Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group of the Carve Out Trigger Notice, to the extent allowed at any time, whether by interim order, procedural order, or otherwise (the amounts set forth in clauses (iv) and (v) being collectively the “Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap”). For purposes of the foregoing, “Carve Out Trigger Notice” shall mean a written notice delivered by email by the Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group or the Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group Advisors to the Debtors’ restructuring co-counsel (Latham & Watkins LLP and Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP), the U.S. Trustee, and counsel to the Committee (if any), with a copy to Kirkland & Ellis LLP, as lead counsel to Renesas, and Ropes & Gray LLP, as lead counsel to the Ad Hoc 26s/28s/29s Noteholder Group, which notice (i) may be delivered only following the occurrence, and during the continuation of, a Termination Event and the termination of the Debtors’ consensual use of Cash Collateral under this Interim Order and (ii) shall expressly state that the Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap has been invoked.

(c) Professional Fee Account. As soon as reasonably practicable following entry of this Interim Order, the Debtors shall transfer cash, including Cash Collateral, in an amount equal to (i) the total budgeted (or actual, if available) weekly fees and expenses incurred or to be incurred by Professional Persons (such fees and expenses of Professional Persons, the “Professional Fees”) between the Petition Date and the first weekly period set forth in the Approved Budget into a segregated account not subject to control, liens, security interests, or claims of the Prepetition Secured Parties, other than the Collateral Agent’s lien on and security interest in any residual cash balance following payment in full of all Allowed Professional Fees, subject to the Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap and the Post-Carve Out Notice Trigger Cap (the “Professional Fee Account”). Thereafter, on a weekly basis, the Debtors shall transfer into the Professional Fee Account cash, including Cash Collateral, in an amount not less than the aggregate unpaid amount of Weekly Estimated Fees and Expenses (as defined below) included in all Weekly Statements (as defined below) received by the Debtors. The Professional Fee Account shall not be subject to the control of the Prepetition Secured Parties, and the funds transferred to the Professional Fee Account shall be used to pay Allowed Professional Fees, with the Collateral Agent having a lien on and security interest in any residual cash balance following payment in full of all Allowed Professional Fees, subject to the Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap and the Post-Carve Out Notice Trigger Cap.

(d) Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice. Prior to the delivery of a Carve Out Trigger Notice, on the first business day following entry of this Interim Order and on the third business day of each week thereafter, each Professional Person shall deliver to the Debtors, the Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group, and their respective advisors a weekly statement (each, a “Weekly Statement”) setting forth a good-faith estimate of the amount of fees and expenses (excluding, for

the avoidance of doubt, any restructuring, sale, success or other transaction fee of any investment bankers or financial advisors) expected to be incurred by such Professional Person during the following week (the “Weekly Estimated Fees and Expenses”), and the Debtors shall, on a weekly basis, transfer cash into the Professional Fee Account in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Weekly Estimated Fees and Expenses based on the Weekly Statements submitted by each Professional Person (and if no such estimate is provided in a given week, then the amount forecasted for such Professional Person in the Approved Budget) that remain unpaid (and that were not previously funded to the Professional Fee Account). In addition to the Weekly Statement, each Professional Person shall also provide a good-faith estimate of the amount of accrued but unpaid fees and expenses incurred by such Professional Person during the preceding week (the “Prior Week Estimate”), and the amount of cash to be transferred to the Professional Fee Account shall be increased or reduced (as applicable) by the difference between such Prior Week Estimate and the Weekly Estimated Fees and Expenses funded for the prior week for such Professional Person. The Debtors shall use funds held in the Professional Fee Account exclusively to pay Allowed Professional Fees as they become allowed and payable pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Bankruptcy Local Rules, and in accordance with any orders of the Court; provided that the Debtors’ obligations to pay Allowed Professional Fees shall not be limited or be deemed limited to funds held in the Professional Fee Account.

(e) Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice. Notwithstanding the occurrence of a Termination Event, upon delivery of a Carve Out Trigger Notice to the Debtors (the “Carve Out Trigger Date”), such Carve Out Trigger Notice shall (i) constitute a demand to the Debtors to utilize all cash on hand as of such date and any available cash thereafter held by the Debtors to fund the Professional Fee Account in an amount equal to (A) the Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice

Cap and (B) the Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap ((A) and (B), each to the extent not previously funded into the Professional Fee Account, including after giving effect to the last sentence of this paragraph). Following delivery of a Carve Out Trigger Notice, each Professional Person shall promptly deliver one additional statement to the Debtors, the Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group, and the Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group Advisors setting forth a good-faith estimate of the amount of accrued but unpaid fees and expenses incurred by such Professional Person during the period immediately following the most recent Weekly Statement previously delivered by such Professional Person through and including the Carve Out Trigger Date, and the Debtors shall transfer such amounts to the Professional Fee Account.

(f) All funds in the Professional Fee Account shall be used first to pay Allowed Professional Fees, subject to the Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap and the Post-Carve Out Notice Trigger Cap, and then, to the extent the Professional Fee Account has not been reduced to zero, any such excess shall be paid to the Prepetition Secured Parties in accordance with the Prepetition SSN Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Prepetition SSN Documents or this Interim Order: (i) following delivery of a Carve Out Trigger Notice, the Notes Trustee, the Collateral Agent, and any other Prepetition Secured Party shall not sweep or foreclose on cash (including cash received as a result of the sale or other disposition of any assets) of the Debtors until the Professional Fee Account has been fully funded in cash, but the Collateral Agent shall have a lien on and security interest in any residual interest in any residual cash balance remaining in the Professional Fee Account after all Allowed Professional Fees have been paid in full in cash, with any excess paid to the Notes Trustee for application in accordance with the Prepetition SSN Documents; (ii)(A) disbursements by the Debtors from the Professional Fee Account shall not increase or reduce the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness, (B) failure of the Professional Fee

Account to satisfy in full in cash the Allowed Professional Fees shall not affect, alter, or impair the amount, scope, or priority of the Carve Out, (C) in no way shall any Approved Budget, Proposed Budget, Carve Out, Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap, Weekly Statement, Weekly Estimated Fees and Expenses, Prior Week Estimate, or any of the foregoing be construed as a cap or limitation on the amount of the Allowed Professional Fees due and payable by the Debtors; and (iii) the Carve Out shall be senior to (1) the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness, the Adequate Protection Superiority Claims, and any claims arising under section 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and (2) all security interests and liens (as defined in Section 101(37) of the Bankruptcy Code) securing any of the claims or administrative expenses described in clause (1), including the Prepetition Liens and the Adequate Protection Liens.

(g) No Direct Obligation to Pay Allowed Professional Fees. The Prepetition Secured Parties reserve the right to object to the allowance of any fees and expenses. Except for permitting the funding of the Professional Fee Account as provided herein, none of the Prepetition Secured Parties shall be responsible for the payment or reimbursement of any fees or disbursements of any Professional Person or any fees or expenses of the U.S. Trustee or Clerk of the Court incurred in connection with the Cases or any successor case(s) under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code (a “Successor Case”). Nothing in this Interim Order or otherwise shall be construed to obligate the Prepetition Secured Parties, in any way, to pay compensation to, or to reimburse expenses of, any Professional Person or to guarantee that the Debtors have sufficient funds to pay such compensation or reimbursement.

(h) Payment of Carve Out On or After the Termination Declaration Date. Any payment or reimbursement made on or after the occurrence of the Termination Declaration Date in respect of any Allowed Professional Fees shall permanently reduce the Carve Out on a dollar-for-dollar basis.

6 Access and Information. Upon written request (including via email), the Debtors shall provide the Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group Advisors with (a) reasonable access to the Debtors’ books and records, including all records and files of the Debtors pertaining to the Prepetition Collateral and the Adequate Protection Collateral and other available information (including historical information) regarding the Debtors, their property, operations, or finances, (b) reasonable access to the Debtors’ properties and (c) reasonable access to the Debtors’ officers, counsel, and financial advisors to discuss the Debtors’ affairs, finances, and condition; it being understood that nothing in this paragraph shall require the Debtors (or any of their advisors) to take any action that would conflict with any applicable requirements of law or any binding agreement, or that would waive any attorney-client or similar privilege.

7 Termination. Subject to the Remedies Notice Period (as defined below) and paragraphs 5 and 8 of this Interim Order, including if ordered by the Court in accordance with paragraph 8, the Debtors’ right to consensual use of Cash Collateral pursuant to this Interim Order shall automatically cease without further court proceedings on the Termination Date (as defined herein). As used herein, “Termination Event” means any of the events set forth below, in each case, unless waived or modified with the consent of the Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group:

(b) If a Termination Declaration is delivered as provided above, the Debtors, the Committee (if appointed), and the Prepetition Secured Parties hereby consent to an emergency hearing being held before the Court on an expedited basis and related motions shall be filed with the Court on at least three business days’ notice (subject to the Court’s availability) for the sole purpose (unless the Court orders otherwise) of considering whether a Termination Event has occurred or is continuing or for the contested use of Cash Collateral. Unless the Court has determined that a Termination Event has not occurred and/or is not continuing or the Court orders otherwise, the automatic stay, as to all of the Prepetition Secured Parties, shall automatically be terminated at the end of the Remedies Notice Period without further notice or order. Upon expiration of the Remedies Notice Period, the Prepetition Secured Parties shall be permitted to exercise all remedies set forth herein and in the Prepetition SSN Documents, and as otherwise available at law or in equity without further order of or application or motion to this Court.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Interim Order waives, limits, alters, or impairs the parties’ rights to seek or object to the non-consensual use of Prepetition Collateral, Adequate Protection Collateral, or Cash Collateral after the occurrence of the Termination Declaration Date. Nothing herein shall alter the burden of proof set forth in the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code at any hearing to consider any relief related to the automatic stay under Bankruptcy Code section 362(a), use Cash Collateral, or to obtain any other injunctive relief. Unless otherwise expressly provided, any delay or failure of the Notes Trustee and/or the other Prepetition Secured Parties to exercise rights under the Prepetition SSN Documents and/or this Interim Order shall not constitute a waiver of their respective rights

hereunder, thereunder, or otherwise. The occurrence of the Termination Date or a Termination Event shall not affect the validity, priority, or enforceability of any and all rights, remedies, benefits, and protections provided to any of the Prepetition Secured Parties under this Interim Order, which rights, remedies, benefits, and protections shall survive the Termination Date or the delivery of Termination Declaration.

9 Payments Free and Clear. Subject in all respects to paragraph 18, any and all payments or proceeds remitted to the Notes Trustee, for the benefit of the Prepetition Secured Parties, pursuant to the provisions of this Interim Order shall be irrevocable, received free and clear of any claim, charge, assessment, or other liability, including without limitation, any such claim or charge arising out of or based on, directly or indirectly, section 506(c) (whether asserted or assessed by, through or on behalf of the Debtor) or section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

10 Limitation on Charging Expenses Against Collateral. Except to the extent of the Carve Out, no costs or expenses, including any costs or expenses of administration of the Cases or any Successor Cases or any future proceeding that may result therefrom, shall be charged against or recovered from the Adequate Protection Collateral (including Cash Collateral) or Prepetition Collateral pursuant to section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar principle of law; provided that the foregoing waiver shall be without prejudice to any provision of the Final Order with respect to costs or expenses incurred following the entry of the Final Order.

11 Reservation of Rights of the Prepetition Secured Parties. This Interim Order and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be without prejudice to (a) the rights of any of the Prepetition Secured Parties to seek additional or different adequate protection, move to vacate the automatic stay, move for the appointment of a trustee or examiner, move to dismiss or convert the Cases, or to take any other action in the Cases and to appear and be heard in any matter raised in

the Cases, or the right of any party in interest from contesting any of the foregoing, and (b) any and all rights, remedies, claims, and causes of action which the Prepetition Secured Parties may have against any non-Debtor party; provided that nothing in the foregoing paragraph modifies the rights and obligations of the Prepetition Secured Parties under the RSA. For adequate protection purposes, each of the Prepetition Secured Parties shall be deemed to have requested relief from the automatic stay and for adequate protection for any Diminution in Value from and after the Petition Date. For the avoidance of doubt, such request will survive termination of this Interim Order.

12 Modification of Automatic Stay. The Debtors are authorized and directed to perform all acts and to make, execute, and deliver any and all instruments as may be necessary to implement the terms and conditions of this Interim Order and the transactions contemplated hereby. The stay of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code is hereby modified to permit the parties to accomplish the transactions contemplated by this Interim Order.

13 Survival of Interim Order. The provisions of this Interim Order shall be binding upon any trustee appointed during the Cases or upon a conversion to cases under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, and any actions taken in reliance hereof shall survive entry of any order which may be entered converting the Cases to chapter 7 cases, dismissing the Cases under section 1112 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, confirming or consummating any plan(s) of reorganization or liquidation or otherwise, or approving or consummating any sale of any Prepetition Collateral or Adequate Protection Collateral, whether pursuant to section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or included as part of any plan. The terms and provisions of this Interim Order, as well as the priorities in payments, liens, and security interests granted pursuant to this Interim Order, shall continue notwithstanding any conversion of the Cases to chapter 7 cases under the Bankruptcy Code, dismissal of the Cases, confirmation or consummation of any plan(s) of reorganization or

liquidation, approval or consummation of any sale, or otherwise. Subject to the provisions and limitations described in paragraph 18 of this Interim Order, the Adequate Protection Payments made pursuant to this Interim Order shall not be subject to counterclaim, setoff, subordination, recharacterization, defense, or avoidance in the Cases or any subsequent chapter 7 case or other proceeding (other than a defense that the payment has actually been made).

14 No Third-Party Rights. Except as explicitly provided for herein, this Interim Order does not create any rights for the benefit of any third party, creditor, equity holder, or any direct, indirect, or incidental beneficiary.

15 Release. Subject to the rights, provisions, and limitations set forth in paragraph 18 of this Interim Order, effective upon entry of this Interim Order, the Debtors hereby unconditionally, irrevocably, and fully forever release, remise, acquit, relinquish, irrevocably waive, and discharge each of the Prepetition Secured Parties (each in their respective roles as such), and each of their respective affiliates, former, current, or future officers, employees, directors, agents, representatives, owners, members, partners, financial advisors, legal advisors, shareholders, managers, consultants, accountants, attorneys, affiliates, assigns, agents, and predecessors in interest, each in their capacity as such, of and from any and all claims, demands, liabilities, responsibilities, disputes, remedies, causes of action, indebtedness and obligations, rights, assertions, allegations, actions, suits, controversies, proceedings, losses, damages, injuries, attorneys’ fees, costs, expenses, or judgments of every type, whether known, unknown, asserted, unasserted, suspected, unsuspected, accrued, unaccrued, fixed, contingent, pending, or threatened, including, without limitation, all legal and equitable theories of recovery, arising under common law, statute, or regulation or by contract, of every nature and description that exist on the date hereof with respect to or relating to the Senior Secured Notes, the Prepetition Liens, the Prepetition

Secured Indebtedness, the Prepetition SSN Documents, or this Interim Order, as applicable, and/or the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder, including, without limitation, (i) any so-called “lender liability” or equitable subordination claims or defenses, (ii) any and all claims and causes of action arising under the Bankruptcy Code, and (iii) any and all claims and causes of action regarding the validity, priority, extent, enforceability, perfection, or avoidability of the liens or claims of the Prepetition Secured Parties.

as of the Petition Date. The stipulations, admissions, waivers, and releases contained in this Interim Order, including, the Debtors’ Stipulations and the release in paragraph 15 (the “Release”), shall be binding upon the Debtors’ estates (and all successors of the Debtors) and all other parties in interest, including any Committee and any other person acting on behalf of the Debtors’ estates, including a trustee, except to the extent a party in interest and, for purposes of such exception, solely to the extent such party in interest obtains proper standing and has timely and properly filed an adversary proceeding or contested matter under the Bankruptcy Rules asserting a Challenge (as defined below): (i) on or before the date that is 35 calendar days after entry of the Interim Order; provided that if a Committee is appointed prior to the expiration of such 35-five day period, such Committee shall have until the later of such 35-day period and the date that is 60 calendar days after its appointment, except that in no event shall the deadline described above extend beyond the first day of any hearing held in the Cases to consider confirmation of a chapter 11 plan for the Debtors (in each case, a “Challenge Period”, and the date of expiration of such Challenge Period, the “Challenge Period Termination Date”); provided, however, that if prior to the Challenge Period Termination Date, either the Cases convert to chapter 7 or a chapter 11 trustee is appointed, then in such case the Challenge Period Termination Date shall be extended solely with respect to the trustee until the later of the then Challenge Period Termination Date and the date that is 20 days following such conversion or appointment; (ii) seeking to avoid, object to, or otherwise challenge the Debtors’ Stipulations or the Release regarding: (A) the validity, enforceability, extent, priority, or perfection of Prepetition Liens, including any mortgages or security interests in the Prepetition Collateral; or (B) the validity, enforceability, allowability, priority, secured status, or amount of the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness (any such claim, a “Challenge”); and (iii) in which the Court enters a final order in favor of the plaintiff sustaining any such Challenge in any such timely filed adversary proceeding or contested matter.

(b) Upon the occurrence of the Challenge Period Termination Date without the filing of a Challenge (or if any Challenge is filed and overruled): (i) any and all Challenges by any party (whether on behalf of the Committee, any chapter 11 trustee, and/or any examiner or other estate representative appointed or elected in the Cases, and any chapter 7 trustee and/or examiner or other estate representative appointed or elected in any Successor Cases (as defined below)) shall be deemed to be forever barred; (ii) the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness shall constitute allowed secured claims, not subject to counterclaim, setoff, recoupment, reduction, subordination, recharacterization, defense, or avoidance for all purposes in the Cases and any Successor Cases; (iii) the Prepetition Liens shall be deemed to have been, as of the Petition Date, legal, valid, binding, and perfected liens on the Prepetition Collateral, not subject to recharacterization, subordination, or avoidance; and (iv) all of the Debtors’ stipulations and admissions contained in this Interim Order, including the Debtors’ Stipulations, and all other waivers, releases, affirmations, and other stipulations as to the priority, extent, and validity as to the Prepetition Secured Parties’ claims, liens, and interests contained in this Interim Order shall be in full force and effect and forever binding upon the Debtors, the Debtors’ estates, and all creditors, interest holders, and other parties in interest in these Cases and any Successor Cases.

(c) If any such adversary proceeding or contested matter is timely and properly filed under the Bankruptcy Rules, the stipulations and admissions contained in this Interim Order, including the Debtors’ Stipulations, shall nonetheless remain binding and preclusive on any Committee and any other party-in-interest except to the extent that such stipulations and admissions were successfully and expressly challenged in such adversary proceeding or contested

matter prior to the Challenge Period Termination Date. Nothing in this Interim Order vests or confers on any person (as defined in the Bankruptcy Code), including, without limitation, any Committee appointed in the Cases, standing or authority to pursue any cause of action belonging to the Debtors or their estates, including, without limitation, any challenges (including a Challenge) with respect to the Prepetition SSN Documents, the Prepetition Liens, and the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness, and a separate order of the Court conferring such standing on any Committee or other party-in-interest shall be a prerequisite for the prosecution of a Challenge by such Committee or such other party-in-interest.

19 Limitation on Use of Collateral and Cash Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Interim Order, none of the Adequate Protection Collateral, the Prepetition Collateral, including Cash Collateral, or the Carve Out or proceeds of any of the foregoing may be used: (a) to investigate (including by way of examinations or discovery proceedings), initiate, assert, prosecute, join, commence, support, or finance the initiation or prosecution of any claim, counterclaim, action, suit, arbitration, proceeding, application, motion, objection, defense, adversary proceeding, or other litigation of any type (excluding any proceedings contemplated by paragraph 8 hereof) (i) against any of the Prepetition Secured Parties (in their capacities as such) or any of their respective affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, attorneys, consultants, financial advisors, affiliates, assigns, or successors in such capacity, with respect to any transaction, occurrence, omission, action, or other matter (including formal discovery proceedings in anticipation thereof), including, without limitation, any so-called “lender liability” claims and causes of action, or seeking relief against any of the Prepetition Secured Parties or that that would otherwise impair the rights and remedies of the Prepetition Secured Parties hereunder, under the Prepetition SSN Documents, including, without

limitation, for the payment of any services rendered by the professionals retained by the Debtors or any Committee appointed (if any) in these Cases in connection with the assertion of or joinder in any such claim, counterclaim, action, suit, arbitration, proceeding, application, motion, objection, defense, adversary proceeding, or other contested matter, the purpose of which is to seek, or the result of which would be to obtain, any order, judgment, determination, declaration, or similar relief that would impair the ability of any of the Prepetition Secured Parties to recover on the Prepetition Collateral or the Adequate Protection Collateral or seeking affirmative relief against any of the Prepetition Secured Parties related to the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness; (ii) invalidating, setting aside, avoiding, or subordinating, in whole or in part, the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness or the Prepetition Secured Parties’ Prepetition Liens or security interests in the Prepetition Collateral or the Adequate Protection Collateral, as applicable; or (iii) for monetary, injunctive, or other affirmative relief against any of the Prepetition Secured Parties, or with respect to the Prepetition Secured Parties’ respective liens on or security interests in the Prepetition Collateral or the Adequate Protection Collateral that would impair the ability of any of the Prepetition Secured Parties to assert or enforce any lien, claim, right, or security interest or to realize or recover on the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness, to the extent applicable; (b) for objecting to or challenging in any way the legality, validity, priority, perfection, or enforceability of the claims, liens, or interests (including, without limitation, the Prepetition Liens) held by or on behalf of each of the Prepetition Secured Parties related to the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness; (c) for asserting, commencing, or prosecuting any claims or causes of action whatsoever, including, without limitation, any Avoidance Actions related to or in connection with the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness or the Prepetition Liens, including any cause of action seeking to invalidate, set aside, avoid, or subordinate, in whole or in part, the Prepetition Secured

Indebtedness, the Prepetition Liens, or Adequate Protection Liens; (d) for prosecuting an objection to, contesting in any manner, or raising any defenses to, the validity, extent, amount, perfection, priority, or enforceability of any of the Prepetition Liens or any other rights or interests of any of the Prepetition Secured Parties related to the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness or the Prepetition Liens; or (e) for monetary, injunctive, or other affirmative relief against any of the Prepetition Secured Parties relating in any way to the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness; provided that no more than $50,000 of the proceeds of the Adequate Protection Collateral, or the Prepetition Collateral, including the Cash Collateral, in the aggregate, may be used solely by any Committee appointed (if any) in these Cases, if any, solely to investigate, prior to the Challenge Period Termination Date, any potential Challenge, including claims, causes of action, adversary proceedings, or other litigation against the Prepetition Secured Parties solely concerning the legality, validity, priority, perfection, enforceability, or extent of the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness and/or the Prepetition Liens.

20 Enforceability; Waiver of Any Applicable Stay. This Interim Order shall constitute findings of fact and conclusions of law and shall take effect and be fully enforceable nunc pro tunc to the Petition Date immediately upon entry hereof. Notwithstanding Bankruptcy Rule 6004(h), 6006(d), 7062, 9014, or any other Bankruptcy Rule, or Rule 62(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, this Interim Order shall be immediately effective and enforceable upon its entry and there shall be no stay of execution or effectiveness of this Interim Order.

21 No Waiver for Failure to Seek Relief. The failure or delay of any of the Notes Trustee or the Prepetition Secured Parties to seek relief or otherwise exercise any of its rights and remedies under this Interim Order, the Prepetition SSN Documents or applicable law, as the case may be, shall not constitute a waiver of any rights hereunder, thereunder, or otherwise, by the Notes Trustee or the Prepetition Secured Parties, as applicable.

22 Proofs of Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any prior or subsequent order of the Court, including, without limitation, any order establishing a deadline for the filing of proofs of claim or requests for payment of administrative expenses under section 503(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, if any, the Prepetition Secured Parties shall not be required to file any proof of claim or request for payment of administrative expenses with respect to any of the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness, the Prepetition Liens, the Adequate Protection Liens, or the Adequate Protection Claims; and the failure to file any such proof of claim or request for payment of administrative expenses shall not affect the validity, priority, or enforceability of any of the Prepetition SSN Documents, Prepetition Secured Indebtedness, the Prepetition Liens, the Adequate Protection Liens, or the Adequate Protection Claims or prejudice or otherwise adversely affect the Prepetition Secured Parties’ rights, remedies, powers, or privileges under any of the Prepetition SSN Documents, this Interim Order, or applicable law. The Stipulations shall be deemed to constitute a timely filed proof of claim on behalf of each of the Prepetition Secured Parties with respect to the Prepetition Secured Indebtedness and all related obligations in these Cases or any Successor Cases (as defined herein). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Notes Trustee, on behalf of itself and the Prepetition Secured Parties, is authorized and entitled, but not required, to file (and amend and/or supplement, as each sees fit) a proof of claim and/or master proof of claim for any claim described herein or otherwise related to any Prepetition Secured Indebtedness. The provisions set forth in this paragraph are intended solely for the purpose of administrative convenience and shall not affect the substantive rights of any party-in-interest or their respective successors-in-interest.

23 Section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Prepetition Secured Parties shall each be entitled to all of the rights and benefits of section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, and the “equities of the case” exception under section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code shall not apply to any of the Prepetition Secured Parties with respect to proceeds, products, offspring, or profits of any of the Prepetition Collateral or the Adequate Protection Collateral; provided that the foregoing waiver shall be without prejudice to any provisions of the Final Order.

24 No Marshaling. The Prepetition Secured Parties shall not be subject to the equitable doctrine of “marshaling” or any other similar doctrine with respect to any of the Prepetition Collateral or the Adequate Protection Collateral; provided that the foregoing waiver shall be without prejudice to any provisions of the Final Order.

25 Expense Invoices; Disputes; Indemnification.

(a) The Debtors’ obligation to pay the professional fees and expenses of the Notes Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Ad Hoc Senior Secured Group, the Ad Hoc 26s/28s/29s Noteholder Group, and Renesas as provided in paragraph 4 of this Interim Order shall not require further Court approval, except as otherwise provided for below.

(b) The professional fees and expenses covered by paragraph 4 of this Interim Order shall be payable without the necessity of filing formal fee applications or complying with the U.S. Trustee Guidelines; provided that copies of statements or invoices for such professional fees, expenses, and disbursements (the “Invoiced Fees”) shall be served by email on counsel to the Debtors, the U.S. Trustee, and counsel to any Committee (if appointed), who shall have 10 calendar days (the “Review Period”) to review and assert any objections thereto. Invoiced Fees shall be in the form of an invoice summary for professional fees and categorized expenses incurred during the pendency of the Cases, and such invoice summary shall not be required to contain time

entries, but shall include a general, brief description of the nature of the matters for which services were performed and the number of hours performed by each professional and which may be redacted or modified to the extent necessary to delete any information subject to the attorney-client privilege, any work product doctrine, privilege or protection, common interest doctrine privilege or protection, any other evidentiary privilege or protection recognized under applicable law, or any other confidential information, and the provision of such invoices shall not constitute any waiver of the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine, privilege or protection, common interest doctrine privilege or protection, or any other evidentiary privilege or protection recognized under applicable law. The Debtors, any Committee, or the U.S. Trustee may dispute the payment of any portion of the Invoiced Fees (the “Disputed Invoiced Fees”) if, within the Review Period, the Debtors, any Committee, or the U.S. Trustee notifies the submitting party in writing setting forth the specific objections to the Disputed Invoiced Fees. If the parties are unable to reach resolution with respect to the Disputed Invoiced Fees, then the Court may resolve any such issues upon prior notice and a hearing. For the avoidance of doubt, following the Review Period, the Debtors shall promptly pay in full all Invoiced Fees other than the Disputed Invoiced Fees.

(c) The Prepetition Secured Parties have acted in good faith and without negligence, misconduct, or violation of public policy or law, in respect of all actions taken by them in connection with or related in any way to negotiating, implementing, documenting, or obtaining requisite approvals of the use of Cash Collateral, including in respect of the granting of Adequate Protection Liens, any challenges or objections to the use of Cash Collateral, and all other documents related to and all transactions contemplated by the foregoing. Accordingly, without abrogating or limiting the indemnification provisions set forth in any of the Prepetition SSN Documents, the Debtors shall indemnify each of the Prepetition Secured Parties and their

respective affiliates, successors, and assigns and the officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, advisors, controlling persons, and members of each of the foregoing (each an “Indemnified Person”) and hold them harmless from and against all costs, expenses (including but not limited to reasonable and documented legal fees and expenses), and liabilities arising out of or relating to the transactions, procedures, and/or relief contemplated by this Interim Order, except to the extent such Indemnified Person has been found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have acted with fraud, with willful misconduct, or in bad faith. No Indemnified Person shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort, or otherwise) to the Debtors or any shareholders or creditors of the Debtors for or in connection with the transactions, procedures, and/or relief contemplated by this Interim Order, except to the extent such liability is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from such Indemnified Person’s fraud, bad faith, or willful misconduct, and in no event shall any Indemnified Person be liable on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential, or punitive damages.

26 Credit Bidding and Sale Provisions. Subject to paragraph 18 hereof and the provisions of section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Notes Trustee shall have the right to credit bid (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) up to the full amount of the Prepetition Secured Parties’ Prepetition Secured Indebtedness, including the Adequate Protection Superpriority Claims, if any, in any sale of all or any portion of the Prepetition Collateral or the Adequate Protection Collateral, including, without limitation, sales occurring pursuant to section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or included as part of any chapter 11 plan. The Debtors shall not object to, or solicit, support, or encourage any objection to, any rights set forth in this paragraph 26.

27 Headings. The headings in this Interim Order are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning of this Interim Order.

28 Retention of Jurisdiction. The Court has and will retain jurisdiction to enforce this Interim Order and with respect to all matters arising from or related to the implementation of this Interim Order.

29 With respect to the indebtedness owed by the Debtors to Wells Fargo in respect of the P-Card Agreement, Wells Fargo has and shall continue to have a valid and perfected, non-avoidable first-priority lien in that certain deposit account identified in the Security Agreement in respect of the P-Card Agreement (the “Wells Collateral”), which secures such indebtedness and any proceeds thereof, subject to the P-Card Agreement with respect to all obligations related to the P-Card Agreement and other treasury management fees and other charges and expenses of Wells Fargo. Such lien on the Wells Collateral shall not be primed by any lien granted to any postpetition lender or other person.

INTRODUCTION

Often referred to as the “best interests” test, section 1129(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code¹ requires, as a condition to confirmation, that the chapter 11 plan provides, with respect to each impaired class, that each holder of a claim or interest in their respective impaired class either (i) accepts the plan or (ii) receives or retains under the plan property of a value, as of the assumed effective date of the confirmed plan, that is not less than the amount such holder would receive if the debtor was liquidated under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

To demonstrate that the Plan satisfies the “best interests” test, the Debtors, with the assistance of their financial advisors, FTI Consulting, Inc., have prepared this hypothetical liquidation analysis (the “Liquidation Analysis”) and have taken the following steps:

i) estimated the cash proceeds that a chapter 7 trustee (a “Trustee”) would generate if each Debtor’s chapter 11 case were instead a chapter 7 case filed on the Petition Date and the assets of such Debtor’s Estate were liquidated (the “Liquidation Proceeds”);

ii) determined the distribution that each Holder of a Claim or Interest would receive from the Liquidation Proceeds under the priority scheme set forth in chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code giving effect to the different collateral packages securing various claimants (the “Liquidation Distribution”); and

iii) compared each Holder’s Liquidation Distribution to the distribution such Holder would receive under the Debtors’ Plan if the Plan were confirmed and consummated.

This Liquidation Analysis represents an estimate of cash distributions and recovery percentages based on a hypothetical chapter 7 liquidation of the Debtors’ assets as an alternative to the Plan. It is, therefore, a hypothetical analysis based on certain assumptions discussed herein and in the Disclosure Statement. As such, asset values and claims discussed herein may differ materially from amounts referred to in the Plan and Disclosure Statement. This Liquidation Analysis should be read in conjunction with the assumptions, qualifications, and explanations set forth in the Disclosure Statement and the Plan in their entirety, as well as the notes and assumptions set forth below.

The determination of the costs of, and proceeds from, the hypothetical liquidation of the Debtors’ assets in a chapter 7 case involves the use of estimates and assumptions that, although considered reasonable by the Debtors based on their business judgment and input from their advisors, are subject to significant business, economic, competitive uncertainties and contingencies beyond the control of the Debtors, their management and their advisors. This Liquidation Analysis was prepared for the sole purpose of generating a reasonable, good faith estimate of the proceeds that would be generated if the Debtors’ assets were liquidated in accordance with chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Liquidation Analysis is not intended, and should not be used, for any other purpose.

¹	Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meaning assigned to them in the Disclosure Statement.

All limitations and risk factors set forth in the Disclosure Statement are applicable to this Liquidation Analysis and are incorporated by reference herein. The underlying financial information in the Liquidation Analysis was prepared using policies that are generally consistent with those applied in historical financial statements but was not compiled or examined by independent accountants and was not prepared to comply with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles or SEC reporting requirements.

Based on this Liquidation Analysis, the Debtors, with the assistance of their restructuring advisors, believe the Plan satisfies the “best interests” test and that each Holder of an Impaired Claim or Interest will receive value under the Plan on the Effective Date that is not less than the value such Holder would receive if the Debtors liquidated under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors believe that this Liquidation Analysis and the conclusions set forth herein are fair and represent the Debtors’ best judgment regarding the results of a hypothetical liquidation of the Debtors under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

THE DEBTORS AND THEIR ADVISORS MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES REGARDING THE ACCURACY OF THE ESTIMATES CONTAINED HEREIN OR A CHAPTER 7 TRUSTEE’S ABILITY TO ACHIEVE FORECASTED RESULTS. IN THE EVENT THESE CHAPTER 11 CASES ARE CONVERTED TO CHAPTER 7 LIQUIDATIONS, ACTUAL RESULTS COULD VARY MATERIALLY FROM THE ESTIMATES SET FORTH IN THIS LIQUIDATION ANALYSIS.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Liquidation Analysis assumes a chapter 7 liquidation commences on or about September 5, 2025 (the “Conversion Date”), on which date it is assumed that the Bankruptcy Court would appoint a Trustee to oversee the liquidation of the Debtors’ estates.

The Liquidation Analysis has been prepared assuming that the Debtors filed cases under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code on or about the Conversion Date. Except as otherwise noted herein, the values reflected in this Liquidation Analysis are based upon the Debtors’ unaudited books and records as of April 30, 2025. Such values are assumed to be representative of the Debtors’ assets and liabilities as of November 7, 2025 (the “Liquidation Date”). As part of the Liquidation Analysis, the Debtors assume the Trustee would liquidate each of the Debtors and each of the wholly owned subsidiaries of the Debtors. In turn, liquidation of the Debtors is assumed to lead to liquidation of non-debtors’ interests. The cessation of business in a liquidation is likely to trigger certain claims and funding requirements that would otherwise not exist under the Plan. Such claims could include incremental contract rejection damages claims, priority tax claims from government grants and tax credits and chapter 7 administrative expense claims, including wind down costs, trustee fees, and professional fees, among other claims. Some of these claims and funding obligations could be significant and may be entitled to administrative or priority status in payment from Liquidation Proceeds. The Debtors’ estimates of claims set forth in the Liquidation Analysis should not be relied on for the purpose of determining the value of any distribution to be made on account of Allowed Claims or Interests under the Plan.

NOTHING CONTAINED IN THE LIQUIDATION ANALYSIS IS INTENDED TO BE, OR CONSTITUTES, A CONCESSION, ADMISSION, OR ALLOWANCE OF ANY CLAIM OR INTEREST BY THE DEBTORS. THE ACTUAL AMOUNT OR PRIORITY OF ALLOWED CLAIMS AND INTERESTS IN THE CHAPTER 11 CASES COULD MATERIALLY DIFFER FROM THE ESTIMATED AMOUNTS SET FORTH AND USED IN THE LIQUIDATION ANALYSIS. THE DEBTORS RESERVE ALL RIGHTS TO SUPPLEMENT, MODIFY, OR AMEND THE ANALYSIS SET FORTH HEREIN.

Chapter 7 administrative expense claims that arise in a liquidation scenario would be paid in full from the Liquidation Proceeds prior to proceeds being made available for distribution to Holders of Allowed Claims. Under the “absolute priority rule,” no junior creditor may receive any distributions until all senior creditors are paid in full, and no equity holder may receive any distribution until all creditors are paid in full. The assumed distributions to creditors as reflected in the Liquidation Analysis are estimated in accordance with the absolute priority rule.

This Liquidation Analysis does not include any recoveries or related litigation costs resulting from any potential preference, fraudulent transfer, or other litigation or avoidance actions that may be available under the Bankruptcy Code because of the cost of such litigation, the uncertainty of the outcome, and potential disputes regarding these matters. To the extent such actions exist or are anticipated, this Liquidation Analysis assumes there are no recoveries related to any known, actual, ongoing or anticipated litigious actions. The Liquidation Analysis does not estimate contingent, unliquidated claims against the Debtors. Finally, the Liquidation Analysis does not include estimates for additional tax consequences that may be triggered upon the liquidation and sale of assets in the manner described above. Such tax consequences may be material.

LIQUIDATION PROCESS

The Debtors’ liquidation would be conducted pursuant to chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors have assumed that their liquidation would occur in an orderly process over a period of four months (the “Liquidation Period”) during which time the Trustee would effectively monetize substantially all the assets on the consolidated balance sheet in an orderly disposition and administer and wind down the Debtors’ estates (the “Estates”).² This analysis assumes the business is operated in the normal course for two-months following the Conversion Date, in order to maximize recovery of inventory and complete customer product needs, followed by a two-month period of the remaining estate wind-down.

As part of the Trustee’s liquidation process, the initial step would be to develop a liquidation plan designed to generate proceeds from the sale of assets that the Trustee would then distribute to creditors. This liquidation process would have three major components:

•

Cash proceeds from asset sales (“Gross Liquidation Proceeds”);

Although the Liquidation Analysis assumes the liquidation process would occur over a period of four months, it is possible the disposition and recovery from certain assets could take shorter or longer to realize. Throughout this period, the Trustee would also incur administrative expenses, such as payroll, certain overhead, and professional expenses reasonably required to complete the wind-down of the Estates.

•

Costs to liquidate the business and administer the Estates under chapter 7 (“Chapter 7 Liquidation Costs”); and

•

Remaining proceeds available for distribution to claimants (“Liquidation Proceeds Available to Distribute”).

Gross Liquidation Proceeds

The Gross Liquidation Proceeds reflect the total proceeds the Trustee would generate from a hypothetical chapter 7 liquidation. Under section 704 of the Bankruptcy Code, a Trustee must, among other duties, collect and convert property of the Estates as expeditiously as is compatible with the best interests of parties in interest, which could result in potentially distressed recoveries. This Liquidation Analysis assumes the Trustee will market the assets on an accelerated timeline and consummate the sale transactions within two months from the Conversion Date. In order to maximize returns, the Debtors will run the business in the normal course through the end of September 2025 followed by a wind-down of the remaining Estates. Even in an orderly disposition, asset values in the liquidation process will likely be materially reduced due to, among other things, (i) the accelerated time frame in which the assets are marketed and sold, (ii) the relative scale which certain Debtors’ assets represent of the overall market and potential impact of introducing such assets to the market all at once, (iii) negative vendor and customer reaction, and (iv) the generally forced nature of the sale.

II.

Chapter 7 Liquidation Costs

Chapter 7 Liquidation Costs reflect the costs the Trustee is expected to incur to monetize the assets and wind down the Estates in chapter 7. These costs will be incurred during the period from the Conversion Date through the Liquidation Period and include two months of operations (to facilitate selling assets as a going concern and liquidation of fixed assets) and two months of Estate wind down costs. The Chapter 7 Liquidation Costs include the following:

•

Expenses necessary to efficiently and effectively monetize the assets;

•

Chapter 7 Trustee fees; and

•

Chapter 7 professional fees (lawyers, financial advisors, and investment bankers to support the sale and transition of assets over the Liquidation Period).

III.

Liquidation Proceeds Available to Distribute

The Liquidation Proceeds Available to Distribute reflect amounts available to Holders of Claims and Interests after the Liquidation Costs are netted against the Gross Liquidation Proceeds. Under this analysis, the Liquidation Proceeds are distributed to Holders of Claims against, and Interests in, the Debtors in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code’s priority scheme.

CONCLUSION

The Debtors have determined that, on the Effective Date, the Plan will provide all Holders of Allowed Claims and Interests with a recovery that is not less than what they would otherwise receive pursuant to a liquidation of the Debtors’ assets under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. Accordingly, the Plan satisfies the requirement of section 1129(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Liquidation Analysis should be reviewed with the accompanying “Specific Notes to the Liquidation Analysis” set forth on the following pages.³

³	Claim amounts are estimates as of June 2025 and are subject to change.

SPECIFIC NOTES TO THE LIQUIDATION ANALYSIS

Gross Liquidation Proceeds

The below table summarizes the estimated recovery percentages for each of the Debtors’ assets.


Note	Asset Type / Assumptions	Debtors’ Recovery
A	Cash and cash equivalents consist of the estimated balance of cash and cash equivalents as of the Conversion Date. This amount includes cash in bank accounts owned by the Debtors and, and the estimated accounts for inflows and outflows contemplated under the cash collateral budget, with adjustments for chapter 7 specific impacts including but not limited to revenue deterioration, reduction in capital expenditure spend and reduction in payroll.	100%

B	Trade receivables consist primarily of amounts owed under billing arrangements with car manufacturers, energy companies and distributors in a diverse range of industries. Trade receivables reflect gross balances, and the recovery range reflects discounts due to potential breach of contracts and offsets. Trade receivable balances have been updated for end of April 2025 and are assumed to remain similar through the Liquidation Period.	48% to 71%

B1	Other receivables consist primarily of (i) grant receivables related to Mohawk Valley and Siler City, (ii) customer contract supply agreements, and (iii) miscellaneous other receivables. Zero to minimal recovery is expected on account of these assets due to contractual offsets and the accounting nature versus market value of the assets.	0% to 6%

C	Prepaid expenses and other assets consist of several corporate accounts, including but not limited to prepaid insurance, prepaid rent, supplier deposits, other prepaid expenses, and other deposits. These prepayments are generally non-refundable by contract and have a variety of offsets. As a result, minimal recovery is expected.	7% to 15%

D	Tax assets consist of 48D credits and other income/VAT tax receivables. Due to breach of contract, all grant and tax receivable assets are deemed to have zero recovery. Book value of property, plant, and equipment (“PP&E”) is offset by applied tax assets on the Company’s Books and Records. For this analysis, the book value of tax assets and PP&E are shown for consistency with historical reporting, but all recovery analysis was reviewed on a gross asset basis.	0%



E	Inventory consists of all stages: (i) raw materials, (ii) work-in-progress, and (iii) finished goods. The majority of these assets sit in the semi-finished stage. Recoveries on these assets are expected to be limited because inventory is bespoke to certain customers.	19% to 27%

F1	Marcy Mohawk Valley Facility: This is the first and largest 200mm Silicon Carbide fabrication facility. This is an automated power wafer fabrication facility that is complemented by our mega materials factory expansion currently underway at the Debtors’ Durham, North Carolina headquarters. In a Liquidation scenario, the Mohawk Valley Fab will be sold as one individual asset and recovery was determined based on a sum of the parts analysis. Due to the automated facility capabilities and other unique nature of the tools, a high case scenario represents a semiconductor company showing interest in acquiring the full facility. The low case assumes individual assets are liquidated and the remaining building and lease rights are sold separately for non-semiconductor use.	10%-53%

F2	Siler City (John Palmour Manufacturing Center): This facility is 1M+ square feet, designed specifically for the Debtors’ manufacturing process. The only ability to use the facility for its intended purpose is to acquire the Debtors’ full business operations, team, IP and other assets. High construction costs reflect extensive customization, including specialized cleanroom infrastructure, HVAC, power redundancy, and cooling controls—features critical for the original manufacturing use but with limited appeal beyond that use case.

	Due to its bespoke design, the building has limited utility for general industrial or commercial applications, reducing marketability in a liquidation or fire sale scenario. While there is some potential for reuse as a powered shell or conversion to a data center, this would require additional investment and is contingent on demand in the local market. As a result, recovery value is expected to be materially lower than the original construction cost or book value, with disposition at a significant discount unless a strategic buyer can repurpose the space for semiconductor or other specialized use (representing the high case).	15%-59%

F3	Other Locations: All remaining locations were evaluated under a fire sale scenario. A detailed asset-level review was conducted across categories including buildings, land, leasehold/building improvements, machinery & equipment, tooling, IT assets, furniture & fixtures, assets under construction, and vehicles. Recovery rates were developed based on discussions with the Debtors’ operations, finance, and management personnel, and were further informed by	15%-26%



	current market conditions in the semiconductor industry. Historical outcomes from comparable asset sales by the Debtors were also considered. This analysis supported the application of materially discounted recoveries relative to net book value.

G	Intangibles & Goodwill consists of patents, trademarks and developed technology. To protect trade secrets and product details, the Debtors have historically not filed patents on technological capabilities. In a liquidation scenario, the market value of the Semiconductor patterns has a high likelihood of being sold to a strategic counterparty. The Debtors estimate a recovery of $50-$100M but would note this is a subjective estimate based on market conditions and interest.	$50-$100M

H	Other Assets consist primarily of intercompany receivables, investment in subsidiaries and right-of-use assets. These have no recoverable value in a liquidation scenario outside of minimal recovery from spare parts and interest income earned and not yet received.	$0-$4M

Chapter 7 Liquidation Costs

I: Liquidation Wind-Down Expenses

Wind-down costs are assumed to consist primarily of the ordinary course operations and general and administrative costs that will be required to operate the Debtors’ business for a four-month period after the Conversion Date, which is expected to be the amount of time required to expeditiously wind down the Debtors’ Estates.

The Liquidation Analysis estimates total wind-down costs of approximately $42 million, representing (a) two months of operating cash flow followed by (b) two months of Estate wind down costs (including facility operations, limited personnel, and corporate general and administrative expenses).

To maximize recoveries on the Debtors’ assets, minimize the amount of claims, and generally ensure an orderly chapter 7 liquidation, the Liquidation Analysis assumes that the business is run in the normal course until the end of October 2025, with minor adjustments related to reduced capital expenditures, reduced collections and reduced operational spend. Upon this date, it is assumed that the majority of asset sales are complete and the remaining business units retain staff to vacate facilities, sell remaining PP&E and inventory, and finalize cash collections and payroll. Staff will be retained to oversee employee matters, payroll and tax reporting, accounts payable and other books and records, and respond to certain legal matters related to the wind-down of the Debtors’ affairs.

J: Chapter 7 Trustee Fees

Section 326(a) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that Trustee fees may not exceed 3% of distributable proceeds in excess of $1 million. The Liquidation Analysis assumes the Trustee fees total approximately 3.0% of Gross Liquidation Proceeds from external assets, which equals approximately $23 million to $65 million, in the low and high scenarios, respectively.

K: Trustee Professional Fees

The Liquidation Analysis assumes the Trustee will retain lawyers, financial advisors, and investment bankers to assist in the liquidation. The chapter 7 professional fees include estimates for such professionals that will assist the Trustee during the Liquidation Period. These advisors will, among other things, assist in marketing the Debtors’ assets, litigating claims and resolving tax litigation matters, and resolving other matters relating to the wind down of the Debtors’ Estates. The Liquidation Analysis estimates professional fees at 2.0% of Gross Liquidation Proceeds, excluding cash & cash equivalents.

Liquidation Proceeds Available to Distribute

Based on the Liquidation Analysis, the Liquidation Proceeds Available to Distribute to the Debtors’ Holders of Claims and Interests range from approximately $1,431 million to $2,761 million.

Claims

L: Senior Secured Notes Claims

The Liquidation Analysis estimates the Senior Secured Notes as of the Petition Date. The Liquidation Analysis assumes estimated Senior Secured Notes Claims of $1,812 million, comprised of a $1,500 million principal facility and accrued amounts owed as of the Liquidation Date. These claims are secured by priority liens on all the Debtors’ assets with limited exceptions. The Liquidation Analysis assumes the Liquidation Proceeds generated would be sufficient to satisfy 100% of the Senior Secured Notes Claims in the high scenario and 79% in the low scenario. In a liquidation, the Trustee may challenge the estimated amount of the Senior Secured Notes Claims, and there are no assurances that Holders of Senior Secured Notes Claims would receive an Allowed Claim in a liquidation scenario as large as under the Plan.

M: Administrative Claims and Other Secured Claims

The Debtors’ post-petition business expenses, required to operate in the normal course, qualify as administrative expenses under section 503(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. This also assumes employees terminated in connection with the liquidation of the businesses will be entitled to severance in accordance with local jurisdiction laws. All unpaid post-petition professional fees are included as administrative expenses (excluding success fees which are deemed unearned). The Liquidation Analysis assumes the Debtors will have $57 million in Administrative Claims. Additionally, capital expenditures will result in secured liens against the Debtors’ assets. The Plan assumes the business is run in the normal course with resulting Other Secured Claims in line with historical accounts payable and accrued liability balances resulting in lien and 503(b)(9) claims. The Liquidation Analysis assumes the Debtors will have $119 million in Other Secured Claims, including the Senior Secured Notes unused commitment fee.

It is likely that additional priority, administrative, or liquidation related claims could arise in the event of a liquidation, particularly during final accounting and tax audits. Such additional claims have not been estimated but would further reduce recoveries.

N: Priority Tax Claims

The Liquidation Analysis assumes ordinary course accrued tax claims and tax claims related to claw backs from government incentives and grants. Ordinary Course tax claims are estimated at $15 million and reflect the Debtors’ best estimates as of the Petition Date and reflected in the Emergency Motion of Debtors for an Order (I) Authorizing Debtors to Pay Certain Prepetition Taxes and (II) Granting Related Relief.

This analysis additionally assumes taxes on sale or transfer of equipment in jurisdictions where tax incentives or grants were taken but will not have been satisfied (generally a minimum time requirement) due to the liquidation. The Grant Disbursement Agreement, dated April 24, 2020 (as amended, the “GDS”), by and between New York State Urban Development Corporation d/b/a Empire State Development Corporation (“ESD”) and Wolfspeed, Inc. (“Wolfspeed”), includes conditions on ESD’s obligation to fund certain grants, including (1) Wolfspeed’s “material compliance” with the agreement and (2) that there has been no “materially adverse change” in Wolfspeed’s financial condition. Additionally, the Debtors have received tax credits under the Advanced Manufacturing Investment credit, 48D tax credits, which are aimed to incentivize domestic manufacturing of semiconductors in the United States. A recapture event generally occurs if the property for which the credit was claimed is disposed of, ceases to be part of an eligible facility, or ceases to be used in an eligible manner within 5 years of the placed-in-service date. If a company liquidates, that often involves the sale or distribution of assets, which would usually count as a disposition of the property. In this hypothetical chapter 7 case, the company may trigger partial or full recapture of the previously claimed credits and grants. As of the Petition Date, the Debtors have been funded approximately $700 million as part of the Government Grants and Funding with an assumption that $550 million is subject to a secured claim.

O: Convertible Note Claims

The Liquidation Analysis assumes the balance of the Convertible Notes is unchanged from the Petition Date. The Liquidation Analysis assumes estimated Convertible Note Claims of $3,097 million with maturities due in 2026, 2028, and 2029. The Liquidation Analysis assumes the Liquidation Proceeds generated would not be sufficient to satisfy any of the Convertible Note Claims in the low recovery scenario and 3.8% in the high scenario.

P: Renesas Claims

The Liquidation Analysis assumes the balance of the term loans under the Unsecured Customer Refundable Deposit Agreement is unchanged from the Petition Date. The Liquidation Analysis estimates this claim at $2,127 million. The Liquidation Analysis assumes the Liquidation Proceeds generated would not be sufficient to satisfy any of the Renesas Claims in the low recovery scenario and 3.8% in the high scenario.

Q: General Unsecured Claims

General Unsecured Claims arising in a hypothetical chapter 7 liquidation may include, among other things: (a) prepetition trade Claims; (b) rejection damages Claims; and (c) numerous other types of prepetition liabilities.

The Liquidation Analysis does not include any rejection damages claims for executory contracts the Debtors would be party to as of the Liquidation Date, each of which may be significant. In addition, the Liquidation Analysis does not include Claims that are unliquidated or speculative, including litigation Claims asserted against the Debtors, or potential deficiency claims. The Liquidation Analysis assumes there will be approximately $303 million of General Unsecured Claims outstanding as of the Liquidation Date.

The Liquidation Analysis concludes that General Unsecured Claims will receive 0% and 3.8% recovery in the low and high scenarios, respectively.

R: Intercompany Claims

The Liquidation Analysis assumes there would be no recovery on any Intercompany Claims in a chapter 7 liquidation.

S: Existing Equity Interests

The Liquidation Analysis assumes there would be no recovery on any Existing Equity Interests in a chapter 7 liquidation.

T: Intercompany Interests

The Liquidation Analysis assumes there would be no recovery on Intercompany Interests in a chapter 7 liquidation.

Exhibit E

Financial Projections

Financial Projections

Introduction¹

Section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that a debtor demonstrate that confirmation of a plan is not likely to be followed by a liquidation or the need for further financial reorganization of the reorganized debtor or any successor to the debtor. For purposes of demonstrating that the Plan meets this requirement, the Debtors’ management, with the assistance of their restructuring advisors, have prepared these projections (these “Financial Projections”) based on, among other things, the Debtors’ anticipated future financial condition and operational performance. The Financial Projections are presented at the Consolidated level, which incorporates all Debtor and non-Debtor subsidiaries and affiliates. The Debtors, with the assistance of their restructuring advisors, developed and refined the business plan and prepared consolidated financial projections of the Company for June 30, 2025, through June 24, 2029 (the “Projection Period” or “Forecast Period”). The Debtors’ accounting and financial fiscal reporting period spans a year beginning from the end of June.

The Financial Projections assume that the Plan, and all of the transactions contemplated therein, will be consummated in accordance with its terms and the case timeline set forth in the Disclosure Statement. Any significant delay in confirmation of the Plan may have a significant negative impact on the operations and financial performance of the Debtors, including, but not limited to, an increased risk or inability to meet forecasts and the incurrence of higher reorganization expenses.

Although the Financial Projections represent the Debtors’ best estimates and good faith judgment (for which the Debtors believe they have a reasonable basis) of the results of future operations, financial position, and cash flows of the Debtors, they are only estimates and actual results may vary considerably from such Financial Projections. Consequently, the inclusion of the Financial Projections herein should not be regarded as a representation by the Debtors, the Debtors’ restructuring advisors, or any other person that the projected results of the Debtors’ operations, financial position, and cash flows will be achieved. Additional information relating to the principal assumptions used in preparing the Financial Projections are set forth below.

The Financial Projections are based on the Company’s long-term forecast developed in June 2025. The Financial Projections were not prepared to comply with the guidelines for prospective financial statements published by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, and by their nature are not financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).

The Debtors’ independent accountants have neither examined nor compiled the accompanying financial projections and accordingly do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect to the Financial Projections, assume no responsibility for the Financial Projections, and disclaim any association with the Financial Projections.

¹	Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Disclosure Statement to which these Financial Statements are attached.

In addition, while the Financial Projections reflect the operational emergence from chapter 11, the Financial Projections do not reflect the application of fresh start accounting.

The Financial Projections contain certain statements that are forward-looking statements and are based on estimates and assumptions and are necessarily speculative. No representations or warranties are made as to the accuracy of any financial information contained herein or assumptions regarding the Debtors’ businesses and their future results and operations.

The Financial Projections and any forward-looking statements in the Financial Projections are being made by the Debtors as of the date hereof, unless specifically noted otherwise. The Debtors are under no obligation to (and expressly disclaim any obligation to) update or alter the Financial Projections and any forward-looking statements whether because of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Based upon the Financial Projections, the Debtors believe that the Reorganized Debtors will be able to make all payments required pursuant to the Plan and will have sufficient liquidity to continue operating their business during the Projection Period. Accordingly, the Debtors believe that confirmation of the Plan is not likely to be followed by a liquidation or the need for further reorganization. The Debtors also believe that they will be able to repay or refinance on commercially reasonable terms any and all of the indebtedness under the Plan at or before the maturity of such indebtedness. Accordingly, the Debtors believe that the Plan satisfies the feasibility requirement of section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code.

ALTHOUGH THE DEBTORS’ MANAGEMENT HAS PREPARED THE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS IN GOOD FAITH AND BELIEVES THE ASSUMPTIONS TO BE REASONABLE, THE DEBTORS AND REORGANIZED DEBTORS CAN PROVIDE NO ASSURANCE THAT SUCH ASSUMPTIONS WILL BE REALIZED. AS DESCRIBED IN DETAIL IN THE DISCLOSURE STATEMENT, A VARIETY OF RISK FACTORS COULD AFFECT THE REORGANIZED DEBTORS’ FINANCIAL RESULTS AND MUST BE

CONSIDERED. ACCORDINGLY, THE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS SHOULD BE REVIEWED IN CONJUNCTION WITH A REVIEW OF THE RISK FACTORS SET FORTH IN THE DISCLOSURE STATEMENT AND THE ASSUMPTIONS DESCRIBED HEREIN, INCLUDING ALL RELEVANT QUALIFICATIONS AND FOOTNOTES.

Debtor Overview

The Debtors, together with certain of their non-debtor affiliates, are leading developers and manufacturers of wide-bandgap semiconductors, focused on silicon carbide (“SiC”) and gallium nitride (“GaN”) materials. This class of semiconductors, which includes SiC and GaN semiconductors, are considered essential for the future of power electronics used in electric vehicles, the electrical grid, military applications, and upcoming compact portable power applications.

As described in greater detail in the Disclosure Statement, the Company operates through two primary business segments: (a) Materials and (b) Power Devices. The Company’s Materials segment provides SiC bare wafers, epitaxial wafers, and GaN epitaxial layers on silicon carbide wafers. Customers use these materials to produce products for radio-frequency, power, and other applications. In particular, corporate, government, and university customers purchase SiC and GaN materials for research and development focused on radio-frequency and power devices.

General Assumptions & Methodology

The Financial Projections are based on the Debtors’ business plan as informed by current and projected conditions in the Debtors’ markets and were prepared on a holistic basis to reflect the combined results of both their entire business, inclusive of Debtor and non-Debtor activity. The Financial Projections consist of the following non-GAAP unaudited pro forma financial statements: (i) projected income statement, (ii) projected balance sheet, and (iii) projected cash flow statement.

The Financial Projections reflect numerous assumptions, including various assumptions regarding the anticipated future performance of the Debtors, industry performance, general business and economic conditions, and other matters, many of which are beyond the control of the Debtors or their advisors. In addition, the assumptions do not take into account the uncertainty and disruption of business that may accompany a restructuring pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code. Therefore, although the Financial Projections are necessarily presented with numerical specificity, the actual results achieved during the Projection Period may materially vary from the projected results.

The Debtors’ management report and use the Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) metric to assess the ongoing performance of their core operations, which includes adjustments for certain non-operating and one-time costs.²

Non-GAAP Projected Income Statement Assumptions:

Revenue includes sales of its wide bandgap semiconductor products, to be used in a broad range of applications, including electric vehicles, motor drives, power supplies, military communications, radar, satellite, and telecommunications.

The Company’s revenue growth is expected to be driven by several key factors, including the expansion of its manufacturing capabilities through the development of new facilities, such as the facility in Marcy, New York (the “Mohawk Valley Fab”), which will enable the company to increase production of its SiC and GaN devices. The transition of production from the Company’s

²	“*EBITDA*” means net earnings/(loss) before interest expense, income tax expense/(benefit), depreciation and amortization. “Adjusted EBITDA” means EBITDA, as further adjusted for restructuring charges and capital structure initiatives.

North Carolina manufacturing facility to the Mohawk Valley Fab is also expected to drive growth, as the new facility will provide increased capacity, improved efficiency, and enhanced product quality. Additionally, the Company’s strategic partnerships, growing demand for electric vehicles and renewable energy systems, and increasing adoption of its SiC and GaN devices in various end-markets, including industrial, automotive, and aerospace, are also expected to contribute to the Company’s revenue growth. As the Company continues to execute on its growth strategy, including the ramp-up of production at the Mohawk Valley Fab, the Company expects to be well-positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for its products and drive long-term revenue growth.

Revenue is forecasted based on a combination of third-party market data, historical performance, and design-ins and design-wins. Design-ins refer to instances where a customer selects the Company’s components for potential use in a product, while design-wins occur when those components are confirmed for inclusion in a final, revenue-generating product. Resulting year-over-year growth rates are 12%, 18%, 25% and 16% in fiscal year 2026, 2027, 2028, and 2029, respectively.

Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) includes labor, production costs, materials, depreciation, and other direct costs associated with manufacturing its SiC and GaN devices. COGS is expected to be a key area of focus as the Company navigates the transition to the Mohawk Valley Fab and ramps up production of its SiC and GaN devices. Gross margins are heavily impacted by the loading of the Mohawk Valley Fab and the new Siler City, North Carolina (the “Siler City Facility”), with a 25-point spread to cash gross margins. However, the Company is currently executing well on operational actions to optimize its cost structure, including the closure of its Farmers Branch facility in December and the expected closure of its North Carolina manufacturing facility in the second half of 2025. Additionally, yields at the Mohawk Valley Fab are ahead of plan, which is expected to drive improvements in COGS. The Company is also focused on managing its substrate costs, particularly for 200mm substrates. As the Company continues to ramp up production at the Mohawk Valley Fab and drive operational efficiencies, the Company is expected to see improvements in its COGS and gross margins, ultimately driving long-term profitability and competitiveness in the market.

Other Operating Costs consist of research & development, selling, general & administrative costs (“SG&A”) and other expenses. The forecast represents significant reductions in operating costs supported by recent headcount and facility reductions.

Operating Expense Adjustments / Non-Operating Costs reflect normalization items and non-recurring expenses, including non-GAAP to GAAP adjustments such as stock-based compensation and other non-operational costs of the business.

Restructuring / Special Costs include one-time costs related to liability management fees and impacts, integration related expenses, and other restructuring expenses related to headcount actions and other one-time savings.

Interest Expense, Net is based on the pro forma capital structure contemplated by the Plan to be implemented on the Assumed Effective Date and estimated interest income.

Income Tax Expense is forecasted on an entity-by-entity basis using applicable tax rates by jurisdiction.

Other Income / (Expense) consists of gain (loss) from extinguishment of settlements and debt and other accretion related expenses.

Non-GAAP Projected Balance Sheet Assumptions:

The projected balance sheet considers the pro forma capital structure, estimated adjustments to the balance sheet based on cancellation of debt or other liabilities, and exit financing activity, all in conjunction with the Plan.³

Assets:

Cash and Cash Equivalents include the consolidated cash balance of the Reorganized Debtors and non-Debtor subsidiaries, including highly liquid investments.

Accounts Receivable include billed accounts receivable, net of allowances for doubtful accounts. Receivables balances are projected on a days-outstanding calculation based on historical trends and anticipated improvement.

Inventories include raw materials, work-in-progress and finished goods as well as additional amounts related to spare materials. Inventories are forecasted based on the Company’s revenue plan and the reduction fiscal year 2026- 2029 represents consolidation plan related to plant activities.

Other Current Assets include non-trade receivables, reimbursement receivables, inventory related to the supply agreements, short-term deposits, accrued interest receivables and other miscellaneous accounts consistent with historical public reporting.

Property, Plant & Equipment (“PP&E”) is stated at cost net of accumulated depreciation and reduced as a result of expected and received reimbursements. The forecast reflects the Company’s capital expenditure assumptions during the Projection Period including planned asset sales.

Intangibles & Goodwill represent goodwill from acquisitions and intangible assets such as patents, licenses, and developed technology. The Financial Projections do not make any assumptions on future impairment.

Other Long-Term Assets include other long-term investments, deferred tax assets, long-term receivables, investment tax credit receivable, right-of-use assets, long-term advances to suppliers and other miscellaneous balance sheet accounts. There are no material changes anticipated to these assets in the Forecast Period.

³	Equity reported on the projected balance sheet should not be used to imply an enterprise value of the Company.

Liabilities:

Payables and Accrued Expenses include trade accounts payable, accrued employee wages & benefits, and other accrued operating expenses. Trade payable and certain accrued expense balances are projected on a days-outstanding calculation and are projected to improve over the Projection Period.

Accrued Contract Liabilities reflect deferred revenue associated with customer prepayments for products or services to be delivered in future periods and are forecasted to remain constant over the Forecast Period.

Other Current Liabilities include prepaid expenses, short-term deposits, and supply agreement liabilities.

Debt includes the pro forma capital structure to be implemented on the Expected Emergence Date under the Plan. The Company anticipates a refinancing of the Senior Secured Notes in Q4 of fiscal year 2026. See Projected Cash Flow Statement Assumptions below.

Deferred Tax Liabilities reflect the result of temporary differences between the Company’s accounting and tax carrying values. Deferred tax liabilities are held constant over the Projection Period for illustrative purposes and are not reflective of fresh-start accounting adjustments and tax impacts on the restructuring.

Finance Lease Liabilities represent the present value of future lease payments for equipment or facilities under non-cancellable lease agreements where the Company retains substantially all risks and rewards of ownership.

Other Long-Term Liabilities include non-current lease liabilities, non-current supply agreement liabilities, deposits, and other miscellaneous non-current liabilities.

Equity:

Total Equity represents the net book value of shareholders’ equity. The net book value varies materially from the fair market value of equity.

Balance sheet projections have been prepared prior to the completion of the Company’s annual financial reporting for the year ended June 2025 and accordingly do not take account of any judgements or estimates for that period that may impact the carrying value of certain balance sheet accounts presented in the forecast.

Non-GAAP Projected Cash Flow Statement Assumptions:

Cash Used in Operating Activities

Adjustments to Reconcile to Net Cash Used for Operating represents the addback for non-cash transactions, including depreciation & amortization, gain on debt extinguishment, stock-based compensation, deferred tax expenses or benefits, and miscellaneous other adjustments.

Changes in Operating Assets and Liabilities primarily consists of changes in inventory, accounts payable, accounts receivable, and accrued expenses. Fiscal year 2026 assumes a decrease in working capital driven by a reduction in inventories and improvement in payable and receivable terms. The decrease in working capital in fiscal year 2026 is primarily driven by improved inventory efficiency as the Company completes its plant consolidation and transitions to a next-generation product platform, alongside broader working capital optimization initiatives led by management. Other changes include an increase in tax related items in fiscal year 2028 and fiscal year 2029 driven by the Liability Management exercise and increased income taxes as the Company improves profitability.

Cash Used in Investing Activities

Purchases of PP&E are based on the Company’s capital expenditures plan and include facility costs to complete the Siler City Facility and tooling costs related to the Siler City Facility and Mohawk Valley Fab completion. Maintenance capital expenditures are also included and grow according to the production plan and asset base.

Reimbursement and Incentives include refundable federal investment tax credits through Section 48D Advanced Manufacturing Investment Credit in fiscal year 2026 – fiscal year 2029 and NY & NC state incentives in fiscal year 2026 only.

Proceeds from Asset Sales include planned divestitures of a variety of non-core operating equipment, site sales and mark-to-market equity interest.

Cash Used in Financing Activities

This section is representative of the pro-forma capital structure. Fiscal year 2026 financing activities include a $175M paydown to Apollo after receipt of 48D incentives. The Company also forecasts a refinancing of the Senior Secured Notes in Q4 of fiscal year 2026 with a new first lien term loan to reduce cash interest expense. No financing assumptions have been made for fiscal year 2027 – fiscal year 2029.

Purely for illustrative purposes, this forecast does not include CHIPS Act grant funding. CHIPS Act discussions between the Company and federal stakeholders are ongoing, and the exclusion of CHIPS Act grant funding from this forecast does not indicate a Company perspective on the likelihood or quantum of any CHIPS Act grant funding.

Valuation Analysis

Valuation Analysis

The valuation information contained in the following analysis (the “Valuation Analysis”) is presented solely for the purpose of providing “adequate information” under section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code¹ to enable Holders of Claims in Voting Classes to make an informed judgment about the Plan. Other than with respect to the foregoing, this information was not prepared for the purpose of providing the basis for an investment decision by any Holder or any other Entity with respect to any transaction offered pursuant to the Plan or otherwise described therein (including the contemplated issuance of any New Common Stock or other Interests) and should not be used or relied upon for any other purpose (including the purchase or sale of Claims against or Interests in the Debtors). The estimates described herein are subject to various economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies that are difficult to predict, and should also be considered in conjunction with those additional contingencies and risk factors described in the Disclosure Statement (including the Financial Projections attached thereto).

This Valuation Analysis does not purport to be or constitute (a) a recommendation to any Holder of a Claim against or an Interest in a Debtor as to how to vote on, or otherwise act with respect to, the Plan, (b) an opinion as to the fairness from a financial point of view of the consideration to be received under, or of the terms and provisions of, the Plan or of any transaction contemplated thereby or otherwise described therein, including the contemplated issuance of any New Common Stock or any other Interests, (c) an appraisal of the Assets of the (Reorganized) Debtors, or (d) a prediction or guarantee of the actual market value that may be realized through a sale or liquidation of the (Reorganized) Debtors or through the sale of any securities to be issued pursuant to the Plan or of the prices at which any such securities may trade after giving effect to the transactions contemplated thereby.

Solely for the purposes of the Plan and the Disclosure Statement, Perella Weinberg Partners, LP (“PWP”), as financial advisor to the Debtors, has estimated a range of the total enterprise value (“Enterprise Value”) and implied equity value (“Equity Value”) of the Reorganized Debtors on a going concern basis and pro forma for the transactions contemplated by the Plan. PWP is acting as financial advisor to the Debtors and will not be responsible for and will not provide any tax, accounting, actuarial, legal, or other specialist advice.

The value of an operating business is subject to numerous uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult to predict and will fluctuate with changes in factors affecting the financial condition and prospects of such a business. As a result, the estimate of the range of the Enterprise Value of the Reorganized Debtors set forth herein is not necessarily indicative of actual outcomes, which may be significantly more or less favorable than those set forth herein. Because such estimates are inherently subject to uncertainties, neither the Debtors, PWP, nor any other person

Capitalized terms used but not immediately or otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them elsewhere herein, in the Joint Prepackaged Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Wolfspeed, Inc. and its Debtor Affiliate, or the Disclosure Statement for Joint Prepackaged Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Wolfspeed, Inc. and its Debtor Affiliate (including all appendices, exhibits, schedules, and supplements thereto, and as altered, amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance therewith, the “Plan” or the “Disclosure Statement,” respectively). The rules of interpretation set forth in Article I.B of the Plan shall apply hereto.

assumes responsibility for their accuracy. In addition, the valuation of newly issued securities is subject to additional uncertainties and contingencies, all of which are difficult to predict. Actual market prices of such securities at issuance will depend upon, among other things, funded debt, prevailing interest rates, conditions in the financial and commodity markets, the anticipated initial securities holdings of prepetition creditors (some of whom may prefer to liquidate their investment rather than hold it on a long-term basis), the potentially dilutive impact of certain events or securities (including, but not limited to, the conversion of the New 2L Convertible Notes, the conversion of the New Renesas 2L Takeback Convertible Notes, the issuance of the Incentive Plans, the exercise of the Renesas Warrants, and the distribution of the Contingent Additional Consideration (if applicable)), and other factors which generally influence the prices of securities. This Valuation Analysis is based on information as of June 12, 2025. This Valuation Analysis is also based on several assumptions, including a successful reorganization of the Debtors’ business in a timely manner, the achievement of the Financial Projections, Consummation of the Plan and the transactions contemplated thereby, continuity of a qualified management team, and capital market conditions consistent with those that exist as of June 12, 2025. Neither PWP nor the Debtors have any obligation to update, revise, or reaffirm this Valuation Analysis and do not intend to do so.

In preparing the estimates presented below, in addition to publicly available information, PWP assumed and relied upon the accuracy, completeness, and fairness of financial and other information contained in the business plan and other projections furnished by the Debtors’ management (including the Financial Projections). PWP did not independently audit or verify such projections, and no independent valuations or appraisals of estimates of the Debtors were sought or obtained in connection herewith. PWP assumed that such projections were reasonably prepared in good faith and on a basis reflecting the Debtors’ most accurate currently available estimates and judgments as to the future operating and financial performance of the (Reorganized) Debtors. The estimated Enterprise Value and Equity Value ranges assume the actual performance of the (Reorganized) Debtors will correspond to the projections relied on in all material respects. Business performance at levels below or above those set forth in such projections may have a materially negative or positive impact, respectively, on Enterprise Value and Equity Value. In estimating Enterprise Value, PWP (a) reviewed certain historical financial information of the Debtors for recent years and interim periods, (b) reviewed certain internal financial and operating data of the Debtors, including the Financial Projections, (c) discussed the Debtors’ operations and future prospects with the Debtors’ senior management team, (d) reviewed certain publicly available financial data for, and considered the market value of, public companies that PWP deemed generally relevant in analyzing the value of the Reorganized Debtors, (e) considered certain economic and industry information relevant to the operating businesses, and (f) conducted such other studies, analyses, inquiries, and investigations as it deemed appropriate. The estimated ranges of Enterprise Value and Equity Value do not constitute a recommendation to any holder of Allowed Claims or Interests as to how such person should vote or otherwise act with respect to the Plan. PWP has not been asked to and does not express any view as to what the trading value of the Reorganized Debtors’ securities would be on issuance or at any time.

Estimates of the Enterprise Value and Equity Value do not purport to be appraisals or necessarily reflect the values that may be realized if assets are sold as a going concern, in liquidation, or otherwise. In the case of the Reorganized Debtors, the estimates of the Enterprise Value prepared by PWP represent the hypothetical enterprise value of the Reorganized Debtors.

Such estimates were developed solely for purposes of the analysis of implied relative recoveries to creditors under the Plan. Such estimates reflect computations of the range of the estimated Enterprise Value of the Reorganized Debtors through the application of various valuation techniques and do not purport to reflect or constitute appraisals, liquidation values, or estimates of the actual market value that may be realized through the sale of any securities to be issued pursuant to the Plan, which may be significantly different than the amounts set forth herein.

In performing its analysis, PWP applied the following valuation methodologies as applicable to the Debtors’ operations: (a) a discounted cash flow analysis, (b) a selected publicly traded companies analysis, and (c) a selected precedent transactions analysis, each as further described below. PWP believes that its analysis and views must be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of its analysis and factors could create a misleading or incomplete view of the processes underlying the preparation of this Valuation Analysis.

As a result of the analysis described herein and for purposes of the Plan, PWP estimated the Enterprise Value of the Reorganized Debtors to be approximately $2,350 million to approximately $2,850 million with a mathematical midpoint estimate of approximately $2,600 million, as of the assumed Effective Date. Based on estimated pro forma net debt of approximately $1,500 million as of the Effective Date, the estimated Enterprise Value of the Reorganized Debtors results in an implied Equity Value of approximately $850 million to approximately $1,350 million with a mathematical midpoint estimate of approximately $1,100 million. PWP assumed no changes that would materially affect estimated value occur before the assumed Effective Date.

Methodologies

In preparing this Valuation Analysis, PWP considered a variety of factors and performed a variety of financial analyses including (a) a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) analysis, (b) a selected publicly traded companies analysis, and (c) a selected precedent transactions analysis, each as further described below.

DCF Analysis. The DCF analysis is an enterprise valuation methodology that estimates the value of an asset or business by calculating the present value of expected future cash flows to be generated by that asset or business plus a present value of the estimated terminal value of that asset or business. PWPs’ DCF analysis used estimated debt-free, after-tax free cash flows through the (Reorganized) Debtors’ fiscal year ended June 30, 2029. These cash flows were then discounted at a range of estimated weighted average costs of capital (“Discount Rate”) for the Reorganized Debtors. The Discount Rate reflects the estimated blended rate of return that would be expected by debt and equity investors to invest in the Reorganized Debtors’ businesses based on a target capital structure. The enterprise value was determined by calculating the present value of the (Reorganized) Debtors’ unlevered after-tax free cash flows plus an estimate for the value of the (Reorganized) Debtors beyond the period covered by the projections reviewed known as the terminal value.

Selected Publicly Traded Companies Analysis. The selected publicly traded companies analysis is based on the enterprise values of selected publicly traded companies that have operating and financial characteristics comparable in certain respects to the (Reorganized) Debtors. For example, such characteristics may include similar industry, size and scale of

operations, product mix, operating margins, growth rates, and geographical exposure. Under this methodology, certain financial multiples that measure financial performance and value are calculated for each selected company and then applied to the (Reorganized) Debtors’ financials to imply an enterprise value for the Reorganized Debtors. PWP used, among other measures, enterprise value (defined as market value of equity, plus book value of debt and book value of preferred stock and minority interests, less cash, subject to adjustments for underfunded obligations and other items where appropriate) for each selected company as a multiple of such company’s publicly available consensus projected Revenue for calendar years 2025 and 2026. Although the selected companies were used for comparison purposes, no selected publicly traded company is either identical or directly comparable to the (Reorganized) Debtors or their businesses. Accordingly, PWP’s comparison of selected publicly traded companies to the (Reorganized) Debtors and their businesses, and its analysis of the results of such comparisons, was not purely mathematical, but instead involved considerations and judgments concerning differences in operating and financial characteristics and other factors that could affect the relative values of the selected publicly traded companies and the (Reorganized) Debtors. The selection of appropriate companies for this analysis is a matter of judgment and subject to limitations due to sample size and the public availability of meaningful market-based information.

Selected Precedent Transactions Analysis. The selected transactions analysis is based on the implied enterprise values of companies and assets involved in publicly disclosed merger and acquisition transactions for which the targets had operating and financial characteristics comparable in certain respects to the (Reorganized) Debtors. Under this methodology, the enterprise value of each such target is determined by an analysis of the consideration paid and the net debt assumed in the merger or acquisition transaction. The enterprise value is then compared to a selected financial metric, in this case, Revenue for the last twelve-month period (“LTM”), to determine an enterprise value multiple. In this analysis, the multiples of enterprise value relative to LTM Revenue were utilized to determine a range of implied enterprise value for the Reorganized Debtors.

The preparation of a valuation analysis is a complex analytical process involving various quantitative and qualitative determinations as to the most appropriate analyses and factors to consider, and the application of those analyses and factors to the particular circumstances of the (Reorganized) Debtors. As such, the process involved in preparing a valuation is not readily summarized. Similarly, PWP’s valuation analysis must therefore be considered as a whole, and selecting portions of its analysis and factors could create a misleading or incomplete view of the processes underlying the preparation of this Valuation Analysis. Reliance on only one of the methodologies used, or portions of the analysis performed, could create a misleading or incomplete conclusion. This summary does not purport to be a complete description of the analyses performed and factors considered by PWP.
