This Amendment No. 1 to the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement (this “Amendment”), dated as of February 10, 2017, is made by and between GigPeak, Inc., a Delaware corporation formerly known as GigOptix, Inc.

WHEREAS, the Company intends to enter into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), among the Company, Integrated Device Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”) and Glider Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Purchaser”), pursuant to which Parent intends to acquire all of the outstanding capital stock of the Company pursuant to the consummation by Purchaser of a tender offer for all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company (the “Offer”), followed by a second-step merger of Purchaser with and into the Company, by which the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”), the Board of Directors of the Company having approved the Merger Agreement, the Merger and the transactions contemplated thereby;

WHEREAS, in connection with the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, the Company desires to amend the Rights Agreement in certain respects as set forth herein, including to except from the operation of the Rights Agreement the Merger Agreement, the Offer, the Merger and any and all other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and to provide that the Rights Agreement shall expire immediately prior to the Acceptance Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement); and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 27 of the Rights Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Company has determined that an amendment to the Rights Agreement as set forth herein is desirable and does not materially adversely affect the interest of the holders of Rights Certificates, and the Company and the Rights Agent now desire to evidence such amendment in writing.

Except as otherwise provided herein, the Rights may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time commencing with the Distribution Date upon surrender of the Rights Certificate, with the form of election to purchase on the reverse side thereof duly executed (with signatures duly guaranteed), to the Rights Agent at the principal office of the Rights Agent, together with payment of the Purchase Price for each Right exercised, subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided, at or prior to the Close of Business on the earlier of (i) the earlier of December 16, 2017 or immediately prior to the Acceptance Time (the “Final Expiration Date”), (ii) the date on which the Rights are redeemed as provided in Section 23 hereof (the “Redemption Date”), or (iii) the time at which such Rights are exchanged as provided in Section 24 hereof (such earlier date being herein referred to as the “Expiration Date”).”
