Related to Vesting and Exercisability of Option Following Termination of Employment

• Compensation Following Termination of Employment In the event that Executive's employment hereunder is terminated, Executive shall be entitled to the following compensation and benefits upon such termination:

• Termination of Employment and Options Vested Options shall terminate, to the extent not previously exercised, upon the occurrence of the first of the following events:

• Termination of Employment Due to Retirement In the event of the Retirement of the Participant after nine months of the Performance Cycle have elapsed, the Participant’s Performance Units shall be settled based on the performance for the Performance Cycle and payable on a pro-rata basis as determined and certified by the Board after the close of the Performance Cycle as described below. Subject to the negative discretion of the Board, the Participant will be entitled to receive a payment equal to the product of (i) the pro-rata vesting percentage equal to the days of Participant’s Employment during the Performance Cycle divided by the total days in the Performance Cycle and (ii) the Payout Value. Such payment shall be made as soon as administratively feasible following the Board’s determination under Paragraph 2 and, in all cases, the payment shall be made within the first calendar year following the end of the Performance Cycle. If, in accordance with the Board’s determination under Paragraph 2, the Payout Value is zero, the Participant shall immediately forfeit any and all rights to the Performance Units. Upon the vesting and/or forfeiture of the Performance Units pursuant to this Paragraph 6 and the making of the related cash payment, if any, the rights of the Participant and the obligations of the Company under this Award Agreement shall be satisfied in full. The death of the Participant following Retirement but prior to the close of the Performance Cycle shall have no effect on this Paragraph 6.

• Termination of Employment Following a Change in Control Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.3 hereof to the contrary, if the Employee’s employment by the Company is terminated by the Company in accordance with the terms of Section 4 of the Termination Agreement and the Employee is entitled to benefits provided in Section 5 of the Termination Agreement, the Company shall pay to the Employee, in a lump sum in cash within 30 days after the Date of Termination, the aggregate of the Employee’s Base Salary (as in effect on the Date of Termination) through the Date of Termination, if not theretofore paid, and, in the case of compensation previously deferred by the Employee, all amounts of such compensation previously deferred shall be paid in accordance with the plan documents governing such deferral. Except with respect to the obligations set for forth in the Termination Agreement, notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, all other obligations of the Company and rights of the Employee hereunder shall terminate effective as of the Date of Termination.

• Rights Upon Termination of Employment The terms which regulate the treatment of the International Participant's Restricted Stock Units upon termination of employment are set out in the Plan and in the Award Documents. In summary, upon the International Participant's termination of employment for any reason other than death, Disability or Retirement, any unvested Restricted Stock Units shall be forfeited and cancelled on the date of such termination of employment.

• Benefits Upon Termination of Employment If the Executive is entitled to benefits pursuant to this Section 2, the Company agrees to pay or provide to the Executive as severance payment, the following:

• Payments Upon Termination of Employment (a) If Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by reason of:

• Termination of Employment Due to Death or Disability 4.1. In the event of your termination of employment due to death or permanent disability (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”)) during the Initial Term or the Additional Term, on the date of such termination each outstanding and unvested equity award held by you that, pursuant to its terms, vests solely based upon providing continued service to Skyworks, including, without limitation, stock options, restricted stock awards (including restricted stock unit awards), and performance-based equity awards that are earned but unissued, shall automatically become vested, exercisable, and issuable, and any forfeiture restrictions thereon shall immediately lapse, as applicable, in each case, with respect to one-hundred percent (100%) of that number of then-unvested shares underlying such equity award.

• Rights in Event of Termination of Employment Absent Change in Control (a) In the event that Executive's employment is involuntarily terminated by HMS without Cause and no Change in Control shall have occurred as of the date of such termination, upon execution of a mutual release, HMS will provide Executive with the following pay and benefits: (i) a payment in an amount equal to the greater of: that portion of the Executive’s Agreed Compensation for the then existing Employment Period that has not been paid to Executive as of the date his employment terminates, or 1.0 times the Executive’s Agreed Compensation. Such amount shall be payable in twelve (12) equal monthly installments; and (ii) subject to plan terms, Executive’s continued participation in HMS's employee benefit plans for twelve (12) months or until Executive secures substantially similar benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur. If Executive is no longer eligible to participate in an employee benefit plan because he is no longer an employee, HMS will pay Executive the amount of money that it would have cost HMS to provide the benefits to Executive. However, in the payments described herein, when added to all other amounts or benefits provided to or on behalf of the Executive in connection with his termination of employment, would result in the imposition of an excise tax under Code Section 4999, such payments shall be retroactively (if necessary) reduced to the extent necessary to avoid such imposition. Upon written notice to Executive, together with calculations of HMS's independent auditors, Executive shall remit to HMS the amount of the reduction plus such interest as may be necessary to avoid the imposition of such excise tax. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any portion of the amount herein payable to the Executive is determined to be non-deductible pursuant to the regulations promulgated under Section 280G of the Code, then HMS shall be required only to pay to Executive the amount determined to be deductible under Section 280G.

• Effect of Termination of Employment or Death If the Employee goes on leave of absence for a period of greater than twelve months (except a leave of absence approved by the Board of Directors or the Committee) or ceases to be an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary for any reason except death, the portion of the SAR which is unexercisable on the date on which the Employee ceased to be an Employee or has been on a leave of absence for over twelve months (except a leave of absence approved by the Board or Committee) shall expire on such date and any unexercised portion of the SARs which was otherwise exercisable on such date shall expire at the earlier of (i) the expiration of this SAR in accordance with the term for which the SAR was granted, or (ii) three months (one year in the case of termination by reason of Disability of the Employee under the terms of the Plan) from such date, except in the case of an Employee who is an "Approved Retiree" as defined below. If Employee is an Approved Retiree, then the SAR shall expire at the sooner to occur of (i) the expiration of such SAR in accordance with its original term, (ii) the expiration of five years from the date of retirement, or (iii) with respect to SARs granted less than one year before the date the Approved Retiree retires, such retirement date, except not with respect that portion of the SARs equal to the number of such shares multiplied by the ratio of (a) the number of days between the Grant Date and the retirement date inclusive, over (b) the number of days on and after the Grant Date and before the first anniversary of the Grant Date. In the event of the death of Employee without Approved Retiree status during the three month period following termination of employment or a leave of absence over twelve months (except a leave of absence approved by the Board or Committee), the SAR shall be exercisable by the Employee's personal representative, heirs or legatees to the same extent and during the same period that the Employee could have exercised the SAR if the Employee had not died. In the event of the death of Employee while an employee or while an Approved Retiree, the SAR (if the waiting period has elapsed) shall be exercisable in its entirety by the Employee's personal representatives, heirs or legatees at any time prior to the expiration of one year from the date of the death of the Employee, but in no event after the term for which the SAR was granted. For purposes of this Agreement, an "Approved Retiree" is any SAR holder who (i) terminates employment by reason of a Disability, or (ii) (A) retires from employment with the Company with the specific approval of the Committee on or after such date on which the SAR holder has attained age 55 and completed 10 Years of Service, and (B) has entered into and has not breached an agreement to refrain from Engaging in Competition in form and substance satisfactory to the Committee; and if the Committee subsequently determines, in its sole discretion, that an Approved Retiree has violated the provisions of the Agreement to refrain from Engaging in Competition, or has engaged in willful acts or omissions or acts or omissions of gross negligence that are or potentially are injurious to the Company's operations, financial condition or business reputation, such Approved Retiree shall have ninety (90) days from the date of such finding within which to exercise any SARs or portions thereof which are exercisable on such date, and any SARs or portions thereof which are not exercised within such ninety (90) day period shall expire and any SARs or portion thereof which are not exercisable on such date shall be cancelled on such date.
