1. Last Date of Employment. You will remain an employee of ADI through December 27, 2016 (the “Termination Date”). On the Termination Date, your employment with ADI will terminate and you will no longer be eligible to receive pay or ADI-sponsored benefits, except as set forth below. This Agreement constitutes notice of termination of your employment. The period from the date of this letter until the Termination Date is inclusive of your notice period. The cessation of your employment by mutual agreement with effect from the Termination Date was announced by ADI on September, 19, 2016.

2. Transition Period. The following provisions apply to you during the period that commenced on September 19, 2016 and which will end on the Termination Date (the “Transition Period”):

b. Work Responsibilities During Transition Period. Following the termination of your executive officer and senior vice president status on October 29, 2016, for the remainder of the Transition Period, you will act in the capacity of special advisor to Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, President and CEO of Analog Devices, Inc.

c. Compensation. During the Transition Period, ADI will pay you one hundred percent of your current base salary, and you will continue to be eligible to receive a bonus equal to 100% of your base pay for the third and fourth quarters of the 2016 fiscal year. Your bonus will be calculated in accordance with the same performance targets set forth in ADI’s 2016 Executive Incentive Performance Plan, and will be paid on or about the same payment date as the second half 2016 bonus payment is made to all United States-based employees of ADI. Your compensation will be subject to applicable taxes.

d. Benefits. ADI will continue to provide you with medical and other benefits through to the Termination Date on the same terms as it provided them to you to date.

which amounts to One Million, Eight Hundred and Sixty Thousand US Dollars (US$1,860,000 (gross)), less applicable taxes, (the “Severance Payment”). The Severance Payment will be made to you as part of the normal payroll process in the month in which you terminate.

You will be responsible to pay the benefit in kind taxes (BIK) for the premium associated with such health insurance benefits at the 2017 rates.
