The Offered Securities so to be delivered or evidence of their issuance will be made available for checking at the above office of Xxxxx Xxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP at least 24 hours prior to the Closing Date.

(b) Each Purchaser severally acknowledges that the Offered Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Each Purchaser severally represents and agrees that it has offered and sold the Offered Securities, and will offer and sell the Offered Securities only in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act. Accordingly, such Purchaser, its affiliates and all persons acting on its or their behalf have complied and will comply with the offering restrictions requirements of Rule 144A under the Securities Act.

(c) Each Purchaser severally agrees that it and each of its affiliates has not entered and will not enter into any contractual arrangement with respect to the distribution of the Offered Securities except for any such arrangements with the other Purchasers or affiliates of the other Purchasers or with the prior written consent of the Company.

(d) Each Purchaser severally agrees that it and each of its affiliates will not offer or sell the Offered Securities by means of any form of General Solicitation, other than a permitted communication listed on Schedule B. Each Purchaser severally agrees, with respect to the initial resales made by such Purchaser in reliance on Rule 144A of any of the Offered Securities, to deliver either with the confirmation of such resale or otherwise prior to settlement of such resale a notice to the effect that the resale of such Offered Securities has been made in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144A thereunder.

5. Certain Agreements of the Company. The Company agrees with the several Purchasers that:

(a) Amendments and Supplements to Offering Memoranda. The Company will promptly advise the Representative of any proposal to amend or supplement the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or Final Offering Memorandum and will not effect any such amendment or supplement to which the Representative reasonably objects; provided that the Company may effect any such amendment or supplement constituting a filing under the Exchange Act that, in the opinion of counsel, is required by law. If, at any time prior to the completion of the initial resale of the Offered Securities by the Purchasers, there occurs an event or development as a result of which any document included in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or Final Offering Memorandum, the General Disclosure Package or any Supplemental Marketing Material, if republished immediately following such event or development, included or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the Company promptly will notify the Representative of such event and promptly will prepare and furnish, at its own expense, to the Purchasers and to any dealers at the request of the Representative, an amendment or supplement which will correct such statement or omission. Neither the Representative’s consent to, nor the Purchasers’ delivery to offerees or investors of, any such amendment or supplement shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions set forth in Section 7.

(b) Furnishing of Offering Memoranda. The Company will furnish to the Representative copies of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, each other document comprising a part of the General Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Memorandum, all amendments and supplements to such documents and each item of Supplemental Marketing Material, in each case as soon as available and in such quantities as the Representative reasonably requests. At any time when the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company will promptly furnish or cause to be furnished, upon request of holders and prospective purchasers of the Offered Securities, to such holders and purchasers, copies of the information required to be delivered to holders and prospective purchasers of the Offered Securities pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act (or any successor provision thereto) in order to permit compliance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act in connection with resales by such holders of the Offered Securities. The Company will pay the expenses of printing and distributing to the holders or prospective purchasers of the Offered Securities all such documents.

(c) General Solicitations. The Company will furnish to the Representative any proposed General Solicitation to be made by the Company or on its behalf before its use, and will not make or use any proposed General Solicitation without the Representative’s prior written consent.

(d) Blue Sky Qualifications. The Company will arrange for the qualification of the Offered Securities for sale and the determination of their eligibility for investment

under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representative designates and will continue such qualifications in effect so long as required for the initial resale of the Offered Securities by the Purchasers; provided, that, in connection therewith, the Company will not be required to file a general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified, or subject itself to taxation for doing business in any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise so subject.

(e) Reporting Requirements. For so long as the Offered Securities remain outstanding, the Company will furnish, upon request, to the Representative and to each of the other Purchasers, as soon as practicable after the end of each fiscal year, a copy of its annual report to stockholders for such year; and the Company will furnish, upon request, to the Representative (i) as soon as available, a copy of each report and any definitive proxy statement of the Company filed with the Commission under the Exchange Act or mailed to stockholders, and (ii) from time to time, such other information concerning the Company as the Representative may reasonably request; provided, that, if the Representative shall request nonpublic confidential information, the Company shall only be required to provide the Representative with such information if the Representative shall enter into a customary confidentiality agreement with the Company with respect thereto. However, so long as the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of either Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act and is timely filing reports with the Commission on its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system, it is not required to furnish such reports or statements to the Representative or the Purchasers.

(f) Transfer Restrictions. At any time when any Offered Securities are deemed “restricted securities” under Rule 144, the Company will inform the Representative, each of the other Purchasers and, upon request, any holder of Offered Securities if any event has occurred that would result in additional interest being payable on such Offered Securities under the terms of the Indenture as a result of such securities not being “freely tradable” (as defined in the Indenture).

(g) No Resales by Affiliates. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its “controlled” affiliates (as defined in Rule 144) to, resell any of the Offered Securities that have been reacquired by any of them, except for Offered Securities purchased by the Company or any such affiliates and resold in a transaction registered under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in a transaction that results in such Offered Securities no longer being deemed “restricted securities” under Rule 144. For the avoidance of doubt, these restrictions shall not apply with respect to the purchase by the Affiliated Purchaser of the Affiliate Securities from the Company.

(h) Investment Company. During the period of one year after the Closing Date, the Company will not be or become, an open-end investment company, unit investment trust or face-amount certificate company that is or is required to be registered under Section 8 of the Investment Company Act.

(i) Payment of Expenses. The Company will pay all expenses incident to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and the Indenture, including but not limited to (i) the fees and expenses of the Trustee and its professional advisers; (ii) all expenses in connection with the execution, issue, authentication, packaging and initial delivery of the Offered Securities, the preparation and printing of this Agreement, the Offered Securities, the Indenture, the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, any other documents comprising any part of the General Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Memorandum, all amendments and supplements thereto, each item of Supplemental Marketing Material and any other document relating to the issuance, offer, sale and delivery of the Offered Securities; (iii) the cost of any advertising approved in advance by the Company in connection with the issue of the Offered Securities; (iv) any expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel to the Purchasers) incurred in connection with qualification of the Offered Securities for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions in the United States and Canada as the Representative designates and the preparation and printing of memoranda relating thereto; provided that the amount payable by the Company with respect to fees and disbursements of counsel for the Purchasers pursuant to this clause (iv) shall not exceed $10,000); (v) any fees charged by investment rating agencies for the rating of the Securities, (vi) expenses incurred in distributing the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, any other documents comprising any part of the General Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Memorandum (including any amendments and supplements thereto) and any Supplemental Marketing Material to the Purchasers; (vii) any stamp or transfer taxes in connection with the original sale and issuance of the Offered Securities and (viii) the cost of listing the Conversion Shares in accordance with the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC. The Company will also pay or reimburse the Purchasers (to the extent incurred by them) for costs and expenses of the Purchasers and the Company’s officers and employees and any other expenses of the Purchasers and the Company relating to investor presentations or any “road show” in connection with the offering and sale of the Offered Securities including, without limitation, any travel expenses of the Company’s officers and employees and any other expenses of the Company. The Company shall also pay all expenses incurred in connection with the offer and sale of the Affiliate Securities (including pursuant to any registration rights granted to the Affiliated Purchaser). It is understood, however, that, except as provided in this Agreement, the Purchasers shall pay all of their own costs and expenses, including the fees and disbursements of their counsel, transfer taxes on resale of any of the Offered Securities by them and any advertising expenses in connection with any offers they may make.

(j) Use of Proceeds. The Company will use the net proceeds received in connection with this offering in the manner described in the “Use of Proceeds” section of the General Disclosure Package and, except as disclosed in the General Disclosure Package, the Company does not intend to use any of the proceeds from the sale of the Offered Securities hereunder to repay any outstanding debt owed to any affiliate of any Purchaser.

(k) Absence of Manipulation. In connection with the offering, until the Representative shall have notified the Company and the other Purchasers of the

completion of the resale of the Offered Securities, which notice shall be promptly provided upon such completion, neither the Company nor any of its controlled affiliates will, either alone or with one or more other persons, bid for or purchase for any account in which it or any of its affiliates has a beneficial interest any Offered Securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any Offered Securities; and neither it nor any of its affiliates will make bids or purchases for the purpose of creating actual, or apparent, active trading in, or of raising the price of, the Offered Securities.

(l) Restriction on Sale of Securities. For the period specified below (the “Lock-Up Period”), the Company will not, directly or indirectly, take any of the following actions with respect to shares of its Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock (“Lock-Up Securities”): (i) offer, sell, issue, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of Lock-Up Securities; (ii) offer, sell, issue, contract to sell, contract to purchase or grant any option, right or warrant to purchase Lock-Up Securities; (iii) enter into any swap, hedge or any other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, the economic consequences of ownership of Lock-Up Securities; (iv) establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position in Lock-Up Securities within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act or (v) file with the Commission a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to Lock-Up Securities, or publicly disclose the intention to take any such action, without the prior written consent of the Representative, except (A) the issuance by the Company of (x) the Offered Securities to be sold hereunder or any Underlying Shares issued upon conversion thereof or (y) the Affiliate Securities or any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof; (B) the issuance by the Company of Lock-Up Securities upon the exercise of an option or warrant, the vesting or settlement of any restricted stock units or other equity compensation awards or the conversion of a security outstanding on the date hereof; (C) the grant of options, restricted stock units or other equity compensation awards, including any time-based or performance-based awards, or the issuance of Lock-Up Securities by the Company to employees, officers, directors, advisors or consultants of the Company in each case pursuant to equity incentive, stock option, inducement award and employee stock purchase plans described in the General Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum, and the issuance by the Company of any Lock-Up Securities upon the exercise, vesting or settlement of such equity compensation awards; or (D) the filing of any registration statement on (x) Form S-8 in respect of any equity compensation plans or arrangements maintained by the Company, (y) as required by the Stockholder’s Agreement between the Company and SunPower Corporation (“SunPower”) entered into in connection with that certain asset purchase agreement dated June 12, 2018 between the Company and SunPower or (z) as required by any agreement with respect to resale registration rights granted to the Affiliated Purchaser with respect to the Affiliate Securities or the Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof. The Company will not at any time directly or indirectly, take any action referred to in clauses (i) through (v) above with respect to any securities under circumstances where such offer, sale, pledge, contract or disposition would cause the exemption afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act to cease to be applicable to the offer and sale of the Offered Securities by the Company to the several Purchasers. The initial Lock-

Up Period will commence on the date hereof and continue for 90 days after the date hereof or such earlier date that the Representative consents to in writing.

6. Free Writing Communications. (a) Issuer Free Writing Communications. The Company represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Representative, and each Purchaser represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Company and the Representative, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Offered Securities or the Affiliate Securities that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Communication.

(b) Term Sheets. The Company consents to the use by any Purchaser of a Free Writing Communication that (i) contains only (A) information describing the preliminary terms of the Offered Securities or their offering or (B) information that describes the final terms of the Offered Securities or their offering (and the terms of the Affiliate Securities and the concurrent private placement) and that is included in the Final Offering Memorandum or (ii) does not contain any material information about the Company or its securities that was provided by or on behalf of the Company, it being understood and agreed that the Company shall not be responsible to any Purchaser for liability arising from any inaccuracy in such Free Writing Communications referred to in clause (i) or (ii) as compared with the information in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Final Offering Memorandum or the General Disclosure Package.

7. Conditions of the Obligations of the Purchasers. The obligations of the several Purchasers to purchase and pay for the Offered Securities on the Closing Date, will be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company herein (as though made on the Closing Date), to the accuracy of the statements of Company officers made pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions precedent:

(a) Accountants’ Comfort Letters.

(b) No Material Adverse Change. Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, there shall not have occurred (i) any change, or any development or event involving a prospective change, in the condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations, business, properties or prospects of the Company which, in the judgment of the Representative, is material and adverse and makes it impractical or inadvisable to market the Offered Securities; (ii) any suspension or material limitation of trading in securities generally on The New York Stock Exchange or The Nasdaq Global Market, or

any setting of minimum or maximum prices for trading on such exchange; (iii) any suspension of trading of any securities of the Company on any exchange or in the over-the-counter market; or (iv) any major disruption of settlements of securities, payment, or clearance services in the United States or any other country where such securities are listed.

(c) Lock-Up Agreements. The “lock-up” agreements, each substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, between the Representative and each executive officer (within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act) and director of the Company and certain other stockholders of the Company relating to sales and certain other dispositions of shares of Common Stock or certain other securities, delivered to the Representative on or before the date hereof, shall be in full force and effect on the Closing Date.

(d) Opinions of Counsel for Company. The Representative shall have received on the Closing Date, an opinion of Xxxxxx & Xxxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxxx LLP, outside counsel for the Company, together with a negative assurance letter, each dated the Closing Date, in the form agreed upon as of the date hereof.

The Company will furnish the Representative with such conformed copies of such opinions, certificates, letters and documents as the Representative reasonably requests. The Representative

8. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) Indemnification of Purchasers. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser, its partners, members, directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates and each person, if any, who controls such Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, an “Indemnified Party”), against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, other Federal or state statutory law or regulation or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Final Offering Memorandum, in each case as amended or supplemented, any Issuer Free Writing Communication, any General Solicitation made by the Company (including, in each case, the Exchange Act Reports, as applicable), or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission of a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and will reimburse each Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating, preparing or defending against any loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto), whether threatened or commenced, and in connection with the enforcement of this provision with respect to any of the above as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Purchaser through the Representative specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Purchaser consists of the information described as such in subsection (b) below.

(b) Indemnification of Company. Each Purchaser will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and each of its officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, a “Purchaser Indemnified Party”), against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such Purchaser Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, other Federal or state statutory law or regulation or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Final Offering Memorandum, in each case as amended or supplemented, any Issuer Free Writing Communication, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission of a material fact necessary to make the

statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Purchaser through the Representative specifically for use therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Purchaser Indemnified Party in connection with investigating, preparing or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such Purchaser Indemnified Party is a party thereto), whether threatened or commenced, based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission as such expenses are incurred, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Purchaser consists of the following information in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Final Offering Memorandum furnished on behalf of each Purchaser: the information contained in the tenth and eleventh paragraphs under the caption “Plan of Distribution”; provided, however, that the Purchasers shall not be liable for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising out of or based upon the Company’s failure to perform its obligations under Section 5(a) of this Agreement.

(c) Actions against Parties; Notification. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under subsection (a) or (b) above, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under subsection (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (2) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or

related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for (i) the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Purchasers and all persons, if any, who control any Purchaser within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act or who are affiliates of any Purchaser within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act and (ii) the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for the Company, its directors, its officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either such Section, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. In the case of any such separate firm for the Purchasers and such control persons and affiliates of any Purchasers, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Representative. In the case of any such separate firm for the Company, and such directors, officers and control persons of the Company, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Company. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement (A) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action and (B) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of an indemnified party.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Purchasers on the other from the offering of the Offered Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Purchasers on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Purchasers on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total discounts and commissions received by the Purchasers. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Purchaser shall be required to

contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities purchased by it were resold exceeds the amount of any damages which such Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Purchasers’ obligations in this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations and not joint. The Company and the Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 8(d).

9. Default of Purchasers. If any Purchaser or Purchasers default in their obligations to purchase Offered Securities hereunder on the Closing Date and the aggregate principal amount of Offered Securities that such defaulting Purchaser or Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Offered Securities that the Purchasers are obligated to purchase on the Closing Date, the Representative may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the purchase of such Offered Securities by other persons, including any of the Purchasers, but if no such arrangements are made by the Closing Date, the non-defaulting Purchasers shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder, to purchase the Offered Securities that such defaulting Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase on the Closing Date. If any Purchaser or Purchasers so default and the aggregate principal amount of Offered Securities with respect to which such default or defaults occur exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Offered Securities that the Purchasers are obligated to purchase on the Closing Date and arrangements satisfactory to the Representative and the Company for the purchase of such Offered Securities by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Purchaser or the Company, except as provided in Section 10. As used in this Agreement, the term “Purchaser” includes any person substituted for a Purchaser under this Section. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Purchaser from liability for its default.

10. Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company or its officers and of the several Purchasers set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of any Purchaser, the Company or any of their respective representatives, officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered Securities. If the purchase of the Offered Securities by the Purchasers is not consummated for any reason other than solely because of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9 hereof, the Company will reimburse the Purchasers for all out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by them in connection with the offering of the Offered Securities, and the respective obligations of the Company and the Purchasers pursuant to Section 8 hereof shall remain in effect. In addition, if any Offered Securities have been purchased hereunder, the representations and warranties in Section 2 and all obligations under Section 5 shall also remain in effect.

11. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent to the Purchasers, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to the Representative c/o Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Eleven Madison Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10010-3629, Attention: IBCM-Legal, or, if sent to the Company, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to Enphase Energy, Inc., 1400 X. XxXxxxxx Xxxx., Xxxxxxxx, XX 00000, Attention: Xxxx Xxxxxxxxx, with a copy (which shall not constitute notice hereunder) to Xxxxxx & Xxxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxxx LLP, 250 Xxxx 00xx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000-0000, Attention: Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx and Xxxxxxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx; provided, however, that any notice to a Purchaser pursuant to Section 8 will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to such Purchaser.

Dear Sirs:

As an inducement to the Purchasers to execute the Purchase Agreement ( the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which an offering (the “Offering”) will be made of Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Securities”), of Enphase Energy, Inc., and any successor (by merger or otherwise) thereto (the “Company”), which are convertible into shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Common Stock”), the undersigned hereby agrees that during the period specified in the following paragraph (the “Lock-Up Period”), the undersigned will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any shares of Common Stock, enter into a transaction which would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Stock, whether any such aforementioned transaction is to be settled by delivery of the Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, or publicly disclose the intention to make any such offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any such transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement, without, in each case, the prior written consent of Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (“Credit Suisse”); provided, that if the undersigned is an executive officer of the Company, the foregoing restrictions shall no longer apply at such time as the undersigned ceases to be an executive officer of the Company. In addition, the undersigned agrees that, without the prior written consent of Credit Suisse, it will not, during the Lock-Up Period, make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Common Stock.

The Lock-Up Period will commence on the date of this Lock-Up Agreement and continue and include the date 90 days after the date of the Purchase Agreement, to which Credit Suisse is or is expected to become a party.

Deemed dispositions of any restricted stock unit awards granted by the Company to the undersigned upon the vesting or settlement of such awards in accordance with their terms shall not be subject to this Lock-Up Agreement, provided that Common Stock acquired upon the vesting or settlement of such restricted stock unit awards shall be subject to the restrictions imposed by this Lock-Up Agreement, giving effect to the exceptions provided herein.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the undersigned may (1) transfer shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock by gift or gifts, will or intestacy to a member or members of his or her immediate family, to a trust formed for the benefit of any such person, or to a partnership, the partners of which are exclusively the undersigned and/or a member or members of his or her immediate family and/or a charity, provided that (i) the transferee execute a copy of this Lock-Up Agreement, (ii) no filing by any party (donor, donee, transferor or transferee) under Section 16(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (other than a filing on Form 5 made after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period), and (iii) no such transfer may include a disposition for value; (2) sales pursuant to a trading plan meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act (any such plan, a “10b5-1 Plan”) in effect on the date hereof and disclosed to Credit Suisse; (3) enter into a 10b5-1 Plan during the Lock-Up Period if sales under such plan do

not occur until after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period and no disclosure regarding the entry into such plan is made during the Lock-Up Period; (4) exercise outstanding options or warrants to purchase Common Stock in accordance with their terms; provided (a) the shares received upon exercise of the options or warrants are subject to the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement and (b) any filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act shall clearly indicate in the footnotes thereto that (i) the filing relates to the exercise of options or warrants, as the case may be, (ii) no shares were sold by the reporting person (other than sales to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the exercise of an option or warrant pursuant to Company equity compensation plans or arrangements in effect on the date hereof and disclosed in the Company’s public filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission; provided that any public filing, report or announcement of such transfer shall disclose that the sale was for the purpose of covering such taxes payable) and (iii) the shares of Common Stock received upon exercise of the options or warrants are subject to a lock-up agreement with Credit Suisse; (5) transfer shares of Common Stock to the Company to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of restricted stock units pursuant to Company equity compensation plans or arrangements in effect on the date hereof and disclosed in the Company’s public filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission; provided that any public filing, report or announcement of such transfer shall disclose that the sale or transfer was for the purpose of covering such taxes payable; and (6) transfer shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock pursuant to a sale or an offer to all holders of the Common Stock to purchase outstanding Common Stock, whether pursuant to a merger, tender offer or otherwise, to a bona fide third party or group of bona fide third parties that is approved by the Board of Directors of the Company and involving a Change of Control (as defined below); provided that in the event the merger, tender offer or other transaction is not completed, the securities owned by the undersigned shall remain subject to the restrictions contained in this Lock-Up Agreement. For purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family” means the spouse, domestic partner, lineal descendants, father, mother, brother or sister of the transferor. For the purposes of clause (6) of this paragraph, “Change of Control” shall mean the consummation of any bona fide third-party tender offer, merger or other similar transaction or series of transactions, the result of which is that any “person” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), or group of persons, other than the Company, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act) of 50% of total voting power of the voting stock of the Company (or the surviving entity if other than the Company).

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company and its transfer agent and registrar are hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of shares of Common Stock if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Lock-Up Agreement.

This Lock-Up Agreement shall be binding on the undersigned and the successors, heirs, personal representatives and assigns of the undersigned. This Lock-Up Agreement shall lapse and become null and void if (a) the Offering shall not have occurred on or before September 1, 2018; (b) the Company notifies Credit Suisse in writing that it does not intend to proceed with the Offering or (c) if the Purchase Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated for any reason prior to payment for and delivery of the Securities to be sold thereunder. This Lock-Up Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

The information in this pricing term sheet supplements Enphase Energy, Inc.’s preliminary offering memorandum, dated August 14, 2018 (the “Preliminary Offering Memorandum”), and supersedes the information in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum to the extent inconsistent with the information in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum. In all other respects, this term sheet is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, including all other documents incorporated by reference therein. References to “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Enphase Energy, Inc. and not to its consolidated subsidiaries. Terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings as set forth in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum. All references to dollar amounts are references to U.S. dollars.

Issuer:		Enphase Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation.

Aggregate Principal Amount:		$60,000,000.

Denominations:		$1,000 and multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Ranking:		Senior unsecured.

Maturity:		August 1, 2023, unless earlier converted or repurchased.

Affiliate Private Placement:		An affiliate of ours, Thurman Xxxx Xxxxxxx, who is a director and a stockholder, has committed to purchase through a trust controlled by him (the “Affiliated Purchaser”) $5.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 in a concurrent private placement. We refer to our 4.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 purchased by the Affiliate Purchaser as the “Affiliate notes.” The Affiliate notes are expected to be sold at the same price, and constitute part of the same series, as the notes offered hereby. However, the Affiliate notes will initially be issued in certificated form, will not initially be fungible with the notes offered hereby and will be subject to different transfer restrictions than the notes offered hereby. In addition to the initial purchasers’ discount with respect to the notes, the Company will pay a fee to the initial purchasers in respect of the Affiliate notes. This offering is not conditioned upon the closing of the sale and purchase of the Affiliate notes by the Affiliate Purchaser.

No Redemption:		We may not redeem the notes prior to the maturity date and no “sinking fund” is provided for the notes, which means that we are not required to redeem or retire the notes periodically.

Fundamental Change:		If we undergo a “fundamental change” (as defined in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum under “Description of Notes—Fundamental Change Permits Holders to Require Us to Repurchase Notes”), subject to certain conditions, holders may require us to repurchase for cash all or part of their notes in principal amounts of $1,000 or a multiple thereof. The fundamental change repurchase price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. See “Description of Notes— Fundamental Change Permits Holders to Require Us to Repurchase Notes” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum.

Interest and Interest Payment Dates:		4.00% per year. Interest will accrue from August 17, 2018 and will be payable semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning on February 1, 2019. We will pay additional interest, if any, at our election as the sole remedy relating to the failure to comply with our reporting obligations as described under “Description of Notes—Events of Default” and under the circumstances described under Description of Notes—No Registration Rights; Additional Interest” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum.” For the avoidance of doubt, no additional interest shall accrue on the Affiliate notes as a result of any failure by us to comply with our obligations under “Description of Notes—No Registration Rights; Additional Interest” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum

Regular Record Dates:		January 15 and July 15 of each year, immediately preceding the February 1 or August 1 interest payment date, as the case may be.

Issue Price:		100% of principal, plus accrued interest, if any, from August 17, 2018 if settlement occurs after that date.

Last Reported Sale Price of Our Common Stock on August 14, 2018:		$5.05 per share.

Initial Conversion Rate:		180.0180 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the notes, subject to adjustment under the Indenture.

Initial Conversion Price:		Approximately $5.56 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment under the Indenture.

Conversion Premium:		Approximately 10.0% above the last reported sale price of our common stock on August 14, 2018.

Pricing Date:		August 14, 2018.

CUSIP Number (144A):		29355A AA5

ISIN (144A):		US29355AAA51

Listing:		None.

Net Proceeds:		We estimate that the net proceeds from the sale of the notes will be approximately $57.6 million, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount and estimated offering expenses payable by us. We estimate that the net proceeds from the sale of the Affiliate notes will be approximately $4.9 million.

Use of Proceeds:		We expect to use the net proceeds from the sale of the notes and the Affiliate notes for general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment of indebtedness, working capital, and potential acquisitions and strategic transactions. See “Use of Proceeds” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum.

Description of Notes—Conversion Rights—Increase in Conversion Rate upon Conversion upon a Make-Whole

Fundamental Change

Holders who convert their notes in connection with a make-whole fundamental change occurring prior to the maturity date of the notes may be entitled to an increase in the conversion rate for the notes so surrendered for conversion.

The following table sets forth the number of additional shares by which the conversion rate for the notes will be increased per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each stock price and effective date set forth below:

	Stock Price
Effective Date	$5.05	$5.25	$5.50	$5.75	$6.00	$7.00	$8.00	$9.00	$10.00	$15.00	$20.00
August 17, 2018	18.0018	18.0018	18.0018	18.0018	18.0018	15.4053	11.8361	9.3557	7.4882	2.3303	0.3554
August 1, 2019	18.0018	18.0018	18.0018	18.0018	18.0018	13.2449	10.1253	8.0240	6.4567	2.0706	0.3351
August 1, 2020	18.0018	18.0018	18.0018	17.5618	15.5732	10.6280	8.0530	6.4039	5.1884	1.7284	0.2818
August 1, 2021	18.0018	18.0018	16.4429	13.8625	11.8863	7.5353	5.6510	4.5257	3.6986	1.2881	0.2079
August 1, 2022	18.0018	15.7306	11.8162	9.0366	7.1112	3.8624	2.9215	2.3793	1.9619	0.7142	0.1092
August 1, 2023	18.0018	10.4582	1.8002	0.0000	0.0000	0.0000	0.0000	0.0000	0.0000	0.0000	0.0000

The exact stock prices and effective dates or redemption notice dates may not be set forth in the table above, in which case:

· If the stock price is between two stock prices in the table or the effective date is between two effective dates in the table, the number of additional shares by which the conversion rate will be increased will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of additional shares set forth for the higher and lower stock prices and the earlier and later effective dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year.

· If the stock price is greater than $20.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the stock prices set forth in the column headings of the table above), no additional shares will be added to the conversion rate.

· If the stock price is less than $5.05 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the stock prices set forth in the column headings of the table above), no additional shares will be added to the conversion rate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the conversion rate per $1,000 principal amount of notes exceed 198.0198 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the conversion rate as set forth in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum under “Description of Notes-Conversion Rights-Conversion Rate Adjustments.”

Our obligation to increase the conversion rate for notes converted in connection with a make-whole fundamental change could be considered a penalty, in which case the enforceability thereof would be subject to general principles of reasonableness and equitable remedies.
