Introductory Note

On January 5, 2018, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 17, 2017 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Silver Spring Networks, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Itron, Inc., a Washington corporation (“Parent”), and Ivory Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Acquisition Sub”), Acquisition Sub was merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger. At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), the Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (each, a “Company Share”), other than Company Shares held by stockholders who have validly exercised their appraisal rights under Delaware law, Company Shares owned by Parent, Acquisition Sub and the Company or their respective subsidiaries or Company Shares subject to outstanding restricted stock awards and performance stock units, was converted into the right to receive $16.25 in cash (the “Merger Consideration”), without interest thereon.

At the Effective Time, each option to purchase Company Shares that was outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a “Company Option”) was treated as follows.

• Each unvested Company Option that had a per share exercise price that was less than the Merger Consideration, and that was held by a current service provider (other than a non-employee member of the Company’s Board of Directors), was assumed by Parent at the Effective Time and was converted into and became an option to acquire common stock, no par value, of Parent (“Parent Shares”) (each such option, an “Adjusted Option”), on the same material terms and conditions as were applicable under the corresponding Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time. The number of Parent Shares subject to each Adjusted Option was determined by multiplying the number of Company Shares subject to such corresponding Company Option by the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the Merger Consideration by (ii) a volume-weighted average of the trading prices of Parent Shares for ten trading days preceding (and including) January 5, 2018 (the “Exchange Ratio”). The per share exercise price for Parent Shares issuable upon exercise of each Adjusted Option was determined by dividing the applicable per share exercise price of the corresponding Company Option by the Exchange Ratio.

• Each Company Option that had a per share exercise price that was less than the Merger Consideration and that either: (i) was vested or (ii) was unvested and held by a non-employee member of the Company’s Board of Directors, was not assumed by Parent and was cancelled at the Effective Time in exchange for a payment of an amount in cash, less applicable withholding taxes, equal to the product of (A) the aggregate number of Company Shares subject to such Company Option multiplied by (B) the excess of the Merger Consideration over the applicable per share exercise price of such Company Option.

• Each Company Option, whether vested or unvested, that had a per share exercise price that was equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, became vested and exercisable by the holder thereof, and each such Company Option was, to the extent not exercised as of the Effective Time, cancelled at the Effective Time with no payment made therefor.

At the Effective Time, each Company restricted stock unit award that was outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a “Company RSU”) was treated as follows.

• Each unvested Company RSU that was held by a current service provider (other than Company RSUs held by a non-employee member of the Company’s Board of Directors) was assumed by Parent at the Effective Time and was converted into a restricted stock unit to receive, on substantially the same terms and conditions as were previously applicable to such Company RSU, a number of Parent Shares equal to the number of Company Shares that were subject to such Company RSU multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (each, an “Adjusted RSU”).

• Each vested Company RSU and each unvested Company RSU held by a non-employee member of the Company’s Board of Directors was not assumed by Parent and at the Effective Time was converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in cash, less applicable withholding taxes, for each Company Share subject to such Company RSU.

At the Effective Time, each Company performance stock unit award (each, a “Company PSU”) that was outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time was treated as follows.

• Each Company PSU granted during 2015 (each, a “Company 2015 PSU”) that was outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time terminated without the payment of any consideration therefor and the holders of such terminated Company 2015 PSUs ceased to have any rights with respect thereto.

• For each Company PSU granted during 2017 (each, a “Company 2017 PSU”), that was outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, the performance conditions were deemed satisfied at 100% of the target level of achievement and (i) the portion of each such Company 2017 PSU that was outstanding and unvested as to service-based vesting conditions was treated as an Adjusted RSU, and (ii) the portion of each Company 2017 PSU that was outstanding and vested as to both performance conditions and service-based conditions was cancelled and converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in cash, less applicable withholding taxes, for each Company Share subject to such fully-vested Company 2017 PSU.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement is only a summary, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 18, 2017, and which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

The information set forth in the Introductory Note and Item 5.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

In connection with the consummation of the Merger, on January 5, 2018, the Company notified The New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that each Company Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration and requested that the NYSE file with the SEC an application on Form 25 to delist the Company Shares. As such, the Company Shares, which traded under the symbol “SSNI,” ceased trading on the NYSE as of January 5, 2018. Additionally, the Company intends to file with the SEC a certification and notice of termination on Form 15 with respect to the Company Shares, requesting that such stock be deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and that the reporting obligations of the Company with respect to the Company Shares under Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Exchange Act be suspended.

Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

The information set forth in the Introductory Note and Items 2.01, 3.01 and 5.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 5.01 Changes in Control of Registrant.

On January 5, 2018, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, a certificate of merger was duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, at which time Acquisition Sub merged with and into the Company with the Company as the surviving corporation. As a result of the Merger, the Company became a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of Parent.

Parent is required to pay $16.25 per share, without interest, in cash in exchange for each Company Share, and the amounts described above with respect to outstanding Company Options, Company RSUs and Company PSUs, for an aggregate total purchase price (net of acquired cash) of approximately $830 million. The transaction was funded from cash on hand, the net proceeds from Parent’s private offering of $300 million aggregate principal amount of 5.000% senior notes due 2026, and the refinancing of Parent’s existing $650 million term loan facility.

The information set forth in the Introductory Note and Items 2.01, 3.01 and 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference herein.

If mailed, notice is given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the stockholder at such stockholder’s address as it appears on the records of the Company. Notice of the time, place, if any, and purpose of any meeting of stockholders may be waived in writing, signed by the person entitled to notice thereof, or waived by electronic transmission by such person, either before or after such meeting, and will be waived by any such person by his or her attendance thereat in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or by proxy, except when such person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

The stockholders present at a duly called or convened meeting, at which a quorum is present, may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum. Except as otherwise provided by the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of a majority of shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by duly authorized and executed proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders. Except as otherwise provided by the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by duly authorized and executed proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors.

-ii-

vote by a class or classes or series is required, except where otherwise provided by the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a majority of the outstanding shares of such class or classes or series, present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by duly authorized and executed proxy, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on the matter, and the affirmative vote of the majority (plurality, in the case of the election of directors) of shares of such class or classes or series present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by duly authorized and executed proxy at the meeting shall be the act of such class or classes or series.

3.6 Adjournment and Notice of Adjourned Meetings. Any meeting of stockholders, whether annual or special, may be adjourned from time to time either by the person who is the chair of the meeting or by the vote of a majority of the shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by duly authorized and executed proxy. When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, if any, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place, if any, thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the Company may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

3.7 Voting Rights. For the purpose of determining those stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of the stockholders, except as otherwise provided by law, only persons in whose names shares stand on the stock ledger of the Company on the record date, as determined by the process described in Section 7.4 of these Bylaws, shall be entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall have the right to do so either in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or may authorize an agent or agents to act for such stockholder by proxy granted in accordance with the DGCL.

Nothing contained in these Bylaws shall require the Company to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting: (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that, the information required to gain access to such list is provided in the notice of the meeting, or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Company. In the event that the Company determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Company may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Company. The list shall be open to examination of any stockholder during the time of the meeting as provided by the DGCL.

-iii-

3.9 Joint Owners of Stock. If shares or other securities having voting power stand of record in the names of two (2) or more persons, whether as fiduciaries, members of a partnership, joint tenants, tenants in common, tenants by the entirety or otherwise, or if two (2) or more persons have the same fiduciary relationship respecting the same shares, unless the Secretary of the Company is given written notice to the contrary and is furnished with a copy of the instrument or order appointing them or creating the relationship wherein it is so provided, their acts with respect to voting shall have the following effect: (a) if only one (1) votes, such person’s act binds all; (b) if more than one (1) vote, the act of the majority so voting binds all; (c) if more than one (1) vote, but the vote is evenly split on any particular matter, each faction may vote the securities in question proportionally, or any person voting the shares, or a beneficiary, if any, may apply to the Delaware Court of Chancery for relief as provided in Section 217(b) of the DGCL. If the instrument so filed with the Secretary shows that any such tenancy is held in unequal interests, a majority or even split for the purpose of this Bylaw shall be a majority or even split in interest.

3.10 Action Without Meeting.

3.10.1 Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, any action required by the DGCL to be taken at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders, or any action that may be taken at any annual or special meeting of such stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing or by telegram, cablegram, email or other electronic transmission (hereinafter “electronic transmission”), setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Company by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business or an officer or agent of the Company having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded.

3.10.2 Every written consent or electronic transmission under this Bylaw shall bear the date of signature of each stockholder who signs the consent, and no written consent or electronic transmission shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless, within sixty (60) days of the earliest dated consent delivered to the Company in the manner herein required, written consents or electronic transmissions signed by a sufficient number of stockholders to take action are delivered to the Company by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business or an officer or agent of the Company having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Company’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.

3.10.3 Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing or by electronic transmission and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for such meeting had been the date that written consents or electronic transmissions signed by a sufficient number of stockholders to take action were delivered to the Company as provided in Section 228(c) of the DGCL.

-iv-

3.10.4 An electronic transmission consenting to an action to be taken and transmitted by a stockholder or proxyholder, or by a person or persons authorized to act for a stockholder or proxyholder, shall be deemed to be written, signed and dated for the purposes of this Bylaw, provided that any such electronic transmission sets forth or is delivered with information from which the Company can determine (i) that the electronic transmission was transmitted by the stockholder or proxyholder or by a person or persons authorized to act for the stockholder or proxyholder and (ii) the date on which such stockholder, proxyholder or authorized person or persons transmitted such electronic transmission.

11.3 Expenses. The Company shall advance to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer, of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a

-xv-

director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, prior to the final disposition of the proceeding, promptly following request therefor, all expenses incurred by any director or officer in connection with such proceeding, provided, however, that, if the DGCL requires, an advancement of expenses incurred by a director or officer in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such indemnitee, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) shall be made only upon delivery to the Company of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that such indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under this ARTICLE 11 or otherwise.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise determined pursuant to paragraph (e) of this ARTICLE 11, no advance shall be made by the Company to an officer of the Company (except by reason of the fact that such officer is or was a director of the Company, in which event this paragraph shall not apply) in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, if a determination is reasonably and promptly made (i) by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the proceeding, even if not a quorum, or (ii) by a committee of such directors designated by a majority of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (iii) if there are no such directors, or such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that the facts known to the decision-making party at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company.

11.4 Enforcement. Without the necessity of entering into an express contract, all rights to indemnification and advances to directors and officers under this ARTICLE 11 shall be deemed to be contractual rights and be effective to the same extent and as if provided for in a contract between the Company and the director or officer. Any right to indemnification or advances granted by this ARTICLE 11 to a director or officer shall be enforceable by or on behalf of the person holding such right in any court of competent jurisdiction if (i) the claim for indemnification or advances is denied, in whole or in part, or (ii) no disposition of such claim is made within ninety (90) days of request therefor. The claimant in such enforcement action, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting the claim. In connection with any claim for indemnification, the Company shall be entitled to raise as a defense to any such action that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct that make it permissible under the DGCL or any other applicable law for the Company to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed. In connection with any claim by an officer of the Company (except in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such officer is or was a director of the Company) for advances, the Company shall be entitled to raise a defense as to any such action clear and convincing evidence that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, or with respect to any criminal action or proceeding that such person acted without reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was lawful. Neither the failure of the Company (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL or any other applicable law, nor an actual

-xvi-

determination by the Company (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

11.5 Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights conferred on any person by this ARTICLE 11 shall not be exclusive of any other right which such person may have or hereafter acquire under any applicable statute, provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding office. The Company is specifically authorized to enter into individual contracts with any or all of its directors, officers, employees or agents respecting indemnification and advances, to the fullest extent not prohibited by the DGCL or any other applicable law.

11.6 Survival of Rights. The rights conferred on any person by this ARTICLE 11 shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or other agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

11.7 Insurance. To the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, or any other applicable law, the Company, upon approval by the Board of Directors, may purchase insurance on behalf of any person required or permitted to be indemnified pursuant to this
ARTICLE 11.

11.8 Amendments. Any repeal or modification of this ARTICLE 11 shall only be prospective and shall not affect the rights under this ARTICLE 11 in effect at the time of the alleged occurrence of any action or omission to act that is the cause of any proceeding against any agent of the Company.

11.9 Saving Clause. If this ARTICLE 11 or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify each director and officer to the full extent not prohibited by any applicable portion of this ARTICLE 11 that shall not have been invalidated, or by any other applicable law. If this Section 11.9 shall be invalid due to the application of the indemnification provisions of another jurisdiction, then the Company shall indemnify each director and officer to the full extent under applicable law.

11.10 Certain Definitions. For the purposes of this ARTICLE 11, the following definitions shall apply:

11.10.1 The term “proceeding” shall be broadly construed and shall include, without limitation, the investigation, preparation, prosecution, defense, settlement, arbitration and appeal of, and the giving of testimony in, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative.

11.10.3 The term the “Company” shall include, in addition to the Company, the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this ARTICLE 11 with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.

11.10.4 References to a “director,” “officer,” “employee,” or “agent” of the Company shall include, without limitation, situations where such person is serving at the request of the Company as, respectively, a director, officer, employee, trustee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.

12.2 Notice to Directors. Any notice required to be given to any director may be given by any method stated in Section 12.1, or, as applicable, as provided for in Section 4.7.4 of these Bylaws.

12.4 Methods of Notice. It shall not be necessary that the same method of giving notice be employed in respect of all recipients of notice, but one permissible method may be employed in respect of any one or more, and any other permissible method or methods may be employed in respect of any other or others.

ARTICLE 13

Industry-defining acquisition advances ability to deliver more value-added services and outcomes-

Together, our strong engineering talent, leading technology and deep domain expertise will unlock incredible innovation, choice and value for customers around the world.”

The legacy Silver Spring Networks business is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Itron, Inc. and will be integrated and reported as a new business segment, Itron Networked Solutions.

Itron will provide total consolidated company revenue and non-GAAP earnings per share guidance for full-year 2018, inclusive of the addition of Silver Spring Networks, in conjunction with its fourth quarter and full-year 2017 financial results.
