All Cash Replacement Warrant Amounts will have the same terms and conditions (including, with respect to vesting and acceleration) as applied to the award of Unvested Company Warrants for which they were exchanged, except for terms rendered inoperative by reason of the Transactions or for such other administrative or ministerial changes as Parent and the Company determine are appropriate to conform the administration of the Cash Replacement Warrant Amounts.

(c) Further Actions for Company Warrants. The Company (including the Company Board or any committee thereof which governs or administers the outstanding Company Warrants and/or the Company Warrant Plans) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pass resolutions and, as applicable, to obtain any required consents from the holders of Company Warrants and more generally to take all actions necessary or advisable, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (i) to effect the transactions contemplated by this Section 3.5, (ii) to terminate each Company Warrant Plan effective at such time as no Company Warrants under such Company Warrant Plan are outstanding, and (iii) terminate any Company Warrant that has not been issued under a Company Warrant Plan and has not be tendered pursuant to Section 3.5.3(a).

(c) From and after the No Shop Period Start Date until the earlier of the Offer Acceptance Time or the termination of this MoU in accordance with its terms, unless prohibited by a nondisclosure agreement entered into by the Company in the twelve (12) months prior to the date hereof, the Company shall promptly (and in any event no later than the end of the next Business Day) after becoming aware of a receipt by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives of an Alternate Proposal or of any request for non-public information or inquiry relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries by any Person or a group of Persons, unless prohibited by a nondisclosure agreement entered into by the Company in the six (6) months prior to the date hereof, provide Parent with written notice of the material terms and conditions of such Alternate Proposal, request or inquiry (including in each case any subsequent material developments or modifications thereof), the identity of the Person or Persons (and if known to the Company, its or their ultimate beneficial owners) making any such Alternate Proposal, request or inquiry and any copies of (including amendments or proposed amendments) of any such Alternate Proposal, request or inquiry, and copies of any written letters of intent, proposals, agreements or other written materials (including in draft form) submitted by such Person or its Representatives.

-70-

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this MoU to the contrary, if, following the No Shop Period Start Date, the Company receives (other than as a result of a breach by the Company of Section 7.1.2(a)) any bona fide written Alternate Proposal that the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors) (1) constitutes or is reasonably likely to lead to a Superior Proposal and (2) that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, the Company may, subject to compliance with its obligations under this Section 7.1.2, engage in any of the actions referred to in Section 7.1.2(a)(ii) and (v); provided that (i) the Person or group of Persons making such Alternate Proposal or request, as applicable, for non-public information or inquiry has signed a confidentiality agreement with the Company on terms not less restrictive in any material respect on such Person or group of Persons than the Confidentiality Agreement and (ii) all information that is provided to such Person or group of Persons but was not previously provided to Parent shall be provided to Parent as promptly as practicable (and in any event no later than the end of the next Business Day).

(e) Except as set forth in this Section 7.1.2(e), the Company or Company Board shall not make a Change in Company Announcement Statement or a Change in Company Board Recommendation. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 7.1.2(e) or anything else to the contrary in this MoU, the Company or Company Board may (i) make a Change in Company Announcement Statement or take any action (or fail to take any action) that constitutes a Failure to Issue the Company Board Recommendation after the completion of the Consultation on the Offer in accordance with Section 2.3 or (ii) make a Change in Company Board Recommendation, as applicable in either case, in response to the receipt of any bona fide written Alternate Proposal that the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors) (1) constitutes a Superior Proposal and (2) that the failure to make a Change in Company Announcement Statement or a Change in Company Board Recommendation, as applicable, in response to such Superior Proposal would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided that the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives have complied in all material respects with their obligations pursuant to Section 7.1.2(a). Prior to the Company Board making a Change in Company Announcement Statement (or taking any action (or failing to take any action) that constitutes a Failure to Issue the Company Board Recommendation) or a Change in Company Board Recommendation pursuant to this Section 7.1.2(e), the Company shall send a written notice to Parent that the Company intends, in accordance with the terms of this Section 7.1.2(e), to take such action, which notice shall include all material information relating to such Alternate Proposal (including the identity of the third party, the proposed transaction structure and financing, if any, and other material terms and conditions, including copies of all written agreements, documents or materials submitted in connection therewith). For a period of five (5) Business Days from the date on which Parent received such notice, the Company shall, upon the request of Parent, make itself available to Parent to discuss in good faith with Parent any changes to the terms of this MoU or the Offer irrevocably offered by Parent. If, after such five (5) Business Day period, the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors), after giving effect to such changes as are irrevocably offered by Parent, that such Alternate Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal, then the Company may make a Change in Company Announcement Statement or a Change in Company Board Recommendation, as applicable, in response to such Superior Proposal and may terminate this MoU pursuant to Section 9.4(b) (including payment of the

-71-

Company Termination Fee); provided, however, that in the event of any material amendments or modifications to such Alternate Proposal (it being understood that any change to the financial terms of such proposal shall be deemed a material modification), the Company will be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent and to comply with the requirements of this Section 7.1.2(e) with respect to such new written notice (it being understood that the references to “five (5) Business Days” in respect of such new written notice will be three (3) Business Days). In the event the Company Board determines that such Alternate Proposal no longer constitutes a Superior Proposal, then the Company shall thereafter, with respect to such Alternate Proposal, be subject to the provisions of Section 7.1.2(a), Section 7.1.2(b), Section 7.1.2(c), Section 7.1.2(d), and this Section 7.1.2(e) in all respects.

(f) From and after the No Shop Period Start Date until the earlier of the Offer Acceptance Time or the termination of this MoU in accordance with its terms, the Company shall, shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their officers and directors to (and shall instruct and not authorize or permit each of their respective Representatives to) (i) immediately cease and cause to be terminated any activities, discussions or negotiations existing with any Person conducted heretofore with respect or relating to any Alternate Proposal, (ii) promptly (and in any event no later than the end of the next Business Day) request the prompt return or destruction of all non-public information concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries theretofore furnished to any such Person, and (iii) terminate all access granted to any such Person and its Representatives to any physical or electronic data room (or any other diligence access). The Company shall promptly inform its Subsidiaries and its and its Subsidiaries’ Representatives of the obligations undertaken in this Section 7.1.2.

(g) Nothing contained in this Section 7.1.2 shall prohibit the Company or the Company Board from (i) taking and disclosing to the Company’s securityholders a position with respect to a tender or exchange offer by a third party contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act (or any similar communication to securityholders in connection with the making or amendment of a tender offer or exchange offer) or from making any legally required disclosure to securityholders with regard to the Transactions or an Alternate Proposal; provided, however, that any Change in Company Announcement Statement or any Change in Company Board Recommendation may only be made in accordance with Section 7.1.2(e) or (ii) issuing a “stop, look and listen” disclosure or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act.

(h) From the earlier to occur of the No Shop Period Start Date and the termination of this MoU in accordance with its terms, the Company shall promptly (and in any event no later than the 48 hours) after becoming aware of a receipt by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives of an Alternate Proposal, provide Parent with the information described in the first sentence of Section 7.1.2(c) with respect to such Alternate Proposal (unless prohibited by a nondisclosure agreement entered into by the Company in the six (6) months prior to the date hereof). The Company agrees that it shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, enter into any confidentiality or other agreement subsequent to the date of this MoU which prohibits the Company from complying with this Section 7.1.2(h).

-72-

(i) Without limiting the foregoing, it is agreed that in the event any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ respective Representatives (acting at the Company’s direction or with its approval or knowledge (without any duty of independent inquiry)) takes any action, on behalf of the Company, which, if taken by the Company, would constitute a breach of this Section 7.1.2, and the Company does not take reasonable action to seek to cure such breach within two (2) Business Days of the earlier of (i) the date on which the Company receives written notice from Parent or Purchaser of such breach and (ii) the date on which the Company first obtains knowledge of such breach, then the Company shall be deemed to be in breach of this Section 7.1.2.

(j) Notwithstanding any other provision of this MoU, discussions held or actions undertaken by the Company and its Representatives to arrange a Permitted Company Financing shall not constitute a breach of Section 7.1.2.

7.1.3 Access. Subject to applicable Laws and the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, upon the reasonable request of Parent, the Company shall (and shall cause its Subsidiaries to) use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Parent’s directors, officers, employees, financing sources and other authorized Representatives (i) such information of the Company and its Subsidiaries as is reasonably necessary to facilitate the Company’s integration planning and operational transition planning efforts, (ii) such financial and operating data and other data relating to the business, properties, contracts, assets, liabilities, personnel and other aspects of the Company and its Subsidiaries as Parent may from time to time reasonably request, and (iii) such access to the Company’s officers, directors and employees as Parent may from time to time reasonably request; provided, however, that all requests from Parent, Merger Sub or their respective Representatives for such access or information pursuant to this Section 7.1 shall be directed to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer of Chief Financial Officer and not to any other director, officer or employee of the Company unless consented to in writing by the Company; and provided further, that the Company shall not be required to provide access to or disclose any information if such access or disclosure (A) would jeopardize any attorney-client privilege of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or violate any contract, Contract, Law or Order (provided that the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such information to be provided in a manner that would not result in such jeopardy or violation) or (B) could reasonably be expected to jeopardize the health and safety of any Representative of the Company or its Subsidiaries, including in light of any pandemic or epidemic (including SARS-CoV-2 or COVID-19), any Protest Event, or any Protest Measures. No information provided pursuant to this Section 7.1.3 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made by the Company. All such information shall be governed by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. Any investigation pursuant to this Section 7.1.3 shall be conducted in such manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding anything in this MoU to the contrary, neither Parent nor Purchaser, nor their respective counsel, financial advisors, auditors and other authorized representatives shall conduct any invasive investigation or sampling of any soil, subsurface strata, surface water, groundwater, sediments, air or building materials at, under, in or about any property owned, leased or operated by the Company or its Subsidiaries.

(d) The Company Termination Fee shall be payable by the Company to Parent in the event that the Company terminates this MoU pursuant to Section 9.4(b).

(e) Any fee payable by the Company to Parent pursuant to this Section 9.5.2 shall, notwithstanding the termination of this MoU, be made by wire transfer of same day funds (i) within two (2) Business Days following a termination contemplated by Section 9.5.2(b), (ii) in the case of a termination by the Company pursuant to Section 9.4(b), concurrently with and as a condition to such termination and (iii) concurrently with the consummation of or entry into an Alternate Proposal Agreement contemplated by Section 9.5.2(c).

Renesas to Acquire Cellular IoT Technology Leader Sequans Through Tender Offer

The Acquisition of Sequans Will Allow Renesas

to Extend More Comprehensive IoT Solution Offering

TOKYO, Japan and PARIS, France – August 7, 2023 – Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE: 6723, “Renesas”), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, and Sequans Communications S.A. (NYSE: SQNS, “Sequans”), a leader in 5G/4G cellular IoT chips and modules, today announced that the two companies have entered into a memorandum of understanding (the “MoU”). Pursuant to the terms of the MoU, Renesas will, following consultation of the Sequans’ works council and favorable recommendation by the Sequans Board, commence a tender offer to acquire all outstanding ordinary shares, including American Depositary Shares (ADS) of Sequans for $3.03 per ADS (each ADS representing four ordinary shares) in cash. The transaction values Sequans at approximately $249 million, including net debt, and is expected to close by the first quarter of calendar year 2024, subject to confirmation of tax treatment from relevant authorities, regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.

Upon closing of the transaction, Renesas intends to integrate Sequans’ breadth of cellular connectivity products and IP into its core product lineup, including microcontrollers, microprocessors, analog and mixed signal front ends. The acquisition will allow Renesas to immediately expand its reach to the Wide Area Network (WAN) market space encompassing a broad range of data rates. It will also enhance Renesas’ already rich portfolio of Personal Area Network (PAN) and Local Area Network (LAN) connectivity products.

The market for cellular IoT technology provided by companies like Sequans is growing rapidly, fueled by demand for smart meters, asset tracking systems, smart homes, smart cities, connected vehicles, fixed wireless access networks, and mobile computing devices. An industry study forecasts the number of cellular IoT devices will continue to grow by more than 10 percent annually.

“We are thrilled to take our partnership with Sequans to the next level,” said Hidetoshi Shibata, President and CEO of Renesas. “Sequans is a leader in the fast-growing cellular IoT market with wide cellular IoT network coverage. The company’s technology gives Renesas a path to offer broad connectivity capabilities across IoT applications to address the evolving customer needs.”

“We have been working closely with Renesas to serve the growing market demand for massive IoT and broadband IoT customers,” said Georges Karam, Chairman and CEO of Sequans. “As many telecom operators around the world continue to invest in 5G infrastructure and with the expanding deployment of IoT applications, combining with Renesas opens up vast opportunities to usher in a new era of seamless connectivity and digital mobility that can transform a multitude of industries.”

The acquisition of Sequans is the latest effort by Renesas to expand its offering of connectivity products through strategic acquisitions, including the purchases of Dialog, Celeno and, most recently, Panthronics. Renesas and Sequans have been collaborating since 2020 to deliver full-scale solutions that combine Renesas’ embedded processors and analog front-end products with Sequans’ wireless chipsets for massive IoT and broadband IoT applications.

Founded in 2003, Sequans is a fabless semiconductor company that designs and develops chipsets and modules for Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Offering products with extensive 5G/4G cellular categories, including 5G NR, Cat 4, Cat 1 and LTE-M/NB-IoT, Sequans provides reliable IoT wireless connectivity without the need for a gateway. The company also has proven expertise in low-power wireless devices, which is crucial in supporting massive IoT applications operating at low data rates. Its certified solutions are designed to work with all major radio frequency regulatory specifications by leading carriers in North America, Asia-Pacific and Europe.

Transaction Details

Under the terms of the MoU, Renesas will initiate a cash tender offer of $3.03 per Sequans ADS, subject to certain conditions. This offer represents a premium of 42.3% to Sequans’ closing price on August 4, and 7.7% premium to the volume weighted average price over the last twelve months and a 32.6% premium to the volume weighted average price over the last six months. The transaction values Sequans at approximately $249 million, including net debt of approximately $52 million.

If, upon completion of the appropriate works council consultation, Sequans’ Board recommends the tender offer to the holders of Sequans’ ordinary shares and ADSs, Renesas will commence the tender offer thereafter. The closing of the transaction is subject to the valid tender of Sequans shares representing at least 90% of the outstanding share capital of Sequans on a fully diluted basis, including Sequans shares owned by Renesas. The transaction is also subject to confirmation of tax treatment from relevant authorities, and receipt of required regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.

In addition, upon Sequans Board recommendation and appropriate works council consultation on the transactions described below, Sequans will convene an ordinary and extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders to vote on a series of transactions that would result in Sequans structurally, but not operationally, redomiciling in Germany. Following the closing of the tender offer and completion of such transactions, any ordinary shares or ADSs not tendered would be ultimately transferred to Renesas under German squeeze-out rules for statutory compensation. In connection with these transactions, Sequans’ existing French activities, including assets, liabilities and employees, would be first transferred to a new wholly-owned French subsidiary of Sequans.

The tender offer is currently expected to close by the first quarter of 2024 and the redomiciling and related transactions are currently expected to close by the fourth quarter of 2024. Assuming the completion of the tender offer, Sequans will become a privately held company and Sequans’ ADSs will no longer be listed on any public market.

The tender offer will be implemented in accordance with the terms and conditions of the MoU. In addition to the terms of the tender offer, the MoU contains customary representations, warranties and undertakings by Sequans and Renesas.

This announcement may contain certain statements that are, or may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements with respect to the financial condition, results of operations and business of Renesas and/or Sequans and/or the combined group following completion of the transaction and certain plans and objectives of Renesas with respect thereto. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the satisfaction of conditions to the completion of the proposed transaction and the expected completion of the proposed transaction, the timing and benefits thereof, as well as other statements that are not historical fact.

These statements are based on assumptions and assessments made by Renesas and/or Sequans (as applicable) in light of their experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, future developments and other factors they believe appropriate.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect expected results and are based on certain key assumptions. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the potential failure to satisfy conditions to the completion of the proposed transaction due to the failure to receive a sufficient number of tendered shares in the tender offer; the failure to obtain necessary regulatory or other approvals; the outcome of legal proceedings that may be instituted against Sequans and/or others relating to the transaction; the possibility that competing offers will be made; potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships resulting from the announcement or completion of the

proposed transaction; significant or unexpected costs, charges or expenses resulting from the proposed transaction; and negative effects of this announcement or the consummation of the proposed acquisition on the market price of Sequans’ ADS and ordinary shares. Many factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or implied in any forward-looking statements. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements are changes in the global, political, economic, business and competitive environments, market and regulatory forces, future exchange and interest rates, changes in tax rates and future business combinations or dispositions. If any one or more of these risks or uncertainties materializes or if any one or more of the assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ materially from those expected, estimated or projected. Such forward looking statements should therefore be construed in the light of such factors. A more complete description of these and other material risks can be found in Sequans’ filings with the SEC, including its annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2022, subsequent filings on Form 6-K and other documents that may be filed from time to time with the SEC, as well as, the Schedule TO and related tender offer documents to be filed by Parent and Purchaser and the Schedule 14D-9 to be filed by Sequans. Due to such uncertainties and risks, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this announcement. Neither Renesas nor Sequans undertakes any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.

No member of the Renesas group or the Sequans group nor any of their respective associates, directors, officers, employers or advisers, provides any representation, assurance or guarantee that the occurrence of the events expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements in this announcement will actually occur.

Except as expressly provided in this announcement, no forward-looking or other statements have been reviewed by the auditors of the Renesas group or the Sequans group. All subsequent oral or written forward-looking statements attributable to any member of the Renesas group or the Sequans group, or any of their respective associates, directors, officers, employers or advisers, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statement above.
