On April 12, 2025, upon the recommendation of the Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Qorvo, Inc. (the “Company”), the Board increased the size of the Board to 9 members and appointed Richard L. Clemmer and Chris Koopmans to the Board, effective immediately. Each of Messrs. Clemmer and Koopmans will serve until the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders and until such person’s successors are duly elected and qualified, or until such person’s earlier death, resignation or removal. In connection with such person’s election as a non-employee director, each of Messrs. Clemmer and Koopmans will receive a pro rata portion of the $95,000 annual cash retainer for service as a director for the remaining portion of the current term of the Company’s directors. Also, each of Messrs. Clemmer and Koopmans will receive an equity award equivalent to a pro rata portion of the $225,000 annual award of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that the Company provides to its non-employee directors. These RSUs will fully vest on August 13, 2025 and are subject to accelerated vesting in certain circumstances. In addition, it is expected that each of Messrs. Clemmer and Koopmans will enter into the Company’s standard form of indemnification agreement. The form of indemnification agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 5, 2015, and is incorporated herein by reference. The committees of the Board to which Messrs. Clemmer and Koopmans would be named have not yet been determined as of the date hereof. There are no arrangements or understandings between each of Messrs. Clemmer and Koopmans and any other persons pursuant to which such person was elected as a member of the Board. Neither Mr. Clemmer nor Mr. Koopmans have any direct or indirect material interest in any transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. On April 12, 2025, David H. Y. Ho, a member of the Board, notified the Company of his decision to resign from the Board. At the time of Mr. Ho’s resignation, he was also a member of the compensation committee and the corporate development committee of the Board. Mr. Ho has advised the Company that his decision to resign from the Board is to address other professional commitments and is not due to any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to Company operations, policies or practices. ITEM 8.01. Other Events. The Company issued a press release announcing the changes to the Board, the election of Messrs. Clemmer and Koopmans, and resignation of Mr. Ho. The press release is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
