Your start date is expected to be September 8, 2025.

You will perform those duties and have those responsibilities commensurate with the position of SVP and CFO and you agree to devote your full business time, best efforts, skill, knowledge, attention and energies to the advancement of the business and interests of the Company and to the performance of your duties and responsibilities as an employee of the Company. Your work location will be at the Skyworks offices in Irvine, California and you will travel as appropriate to fulfill your duties.

You will initially be paid a base salary at the annualized rate of $600,000, payable biweekly in accordance with the standard payroll practices of the Company and subject to all withholdings and deductions as required by law. Your salary will be reviewed in November of each year beginning in November 2025 by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”), along with the salaries of the rest of the executive leadership team.

You will receive a one-time signing bonus of $800,000 (the “Signing Bonus”). The Signing Bonus will be advanced to you in the Company’s second regular payroll period following your start date (subject to all withholdings and payroll deductions as required by law). This one-time Signing Bonus shall be deemed earned on the twenty-four (24)-month anniversary of your start date, subject to your continued employment with Skyworks as of such date.

For the 2026 Fiscal Year (i.e., October 4, 2025 through October 2, 2026), you will be eligible to participate in the Executive Incentive Plan (the “EIP”), which provides cash incentives to the executive leadership team for the Company’s performance against specific predetermined corporate operating metrics. Your target award under the EIP for the 2026 Fiscal Year will be 100% of your annualized base salary that year (with a maximum award of 200% of your annualized base salary), with payment under the EIP based on Skyworks’ performance during the fiscal year. The corporate performance metrics for FY2026 will be established by the Compensation Committee of the Board in November 2025. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, your participation in the EIP will be subject to all terms and conditions of the EIP document, including but not limited to the requirement that you remain actively employed by the Company through the date any payment is made under the EIP. An award under the EIP, if any, is earned on the date of payment.

You will receive a grant of Restricted Stock Units (“Onboarding RSUs”), with the number of shares subject to such award calculated by dividing $3,000,000 by the closing price of the Company’s common stock on your start date. The Onboarding RSUs will vest over a four-year period, contingent upon your continued employment with Skyworks, at a rate of twenty-five percent per year on each anniversary of the grant date and will be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable award agreement.

You will receive a Performance Share Award (“New Hire PSA”), with the number of shares subject to such award calculated by dividing $3,800,000 by the closing price of the Company’s common stock on your start date.

You will be eligible to enroll in the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan, subject to the terms of that plan. Participation will provide you with an opportunity to purchase shares of Company stock at a discount from the stock’s fair market value.
