Company Overview
Mobileye is a leader in the development and deployment of advanced driver assistance systems (“ADAS”) and autonomous driving technologies and solutions. We pioneered ADAS technology more than 20 years ago and have continuously expanded the scope of our ADAS offerings, while leading the evolution to autonomous driving solutions.
Our portfolio of solutions is built upon a comprehensive suite of purpose-built software and hardware technologies designed to provide the capabilities needed to make the future of ADAS and autonomous driving a reality. These technologies can be harnessed to deliver mission-critical capabilities at the edge and in the cloud, advancing the safety of road users, and revolutionizing the driving experience and the movement of people and goods globally.
While today ADAS is central to the advancement of automotive safety, we believe that the future of mobility is autonomous. However, mass adoption of autonomous vehicles is still nascent. Full autonomy — where a human is not actively engaged in driving the vehicle for extended periods of time — requires the autonomous driving solution to be capable of navigating any environment in any condition at any time. Additionally, developing a technology platform whose decision-making process and resulting actions are verifiable is critical to enabling autonomous driving solutions at scale. The ability to drive autonomously not only requires a substantial amount of data, but also a robust technology platform that can withstand the validation and audit process of global regulatory bodies. Finally, the autonomous driving solution needs to be produced at a cost that makes it affordable. We are building our technology platform to address these fundamental and significant challenges in order to enable the full spectrum of solutions, from ADAS to autonomous driving.
We believe that our industry-leading technology platform, built upon over 20 years of research, development, data collection and validation, and purpose-built software and hardware design, gives us a differentiated ability to not only deliver excellent safety ratings and maintain a leadership position with our ADAS solutions, but also to make the mass deployment of autonomous driving solutions a reality. We also believe that the breadth of our solutions, combined with our global customer base, represents a significant market opportunity for us. Our platform is modular by design, and it is highly customizable, which allows our customers to benefit from our cutting-edge, verified, and validated core ADAS capabilities, while enabling our customers to augment and differentiate their offerings. We estimate the current total addressable market (“TAM”) to be approximately $16 billion, composed entirely of selected ADAS market opportunities. We expect the near-term TAM to be approximately $40 billion and the long-term TAM to be approximately $480 billion, as the value of ADAS functionality increases and as Autonomous Vehicle (“AV”) deployment, both in consumer-owned vehicles and fleet-owned vehicle networks, accelerates. We define the near-term TAM as the market size in or about 2026 and the long-term TAM as the market size in or about 2030. The TAM combines market opportunities in ADAS and AV, including Autonomous Mobility as a Service (“AMaaS”).
We have experienced significant growth since our founding. For 2021, 2020, and 2019, our revenue was $1.4 billion, $967 million, and $879 million, respectively, representing year-over-year growth of 43% in 2021. For the three months ended April 2, 2022 and March 27, 2021, our revenue was $394 million and $377 million, respectively, representing period-over-period growth of 4.5%. We currently derive substantially all of our revenue from our commercially deployed ADAS solutions. We recorded net losses of $75 million, $196 million, and $328 million in 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively. We recorded net loss of $60 million and net income of $25 million in the three months ended April 2, 2022 and March 27, 2021, respectively. Our Adjusted Net Income, a non-GAAP financial measure, for 2021, 2020 and 2019 was $474 million,

$289 million, and $51 million, respectively. Our Adjusted Net Income for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and March 27, 2021 was $120 million and $158 million, respectively. As of April 2, 2022, our solutions had been installed in approximately 800 vehicle models (including local country, year, and other vehicle model variations), and our System-on-Chips (“SoCs”) had been deployed in over 100 million vehicles. We are actively working with more than 50 Original Equipment Manufacturers (“OEMs”) worldwide on the implementation of our ADAS solutions, and we announced over 40 new design wins in 2021 alone. We estimate, based on our existing design wins through April 2, 2022, that our ADAS solutions will be deployed in more than an additional 250 million vehicles by 2030, including approximately 50 million vehicles based on our 2021 design wins. These estimates are based on projections of future production volumes that were provided by the OEMs at the time of sourcing our design wins with them for the models related to those design wins. These estimates may deviate from actual production volume (which may be higher or lower than the estimates) and do not include design wins after April 2, 2022.
We were founded in Israel in 1999. Our co-founder, Professor Amnon Shashua, is our President and Chief Executive Officer. Prior to being acquired by Intel for $15.3 billion in 2017, we completed an initial public offering in 2014 and traded under the symbol “MBLY” on the New York Stock Exchange.
Our Technology Platform is Built to Enable the Full-Stack of Autonomous Solutions
Our technology platform, which includes our software and hardware intellectual property, leverages our decades of experience as a technology leader for sensing and perception solutions for the automotive industry and our focused efforts to build highly scalable and cost-efficient autonomous solutions. Our technologies are foundational to the development and deployment of our ADAS capabilities and consumer AV. Our platform is built on five fundamental pillars:

highly advanced, road-tested, sensing and perception technologies built upon years of technology leadership in computer vision and powered by our mission critical software and purpose-built EyeQ® family of SoCs;

a high-precision mapping system, our Road Experience Management™ (“REM™”), that generates AV maps from crowd-sourced data that is uploaded and analyzed in the cloud from REM™-equipped production ADAS solutions that are deployed on vehicles on the road;

a redundant sensor fusion architecture, which we call True Redundancy™, designed to employ two independent perception sub systems — one based solely on cameras, and the other solely on a radar-light detection and ranging (“LiDAR”) subsystem, to enable our goal of building a fully autonomous driving-system that can be validated as safer than human-driven vehicles and deployed in a cost-efficient manner;

the design of next generation imaging-radars, a solution targeted to reduce the need for multiple LiDAR sensors, combined with a single front-facing LiDAR sensor in the redundant sensor configuration of the future, to enable our goal of building a cost-effective fully autonomous driving-system; and

our Responsibility-Sensitive Safety (“RSS”) framework, which has continuously been optimized since it was first published in 2017, is used by international bodies that are currently developing standards with respect to the safety of AV, and forms the backbone of our human-like, computationally efficient, driving policy and decision-making engine.
These five pillars form the core of our platform, which is highly customizable, and we intend to deploy them with increasing functionality to continue to enhance our market-leading ADAS solutions and lead the evolution to autonomous driving solutions.
Efficiency and Scale are the Foundation of our Rich Portfolio of Solutions
We are focused on offering full-stack solutions across the ADAS and autonomous driving markets. These include or are expected to include:

a range of ADAS solutions supporting not only “base” features to meet global regulatory requirements and safety ratings, but also higher-function cloud-enhanced feature sets including crowd-sourced maps and “eyes-on/hands-free” point-to-point assisted driving solutions;
 
2

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 

“eyes-off/hands-free” autonomous driving solutions with a human driver still in the driver’s seat that may require driver intervention in certain situations for consumer AV with the ability to drive safely without geofenced limitations; and

a set of solutions for AMaaS, including a self-driving system, the self-driving vehicles delivered in partnership with OEMs, and a customer-facing application for the movement of people and goods.
We believe we can reach series production for each of these technologies in the future, as each is accomplished by adding a block of our discrete intellectual property that is either in production today or in advanced development stages. We believe that our range of value-creating solutions that are scalable, verifiable, and cost-effective represent a significant competitive advantage.
Efficiency
Our purpose-built EyeQ® family of SoCs have a low power consumption profile and tight software/hardware coupling to achieve “lean compute” for efficiency. The principle of efficiency permeates the overall solution design, including our True RedundancyTM approach, with separate subsystems to increase robustness and reduce the compute resources required to validate the solution, and RSS, which separates the perception system’s validation from the driving policy system. Both of these are critical contributors to achieving efficient solutions.
Scale
We achieve scale by designing our solutions to operate at a cost and performance level that allows our solutions to become ubiquitous. We have designed our solutions to operate with four scale-driven elements:

our REM™ crowd-sourced AV maps allow the map-building and map-updating process to be automated. Our AV maps are designed to enable vehicles equipped with our new category of cloud-enhanced ADAS that we call “Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist” and autonomous driving solutions to drive without the limitations of pre-mapped geofenced zones. These AV maps will support our efforts to deploy in new cities and geographies quickly;

our cost-optimized EyeQ® SoC family is highly scalable and built to be at the core of our full spectrum of current and future ADAS and AV solutions, from base ADAS to autonomous driving. Our current EyeQ®4Mid, 4High, 5Mid, 5High, and our recently announced 6Lite, and 6High, cover the entire spectrum of our ADAS solutions portfolio, and our recently announced EyeQ Ultra™, a monolithic “AV-on-Chip”, covers our autonomous driving solutions portfolio;

our software-defined imaging radars and associated perception technology are designed to function as a second redundant perception layer. By reducing the LiDAR content per vehicle, we believe we will be able to reduce costs significantly, and facilitate consumer AV and AMaaS solutions at scale; and

our driving policy (RSS-based) is designed for global deployment, as it does not rely on local or regional driving cultural norms. In 2021, we announced the expected initial commercial deployment of our AMaaS offering in Munich and Tel Aviv together with Moovit in addition to our current testing sites in China, Israel, Detroit, Miami, Munich, Paris, Stuttgart and Tokyo.
We Have a History of Innovation and Market Leadership
As of April 2, 2022, our solutions had been installed in approximately 800 vehicle models (including local country, year, and other vehicle model variations), and our SoCs had been deployed in over 100 million vehicles. We are actively working with more than 50 OEMs worldwide on the implementation of our ADAS solutions, and we announced over 40 new design wins in 2021 alone. We estimate, based on our existing design wins through April 2, 2022, that our ADAS solutions will be deployed in more than an additional 250 million vehicles by 2030, including approximately 50 million vehicles based on our 2021 design wins.
We currently ship a variety of ADAS solutions to 13 of the 15 largest automakers in the world in addition to many smaller OEMs, and we are recognized for our top-rated safety solutions globally.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Since 2007, when we first launched the EyeQ®1, we have introduced numerous industry-first ADAS products.
Our Family of Purpose-Built EyeQ® SoCs
Our family of purpose-built EyeQ® SoCs is fundamental to our leadership position in ADAS. Our EyeQ® SoCs incorporate a set of proprietary compute-acceleration models, to enhance the accuracy, quality, and functional safety of our perception solutions, while minimizing the power consumption to address the requirements of the automotive market. The EyeQ® family design enables a scalable Electronic Control Unit (“ECU”) architecture, thereby supporting a variety of ADAS solution architectures. Our EyeQ®5 SoCs and subsequent generations feature EyeQ Kit™ — an end-to-end software-development kit (“SDK”) intended to enable the co-hosting of our partners’ and customers’ workloads alongside our cutting-edge artificial intelligence (“AI”) technologies. Importantly, we believe EyeQ Kit™ accelerates time to market for our customers at a lower cost than alternative in-house solutions, while strengthening our partnerships by encouraging our customers to customize their offerings on top of our platform.
Road Experience Management™
REM™ is a cloud-based system that leverages the broad installed-base of REM™-equipped vehicles to build Mobileye Roadbook™, our crowd-sourced, high-definition maps of roads from around the world.
By augmenting our base ADAS with REM™ and Mobileye Roadbook™, we have pioneered the new ADAS category of cloud-enhanced ADAS, which we call Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist.
Our Roadmap to Enable Mass AV Deployment
We believe autonomous driving requires two further major advancements, each of which we are developing, and includes a regulatory framework for deploying AV at scale and a unique sensor fusion architecture, which enhances the effectiveness of the self-driving system.
RSS: Our Technology Safety Concept for Deploying AV at Scale
RSS is a formal, explicit, machine interpretable model governing the safety of our autonomous driving solutions’ driving policy. RSS articulates a set of plausible-worst-case assumptions regarding the behavior of other road-users, thereby enabling assertive, human-like driving while rigorously respecting the boundary between safe driving decisions and dangerous, risk-inducing ones.
True Redundancy™: Our Unique Sensor Fusion Architecture
Our unique architecture design, called True Redundancy™, further enhances the robustness and safety of our self-driving system. Rather than fusing all different sensor modalities prior to creating an “environment model” of the world, we are developing two independent perception sub systems. One subsystem is powered solely by cameras and the other is powered by active sensors (radars and LiDARs).
A byproduct of our True Redundancy™ architecture is enabling subsystems of our AV development to “scale down” to ADAS, thus creating a seamless and scalable solution portfolio from ADAS to autonomous driving. For example, our Premium Driver Assist offering, Mobileye SuperVision™, recently launched by Geely Group for its Zeekr premium electric vehicle brand, is a productization of the camera-only subsystem of our autonomous driving development, offering fully operational point-to-point assisted driving navigation.
We are designing a first-of-its-kind “software-defined” imaging radar with a dynamic range and resolution backed by advanced processing algorithms to enable an independent “sensing state.” We believe our custom designed imaging radars will allow us to eliminate the need for multiple high-cost LiDARs around the vehicle and require only a single front-facing LiDAR, thereby significantly lowering the overall cost of the required sensors compared to other solutions that use LiDAR-centric or LiDAR-only systems.
In January 2022, we announced a design win of our consumer AV system, Mobileye Chauffeur™, with Zeekr. Consumer AV ranges from very limited operational design domain (e.g., low-speed, highway-only
 
4

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
“traffic jam pilot” systems) to the much more expansive operational design domain that we are pursuing through our Mobileye Chauffeur™ solution. Mobileye Chauffeur™ is expected to be capable of “eyes-off/hands-free” driving with a human driver still in the driver’s seat, in a gradually expanding operational driving domain, and is expected to use surrounding imaging radars and front-facing LiDAR but may require driver intervention in certain situations.
Building upon Mobileye Chauffeur™, which targets the consumer-owned AV market, we are developing Mobileye Drive™, our Level 4 self-driving system targeted for fleet-owned AMaaS and goods delivery networks. We believe we are well positioned to commercialize these opportunities and that our scale, cost, and regulatory validation advantages will become evident to the broader market and lead to significant additional opportunities to grow these services globally.
The Autonomous Vehicle Revolution
We believe that the availability of AVs will cause a significant transformation in mobility, including vehicle ownership and utilization. We expect that AV technology will eventually be accessed by consumers through shared-vehicle AMaaS networks, as well as in consumer-owned and operated AVs. It is our view that, to reach the full potential of autonomous driving over the long-term, the technology solutions that enable these separate markets should converge over time, and that is reflected in our strategy.
Autonomous driving has the potential to dramatically increase the proliferation of shared mobility, creating greater utilization of what is currently a significantly underutilized asset: the car. We believe that this model will ultimately manifest itself in the form of networks operated by a variety of different automotive and technology companies where the consumer will be able to hail on-demand transportation at the click of a button, instead of owning a vehicle. As autonomous driving technology advances, a number of new transportation use cases are expected to emerge around the type of vehicle ownership, what is transported, and where and when the vehicle can operate.
Challenges to Making Autonomous Vehicles Ubiquitous
To make autonomous vehicles at scale a reality, we believe that there are three core challenges that must be addressed:

Regulatory Endorsement — Autonomous driving solutions must be architected, by design, to be verifiably safe, in a manner that fosters broad societal and regulatory endorsement.

Geographic Scale — Geographic scale refers to the challenge of creating high-definition maps with great detail and accuracy, and keeping those maps continuously updated, which is crucial for series production AVs.

Cost — In order for autonomous driving consumer vehicles to scale in volume, we believe the cost of the self-driving system needs to be reduced significantly, such as to several thousands of dollars, an order of magnitude lower than the cost of market solutions to date.
Our Solutions
We are building a robust portfolio of end-to-end ADAS and autonomous driving solutions to provide the capabilities needed for the future of autonomous driving, leveraging a comprehensive suite of purpose-built software and hardware technologies. We pioneered “base” ADAS features to meet global regulatory requirements and safety ratings with our Driver Assist solution and we have since created a new category of ADAS with our Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist and Premium Driver Assist offerings. Additionally, by leveraging Mobileye SuperVision’s™ full-surround computer vision and True Redundancy™, we are developing Mobileye Chauffeur™, our consumer AV solution with a human driver still in the driver’s seat that may require driver intervention in certain situations, and Mobileye Drive™, our Level 4 autonomous driving solution. Together with Moovit’s urban mobility and transit application and its global user base, we are developing our own AMaaS offering for consumers built upon Mobileye Drive™.

Driver Assist.   Base Driver Assist functions are foundational to our spectrum of ADAS and AV solutions and include critical safety features such as real-time detection of road users, geometry, semantics, and markings to provide safety alerts and emergency interventions.

Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist.   Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist provides drivers with high-accuracy interpretations of a scene in real-time utilizing centimeter-level drivable path accuracy, foresight of the path ahead, and other semantic information provided by our crowdsourced REM™ mapping system.

Mobileye SuperVision™.   Mobileye SuperVision™, our Premium Driver Assist offering, is a fully operational point-to-point assisted driving navigation solution and includes cloud-based enhancements such as REM™ and supports over-the-air (“OTA”) updates.

Mobileye Chauffeur™.   Mobileye Chauffeur’s™ first generation solution will be based on six EyeQ®5 High SoCs, and the next generation will be powered by one EyeQ Ultra™, our AV-on-Chip. It will combine our leading computer vision camera-based perception subsystem with a radar-LiDAR subsystem. Mobileye Chauffeur™ will provide 360-degrees of coverage through two independent and redundant sensing subsystems offering True Redundancy™ to reduce the validation burden and, along with REM™ AV maps and RSS, to increase scalability and safety.

Mobileye Drive™.   Mobileye Drive™, our Level 4 solution, will encompass our core autonomous driving technologies found in Mobileye Chauffeur™ and will deliver the driving functions without the need for any in-vehicle human intervention by adding teleoperability and by minimizing cases where human input would be required.
Mobileye Drive™ may be offered across two increasingly vertically integrated product sets, each underpinned by our full set of autonomous driving technology solutions:

Self-Driving System & Vehicles.   We expect to sell our Mobileye Drive™ Level 4 self-driving system through business-to-business channels into a range of transportation network operators and vehicle OEMs, which would operate a variety of services (e.g., consumer-facing AMaaS, transportation on demand, and the delivery of goods).

AMaaS.   Additionally, Mobileye Drive™ will be designed to interface with Moovit’s mobility-as-a-service (“MaaS”) platform, which adds a service layer and a ready-made user base. Moovit's global user base will provide a ready consumer base for our business-to-business customers. It also will provide the necessary service and user-base layer within our own AMaaS solution where we plan to deploy Mobileye-Drive-enabled self-driving vehicles in partnership with fleet operators.
Overall, we believe our proprietary set of software and hardware technology solutions results in significant competitive advantages and a wider range of potential offerings compared to other approaches by industry participants attempting to commercialize network-deployed autonomous vehicles.
Our Data Driven Network Effect
We have assembled a substantial dataset of real-world driving experience, encompassing over 200 petabytes of data, which includes over 23 million clips collected over decades of driving on urban, highway, and arterial roads in over 80 countries. This data, plus proprietary search tools, enables us to develop and continuously improve our advanced computer vision algorithms to fit road scenarios and use cases that our system encounters. We utilize up to approximately 500,000 cloud CPU cores to process approximately 100 petabytes of data every month. We have developed sophisticated 2D and 3D automatic-labeling methodologies that, together with a team of over 2,300 external specialized annotators, allow for fast development cycles for our computer vision engines based on the dataset we have. In addition, our advanced data labeling infrastructure and data mining tools can unlock significant data-driven insights.
Additionally, we have created a separate dataset of 4.3 billion miles of roads driven as of April 2, 2022 from, based on our estimates, approximately 1.5 million REM™-enabled vehicles worldwide. We then apply a series of on-cloud algorithms to build this crowd-sourced data into a high-definition, rapidly updating map that contains a rich variety of information, including road geometry, drivable paths, common speeds, right-of-way, and traffic light-to-lane associations.
These two datasets create powerful network effects as we seek to continually improve our solutions as more vehicles are deployed with our technology.

Our Competitive Strengths
We believe that our leadership in ADAS and autonomous driving is based primarily on our: (1) first-mover advantage; (2) technology, including differentiated technological cores and solution architectures; (3) comprehensive portfolio of solutions; (4) delivery, including agility, response times, and time-to-market; and (5) inherent cost-driven advantages. These significant advantages form the basis for our competitive strengths as follows:

Coupling of software and hardware delivers optimized performance and efficiency — We design our own purpose-built SoCs and develop a software stack to optimally match the architecture of the SoCs with the computational workloads required by the software stack. Our approach results in low power consumption and lean compute, yet is able to support a very powerful range of solutions for the ADAS and AV markets.

Scalable EyeQ® SoC design addresses the entire spectrum of ADAS and autonomous driving — Our EyeQ® architecture is highly scalable, powers our solutions, ranging from our base ADAS to highly advanced autonomous driving solutions and is designed to support the increasingly computationally intensive demands of ADAS and autonomous driving solutions on the same architecture.

EyeQ Kit™ for developing and deploying differentiated features on top of EyeQ® SoC — Our platform is modular by design, and it is highly customizable, which allows our customers to benefit from our cutting-edge, verified, and validated core ADAS capabilities while enabling our customers to augment and differentiate their offerings. We believe EyeQ Kit™ accelerates time to market for our customers at a lower cost than alternative in-house solutions while strengthening our partnerships by encouraging our customers to customize their offerings on top of our platform.

Industry leading computer vision capabilities — We are a technology leader for computer vision solutions for ADAS, and we have continuously enhanced our leadership position since we launched with customers in 2007 through our ability to meet the extreme performance, accuracy, and cost metrics of our OEM customers.

“Scale by design” approach — Our technology platform is built to deliver autonomous driving solutions at scale by leveraging our REM™ mapping technology, our True Redundancy™ approach, our RSS and driving policy, and our active sensor architecture based on our imaging radars.

Autonomous driving-ADAS synergies The autonomous driving-ADAS interplay is bi-directional: advanced technologies transfer from autonomous driving to ADAS and significantly enhance our market proposition, and in turn, these advanced autonomous driving technologies are validated in commercial, mass market ADAS deployments and contribute to the process of verifying and validating the various elements of our autonomous driving solution stack.

Road Experience Management creates a powerful network effect and long-term competitive advantage — Our REM™ system is a crucial ingredient that we believe allows for: (1) defining a new category of cloud-enhanced ADAS that we call Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist; (2) evolving ADAS to an “eyes-on/hands-free” point-to-point assisted driving navigation; and (3) the scale deployment of AV. REM™ benefits from a powerful network effect, where more vehicles with REM™ enabled technology from which we are able to collect and process data, not only improves our own solutions, but also delivers benefits to our customers and to consumers through greater safety and expanded functionality. We believe this network effect creates a powerful competitive advantage, particularly given our leadership position in ADAS, as we are able to efficiently collect large amounts of data from our consumer solutions already deployed on roads globally through their regular use.

Data and technology advantage — We have assembled a substantial dataset of real-world driving experience, encompassing over 200 petabytes of data, which includes over 23 million clips collected over decades of driving on urban, highway, and arterial roads in over 80 countries. We utilize up to approximately 500,000 cloud CPU cores to process approximately 100 petabytes of data every month, which we believe demonstrates the size and scale of our data repository. Our dataset creates a powerful network effect as we seek to continually improve our solutions as more vehicles are deployed with our technology.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 

RSS and driving policy are designed for global deployment — RSS is the key enabler of our “lean compute” driving policy design, where we distinctly separate driving comfort features from safety-related inhibitions and adjustments. Our RSS-based driving policy is designed for global deployment, as it does not need to be tailored to specific driving cultures.

Purpose-built imaging-radar unlocks consumer AV at scale — We are developing software-defined imaging-radar with cutting-edge dynamic range and resolution. Our differentiated True Redundancy™ architecture will leverage our imaging-radar, which we believe will give us the ability to significantly reduce the cost of the overall sensor suite by replacing multiple, expensive LiDARs around the vehicle with only a single front-facing LiDAR sensor, which we believe will support consumer AV production at scale.

Moovit provides a stand-ready user base for our AMaaS solutions — Moovit is our urban mobility and transit application. As of April 2, 2022, Moovit had over 1.4 billion users globally and service in over 3,500 cities across 112 countries, and was generating approximately six billion anonymous data points daily, tracking mobility demand patterns globally, enabling a key mobility intelligence layer that can be used to intelligently predict ride demand and thus help to optimize fleet utilization.

Deep, collaborative ecosystem relationships Our deep global relationships with key partners across the value chain, from component suppliers, through Tier 1 customers and up to OEMs, offer us a broad and diverse set of collaboration opportunities for high-performance computing, networking, and advanced packaging technologies, among others, from the vehicle to the cloud.
Our Growth Strategies
Key levers of our growth strategy are:

Benefit from regulatory and safety rating changes promoting base ADAS — We intend to continue to lead and deliver upon global regulatory and safety requirements for base ADAS features by maintaining and enhancing our vision only solution.

Capitalize on Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist features — We have pioneered a cloud-enhanced ADAS solution, which offers customers using advanced EyeQ® versions (EyeQ®4 and above) a significant value through our REM™ technology. In the future, we plan to create revenue streams from our OTA capabilities and AV maps through solution upgrades.

Further enhance our Premium Driver Assist solution — Our Mobileye SuperVision™ solution represents a comprehensive “eyes-on/hands-free” ADAS solution. We believe that the high value-add, our continuous efforts to add capabilities, as well as the competitive price point of Mobileye SuperVision™ will allow it to gain strong market traction in the coming years.

Innovate and commercialize our next-generation autonomous driving solutions — Propelled by our next generation AV-on-Chip SoC, which we call EyeQ Ultra™, our surround computer vision Mobileye SuperVision™ solution, and our True Redundancy™ architecture, we believe that we will be positioned to deliver an autonomous driving solution that can enable the mass adoption of AV. We believe our premium ADAS capabilities with our Mobileye SuperVision™ solution and Level 4 capabilities with Mobileye Drive™ will help us provide our customers with innovative solutions and enable further growth for us.

Utilize our flexible platform to expand our collaboration with our OEM customers — We have designed our EyeQ® SoCs together with an EyeQ Kit™ to enable co-hosting of third-party software and customer workloads on vehicles equipped with our solutions. We plan to continue to develop our platform to offer our customers the ability to seamlessly address the capabilities and features that they demand by customizing their offerings on top of our platform. We are partnering with leading technology suppliers to expand our products by offering features and services alongside our core technology platform.

Capitalize on our active sensor technology — We intend to continue to develop and commercialize next-generation active sensors such as software-defined imaging radars, which leverage our AI capabilities.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Together with Intel, we also are currently in the early stages of development of frequency-modulated continuous wave (“FMCW”) LiDAR, which has the potential to replace alternative third-party LiDAR to further enhance the performance of our sensor suite.

Accelerate our roadmap of next generation proprietary EyeQ® SoCs — Our EyeQ® SoCs are purpose-built for sensing and perception technologies and optimized for high throughput and power efficiency. Our architecture is highly scalable and is designed to support the increasing and computationally intensive demands of both the continued evolution of ADAS and future autonomous driving applications. We intend to continue to accelerate our technology leadership with a focus on silicon, packaging, and systems level needs to deliver cost-efficient processing at the edge.

Utilize our substantial and growing dataset to continuously improve the intelligence and robustness of our solutions — We will continue to grow the depth and breadth of our substantial dataset, which, as of April 2, 2022, encompassed over 200 petabytes of data and 4.3 billion miles of AV mapped roads from, based on our estimates, approximately 1.5 million REM™-enabled vehicles worldwide. We believe that our ability to use this data to create, maintain, and improve our high-precision AV maps through our REM™ mapping system will enable us to further improve our ADAS offerings and position us well for autonomous driving.

Establish our Level 4 autonomous and AMaaS solutions — We believe that Mobileye Chauffeur™ and Mobileye Drive™ will unlock new use cases and end-consumers for our OEM and fleet-owner customers, which will be applicable for both the AMaaS and consumer AV markets. We expect to add additional cities to our AMaaS offerings to showcase our industry-leading technology and to help accelerate the pace of AV adoption.

Benefit from opportunities in large emerging markets — We intend to continue to invest in partnerships in China and India, among other emerging markets, to accelerate ADAS and autonomous driving adoption. We believe our long-term partnerships with large Chinese OEMs such as Geely, Great Wall Motors, and SAIC, and Indian OEMs such as Mahindra & Mahindra position our solutions at the forefront of continued innovation and market growth.

If any of the following risks or uncertainties actually occur, our business, financial condition, prospects, results of operations, and cash flow could be materially and adversely affected. In that case, the market price of our Class A common stock could decline and you may lose all or a part of your investment. The risks discussed below are not the only risks we face. Additional risks or uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, may also have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, prospects, results of operations, or cash flows. We cannot assure you that any of the events discussed in the risk factors below will not occur.
Risks Related to Our Business
If we are unable to develop and introduce new solutions and improve existing solutions in a cost-effective and timely manner, then our competitive position would be negatively impacted and our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.
Our business, results of operations, and financial condition depend on our ability to complete development of our existing ADAS and autonomous driving programs and to develop and introduce new and enhanced solutions that incorporate and integrate the latest technological advancements in sensing and perception technologies, software and hardware, and camera, radar, LiDAR, mapping, and AI technologies to satisfy evolving customer, regulatory, and safety rating requirements. For example, we will need to complete the development and achieve cost efficient production at scale of new generations of our EyeQ® SoCs and our software-defined radar, and source LiDAR cost effectively, which could include the development of our FMCW LiDAR, all of which are important components of our planned approach to address the AMaaS and consumer AV markets. This prospectus contains descriptions of our current expectations regarding the years by which we expect to obtain engineering samples, commence production, or release our anticipated future solutions. These time periods are subject to significant uncertainty. We may encounter significant unexpected technical and production challenges, or delays in completing the development of these and other solutions and ramping production in a cost-efficient manner. The development of these and other new and enhanced solutions requires us to invest resources in research and development and also requires that we:

design innovative, accurate, and safety- and comfort-enhancing functions that differentiate our solutions from those of our competitors;

continuously improve the reliability of, and reduce and ultimately remove the requirement for human intervention with, our autonomous driving technology;

cooperate effectively on new designs and development with our customers, suppliers and partners;

respond effectively to technological changes and product announcements by our competitors; and

adjust to changing customer requirements, market conditions, and regulatory and rating standards quickly and cost-effectively.
If there are delays in, or if we fail to complete when expected or at all, our existing and new development programs, we may not be able to satisfy our customers’ requirements, achieve additional design wins with existing or new customers, or achieve broader market acceptance of our solutions, and our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.
We invest significantly in research and development, and to the extent our research and development efforts are unsuccessful, our competitive position would be negatively impacted and our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.
To compete successfully, we must maintain successful research and development efforts, develop new solutions, and improve our existing solutions, all ahead of competitors. We are focusing our research and development efforts across several key emerging technologies, including computer vision, software-defined radar and FMCW LiDAR, the True Redundancy sensor fusion architecture, the REM mapping technology and our RSS model, and the Mobileye SuperVision, Mobileye Drive and Mobileye

Chauffeur systems. These are ambitious initiatives, and we cannot guarantee that all of these efforts will deliver the benefits we anticipate or be homologated as expected. We must make research and development investments based on our views of the most promising approaches to address future customer needs in rapidly evolving markets, and we cannot be certain that we will target out research and development investments appropriately, or correctly anticipate the manner in which these markets will evolve. To the extent our research and development efforts do not produce timely improvements in utility, accuracy, safety, cost and operational efficiency, our competitive position will be harmed. We do not expect all of our research and development investments to be successful. Some of our efforts to develop and market new solutions may fail, and the solutions we invest in and develop may be rejected by regulators or may not be well received by customers, who may adopt competing technologies. We make significant investments in research and development, and our investments at times may not contribute to our future operating results for several years, if at all, and such contributions at times may not meet our expectations or even cover the costs of such investments, which would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We operate in a highly competitive market.
The ADAS and autonomous driving industries are highly competitive, and we expect they will become even more competitive in the future. Our future success will depend on, among other things, our ability to continue developing superior advanced technology to remain competitive with our existing and any new competitors. Competition is based on, among other things, cost efficiency, reliability, the ability to develop and deploy increasingly complex technologies that provide for vehicle, passenger, and pedestrian safety in compliance with existing and future regulations, the ability to gather or access large validation datasets in order to train the required software and to continuously harvest new data in real-time, the ability to cost-effectively deploy hardware, the ability to integrate technologies and hardware with overall vehicle design and production, adoption by OEMs, and the ability to develop and maintain strategic relationships with other participants in the automotive industry.
A significant and growing number of established and new technology companies and automobile manufacturers have entered, or are reported to have plans to enter, the market for ADAS and autonomous driving solutions. For example, certain of our competitors have announced that they are operating autonomous robotaxis. Some of our competitors have significantly greater or better-established resources than we do to devote to the design, development, manufacturing, distribution, promotion, sale, and support of their products. Automakers who seek to develop their own in-house solutions may also become indirect competitors. Some OEMs that have incorporated our solutions in the past have decided, and some OEMs that currently incorporate our solutions may decide to design in-house solutions to replace our solutions that they currently implement. For example, Tesla had previously incorporated our ADAS solutions in their vehicles but transitioned to their own in-house ADAS solutions. Mercedes-Benz is also employing its own in-house solutions, with others such as General Motors, NIO, Volvo Cars, and Xpeng Motors also pursuing in-house solutions for portions of the ADAS software stack. In addition, our Tier 1 customers may be developing or may in the future develop competing solutions.
Tier 1 automotive supplier competitors include Bosch, Continental, and Denso. Our competitors in the silicon provider category include Ambarella, Advanced Micro Devices, Arriver / Qualcomm, Black Sesame Technologies, Horizon Robotics, Huawei, NVIDIA, NXP, Renesas Electronics, and Texas Instruments. Additional competitors that could emerge include large technology companies that are resource rich and able to deploy such resources to compete, as well as companies that are able to develop products that may not require the massive datasets upon which our technologies currently rely while still achieving the same effectiveness of algorithms.
In the autonomous driving market, including AMaaS and consumer AV, we face competition from technology companies, internal development teams from the automakers themselves, sometimes in combination with investments in early-stage autonomous vehicle technology companies, Tier 1 automotive suppliers, and robotaxi providers. AMaaS competitors include Argo AI, Aurora, Cruise, Motional, Pony.ai, Waymo, Yandex, and Zoox in the United States and Europe and Auto X, Baidu, Deeproute.ai, Didi Chuxing, Momenta, and WeRide in China. Consumer AV competitors include Apple, Sony, and Tesla, who are developing self-driving vehicles for consumers.

See “Business — Our Competition.”
We have experienced and are continuing to experience constraints in the supply of our EyeQ® SoCs as the result of the global semiconductor shortage, and future shortages in the supply of our EyeQ® SoCs or other critical parts would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
The semiconductor industry is experiencing widespread shortages of substrates and other components and available foundry manufacturing capacity, and we anticipate that such shortages will continue. These factors, combined with the long lead times associated with wafer production, have contributed to a shortage of semiconductors. During 2021, STMicroelectronics N.V. (“STMicroelectronics”), our sole supplier of EyeQ® SoCs, was not able to meet our demand for EyeQ® SoCs, causing a significant reduction in our inventory level, and we expect we will continue to experience a shortfall of chips during 2022, which may cause a delay in our ability to fulfill our customers’ orders. As we have entered 2022 with significantly lower inventories of our EyeQ® SoCs as a result of the limited supply during 2021, we may be unable to offset future supply constraints through the use of inventory on hand and, without a solution to the shortages, may have insufficient inventory in subsequent fiscal years. Since our EyeQ® SoC is the core of our ADAS and autonomous driving solutions, continued shortages in the supply of sufficient EyeQ® SoCs to meet our production needs would impair our ability to meet our customers’ requirements in a timely manner, and would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Moreover, to the extent that the global semiconductor shortage results in reduced production or production delays by automakers, those delays could result in reduced or delayed demand for our solutions. In addition, issues relating to the COVID-19 pandemic have led to port congestion and intermittent supplier shutdowns and delays in the delivery of critical components, resulting in additional expenses to expedite delivery of critical parts. Sustaining the proliferation of our solutions will require the readiness and solvency of our suppliers and vendors, a stable and motivated workforce, and ongoing government cooperation, including for travel and visa allowances, which many governments have restricted in connection with efforts to address the COVID-19 pandemic. In the future, to avoid supply chain constraints, we may build up inventories of EyeQ® SoCs which could require substantial amounts of capital. Furthermore, accumulating such inventories may expose us to risks regarding the obsolescence of such chips.
We depend on STMicroelectronics to manufacture our EyeQ® SoCs.
We currently purchase all of our EyeQ® SoCs from STMicroelectronics. Because of the complex proprietary nature of our EyeQ® SoCs, any transition from STMicroelectronics to a new supplier or, if there were a disaster at any of STMicroelectronics’ facilities involved in manufacturing our EyeQ® SoCs, bringing new facilities online, would take a significant period of time to complete and would likely result in our having insufficient inventory and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. In addition, our contractual relationship with STMicroelectronics does not provide us with long-term pricing or quantity guarantees, and both we and STMicroelectronics are free to terminate the arrangement at any time. Further, we are vulnerable to the risk that STMicroelectronics may be unable to meet demand for our EyeQ® SoCs or cease operations altogether. Moreover, STMicroelectronics depends on Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (“TSMC”) as its subcontractor to manufacture our EyeQ® SoCs, and as a result, we are also vulnerable to the risk that TSMC may be unable to meet demand or cease operations altogether. In addition, we may be affected by supply constraints involving STMicroelectronics and TSMC resulting from the global semiconductor shortage. See “— We have experienced and are continuing to experience constraints in the supply of our EyeQ® SoCs as the result of the global semiconductor shortage, and future shortages in the supply of our EyeQ® SoCs or other critical parts would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.”
TSMC is located in Taiwan, and our ability to receive sufficient supplies of our EyeQ® SoCs could be adversely affected by events such as natural disasters in Taiwan, including earthquakes, drought and

typhoons, the escalations of tensions between the People’s Republic of China and Taiwan, political unrest, trade restrictions, or war.
We face additional supply chain risks and risks of interruption of requisite services, including, as a result of our reliance on a single or limited suppliers and vendors, for certain components, equipment, and services.
A large number of suppliers and vendors provide materials, equipment, and services that are used in the production of our solutions and other aspects of our business. Where possible, we seek to have several sources of supply. However, for certain materials, equipment, and services, we rely on a single or a limited number of direct and indirect suppliers and vendors, or upon direct and indirect suppliers and vendors in a single location. In addition, direct and indirect supplier and vendor consolidation or business failures can impact the nature, quality, availability, and pricing of the products and services available to us. For example, we currently depend on Amazon Web Services for cloud services in connection with our REM mapping system, Roadbook, and AMaaS solutions including the Moovit platform, and a failure of such cloud services would result in interruptions to our services. In addition, the semiconductor industry is experiencing widespread shortages of substrates. See “— We have experienced and are continuing to experience constraints in the supply of our EyeQ® SoCs as the result of the global semiconductor shortage, and future shortages in the supply of our EyeQ® SoCs or other critical parts would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition” and “— We depend on STMicroelectronics to manufacture our EyeQ® SoCs.”
Finding and qualifying alternate or additional suppliers and vendors is often a lengthy process and can lead to production delays, interruptions to our services, or additional costs, and such alternatives are sometimes not available at all. The inability of suppliers or vendors to deliver necessary production materials, equipment, or services can disrupt the production processes of our solutions and make it more difficult for us to implement our business strategy. Suppliers and vendors periodically extend lead times, face capacity constraints, limit supplies, increase prices, experience quality issues, or encounter cybersecurity or other issues that can interrupt or increase the cost of our supply and services. Production of our solutions can be disrupted by the unavailability of resources, such as water, silicon, electricity, gases, and other materials. The unavailability or reduced availability of materials or resources would require us to reduce production or incur additional costs, which would harm our business and results of operations.
We also rely on third-party providers to manufacture, assemble, and test certain components and products. From time to time, these third parties are unable to perform these services on a timely or cost-effective basis, in sufficient volumes, or at all. In some cases, there are limited or no readily available satisfactory alternate providers. In any of these circumstances, we can encounter supply delays or disruptions or incur additional costs that could prevent us from meeting customer demand and/or adversely affect our business and financial results. We typically have less control over delivery schedules, design and manufacturing co-optimization, manufacturing yields, quality, product quantities, and costs for components and products that are manufactured or supplied by third parties. Delays or quality issues with one component could limit our ability to manufacture the entire completed product.
Moreover, increased regulation or stakeholder expectations regarding responsible sourcing practices could cause our compliance costs to increase, or result in publicity that negatively affects our reputation. Moreover, given that we use several materials and services and rely on several suppliers and vendors, but do not directly control the procurement or employment practices of such suppliers and vendors, we could be subject to financial or reputational risks as a result of our suppliers’ and vendors’ conduct. To the extent we are unable to manage these risks, our ability to timely supply competitive solutions will be harmed, our costs will increase, and our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.
Increases in costs of the materials and other components that we use in our solutions would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Significant changes in the markets in which we purchase materials, components, and supplies for the production of our solutions may adversely affect our profitability. Our contractual relationship with STMicroelectronics, our sole supplier of EyeQ® SoCs, and with other suppliers, does not provide us with long-term pricing or quantity guarantees. As a result of the global semiconductor shortage, we have
 
22

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
experienced increases in the cost of our EyeQ® SoCs. While we are working to enhance production efficiencies in order to maintain or increase our gross margin on existing products, there can be no guarantee such efforts will be successful. Although we seek to adjust the prices charged to our customers to offset these cost increases, competitive and market pressures may limit our ability to do so. Even where we are able to achieve price increases that would offset such increased costs, in some cases there may be a delay before we are able to do so. The inability to pass on price increases to our customers when raw material or component prices increase rapidly or are significantly higher than historic levels would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
In addition, the prices of our solutions depend on the bundle of applications that are included in the specific product, and our prices vary significantly across our solutions. Our solutions have different margin profiles, which vary between solutions depending on the amount, number, and type of components that we deliver. If we fail to maintain our solutions mix or maintain our gross margin and operating margin, our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.
Our business may suffer from claims relating to, among other things, actual or alleged defects in our solutions, or if our solutions actually or allegedly fail to perform as expected, and publicity related to these claims could harm our reputation and decrease demand for our solutions or increase regulatory scrutiny of our solutions.
Our software and hardware, including our EyeQ® SoCs, are complex and could have, or could be alleged to have, defects in design or manufacturing, security vulnerabilities or other errors, suffer failures, or may not function in accordance with their specifications or as expected. Some errors or defects in our solutions may initially be undetected and only be discovered after they have been tested, commercialized, and deployed by customers. Alleged or actual defects in any of our solutions would result in adverse publicity, warranty claims, litigation against us, legal expenses and damages, our customers never being able to commercialize technology incorporating our solutions, negative publicity, and other consequences. Errors, defects, or security vulnerabilities could result in serious injury to or death of the end users of vehicles incorporating our solutions, or those in the surrounding area, including as a result of traffic accidents and collisions. If that is the case, we would incur significant additional development costs and product recall, repair, or replacement costs.
If any of our solutions are or are alleged to be defective, we may be required to participate in a recall involving such solutions. Each vehicle manufacturer has its own practices regarding product recalls and other product liability actions relating to its suppliers. However, as suppliers become more integrally involved in the vehicle design process, OEMs may look to their direct and indirect suppliers for contribution when faced with recalls and product liability claims. OEMs also require their suppliers to guarantee or warrant their products and bear the costs of repair and replacement of such products under new vehicle warranties. Depending on the terms under which we supply products to a Tier 1 customer or OEM, a vehicle manufacturer may attempt to hold us responsible for some or all of the repair or replacement costs of defective products under new vehicle warranties when the OEM asserts that the solution supplied did not perform as warranted. Our potential liability may increase to the extent that OEMs increasingly purchase our products directly, as opposed to incorporating our solutions through indirect purchases from our Tier 1 customers. Although we regularly evaluate the level of our reserves for warranty claims and adjust them when appropriate, final amounts determined to be due in respect of warranty claims could differ materially from our recorded estimates. Product liability, warranty, and recall costs would have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. In addition, product liability claims present the risk of protracted litigation, legal fees, and diversion of management’s attention from the operation of our business, even if our defense of these claims is ultimately successful.
While STMicroelectronics is responsible for quality control and procedures for testing and manufacturing our EyeQ® SoCs to our specifications, we retain liability for failure in production caused by defective EyeQ® SoC design or error. Although we use disclaimers, limitations of liability, and similar provisions in our agreements, there is no assurance that any or all of these provisions will prove to be effective barriers to product liability claims. In addition, although we are currently covered by Intel’s product liability insurance program, there is no assurance that such insurance will be adequate to cover any or all of our potential losses as a result of large deductibles and broad exclusions. Intel may also discontinue our insurance coverage, and we may be unable to find replacement insurance on acceptable terms, or at all.

Furthermore, the automotive industry in general is subject to significant litigation claims due to the potentially severe consequences of traffic collisions or other accidents. As a provider of solutions related to, among other things, preventing traffic collisions and other accidents, we could be subject to litigation for traffic collisions or other accidents, even if our solutions or their features or the failure thereof did not cause any particular traffic collision or accident. Our technology has been involved, and we expect in the future will be involved, in accidents resulting in death or personal injury, and such accidents where our solutions or their features are involved may be the subject of significant public attention. There also remains significant uncertainty in the legal implications to providers of emerging ADAS and autonomous driving technologies of traffic collisions or other accidents involving such technologies, particularly given variations in legal and regulatory regimes that are emerging in different jurisdictions, and we may become liable for losses that exceed the current industry norms as the regulatory and legal landscape develops. In addition, because ADAS and autonomous driving technologies rely on products and services provided by third parties, there is the potential that the failure of such third-party products or services that affect the performance of EyeQ® SoCs, notwithstanding the absence of any defect in design or manufacture or other failure in EyeQ® SoCs themselves, could result in additional claims being made against us.
Publicity regarding claims involving our solutions can also have an adverse effect on our reputation and the reputation for ADAS and autonomous driving solutions, which could decrease consumer demand for vehicles incorporating these technologies. Further, enhanced publicity surrounding such claims may also increase the regulatory scrutiny of our platforms, which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to complete our business plans.
We invest significant effort and money seeking OEM selection of our solutions, and there can be no assurance that these efforts will result in the selection of our solutions for use in production models. If we fail to achieve a design win after incurring substantial expenditures in these efforts, our future business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.
We invest significant effort and money from the time of our initial contact with an OEM to the time when the OEM chooses our technology for ADAS or autonomous driving applications to be incorporated into one or more specific vehicle models to be produced by the OEM. This selection process is known as a “design win.” We could expend significant resources pursuing, but fail to achieve, a design win. After a design win, it is typically difficult for a product or technology that did not receive the design win to displace the winner until the OEM issues a new request for quotation because an OEM will generally not change complex technology already integrated in its systems until a vehicle model is revamped. In addition, the firm with the winning design may have an advantage with the OEM going forward because of the established relationship between the winning firm and the OEM, which would make it more difficult for that firm’s competitors to win the designs for other production models. If we fail to win a significant number of OEM design competitions in the future, then our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.
There is no guarantee that our customers will purchase our solutions in any certain quantity or at any certain price even after we achieve design wins, and there may be significant delays between the time we achieve a design win until we realize revenue from the vehicle model.
We generally do not have contracts with customers that require them to purchase our solutions in any certain quantity or at any certain price, and our sales could be less than we forecast if a vehicle model for which we achieved a design win is unsuccessful, including for reasons unrelated to our solutions, if an OEM decides to discontinue or reduce production of a vehicle model or of the use of our solutions in a vehicle model, or if we face downward pricing pressure. As a result, achieving design wins is not a guarantee of revenue, and our sales may not correlate with the achievement of additional design wins. Moreover, pricing estimates are made at the time of a request for quotation by an OEM, so that worsening market or other conditions between the time of a request for quotation and an order for our solutions may require us to sell our solutions for a lower price than we initially expected. Due to the recent global material shortage, we have been working with our customers to ensure they commit to certain volumes in order to secure quantities. However, we have not committed to supply such volumes and the volumes we supply will depend upon market conditions. We may also face pricing pressures from our customers as a result of their restructuring, consolidation, and cost-cutting initiatives or as a result of increased competition. As a
 
24

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
particular solution matures and unit volumes increase, we also generally expect its average selling price (“ASP”) to decline. In addition, there are generally step-downs in pricing over periods of production as volumes ramp up. If we are unable to generate sufficient production cost savings or introduce solutions with additional features and functionality at higher price points to offset price reductions, then our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.
Furthermore, our solutions are technologically complex, incorporate many technological innovations, and are typically subject to significant safety testing, and OEMs generally must make significant commitments of resources to test and validate our solutions before including them in any particular vehicle model. The integration cycles of our solutions with new OEMs are approximately one to three years after a design win, depending on the OEM and the complexity of the solution. These integration cycles result in our investment of resources prior to realizing any revenue from a vehicle model. An OEM may choose to cancel production of the vehicle model for which we achieved the design win or cancel or postpone the vehicle model. Our ADAS and autonomous driving solutions control various vehicle functions including engine, transmission, safety, steering, navigation, acceleration, and braking and therefore must be integrated effectively with the other systems of the vehicle developed by the OEM, our Tier 1 customers, and other suppliers, and we may be unable to achieve the requisite level of interoperability in a vehicle model for our solutions to be implemented even after a design win.
In connection with our design wins, we typically receive preliminary estimates from OEMs of their anticipated production volumes for the models relating to those design wins, and we have included information in this prospectus relating to the aggregate vehicles represented by certain of those estimates. Those estimates may be revised significantly by the OEMs, potentially multiple times, and may not be representative of future production volumes associated with those design wins, which could be significantly higher or lower than estimated. In addition, long development cycles or vehicle model cancellations or postponements would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We depend on a limited number of Tier 1 customers and OEMs for a substantial portion of our revenue, and the loss of, or a significant reduction in sales to, one or more of our major Tier 1 customers and/or the discontinued incorporation of our solutions by one or more major OEMs in their vehicle models would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We supply OEMs with the EyeQ® platform directly or through our arrangements with automotive system integrators, known as Tier 1 automotive suppliers, which are direct suppliers to OEMs. In 2021, our three largest Tier 1 customers, who were ZF, Valeo, and Aptiv, accounted for 35%, 19%, and 17%, respectively, of our revenue. For the three months ended April 2, 2022, our three largest Tier 1 customers, who were ZF, Aptiv, and Valeo, accounted for 51%, 17%, and 8%, respectively, of our revenue. Moreover, in 2021, 14%, 12%, 12%, and 12% of our revenue was derived from the incorporation of our solutions into the vehicle models of four OEMs and a total of 78% of our revenue was derived from the incorporation of our solutions into the vehicle models of eight OEMs (including those four) through our Tier 1 customers. In the three months ended April 2, 2022, 15%, 13%, 12%, and 12% of our revenue was derived from the incorporation of our solutions into the vehicle models of four OEMs and a total of 82% of our revenue was derived from the incorporation of our solutions into the vehicle models of eight OEMs (including those four) through our Tier 1 customers. We have not executed written agreements with these Tier 1 customers but rather provide our solutions to such customers pursuant to standard purchase orders under our general terms and conditions, pursuant to which they are generally not obligated to purchase our solutions in any certain quantity or at any certain price. See “— There is no guarantee that our customers will purchase our solutions in any certain quantity or at any certain price even after we achieve design wins, and there may be significant delays between the time we achieve a design win until we realize revenue from the vehicle model.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, as a result of global shortages, some of our customers, including our top three Tier 1 customers, have committed to purchasing minimum quantities of certain solutions in 2022.
We believe our business, results of operations, and financial condition for the foreseeable future will likely continue to depend on sales to a relatively small number of Tier 1 customers and the incorporation of our solutions by a relatively small number of OEMs in their vehicle models. In the future, our current Tier 1 customers may decide not to purchase our solutions, may purchase fewer of our solutions than they did in

the past, or may alter their purchasing patterns, and OEMs may discontinue incorporation of our solutions in their vehicle models, including as a result of a transition to in-house solutions or solutions provided by our competitors, or their individual or aggregate production levels may decline due to a number of factors, including supply chain challenges and macroeconomic conditions. Further, the amount of revenue attributable to any single Tier 1 customer, or our Tier 1 customer concentration generally, may fluctuate in any given period. The loss of one or more key Tier 1 customers, a reduction in sales to any key Tier 1 customer, the discontinued or decreased incorporation of our solutions by a key OEM, or our inability to attract new significant Tier 1 customers and OEMs would negatively impact our revenue and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
The success of our AMaaS solutions will depend on their effective deployment and operation by third parties.
The success of our AMaaS directed solutions will depend on our customers and partners, such as fleet operators, effectively deploying and operating our solution in the future, and their failure to do so may result from factors outside our control. We are collaborating with various business-to-business and business-to-consumer channels for the purpose of deploying Mobileye Drive. As part of our business-to-business go-to-market strategy, we expect to sell and integrate Mobileye Drive to a range of shuttle network operators and vehicle OEMs that intend to operate consumer-facing AMaaS, transportation on demand, and delivery services. Our current list of publicly announced business-to-business partners is Beep, Benteler, Lohr, Marubeni, RATP Group, Schaeffler, Transdev, Udelv, and Willer. Additionally, as part of our business-to-customer go-to-market strategy, we expect to deploy Mobileye Drive-enabled AMaaS offerings by integrating them with our self-driving vehicles in partnership with fleet operators, such as SIXT. Any failures by third parties to effectively deploy and operate our AMaaS solutions would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Developing RoadBook depends on continued cooperation by OEMs.
The success of our Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist system requires significant amounts of fresh mapping data from series production vehicles around the world in order to develop RoadBook. We currently have agreements in place that provide OEMs with economic benefits or technological advantages to provide us with data arriving from OEM series production vehicles, but there is no guarantee that we can keep such agreements in place or that OEMs will continue to cooperate with us. If we are not able to obtain mapping data for RoadBook, our Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist system will not perform as expected, which would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We are highly dependent on the services of Professor Amnon Shashua, our President and Chief Executive Officer.
We are highly dependent on Professor Shashua, our President and Chief Executive Officer. While Professor Shashua is highly active in our management and allocates a significant amount of time to our company, he does not devote his full time and attention to our company. For example, Professor Shashua is also the Chairman and co-founder of AI21 Labs, which works to use AI to understand and create natural language, the Co-Chairman and co-founder of OrCam, which harnesses computer vision and AI to assist the visually and hearing impaired, the Founder of One Zero Digital Bank, an entirely digital independent bank being developed in Israel, the Chairman and co-founder of Mentee Robotics, which aims to build humanoid robots, and the Sachs Chair in Computer Science at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, where he teaches and supervises graduate students. Professor Shashua may also become involved in additional ventures from time to time. The loss of Professor Shashua, or a significant diminution in his contribution to us, would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
If we are unable to attract, retain, and motivate key employees, then our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.
Hiring and retaining qualified executives, developers, engineers, technical staff, and sales representatives are critical to our business. The competition for highly skilled employees in our industry is increasingly intense. Competitors for technical talent increasingly seek to hire our employees. Changes in the interpretation and application of employment-related laws to our workforce practices may also result in increased

operating costs and less flexibility in how we meet our changing workforce needs. To help attract, retain, and motivate qualified employees, we intend to use employee incentives such as share-based awards. Our employee hiring and retention also depend on our ability to build and maintain a diverse and inclusive workplace culture and be viewed as an employer of choice. If our share-based or other compensation programs and workplace culture cease to be viewed as competitive, our ability to attract, retain, and motivate employees would be weakened, which would harm our results of operations. Equity compensation has been, and will continue to be, an important part of our future compensation strategy and a significant component of our future expenses, which we expect to increase over time. Moreover, sustained declines in our stock price can reduce the retention value of our share-based awards. If we do not effectively hire, onboard, retain, and motivate key employees, then our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.
Changes in our management team can also disrupt our business. Our management and senior leadership team has significant industry experience, and their knowledge and relationships would be difficult to replace. Leadership changes may occur from time to time, and we cannot predict whether significant resignations will occur or whether we will be able to recruit qualified personnel. In addition, the relationships and reputation that members of our management and key leadership have established and maintain with our Tier 1 customers and OEMs contribute to our ability to maintain strong relationships with key partners and to identify new business opportunities.
As part of the Reorganization, we also plan to transfer certain employees relating to the Mobileye business from Intel to us. The failure to successfully transition and assimilate key employees would adversely affect our results of operations.
We face integration risks and costs associated with companies, assets, employees, products, and technologies that we have or that we may acquire, including with our acquisition of Moovit.
We have in the past and, if we are presented with appropriate opportunities, we may in the future acquire or make investments in complementary companies, assets, employees, products, and technologies. We face risks, uncertainties, and disruptions associated with the integration process of any such acquisitions or investments, including difficulties in the integration of the operations of an acquired company, integration of acquired technology with our solutions, diversion of our management’s attention from other business concerns, the potential loss of key employees or customers of the acquired business, and our inability to achieve the strategic goals of such acquisitions and investments. For example, Intel acquired Moovit in May 2020 to accelerate our MaaS offering. On May 31, 2022, we legally acquired the Moovit entities from Intel in connection with this offering, and we may be unable to successfully integrate Moovit’s MaaS platform into our business and may fail to achieve the financial and strategic objectives of the acquisition of Moovit. We have also recently integrated a number of Intel employees to support and accelerate the development of EyeQ Kit. We may fail to make any or satisfactory returns on our acquisition of Moovit or any other investment, acquisition, or integration of employees, which could result in an impairment of goodwill and other assets and restructuring charges. Any failure to successfully integrate other companies, assets, employees, products, or technologies that we have or may acquire will adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Furthermore, we may have to incur debt or issue equity securities to pay for any future acquisitions or investments, the issuance of which could be dilutive to our existing stockholder.
We may need to raise additional capital in the future, which may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all.
A majority of our operating expenses are for research and development activities. Our capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to:

technological advancements;

market acceptance of our solutions and solution enhancements, and the overall level of sales of our solutions;

research and development expenses;

our relationships with our customers and suppliers;

our ability to control costs;

sales and marketing expenses;

enhancements to our infrastructure and systems and any capital improvements to our facilities;

potential acquisitions of businesses and product lines; and

general economic conditions, including the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, inflation, rising interest rates, and international conflicts and their impact on the automotive industry in particular.
If our capital requirements are materially different from those currently planned, we may need additional capital sooner than anticipated. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, our stockholders may be diluted. Additional financing may not be available on favorable terms, on a timely basis, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to continue our operations as planned, develop or enhance our solutions, expand our sales and marketing programs, take advantage of future opportunities, or respond to competitive pressures.
We are affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, including those in connection with recent inflationary trends in the United States.
We are exposed to adverse as well as beneficial movements in currency exchange rates. Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar, and we incur financial expenses in connection with fluctuations in value due to foreign exchange differences between our monetary assets and liabilities denominated in New Israeli Shekels and, to a much lesser extent, the Euro, the Chinese Yuan, the Japanese Yen, and other currencies. Although most of our sales occur in U.S. dollars, and our financial results are reported in U.S. dollars, the vast majority of our payroll and other operating expenses are accrued in New Israeli Shekels. An increase in the value of the dollar will increase the real cost to our customers of our solutions in those markets outside the U.S. where we sell in dollars, and a weakened dollar will increase the cost of expenses such as payroll, utilities, tax, marketing expenses, and capital expenditures. For example, recent inflationary trends in the United States have significantly devalued the U.S. dollar with respect to the New Israeli Shekel and many other currencies, causing a significant increase to our expenses, particularly in Israel. Changes in exchange rates would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Our historical financial information may not be representative of our results as an independent public company.
The historical combined financial information included in this prospectus may not necessarily reflect our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows in the future or what they would have been had we been a separate, stand-alone company during the years presented. Our historical financial data presented in this prospectus includes costs of our business, which may not, however, reflect the expenses we would have incurred as a stand-alone company for the years presented. Actual costs that may have been incurred if we had operated as a stand-alone company would depend on a number of factors, including the chosen organizational structure, the outsourcing of certain functions, and other strategic decisions. Furthermore, although we have provided pro forma financial information that gives effect to the Reorganization, this offering, and the use of net proceeds from this offering, as further described under “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.” The pro forma financial information included in this prospectus is also not representative of our results as an independent public company. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” and our historical combined financial statements and the accompanying notes included elsewhere in this prospectus.
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected significant portions of our business and could have a continued adverse impact on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected significant portions of our business and could have a continued adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Authorities have imposed, and businesses and individuals have implemented from time to time, numerous measures to try to

contain the virus and its variants or treat its impact, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place/stay-at-home and social distancing orders, shutdowns, and vaccine requirements. These measures have impacted and may further impact our workforce and operations, the operations of our customers, and those of our and their respective suppliers and partners. We have experienced, and could in the future experience, reduced workforce availability at some of our sites, construction delays, and reduced capacity at some of our suppliers. Restrictions on our operations or workforce, or of those of our suppliers, and transportation restrictions or disruptions, can limit our ability to meet customer demand. Our customers have experienced, and may in the future experience, disruptions in their operations and supply chains, which can result in delayed, reduced, or cancelled orders or collection risks. Any such occurrences would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
The pandemic has caused us to modify our business practices, including with respect to employee travel, employee work locations, cancellation of physical participation in meetings, events, and conferences, and social distancing measures. We may take further actions to prevent infections as required by government authorities or others, or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, suppliers, and partners. Work-from-home and other measures introduce additional operational risks, including cybersecurity risks, and have affected the way we conduct development, validation, and qualification of our solutions and other activities. There is no certainty that such measures will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the virus, and illness and workforce disruptions could lead to unavailability of key personnel and harm our ability to perform critical functions.
The pandemic has significantly increased economic and demand uncertainty, and has led to volatility in capital markets and credit markets. See “— General Risks — Global or regional conditions can adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.” Restrictions imposed on travel and reduced operations or closures of OEM manufacturers or dealerships that sell vehicle models that implement our solutions could result in challenges in or postponements for deployments of our new and existing solutions. Given the continued and substantial economic uncertainty and volatility created by the pandemic, it is difficult to predict the nature and extent of impacts on demand for our solutions.
The degree to which COVID-19 impacts our results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the duration and severity of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the virus and its variants or treat their impact, other actions taken by governments, businesses, and individuals in response to the virus and resulting economic disruption, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. Additional impacts and risks may arise that we are not aware of or able to respond to effectively. We are similarly unable to predict the extent of the impact of the pandemic on our customers, suppliers, and other partners, but an adverse effect on these parties could also adversely affect us. The impact of COVID-19 can also exacerbate other risks discussed in this Risk Factors section and throughout this prospectus.
We are a holding company.
We are a holding company. Accordingly, our ability to conduct our operations, service the Dividend Note after the consummation of this offering and any debt that we may incur in the future, and pay dividends, if any, is dependent upon the earnings from the business conducted by our subsidiaries. The distribution of those earnings or advances or other distributions of funds by our subsidiaries to us, as well as our receipt of such funds, are contingent upon the earnings of our subsidiaries and are subject to various business considerations and applicable law, including the laws of Israel. If our subsidiaries are unable to make sufficient distributions or advances to us, or if there are limitations on our ability to receive such distributions or advances, we may not have the cash resources necessary to conduct our corporate operations, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Risks Related to Privacy, Data, and Cybersecurity
Interruptions to our information technology systems and networks and cybersecurity incidents could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We collect and maintain information in digital form that is necessary to conduct our business, and we rely on information technology systems and networks (“IT systems”) to process, transmit, and store electronic

information, and to manage or support our business and consumer facing activities. Our operations routinely involve receiving, storing, processing, and transmitting confidential or sensitive information pertaining to our business, customers, suppliers, employees, and other sensitive matters, including trade secrets, other proprietary business information, and personal information. Although we have established physical, electronic, and organizational measures designed to safeguard and secure our systems to prevent a data breach or compromise, and rely on commercially available systems, software, tools, and monitoring to provide security for our IT systems and the processing, transmission, and storage of digital information, we cannot guarantee that such measures will be adequate to detect, prevent, or mitigate cyber incidents. The implementation, maintenance, segregation, and improvement of these measures requires significant management time, support, and cost. Moreover, there are inherent risks associated with developing, improving, expanding, and updating current systems, including the disruption of our data management, procurement, production execution, finance, supply chain, and sales and service processes. These risks may affect our ability to manage our data and inventory, procure parts or supplies, or produce, sell, deliver, and service our solutions, adequately protect our intellectual property, or achieve and maintain compliance with, or realize available benefits under, applicable laws, regulations, and contracts.
We cannot be sure that the IT systems upon which we rely, including those of our third-party vendors or suppliers, will be effectively implemented, maintained, or expanded as planned. While cyberattacks against our third-party vendors or suppliers have not materially adversely affected us to date, future cyberattacks on such third parties may cause significant disruptions and materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. In addition, despite the implementation of preventative and detective security controls, such IT systems are vulnerable to damage, shutdown, or interruption from a variety of sources, including telecommunications or network failures or interruptions, system malfunction, natural disasters, terrorism, and war. Additionally, our IT systems and products may be vulnerable to malicious acts by hackers, including through use of computer viruses, malware (including ransomware), phishing attacks, or denial of service attacks.
We regularly face attempts by others to gain unauthorized access, or to introduce malicious software, to our IT systems. Individuals or organizations, including malicious hackers, state-sponsored organizations, insider threats, including employees and third-party service providers, or intruders into our physical facilities, at times may attempt to gain unauthorized access to or corrupt our IT systems, products, or services. Due to the widespread use of our solutions, we are a target for computer hackers and organizations that intend to sabotage, take control of, or otherwise corrupt our processes, solutions, and services. We are also a target for malicious attackers who attempt to gain access to our network or data centers or those of our suppliers, customers, partners, or end users, steal proprietary information related to our business, products, employees, suppliers, and customers, interrupt our infrastructure, systems, and services or those of our suppliers, customers, or others, or demand ransom to return control of such systems and services. Such attempts are increasing in number and in technical sophistication, and if successful, expose us and the affected parties to risk of loss or misuse of confidential or other proprietary or commercially sensitive information, compromise personal information regarding users or employees, disrupt our business operations, and jeopardize the security of our facilities. Our IT infrastructure also includes products and services provided by third parties, and these providers may experience breaches of their systems and products that impact the security of our systems and our proprietary or confidential information.
We have experienced data breaches, cyberattacks, attempts to breach our systems, and other similar incidents, none of which have resulted in a material adverse impact to our business or operations, but there can be no guarantee we will not experience an incident that would have such an impact. Such incidents, whether or not successful, could result in our incurring significant costs related to, for example, rebuilding internal systems, writing down inventory value, implementing additional threat protection measures, providing modifications to our solutions, defending against litigation, responding to regulatory inquiries or actions, paying damages, providing customers with incentives to maintain the business relationship, or taking other remedial steps with respect to third parties, as well as reputational harm. In addition, cybersecurity threats are constantly evolving, thereby increasing the difficulty of successfully defending against them or implementing adequate preventative measures. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, remote work and remote access to our systems have increased significantly, which also increases our cybersecurity attack surface. There has also been an increase in cyberattack volume, frequency, and sophistication driven by the global enablement of remote workforces. We seek to detect and investigate unauthorized attempts and attacks against our

network and solutions and to prevent their recurrence where practicable through changes to our internal processes and tools and changes or updates to our solutions. However, despite the implementation of preventative and detective security controls, we, and the third parties upon which we rely, remain potentially vulnerable to additional known or unknown cybersecurity threats. In some instances, we, our suppliers, our customers, and end users, can be unaware of an incident or its magnitude and effects. Even when a security breach is detected, the full extent of the breach may not be determined, and even if determined, a full investigation may require time and resources. Any actual or perceived security incident could result in, among other things, unfavorable publicity, governmental inquiry and oversight, difficulty in marketing our services, allegations by our customers that we have not performed our contractual obligations, litigation by affected parties, including our customers, and possible financial obligations for damages related to the theft or misuse of such information or inventory, any of which would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Security breaches and other disruptions of our in-vehicle systems and related data could impact the safety of our end users and reduce confidence in us and our solutions.
Our ADAS and autonomous driving systems contain complex information technology. These systems may affect the control of various vehicle functions including engine, transmission, safety, steering, navigation, acceleration, and braking. We have designed, implemented, and tested security measures intended to prevent unauthorized access to these systems. However, hackers may attempt in the future to gain unauthorized access to modify, alter, and use such systems to gain control of, or to change, the functionality, user interface and performance characteristics of vehicles incorporating our solutions, or to gain access to data stored in or generated by the vehicle. In addition, as we transition to offering solutions that involve cloud-based solutions, including over-the-air updates, our solutions may increasingly be subject to cyber threats. We also transmit and store RoadBook data on the cloud with Amazon Web Services, and we depend on Amazon Web Services for securing data stored with it. Hackers may attempt to infiltrate, steal, corrupt, or manipulate such data on the cloud, which could also result in our in-vehicle systems malfunctioning. Malicious cybersecurity attacks against our in-vehicle systems that relate to automotive safety and related data, such as the data described in the preceding sentence, could potentially lead to bodily injury or death of end users, passengers, and others. Any unauthorized access to or control of vehicles incorporating our solutions or their systems could adversely impact the safety of those vehicles, or result in legal or regulatory claims or proceedings, liability, or regulatory penalties. Moreover, new laws, such as the new data law in Massachusetts that would permit third-party access to vehicle data and related systems, could expose our vehicles and vehicle systems to third-party access without appropriate security measures in place, leading to new safety and security risks, and reducing trust and confidence in our solutions. In addition, regardless of their accuracy, reports of unauthorized access to our solutions, their systems, or data, as well as other factors that may result in the perception that our solutions, their systems, or data are capable of being hacked, could harm our reputation, and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Failures or perceived failures to comply with privacy, data protection, and information security requirements, or theft, loss, or misuse of personal information about our employees, customers, end users, or other third parties, or other information, could increase our expenses, damage our reputation, or result in legal or regulatory proceedings.
The theft, loss, or misuse of personal information collected, used, stored, or transferred by us to run our business could result in significantly increased business and security costs or costs related to defending legal claims. For example, data collected by the camera of our solutions during the development cycle of a project may include personal information such as license plate numbers of other vehicles, facial features of pedestrians, appearance of individuals, GPS data, and geolocation data. We anticipate that our collection of such personal information will increase as a result of the growth of our MaaS solutions, including our integration of Moovit, which provides us with access to personal information of its users, and it may increase as we enter into new or adjacent businesses. Notwithstanding our efforts to protect the security and integrity of our customers’ personal information, we may be required to expend significant resources to comply with data breach requirements if, for example, third parties improperly obtain and use the personal information of our customers, or we otherwise experience a data loss with respect to customers’ personal

information. A major breach of our network security and systems may result in fines, penalties, and damages, harm our reputation, and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Data privacy is subject to frequently changing rules and regulations, which sometimes conflict among the various jurisdictions and countries in which we provide services. We are subject to a variety of local, state, national and international laws, directives, and regulations that apply to the collection, use, retention, protection, security, disclosure, transfer, and other processing of personal data in the different jurisdictions in which we operate (“Data Protection Laws”). Any failure by us or our vendors or other business partners to comply with our public privacy notice or with U.S. federal, state, local, Israeli, Chinese, or other foreign or international Data Protection Laws could result in regulatory or litigation-related actions against us, legal liability, fines, damages, ongoing audit requirements, and other significant costs. Global privacy legislation, enforcement, and policy activity in this area are rapidly expanding and creating a complex regulatory compliance environment. Because many Data Protection Laws are new or subject to recent revisions or updates, there is often little clarity as to their interpretation or best practices for compliance, as well as a lack of precedent for the scope of enforcement. Costs to comply with Data Protection Laws and implement related privacy and data protection measures are significant, and may require us to change our business practices and compliance manners. Any noncompliance could adversely affect our ability to collect, analyze, and store data, expose us to significant monetary penalties, damage to our reputation, result in suspension of online services or sites in certain countries, and even result in criminal sanctions. Even our inadvertent failure to comply with Data Protection Laws could result in audits, regulatory inquiries, or proceedings against us by governmental entities or other third parties. Any inability to adequately address data privacy or data protection, or other information security-related concerns, even if unfounded, to successfully negotiate privacy, data protection, or information security-related contractual terms with customers, or to comply with Data Protection Laws, could result in additional cost and liability to us, harm our reputation and brand, and could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Risks Related to our Intellectual Property Rights
We may not be able to adequately protect, defend or enforce our intellectual property rights, and our efforts to do so may be costly.
The success of our solutions and business depends in part on our ability to obtain patents and other intellectual property rights and to maintain adequate legal protection for our solutions in the United States and other international jurisdictions. If we are not able to adequately protect or enforce the proprietary aspects of our technology, competitors could be able to access our proprietary technology and our business, results of operations, and financial condition could be adversely affected. We currently attempt to protect our technology through a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, employee and third-party nondisclosure agreements and similar means, all of which provide only limited protection. We have filed for patent and trademark registration in the United States, Israel and in certain other international jurisdictions. However, effective intellectual property protection may be unavailable in some countries where we operate or seek to enforce our intellectual property rights or more limited in foreign jurisdictions relative to those protections available in the United States, or may not be applied for in one or more relevant jurisdictions. Even if foreign patents are granted, effective enforcement in foreign countries may not be available.
Our issued patents and trademarks and any pending or future patent and trademark applications that may result in issuances or registrations may not provide sufficiently broad protection or may not prove to be enforceable in actions against alleged infringers. The patent prosecution process is expensive, time-consuming, and complex, and we may not be able to file, prosecute, maintain, enforce, or license all necessary or desirable patent applications at a reasonable cost or in a timely manner. It is also possible that we will fail to identify patentable aspects of our research and development output in time to obtain patent protection. Failure to timely seek patent protection on products or technologies generally precludes us from seeking future patent protection on these products or technologies. Even if we do timely seek patent protection, the coverage claimed in a patent application can be significantly reduced before a patent is issued, and its scope can be reinterpreted after issuance. As a result, we may not be able to protect our proprietary rights adequately in the United States, Israel or elsewhere. Failure to adequately protect our intellectual property

rights could result in our competitors offering similar products or services, potentially resulting in the loss of some of our competitive advantage and a decrease in our revenue, which would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Despite our efforts, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy, reverse engineer, disclose, obtain, or use our technologies or systems. Our competitors may also be able to independently develop similar products or services that are competitive to ours or design around our issued patents. If third parties obtain patent protection with respect to such technologies, they may assert that our technology infringes their patents and seek to charge us a licensing fee or otherwise preclude or make costlier the use of our technology. Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce or defend our intellectual property rights, to prevent unauthorized parties from copying or reverse engineering our solutions, to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others or to block the importation of infringing products into the United States or other countries. We have been, and in the future may be, a party to claims and litigation as a result of alleged infringement by third parties of our intellectual property. Even when we sue other parties for such infringement, that suit may have adverse consequences for our business. Any such suit is likely to be time-consuming and expensive to resolve and may divert our management’s time and attention from our business, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition, and legal fees related to such litigation will increase our operating expenses and may reduce our net income. Any claims we assert against perceived infringers could provoke these parties to assert counterclaims against us, alleging that we infringe their intellectual property or alleging that our intellectual property is invalid or unenforceable. Furthermore, any litigation initiated by us could result in a court or governmental agency invalidating or rendering unenforceable our patents or other intellectual property rights upon which the suit is based, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We have previously faced claims and may in the future become subject to additional claims and litigation brought by third parties alleging infringement by us of their intellectual property rights.
The industry in which our business operates is characterized by a large number of patents, some of which may be of questionable scope, validity, or enforceability, and some of which may appear to overlap with other issued patents. As a result, there is a significant amount of uncertainty in the industry regarding patent protection and infringement. In addition to these patents, participants in this industry typically also protect their technology, especially embedded software, through copyrights and trade secrets. In recent years, there has been significant litigation globally involving patents and other intellectual property rights.
We have previously faced claims and may in the future be subject to additional claims and litigation alleging our infringement, misappropriation or other violation of third-party patent rights, trade secret rights or other intellectual property rights, particularly as a public company with an increased profile and visibility, and as we expand our presence in the market and to new use cases and face increasing competition. In addition, in the event that we recruit employees from other technology companies, including certain potential competitors, and these employees are used in the development of solutions that are similar to the solutions they were involved in developing for their former employers, we may become subject to claims that such employees have improperly used or disclosed trade secrets or other proprietary information. We may also in the future be subject to claims by our suppliers, employees, consultants, or contractors asserting an ownership right in our patents or patent applications, as a result of the work they performed on our behalf. These claims and any resulting lawsuits, if resolved adversely to us, could subject us to significant liability for damages, impose temporary or permanent injunctions against our solutions or business operations or invalidate or render unenforceable our intellectual property. In addition, because patent applications can take many years until the patents issue, there may be applications now pending of which we are unaware, which may later result in issued patents that our solutions may infringe. If any of our solutions infringe a third party’s patent rights, or if we wish to avoid potential intellectual property litigation on any alleged infringement relating to our solutions, we could be prevented from selling, or we could elect not to sell, such solutions unless we obtain additional intellectual property rights and licenses, which may involve substantial royalty or other payments and may not be available on acceptable terms or at all. Alternatively, we could be forced to redesign one or more of our solutions to avoid any infringement or allegations thereof. Procuring or developing substitute solutions that do not infringe could require significant effort and expense, and we may not be successful in any attempt to redesign our solutions to avoid any alleged infringement.

A successful claim of infringement against us, or our failure or inability to develop and implement non-infringing technology, or license the infringed intellectual property rights, on acceptable terms and on a timely basis, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. A party making such a claim, if successful, could secure a judgment that requires us to pay substantial damages or obtain an injunction. An adverse determination also could invalidate our intellectual property rights and adversely affect our ability to offer our solutions to our customers. Additionally, we may face liability to our customers, business partners or third parties for indemnification or other remedies in the event that they are sued for infringement in connection with their use of our solutions. We currently have a number of agreements in effect pursuant to which we have agreed to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless our customers, suppliers and other business partners from damages and costs which may arise from the infringement by our solutions of third-party patents or other intellectual property rights. The scope of these indemnity obligations varies, but may, in some instances, include indemnification for damages and expenses, including attorneys’ fees. Furthermore, our defense of intellectual property rights claims brought against us or our customers, business partners or other related third parties, regardless of our success, would likely be time-consuming and expensive to resolve and would divert management’s time and attention from our business, which could seriously harm our business. A claim that our solutions infringe a third party’s intellectual property rights, even if untrue, could adversely affect our relationships with our customers or suppliers, may deter future customers from purchasing our solutions and could seriously harm our reputation with our customers or suppliers, as well as our reputation in the industry at large.
We depend on licenses for certain technologies from third parties, some of which require us to pay royalties, and our inability to use such technologies in the future would harm our ability to remain competitive.
We integrate certain technologies developed and owned by third parties into our solutions, including the central processing unit cores of our EyeQ® SoCs, through license and technology transfer agreements. Under these agreements, we are obligated to pay royalties for each unit of our solutions that we sell that incorporates such third-party technology. If we are unable to maintain our contractual relationships with the third-party licensors on which we depend, then we may not be able to find replacement technology to integrate into our solutions on a timely basis or for a similar royalty fee, in which case our business, results of operations, and financial condition would also be adversely affected.
If we are unable to continue to use or license these technologies on reasonable terms, or if these technologies fail to operate properly, we may not be able to secure alternatives in a timely manner or at all, and our ability to remain competitive would be harmed. In addition, if we are unable to successfully license technology from third parties to develop future solutions, we may not be able to develop such solutions in a timely manner or at all. The operation or security of our solutions could be impaired if errors or other defects occur in the third-party technologies we use, and it may be more difficult for us to correct any such errors and defects in a timely manner, if at all, because the development and maintenance of these technologies is not within our control. Any impairment of the technologies or of our relationship with these third parties would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We may become subject to claims for remuneration or royalties for assigned service invention rights by our employees that result in litigation, which would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
A significant portion of our intellectual property has been developed by our employees in the course of their employment for us. Under the Israeli Patent Law, 5727-1967 (the “Patent Law”), inventions conceived by an employee in the course and as a result of his or her employment with a company are regarded as “service inventions” that belong to the employer, absent a specific agreement between the employee and employer providing otherwise. The Patent Law also provides that, in the absence of an agreement to the contrary between an employer and an employee, the Israeli Compensation and Royalties Committee (the “Committee”), a body constituted under the Patent Law, will determine whether the employee is entitled to remuneration for his or her inventions. Further, the Committee has not yet determined one specific formula for calculating this remuneration but rather uses the criteria specified in the Patent Law. Although we enter into assignment-of-invention agreements with our employees and service providers pursuant to which such individuals waive their right to remuneration for service inventions, we may face claims demanding remuneration in consideration for assigned inventions. As a consequence of such claims, we could be required

to pay additional remuneration or royalties to our current and/or former employees and service providers, or be forced to litigate such claims, which would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
In addition to patented technology, we rely on our unpatented proprietary technology, trade secrets, processes, and know-how.
We rely on proprietary information (such as trade secrets, know-how, and confidential information) to protect intellectual property that may not be patentable and may not be subject to copyright, trademark, trade dress or service mark protection, or that we believe is best protected by means that do not require public disclosure. Such proprietary information may be owned by us or disclosed to us by our licensors, suppliers or other third parties. We generally seek to protect this proprietary information by entering into confidentiality agreements, or consulting, services or employment agreements that contain non-disclosure and non-use provisions with our employees, consultants, contractors, scientific advisors and other third parties. However, we may fail to enter into the necessary agreements, and even if entered into, these agreements may be breached or may otherwise fail to prevent disclosure, third-party infringement, or misappropriation of our proprietary information, may be limited as to their term, and may not provide an adequate remedy in the event of unauthorized disclosure or use of proprietary information. We have limited control over the protection of trade secrets used by our third-party manufacturers and suppliers and could lose future trade secret protection if any unauthorized disclosure of such information occurs. In addition, our proprietary information may otherwise become known or be independently developed by our competitors or other third parties. To the extent that our employees, consultants, contractors, scientific advisors and other third parties use intellectual property owned by others in their work for us, disputes may arise as to the rights in or to related or resulting know-how and inventions. Costly and time-consuming litigation could be necessary to enforce and determine the scope of our proprietary rights, and failure to obtain or maintain protection for our proprietary information could adversely affect our competitive business position. Furthermore, laws regarding trade secret rights in certain markets where we operate may afford little or no protection to our trade secrets.
We also rely on physical and electronic security measures to protect our proprietary information, but we cannot provide assurance that these security measures will not be breached or provide adequate protection for our property. There is a risk that third parties may obtain and improperly utilize our proprietary information to our competitive disadvantage. We may not be able to detect or prevent the unauthorized use of such information or take appropriate and timely steps to protect and enforce our intellectual property rights. The theft or unauthorized use or publication of our trade secrets and other confidential business information as a result of such an incident would affect our competitive position and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We use certain software and data governed by open-source licenses, which under certain circumstances could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Certain of our software and data, as well as that of our customers and vendors, may be derived from or otherwise incorporate so-called “open source” software and data that is generally made available to the public by its authors and/or other third parties. Some open-source software is made available under licenses that impose certain obligations on us regarding modifications or derivative works we create based upon the open-source software. These obligations may require us to make source code for the derivative works available to the public and/or license such derivative works under a particular type of license, rather than the forms of license we customarily use to protect our intellectual property. Additionally, if we combine our proprietary software with open-source software in certain manners we could be required to release the source code of our proprietary software or to make our proprietary software available under open-source licenses to third parties at little or no cost or on unfavorable license terms. In the event that the copyright holder of, or other third party that distributes, open-source software alleges that we have not complied with the terms of an open-source license, we could incur significant legal costs defending ourselves against such allegations. If such claims are successful, we could be subject to significant damages, required to release the source code that we developed using that open-source software to the public, enjoined from distributing our software and/or required to take other actions that could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
While we take steps to monitor the use of open-source software in our solutions, processes and technology and try to ensure that no open-source software is used in such a way as to require us to disclose the source code to the related product, processes, or technology when we do not wish to do so, such use could inadvertently occur. Additionally, if a third-party software provider has incorporated certain types of open source software into software we license from such third party for our solutions, processes, or technology, we could, under certain circumstances, be required to disclose the source code to our solutions, processes, or technology. This could harm our intellectual property position and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Further, the use of open-source software can lead to vulnerabilities that may make our software susceptible to attack, and although some open-source vendors provide warranty and support agreements, it is common for such software to be available “as is” with no warranty, indemnity, or support. Although we monitor our use of such open-source code to avoid subjecting our solutions to unintended conditions, such use, under certain circumstances, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results and cash flow, including if we are required to take remedial action that may divert resources away from our development efforts.
Risks Related to Our Industry
Adverse conditions in the automotive industry or the global economy more generally would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Our business depends on, and is directly affected by, the global automobile industry. Economic conditions in North America, Europe and Asia can have a large impact on the production volume of new vehicles, and, accordingly, have an impact on our revenue. Automotive production and sales are highly cyclical and depend on general economic conditions and other factors, including consumer spending and preferences, changes in interest rate levels and credit availability, consumer confidence and purchasing power, energy and fuel costs, fuel availability, environmental impact, governmental incentives, regulatory requirements, and political volatility, especially in energy-producing countries and growth markets. In addition, automotive production and sales can be affected by our customers’ ability to continue operating in response to challenging economic conditions, such as those caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and in response to labor relations issues and shortages, supply chain disruptions, regulatory requirements, trade agreements and other factors. For example, while the global vehicle industry shows recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, with approximately 3% growth year over year in 2021, production in 2021 was still approximately 13% below the 2019 level. The volume of automotive production in North America, Europe, China, and the rest of the world has fluctuated, sometimes significantly, from year to year, for many reasons, and such fluctuations give rise to fluctuations in the demand for our solutions. Any adverse change in any of these factors, including, but not limited to, general economic conditions, the bankruptcy of any of our customers or the closure of OEM manufacturing facilities may result in a reduction in automotive sales and production, and would have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
If OEMs are unable to maintain and increase consumer acceptance of ADAS and autonomous driving technology, our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.
Our future operating results will depend on the ability of OEMs to maintain and increase consumer acceptance of ADAS and autonomous driving. There is no assurance that OEMs can achieve these objectives. Market acceptance of ADAS and autonomous driving depends upon many factors, including regulatory requirements, evolving safety standards, costs, and driver preferences. Market acceptance of ADAS and autonomous driving may also be adversely affected by safety incidents involving ADAS and autonomous driving solutions, even if the incidents do not involve our solutions. We cannot be sure that ADAS and autonomous driving will achieve market acceptance on a timeline that is consistent with our expectations or development and production plans. Market acceptance of our solutions also depends on the ability of market participants, including Mobileye, to resolve technical challenges for increasingly complex ADAS and autonomous driving technology in a timely and cost-effective manner. Consumers will also need to be made aware of the advantages of our solutions, such as the advantages of our offerings compared to competing technologies, specifically those that rely solely on either cameras or LiDAR and radar. If consumer

acceptance of ADAS and autonomous driving technology does not increase, our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.
We operate in an industry that is new and rapidly evolving, and the estimates and forecasts of TAM and SAM included in this prospectus are subject to significant uncertainty.
We are pursuing opportunities in markets that are undergoing rapid changes, including technological and regulatory changes, and it is difficult to predict the timing and size of the opportunities. For example, ADAS and autonomous driving applications require complex technology and are subject to uncertainties with respect to, among other things, the rate of consumer acceptance and the impact of current or future regulations. Because these automotive systems depend on technology from many companies, commercialization of some ADAS or autonomous driving solutions could be delayed or impaired on account of certain technological components of our or others not being ready to be deployed in vehicles. Regulatory, safety or reliability developments, many of which are outside of our control, could also cause delays or otherwise impair commercial adoption of these new technologies, which will adversely affect our growth.
This prospectus contains estimates and forecasts concerning our industry, including estimates of the TAM and serviceable addressable market (“SAM”) of our current and anticipated future solutions, that are based on industry publications and reports or other publicly available information as well as our internal estimates and expectations. These estimates and forecasts involve a number of assumptions and limitations, and are subject to significant uncertainty, and you are cautioned not to give them undue weight. Industry surveys and publications generally state that the information contained therein has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but there can be no assurance as to the accuracy and completeness of the included information. We have not independently verified this third-party information. Similarly, our internal estimates and forecasts are based on a variety of assumptions, including assumptions regarding market acceptance of autonomous driving and ADAS and the manner in which this new and rapidly evolving market will develop. While we believe our assumptions and the data underlying our estimates and forecasts are reasonable, these assumptions and estimates may not be correct and the conditions supporting our assumptions or estimates may change at any time, thereby reducing the predictive accuracy of these underlying factors. As a result, our estimates and forecasts may prove to be incorrect. If third-party or internally generated data prove to be inaccurate or we make errors in our assumptions based on that data, the TAM and SAM for our solutions may be smaller than we have estimated, our future growth opportunities and sales growth may be smaller than we estimate, and our future business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.
Our future financial performance will depend on our ability to make timely investments in the correct market opportunities. If one or more of these markets experience a shift in customer or prospective customer demand, then our solutions may not compete as effectively, if at all, and they may not be incorporated into commercialized end customer products. Given the evolving nature of the markets in which we operate, it is difficult to predict customer demand or adoption rates for our solutions or the future growth of the markets in which we operate. Even if the market for ADAS and autonomous driving solutions grows substantially, there is no guarantee that demand for our solutions will correlate with that growth if we fail to effectively pursue such opportunities. There is also no guarantee that our business will be successful simply because of the future TAM or SAM of our solutions, or because of the trends of the TAM and SAM of our solutions. If demand does not develop or if we cannot accurately forecast customer demand, then the size of our markets, inventory requirements or our future business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.
Regulatory and Compliance Risks
We are subject to a variety of laws and regulations that affect our operations and that could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We are subject to laws and regulations worldwide that affect our operations and that differ among jurisdictions, including automotive safety regulations, regulations governing autonomous driving technology,
 
37

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
intellectual property ownership and infringement laws, tax laws, import and export regulations, anti-corruption laws, foreign exchange controls and cash repatriation restrictions, data privacy laws, competition laws, advertising regulations, employment laws, product regulations, environmental laws, health and safety requirements, consumer laws and national security laws. Compliance with such requirements can be onerous and expensive, and may otherwise adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Although we have policies, controls, and procedures designed to help ensure compliance with applicable laws, there can be no assurance that our employees, contractors, suppliers, or agents will not violate such laws or our policies. There may also be laws and regulations that limit the functionality of our solutions or require us to adapt our solutions to retain functionality. For example, the regulatory environment in China creates challenges for the proliferation of our solutions in that market. Due to regulations there, we also depend on our partners in China in order to collect, analyze and transmit data, and such partners may choose to cease, or be unable to, continue cooperating with us. Other countries have, or may implement, similar restrictions. Violations of these laws and regulations can result in fines, criminal sanctions against us, our officers, or our employees, prohibitions on the conduct of our business and damage to our reputation. The automotive and technology industries are subject to intense media, political, and regulatory scrutiny, which can increase our exposure to government investigations, legal actions, and penalties.
Our business, results of operations, and financial condition may be adversely affected by changes in automotive safety regulations or concerns that drive regulations that increase our costs or delay or halt adoption of our solutions.
There are a variety of international, foreign, federal, and state regulations that apply to vehicle safety that could affect the marketability of our solutions. Regulations relating to autonomous driving include many existing vehicle standards that were not originally intended to apply to vehicles that may not have a human driver, and autonomous driving may never be globally approved. The expected launch of our AMaaS solutions in many jurisdictions remains subject to regulatory review and approvals, and the regulatory standards relating to AMaaS are still developing and remain subject to substantial uncertainty. There has been relatively little mandatory government regulation of the self-driving industry to date. Currently, there are no Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards that relate to the performance of self-driving technology and no widely accepted uniform standards to certify self-driving technology and its commercial use on public roads. It is also possible that future self-driving regulations are not standardized, and our technology could become subject to differing regulations across jurisdictions. For example, in Europe, certain vehicle safety regulations apply to automated braking and steering systems, and certain treaties also restrict the legality of certain higher levels of automation, while certain U.S. states have legal restrictions on automation that many other states are also considering. Such regulations continue to rapidly change, which increases the likelihood of varying complex or conflicting regulations or may limit global adoption, impede our strategy, or negatively impact our long-term expectations for our investments in these areas.
Government safety regulations are subject to change based on a number of factors that are not within our control, including new scientific or technological data, adverse publicity regarding the industry, recalls, concerns regarding safety risks of autonomous driving and ADAS, accidents involving our solutions or those of our competitors, domestic and foreign political developments or considerations and litigation relating to our solutions and our competitors’ products. Changes in government regulations, especially those relating to ADAS and autonomous driving, could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Regulations governing the automotive industry impose stringent compliance and reporting requirements in response to product recalls and safety issues in the automotive industry, including a duty to report, subject to strict timing requirements, safety defects with, or reports of injuries relating to, our solutions and requirements that a manufacturer recall and repair vehicles that contain safety defects or fail to comply with applicable safety standards. If we do not rapidly address any safety concerns or defects involving our solutions, our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.
We are subject to risks related to trade policies, sanctions, and export controls.
Trade policies and international disputes at times result in increased tariffs, trade barriers and other restrictions, which can increase our manufacturing costs, make our solutions less competitive, reduce demand

for our solutions, limit our ability to sell to certain customers, limit our ability to procure components or raw materials or impede or slow the movement of our goods across borders. Increasing protectionism and economic nationalism may lead to further changes in trade policies and regulations, domestic sourcing initiatives, or other formal and informal measures.
Likewise, national security and foreign policy concerns may prompt governments to impose trade or other restrictions, which could make it more difficult to sell our solutions in, or restrict our access to, certain markets. In this regard, our business activities are subject to various trade and economic sanctions laws and regulations, including, without limitation, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control’s sanctions programs and the Export Administration Regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Commerce. These rules may prohibit or restrict our ability to, directly or indirectly, conduct activities or dealings in or with certain countries or involving certain persons, or otherwise affect our business. While we believe that current U.S. sanctions do not materially impede our ability to conduct our current business, new sanctions imposed by the United States, the European Union or other countries may restrict certain of our operations and negatively affect our revenue and profitability in the future. Although we take steps to comply with applicable laws and regulations, our failure to successfully comply with applicable sanctions or export control rules may expose us to negative legal and business consequences, including civil or criminal penalties and government investigations.
In particular, in response to Russia’s recent invasion of Ukraine, the United States, the European Union, and several other countries are imposing far-reaching sanctions and export control restrictions on Russian entities and individuals. See “— The current conflict between Ukraine and Russia has exacerbated market instability and disrupted the global economy.”
Additionally, tensions between the United States and China have led to increased tariffs and trade restrictions, including tariffs applicable to some of our solutions, and have affected customer ordering patterns. In addition to imposing economic sanctions on certain Chinese individuals and entities, the United States has imposed restrictions on the export of U.S.-regulated products and technology to certain Chinese technology companies, including certain of our customers. Future restrictions could adversely affect our financial performance, result in reputational harm to us due to our relationship with such companies or lead such companies to develop or adopt technologies that compete with our solutions. For example, Geely Holding Group Co., Ltd, an automotive company headquartered in China, recently commenced production of Mobileye SuperVision in its Zeekr premium electric vehicle brand with RoadBook scheduled for inclusion with an OTA update in 2022, and we achieved an AV design win for inclusion of our consumer Level 4 platform built on the Mobileye Chauffeur system in Zeekr. Moreover, in 2021 and in the three months ended April 2, 2022, we derived approximately 19% and 23%, respectively, of our revenue from shipments of products to China. It is difficult to predict what further trade-related actions governments may take, which may include trade restrictions and additional or increased tariffs and export controls imposed on short notice, and we may be unable to quickly and effectively react to or mitigate such actions.
Trade disputes and protectionist measures, or continued uncertainty about such matters, could result in declining consumer confidence and slowing economic growth or recession, and could cause our customers to reduce, cancel, or alter the timing of their purchases with us. Sustained geopolitical tensions could lead to long-term changes in global trade and technology supply chains, and decoupling of global trade networks, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
The current conflict between Ukraine and Russia has exacerbated market instability and disrupted the global economy.
The current conflict between Ukraine and Russia has caused uncertainty about economic and political stability, increasing volatility in the credit and financial markets and disrupting the global economy. The United States, the European Union, and several other countries are imposing far-reaching sanctions and export control restrictions on Russian entities and individuals. These measures could constrain our ability to work with Russian companies or individuals in connection with the development of our solutions in the future. These sanctions and export controls may also contribute to higher oil and gas prices and inflation, which could reduce demand in the global automotive sector and therefore reduce demand for our solutions. There is also a risk that Russia, as a retaliatory action to sanctions, may launch cyberattacks against the United States, the European Union, or other countries or their infrastructures and businesses. Additional

consequences of the conflict may include diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, declines in economic growth, and various shortages and supply chain disruptions. While we do not currently directly rely on goods or services sourced in Russia or Ukraine and thus have not experienced any direct disruptions, we may experience indirect disruptions in our supply chain. Any of the foregoing factors, including developments or effects that we cannot yet predict, may adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Risks Related to Operations in Israel
Conditions in Israel affect our operations and may limit our ability to produce and sell our solutions.
Although we are incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, our headquarters and research and development center are located in the State of Israel, and as of April 2, 2022, substantially all of our equipment and long-lived assets were located in Israel. Many of our employees, including certain members of our management, operate from our offices that are located in Jerusalem, Israel. In addition, a number of our officers and directors are residents of Israel. Accordingly, political, economic, and military conditions in Israel and the surrounding region may directly affect our business and operations. In recent years, Israel has been engaged in sporadic armed conflicts with Hamas, an Islamist terrorist group that controls the Gaza Strip, with Hezbollah, an Islamist terrorist group that controls large portions of southern Lebanon, and with Iranian-backed military forces in Syria. In addition, Iran has threatened to attack Israel and may be developing nuclear weapons. Some of these hostilities were accompanied by missiles being fired from the Gaza Strip against civilian targets in various parts of Israel, including areas in which our employees are located, and negatively affected business conditions in Israel. Any hostilities involving Israel, regional geopolitical instability or the interruption or curtailment of trade between Israel and its trading partners as a result thereof could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Our commercial insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of events associated with war and terrorism. Although the Israeli government currently covers the reinstatement value of certain direct damages that are caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war, such coverage would likely be limited, may not be applicable to our business and may not reinstate our loss of revenue or economic losses more generally. Furthermore, we cannot assure you that this government coverage will be maintained or that it will sufficiently cover our potential damages. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have a material adverse effect on our business. Any armed conflicts or political instability in the region would likely negatively affect business conditions and could harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Further, in the past, the State of Israel and Israeli companies have been subjected to economic boycotts. Several countries still restrict doing business with the State of Israel and with Israeli companies. These restrictive laws and policies may have an adverse impact on our operating results, financial condition, or the expansion of our business. A campaign of boycotts, divestment and sanctions has been undertaken against Israel, which could also adversely impact our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Our operations may be disrupted by the obligations of personnel to perform military service.
Some of our employees in Israel are obligated to perform annual reserve duty in the Israeli military for several days, and in some cases more, of annual military reserve duty each year until they reach the age of 40 (or older, for reservists who are military officers or who have certain occupations) and are subject to being called for additional active duty under emergency circumstances. In response to increased tension and hostilities, there have been occasional call-ups of military reservists, and it is possible that there will be additional call-ups in the future. We cannot predict the full impact of these conditions on us in the future, particularly if emergency circumstances or an escalation in the political situation occurs. If many of our employees are called for active duty, our operations in Israel and our business may not be able to function at full capacity, and our business, results of operations, and financial condition could be adversely affected.
The tax benefits that are available to us under Israeli law require us to meet various conditions and may be terminated or reduced in the future, which could increase our costs and taxes.
We believe that our Israeli subsidiary is eligible for certain tax benefits provided to a “Special Preferred Technology Enterprise” under the Israeli Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959, and its
 
40

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
regulations, as amended (the “Investment Law”), including, inter alia, a reduced corporate tax rate of 6% on Israeli preferred technology taxable income, as defined in the Investment Law. In order to remain eligible for the tax benefits for a Special Preferred Technology Enterprise, our Israeli subsidiary must continue to meet certain conditions stipulated in the Investment Law and its regulations, as amended. For example, a Special Preferred Technology Enterprise must be part of a group of companies with aggregate annual revenue of at least 10 billion New Israeli Shekels. If Intel does not maintain sufficient holdings in us so that we are a consolidated group with Intel, and if we do not otherwise meet the revenue requirement as a standalone company, we would no longer meet the consolidated group income requirement to maintain our status as a Special Preferred Technology Enterprise and would instead be considered a Preferred Technology Enterprise, resulting in a higher effective corporate tax rate in Israel. If we fail to meet certain additional conditions stipulated in the Investment Law, including a minimal amount or ratio of annual research and development expenditures and research and development employees, as well as having at least 25% of our annual income derived from exports, we would also lose our status as a Preferred Technology Enterprise, resulting in an even higher effective corporate tax rate in Israel. Additionally, if our Israeli subsidiary increases its activities outside of Israel through acquisitions, then its expanded activities might not be eligible for inclusion in future Israeli tax benefit programs.
It may be difficult to enforce a U.S. judgment against our officers and directors named in this prospectus, or to assert U.S. securities laws claims in Israel or serve process on our non-U.S. officers and directors.
Not all of our directors or officers are residents of the United States, and most of their and our assets are located outside the United States. Service of process upon our non-U.S. resident directors and officers and enforcement of judgments obtained in the United States against us or our non-U.S. our directors and officers may be difficult to obtain within the United States. Additionally, we have been informed by our legal counsel in Israel that it may be difficult to assert claims under U.S. securities laws in original actions instituted in Israel or obtain a judgment based on the civil liability provisions of U.S. federal securities laws. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a claim based on a violation of U.S. securities laws against us or our non-U.S. officers and directors because Israel may not be the most appropriate forum to bring such a claim. In addition, even if an Israeli court agrees to hear a claim, it may determine that Israeli law and not U.S. law is applicable to the claim. If U.S. law is found to be applicable, then the content of applicable U.S. law must be proved as a fact, which can be a time-consuming and costly process. Certain matters of procedure will also be governed by Israeli law. There is little binding case law in Israel addressing the matters described above. Additionally, Israeli courts might not enforce judgments rendered outside Israel, which may make it difficult to collect on judgments rendered against us or our non-U.S. officers and directors.
Moreover, an Israeli court will not enforce a non-Israeli judgment if it was given in a state whose laws do not provide for the enforcement of judgments of Israeli courts (subject to exceptional cases), if its enforcement is likely to prejudice the sovereignty or security of the State of Israel, if it was obtained by fraud or in the absence of due process, if it is at variance with another valid judgment that was given in the same matter between the same parties, or if a suit in the same matter between the same parties was pending before a court or tribunal in Israel at the time the foreign action was brought.
Risks Related to our Relationship with Intel and our Dual Class Structure
The dual class structure of our common stock will have the effect of concentrating voting control with Intel, and Intel will own shares of our Class B common stock, representing a majority of the shares of our common stock and approximately    % of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock immediately following this offering. This will limit or preclude your ability to influence corporate matters.
Our Class B common stock will have ten votes per share, and our Class A common stock, which is the stock we are offering in this offering, will have one vote per share. Because of the 10-to-1 voting ratio between our Class B common stock and our Class A common stock, immediately following the offering, Intel, which will be the beneficial holder of         shares of Class B common stock, will beneficially own approximately    % of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock, assuming no exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock (or    % assuming full exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
stock). Because Intel will beneficially hold significantly more than a majority of the combined voting power of our capital stock upon the completion of this offering, it will be able to control all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval.
As a result, for the foreseeable future, Intel will have significant influence over the management and affairs of our company and over the outcome of all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors and significant corporate transactions, such as a merger, consolidation, or sale of substantially all of our assets, even if its stock holdings will be significantly diluted to represent less than 50% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. In addition, this may prevent or discourage unsolicited acquisition proposals or offers for our common stock that you may feel are in your best interest as one of our stockholders. Intel may have interests that differ from yours and may vote in a way with which you disagree, and which may be adverse to your interests. This control may adversely affect the trading price of our Class A common stock. See “Description of Capital Stock.”
We expect to be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of Nasdaq. As a result, we will qualify for, and intend to rely on, exemptions from certain corporate governance standards. You will not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq.
So long as more than 50% of the voting power for the election of our directors is held by an individual, a group or another company, we will qualify as a “controlled company” under listing requirements of Nasdaq. After the completion of this offering, Intel will continue to beneficially hold a majority of the voting power of our outstanding common stock. As a result, we are a “controlled company” under the Nasdaq rules. As a controlled company, we are exempt from certain Nasdaq corporate governance requirements, and we currently intend to rely on such exemptions, including those that would otherwise require our Board of Directors to have a majority of independent directors and require that we establish a compensation committee and nominating committee comprised entirely of independent directors, or otherwise ensure that the compensation of our executive officers and nominees for directors are determined or recommended to our Board of Directors by the independent members of our Board. To the extent we continue to rely on one or more of these exemptions, holders of our Class A common stock will not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq.
Our dual class structure may depress the trading price of our Class A common stock.
We cannot predict whether our dual class structure will result in a lower or more volatile market price of our Class A common stock or in adverse publicity or other adverse consequences. For example, certain index providers have announced restrictions on including companies with multiple-class share structures in certain of their indexes. S&P Dow Jones and FTSE Russell have announced changes to their eligibility criteria for inclusion of shares of public companies on certain indices, including the S&P 500. These changes exclude companies with multiple classes of shares of common stock from being added to these indices. In addition, several stockholder advisory firms have announced their opposition to the use of multiple class structures. As a result, the dual class structure of our common stock may prevent the inclusion of our Class A common stock in these indices and may cause stockholder advisory firms to publish negative commentary about our corporate governance practices or otherwise seek to cause us to change our capital structure. Any such exclusion from indices could result in a less active trading market for our Class A common stock. Any actions or publications by stockholder advisory firms critical of our corporate governance practices or capital structure could also adversely affect the value of our Class A common stock.
We may have conflicts of interest with Intel and, because of Intel’s controlling beneficial ownership interest in our company, we may not be able to resolve such conflicts on terms favorable to us.
Conflicts of interest may arise between Intel and us in a number of areas relating to our ongoing relationship. Potential conflicts of interest that we have identified include the following:

Certain of our directors may have conflicts of interest.   Each of Patrick Gelsinger, Christine Pambianchi, and Saf Yeboah-Amankwah serves both as our director and in a senior management role at Intel. Such directors owe fiduciary duties to our company pursuant to Delaware law, but these
 
42

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
relationships could create, or appear to create, conflicts of interest when these persons are faced with decisions with potentially different implications for Intel and us.

Sale of shares of our common stock.   Intel may decide to sell all or a portion of our shares that it holds to a third party, including to one of our competitors, thereby giving that third-party substantial influence over our business and our affairs and possibly depressing the trading price of our Class A common stock. Such a sale could be in conflict with your interests. Prior to any such time as our Class B common stock is distributed to security holders of Intel in a transaction (including any distribution in exchange for shares of Intel’s or its successor-in-interest’s common stock or other securities) intended to qualify as a distribution under Section 355 of the Code, or any corresponding provision of any successor statute, shares of our Class B common stock will automatically be converted into shares of Class A common stock upon the transfer of such shares of Class B common stock by Intel other than to any of Intel’s successors. See “Description of Capital Stock — Common Stock — Conversion.”

Developing business relationships with Intel’s competitors.   We may from time to time partner with, purchase from, and sell to a number of companies that compete with Intel. These companies may be less willing or unwilling to develop and maintain relationships with us, and may favor our competitors or may view us as competitors, because of our relationship with Intel.

Allocation of business opportunities.   Business opportunities may arise that both we and Intel find attractive, and which would complement our businesses. We may be prevented from taking advantage of new business opportunities that Intel has entered into.

Sale of our products on favorable terms.   Under the terms of the Master Transaction Agreement we will enter into with Intel in connection with this offering, so long as Intel holds at least 20% of our common stock, we will sell Intel our commercially available products, including EyeQ® SoCs, for internal use, but not for resale on a standalone or bundled basis. We and Intel will also agree pursuant to the Master Transaction Agreement to hold the other in most favored status with respect to products purchased or sold for internal use, meaning that the product prices, terms, warranties, and benefits provided between us and Intel shall be comparable to or better than the equivalent terms being offered by the party providing the products to any single, present customer of such party.
Intel will continue to beneficially hold a majority of the voting power of our common stock and we and Intel expect to continue as strategic partners, collaborating on projects to pursue the growth of computing in the automotive sector. Intel may from time to time make strategic decisions that it believes are in the best interests of its business as a whole, including our company. These decisions may be different from the decisions that we would have made on our own. Intel’s decisions with respect to us or our business, including any related party transactions between Intel and us, may be resolved in ways that favor Intel and its stockholders, which may not coincide with the interests of our other stockholders.
Although we intend to enter into the Tax Sharing Agreement with Intel under which our tax liabilities effectively will be determined based upon, subject to certain assumptions, our and/or our subsidiaries’ assets and activities, we nonetheless could be held liable for the tax liabilities of other members of any consolidated, combined or unitary tax group of Intel and/or its subsidiaries.
We have historically been included in Intel’s consolidated group (the “Consolidated Group”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as well as in certain consolidated, combined, or unitary groups that include Intel and/or certain of its subsidiaries for state and local income tax purposes (each, a “Combined Group”). We intend to enter into the Tax Sharing Agreement with Intel that will become effective upon completion of this offering. Pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement, we generally will make payments to Intel such that, with respect to tax returns for any taxable period in which we or any of our subsidiaries are included in the Consolidated Group or any Combined Group, the amount of taxes to be paid by us will be determined by computing the excess (if any) of any taxes due on any such return over the amount that would otherwise be due if such return were recomputed by excluding us and/or our included subsidiaries.
We have previously been included in the Consolidated Group for the most recent annual period and expect to be included in the Consolidated Group following this offering. Each member of a consolidated group during any part of a consolidated return year is jointly and severally liable for tax on the consolidated

return of such year and for any subsequently determined deficiency thereon. Similarly, in some jurisdictions, each member of a consolidated, combined or unitary group for state, local, or foreign income tax purposes is jointly and severally liable for the state, local, or foreign income tax liability of each other member of the consolidated, combined or unitary group. Accordingly, for any period in which we are included in the Consolidated Group or any Combined Group, we could be liable in the event that any income tax liability was incurred, but not discharged, by any other member of any such group.
In order to preserve the ability for Intel to distribute its shares of our Class B common stock pursuant to a tax-free spin-off under U.S. federal income tax law, we may be prevented from pursuing opportunities to raise capital, effectuate acquisitions, or provide equity incentives to our employees, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Under current U.S. federal income tax law, in order to consummate a tax-free spin-off of our stock, Intel would need to have beneficial ownership of our stock representing at least 80% of the total voting power and 80% of each class of non-voting capital stock. As of the date of this prospectus, Intel does not intend or plan to undertake a spin-off of our stock to Intel stockholders. Nevertheless, if Intel were to decide to pursue a possible spin-off, we have agreed to cooperate with Intel and to take any and all actions reasonably requested by Intel in connection with such a transaction. Our rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to any possible spin-off are set forth in the Master Transaction Agreement and Tax Sharing Agreement. For example, in the event Intel completes a spin-off, we have agreed not to take certain actions, such as asset sales or contributions, mergers, stock issuances, or stock sales within the two years following the spin-off without first obtaining the opinion of tax counsel or an IRS ruling to the effect that such actions will not result in the spin-off failing to qualify as a tax-free spin-off. See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions — Intercompany Agreements — Master Transaction Agreement” and “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions — Intercompany Agreements — Tax Sharing Agreement.” Additionally, under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, until the first date on which Intel ceases to beneficially own 20% or more of the outstanding shares of our common stock, the prior affirmative vote or written consent of Intel, as the holder of the Class B common stock, is required in order to authorize us to issue any stock or other equity securities except to our subsidiaries, pursuant to this offering, or pursuant to our employee benefit plans limited to a share reserve of 5% of the outstanding number of shares of our common stock on the immediately preceding December 31. Intel’s intention to retain its ability to effectuate a tax-free spin-off of our stock may cause Intel to decide not to consent to such issuances. See “— Certain corporate actions by us would require the prior consent of Intel, and there can be no guarantee that Intel will consent to such matters, even if they are in our best interests.” These requirements could prevent us from pursuing opportunities to raise capital, effectuate acquisitions, or provide equity incentives to our employees, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Certain corporate actions by us would require the prior consent of Intel, and there can be no guarantee that Intel will consent to such actions, even if they are in our best interests.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that, in addition to any other vote required by law or by our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, until the first date on which Intel ceases to beneficially own 20% or more of the outstanding shares of our common stock, the prior affirmative vote or written consent of Intel as the holder of the Class B common stock is required in order to authorize us to take certain corporate actions. See “Description of Capital Stock — Common Stock —  Approval Rights of Holders of Class B Common Stock.” There can be no guarantee that Intel will consent to such actions, even if they are in our best interests.
We have historically utilized and upon completion of this offering plan to continue to utilize various administrative services and licenses provided by Intel, and if we are unable to continue utilizing such services and/or licenses we may fail to replace them at prices or on terms as favorable as those Intel provides.
We have historically utilized various administrative, financial, and other services provided by Intel. In addition, Mobileye is party to an agreement with Intel under which Mobileye is licensed under patents of other Intel subsidiaries and patents of certain third parties with whom Intel has cross license agreements. Following the completion of this offering, Intel will provide us with services, including administrative,

financial, legal, tax, and other services, pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement and certain technologies and products that may be used in the development, manufacture, and commercialization of our solutions pursuant to the Technology and Services Agreement and LiDAR Commercial Terms Agreement. See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions.” If we are unable to maintain these contractual relationships with Intel, we may fail to replace such services and/or licenses at prices or on terms as favorable as those Intel provides, and that could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Risks Related to this Offering and Our Class A Common Stock
An active trading market for our Class A common stock may never develop or be sustained, which may cause shares of our Class A common stock to trade at a discount from the initial public offering price and you may not be able to resell your shares at or above the initial public offering price.
Since Intel has completed its acquisition of us, prior to this offering, there has not been a public trading market for shares of our Class A common stock. It is possible that an active trading market for our Class A common stock will not develop or, if developed, not be sustained, which would make it difficult for you to sell your shares of Class A common stock at an attractive price or at all. The initial public offering price per share of our Class A common stock will be determined by agreement between us and the underwriters and may not be indicative of the price at which shares of our Class A common stock will trade in the public market after this offering. The market price of our Class A common stock may decline below the initial public offering price, and you may not be able to sell your shares of our Class A common stock at or above the price you paid in this offering or at all.
The market price of our Class A common stock may fluctuate, and you could lose all or part of your investment.
The stock market in general has been, and the market price of our Class A common stock specifically is, subject to fluctuation, whether due to, or irrespective of, our operating results and financial condition. The market price of our Class A common stock on Nasdaq may fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control, including, but not limited to:

announcements by regulators and other safety organizations regarding ADAS, autonomous driving and related technology;

publicized accidents involving ADAS and autonomous driving technology, whether developed by us or our competitors;

market acceptance of our solutions;

the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our management, employees, customers, and operating results;

announcements of the results of research and development projects by us or our competitors;

announcements by others relating to autonomous driving technology and its adoption by OEMs;

development of new competitive systems and products by others;

changes in earnings estimates or recommendations by securities analysts;

developments concerning our intellectual property rights;

loss of key personnel, particularly Professor Shashua;

changes in the cost of satisfying our warranty obligations;

loss of key customers;

disruptions to our and the global supply chain;

macroeconomic irregularities such as worsening inflationary trends, volatile interest rates and labor shortages;

delays between our expenditures to develop and market new or enhanced products and the generation of sales from those products;

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 

changes in the amount that we spend to develop, acquire, or license new products, technologies, or businesses;

changes in our research and development and operating expenditures;

variations in our and our competitors’ results of operations and financial condition;

our sale or proposed sale or the sale or proposed sale by Intel (or other actions taken by Intel) or other significant stockholders of our common stock or other securities in the future; and

general market conditions and other factors, including factors unrelated to our operating performance.
These factors and any corresponding price fluctuations may materially and adversely affect the market price of our shares of Class A common stock and result in substantial losses being incurred by our investors. Market prices for securities of technology companies historically have been very volatile. The market for these securities has from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations for reasons unrelated to the operating performance of any one company. In the past, following periods of market volatility, public company stockholders have often instituted securities class action litigation in the United States. If we were involved in securities litigation, then it could impose a substantial cost upon us and divert the resources and attention of our management from our business.
We have broad discretion over the use of net proceeds from this offering, and we may not use them effectively.
We intend to use a portion of the net proceeds that we receive from this offering to repay approximately $        of indebtedness owed to Intel under the Dividend Note and use the remaining $      (or $      if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock in full) for working capital and general corporate purposes. Our management will have broad discretion in the application of net proceeds from this offering allocated for working capital and general corporate purposes, and you will not have the opportunity as part of your investment decision to assess whether such proceeds are being used appropriately. The failure by our management to apply these proceeds effectively could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.
Other than in connection with the Reorganization, we have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain any future earnings to finance the operation and expansion of our business, and we do not expect to declare or pay any dividends for the foreseeable future.
The requirements of being a public company may strain our resources and divert management’s attention.
As a public company, we will be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) and stock exchange rules promulgated in response to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The requirements of these rules and regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming, or costly and increase demand on our systems and resources. After the completion of this offering, we will be obligated to file with the SEC annual and quarterly information and other reports that are specified in the Exchange Act, and therefore will need to have the ability to prepare financial statements that are compliant with all SEC reporting requirements on a timely basis.
In addition, we will be subject to other reporting and corporate governance requirements, including certain requirements of    and certain provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder, which will impose significant compliance obligations upon us. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls for financial reporting. In order to maintain and, if required, improve our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting to meet this standard, significant resources and management oversight may be required, and management’s attention may be diverted from other business concerns.
Furthermore, though we have been indirectly subject to these requirements previously as a subsidiary of Intel, we might not be successful in implementing these requirements. The increased costs of compliance

with public company reporting requirements and our potential failure to satisfy these requirements could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Failure to establish and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Upon becoming a public company, we will be required to comply with the SEC’s rules implementing Sections 302 and 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which will require management to certify financial and other information in our quarterly and annual reports and, beginning in the first full fiscal year after the completion of this offering, provide an annual management report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, to which our auditors will need to attest in accordance with guidelines set forth by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”). We may in the future identify material weaknesses when evaluating our internal control over financial reporting that we may not be able to remediate in time to meet the applicable deadline imposed upon us for compliance with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Testing and maintaining our internal control over financial reporting may also divert management’s attention from other matters that are important to the operation of our business. In addition, if we fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, as such standards are modified, supplemented, or amended from time to time, then we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We cannot be certain as to the timing of completion of our evaluation, testing and any remediation actions or the impact of the same on our operations. Moreover, any material weakness or other deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting may impede our ability to file timely and accurate reports with the SEC. Any of the above could cause a negative reaction in the financial markets due to a loss of confidence in the reliability of our financial statements. In addition, we may be required to incur costs in improving our internal control system and the hiring of additional personnel. Any such action could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Investors in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution.
The initial public offering price is substantially higher than the pro forma net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately following this offering. Therefore, if you purchase shares of our Class A common stock in this offering, then, based on the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, and the issuance by us of     shares of Class A common stock in this offering, you will experience immediate dilution of $      per share, the difference between the price per share you pay for our Class A common stock and the pro forma net tangible book value per share of our common stock as of December 25, 2021 after giving effect to this offering. Furthermore, if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares, if we issue awards to our employees under our equity incentive plans or if we otherwise issue additional shares of our Class A common stock, then you could experience further dilution. As a result of the dilution to investors purchasing shares in this offering, investors may receive less than the purchase price paid in this offering, if anything, in the event of our liquidation. See “Dilution.”
If securities and industry analysts do not publish research or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, then the stock price and trading volume of our Class A common stock could decline.
The trading market for our Class A common stock will depend, in part, on the research and reports that securities and industry analysts publish about us and our business. Securities and industry analysts do not currently, and may never, cover our company. If securities and industry analysts do not commence coverage of our company following this offering, then the stock price of our Class A common stock would likely be negatively impacted. In the event securities or industry analysts initiate coverage, if one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrade our Class A common stock or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, then the stock price of our Class A common stock would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of our company or fail to publish reports on us regularly, then demand for our stock could decrease, which might cause the stock price and trading volume of our Class A common stock to decline.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
The issuance by us of additional equity securities may dilute your ownership and adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock.
After this offering and the use of proceeds to us therefrom, we will have an aggregate of           authorized but unissued shares of Class A common stock. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will authorize us to issue shares of Class A common stock and rights relating to Class A common stock for the consideration and on the terms and conditions established by our board of directors in its sole discretion, whether in connection with acquisitions or otherwise. In addition, under the terms of the Master Transaction Agreement we will enter into with Intel in connection with this offering, we will grant Intel a continuing right to purchase from us such number of shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock as is necessary for Intel to maintain an aggregate ownership of our common stock representing at least 80.1% of our common stock outstanding following the completion of this offering. See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions — Transactions to be Entered into in Connection with this Offering — Intercompany Agreements — Master Transaction Agreement.” Any common stock that we issue, including under our equity incentive plan or in connection with the Master Transaction Agreement, would dilute the percentage ownership held by the investors who purchase Class A common stock in this offering.
In the future, we may attempt to obtain financing or to further increase our capital resources by issuing additional shares of our Class A common stock or securities convertible into shares of our Class A common stock or by offering debt or other securities. We could also issue shares of our Class A common stock or securities convertible into our Class A common stock or debt or other securities in connection with acquisitions or other strategic transactions. Issuing additional shares of our Class A common stock or securities convertible into shares of our Class A common stock or debt or other securities may dilute the economic and voting rights of our existing stockholders and would likely reduce the market price of our Class A common stock.
Upon liquidation, holders of debt securities and preferred shares, if issued, and lenders with respect to other borrowings would receive a distribution of our distributable assets prior to the holders of our common stock. Debt securities convertible into equity securities could be subject to adjustments in the conversion ratio pursuant to which certain events may increase the number of equity securities issuable upon conversion. Preferred shares, if issued, could have a preference with respect to liquidating distribution or preferences with respect to dividend payments that could limit our ability to pay dividends to the holders of our common stock. Our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, which may adversely affect the amount, timing, and nature of our future offerings. As a result, holders of our Class A common stock bear the risk that our future offerings may reduce the market price of our Class A common stock and dilute their stockholdings in us.
Delaware law and certain provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws that will be in effect at the completion of this offering could make a merger, tender offer, or proxy contest difficult, thereby adversely affecting the market price of our common stock.
Under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, we will opt out of the anti-takeover provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) upon the completion of this offering. If Intel’s holdings in our stock are reduced so that Intel no longer maintains at least 15% of the combined voting power of our common stock, then we will no longer opt out of Section 203 of the DGCL, which could discourage, delay, or prevent a change in control by prohibiting us from engaging in a business combination with an interested stockholder for a period of three years after the person becomes an interested stockholder, even if a change of control would be beneficial to our stockholders. In addition, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws will contain provisions that may make the acquisition of our company more difficult, including the following:

our dual class common stock structure, which provides Intel, as the holder of our Class B common stock, with the ability to significantly influence the outcome of matters requiring stockholder approval, even if they own significantly less than a majority of the shares of our outstanding common stock;

if Intel’s holdings in our stock are reduced so that it no longer maintains a majority of the combined voting power of our common stock, our stockholders will only be able to take action at a meeting of stockholders and not by written consent;
 
48

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 

vacancies on our board of directors will be able to be filled only by our board of directors and not by stockholders, provided, however, that vacancies on our board of directors caused by an action of stockholders may only be filled by a vote of the stockholders until Intel’s holdings in our stock are reduced so that it no longer maintains a majority of the combined voting power of our common stock;

beginning at the first annual meeting of stockholders following any such time that Intel’s holdings in our stock no longer represent at least 20% of the aggregate number of shares of our outstanding common stock, our board of directors will be classified into three classes of directors with staggered three-year terms;

beginning at the first annual meeting of stockholders following any such time that Intel’s holdings in our stock no longer represent at least 20% of the aggregate number of shares of our outstanding common stock, directors will only be able to be removed from office for cause;

so long as Intel’s holdings in our stock represent at least 20% of the aggregate number of shares of our outstanding common stock, consent by holders of a majority of our Class B common stock will be required for consolidations or mergers;

no provision in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or amended and restated bylaws provides for cumulative voting, which limits the ability of minority stockholders to elect director candidates;

only the Chairman of our Board of Directors, our Chief Executive Officer, or our Secretary upon written request by a majority of our Board of Directors are authorized to call a special meeting of stockholders;

our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that certain litigation against us can only be brought in Delaware unless we otherwise consent;

nothing in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation precludes future issuances without approval by holders of shares of our Class A common stock of the authorized but unissued shares of our common stock, though approval by holders of a majority of our Class B common stock will be required for such issuances for so long as Intel’s holdings in our stock represent at least 20% of the aggregate number of shares of outstanding common stock, subject to certain exclusions;

our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes undesignated preferred stock, the terms of which may be established and shares of which may be issued, without the approval of the holders of our capital stock; and

advance notice procedures apply for stockholders to nominate candidates for election as directors or to bring matters before an annual meeting of stockholders.
These anti-takeover defenses could discourage, delay, or prevent a transaction involving a change in control of our company. These provisions could also discourage proxy contests and make it more difficult for stockholders to elect directors of their choosing and to cause us to take other corporate actions they desire, any of which, under certain circumstances, could limit the opportunity for our stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of our Class A common stock, and could also affect the price that some investors are willing to pay for our Class A common stock.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will contain exclusive forum provisions for certain claims, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or employees.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation that will be in effect upon completion of this offering, to the fullest extent permitted by law, will provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for (1) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of us, (2) any action asserting a claim of breach of a duty (including any fiduciary duty) owed by any of our current or former directors, officers, stockholders, employees or agents to us or our stockholders, (3) any action asserting a claim against us or any of our current or former directors, officers, stockholders, employees or agents arising out of or relating to

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
any provision of the DGCL or our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or our amended and restated bylaws, or (4) any action asserting a claim against us or any of our current or former directors, officers, stockholders, employees or agents governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the State of Delaware. As described below, this provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or Exchange Act, or rules and regulations thereunder.
Moreover, Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all claims brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder and our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that the federal district courts of the United States will, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. Our decision to adopt such a federal forum provision followed a decision by the Supreme Court of the State of Delaware holding that such provisions are facially valid under Delaware law. While there can be no assurance that federal or state courts will follow the holding of the Delaware Supreme Court or determine that our federal forum provision should be enforced in a particular case, application of our federal forum provision means that suits brought by our stockholders to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act must be brought in federal court and cannot be brought in state court.
Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all claims brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder and our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that neither the exclusive forum provision nor our federal forum provision applies to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act. Accordingly, actions by our stockholders to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder must be brought in federal court. Our stockholders will not be deemed to have waived our compliance with the federal securities laws and the regulations promulgated thereunder.
Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in any of our securities shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to our exclusive forum provisions, including the federal forum provision. Additionally, our stockholders cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. These provisions may limit our stockholders’ ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum they find favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or other employees, which may discourage lawsuits against us and our directors, officers, and other employees and agents. Alternatively, if a court were to find the choice of forum provision contained in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could harm our business, operating results, and financial condition.
General Risks
Changes in our effective tax rates may reduce our net income.
A number of factors can increase our effective tax rates, which could reduce our net income, including:

changes in the volume and mix of profits earned and location of assets across jurisdictions with varying tax rates and the associated impacts of legislative actions affecting multi-national enterprises;

changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, and in associated deferred tax asset valuation allowance;

adjustments to income taxes upon finalization of tax returns;

increases in expenses not deductible for tax purposes, including equity-based compensation or impairments of goodwill;

changes in available tax credits;

changes in our ability to secure new, or renew existing, tax holidays and incentives;

changes in U.S. federal, state, or foreign tax laws or their interpretation, including changes in the U.S. to the taxation of non-U.S. income and expenses and changes resulting from the adoption by countries of OECD recommendations or other legislative actions;

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 

changes in accounting standards; and

those described under “Risks Related to Operations in Israel — The tax benefits that are available to us under Israeli law require us to meet various conditions and may be terminated or reduced in the future, which could increase our costs and taxes.”
Global or regional conditions can adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We and our suppliers have manufacturing, assembly and testing, research and development, sales and other operations in Israel and several other countries, and some of our business activities are concentrated in one or more geographic areas. Moreover, 74% of our total revenue in 2021 was derived outside of the United States, with China, Germany, and the United Kingdom making up 19%, 19%, and 14%, of such revenue respectively, based on the location of the customer to which the product was shipped. For the three months ended April 2, 2022, 70% of our revenue was derived outside of the United States, with China, Germany, and the United Kingdom making up 23%, 6%, and 18%, of such revenue respectively, based on the location of the customer to which the product was shipped. As a result, our business, operating results, and financial condition, including our ability to produce, assemble, test, design, develop, or sell products, and the demand for our solutions, are at times adversely affected by a number of global and regional factors outside of our control.
Adverse changes in global or regional economic conditions periodically occur, including recession or slowing growth, changes, or uncertainty in fiscal, monetary, or trade policy, higher interest rates, tighter credit, inflation, lower capital expenditures by businesses including on IT infrastructure, increases in unemployment and lower consumer confidence and spending. Adverse changes in economic conditions, including those related to the pandemic, can significantly harm demand for our solutions and make it more challenging to forecast our operating results and make business decisions, including regarding prioritization of investments in our business. An economic downturn or increased uncertainty may also lead to increased credit and collectability risks, higher borrowing costs or reduced availability of capital markets, reduced liquidity, adverse impacts on our suppliers, failures of counterparties including financial institutions and insurers, asset impairments and declines in the value of our financial instruments.
We can be adversely affected by other global and regional factors that periodically occur, including:

geopolitical and security issues, such as armed conflict and civil or military unrest, political instability, human rights concerns and terrorist activity;

natural disasters, public health issues (including the COVID-19 pandemic) and other catastrophic events;

inefficient infrastructure and other disruptions, such as supply chain interruptions and large-scale outages or unreliable provision of services from utilities, transportation, data hosting or telecommunications providers;

formal or informal imposition of new or revised export, import or doing-business regulations, including trade sanctions, tariffs, and changes in the ability to obtain export licenses, which could be changed without notice;

government restrictions on, or nationalization of, our operations in any country, or restrictions on our ability to repatriate earnings from a particular country;

adverse changes relating to government grants, tax credits or other government incentives, including more favorable incentives provided to competitors;

differing employment practices and labor issues;

ineffective legal protection of our intellectual property rights in certain countries;

local business and cultural factors that differ from our current standards and practices;

continuing uncertainty regarding social, political, immigration and tax and trade policies; and

fluctuations in the market values of any of our investments, which can be negatively affected by liquidity, credit deterioration or losses, interest rate changes, financial results, political risk, sovereign risk, or other factors.

Catastrophic events can adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Our operations and business, and those of our customers and direct and indirect vendors and suppliers of OEMs, can be disrupted by natural disasters, industrial accidents, public health issues (including the COVID-19 pandemic), cybersecurity incidents, interruptions of service from utilities, transportation, telecommunications or IT systems providers, production equipment failures or other catastrophic events. For example, we have at times experienced disruptions in our production processes as a result of power outages, improperly functioning equipment, and disruptions in supply of raw materials or components, including due to cybersecurity incidents affecting our suppliers. Global climate change can result in certain natural disasters occurring more frequently or with greater intensity, such as drought, wildfires, storms, sea-level rise, and flooding. The long-term effects of climate change on the global economy and the IT industry in particular are unclear, but could be severe.
Catastrophic events could make it difficult or impossible to produce or deliver products to our customers, receive production materials from our suppliers or perform critical functions, which could adversely affect our revenue and require significant recovery time and expenditures to resume operations. While we maintain business recovery plans, some of our systems are not fully redundant and we cannot be sure that our plans will fully protect us from such disruptions. Furthermore, even if our operations are unaffected or recover quickly, if our customers or suppliers cannot timely resume their own operations due to a catastrophic event, we may experience reduced or cancelled orders or disruptions to our supply chain that would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We are covered by Intel’s insurance coverage for a variety of property, casualty, and other risks. The types and amounts of our insurance coverage vary depending on availability, cost, and decisions with respect to risk retention. Some of the policies under which we are covered have large deductibles and broad exclusions. In addition, one or more insurance providers may be unable or unwilling to pay a claim. Intel may also discontinue our insurance coverage and we may be unable to find replacement insurance on acceptable terms or at all, or claims by Intel under these policies may exhaust the available policy limits. Losses not covered by insurance may be large, which would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. We believe that these factors include, but are not limited to, adverse changes in general economic or market conditions and other one-time events and other important factors set forth under “Risk Factors.” Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in our forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this prospectus, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information.
These statements are inherently uncertain and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.
You should read this prospectus and the documents that we reference in this prospectus and have filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity, performance and achievements may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

USE OF PROCEEDS
We expect to receive net proceeds from this offering of approximately $      million (or approximately $      million if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock in full), after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, based on an assumed initial public offering price of $      per share of Class A common stock (the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover of this prospectus).
We intend to use a portion of the net proceeds that we receive from this offering to repay approximately $        of indebtedness under the Dividend Note and use the remaining $      (or $      if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock in full) for working capital and general corporate purposes. Under the terms of the Master Transaction Agreement we will enter into with Intel in connection with this offering, immediately after completion of this offering and on a pro forma basis after all expenses of this offering have been paid (and after giving effect to any repayment of any indebtedness by us to Intel and any other transactions contemplated to occur substantially concurrently with this offering), Intel agrees to ensure that we will have $       in cash, cash equivalents, or marketable securities. The Dividend Note is scheduled to mature on April 21, 2025 and will accrue interest at a rate equal to 1.26% per annum. The Dividend Note is being issued in connection with our Reorganization, as described under “Prospectus Summary — Reorganization.”
A $1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed initial public offering price per share would increase (decrease) the estimated net proceeds to us by approximately $      million (or approximately $      million if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock in full), assuming that the number of shares of our Class A common stock sold by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same and after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. Similarly, each increase (decrease) of 1,000,000 shares in the number of shares of our Class A common stock offered by us would increase (decrease) the net proceeds to us from this offering by approximately $      million, assuming that the assumed initial public offering price remains the same, and after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
DIVIDEND POLICY
In connection with the Reorganization, on April 21, 2022, we distributed to Intel the Dividend Note, pursuant to which we have agreed to pay Intel an aggregate of $3.5 billion. We intend to use a portion of the net proceeds that we receive from this offering to repay indebtedness under the Dividend Note. See “Use of Proceeds.” In connection with the Reorganization, on May 12, 2022, we declared and paid the Dividend in an aggregate amount of $336 million to Intel, net of $14 million of cash paid to tax authorities to settle related tax obligations.
Following the completion of this offering, we intend to retain any future earnings and do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to this Offering and Our Class A Common Stock — We do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.”
Any declaration and payment of future dividends to holders of our common stock will be at the sole discretion of our board of directors and will depend on many factors, including economic conditions, our financial condition and operating results, our available cash and current and anticipated cash needs, capital requirements, legal, tax and regulatory restrictions, including restrictive covenants contained in certain of our subsidiaries’ credit facilities, and such other factors as our board of directors may deem relevant.
Under Delaware law, dividends may be payable only out of surplus, which is calculated as our net assets less our liabilities and our capital, or, if we have no surplus, out of our net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared and/or the preceding fiscal year.

DILUTION
If you invest in shares of our Class A common stock in this offering, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value per share of our Class A common stock upon the completion of this offering. Dilution results from the fact that the per share offering price of the shares of our Class A common stock is substantially in excess of the pro forma net tangible book value per share after this offering.
Our net tangible book value as of April  2, 2022 was $2,122 million, or $      per share of Class A common stock. Net tangible book value represents total tangible assets less total liabilities. Tangible assets represent total assets excluding goodwill and other intangible assets. Net tangible book value per share represents net tangible book value divided by the aggregate number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately prior to this offering.
After giving effect to the pro forma adjustments described in the section titled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information”, our pro forma net tangible book value as of April  2, 2022 would have been approximately $      million, or approximately $      per share of Class A common stock. After giving effect to these pro forma adjustments, including the sale of           shares of our Class A common stock in this offering (assuming the underwriters do not exercise the option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock) at an assumed initial public offering price of $      per share of Class A common stock (the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus), and after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, and the application of such net proceeds as described under “Use of Proceeds,” our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of April  2, 2022 would have been approximately $      million, or approximately $      per share of Class A common stock. This represents an immediate increase in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value of $      per share of Class A common stock to our existing stockholder and an immediate dilution (i.e., the difference between the offering price and the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value after this offering) to investors participating in this offering of $      per share of Class A common stock.
The following table illustrates the per share dilution to investors participating in this offering:
Assumed initial public offering price per share
      
$       
Net tangible book deficit per share as of April  2, 2022
$
Decrease in net tangible book value per share attributable to the pro forma adjustments referred to above
Pro forma net tangible book value per share before completion of this offering
Increase in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share attributable to investors participating in this offering and the use of the net proceeds from this offering
Pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share
Dilution in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share to investors participating in this offering(1)
$
(1)
Dilution is determined by subtracting pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share from the initial public offering price paid by an investor participating in this offering.
The following table summarizes on a pro forma as adjusted basis as of April  2, 2022, the total number of shares of common stock owned by our existing stockholder and to be owned by the investors participating in this offering, the total consideration paid and the average price per share paid by our existing stockholder and to be paid by the investors participating in this offering at $      per share of Class A common stock, the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, calculated before deducting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses:

A $1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed initial public offering price of $      per share, which is the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, would increase (decrease) our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of April  2, 2022 by approximately $      million, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share by $      per share and the dilution in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share to new investors in this offering by $      per share, assuming the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses.
A 1.0 million share increase (decrease) in the number of shares of Class A common stock offered by us would increase (decrease), as applicable, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of April  2, 2022 by approximately $    million, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share by $    per share and the dilution in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share to new investors in this offering by $    per share, assuming that the assumed initial public offering price of $    per share, which is the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses.
If the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock in full at the assumed initial public offering price of $      per share, which is the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, assuming the number of shares offered by us (as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus) remains the same, and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering would be approximately $      per share, and the dilution per share to investors purchasing shares of common stock in this offering would be approximately $      per share.
Immediately following the completion of this offering, our issued and outstanding common stock will be held as follows:           shares of our Class A common stock (or           if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock in full), representing all of the issued and outstanding shares of our Class A common stock, will be held by investors in this offering; and           shares of our Class B common stock, representing all of the issued and outstanding shares of our Class B common stock, will be beneficially owned by Intel.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information consists of an unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of April 2, 2022, and unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and the year ended December 25, 2021.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of April 2, 2022 presents Mobileye Group’s combined financial position after giving pro forma effect to the Reorganization, as described below, this offering and the use of the net proceeds from this offering, as described below (collectively, the “Transactions”), as if the Transactions occurred on April 2, 2022. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and the year ended December 25, 2021 present Mobileye Group’s combined results of operations after giving pro forma effect to the Transactions as if the Transactions occurred on December 27, 2020, the first day of fiscal year 2021.
The following unaudited pro forma combined financial information has been prepared in conformity with Article 11 of Regulation S-X and is based on currently available information and certain estimates and assumptions. The adjustments in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information have been identified and presented to provide relevant information necessary for an illustrative understanding of Mobileye Global Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries upon consummation of the Transactions. Assumptions and estimates underlying the unaudited pro forma adjustments set forth in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are described in the accompanying notes.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of financial results that would have been attained had the Transactions occurred on the dates indicated above and does not project our results of operations or financial position for any future period or as of any future date. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information also does not give effect to the potential impact of any operating synergies or cost savings that may result from the Transactions. Our future results of operations or financial position may vary significantly from the results reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations and should not be relied on as an indication of our results after the consummation of the Transactions. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Relationship with Intel and Our Dual Class Structure —Our historical financial information may not be representative of our results as an independent public company.” However, we believe that the assumptions provide a reasonable basis for presenting the effects of the Transactions as contemplated and that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.
The Reorganization and This Offering
In connection with this offering, Mobileye Global Inc., the issuer, was incorporated to serve as the holding company that owns Mobileye Group. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information reflects the impact of certain transactions, which comprise the following:

the legal purchase by us from Intel of 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of the Moovit entities, which we completed on May 31, 2022;

the declaration and payment of the Dividend, net of cash paid to tax authorities to settle related tax obligations, which we completed on May 12, 2022;

the distribution to Intel of the Dividend Note, which we completed on April 21, 2022;

the legal entity reorganization of our operations comprising the Mobileye Group business so that they are all under the single parent entity, Mobileye Global Inc., and the filing and effectiveness of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation;

restricted stock units will be awarded to employees; and

the execution of the Intercompany Agreements with Intel, whereby, among other matters, Intel will continue to provide certain administrative and operational services, including the supply and license of certain technologies, whereby we will supply Intel with certain technologies, and whereby Intel’s

and our respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to all tax matters will be governed (including tax liabilities, tax attributes, tax returns and tax audits).
Other events we expect to occur in connection with the offering are summarized below:

the sale by us of        shares of our Class A common stock in this offering (assuming the underwriters do not exercise the option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock) at an assumed initial public offering price of $      per share (the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover of this prospectus), after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us; and

the use of a portion of the net proceeds that we receive from this offering to repay approximately $     of indebtedness under the Dividend Note.
The historical combined financial information has been derived from the combined financial statements of Mobileye Group and accompanying notes to the combined financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. Mobileye Global Inc. was formed in January 2022 and has no, and will not have any, material assets or results of operations until the completion of the Reorganization. Therefore, its historical financial information is not included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. Following this offering, Mobileye Global Inc. will be a holding company with no operations and no material assets of its own other than its ownership interest in Mobileye Group.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read in conjunction with the sections of this prospectus titled “Basis of Presentation,” “Prospectus Summary—Reorganization,” “Use of Proceeds,” “Capitalization,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions,” and the historical combined financial statements and accompanying notes, included elsewhere in this prospectus. All pro forma adjustments and their underlying assumptions are described more fully in the notes to these unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information
1.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of April 2, 2022 gives pro forma effect to the Transactions as if they occurred on April 2, 2022. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and the year ended December 25, 2021 gives pro forma effect to the Transactions as if they occurred on December 27, 2020, the first day of fiscal year 2021.
Mobileye has largely continued to operate as a standalone business and has not been fully integrated into Intel. Management believes the pro forma adjustments to reflect the operations and financial position of Mobileye as an autonomous entity under Regulation S-X are not expected to be material. We estimate that the total costs of doing business to operate as an autonomous entity under the Intercompany Agreements will reasonably approximate the total costs that have been attributed and allocated to our historical combined financial statements. Accordingly, we have not presented autonomous entity pro forma adjustments.
Management has made significant estimates and assumptions in its determination of the pro forma adjustments based on information available as of the date of this prospectus. As the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared based on these preliminary estimates, the final amounts recorded may differ materially from the information presented as additional information becomes available. Management considers this basis of presentation to be reasonable under the circumstances. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect any cost savings or operating synergies that may result from the Transactions.
2.
Adjustments Reflected in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information
The Company made the following pro forma adjustments and assumptions in the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet:
(A)   Reflects the distribution related to the Dividend in an aggregate amount of $336 million to Intel, which we completed on May 12, 2022, of which $226 million is paid through the settlement of the related party loan and $110 million is effectively settled in cash.
(B)   Reflects the $14 million cash payment to tax authorities to settle tax obligations related to the Dividend.
(C)   Reflects the settlement of approximately $900 million of our related party loan in connection with the legal purchase of 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of the Moovit entities, which we completed on May 31, 2022. The settlement of the related party loan will be treated as an equity distribution from us to Intel.
(D)    Reflects the dividend distribution to Intel and the associated indebtedness incurred by us under the Dividend Note of approximately $3.5 billion, which we completed on April 21, 2022.

Overview
Mobileye is a leader in the development and deployment of ADAS and autonomous driving technologies and solutions. We pioneered ADAS technology more than 20 years ago and have continuously expanded the scope of our ADAS offerings, while leading the evolution to autonomous driving solutions.
Our portfolio of solutions is built upon a comprehensive suite of purpose-built software and hardware technologies designed to provide the capabilities needed to make the future of ADAS and autonomous driving a reality. These technologies can be harnessed to deliver mission-critical capabilities at the edge and in the cloud, advancing the safety of road users, and revolutionizing the driving experience and the movement of people and goods globally.
As of the April 2, 2022, our solutions had been installed in approximately 800 vehicle models (including local country, year, and other vehicle model variations), and our SoCs had been deployed in over 100 million vehicles. We are actively working with more than 50 OEMs worldwide on the implementation of our ADAS solutions, and we announced over 40 new design wins in 2021 alone. We estimate, based on our existing design wins through April 2, 2022, that our ADAS solutions will be deployed in more than an additional 250 million vehicles by 2030, including approximately 50 million vehicles based on our 2021 design wins. These estimates are based on projections of future production volumes that were provided by the OEMs at the time of sourcing our design wins with them for the models related to those design wins. These estimates may deviate from actual production volumes (which may be higher or lower than the estimates) and do not include design wins after April 2,2022. We currently ship a variety of ADAS solutions to 13 of the 15 largest automakers in the world in addition to many smaller OEMs, and we are recognized for our top-rated safety solutions globally. For example, 66% of Euro New Car Assessment Programs (“NCAP”) 5-star rated vehicle models for 2018-2021 are equipped with our solutions.
In January 2022, we announced a design win of our consumer AV system, Mobileye Chauffeur™, with Zeeker, Geely Group’s premium electric vehicle brand. Mobileye Chauffeur is expected to be capable of “eyes-off/hands-free” driving with a human driver still in the driver’s seat, in a gradually expanding operational driving domain, and is expected to use surrounding imaging radars and front-facing LiDAR, but may require driver intervention in certain situations. We believe that this is an early sign of broad interest in consumer-level eyes-off/hands-free driving. Building upon Mobileye Chauffeur™, we are developing Mobileye Drive™, our Level 4 self-driving system targeted for fleet-owned AMaaS and goods delivery networks. Mobileye Drive™ will encompass our core autonomous driving technologies and will deliver the driving functions without the need for any in-vehicle human intervention by adding teleoperability and by minimizing cases where human input would be required. We are working to deploy Mobileye Drive™ through various business-to-business and business-to-consumer channels through the formation of collaborations with potential partners around the world.

Industry Firsts for Over a Decade
[MISSING IMAGE: tm227410d6-lc_industry4c.jpg]
In 2021, we: (1) launched our Mobileye SuperVision™ solution, which is our Premium Driver-Assist offering; (2) announced the industry’s first Level 4 autonomous system program design win with our Mobileye Drive™ solution; and (3) announced the expected initial commercial deployment of our AMaaS offering in Munich and Tel Aviv together with Moovit in addition to our current testing sites in China, Israel, Detroit, Miami, Munich, Paris, Stuttgart and Tokyo.
Our Business Model
We currently derive substantially all of our revenue from our commercially deployed ADAS solutions. In the future, propelled by our next generation AV-on-Chip SoC, which we call EyeQ Ultra™, our surround computer vision Mobileye SuperVision™ solution and our True Redundancy™ architecture, we believe that we will be positioned to deliver an autonomous driving solution that can enable the mass adoption of AV.
We generate the vast majority of our revenue from the sale of our EyeQ® SoCs to OEMs through sales to Tier 1 automotive suppliers. We typically sell our products with volume-based pricing and recognize the revenue and costs associated with our products upon shipment.
We invest significant time and other resources early in the process of new program sourcing as part of our relationship with an OEM. We typically have visibility into the number of models that are expected to include our products at least two to three years in advance based on OEM information provided during the sourcing and nomination process, although there is no contractual commitment by the OEM to purchase particular volumes, and programs are subject to changes with respect to timing and volumes. The revenue that we may recognize in any given year is attributable to program design wins in previous years.
We partner with STMicroelectronics, a leading supplier and innovator of semiconductor devices for automotive applications, in manufacturing, design, and research and development. We have co-developed our family of EyeQ® SoCs with STMicroelectronics. We have also established a relationship with Quanta Computer to develop and assemble our ECUs, including the design for our Mobileye SuperVision™ solution, which includes our EyeQ®5 SoCs manufactured by STMicroelectronics.
Our close partnership with Intel exists on multiple fronts. With Intel, we have access to unique and differentiating technologies such as proprietary silicon photonics fabrication technologies, which we may leverage for the early development of our FMCW LiDAR, which has the potential to replace alternative third-party LiDAR sensors to further enhance the performance of our sensor suite. We may also license certain technologies from Intel that support design and development of our software-defined radar, including Intel’s mmWave technologies. Additionally, we intend to explore a collaboration with Intel on a technology

platform to integrate our EyeQ® SoC with Intel’s market leading central compute capability, with plans to utilize Intel Foundry Services’ advanced packaging capabilities. This potential platform is intended to enable functions essential to safety, entertainment, and cloud connectivity. Intel’s strength in government affairs and policy development around the world will continue to be of significant value to us as we collaborate with regulators who are preparing frameworks to enable commercial deployment of AVs.
Key Factors Affecting Our Performance
We believe there are several important factors that have affected and that we expect to continue to affect our results of operations:
Global demand for automotive vehicles.   Our business performance is related to global automotive sales and automotive vehicle production by our OEM customers. Economic conditions in North America, Europe and Asia can have a large impact on the production volume of new vehicles, and, accordingly, have an impact on our revenue. Our OEM customers’ production can vary from period to period due to global demand, market conditions and competitive conditions, as well as other factors, including the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. While the automotive industry is showing recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, with approximately 3% growth in global vehicle production year over year in 2021, production in 2021 was still approximately 13% below the 2019 level. However, ADAS volumes have grown faster in recent years than the overall automotive market as ADAS penetration rates have increased, and we believe that we will continue to benefit from that trend. We expect to continue to capitalize on our strong and collaborative relationships with OEMs and Tier 1s to expand our presence in key markets and capture the long-term growth opportunities in those markets.
Design wins with new and existing customers.   Global OEMs are continuously looking for innovative ways to improve the customer appeal and safety of their vehicles. Additional program design wins for production programs are important to our future revenue growth. However, the revenue generated by each design win and the time necessary to achieve a design win can vary significantly. To achieve program design wins, we must maintain our technological leadership and continue to deliver differentiated solutions versus our competition through investment in research and development. Together with Tier 1 automotive suppliers, we work closely with OEMs to understand their solution requirements and have built close long-term relationships with them extending across multiple generations of EyeQ® products, though there is no guarantee that our customers will purchase our solutions in any certain quantity or at any certain price even after we achieve design wins. As of April 2, 2022, our solutions had been installed in approximately 800 vehicle models (including local country, year, and other vehicle model variations), and our SoCs had been deployed in over 100 million vehicles. We are actively working with more than 50 OEMs worldwide on the implementation of our ADAS solutions, and we announced over 40 new design wins in 2021.
Investment in technology leadership and product development.   We believe our ability to continue to develop and design highly advanced and cost-efficient ADAS and AV solutions will position us to extend our technology leadership and encourage greater adoption of our solutions by enabling greater levels of autonomy. We also believe that our roadmap for future generations of EyeQ® SoCs and advanced systems will ultimately power autonomous driving solutions. The EyeQ® family design further enables scalable ECU architectures, supporting a variety of ADAS solution architectures, and our recently announced EyeQ Ultra™ AV-on-Chip is designed to host the full workload of autonomous driving, while meeting stringent cost and power efficiency requirements. We expect that our development of software-defined radar will provide a significant cost advantage by eliminating the need for multiple high-cost LiDARs around the vehicle and require only a single front-facing LiDAR, significantly lowering the overall cost of the required sensors compared to solutions that use LiDAR centric or LiDAR-only systems. Together with Intel, we also are currently in the early stages of development of FMCW LiDAR, which has the potential to replace alternative third-party LiDAR to further enhance the performance of our sensor suite. We believe the ability of our foundational technology to provide a low-cost scale solution with low power-consumption, both from an on-board technology and sensor suite perspective, will be critical to enabling the mass adoption of autonomous driving solutions. While our significant investments in these technologies may not result in revenue in the near term, we believe these investments will position us for revenue growth over time.
Regulation for ADAS and autonomous driving solutions.   Demand for our solutions is influenced by the impact of regulation and the ratings systems deployed by the various NCAPs, particularly the Euro
 
71

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
NCAP and the U.S. NCAP, administered by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. As these NCAPs demand more ADAS applications such as automatic emergency braking, OEMs will increasingly include ADAS as a standard feature in their models to maintain or to achieve the highest safety ratings. In many countries, these safety assessments have created a “market for safety” as car manufacturers seek to demonstrate that their models satisfy the NCAPs’ highest ratings. We expect national NCAPs to continue to add specific ADAS applications to their evaluation items over the next several years, led by the Euro NCAP. In recent years, as regulatory requirements and NCAP ratings have increased, OEMs have also begun to highlight their safety features as a competitive advantage. We are recognized for our top-rated safety with 66% of Euro NCAP 5 star rated vehicle models for 2018-2021 equipped with our solutions. As additional regulations are implemented around the world, we expect this to lead to increased global adoption of ADAS, and we believe that we are well positioned to benefit from such increasing safety regulations globally, particularly due to the verifiable nature of our current and future solutions.
Fully autonomous vehicles are still nascent, and regulation of autonomous driving is evolving globally on both a local and national level. We believe that regulatory bodies will demand that AV undergo certain validation and audit requirements before autonomous driving is permitted. The potential impact of regulatory requirements and initiatives on the timing for widespread adoption of fully autonomous driving and on the cost of developing and introducing autonomous driving solutions is uncertain. RSS is our framework that informs our driving policy and formalizes a driving safety concept. Our RSS framework and decision-making engine have inspired a global standardization effort of AV safety including IEEE 2846, which is an industry working group that we lead. We are actively engaged in AV regulations globally as they have implications for the pace at which autonomous driving technologies may be deployed as well as which AV technology validation and audit requirements must be met. Importantly, we believe RSS, which is a pragmatic method that is architected to deliver a provably acceptable level of risk defined by governments, will facilitate standardization efforts worldwide as AV deployments accelerate. In addition to impacting the pace at which autonomous driving technologies are deployed, we expect regulations to impact our financial performance on an ongoing basis over time once autonomous driving gains market adoption. We cannot provide any assurance how any such regulations will impact us and the extent of such impact, particularly if autonomous driving is prohibited in certain areas.
Consumer adoption of our ADAS and autonomous driving solutions.   Our financial performance is in part driven by public awareness and demand for ADAS solutions. Over time we expect autonomous driving solutions to contribute meaningfully to our revenue growth. As a result, consumers’ demand for, and willingness to adopt, ADAS and autonomous driving technologies will significantly impact our financial performance. We believe that our leadership position in ADAS positions us to continue to set the standard for advanced autonomous solutions and will help us benefit from increasing consumer confidence in and demand for autonomous technology over time.
Solution mix, pricing, and product costs.   Solution mix is among the most important factors affecting our revenue and gross margin, as our prices vary significantly across our solutions. The price of our solutions depends on the bundle of applications that are included in the specific product. Our solutions have different margin profiles. As we develop and sell full systems that include hardware beyond EyeQ® SoCs, we expect that our gross margin will decrease on a percentage basis because of the greater hardware content. However, as a result of a higher expected selling price for such systems, we expect our gross profit per unit will increase on a dollar basis.
ASPs vary based on a solution’s applications and complexity. As a particular solution matures and unit volumes increase, we expect its ASP to decline. In addition, there are generally step-downs in pricing over periods of production as volumes ramp up. While individual solution ASPs may decline, we seek to continually offer new features and functionality and increase the value that our solutions offer to OEM customers as we target new design win opportunities manage the life cycles of existing solutions and create new ADAS categories with advanced features. We believe our differentiated and scalable solutions consistently enhanced by additional features can enable us to maintain or increase overall ASPs over time.
The cost of input materials and manufacturing costs are significant factors affecting our gross margin. Material costs are affected by a variety of factors, including the availability of sufficient supply to meet market demand. For example, in late 2021, semiconductor fabrication costs increased as a result of a global supply shortage that began in 2020 and is continuing, and our gross margin has been and may continue to be affected

by our ability to offset these and any future cost increases through realizing pricing increases on our solutions and achieving decreases in other production costs. We work closely with STMicroelectronics and Quanta on a continuous basis to manage material costs, increase yields and improve manufacturing, assembly, and test costs.
Supply and manufacturing capacity.   Our solutions are dependent on the global semiconductor supply chain. The continued and timely supply of input materials, the availability of manufacturing capacity, and packaging and testing services at reasonable prices impact our ability to meet customer demand. Supply chain disruptions, shortages of raw material, such as wafers and substrates, and manufacturing limitations as a result of COVID-19 or other factors could limit our ability to meet customer demand and result in delayed, reduced, or canceled orders. The semiconductor industry is experiencing widespread shortages of substrates and other components and available foundry manufacturing capacity, and we anticipate that such shortages will continue. During 2021, STMicroelectronics, our sole supplier of EyeQ® SoCs, was not able to meet our demand for EyeQ® SoCs, causing a significant reduction in our inventory level, and we expect we will continue to experience a shortfall of chips during 2022, which may cause a delay in our ability to fulfill our customers’ orders. Additionally, we face additional supply chain risks as a result of our reliance on single or limited suppliers and vendors for certain components, equipment and services.
Public company expenses.   As a public company, we will be implementing additional procedures and processes for the purpose of addressing the standards and requirements applicable to public companies. In particular, we expect our accounting, legal and personnel-related expenses to increase as we establish more comprehensive compliance and governance functions and hire additional personnel to support such functions, maintain and review internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and prepare and distribute periodic reports in accordance with SEC rules. Our financial statements following this offering will reflect the impact of these expenses. We also expect the costs of our insurance, including directors’ and officers’ insurance and insurance coverage for AV activity, to increase as a result of higher premiums.
In addition, in connection with this offering, we have established an equity incentive plan for purposes of granting share-based compensation awards to certain members of our senior management, to our non-executive directors and to employees, to incentivize their performance and align their interests with ours. Historically, grants of share-based compensation to our employees were made pursuant to Intel’s employee equity incentive plans, and such historical grants will continue based on their original vesting schedules. Equity compensation has been, and will continue to be, an important part of our future compensation strategy and a significant component of our future expenses, which we expect to increase over time.
Components of Results of Operations
Revenue
We currently derive substantially all of our revenue from our commercially deployed ADAS solutions. We generate the vast majority of our revenue from the sale of our EyeQ® SoCs to OEMs through sales to Tier 1 automotive suppliers that implement our product into vehicles, in which case our direct customer is the Tier 1 automotive supplier that is responsible for paying us for our products. Because of the complex nature of our products and the need to customize and validate a product and to integrate it into the OEM’s overall ADAS system, we also have strong direct relationships with the OEMs.
EyeQ® SoC sales represented approximately 94%, 93%, and 91% of our revenue for each of the years 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Sales of our aftermarket products represented the majority of the remainder of our revenue for 2021, 2020 and 2019. Revenue from the sale of our EyeQ® products and from the sale of our aftermarket products is recognized at the time of product shipment from our facilities, as determined by the agreed-upon shipping terms.
For the three months ended April 2, 2022 and March 27, 2021, EyeQ® SoC sales represented approximately 92% and 95% of our revenue, respectively.
Our sales to any single Tier 1 automotive supplier typically cover more than one OEM and more than one production program from any OEM.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue consists primarily of expenses associated with the manufacturing cost of our EyeQ® SoCs, and amortization of acquired intangible assets, identified as developed technology. Additional costs are royalty fees for the intellectual property that is included in the EyeQ® SoC, personnel-related expenses, including share-based compensation for employees on our operations teams, logistics costs and allocated overhead costs. As we develop and sell full systems that include hardware beyond EyeQ® SoCs, we expect that our gross margin will decrease because of the greater hardware content included in our solutions. However, as a result of a higher expected selling price for such systems, we expect our gross profit per unit will increase on a dollar basis.
Research and Development Expenses, net
Research and development expenses primarily consist of expenses related to personnel, facilities, equipment and supplies for research and development activities including share-based compensation, material, parts and other prototype development, cloud computing services, consulting, and other professional services, including data labeling, quality assurance within the development programs, and allocated overhead costs.
We occasionally enter into best-efforts nonrefundable non-recurring engineering arrangements pursuant to which we are reimbursed for a portion of the research and development expenses attributable to specific development programs. We do not receive any additional compensation or royalties upon completion of such projects and the potential customer does not commit to purchase the resulting product in the future. The participation reimbursement that we receive does not depend on whether there are future benefits from the project. All intellectual property generated from these arrangements are exclusively owned by us.
We intend to continue our significant investment in research and development activities to attain our strategic objectives. Accordingly, we expect research and development expenses to increase in absolute dollars, but to gradually decrease as a percentage of total revenue, over time. We expect that in the near term our research and development expenses will increase compared to 2021, mainly due to additional research and development headcount and higher direct expenses that we expect to incur in connection with the development of our new EyeQ® SoC generations, Mobileye SuperVision enhancements, and the productization of our AV solutions and active sensor suite.
Sales and Marketing Expenses
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of expenses associated with the amortization of acquired intangible assets, comprised of customer relationships and branding costs, personnel-related expenses, including share-based compensation, of our sales force, as well as advertising and marketing expenses and allocated overhead costs.
We expect to increase our sales and marketing expenses as we continue our efforts to increase market awareness of the benefits of our solutions, but we expect sales and marketing expenses to decrease as a percentage of total revenue as our business grows.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist of personnel-related expenses, including share-based compensation, of our executive, finance, and legal departments as well as legal and accounting fees, litigation expenses, and fees for professional and contract services.
We expect our general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars but to decrease as a percentage of total revenue as our business grows. The primary reasons for the growth in general and administrative expenses will be the costs related to being a public company, including the need to hire more personnel to support compliance with the applicable provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and other SEC rules and regulations as well as increased premiums for directors’ and officers’ insurance and the increased use of share-based compensation for general and administrative personnel.

Interest Income (Expense) and Other Expense
For purposes of the acquisition of Mobileye in 2017, we entered into a loan agreement with Intel. The loan amount of $15.3 billion bore interest at a rate based on the short term quarterly Applicable Federal Rate published by the Internal Revenue Service. In 2019, the outstanding principal balance of $15.3 billion was converted to equity as a contribution by Intel and the amount of $679 million accumulated interest on the loan was converted to equity in 2020. There was no outstanding principal or interest balance as of April 2, 2022, December 25, 2021, or December 26, 2020.
Our interest income consisted of interest earned on a loan to Intel in the amount of $1.1 billion as of April 2, 2022 and $1.3 billion as of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020.
Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Other expense consists primarily of fluctuations in value due to foreign exchange differences between our monetary assets and liabilities denominated in New Israeli Shekels and to a much lesser extent, the Euro, the Chinese Yuan, the Japanese Yen, and other currencies.
Benefit (provision) for income taxes
Benefit (provision) for income taxes consists primarily of income taxes related to the United States, Israel and other foreign jurisdictions in which we conduct business, and amortization of deferred tax liability with respect to acquired intangible assets. We are eligible for certain tax benefits in Israel under the Investment Law, at a reduced tax rate, subject to specified terms.
During the years presented in our combined financial statements, certain components of our business operations were included in the consolidated U.S. domestic and certain foreign income tax returns filed by Intel, where applicable. We also file certain foreign income tax returns on a separate basis, distinct from Intel. The income tax provision included in our combined financial statements has been calculated using the separate return method as if we had filed our own tax returns. We will present tax loss carry-forward amounts that have not been utilized by Intel only to the extent such tax attributes can be claimed on a separate income tax return as opposed to a consolidated income tax return filing with Intel. Use of the separate return method may result in differences when amounts allocated to our separate income tax provision are compared to Intel’s income tax provision.
In the tax year ended December 25, 2021, Mobileye’s Israeli operations became taxable in the United States as a branch entity. As a result, these operations are taxed both in the United States and Israel. For U.S. tax purposes, there are favorable future tax deductions that we could not benefit from due to a valuation allowance position. If warranted in the future by our actual and projected profitability, valuation allowances may be released, resulting in a benefit at that time. The valuation allowance also resulted in a residual tax expense associated with a deferred tax liability recorded for goodwill in the year ended December 25, 2021.
Realization of deferred tax assets is based on our judgment and various factors including reversal of deferred tax liabilities, the ability to generate future taxable income in jurisdictions where such assets have arisen, and potential tax planning strategies. The valuation allowance for the years presented in our combined financial statements primarily related to U.S. branch deferred tax assets not currently expected to be realized given that we have sustained recent losses based on the separate return method.
Net operating losses reported in the Intel consolidated tax return have not been reflected in our combined financial statements based on a return reality methodology since they will not be available to us in future periods.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended April 2, 2022 and March 27, 2021
Revenue
In the three months ended April 2, 2022, revenue was $394 million, up by $17 million, or 4.5%, from the three months ended March 27, 2021. This increase was mainly attributable to sales of our SuperVisionTM solution, which has a greater average price per vehicle compared to our other ADAS solutions.
Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit
In the three months ended April 2, 2022, our cost of revenue increased by $35 million, or 19.1%, from the three months ended March 27, 2021. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $26 million in amortization of intangible assets transferred from in-process research and development to acquisition-related developed technology.
In the three months ended April 2, 2022, our gross profit decreased by $18 million, or 9.3%, from the three months ended March 27, 2021. This decrease was mainly due to an increase of $26 million in amortization of intangible assets, partially offset by the growth in revenue from our ADAS sales.
Our gross margin decreased from 51.5% during the three months ended March 27, 2021, to 44.7% during the three months ended April 2, 2022. This decrease was primarily due to the higher impact of the cost attributable to amortization of intangible assets, as a percentage of revenue in the three months ended April 2, 2022.
Research and Development Expenses, net
Research and development expenses, net, in the three months ended April 2, 2022, increased by $50 million, or 38.5%, compared to the three months ended March 27, 2021. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $42 million in payroll and related expenses, derived from an average increase in research and development headcount of 398 employees and payroll costs, including share-based compensation.
Sales and Marketing Expenses
Sales and marketing expenses in the three months ended April 2, 2022, increased by $2 million, or 6.1%, compared to the three months ended March 27, 2021, mainly due to an increase in amortization of customer relationship and brand-related intangible assets.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses in the three months ended April 2, 2022, decreased by $2 million, or 22.2%, compared to the three months ended March 27, 2021, mainly due to a decrease in share-based compensation expenses.
Interest Income and Other Income
Interest income and other income in the three months ended April 2, 2022, was flat compared to the three months ended March 27, 2021.
Benefit (Provision) for Income Tax
In the three months ended April 2, 2022, provision for income tax was $16 million, compared to benefit from income tax of $1 million in the three months ended March 27, 2021, mainly due to a withholding tax expense of $14 million related to a dividend distribution between entities within the Mobileye Group, which did not result in a corresponding benefit in the United States, as a result of a valuation allowance position. Other than in connection with the Reorganization as described elsewhere in this prospectus, we do not expect to declare or pay any dividends for the foreseeable future.
The effective tax rate for both periods was significantly influenced by valuation allowances related to deferred tax assets not currently expected to be realized given that we have sustained recent losses based on the separate return method.

Comparison of the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019
Revenue
In 2021, revenue was $1.4 billion, up $419 million, or 43.3%, from 2020. This increase was primarily attributable to a 43.2% increase in the volume of our EyeQ® SoCs sold in 2021 as compared to 2020, driven by increasing adoption of ADAS compared to 2020 and a slight improvement in global vehicle production. In particular, the increase in 2021 reflected the increase in sales from (1) new launches (meaning the beginning of series deliveries to OEMs through Tier 1 automotive suppliers) of production programs particularly with Honda, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Peugeot, and Great Wall Motors, and (2) the full year effect of production programs launched in 2020, particularly with Renault Nissan, HKMC (Hyundai and Kia), Ford, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Peugeot, and Great Wall Motors.
In 2020, revenue was $967 million, up $88 million, or 10.0% from 2019 given higher demand from improved global vehicle production in the second half of 2020, offsetting the decline in production experienced in the first half of the year due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Cost of revenue and gross profit
In 2021, our cost of revenue increased by $140 million, or 23.7%, from 2020. This increase was mainly due to an increase of $86 million in manufacturing costs relating primarily to increased sales of our EyeQ® SoC, and an increase of $51 million in amortization of intangible assets. The increase in amortization of intangible assets was mainly due to an increase of $32 million attributed to intangible assets acquired in the acquisition of Moovit, given the recognition of a full year amortization. In 2020, our cost of revenue increased by $135 million, or 29.6%, from 2019, mainly due to an increase of $107 million in amortization of intangible assets, and increased manufacturing costs relating to increased sales of our EyeQ® SoC. The increase in amortization of intangible assets resulted from $66 million in amortization of intangible assets acquired in the acquisition of Moovit and an increase of $41 million in the amortization of intangible assets transferred from in-process research and development to acquisition-related developed technology.
In 2021, our gross profit increased by $279 million, or 74.2%, from 2020. The increase in 2021 was driven by the growth in volume of products sold, partially offset by the increase in amortization of intangible assets primarily due to the recognition of a full year of amortization of intangible assets acquired in the acquisition of Moovit. In 2020, our gross profit decreased by $47 million, or 11.1%, from 2019. The decrease in 2020 resulted from the increase in amortization of intangible assets primarily due to a partial year of amortization of intangible assets acquired in the acquisition of Moovit, partially offset by the growth in volume of products sold.
Our gross margin decreased from 48.1% during 2019, to 38.9% during 2020 and increased to 47.3% during 2021. The increase in 2021 compared to 2020 and the decrease in 2020 compared to 2019 was due primarily to the higher impact of the cost attributable to amortization of intangible assets, as a percentage of revenue in 2020.
Research and Development Expenses, Net
Research and development expenses, net in 2021 increased by $104 million, or 23.6%, compared to 2020, and in 2020 increased by $56 million, or 14.6%, compared to 2019. The increase in 2021 was mainly due to an increase of $75 million in payroll and related expenses, derived from an average increase in research and development headcount of 274 employees and payroll costs. Additionally, there was an increase of $21 million in cloud computing services, development tools, and investments attributable to new product development. The increase in 2020 was mainly attributable to employee-related costs derived from an average increase in headcount of 356 employees, including the additional headcount resulting from the acquisition of Moovit.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Sales and Marketing Expenses
Sales and marketing expenses in 2021 increased by $18 million, or 15.5%, compared to 2020, and in 2020 increased by $16 million, or 16.0%, compared to 2019. The increase in 2021 was mainly due to an increase of $8 million in amortization of customer relationship and brand-related intangible assets and an increase of $6 million in employee-related costs mainly as a result of the full year impact of Moovit. The increase in 2020 was mainly due to the amortization of intangible assets resulting from the partial year impact of the acquisition of Moovit.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses in 2021 increased by $1 million, or 3.0%, compared to 2020, and in 2020 increased by $8 million, or 32.0%, compared to 2019. The increase in 2020 was mainly due to an average increase in headcount of 29 employees and additional employee-related costs attributable to the acquisition of Moovit. The increase in 2021 was insignificant.
Interest Income (Expenses) and Other Expenses
In 2019, interest expense of $257 million was recorded in connection with the loan from Intel, which was converted to equity during 2019.
Interest income attributable to the loan with Intel was $3 million in 2021, compared to $6 million in 2020, and $22 million in 2019. The decrease resulted from a reduction in the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”).
Other expenses decreased by $2 million in 2021, compared to 2020, and increased by $1 million in 2020 compared to 2019, in each case mainly due to the effect of foreign exchange fluctuations.
Benefit (provision) for income tax
In 2021, provision for income tax was $18 million compared to benefit from income tax of $16 million in 2020, mainly due to the effect of deferred income taxes associated with the amortization of goodwill for tax purposes, as a result of our inclusion in the consolidated, combined, or unitary U.S. federal and state income tax returns with Intel starting in 2021. In 2020, benefit for income taxes was $16 million compared to provision for income of $3 million in 2019 mainly due to the amortization of deferred tax liability with respect to intangible assets attributable to the acquisition of Moovit.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We believe we have sufficient sources of funding to meet our business requirements and plans for the next 12 months and in the longer term. Cash generated by operations is our primary source of liquidity for funding our strategic business requirements.
Our primary uses of funds have been for funding increases in headcount in our research and development organization and for capital expenditures. Our capital expenditures have related mainly to the construction of our campus, data storage and other computer related equipment and were $27 million, $143 million, $91 million, and $44 million for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and fiscal years 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. In connection with the Reorganization, on May 12, 2022, we also declared and paid the Dividend in an aggregate amount of $336 million to Intel, net of $14 million of cash paid to tax authorities to settle related tax obligations.
To fund our cash requirements in the ordinary course of business, we anticipate that we will continue to primarily rely on operating cash flows, supplemented by our total cash and cash equivalents, together with the remaining $      (or $      if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock in full) of the net proceeds that we receive from this offering after repaying approximately $        of indebtedness under the Dividend Note. We expect our total capital expenditures for 2022 to be slightly above our total capital expenditures in 2021, mainly given the expansion to additional facilities required to accommodate the transition of certain employees from Intel to Mobileye. The construction of our campus is planned to be completed in 2022, with a remaining cost we estimate to be

between $100 million and $110 million. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our growth rate and the timing and extent of operating expenses.
We have lease obligations and other contractual obligations and commitments as part of our ordinary course of business. See “Note 5: Leases” to our combined financial statements for information about our lease obligations. We did not have during the periods presented, and we do not currently have, any off-balance sheet arrangements involving commitments or obligations, including contingent obligations, arising from arrangements with unconsolidated entities or persons that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, cash requirements or capital resources.

Operating activities
For the three months ended April 2, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 27, 2021, the $91 million decrease in cash provided by operating activities was mainly due to the timing of working capital requirements and related payments.
For 2021 compared to 2020, the $328 million increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by a decrease of $121 million in net loss, an increase in net cash inflow from working capital and an increase in non-cash adjustments, mainly attributable to the amortization of intangible assets.
For 2020 compared to 2019, the $29 million decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to a decrease in non-cash adjustments in 2020 (primarily due to the adjustment in 2019 relating to interest expenses with respect to a loan with Intel), which more than offset the $132 million decrease in net loss in 2020.
Investing activities
Net cash provided by investing activities in the three months ended April 2, 2022 was $173 million, consisting primarily of the repayment of a loan by Intel.
Net cash used in investing activities in the three months ended March 27, 2021 was $151 million consisting of a $100 million loan to Intel and capital expenditures.
Net cash used in investing activities in 2021 was $157 million, primarily relating to capital expenditures in connection with the construction of our campus.
Net cash used in investing activities in 2020 was $965 million consisting primarily of a net investment of $745 million with respect to our acquisition of Moovit, $135 million loan to Intel and capital expenditures mainly relating to the construction of our campus.
Net cash used in investing activities in 2019 was $225 million, consisting primarily of a $185 million loan to Intel and capital expenditures.

Financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities in the three months ended April 2, 2022 was $91 million, consisting primarily of $186 million of share-based compensation recharge payments made to Intel, partially offset by $102 million in net contributions from Intel.
Net cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended March 27, 2021 was $38 million, primarily related to net contributions from Intel.
Net cash provided by financing activities in 2021 was $91 million, as a result of a net contribution from Intel.
Net cash provided by financing activities in 2020 was $732 million, consisting primarily of $825 million for the acquisition of Moovit, partially offset by share-based compensation recharge payments made to Intel.
Net cash used in financing activities in 2019 was $59 million, primarily related to share-based compensation recharge payments made to Intel.
Liability in respect of employee rights upon retirement
Israeli labor laws and agreements require severance payments upon dismissal of an employee or upon termination of employment in other circumstances. The severance pay liability with respect to Israeli employees is calculated pursuant to Israeli Severance Pay Law based on the most recent salary of the employees multiplied by the number of years of employment as of the balance sheet date.
Our liability for all of our Israeli employees is covered by monthly deposits with severance pay funds. The value of the deposited funds is based on the cash surrender value of these policies and includes profits (or loss) accumulated through the balance sheet date. The deposited funds may be withdrawn only upon the fulfillment of the obligations pursuant to Israeli Severance Pay Law or labor agreements.
Part of our liability for severance pay is covered by the provisions of Section 14 of the Israeli Severance Pay Law (“Section 14”). Under Section 14 employees are entitled to monthly deposits, at a rate of 8.33% of their monthly salary, contributed by us on their behalf to their insurance funds. Payments in accordance with Section 14 release us from any future severance payments in respect of those employees. As a result, we do not recognize any liability for severance pay due to these employees and the deposits under Section 14 are not recorded as assets on the combined balance sheets.
Severance pay liability increased from $59 million as of December 26, 2020, to $68 million as of December 25, 2021, reflecting mainly an increase in salary and related costs. Severance pay liability remained $68 million as of April 2, 2022.
Intel has a defined benefit plan for an adaptation grant for certain groups of Intel’s employees. The adaptation grant includes a salary for three months and may be paid to those employees upon retirement. The benefits under the adaptation grant are calculated based on years of service and pensionable earnings. The vested benefit obligation for a defined-benefit plan is the actuarial present value of the vested benefits to which the employee is currently entitled based on the employee’s expected date of separation or retirement.
Projected benefit obligations increased from $18 million as of December 26, 2020, to $23 million as of December 25, 2021, reflecting the increased number of employees together with an increase in the period of service. Projected benefit obligations remained $23 million as of April 2, 2022.
Indebtedness
We have several bank guarantees aggregating approximately $9 million (denominated in New Israeli Shekels) mainly in connection with lease agreements and import of vehicles.
In addition, in connection with the Reorganization, on April 21, 2022, we distributed to Intel the Dividend Note, in the aggregate principal amount of $3.5 billion. The Dividend Note is scheduled to mature on April 21, 2025 and will accrue interest at a rate equal to 1.26% per annum.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Our management uses Adjusted Gross Profit and Margin, Adjusted Operating Income and Margin and Adjusted Net Income, collectively, as key measures in operating our business. We use such non-GAAP financial measures to make strategic decisions, establish business plans and forecasts, identify trends affecting our business, and evaluate performance. For example, we use these non-GAAP financial measures to assess our pricing and sourcing strategy, in the preparation of our annual operating budget, and as a measure of our operating performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because they allow for greater transparency into what measures our management (and Intel’s management) uses in operating our business and measuring our performance, and enable comparison of financial trends and results between periods where items may vary independent of business performance. The non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. A reconciliation is provided below for each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, as well as our combined financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus.
Our non-GAAP financial measures reflect adjustments for amortization charges for our acquisition-related intangible assets and share-based compensation expense, as well as the related income tax effects where applicable. We exclude amortization charges for our acquisition-related intangible assets for purposes of calculating certain non-GAAP measures, although revenue is generated, in part, by these intangible assets, to eliminate the impact of these non-cash charges that are inconsistent in size and are significantly impacted by the timing and valuation of our acquisitions. These amortization charges relate to intangible assets consisting of developed technology, customer relationships, and brands as a result of Intel’s acquisition of Mobileye in 2017 and the acquisition of Moovit in 2020. We believe excluding items that neither relate to the ordinary course of business nor reflect our underlying business performance, such as the amortization of intangible assets, enables our management and investors to compare our underlying business performance from period to period. Accordingly, we believe these adjustments facilitate a useful evaluation of our current operating performance and comparison to our past operating performance and provide investors with additional means to evaluate cost and expense trends. In addition, we also believe these adjustments enhance comparability of our financial performance against those of other technology companies. We believe that the elimination of share-based compensation expense is appropriate because it eliminates the impact of non-cash expenses for equity-based compensation costs that are based upon valuation methodologies and assumptions that vary over time, and the amount of the expense can vary significantly between companies due to factors that are unrelated to their core operating performance and that can be outside of their control. Although we exclude share-based compensation expense from our non-GAAP measures, equity compensation has been, and will continue to be, an important part of our future compensation strategy and a significant component of our future expenses, and may increase in future periods.
Adjusted Gross Profit and Margin
We define Adjusted Gross Profit as gross profit presented in accordance with GAAP, excluding amortization of acquisition related intangibles and share-based compensation expense. Adjusted Gross Margin is calculated as Adjusted Gross Profit divided by total revenue.
Set forth below is the reconciliation of gross profit to Adjusted Gross Profit and the calculations of gross margin and Adjusted Gross Margin:

Our Gross Margin (gross profit as a percentage of revenue) and Adjusted Gross Margin (adjusted gross profit as a percentage of revenue) reflect the high value-added nature of our solutions and have remained consistent in recent periods. As we develop and sell full systems that include hardware beyond EyeQ® SoCs, we expect that our Gross Margin and Adjusted Gross Margin will decrease because of the greater hardware content included in our solutions. However, as a result of a higher expected selling price for such systems, we expect our gross profit per unit will increase on a dollar basis.
Our Adjusted Gross Margin decreased from 78% for the three months ended March 27, 2021 to 76% for the three months ended April 2, 2022, primarily due to increased sales of ADAS solutions with greater hardware content.
Adjusted Operating Income and Margin
We define Adjusted Operating Income as operating loss presented in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude amortization of acquisition related intangibles and share-based compensation expense. Operating margin is calculated as operating loss divided by total revenue, and Adjusted Operating Margin is calculated as Adjusted Operating Income divided by total revenue.
Set forth below is the reconciliation of operating income (loss) to Adjusted Operating Income and the calculations of Operating Margin and Adjusted Operating Margin:

We incurred an operating loss in each of 2021, 2020 and 2019. The decrease in our operating margin from 2019 to 2020 reflected the impact of increased headcount, including as a result of the acquisition of Moovit, and an increase in amortization of acquired intangibles.

in each of these years included the effect of amortization of acquired intangible assets, as well as share-based compensation expense, each of which increased in each of 2020 and 2021 as compared to the preceding year.
Our Adjusted Operating Income and Margin decreased in the three months ended April 2, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 27, 2021, primarily due to the impact of increased research and development headcount. Our Adjusted Operating Income and Margin increased in fiscal 2021 primarily due to growth in our overall business driven by an increase in adoption of ADAS compared to 2020 and a slight improvement in global vehicle production. We expect that our Adjusted Operating Margin in future near-term years will decrease compared to 2021, mainly due to additional research and development headcount and higher direct expenses that we expect to incur in connection with the development of new EyeQ® SoC generations, Mobileye SuperVision™ enhancements, and the productization of our AV solutions and active sensor suite.
Adjusted Net Income
We define Adjusted Net Income as net loss presented in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude amortization of acquisition related intangibles and share-based compensation expense, as well as the related income tax effects. Income tax effects have been calculated using the applicable statutory tax rate for each adjustment taking into consideration the associated valuation allowance impacts. The adjustment for income tax effects consists primarily of the deferred tax impact of the amortization of acquired intangible assets. The share based compensation adjustment did not have a material tax impact.
Set forth below is the reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted Net Income:

We incurred a net loss in the three months ended April 2, 2022, compared to net income in the three months ended March 27, 2021, mainly as a result of an increase in amortization of acquired intangible assets and share-based compensation expense, as well as an increase in research and development expenses.
Our net income (loss) in each of the three months ended April 2, 2022 and March 27, 2021 and our net loss in each of 2021, 2020 and 2019 included the effect of amortization of acquired intangible assets, as well as share-based compensation expense, each of which increased in the three months ended April 2, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 27, 2021, and increased in each of 2020 and 2021 as compared to the preceding year. The decrease in our net loss in 2021 as compared to 2020 reflects growth in our overall business, driven by an increase in adoption of ADAS compared to 2020 and a slight improvement in global vehicle production. The decrease in our net loss in 2020 as compared to 2019 was attributable in part to the impact of net interest expense of $235 million in 2019, primarily related to interest expense in connection with a loan from Intel, which was converted to equity.
Our Adjusted Net Income decreased in the three months ended April 2, 2022, compared to the three months ended March 27, 2021, primarily due to the impact of increased research and development headcount, as well as an increase in provision of income taxes. Our Adjusted Net Income increased in fiscal 2021 primarily due to growth in our overall business, driven by an increase in adoption of ADAS compared

to 2020 and a slight improvement in global vehicle production. We expect that our Adjusted Net Income margin (which is the Adjusted Net Income divided by total revenue) in future near-term years will decrease compared to 2021, mainly due to additional research and development headcount and higher direct expenses that we expect to incur in connection with the development of new EyeQ® SoC generations, Mobileye SuperVision™ enhancements, and the productization of our AV solutions and active sensor suite.

Quarterly Trends
In 2020, the entire automotive industry was severely impacted by COVID-19, resulting in global vehicle production declining by 16% compared to 2019. This led to fluctuations in our quarterly results. We experienced a temporary reduction in revenue and operating margin during the second and third quarters of 2020, followed by a sharp recovery that is reflected in the results of the fourth quarter of 2020 and the first quarter of 2021.
The increase in operating expenses starting in the fourth quarter of 2021 is mainly due to increased R&D investments in connection with the launch of Mobileye SuperVision™ and AV productization.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are exposed to market risk in the ordinary course of our business. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of foreign currency exchange rates.
The U.S. dollar is our functional currency. Substantially all our revenue was denominated in U.S. dollars for all periods presented, however certain expenses comprising our cost of revenue and operating expenses were denominated in New Israeli Shekels, mainly payroll. As a result, our combined financial statements are subject to fluctuations due to changes in exchange rates as our operating expenses, denominated in New Israeli Shekels, are remeasured from New Israeli Shekels into U.S. dollars. We also have expenses in other currencies, in particular the Euro, the Chinese Yuan, and the Japanese Yen, although to a much lesser extent.
We have attempted to minimize foreign currency risk, primarily by entering into a hedging services agreement with Intel during 2021. Intel centrally hedges its forecast cash flow exposure to the U.S. dollar / New Israeli Shekel exchange rates, and according to the agreement, we have been entitled to a certain allocation of the gains and losses arising from the execution of the hedging contracts. Since our hedging arrangement with Intel is not expected to continue in the long-term, we plan to reassess what, if any, hedging arrangements we will have in subsequent fiscal years.
If the New Israeli Shekel had strengthened by 10% against the U.S. dollar, it would have decreased our cash flows by approximately $37 million and $28 million during 2020 and 2019, respectively. The effect of a 10% change in the U.S. dollar / New Israeli Shekel exchange rate would not have had a material impact on our cash flows in 2021 or the three months ended April 2, 2022, due to our hedging services agreement with Intel.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The application of our accounting policies may require us to make assumptions and estimates about future events and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expense, and the accompanying disclosures. We base our assumptions, estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time the estimate was made.
We consider an accounting policy to be a critical estimate if: (1) we must make assumptions that were uncertain when the judgment was made, and (2) changes in the relevant estimate or assumptions, or selection of a different estimate methodology, could have a significant impact on our financial position or the results that we report in our combined financial statements.
We believe that our estimates, assumptions, and judgments are reasonable in that they were based on information available when the estimates, assumptions and judgments were made. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ materially from those implied by our assumptions and estimates.
On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to intangible assets, goodwill and deferred taxes. We base our estimates, assumptions and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may materially differ from the results implied by these estimates and judgments under different assumptions or conditions.
Intangible Assets
Our combined financial statements include acquisition-related intangible assets, consisting primarily of developed technology and customer relationships and brands. The identification and recognition of those intangible assets involve significant judgments relating to, among other things, the projected cash flows attributable to these intangible assets and the estimated useful lives of these intangible assets. We amortize acquisition-related intangible assets that are subject to amortization over their estimated useful lives. The
 
87

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
useful lives are determined by management at the time of acquisition, based on historical experience and the economic life of the underlying technology, and are regularly reviewed for appropriateness. Acquisition-related in-process research and development assets represent the fair value of incomplete research and development projects that had not reached technological feasibility as of the date of acquisition; initially, these are classified as in-process research and development and are not subject to amortization. Once these projects are completed, the asset balances are transferred from in-process research and development to acquisition-related developed technology and are subject to amortization from that point forward based on their estimated useful lives at that time.
The asset balances relating to projects that are abandoned after acquisition are impaired and expensed to research and development. We perform a quarterly review of significant finite-lived identified intangible assets to make a judgment on whether facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable and an impairment may be required.
These reviews can be affected by various factors, including external factors such as industry and economic trends, and internal factors such as changes in our business strategy and our forecasts for specific product lines.
Goodwill
We perform an annual impairment assessment of goodwill at the reporting unit level in the fourth quarter of each year, or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist. The analysis may include both qualitative and quantitative factors to assess the likelihood of impairment. Additionally, we are permitted to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether a quantitative goodwill impairment test is necessary. Further testing is only required if we determine, based on the qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount.
Qualitative factors include industry and market considerations, overall financial performance, and other relevant events and factors affecting the reporting unit. Additionally, as part of this assessment, we may perform a quantitative analysis to support the qualitative factors above by applying sensitivities to assumptions and inputs used in measuring a reporting unit’s fair value.
Our quantitative impairment test considers both the income approach and the market approach to estimate a reporting unit’s fair value. Significant estimates include growth rates, estimated costs, and discount rates based on a reporting unit’s weighted average cost of capital.
For 2021, we performed a quantitative impairment test at the reporting unit level, which had $111 million of allocated goodwill as of December 25, 2021. As of December 25, 2021, the reporting unit was not at risk of failing the quantitative impairment test and the fair value of the reporting unit substantially exceeded its carrying amount. As of April 2, 2022, no indicators of impairment were identified.
Deferred Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the combined financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. We reduce the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. Use of the term “more likely than not” indicates the likelihood of occurrence is greater than 50%.
Accordingly, the need to establish valuation allowances for deferred tax assets is continually assessed based on a more-likely-than-not realization threshold. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of profitability and taxable income, the duration of statutory carryforward periods, our experience with the utilization of operating loss and tax credit carryforwards before expiration and tax planning strategies. In making such judgments, significant weight is given to evidence that can be objectively verified.

BUSINESS
Overview
Mobileye is a leader in the development and deployment of ADAS and autonomous driving technologies and solutions. We pioneered ADAS technology more than 20 years ago and have continuously expanded the scope of our ADAS offerings, while leading the evolution to autonomous driving solutions.
Our portfolio of solutions is built upon a comprehensive suite of purpose-built software and hardware technologies designed to provide the capabilities needed to make the future of ADAS and autonomous driving a reality. These technologies can be harnessed to deliver mission-critical capabilities at the edge and in the cloud, advancing the safety of road users, and revolutionizing the driving experience and the movement of people and goods globally.
While today ADAS is central to the advancement of automotive safety, we believe that the future of mobility is autonomous. However, mass adoption of autonomous vehicles is still nascent. Full autonomy — where a human is not actively engaged in driving the vehicle for extended periods of time — requires the autonomous driving solution to be capable of navigating any environment in any condition at any time. Additionally, developing a technology platform whose decision-making process and resulting actions are verifiable is critical to enabling autonomous driving solutions at scale. The ability to drive autonomously not only requires a substantial amount of data, but also a robust technology platform that can withstand the validation and audit process of global regulatory bodies. Finally, the autonomous driving solution needs to be produced at a cost that makes it affordable. We are building our technology platform to address these fundamental and significant challenges in order to enable the full spectrum of solutions, from ADAS to autonomous driving.
We believe that our industry-leading technology platform, built upon over 20 years of research, development, data collection and validation, and purpose-built software and hardware design, gives us a differentiated ability to not only deliver excellent safety ratings and maintain a leadership position with our ADAS solutions, but also to make the mass deployment of autonomous driving solutions a reality. We also believe that the breadth of our solutions, combined with our global customer base, represents a significant market opportunity for us. Our platform is modular by design, and it is highly customizable, which allows our customers to benefit from our cutting-edge, verified, and validated core ADAS capabilities while enabling our customers to augment and differentiate their offerings. We estimate the current TAM to be approximately $16 billion, composed entirely of selected ADAS market opportunities. We expect the near-term TAM to be approximately $40 billion, and the long-term TAM to be approximately $480 billion, as the value of ADAS functionality increases and as AV deployment, both in consumer-owned vehicles and fleet-owned vehicle networks, accelerates. We define the near-term TAM as the market size in or about 2026 and the long-term TAM as the market size in or about 2030. The TAM combines market opportunities in ADAS and AV, including AMaaS.
We have experienced significant growth since our founding. For 2021, 2020, and 2019, our revenue was $1.4 billion, $967 million, and $879 million, respectively, representing year-over-year growth of 43% in 2021. For the three months ended April 2, 2022 and March 27, 2021, our revenue was $394 million and $377 million, respectively, representing period-over-period growth of 4.5%. We currently derive substantially all of our revenue from our commercially deployed ADAS solutions. We recorded net losses of $75 million, $196 million, and $328 million in 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively. We recorded net loss of $60 million and net income of $25 million in the three months ended April 2, 2022 and March 27, 2021, respectively. Our Adjusted Net Income for 2021, 2020 and 2019 was $474 million, $289 million, and $51 million, respectively. Our Adjusted Net Income for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and March 27, 2021 was $120 million and $158 million, respectively. As of April 2, 2022, our solutions had been installed in approximately 800 vehicle models (including local country, year, and other vehicle model variations), and our SoCs had been deployed in over 100 million vehicles. We are actively working with more than 50 OEMs worldwide on the implementation of our ADAS solutions, and we announced over 40 new design wins in 2021 alone. We estimate, based on our existing design wins through April 2, 2022, that our ADAS solutions will be deployed in more than an additional 250 million vehicles by 2030, including approximately 50 million vehicles based on our 2021 design wins. These estimates are based on projections of future production volumes that were provided by the OEMs at the time of sourcing our design wins with them for the models related to

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
those design wins. These estimates may deviate from actual production volume (which may be higher or lower than the estimates) and do not include design wins after April 2, 2022.
We were founded in Israel in 1999. Our co-founder, Professor Amnon Shashua, is our President and Chief Executive Officer. Prior to being acquired by Intel for $15.3 billion in 2017, we completed an initial public offering in 2014 and traded under the symbol MBLY on the New York Stock Exchange.
Our Technology Platform is Built to Enable the Full-Stack of Autonomous Solutions
Our technology platform, which includes our software and hardware intellectual property, leverages our decades of experience as a technology leader for sensing and perception solutions for the automotive industry and our focused efforts to build highly scalable and cost-efficient autonomous solutions. Our technologies are foundational to the development and deployment of our ADAS capabilities and consumer AV. Our platform is built on five fundamental pillars:

highly advanced, road-tested, sensing and perception technologies built upon years of technology leadership in computer vision and powered by our mission critical software and purpose-built EyeQ® family of SoCs;

a high-precision mapping system, our Road Experience Management (“REM”), that generates AV maps from crowd-sourced data that is uploaded and analyzed in the cloud from REM-equipped production ADAS solutions that are deployed on vehicles on the road;

a redundant sensor fusion architecture, which we call True Redundancy, designed to employ two independent perception subsystems — one based solely on cameras, and the other solely on a radar-LiDAR subsystem, to enable our goal of building a fully autonomous driving-system that can be validated as safer than human-driven vehicles and deployed in a cost-efficient manner;

the design of next generation imaging-radars, a solution targeted to reduce the need for multiple LiDAR sensors, combined with a single front-facing LiDAR sensor in the redundant sensor configuration of the future, to enable our goal of building a cost-effective fully autonomous driving-system; and

our RSS framework, which has continuously been optimized since it was first published in 2017, is used by international bodies that are currently developing standards with respect to the safety of AV, and forms the backbone of our human-like, computationally efficient, driving policy and decision-making engine.
[MISSING IMAGE: tm227410d3-tbl_techno4c.jpg]
These five pillars form the core of our platform, which is highly customizable, and we intend to deploy them with increasing functionality to continue to enhance our market-leading ADAS solutions and lead the evolution to autonomous driving solutions.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Efficiency and Scale are the Foundation of our Rich Portfolio of Solutions
We are focused on offering full-stack solutions across the ADAS and autonomous driving markets. These include or are expected to include:

a range of ADAS solutions supporting not only “base” features to meet global regulatory requirements and safety ratings, but also higher-function cloud-enhanced feature sets including crowd-sourced maps and “eyes-on/hands-free” point-to-point assisted driving solutions;

“eyes-off/hands-free” autonomous driving solutions with a human driver still in the driver’s seat that may require driver intervention in certain situations for consumer AV with the ability to drive safely without geofenced limitations; and

a set of solutions for AMaaS, including a self-driving system, the self-driving vehicles delivered in partnership with OEMs, and a customer-facing application for the movement of people and goods.
We believe we can reach series production for each of these technologies in the future, as each is accomplished by adding a block of our discrete intellectual property that is either in production today or in advanced development stages. We believe that our range of value-creating solutions that are scalable, verifiable, and cost-effective represent a significant competitive advantage.
Efficiency
Our purpose-built EyeQ® family of SoCs have a low power consumption profile and tight software/hardware coupling to achieve “lean compute” for efficiency. The principle of efficiency permeates the overall solution design, including our True RedundancyTM approach, with separate subsystems to increase robustness and reduce the compute resources required to validate the solution, and RSS, which separates the perception system’s validation from the driving policy system. Both of these are critical contributors to achieving efficient solutions.
Scale
We achieve scale by designing our solutions to operate at a cost and performance level that allows our solutions to become ubiquitous. We have designed our solutions to operate with four scale-driven elements:

our REM crowd-sourced AV maps allow the map-building and map-updating process to be automated. Our AV maps are designed to enable vehicles equipped with our new category of cloud-enhanced ADAS that we call “Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist” and autonomous driving solutions to drive without the limitations of pre-mapped geofenced zones. These AV maps will support our efforts to deploy in new cities and geographies quickly;

our cost-optimized EyeQ® SoC family is highly scalable and built to be at the core of our full spectrum of current and future ADAS and AV solutions, from base ADAS to autonomous driving. Our current EyeQ®4Mid, 4High, 5Mid, 5High, and our recently announced 6Lite, and 6High, cover the entire spectrum of our ADAS solutions portfolio, and our recently announced EyeQ Ultra, a monolithic “AV-on-Chip”, covers our autonomous driving solutions portfolio;

our software-defined imaging radars and associated perception technology are designed to function as a second redundant perception layer. By reducing the LiDAR content per vehicle, we believe we will be able to reduce costs significantly, and facilitate consumer AV and AMaaS solutions at scale; and

our driving policy (RSS-based) is designed for global deployment, as it does not rely on local or regional driving cultural norms. In 2021, we announced the expected initial commercial deployment of our AMaaS offering in Munich and Tel Aviv together with Moovit in addition to our current testing sites in China, Israel, Detroit, Miami, Munich, Paris, Stuttgart and Tokyo.
We Have a History of Innovation and Market Leadership
As of April 2, 2022, our solutions had been installed in approximately 800 vehicle models (including local country, year, and other vehicle model variations), and our SoCs had been deployed in over 100 million vehicles. We are actively working with more than 50 OEMs worldwide on the implementation of our

ADAS solutions, and we announced over 40 new design wins in 2021 alone. We estimate, based on our existing design wins through April 2, 2022, that our ADAS solutions will be deployed in more than an additional 250 million vehicles by 2030, including approximately 50 million vehicles based on our 2021 design wins. We currently ship a variety of ADAS solutions to 13 of the 15 largest automakers in the world in addition to many smaller OEMs, and we are recognized for our top-rated safety solutions globally. For example, 66% of Euro NCAP 5-star rated vehicle models for 2018-2021 are equipped with our solutions, with the Euro NCAP widely recognized as the most stringent in regulating automotive safety, and many other regional NCAPs following its leadership.
Since 2007, when we first launched the EyeQ®1, we have introduced numerous industry-first ADAS products.
[MISSING IMAGE: tm227410d6-fc_mobile4c.jpg]
Our Family of Purpose-Built EyeQ® SoCs
Our family of purpose-built EyeQ® SoCs is fundamental to our leadership position in ADAS. Our EyeQ® SoCs incorporate a set of proprietary compute-acceleration models, to enhance the accuracy, quality, and functional safety of our perception solutions, while minimizing the power consumption to address the requirements of the automotive market. The EyeQ® family design enables a scalable ECU architecture, thereby supporting a variety of ADAS solution architectures. These solutions range from base, windshield mounted ECUs to multi-SoC central compute ECUs as well as our recently announced EyeQ Ultra, which is expected to be capable of hosting the full workload of autonomous driving under stringent cost and power efficiency metrics. Our EyeQ®5 SoCs and subsequent generations feature EyeQ Kit — an end-to-end SDK intended to enable the co-hosting of our partners’ and customers’ workloads alongside our cutting-edge AI technologies. Our SDK provides access to all EyeQ accelerators for programming and is enabled by a broad ecosystem of standard and proprietary software. EyeQ Kit is the evolution of our core competencies and differentiated central compute knowhow. EyeQ Kit brings together a team of compilers, simulators, profilers, and debuggers, who have been working together for many years, to develop a single software platform optimized for common workloads and industry standards. EyeQ Kit is expected to be used by several OEMs and Tier 1s, and hosts third-party content such as driver monitoring systems, parking functions, and visualization features. Our end-to-end software model encourages our customers to innovate on top of our platform, augmenting and differentiating their offerings, while benefiting from our cutting-edge, verified, and validated core ADAS capabilities. Importantly, we believe EyeQ Kit accelerates time to market for our customers at a lower cost than alternative in-house solutions, while strengthening our partnerships by encouraging our customers to customize their offerings on top of our platform.

Road Experience Management
REM is a cloud-based system that leverages the broad installed-base of REM-equipped vehicles to build Mobileye Roadbook, our crowd-sourced, high-definition maps of roads from around the world. Our REM mapping system harvests Road Segment Data from millions of vehicles in small packets that have been launched by our partner OEMs since 2018 that are equipped with our EyeQ®4Mid and above SoCs, and special processing software that extracts only the relevant information that is necessary to support increasing levels of ADAS and autonomous driving. The Road Segment Data is uploaded to the cloud where our software automatically creates and updates a detailed and accurate model of the road. Our REM mapping system seamlessly creates high-precision AV maps in the cloud at centimeter detail, which are then delivered to the edge to provide vehicles with real-time intelligence, including situational awareness, context, and foresight. Mobileye Roadbook was designed to provide the driving solution with a pre-aggregated representation of relevant static and slowly changing elements of the environment (road geometry, boundaries, and semantics) and temporary events such as construction zones and road debris, at a high refresh rate. As of April 2, 2022, we had collected 4.3 billion miles of road data from, based on our estimates, approximately 1.5 million REM-enabled vehicles worldwide, and were analyzing up to 21 million miles of road data per day, with the size of the REM-enabled fleet increasing daily. For comparison, the total length of paved roads in the United States, European Union, India, and China combined is less than 15 million miles.

By augmenting our base ADAS with REM and Mobileye Roadbook, we have pioneered the new ADAS category of cloud-enhanced ADAS, which we call Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist. Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist includes an in-path driver assist function capable of:

Laterally controlling the vehicle to accurately track the driving path even in cases where lane markings are poorly marked, partly visible, or completely absent (for example, while driving through intersections); and

Longitudinally responding to traffic directives and road conditions, such as adjustment of the speed according to speed limits, road curvature, or upcoming speed bumps/hazards, and yielding/stopping in response to traffic signs, traffic lights and pedestrian crossings.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist also provides foresight of road geometry, and the often-complicated association of semantic indications with the different driving paths (e.g., traffic lights and traffic signs) by relying on data from prior human driving activity in those locations and situations. Our Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist offering was incorporated in Ford’s BlueCruise, beginning in 2021, across multiple makes and models, and Volkswagen announced in early 2022 that our Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist offering is being incorporated in Volkswagen’s Travel Assist 2.5. As we continue to rapidly scale our solutions, the benefits of greater data and intelligence not only accrue to our platform, but also to our OEM customers and consumers through greater safety, as well as increased functionality and accuracy across various road conditions.
Our Roadmap to Enable Mass AV Deployment
We believe autonomous driving requires two further major advancements, each of which we are developing, and includes a regulatory framework for deploying AV at scale and a unique sensor fusion architecture, which enhances the effectiveness of the self-driving system.
RSS: Our Technology Safety Concept for Deploying AV at Scale
RSS is a formal, explicit, machine interpretable model governing the safety of our autonomous driving solutions’ driving policy. RSS articulates a set of plausible-worst-case assumptions regarding the behavior of other road-users, thereby enabling assertive, human-like driving while rigorously respecting the boundary between safe driving decisions and dangerous, risk-inducing ones. By doing so, it provides a deterministic model for safe driving decisions. As such, RSS further gives regulators and industry participants a framework for standardizing autonomous driving decision-making safety. RSS is also the key enabler of our lean compute driving policy design, as we distinctly separate comfort driving strategies and tactics from safety-related inhibitions and adjustments. RSS has inspired a global standardization effort of AV safety including IEEE 2846, an industry working group that we lead. We first published our RSS model in 2017, setting another example of our industry leadership in addressing one of the key issues to enable regulatory and public acceptance of “eyes-off/hands-free” autonomous solutions at scale.
True Redundancy: Our Unique Sensor Fusion Architecture
Our unique architecture design, called True Redundancy, further enhances the robustness and safety of our self-driving system. Rather than fusing all different sensor modalities prior to creating an “environment model” of the world, we are developing two independent perception subsystems. One subsystem is powered solely by cameras and the other is powered by active sensors (radars and LiDARs). The fusion of the two separate “sensing states” is performed at a high-level with a simple decision mechanism for safety maneuvers and more complex “comfort” maneuvers for human-like driving. We have announced a robotaxi with a unified True Redundancy system including radar and LiDAR subsystems, and we expect this vehicle to be on the road in 2022. In 2021, we announced the expected initial commercial deployment of our AMaaS offering in Munich and Tel Aviv together with Moovit in addition to our current testing sites in China, Israel, Detroit, Miami, Munich, Paris, Stuttgart and Tokyo.
A byproduct of our True Redundancy architecture is enabling subsystems of our AV development to “scale down” to ADAS, thus creating a seamless and scalable solution portfolio from ADAS to autonomous driving. For example, our Premium Driver Assist offering, Mobileye SuperVision, recently launched by Geely Group for its Zeekr premium electric vehicle brand, is a productization of the camera-only subsystem of our autonomous driving development offering fully operational point-to-point assisted driving navigation. Since the ADAS market is extremely cost-sensitive and cameras are considered the most cost-efficient and versatile sensors powering the evolution of ADAS, the True Redundancy architecture enables us to considerably enhance the evolution of ADAS from front-facing camera solutions to a full surround multi-camera solution supporting fully operational “eyes-on” functions.
The Mobileye SuperVision configuration of sensors and compute can also be transformed into an effective “360 guardian,” helping the driver avoid accidents, as referenced in our Vision Zero paper published on arXiv.org in 2018. To take substantial steps towards “Vision Zero” or the goal of reducing driving fatalities and serious injuries from roadway accidents to zero, we leverage surround sensing, our RSS framework and REM AV maps. Our AV maps provide areas of potential dangers (such as lane merges,
 
95

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
traffic lights and occluded pedestrians) and adjust the driving accordingly, while RSS provides human-like decisions enabled by surround (360) sensing and the REM AV map. We believe Mobileye SuperVision has the potential to transform ADAS at its core, potentially leading to adoption driven by regulatory requirements and safety ratings of a Mobileye SuperVision-like solution in its own category, similar to how safety-ratings and regulation have driven the adoption of base ADAS beginning in 2014. We believe that our cost-efficient design of active sensing technology will help support consumer AV production at scale in the future.
In addition, the autonomous driving-ADAS interplay rooted in our True Redundancy architecture is bi-directional: advanced technologies, which are migrated down from the self-driving systems to ADAS, dramatically enhance our ADAS market proposition, and in turn, these advanced autonomous driving technologies are being validated in commercial, mass market ADAS deployments, greatly contributing to the process of verifying and validating the various elements of our self-driving systems. Moreover, our scalable architecture provides our OEM partners with operational efficiencies as our stacked solution architecture minimizes the OEMs’ integration and validation burden as our solutions can be seamlessly deployed across multiple vehicle segments.
We are designing a first-of-its-kind “software-defined” imaging radar with a dynamic range and resolution backed by advanced processing algorithms to enable an independent “sensing state.” We have chosen to focus on the evolution of the radar modality, given its cost structure is significantly below LiDAR-only systems. We believe our custom designed, imaging radars address not only the performance, but also the cost limitations of a radar-multiple LiDAR solution for mass AV deployment. Our radar is expected to deliver rich point-cloud models like those customary of LiDAR, with far higher resolution and a significantly more dynamic range than traditional radar. We believe that this will allow us to eliminate the need for multiple high-cost LiDARs around the vehicle and require only a single front-facing LiDAR, thereby significantly lowering the overall cost of the required sensors compared to other solutions that use LiDAR-centric or LiDAR-only systems.
Our True Redundancy architecture with two separate subsystems combines both cameras and software-defined imaging radar around the vehicle, with a single front-facing LiDAR for three-way redundancy, which will be powered by our EyeQ Ultra AV-on-Chip. This unique True Redundancy architecture is designed to bring the cost structure of a full self-driving system to a consumer level by having the imaging radars replace the multiple, expensive LiDARs around the vehicle and require only a single front-facing LiDAR, enabling “eyes-off/hands-free” Level 4 autonomous solutions to be launched at scale. Until completion of development of our software-defined imaging radar, we expect the implementation of our True Redundancy architecture to employ third-party LiDARs and commercially available radars.

Represents commercially deployed solutions (Driver Assist, Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist and Mobileye SuperVision) and solutions that we expect to be commercially deployed in the future (Mobileye Chauffeur, Mobileye Drive and
AMaaS).
In January 2022, we announced a design win of our consumer AV system, Mobileye Chauffeur, with Zeekr, Geely Group’s premium electric vehicle brand. Consumer AV ranges from very limited operational design domain (e.g., low-speed, highway-only “traffic jam pilot” systems) to the much more expansive operational design domain that we are pursuing through our Mobileye Chauffeur solution. Mobileye Chauffeur is expected to be capable of “eyes-off/hands-free” driving with a human driver still in the driver’s seat, in a gradually expanding operational driving domain, and is expected to use surrounding imaging radars and front-facing LiDAR, but may require driver intervention in certain situations. The first generation will be based on six EyeQ®5High SoCs, and future generations will be powered by one EyeQ Ultra, our AV-on-Chip. We believe that this design win is an early sign of broad interest in consumer-level “eyes-off/hands-free” driving.
Building upon Mobileye Chauffeur, which targets the consumer-owned AV market, we are developing Mobileye Drive, our Level 4 self-driving system targeted for fleet-owned AMaaS and goods delivery networks. While these markets are still nascent, we view the potential use of autonomous driving technology by the operators of passenger and goods transportation networks as unlocking significant efficiencies and safety improvements. While these networks will require multiple layers of technology, we believe the majority of the value will accrue to the companies that provide (1) the self-driving system itself, (2) the mobility intelligence platform and services, and (3) demand and user experience.
Self-Driving System Mobileye Drive encompasses our core autonomous driving technologies and will deliver all driving functions without the need for any in-vehicle human intervention. We believe our self-driving system has sustainable competitive advantages as a result of the cost efficiency, scalability, and regulatory validation of our technology platform:

Cost Efficiency — cost-efficient, low-energy, purpose-built central compute processors; imaging radars targeted to reduce the need for multiple LiDAR units and require only a single front-facing LiDAR;

Geographic Scalability — REM-based AV maps that eliminate the need for dedicated high-definition mapping efforts; RSS-based driving policy designed for global deployment by not relying on driving culture or local rules; sensing technologies built on a foundation of a massive data training set from over 40 countries; and

Regulatory Validation — True Redundancy, with independent, separate perception subsystems that increases robustness and ease of validation, RSS used by international bodies that are currently developing standards with respect to the safety of AV.

Mobility Intelligence Platform, Demand and Services — We provide this layer through Moovit, a leading urban mobility app and MaaS solutions provider, which was acquired by Intel in 2020 to support the Mobileye business and which will become wholly owned by us as part of the Reorganization. As of April 2, 2022, Moovit had more than 1.4 billion users globally and service in over 3,500 cities across 112 countries, and was generating approximately six billion anonymous data points daily, tracking mobility demand patterns globally, enabling a key mobility intelligence layer that can be used to intelligently predict ride demand and thus help to optimize fleet utilization
Demand and Rider Experience — Moovit’s global user base also provides a ready consumer base for our business-to-business customers. It also provides the necessary service and user-base layer within our own AMaaS solution.
While the technology to unlock these markets is approaching commercialization, business models on how services will be delivered are still nascent. Our strategy is to remain supportive of a variety of business models and pursue a variety of commercial programs, with a variety of partners, in a wide range of geographies. This strategy has gained traction over the last several years, as we are forming business-to-business collaborations with several public transportation operators and transportation network companies in the U.S. and Europe relating to our Self Driving System. We are also pursuing the business-to-customer channel with full vertically integrated MaaS activities in partnership with SIXT in Europe and in a Mobileye owned-and-operated network in Israel.
We believe we are well positioned to commercialize these opportunities, and that our scale, cost, and regulatory validation advantages will become evident to the broader market and lead to significant additional opportunities to grow these services globally.
[MISSING IMAGE: tm227410d6-fc_value4c.jpg]
We believe that our industry-leading technology platform, built upon multiple years of research, development, data collection and validation, gives us the unique ability to not only deliver excellent safety ratings with our ADAS solutions, but also to make the mass deployment of autonomous driving solutions a reality. We believe that the breadth of our solutions, combined with our global customer base, represents a significant market opportunity for us.
The Autonomous Vehicle Revolution
Autonomous driving is one of the most difficult technological challenges facing the world today. Autonomous driving as a technological concept has been at the forefront of human imagination for
 
98

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
decades. Since the early 2000s, a number of automotive and technology companies have invested heavily to try to make this a reality.
Vehicle autonomy can be viewed as a spectrum, which uses the same technology building blocks to power the full span of driver assist functions, ranging from those available in hundreds of car models today, through full autonomy powering robotaxis and, eventually, personal autonomous vehicles. Basic driver assist features, such as automatic emergency braking or lane keeping assist, together with longitudinal control such as adaptive cruise control, fall into what is known as SAE Levels 1-2. The next level up refers to premium driver assist functions adding additional safety and comfort functionality, allowing the driver to experience hands free driving while the driver must still monitor the driving. Level 3 enables the driver to relinquish control under certain conditions such as highway driving. Vehicles equipped with Level 4 autonomy, which powers robotaxis and autonomous delivery vehicles, for example, operate within a certain operational design domain without driver input at all, but may rely on a teleoperator in rare circumstances. Level 5 autonomy requires no human driver intervention at all in any situation.
We believe that the path to full autonomy at scale will begin with increased proliferation of the middle category — premium driver assist — enabling hands-free highway driving, for example, and then will gradually extend to other types of roadways, such as rural, urban, and arterial roads. This will allow continued technological development and public trust and familiarity to grow and pave the way toward full autonomy. Our ADAS solutions, which have been deployed in more than 100 million vehicles, are important building blocks for these more advanced autonomous systems. We believe the key factors in the growth of autonomous driving will be increased safety, consumer demand, and other economic and social benefits, such as increased mobility for older adults and persons with disabilities, less traffic congestion, and the reduction of land use for parking.
[MISSING IMAGE: tm227410d3-fc_vehicle4c.jpg]
Models for AV Adoption
We believe that the availability of AVs will cause a significant transformation in mobility, including vehicle ownership and utilization. We expect that AV technology will eventually be accessed by consumers through shared-vehicle AMaaS networks, as well as in consumer-owned and operated AVs. It is our view that, to reach the full potential of autonomous driving over the long-term, the technology solutions that enable these separate markets should converge over time, and that is reflected in our strategy.
Autonomous driving has the potential to dramatically increase the proliferation of shared mobility, creating greater utilization of what is currently a significantly underutilized asset, the car. We believe that this model will ultimately manifest itself in the form of networks operated by a variety of different automotive and technology companies, where the consumer will be able to hail on-demand transportation at the click of a button, instead of owning a vehicle.
In addition, we believe consumer-owned and operated AVs will fundamentally change how individuals utilize their vehicles. Today, cars are in operation for an average of only approximately one hour per day,
 
99

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
implying owned vehicle utilization of only 4% per day according to the Department of Transportation. Automation would allow the vehicle to operate more hours per day, and more predictably, reliably, and safely. Providing consumers with access to affordable autonomous vehicles can add a number of entirely new uses for vehicles that have never been possible before. For example, if one wanted to ride in their car to work, instead of leaving the car in the parking lot all day, the car could drive around autonomously and pick up groceries or a package at a store.
As autonomous driving technology advances, a number of new transportation use cases are expected to emerge around the type of vehicle ownership, what is transported, and where and when the vehicle can operate. We believe that the most important factors in operating AMaaS networks will be the technology that powers the vehicles, as well as the scale of the network which will influence the availability of vehicles. As fleet operators increase network scale and availability of vehicles, the value of the platform to the user base will rise. We believe that mobility supply is developing in two main segments — automated public transport operators and automated transportation network companies — with very few companies able to operate within both over the long-term. It is our view that a flexible solution that supports both consumer AVs and AMaaS will be necessary to reach the full potential of autonomous driving over the long-term.
Challenges to Making Autonomous Vehicles Ubiquitous
To make autonomous vehicles at scale a reality, we believe that there are three core challenges that must be addressed:

Regulatory Endorsement — Autonomous driving solutions must be architected, by design, to be verifiably safe, in a manner that fosters broad societal and regulatory endorsement. Regulation is an often-overlooked factor. While laws and regulations are specific to human drivers, there are challenges to balance safety and practicality of an AV in a manner that is acceptable to society. We believe it will be easier to develop laws and regulations governing a fleet of robotaxis than privately owned vehicles. A fleet operator would receive a limited license per use case, per geographic region and will be subject to extensive reporting and back-office remote operations. In contrast, licensing AVs to consumers would require a complete overhaul of the complex laws and regulations that currently govern drivers. Autonomy must wait until regulation and technology reach an equilibrium, which we believe will first be achieved through AMaaS deployments. Self-driving regulation is inherently complicated, and driving policy depends on “what would happen next” reasoning, which is not factual. Two humans might provide two different answers when asked whether an AV should yield to a car at an intersection or take the right of way. As a result, there is no clear definition of “error,” but rather, it is open to interpretation or depends on after-the-fact judgment. All motor vehicle drivers owe a duty of care to other road users, and autonomous vehicles will need to be held to the same standard. Statistically, autonomous vehicles should be safer than human drivers. However, for driving policy being “safer” does not always mean being better. As a society, we balance safety and practicality by determining what the “reasonable risk” we are willing to take is, and this is the type of question regulators will be required to address when licensing AV to navigate our roads.

Geographic Scale — Geographic scale refers to the challenge of creating high-definition maps with great detail and accuracy, and keeping those maps continuously updated, which is crucial for series production AVs. AMaaS vehicles can be confined to geofenced areas, which allows AVs to reach prominence through the robotaxi industry before expanding the operational driving domain to outside of those areas. While robotaxi operators may be successful providing their services in limited geofenced areas, broad-based consumer AV adoption requires the ability to drive safely anywhere, and in diverse environments, rather than only in geofenced areas.

Cost — The cost of a self-driving system commonly employed by robotaxis, with its cameras, radars, LiDARs, and high-performance computing is currently in the tens of thousands of dollars. This cost level is acceptable for the monetization model of a driverless ride-hailing service, but is far too expensive for series-production passenger cars. In order for autonomous driving consumer vehicles to scale in volume, we believe the cost of the self-driving system needs to be reduced significantly, such as to several thousands of dollars, an order of magnitude lower than the cost of market solutions to date. The ability to scale at low-cost, both from the on-board technology perspective and the cost

of mapping, is critical to the mass adoption of AVs. AVs need to be safe, yet affordable, to achieve adoption among individuals and not just fleet operators.
Our Solutions
We are building a robust portfolio of end-to-end ADAS and autonomous driving solutions to provide the capabilities needed for the future of autonomous driving, leveraging a comprehensive suite of purpose-built software and hardware technologies. We pioneered “base” ADAS features to meet global regulatory requirements and safety ratings with our Driver Assist solution and we have since created a new category of ADAS with our Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist and Premium Driver Assist offerings. Additionally, by leveraging Mobileye SuperVision’s full-surround computer vision and True Redundancy, we are developing Mobileye Chauffeur, our consumer AV solution with a human driver still in the driver’s seat that may require driver intervention in certain situations, and Mobileye Drive, our Level 4 autonomous driving solution. Together with Moovit’s urban mobility and transit application and its global user base, we are developing our own AMaaS offering for consumers built upon Mobileye Drive.
Our End-to-End ADAS and AV Solutions
Driver Assist
Base Driver Assist functions are foundational to our spectrum of ADAS and AV solutions and include critical safety features such as real-time detection of road users, geometry, semantics, and markings to provide safety alerts and emergency interventions. Our software algorithms and purpose-built hardware are designed to provide the driver with accurate and reliable driver assist solutions, promoting road safety.
Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist
Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist provides drivers with high-accuracy interpretations of a scene in real-time utilizing centimeter-level drivable path accuracy, foresight of the path ahead, and other semantic information provided by our crowdsourced REM mapping system. This additional input to the environmental model enhances speed and quality of the system’s decision-making. Our Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist solution is category-defining and, with our REM mapping system, offers comprehensive in-path assist functionality through lateral vehicle control to maintain the driving path even when lane markings are partly visible or absent and through longitudinal vehicle control to adjust speed based on traffic signs, road markings, road conditions, and other traffic directions or hazards, independently of the driver. It additionally provides information of the road ahead, including geometry and driving semantics, and the often-complicated association of semantic indications to the different driving paths (e.g., traffic lights and traffic signs lane association) by relying on data from prior human driving activity on those roads.
Our Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist offering was incorporated in Ford’s BlueCruise, beginning in 2021, across multiple makes and models, and Volkswagen announced in early 2022 that our Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist offering is being incorporated in Volkswagen’s Travel Assist 2.5.

Mobileye SuperVisionTM
Mobileye SuperVision, our Premium Driver Assist offering, is a fully operational point-to-point assisted driving navigation solution and includes cloud-based enhancements such as REM and supports OTA updates. Mobileye SuperVision includes our RSS policy model and 360-degree surround sensing with 11 cameras powered by a turnkey ECU with two EyeQ® 5 SoCs. Furthermore, in addition to supervised point-to-point assisted driving, Mobileye SuperVision is capable of changing lanes, managing priorities, and turning in intersections as well as engaging in automated parking, preventative steering, and braking, and other Driver Assist features. Mobileye SuperVision is built upon our camera-only subsystem. The 11 cameras (seven long range cameras and four parking cameras) provide full surround coverage and consist of 8-megapixel 120-degree and 28-degree cameras in the front, four 100-degree corner 8-megapixel cameras (two in the front and two in the rear), a 60-degree rear 8-megapixel camera and four wide-view 192-degree parking cameras mounted on the side mirrors and front and rear bumpers. The mapping is powered by REM to create a 360-degree environmental model, and RSS constrains the driving decisions to be compliant with an underlying formally proven model for safe driving decisions.
Geely Group recently launched Mobileye SuperVision in its Zeekr premium electric vehicle brand in 2021. The integration of Mobileye Roadbook is expected in 2022 through an Over-the-Air update.

Mobileye Drive, our Level 4 solution, will encompass our core autonomous driving technologies found in Mobileye Chauffeur (360-degrees of coverage, REM, True Redundancy, and RSS) and will deliver the driving functions without the need for any in-vehicle human intervention by adding teleoperability and by minimizing cases where human input would be required. Mobileye Drive is designed to be powered by eight EyeQ®5High SoCs (versus six EyeQ®5High SoCs on Mobileye Chauffeur) and, by 2025, it will be powered by an EyeQ Ultra SoC, offering more compute with less power consumption. The overall solution will provide a turnkey self-driving system for movement of people and goods that is applicable to various vehicle configurations (such as passenger vehicles, special purpose pods / vehicles, shuttles, and buses) and will be relevant across the range of potential networks (including AMaaS, last-mile delivery and commercial delivery fleets).
Mobileye Drive may be offered across two increasingly vertically integrated product sets each underpinned by our full set of autonomous driving technology solutions:

Self-Driving System & Vehicles.   We expect to sell our Mobileye Drive Level 4 self-driving system through business-to-business channels into a range of transportation network operators and vehicle OEMs which would operate a variety of services (e.g., consumer-facing AMaaS, transportation on demand, and the delivery of goods). Example partners are Beep, Benteler, Lohr, Marubeni, RATP Group, Schaeffler, Transdev, Udelv, and Willer. We recently announced a strategic collaboration with Benteler and Beep to develop and deploy fully electric, autonomous movers in public and private communities across North America aimed at first- and last-mile use cases in urban areas.

AMaaS.   Additionally, Mobileye Drive will be designed to interface with Moovit’s MaaS platform, which adds a service layer and a ready-made user base. As of April 2, 2022, Moovit had over 1.4 billion users globally and service in over 3,500 cities across 112 countries, and was generating approximately six billion anonymous data points daily, tracking mobility demand patterns globally, enabling a key mobility intelligence layer that can be used to intelligently predict ride demand and thus help to optimize fleet utilization. We believe this represents one of the world’s largest repositories of transit and mobility data. Moovit’s global user base will provide a ready consumer base for our business-to-business customers. It also will provide the necessary service and user-base layer within our own AMaaS solution where we plan to deploy Mobileye — Drive-enabled self-driving vehicles in an AMaaS network in partnership with fleet operators. Initial commercial deployments of this full-stack service are expected to take place in Munich and Tel Aviv.

Overall, we believe our proprietary set of software and hardware technology solutions, results in significant competitive advantages and a wider range of potential offerings compared to other approaches by industry participants attempting to commercialize network-deployed autonomous vehicles.

Our Data Driven Network Effect
We have assembled a substantial dataset of real-world driving experience, encompassing over 200 petabytes of data, which includes over 23 million clips collected over decades of driving on urban, highway, and arterial roads in over 80 countries. This data, plus proprietary search tools, enables us to develop and continuously improve our advanced computer vision algorithms to fit road scenarios and use cases that our system encounters. We utilize up to approximately 500,000 cloud CPU cores to process approximately 100 petabytes of data every month. We have developed sophisticated 2D and 3D automatic-labeling methodologies that, together with a team of over 2,300 external specialized annotators, allow for fast development cycles for our computer vision engines based on the dataset we have. In addition, our advanced data labeling infrastructure and data mining tools can unlock significant data-driven insights.
Additionally, we have created a separate dataset of 4.3 billion miles of roads driven as of April 2, 2022 from, based on our estimates, approximately 1.5 million REM-enabled vehicles worldwide. We then apply a series of on-cloud algorithms to build this crowd-sourced data into a high-definition, rapidly updating map that contains a rich variety of information, including road geometry, drivable paths, common speeds, right-of-way, and traffic light-to-lane associations.
These two datasets create powerful network effects as we seek to continually improve our solutions as more vehicles are deployed with our technology.
Our REM-enabled solutions continuously harvest high-precision data that is analyzed in the cloud, creating a large repository of real-world dataset from 15 million daily mapped miles of roads, varying by types and geography.

As we continue to rapidly scale our offerings, the benefits of greater data and higher intelligence incorporated into our REM mapping system not only accrue to our own platform, but also deliver benefits to our customers and to consumers through greater safety and expanded functionality. As the capabilities of our ADAS and autonomous driving solutions improve, we believe that consumer demand for our offerings will increase and lead to greater platform adoption, further accelerating our data collection worldwide. We believe our combination of data and intelligence gives us a significant competitive advantage and differentiates us as a scaled leader capable of advancing full autonomous solution capabilities based on real world road experience data and continuous validation of the safety solution. For example, we utilize our substantial dataset to build and improve the practical implementation of robotic decision making, which is referred to as “driving policy,” that formalizes a driving safety concept. Our autonomous driving solutions are founded on our core sensing and perception technologies and proprietary algorithms, and the safety validation of these solutions through continuous OTA enhancements. We believe the ability to drive autonomously in any environment in any condition at any time across urban, highway and arterial roads globally should be the goal. Doing so not only requires a significant amount of data, but also successfully solving and validating in a scalable way the challenges of delivering a safe solution at each level of autonomy. With a broad installed-base of REM connected vehicles that are collecting data and continually enhancing our solutions, we believe we are well positioned to build on our leadership position.

Our Large and Growing Market Opportunity
We define our market opportunity in terms of the TAM , which encompasses all hardware, software, and services required to address the current and future ADAS and AV markets, and our SAM, which is the estimated portion of the TAM that we believe we can address through our technology solutions and services. We define the near-term TAM and SAM in respect of the estimated market size in or about 2026 and the long-term TAM and SAM in respect of the estimated market size in or about 2030.
The TAM combines our market opportunities in ADAS and AV, including AMaaS. We estimate the current TAM to be approximately $16 billion, composed entirely of selected ADAS market opportunities. We expect the near-term TAM to be approximately $40 billion, and the long-term TAM to be approximately $480 billion, as the value of ADAS functionality increases and as AV deployment, both in consumer-owned vehicles and fleet-owned vehicle networks, accelerates. While the AV market is in its infancy today, we expect the deployment of solutions for this market to significantly increase, resulting in a substantial market opportunity for us. We believe we are currently at an inflection point to enable autonomous driving on a global scale. Combining market opportunities in ADAS and AV, including AMaaS, we estimate our current SAM to be approximately $5 billion and our near-term SAM to be approximately $21 billion, in each case, composed entirely of selected ADAS market opportunities, and we estimate our long-term SAM to be approximately $455 billion, which includes AV deployment.

ADAS
We believe that ongoing and major regulatory changes, coupled with increased customer awareness of the benefits of active safety technology, will drive ADAS adoption to the point where the vast majority of new cars produced will be equipped with one or more ADAS features. Additionally, we believe that cloud-based enhancements such as Mobileye’s REMTM will provide additional value and functionality that will be increasingly available and cost-effective. In parallel, we see the emergence of the premium ADAS segment. The prominence of this segment is driven by products such as Mobileye SuperVision,TM which relies on the combination of cloud enhancements and cost-effective, high-resolution surround sensing that enables highly automated driving features across a wide range of road types and driving conditions
ADAS TAM:   We define the ADAS market as that for assisted driving solutions that support the driver, and the ADAS TAM as the market for select hardware and software components that enable this technology. We estimate the current ADAS TAM to be approximately $16 billion, near-term TAM to be approximately $31 billion and long-term TAM to be approximately $60 billion.
ADAS SAM: We define our ADAS SAM as the portion of the TAM that we believe can be addressed by our solutions in the Driver Assist, Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist, and Premium Driver Assist categories. We estimate our current ADAS SAM to be $5 billion and our near-term SAM to be approximately $12 billion, as consumer adoption of premium ADAS increases in the near-term. We estimate that our

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
ADAS SAM will continue to grow and estimate our long-term SAM to be approximately $35 billion. We believe our ADAS SAM will represent a larger percentage of the ADAS TAM over time, as we continue to increase our breadth of content in the overall ADAS value chain beyond the historical product set to include additional solutions such as driver monitoring systems, high-definition maps, hands-free point-to-point driving applications, and central compute ECUs.
Autonomous Vehicles
We believe the future of autonomous driving will unfold in two phases: commercial services such as robotaxis and commercial delivery (AMaaS), and passenger car consumer-owned AVs. The main inhibitors of a mass market product offering of consumer AVs include the cost of AV technology, the ability to scale geographically at a low cost, the regulatory framework and public acceptance. We see both the AMaaS vehicles and consumer AV deploying in parallel to unlock the full potential of this market. We divide the AV TAM into an AMaaS TAM and a Consumer AV TAM. We do not make a distinction between TAM and SAM in this market as we believe our technology and business solutions can address this market in an end-to-end manner.
AMaaS TAM
We define the AMaaS TAM as that for fleet-owned electric AVs that provide mobility-as-a-service and goods delivery and that will be supported by teleoperation services and will not require a driver. We believe these autonomous fleets will start by servicing limited geofenced areas, increasing over time to broader geographies.
We estimate the near term AMaaS TAM to be approximately $5 billion, increasing significantly to be approximately $360 billion in the long term. This estimate is based on estimated total miles traveled by the AMaaS fleet and the estimated cost per mile that will be paid by the user. We utilize the cost of consumer automobile ownership to estimate the revenue potential for the AMaaS market.
Consumer AV TAM
We define the Consumer AV TAM as that for consumer-owned electric AVs capable of “eyes-off/hands- free” driving in a gradually expanding operational driving domain. Within this category, we include the set of limited operational design domain systems currently being pursued by us and other market participants (e.g., low-speed, highway-only “traffic jam pilot” systems). We also include the much more expansive operational design domain system that we are pursuing through our Mobileye Chauffeur™ solution.
We see Mobileye Chauffeur™ as a solution that will employ an approach that we believe is unique among other market participants. It will be enabled through an end-to-end set of proprietary Mobileye technologies that address the key inhibitors to consumer AV adoption of cost-effectiveness and geographic scalability, as we are targeting a solution that will enable L4 capabilities with an AV content value at under $6,000. We believe this solution will be able to unlock substantial market growth in the Consumer AV category over time, a market category that is not yet understood or forecasted by most third-party research providers.
We estimate the near-term Consumer AV TAM to be approximately $4 billion and the long-term TAM to be approximately $60 billion. This estimate is based on an estimate for the number of Consumer AVs produced in a particular year and an estimate of the average AV content value per vehicle for the technology that enables the AV system.
We estimate the resulting total AV TAM (including AMaaS and Consumer AV) in the near term to be approximately $9 billion, significantly increasing to approximately $420 billion in the long term.

The estimates of the TAM and SAM are based on our internal estimates and forecasts, which involve a number of assumptions and limitations, including assumptions regarding our expectations of the market acceptance of autonomous driving and ADAS and the manner in which this new and rapidly evolving market will develop. These estimates, forecasts, assumptions, and expectations may differ from information contained in industry publications and reports or other publicly available information. While we believe our assumptions and the data underlying our estimates and forecasts are reasonable, these assumptions, estimates and forecasts may not be correct and may change at any time. As a result, our assumptions, estimates and forecasts may prove to be incorrect, and the TAM and our SAM may be smaller than we have estimated. See “Risk Factors — We operate in an industry that is new and rapidly evolving, and the estimates and forecasts of TAM and SAM included in this prospectus are subject to significant uncertainty” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
Our Competitive Strengths
We believe that our leadership in ADAS and autonomous driving is based primarily on our: (1) first-mover advantage; (2) technology, including differentiated technological cores and solution architectures; (3) comprehensive portfolio of solutions; (4) delivery, including agility, response times, and time-to-market; and (5) inherent cost-driven advantages. These significant advantages form the basis for our competitive strengths described below:

Coupling of software and hardware delivers optimized performance and efficiency — We design our own purpose-built SoCs and develop a software stack to optimally match the architecture of the SoCs. This results in an optimized cost/performance paradigm, allowing for a range of products that can be produced at high volume. Our coupled software and hardware architecture is highly differentiated from general purpose SoCs and software stacks that are not optimized for a specific use case. Our approach results in low power consumption and lean compute, yet is able to support a very powerful range of solutions for the ADAS and AV markets.

Scalable EyeQ® SoC design addresses the entire spectrum of ADAS and autonomous driving — Our proprietary accelerator cores are optimized for a wide variety of computer vision, signal processing, and machine learning tasks, including deep neural networks. Our EyeQ® architecture is highly scalable, powers our solutions, ranging from our base ADAS to highly advanced autonomous driving solutions, and is designed to support the increasingly computationally intensive demands of ADAS and autonomous driving solutions on the same architecture. We believe that our recently announced EyeQ Ultra, effectively an AV-on-Chip, will enable us to build a self-driving system at affordable consumer cost levels in the future.

Industry leading computer vision capabilities — ADAS solutions are responsible for saving lives and must meet very high-performance metrics with extreme levels of efficiency, and pass increasing oversight from regulatory bodies — “good enough” is simply not acceptable. We are a technology leader for computer vision solutions for ADAS, and we have continuously enhanced our leadership position since we launched with customers in 2007 through our ability to meet the extreme performance, accuracy, and cost metrics of our OEM customers. Our products primarily use monocular camera processing that works accurately alone, or together with radar and LiDAR for
 
108

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
redundancy. We have been responsible for many “industry first” launches using monocular vision processing. These include forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, pedestrian detection, hands-free driving, and numerous other advanced functions based solely on computer vision. We have pioneered many computer vision features such as deep networks for the discovery of “free space” or the space available to the vehicle to drive in, so that a vehicle can determine a driving path without having a collision. We have enhanced our computer vision capabilities over time to include multiple cameras such as the trifocal camera configuration (three cameras with different fields of view placed side-by-side facing forward), which has been in series production since 2018, and the 11-camera configuration on our Mobileye SuperVision solution, which was launched in late 2021.

EyeQ Kit for developing and deploying differentiated features on top of EyeQ® SoC — Our platform is modular by design, and it is highly customizable, which allows our customers to benefit from our cutting-edge, verified, and validated core ADAS capabilities while enabling our customers to augment and differentiate their offerings. Our SDK provides access to all EyeQ® accelerators for programming and is enabled by a broad ecosystem of standard and proprietary software. EyeQ Kit brings together a team of compilers, simulators, profilers, and debuggers who have been working together for many years to develop a single software platform optimized for common workloads and industry standards. We believe EyeQ Kit accelerates time to market for our customers at a lower cost than alternative in-house solutions, while strengthening our partnerships by encouraging our customers to customize their offerings on top of our platform.

“Scale by design” approach — Our technology platform is built to deliver autonomous driving solutions at scale by leveraging our REMTM mapping technology, which will allow our solutions to be driven without the limitations of geofencing; our True Redundancy approach, which allows for cost-efficient validation; our RSS and driving policy, which provides a framework for regulatory certainty and lean compute that is critical for mass-deployment; and, our active sensor architecture based on our imaging radars, which we expect will help support consumer AV production at scale in the future.

Autonomous driving-ADAS synergies — The autonomous driving-ADAS interplay, which is borne out of our True Redundancy architecture, is bi-directional: advanced technologies transfer from autonomous driving to ADAS and significantly enhance our market proposition, and in turn, these advanced autonomous driving technologies are validated in commercial, mass market ADAS deployments and contribute to the process of verifying and validating the various elements of our autonomous driving solution stack. Moreover, our scalable architecture provides our OEM partners with operational efficiencies as modular technology platform architecture minimizes the OEMs’ integration and validation burden as our solutions can be seamlessly deployed across multiple vehicle segments.

Road Experience Managementcreates a powerful network effect and long-term competitive advantage — Our REM system is a crucial ingredient that we believe allows for: (1) defining a new category of cloud-enhanced ADAS that we call Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist, where information in Mobileye Roadbook enhances existing ADAS functions such as lane keeping assist and lane-centering and allows for new functions such as the analysis of behavior patterns in intersections and near traffic signs and lights; (2) evolving ADAS to an “eyes-on/hands-free” point-to-point assisted driving navigation; and (3) the scale deployment of AV. REM is complex, requiring advanced processing at the edge (for creating processed data to be sent to the cloud and for localizing the vehicle at centimeter-level accuracy in Mobileye Roadbook), and computationally intensive processing in the cloud to build Mobileye Roadbook from billions of data packets sent from millions of vehicles — all automatically. REM benefits from a powerful network effect, where more vehicles with REM enabled technology from which we are able to collect and process data, not only improves our own solutions, but also delivers benefits to our customers and to consumers through greater safety and expanded functionality. We believe this network effect creates a powerful competitive advantage, particularly given our leadership position in ADAS, as we are able to efficiently collect large amounts of data from our consumer solutions already deployed on roads globally through their regular use. Our AV maps also support our efforts to deploy in new cities and geographies quickly, and in 2021, we announced the expected initial commercial deployment of our AMaaS offering in

Munich and Tel Aviv together with Moovit in addition to our current testing sites in China, Israel, Detroit, Miami, Munich, Paris, Stuttgart and Tokyo.

Data and technology advantage — Developing effective ADAS technology is technologically complex, and requires the development of large validation datasets in order to train the required software algorithms effectively, a long-term commitment to validation and qualification with an OEM before series production can even begin, and significant financial resources. We have assembled a substantial dataset of real-world driving experience, encompassing over 200 petabytes of data, which includes over 23 million clips collected over decades of driving on urban, highway, and arterial roads in over 80 countries that enable us to develop advanced computer vision algorithms to fit road scenarios and use cases that our system encounters. We utilize up to approximately 500,000 cloud CPU cores to process approximately 100 petabytes of data every month. We have developed sophisticated 2D and 3D automatic-labeling methodologies that, together with a team of over 2,300 external specialized annotators, allow for fast development cycles for our computer vision engines based on the dataset we have. In addition, our advanced data labeling infrastructure and data mining tools can unlock significant data-driven insights. In parallel, we have created a rich dataset of 4.3 billion miles of roads driven as of April 2, 2022 from, based on our estimates, approximately 1.5 million REM™-enabled vehicles worldwide. Our dataset creates a powerful network effect as we seek to continually improve our solutions as more vehicles are deployed with our technology.

RSS and driving policy are designed for global deployment — We published our RSS model in 2017, to address the regulatory and public debate regarding, and enable the acceptance of, “eyes-off/hands-free” autonomous solutions. RSS is the key enabler of our lean compute driving policy design, where we distinctly separate driving comfort features from safety-related inhibitions and adjustments. Our framework monitors and establishes driving policy by identifying intentions in order to only predict the plausible actions of road users, significantly reducing possible options and computational demands. Our RSS-based driving policy is designed for global deployment, as it does not need to be tailored to specific driving cultures. In 2021, we announced the expected initial commercial deployment of our AMaaS offering in Munich and Tel Aviv together with Moovit in addition to our current testing sites in China, Israel, Detroit, Miami, Munich, Paris, Stuttgart and Tokyo.

Purpose-built imaging-radar unlocks consumer AV at scale — We are developing software-defined imaging-radar with cutting-edge dynamic range and resolution. Our differentiated True Redundancy architecture, which is adaptable to different LiDAR architectures, will leverage our imaging-radar, which we believe will give us the ability to significantly reduce the cost of the overall sensor suite by replacing multiple, expensive LiDARs around the vehicle, with only a single front-facing LiDAR sensor, which we believe will support consumer AV production at scale.

Moovit provides a stand-ready user base for our AMaaS solutions — Moovit is our urban mobility and transit application. As of April 2, 2022, Moovit had over 1.4 billion users globally and service in over 3,500 cities across 112 countries, and was generating approximately six billion anonymous data points daily, tracking mobility demand patterns globally, enabling a key mobility intelligence layer that can be used to intelligently predict ride demand and thus help to optimize fleet utilization. We believe this represents one of the world’s largest repositories of transit and mobility data. Moovit also offers a MaaS solution to cities, and transit agencies covering planning, operations, and optimization of their mobility systems. Moovit’s applications provide powerful AI-powered urban mobility services covering planning, operations, and analytics for multimodal trips.

Deep, collaborative ecosystem relationships — Our deep global relationships with key partners across the value chain, from component suppliers, through Tier 1 customers and up to OEMs, offer us a broad and diverse set of collaboration opportunities for high-performance computing, networking, and advanced packaging technologies, among others, from the vehicle to the cloud. Together with our partners, we believe that we can accelerate the pace of autonomous innovation and market adoption
Our Growth Strategies
Key levers of our growth strategy are:

Benefit from regulatory and safety rating changes promoting base ADAS — We intend to continue to lead and deliver upon global regulatory and safety requirements for base ADAS features by
 
110

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
maintaining and enhancing our vision only solution. We expect a strong increase in base ADAS fitment rates due to global regulatory and safety requirements, as OEMs move to adopt standard ADAS technology for the vast majority of new model launches. We plan to continue to leverage our technology leadership and strong customer relationships to position us for additional design wins with high production volumes. As of April 2, 2022, our solutions had been installed in approximately 800 vehicle models (including local country, year, and other vehicle model variations), and our SoCs had been deployed in over 100 million vehicles. We are actively working with more than 50 OEMs worldwide on the implementation of our ADAS solutions and we announced over 40 new design wins in 2021 alone. We estimate, based on our existing design wins through April 2, 2022, that our ADAS solutions will be deployed in more than an additional 250 million vehicles by 2030, including approximately 50 million vehicles based on our 2021 design wins. These estimates are based on projections of future production volumes that were provided by the OEMs at the time of sourcing our design wins with them for the models related to those design wins. These estimates may deviate from actual production volumes (which may be higher or lower than the estimates) and do not include design wins after April 2, 2022. We believe that our comprehensive stack of solutions and proven success at scale will enable us to further solidify our industry leadership.

Capitalize on Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist features — We have pioneered a cloud-enhanced ADAS solution, which offers customers using advanced EyeQ® versions (EyeQ®4 and above) a significant value through our REM technology. Our Cloud-Enhanced Driver Assist solution is capable of utilizing our EyeQ® SoCs and entry level camera technologies to deliver feature enhancements over time. Our Cloud-Enhanced Premium ADAS features range in complexity from all road-type lane keeping assist and lane centering, to Cross-Junction Assist, to Traffic Jam Assist. We will continue to grow the depth and breadth of our AV maps, which currently include 4.3 billion miles of mapped roads as of April 2, 2022 from, based on our estimates, approximately 1.5 million REM™-enabled vehicles worldwide in order to deliver leading ADAS capabilities. In the future, we plan to create revenue streams from our OTA capabilities and AV maps through solution upgrades.

Further enhance and drive adoption of our Premium Driver Assist solution — Our Mobileye SuperVision solution represents a comprehensive “eyes-on/hands-free” ADAS solution. It was recently launched by Geely Group for its Zeekr premium electric vehicle brand, and has secured additional design wins with the Geely Group for Mobileye SuperVision. We believe that the high value-add, our continuous efforts to add capabilities, as well as the competitive price point of Mobileye SuperVision will allow it to gain strong market traction in the coming years. In addition, our Mobileye SuperVision configuration of sensors and compute can also be transformed into an effective “360 guardian,” helping the driver avoid accidents, as referenced in our Vision Zero publications. We believe that Mobileye SuperVision has the potential to transform ADAS at its core, potentially leading to adoption driven by regulatory requirements and safety ratings of a Mobileye SuperVision-like solution in its own category, similar to how safety-ratings and regulation have driven the adoption of base ADAS beginning in 2014.

Innovate and commercialize our next-generation autonomous driving solutions — Propelled by our next generation AV-on-Chip SoC, which we call EyeQ Ultra, our surround computer vision Mobileye SuperVision solution and our True Redundancy architecture, we believe that we will be positioned to deliver an autonomous driving solution that can enable the mass adoption of AV. We plan to continue to develop innovative and cost-optimized solutions to deliver comprehensive capabilities for mass market adoption to our customers based on key technology breakthroughs such as our EyeQ Ultra SoC design, surround computer vision Mobileye SuperVision solution and True Redundancy architecture. We believe the introduction of our premium ADAS capabilities with our recently launched Mobileye SuperVision solution and our Level 4 capabilities with Mobileye Drive will help us continue to provide our customers with innovative solutions and enable further growth for us. We plan to continue to build and enhance our full-stack technology platform in order to offer an affordable, time-saving and much safer driving experience, which we believe will propel the mass-market adoption of autonomous driving solutions.

Utilize our flexible platform to expand our collaboration with our OEM customers — We have designed our EyeQ® SoCs together with an EyeQ Kit™ to enable co-hosting of third-party software and customer workloads on vehicles equipped with our solutions. We plan to continue to develop

our platform to offer our customers the ability to seamlessly address the additional capabilities and features that they demand by customizing their offerings on top of our platform. We are partnering with leading technology suppliers to expand our products by offering features and services alongside our core technology platform such as driver monitoring systems, parking functions, and visualization features. In addition, our SDKs enable OEMs to innovate on top of our platform, augmenting and differentiating their offerings, while benefiting from our cutting-edge, verified and validated core ADAS capabilities.

Capitalize on our active sensor technology — We intend to continue to develop and commercialize next-generation active sensors such as software-defined imaging radars, which leverage our AI capabilities. Our software-defined imaging radars are designed to form a standalone “sensing state” layer which can be utilized as a sensing layer on its own, enabling 360-degree coverage, replacing multiple LiDAR sensors and requiring only a single front-facing LiDAR. Together with Intel, we also are currently in the early stages of development of FMCW LiDAR, which has the potential to replace alternative third-party LiDAR to further enhance the performance of our sensor suite. We believe enhancing our sensing and perception technology leadership will further strengthen our competitive position and allow us to offer additional differentiated and cost-effective solutions to our customers.

Accelerate our roadmap of next generation proprietary EyeQ® SoCs — We believe that we have created the standard for processors focused on computer vision. Our EyeQ® SoCs are purpose-built for sensing and perception technologies and optimized for high throughput and power efficiency. We intend to continue to accelerate our technology leadership with a focus on silicon, packaging, and systems level needs to deliver cost-efficient processing at the edge. EyeQ Ultra, which we announced in January 2022, will leverage 5nm process technology and be built to address the needs of Level 4 AV without requiring the additional power and cost that comes with multiple SoCs integrated together. Our architecture is highly scalable and is designed to support the increasing and computationally intensive demands of future autonomous driving applications.

Utilize our substantial and growing dataset to continuously improve the intelligence and robustness of our solutions — We will continue to grow the depth and breadth of our substantial dataset, which, as of April 2, 2022, encompassed over 200 petabytes of data and 4.3 billion miles of AV mapped roads from, based on our estimates, approximately 1.5 million REM-enabled vehicles worldwide. We believe that our ability to use this data to create, maintain, and improve our high-precision AV maps through our REM mapping system will enable us to further improve our ADAS offerings and position us well for autonomous driving.

Establish our Level 4 autonomous and AMaaS solutions — We believe that Mobileye Chauffeur and Mobileye Drive will unlock new use cases and end-consumers for our OEM and fleet-owner customers, which will be applicable for both the AMaaS and consumer AV markets. We expect to add additional cities to our AMaaS offerings to showcase our industry-leading technology and to help accelerate the pace of AV adoption. We also expect to continue to invest in our ecosystem partnerships with OEMs and fleet operators in order to foster close collaboration and further commercialize our autonomous technologies.

Benefit from opportunities in large emerging markets — We intend to continue to invest in partnerships in China and India, among other emerging markets, to accelerate ADAS and autonomous driving adoption. In India, Mahindra & Mahindra, one of the country’s largest automakers, has recently launched the first vehicle made locally to offer ADAS capabilities — the XUV700 powered by our EyeQ® SoC. Its accessible price point compared to imported alternatives expands the ADAS reach to a broader range of consumers in one of the most populous countries in the world. We believe our long-term partnerships with large Chinese OEMs such as Geely, Great Wall Motors, and SAIC, and Indian OEMs such as Mahindra & Mahindra position our solutions at the forefront of continued innovation and market growth.

In addition to significant upgrades of all of the above functions, EyeQ®3 supports full braking AEB, structure from motion functionalities, road profile reconstruction, debris detection, general object detection, traffic light detection and REM. EyeQ®3 was an industry first with Highway Autopilot, Camera-only AEB and full in path assisted driving.

EyeQ®4 Mid and EyeQ®4 High — launched in early 2018. EyeQ®4 supports processing from multiple cameras (including multi-focal or ultra-high-resolution front facing and side/rear), as well as other sensor perception modalities through two models: EyeQ®4 Mid and EyeQ®4 High. EyeQ®4 Mid is a one-box windshield solution that offers around 1.1 tera operations per second (“TOPS”) supporting up to Level 2 functionality and EyeQ®4 High offers 2 TOPS supporting REM mapping and localization to provide Level 2+ functionalities. EyeQ®4 was the first SoC to support REM Map Harvesting and an industry first supporting 100-degree cameras.

EyeQ®5 Mid and EyeQ®5 High — designed to act as the central computing processor to enable fully autonomous driving vehicles, EyeQ®5 comes in two forms: EyeQ®5 Mid and EyeQ®5 High. EyeQ®5 Mid is a one-box windshield solution designed to support up to Level 2+ functionality. EyeQ®5 High supports Premium ADAS and up to Level 4 functionality powering both our Mobileye SuperVision and Mobileye Drive solutions. Volume production began in 2021. EyeQ®5 is designed on the 7nm fin field-effect transistor (“FinFET”) technology node and offers around 15 TOPS on the EyeQ®5 High and more than 4 on the EyeQ®5 Mid. We have been able to achieve power, performance, and cost targets by employing proprietary computational cores that are optimized for a wide variety of computer vision, signal processing, and machine learning tasks, including deep neural networks. Starting with EyeQ®5, we are supporting a complete SDK to allow customers to differentiate their solutions by deploying their algorithms on EyeQ®5. EyeQ®5 serves as the computational foundation for our scalable camera-only surround sensing system. The system consists of multiple independent computer vision engines and deep networks for algorithmic redundancy. The result is a robust and comprehensive model of the environment that allows end-to-end autonomous driving. It is also the industry’s first solution supporting 120-degree 8-megapixel cameras.

EyeQ®6 Lite and EyeQ®6 High — announced in January 2022, the EyeQ®6 Lite, a one-box windshield optimized solution, is designed to deliver entry and premium Level 2 ADAS functionality at ultra-low power and high efficiency. Also announced in January 2022, the EyeQ®6 High will support premium ADAS or partial AV capabilities with full surround and support for visualization and heavy AI workloads with 34 TOPS in 40 watts representing lean compute. This centralized solution will

provide all ADAS Level 2 functionalities, multi-camera processing (including parking cameras), and will host third-party apps such as parking visualization and driver monitoring. Both the EyeQ®6 Lite and EyeQ®6 High are designed on the 7nm FinFET process technology node. We expect to release the EyeQ®6 Lite/High in 2023 or 2024 and begin production by the end of 2024.

EyeQ Ultra — announced in January 2022, EyeQ Ultra is designed to maximize both effectiveness and efficiency at 176 TOPS. First silicon for the EyeQ Ultra SoC is expected at the end of 2023, with full automotive-grade production in 2025. EyeQ Ultra is built to address the needs of Level 4 AV without the power and cost to integrate multiple SoCs together. EyeQ Ultra utilizes an array of four classes of proprietary accelerators, each built for a specific task. These accelerators are paired with additional central processing unit cores, ISPs, and GPUs in a highly efficient solution capable of processing input from two sensing subsystems — one camera-only system and the other radar and LiDAR combined — as well as the vehicle’s central computing system, the high-precision AV map and driving policy software. The EyeQ Ultra is designed on the 5nm FinFET process technology node. First silicon for the EyeQ Ultra SoC is expected at the end of 2023, and we expect the EyeQ Ultra SoC to be ready for production in 2025.
Our Partnerships with STMicroelectronics and Intel
Our long-standing relationship with STMicroelectronics continues to strengthen with the complexity of our solutions. Our partnership includes close collaboration in product development, design, and manufacturing. For example, we have co-developed the seven EyeQ® generations, including the recently launched EyeQ®6 and EyeQ Ultra SoCs. We also benefit from STMicroelectronics’ advanced packaging and testing capabilities and automotive expertise. Together with STMicroelectronics, we are working on developing and productizing next-generation automotive-grade technology for high volume automotive applications, which we believe will accelerate the pace of autonomous innovation and market adoption.
Our close partnership with Intel exists on multiple fronts. As a result of our relationship with Intel, we have access to unique and differentiating technologies such as proprietary silicon photonics fabrication technologies, which we may leverage for the early development of our FMCW LiDAR, which has the potential to replace alternative third-party LiDAR sensors to further enhance the performance of our sensor suite. We may also license certain technologies from Intel that support design and development of our software-defined radar, including Intel’s mmWave technologies. Additionally, we intend to explore a collaboration with Intel on a technology platform to integrate our EyeQ® SoC with Intel’s market-leading central compute capability, with plans to utilize Intel Foundry Services’ advanced packaging capabilities. This potential platform is intended to enable functions essential to safety, entertainment, and cloud connectivity. Intel’s strength in government affairs and policy development around the world will continue to be of significant value to us as we collaborate with regulators who are preparing frameworks to enable commercial deployment of AVs.
Manufacturing
Our products are designed and manufactured specifically for automotive applications after extensive validation tests under stringent automotive environmental conditions.
We partner with STMicroelectronics, a leading supplier and innovator of semiconductor devices for automotive applications, in manufacturing, design and research and development. We have co-developed seven generations of our automotive grade SoC, EyeQ®, with STMicroelectronics including EyeQ®5, EyeQ®6 and EyeQ Ultra. We design the front-end and STMicroelectronics designs the back-end package and also includes testing, quality assurance, customer care, failure analysis and manufacturing standards. All of our EyeQ® integrated circuits are manufactured by or outsourced to a partner foundry by STMicroelectronics.
We have also established a relationship with Quanta Computer to develop and assemble our ECUs including our reference design for our Mobileye SuperVision solution, which includes our EyeQ®5 SoCs from STMicroelectronics.
As a result of our relationship with Intel, we have access to unique and differentiating technologies such as proprietary silicon photonics fabrication technologies, capable of putting active and passive optical

elements on a chip together, including lasers and optical amplifiers, loaded onto a photonic integrated circuit. We may leverage this technology, which has the ability to put an active laser in a package, for the early development of our FMCW LiDAR, which has the potential to replace alternative third-party LiDAR sensors to further enhance the performance of our sensor suite.
Regulation and Ratings
Automobile safety is driven by both regulations and the availability to consumers of independent assessments of the safety performance of different car models. These assessments have encouraged OEMs to produce cars that are safer than those required by law. In many countries, these NCAPs have created a “market for safety” as car manufacturers seek to demonstrate that their models satisfy the various NCAPs’ highest ratings.
National NCAPs will continue to add specific ADAS applications to their evaluation items over the next several years, led by the Euro NCAP. In the EU, pre-market approval is required for all vehicles sold, and many manufacturers choose to satisfy a set of technical criteria determined by the Euro NCAP. The Australian, Japanese, and Korean NCAPs’ have fully harmonized their policies with the Euro NCAP. In the United States, ADAS regulation continues to make large strides. For example, the INVEST in America Act, which was passed in late 2021, requires the U.S. Department of Transportation to issue requirements and standards regarding vehicle safety technologies. On the AV front, our RSS driving policy provides a cornerstone for global standardization efforts of the safety of assisted and automated driving, in particular IEEE 2846, a working group of approximately 30 organizations in the industry that we lead.
At the federal level in the United States, the safety of motor vehicles is regulated by the U.S. Department of Transportation through two federal Agencies — the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (the “NHTSA”), which regulates all motor vehicles, and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (the “FMCSA”), which regulates commercial motor vehicles. NHTSA establishes the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (the “FMVSS”) for motor vehicles and motor vehicle equipment and oversees the actions that manufacturers of motor vehicles and motor vehicle equipment are required to take regarding the reporting of information related to defects or injuries related to their products and the recall and repair of vehicles and equipment that contain safety defects or fail to comply with the FMVSS. FMCSA regulates the safety of commercial motor carriers operating in interstate commerce, the qualifications and safety of commercial motor vehicle drivers, and the safe operation of commercial trucks.
While there are currently no mandatory federal U.S. regulations expressly pertaining to the safety of autonomous driving systems, the U.S. Department of Transportation has established recommended voluntary guidelines, and the NHTSA or the FMCSA, as applicable, have authority to take enforcement action should an automated driving system pose an unreasonable risk to safety or inhibit the safe operation of a motor vehicle. Certain U.S. states have legal restrictions on autonomous driving vehicles, and many other states are considering them. These variations increase the legal complexity of deploying our solutions. If discrepancies emerge in the legal restrictions adopted by different U.S. states, our plan is to develop our technology to comply with the strictest standards. We will continue to actively monitor regulatory developments in the U.S. and intend to adjust our products and solutions as needed.
In Europe, certain vehicle safety regulations apply to self-driving braking and steering systems, and certain treaties also restrict the legality of certain higher levels of autonomous driving vehicles. In jurisdictions that follow the regulations of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe, some regulations restrict the design of advanced driver-assistance or self-driving features, which can compromise or prevent their use entirely. Other applicable laws, both current and proposed, may hinder the path and timeline to introducing self-driving vehicles for sale and use in the markets where they apply. Other markets, including China, continue to consider self-driving regulation. Any implemented regulations may differ materially from those in the United States and Europe, which may further increase the legal complexity of self-driving vehicles and limit or prevent certain features. Autonomous driving laws and regulations are expected to continue to evolve in numerous jurisdictions in the United States and foreign countries and may create restrictions on autonomous driving features that we develop.
In order for us to operate in international markets outside the United States, we must comply with relevant legal regulations regarding autonomous vehicles as well as technology export control, data security,

cybersecurity and other related regulations that apply to global technology companies. We have developed robust compliance processes and procedures related to these regulatory requirements and believe that we are in compliance with such requirements. We do not believe there are any regulatory restrictions that would materially restrict our ability to operate in our key markets of the United States, Israel, China or Europe. We are in regular dialogue with the relevant regulatory policy bodies globally and intend to continue to comply with these regulations or any updates thereof.
Data Privacy
Privacy is fundamental to Mobileye. We collect, process, transmit, and store personal information in connection with the operation of our business and are subject to a variety of local, state, national and international laws, directives and regulations that apply to the collection, use, retention, protection, security, disclosure, transfer and other processing of personal data in the different jurisdictions in which we operate. Data collected by the camera of our solutions during the development cycle of a project may include personal information such as license plate numbers of other vehicles, facial features of pedestrians, appearance of individuals, GPS data, and geolocation data in order to train the data analytics and AI technology equipped in our solutions for the purpose of identifying different objects and predicting potential issues that may arise during the operation of a motor vehicle. Our data-collection processes implement strict methodologies to comply with data protection and privacy laws, including the European General Data Protection Regulation and the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (the “CCPA”).
We leverage systems and applications that are spread over the countries in which we do business, requiring us to regularly move data across national borders. As a result, we are subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the United States, China, the European Union, and other foreign jurisdictions as well as contractual obligations, regarding data privacy, protection, and security.
The scope and interpretation of the laws and regulations that are or may be applicable to us are often uncertain and may be conflicting, particularly with respect to foreign laws. We are subject to the E.U. General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR”), which became effective in May 2018. EU member states have enacted certain implementing legislation that adds to and/or further interprets the GDPR requirements. The GDPR, together with national legislation, regulations and guidelines of the EU member states and the United Kingdom governing the processing of personal data, impose strict obligations and restrictions on the ability to collect, use, retain, protect, disclose, transfer, and otherwise process personal data with respect to EU and UK data subjects. In particular, the GDPR includes obligations and restrictions concerning the consent and rights of individuals to whom the personal data relates, the transfer of personal data out of the EEA or the United Kingdom, security breach notifications and the security and confidentiality of personal data. Other countries have enacted or are considering enacting similar cross-border data transfer rules or data localization requirements.
Additionally, on June 28, 2018, California enacted the CCPA, which came into effect on January 1, 2020. The CCPA creates individual privacy rights for California residents and increases the privacy and security obligations of entities handling personal data of California consumers and meeting certain thresholds. In addition, many similar laws have been proposed at the federal level and in other states. State laws are changing rapidly and there is discussion in Congress of a new federal data protection and privacy law to which we would become subject if it is enacted.
In China, the PRC Cyber Security Law became effective on June 1, 2017. The Cyber Security Law reaffirms the basic principles and requirements specified in other existing laws and regulations on personal information protection, such as the requirements on the collection, use, processing, storage, and disclosure of personal information. Specifically, it requires that network operators take technical measures and other necessary measures in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and the compulsory requirements of the national and industrial standards to safeguard the safe and stable operation of its networks, maintain the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of network data, take technical and other necessary measures to ensure the security of the personal information they have collected against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or loss, and formulate contingency plans for network security incidents and remediation measures. It also requires a subset of network operators that meet certain thresholds to be critical information infrastructure operators (“CIIO”) to store personal information and important data collected and generated during its operation within the territory of China locally on servers in China.

Our Competition
The ADAS and autonomous driving industries are highly competitive. In the ADAS and consumer AV market, we face competition primarily from other external providers including Tier 1 automotive suppliers and silicon providers, and in-house solutions developed by the OEMs. Our Tier 1 customers may be developing or may in the future develop competing solutions. For example, certain of our competitors have announced that they are operating autonomous robotaxis. Tier 1 automotive supplier competitors include Bosch, Continental, and Denso. Our silicon provider competitors include Ambarella, Advanced Micro Devices, Arriver / Qualcomm, Black Sesame Technologies, Horizon Robotics, Huawei, NVIDIA, NXP, Renesas Electronics, and Texas Instruments. OEMs who have or are pursuing their own in-house solutions are also indirect competitors, with Tesla and Mercedes-Benz being examples of automakers taking that approach today, with others such as General Motors, NIO, Volvo Cars, and Xpeng Motors also pursuing in-house solutions for portions of the ADAS software stack. In the future, our indirect competitors could become direct competitors.
In the autonomous driving market, including AMaaS and consumer AV, we face competition from technology companies, internal development teams from the automakers themselves, sometimes in combination with investments in early-stage autonomous vehicle technology companies, Tier 1 automotive companies, as well as robotaxi providers. AMaaS competitors include Argo AI, Aurora, Cruise, Motional, Pony.ai, Waymo, Yandex, and Zoox in the United States and Europe and Auto X, Baidu, Deeproute.ai, Didi Chuxing, Momenta, and WeRide in China. Consumer AV competitors include Apple, Sony, and Tesla, who are developing self-driving vehicles for consumers.
Developing effective ADAS technology is technologically complex, requires the development of large validation datasets in order to train the required software algorithms effectively, requires a long-term commitment to validation and qualification with an OEM before series production can even begin, and requires significant financial resources. In addition, our tightly coupled software and hardware solutions, which are based on highly advanced, road-tested, sensing and perception technologies from decades of leadership in computer vision and powered by our mission critical software and purpose-built EyeQ® family of SoCs are extremely hard to replicate.
Moovit competes against urban mobility applications and MaaS solutions which provide transportation services and navigation data to consumers. Moovit’s free application competition includes Alphabet, Apple, Citymapper, and Transit. Moovit’s application also competes with on-demand service providers that provide multi-modal ride services and route planning through their own services including Lyft, TransLoc, Trapeze, Uber, and Via.
The principal competitive factors impacting the market for our solutions include:

completeness of our technology platform including SoCs, sensing and perception technologies, sensor fusion architecture, high-precision mapping system, and supporting software and algorithms;

ability to design and develop ADAS and autonomous driving solutions that meet our customers’ needs;

automotive quality standards, compliance, and performance in all areas of ADAS and autonomous driving;

agile software validation and robust product release discipline;

scalability, and cost efficiency of our solutions;

engineering capabilities, the ability to innovate and continuously improve our technology;

pricing;

design and development support for our customers;

manufacturing reliability and the ability to make on-time delivery of appropriate quantities of product at a consistent level of quality;

ability to meet regulatory requirements;

intellectual property protection; and

brand and reputation, including the ability to market new offerings.
We believe we compete favorably with respect to these factors. In addition, as the ADAS and autonomous driving markets progress and, in some use cases, converge, we believe we will be in a favorable position to achieve meaningful business wins given our differentiated capabilities.
Distribution and Marketing
Our products are sold directly to customers throughout the world, or through distribution channels for our aftermarket products meant for vehicles that do not come pre-equipped with ADAS technology.
We actively promote our brand and technologies to increase awareness and generate demand through direct marketing as well as co-marketing programs. Our direct marketing to consumers and businesses primarily includes trade events, industry and consumer communications and press relations. We work closely with our existing customers in order to ensure that we are aware of their requirements and plans for future car models and can respond promptly and effectively.
We regularly present our technology to regulators and safety organizations to demonstrate its capabilities and reliability and to help ensure that they develop regulations and ratings that address the full range of benefits that we believe we can offer.
Research and Development
We believe our strong research and development is our principal competitive strength and has led to our position in the market. Our research and development activities are predominantly conducted in Israel. We have more than 80% of our full time-equivalent employees engaged in research and development, many of whom have been with the company for significant tenures. Our research and development efforts focus on algorithms, including visual processing, camera control, vehicle control, camera/radar fusion, autonomous driving sensing technologies, REM technology, driving policy and related engineering tasks as well as application software, silicon design and hardware electronics design. We believe we have a unique approach by developing ADAS and autonomous solutions simultaneously, giving us a technical and scale advantage over our competition.
Our Employees
As of April 2, 2022, we had approximately 3,000 employees operating across eight countries, with approximately 80% of such employees involved in research and development and approximately 2,800 of such employees operating in Israel. None of our employees is represented by a labor union with respect to his, her or their employment. In certain countries in which we operate, we are subject to, and comply with, local labor law requirements, which may automatically make our employees subject to industry-wide collective bargaining agreements. We have not experienced any work stoppages and we consider our relations with our employees to be good.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Intellectual Property
Our ability to compete effectively depends in part on our ability to develop and maintain the proprietary aspects of our technology. Our policy is to obtain appropriate proprietary rights protection for any potentially significant new technology acquired or developed by us. We hold 234 U.S. patents, 35 European patents, 173 U.S. patent applications, 363 European and other non-U.S. patent applications, and provisional patent filings.
In addition to patent laws, we rely on copyright and trade secret laws to protect our proprietary rights. We attempt to protect our trade secrets and other proprietary information through agreements with OEMs, distributors, other customers and suppliers, proprietary information agreements with our employees and consultants, and other similar measures. Our primary trademarks are for our name and product names. We cannot be certain that we will be successful in protecting our proprietary rights. While we believe our patents, patent applications, software and other proprietary know-how have value, changing technology makes our future success dependent principally upon our ability to successfully achieve continuing innovation.
Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our proprietary rights, to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others, or to defend us against claims of infringement or invalidity by others. An adverse outcome in such litigation or similar proceedings could subject us to significant liabilities to third parties, require disputed rights to be licensed from others or require us to cease marketing or using certain products, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, the cost of addressing any intellectual property litigation claim, both in legal fees and expenses, as well as from the diversion of management’s resources, regardless of whether the claim is valid, could be significant and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Property, Plant, and Equipment
We lease our principal offices at 13 Hartom Street, Jerusalem, Israel, totaling approximately 123,980 square feet, pursuant to a lease that expires in February 2024 and that may be extended, at our option, for an additional five-year term. We also lease office space in Tel Aviv and various other locations in Israel and around the world, including New York, Dusseldorf, Tokyo, and Shanghai, which include on Intel’s sites. We are currently making investments and are building a new campus in Jerusalem, Israel, which is expected to be completed in 2022. We have also signed a lease for additional new office space near Tel Aviv that we expect to begin utilizing in 2023 and are working to enter into additional leases for more office space in various locations around the world.
Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of conducting our business, we have in the past and may in the future become involved in various legal actions and other claims. We may also become involved in other judicial, regulatory and arbitration proceedings concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of our businesses. Some of these matters may involve claims of substantial amounts. In addition, from time to time, third parties may assert intellectual property infringement claims against us in the form of letters and other forms of communication. These legal proceedings may be subject to many uncertainties and there can be no assurance of the outcome of any individual proceedings. For example, on July 2, 2020, plaintiffs filed a complaint seeking monetary damages and class certification against our Israeli subsidiary in the District Court in Lod, Israel for an alleged defect in the display of one of our aftermarket products sold in Israel. Mobileye responded to the claim and the parties informed the court on January 3, 2022 that they have agreed to refer the suit to mediation. Additionally, on February 24, 2021, a plaintiff filed a complaint against Intel’s Italian subsidiary in the Court of Milan, Italy, Enterprises Section, alleging patent infringement relating to driver assistance systems. On May 19, 2021, Intel’s Italian subsidiary filed a statement of defense claiming that it is not the appropriate entity to be named as a defendant and that the plaintiff’s patent is invalid. The disputed technology is currently under review by a technical consultant appointed by the court, and we have not been named a defendant. As the likelihood of the ultimate outcome of these proceedings is not currently determinable, no amounts in respect of these matters have been accrued in our financial statements. We intend to vigorously defend each of these matters. We do not believe that these matters, and we are not a party to any other legal proceedings that we believe, if determined adversely to us, would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Board of Directors
In connection with and upon the completion of this offering, we will amend and restate our certificate of incorporation and bylaws. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that the number of directors on our board of directors shall be no less than five and established from time to time by our board of directors. Immediately after this offering, our board of directors will be composed of eight members, as set forth above. Mr. Gelsinger will serve as the chair of our board of directors. Each director will continue to serve until the election and qualification of his, her or their successor, or until the earliest of his, her or their death, resignation, or removal.
Controlled Company Exemption
We will be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of Nasdaq. As a result, we qualify for exemptions from, and have elected not to comply with, certain corporate governance requirements under the rules, including the requirements that within one year of the completion of this offering we have a board that is composed of a majority of “independent directors,” as defined under the rules, and a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee that are composed entirely of independent directors. Even though we are a controlled company, we are required to comply with the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq relating to the membership, qualifications, and operations of the audit committee, as discussed below.
The rules of Nasdaq define a “controlled company” as a company of which more than 50% of the voting power for the election of directors is held by an individual, a group or another company. Upon the completion of this offering, Intel will beneficially own all of the outstanding shares of our Class B common stock, representing approximately    % of the voting power of our common stock (or approximately    % if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock in full). Through its control of shares of common stock representing a majority of the votes entitled to be cast in

the election of directors, Intel will have the ability to control the vote to elect all of our directors. Accordingly, we will qualify as a “controlled company” under the listing requirements of Nasdaq and will be able to rely on the exemptions described above. If we cease to be a controlled company and our Class A common stock continues to be listed on Nasdaq, we will no longer be able to rely on such exemptions by the date our status as a controlled company changes or within specified transition periods applicable to certain provisions, as the case may be. For example, we will have one year from the date of our status change to comply with the requirement that our board of directors must be comprised of a majority of independent directors.
Director Independence
Our board of directors has undertaken a review of the independence of each director. Based on information provided by each director concerning his, her or their background, employment and affiliations, our board of directors has determined that each of Mr. Desheh, Senator McCaskill, Governor Huntsman, and Mr. Yeary does not have relationships that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each of these directors is “independent” as that term is defined under the listing standards of Nasdaq. In making the independence determinations with respect to our directors and director nominees, our board of directors considered the current and prior relationships that each director and director nominee has with our company and all other facts and circumstances our board of directors deemed relevant in determining their independence. For example, our board of directors considered that, between June 2021 and April 2022, Governor Huntsman served as the Vice Chair of Intel’s Government Affairs Advisory Committee, for which he received aggregate compensation of less than $120,000.
Committees of the Board of Directors
Upon the completion of this offering, we will establish the following committees of our board of directors.

EXECUTIVE AND DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
Introduction
This Compensation Discussion and Analysis section describes our compensation approach and programs for our named executive officers (“NEOs”), which include our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and our three other most highly compensated executive officers for the year ended December 25, 2021. Except as otherwise indicated, the information in this section relates to the compensation of our NEOs, and the principles underlying our executive compensation policies, in respect of fiscal year 2021. Our NEOs for the year ended December 25, 2021 were as follows:

Prof. Amnon Shashua, Chief Executive Officer;

Anat Heller, Chief Financial Officer;

Prof. Shai Shalev-Shwartz, Chief Technology Officer;

Dr. Gaby Hayon, Executive Vice President, Research & Development; and

Erez Dagan, Executive Vice President, Products & Strategy.
The following discussion relates to the compensation of our NEOs whose compensation is disclosed below in the “Summary Compensation Table,” as well as the overall principles underlying our executive compensation policies as we move toward becoming a public company.
Overview
The primary objective of our executive compensation program is to attract, motivate, and retain top talent and drive long-term value. We seek to achieve these objectives through our use of the following compensation initiatives:

provide competitive compensation opportunities in order to attract and retain talented, high performing and experienced executive officers, whose knowledge, skills and performance are critical to our success;

motivate our executive officers to achieve our business and financial objectives;

align the interests of our executive officers with those of our stockholders and our own corporate goals and objectives by tying a meaningful portion of compensation directly to the long-term value and growth of our business; and

conform compensation and governance with regular review of external market best practices.
As we transition from being a privately held company to a publicly traded company, we will continue to evaluate our philosophy and compensation program as circumstances require and we plan to continue reviewing compensation on an annual basis. As part of this review process, we expect to be guided by the philosophy and objectives outlined above, as well as other factors which may become relevant once we are a publicly traded company.
Principal Elements of Compensation
The compensation of our NEOs includes two primary elements: (i) base salary and (ii) equity compensation. Our model focuses on equity compensation as the key element of total compensation. A meaningful portion of executive pay is tied directly to stockholder outcomes and value creation through annual RSU grants. We believe awarding RSUs provides a simple, straightforward approach to tying executives’ compensation to our successful business outcomes. As such, annual cash bonuses, perquisites, personal benefits and other compensation elements are not significant elements of the Company’s current compensation program.
Base Salaries.   Base salary is provided as a fixed source of compensation for our executive officers, including our NEOs. Adjustments to base salaries are expected to be determined annually and base salaries
 
129

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
may be increased based on the executive officer’s performance, as well as to maintain market competitiveness. Additionally, base salaries can be adjusted as warranted throughout the year to reflect promotions or other changes in the scope of breadth of an executive officer’s role or responsibilities.
Other Cash Compensation.   We do not currently provide our NEOs with annual cash incentives or other regular cash bonuses or sales commissions.
Equity Compensation.   Equity based compensation is provided to our NEOs to align their interests with those of our stockholders and is a significant component of our compensation program. Annual equity awards are generally made through time- and on occasion, performance-based restricted stock units, providing long-term incentives differentiated based on talent assessment, level of contribution and performance. The key features of our equity compensation program are described below under “— Equity-Based Compensation Prior to the Offering.” We adopted a new equity incentive plan in connection with the Offering, as described below under “— Equity-Based Compensation Following the Offering.”
Determination of Compensation
In fiscal year 2021 and generally in prior years, the appropriate levels of annual salary and equity compensation for our NEOs (other than our CEO) were determined by our CEO, who provided his determinations to Intel’s human resources department, which communicated such determinations for consideration and final approval by the compensation committee of Intel’s board of directors. Such determinations took into account each NEO’s experience and roles as well the compensation practices of similar companies in our industry. Our CEO’s compensation has generally been determined by the compensation committee of Intel’s board of directors upon recommendations from Intel’s human resources department.
Following our transition to being a publicly traded company, our compensation committee will be responsible for, or will assist our board of directors, in fulfilling its governance and supervisory responsibilities, and overseeing our human resources, succession planning, and compensation policies, processes and practices. Our compensation committee will also be responsible for ensuring that our compensation policies and practices appropriately balance of risk and reward consistent with our risk profile and do not encourage excessive risk-taking behavior by our executive officers, including our NEOs.
Upon the closing of this offering, our board of directors will adopt a written charter for the compensation committee, setting out its responsibilities for administering our compensation programs and, as applicable, reviewing and making recommendations to our board of directors concerning the level and nature of the compensation payable to our directors and officers. The compensation committee’s oversight will include reviewing compensation objectives, evaluating performance, and ensuring that total compensation paid to executive officers, including our NEOs, is reasonable, and consistent with the objectives and philosophy of our compensation program.
Compensation Risk
In connection with this offering, management conducted a risk assessment of our compensation plans and practices and concluded that our compensation programs do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the company. The objective of the assessment was to identify any compensation plans or practices that may encourage employees to take unnecessary risk that could threaten the company. No such plans or practices were identified. Our board of directors has reviewed and agrees with management’s conclusion.
Base Salaries
Generally, initial salaries of our NEOs were established through arm’s length negotiation at the time the individual executive officer was hired. Following the determination of initial salaries, over the years we have been conducting annual reviews of each NEO’s base salary and have adjusted as necessary to reflect individual contributions and responsibilities and to maintain market competitiveness.
In fiscal year 2021, our NEOs received the following base salaries in accordance with the policies described above:

The salary figures include an amount reflecting global overtime and a high-tech addition, which is a fixed salary component for each NEO, as applicable. Such component was cancelled in March 2022, to all of the Company's employees, and the component amount was divided between the base salary and global overtime component.

Prof. Shashua’s monthly salary was increased in August 2020 to $21,951.41 in order to align his salary with the salaries of the Company's executive vice presidents. The amounts in the table represent the adjusted salary and percentage increase to reflect the mid-year salary increase.
(3)
The difference between Mr. Dagan’s 2020 salary and his 2021 salary is the result of unpaid absence days taken in 2021 rather than a determination of a smaller base salary.
Other Compensation — Retirement and Welfare Benefits
Our executives generally receive benefits required under Israeli law or that are customary for senior executives in Israel, such as reimbursement of expenses, paid vacation days, sick leave, pension and/or a manager’s insurance policy and Advanced Study Fund. The retirement and welfare benefit programs are a necessary element of the total compensation package to ensure a competitive position in attracting and retaining a committed workforce. Participation in these programs is not tied to performance.

Pension and Severance Benefits.   In Israel, we generally provide our executives, including our NEOs, with severance, pension, disability and Advanced Study Fund benefits in line with both Israeli law and customary compensation practices among technology companies. Israeli law generally requires Israeli employers to pay severance benefits upon (i) the retirement or death of an employee; (ii) termination of employment by the employer (except in circumstances that permit the employer to terminate the employment of the employee without paying severance amounts); or (iii) in certain circumstances, termination of employment by the employee. In accordance with Israeli law, the severance benefit is equal to one month’s salary (at the most recent salary prior to termination) for each full year of employment and a pro rata portion of one month’s salary for each portion of a year of employment following the first full year of employment. For pension and severance purposes the Company generally contributes a monthly amount equal to 14.83% of the employee’s salary toward manager insurance/pension funds. For pension purposes, we contribute 6.5% of the employee’s salary and the employee contributes 6% of their salary. For severance compensation purposes, we generally contribute a monthly amount equal to 8.33% of the employee’s salary. If the employee is eligible to receive severance, as described above, and the contributions to the applicable funds are not sufficient to cover such severance entitlement, the Company will supplement the severance payments to ensure compliance with legal requirements.

Health and Welfare Plans.   Generally, benefits available to our Israel-based employees are available to all employees on the same basis, which include welfare benefits, annual vacation leave, sick leave, convalescence pay, transportation expense reimbursement, Advanced Study Fund, life and disability insurance and other customary or mandatory social benefits in Israel. Furthermore, Israeli employees and employers are required to pay predetermined sums to the National Insurance Institute of Israel. These amounts also include payments for national health insurance. The payments to the National Insurance Institute amount to approximately 19.6% of wages (up to monthly wages of approx. NIS 45,075, approximately $14,314), of which the employee contributes approximately 7% toward natural insurance and 5% toward national health insurance and the employer contributes approximately 7.6% toward national insurance.

Executive Benefits and Perquisites

Lease of Automobiles.   As is customary in Israel, we lease automobiles for certain of our NEOs, including for Anat Heller and Shai Shalev-Shwartz. The lease amount and the applicable taxes are deducted from Ms. Heller’s salary on a monthly basis (NIS 4,900, approximately $1,556, per month). Prof. Shwartz’s automobile lease is paid for by the Company and Prof. Shwartz pays for the taxes incurred in connection with this benefit.
Equity-Based Compensation
Equity-Based Compensation Prior to the Offering
Until the date of this offering, executive officers of the Company have been incentivized and rewarded through the grant of Intel equity awards under the Intel Corporation 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Intel Plan”). Equity awards were granted under the Intel Plan to our executive officers, including our NEOs, based upon the recommendation of our CEO and subject to the approval of the compensation committee of Intel’s board of directors. The CEO recommends the grant of equity awards based on the value and contributions of each executive to the Company as well as market conditions and the equity compensation of high technology talent in Israel. Our CEO’s compensation has generally been determined by the compensation committee of Intel’s board of directors upon recommendations from Intel’s human resources department.
In prior years, including in fiscal year 2021, the key component of our equity-based compensation program has been the grant of restricted stock units. All outstanding equity awards awarded under the Intel Plan that were granted prior to the offering will continue to vest and remain outstanding under the Intel Plan following the offering. Equity awards outstanding as of December 25, 2021 are set forth in the “Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End Table” below. It is anticipated that new equity awards in the form of restricted stock units, or other forms of awards that may be approved by our compensation committee from time to time following the offering, will be granted pursuant to the Company’s 2022 Equity Incentive Plan, as described in further detail below.
In fiscal year 2021, our NEOs received the following equity award grants in accordance with the process and policies described above:

Restricted Stock Unit Awards
Restricted stock units have been granted under the Intel Plan to our executive officers annually, typically in October. Our CEO evaluates the awards to be granted to the management team, including our NEOs, and recommends such awards to Intel’s human resources department, who then seeks the approval of Intel’s compensation committee. The CEO evaluates performance as well as prior year targets when making recommendations. The restricted stock unit awards typically vest annually over a three-year period, subject to continued employment with the Company. In October 2021, the compensation committee of Intel’s board of directors approved grants of restricted stock units to our executive officers as set forth in the “Summary Compensation Table” and “Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table in the Fiscal Year Ended December 25, 2021,” below.
Option Awards
In 2017, when Mobileye was acquired by Intel, certain option awards held by then-current executives were converted into Intel option awards (the “2017 Options”). As of 2021 fiscal year end, all 2017 Options
 
132

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
that were granted to our NEOs are fully vested. The option awards exercised in fiscal year 2021 are set forth in the “Option Exercises and Stock Vested Table” below. The 2017 Options that remain outstanding are reflected in the “Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End Table” below. Since Mobileye was acquired by Intel in 2017, executives have been granted only time-based restricted stock units, except for the performance-based awards granted to Erez Dagan, as summarized below.
Performance Awards
Performance awards may be granted to our NEOs on occasion. When granted, they are intended to align interests of executives with those of stockholders through the use of measures the Company believes drives its long-term success. The compensation committee of Intel’s board of directors granted a performance-based equity award to our NEO, Erez Dagan, who is currently the only NEO who holds a performance-based equity award, as further described below. We may also consider performance based equity to our CEO from time to time.
The performance-based equity awards granted to Mr. Dagan are reflected in the “Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End Table” below. In fiscal year 2021, we did not grant any performance-based awards to our NEOs.
Equity-Based Compensation Following the Offering
Following the offering, we will establish a compensation committee that will be responsible for making recommendations for equity awards to be granted to our executive officers. In connection with the offering, the Company has adopted the Mobileye Holdings Inc. 2022 Equity Incentive Plan, which will be renamed and approved as the Mobileye Global Inc. 2022 Equity Incentive Plan prior to the offering (the “2022 Plan”), which was adopted by our board of directors on January 30, 2022 and approved by our stockholders on        , 2022. The 2022 Plan will allow the compensation committee to make equity-based incentive awards to our employees, consultants and outside directors.
Authorized Shares.   The maximum number of shares that may be issued under the 2022 Plan will be               shares, subject to adjustment upon certain changes in the Company’s capitalization. The shares issued under the 2022 Plan may be authorized and unissued shares, or reacquired common stock, including shares purchased by the Company on the open market for purposes of the plan.
The share reserve under the 2022 Plan will be subject to adjustment in the event of a stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, extraordinary dividend of cash and/or assets, recapitalization, reorganization or any similar equity restructuring transacting affecting shares. Any shares subject to an award which for any reason expires or terminates unexercised or is not earned in full may again be made subject to an award under the plan; however, the following shares may not again be made available for issuance as awards under the plan: (i) shares not issued or delivered as a result of the net settlement of an outstanding stock appreciation right, (ii) shares used to pay the exercise price or withholding taxes related to an outstanding award, or (iii) shares repurchased on the open market, if applicable, with the proceeds of the option exercise price. The maximum number of shares that may be issued as incentive stock options under the 2022 Plan may not exceed         shares.
Administration.   The 2022 Plan will be administered by our compensation committee. Our compensation committee will have full power to take the following actions, subject to the provisions of the 2022 Plan:

to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the 2022 Plan, including the forms of award agreement and manner of acceptance of an award, and to take or approve such further actions as it determines necessary or appropriate to the administration of the 2022 Plan and awards;

to determine which persons are eligible to receive awards and to grant awards to such persons;

to establish or vary the extent of satisfaction of any performance goals or other conditions applicable to the grant, issuance, exercisability, vesting and/or ability to retain any award;
 
133

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 

to prescribe and amend the terms of the agreements or other documents evidencing awards made under the plan;

to determine whether, and the extent to which, adjustments are required;

to cancel any award, without consideration, and without requirement of the consent of the participant;

to interpret and construe the plan and any rules and regulations under the 2022 Plan and award granted thereunder; and

to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of the 2022 Plan.
Eligibility.   Persons eligible to participate in the 2022 Plan will be those employees, outside directors and consultants, as selected from time to time by our compensation committee in its discretion.
Options.   The 2022 Plan permits the granting of both options to purchase common stock intended to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code and options that do not so qualify. The option exercise price of each option will be determined by our compensation committee but may not, generally, be less than 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. The term of each option will be fixed by our compensation committee and may not exceed 10 years from the date of grant. Our compensation committee will determine at what time or times each option may be exercised.
Stock Appreciation Rights.   Our compensation committee will be able to award stock appreciation rights subject to such conditions and restrictions as it may determine.

Employment and Other Agreements
We have entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Shashua, Shwartz, Hayon and Dagan and Ms. Heller, which are summarized below. Each agreement is governed by Israeli law and provides for customary non-competition and non-solicitation provisions during the term of the agreements and for twelve months after termination of their employment for any reason (except for Prof. Shashua whose non-competition and non-solicitation provisions continue for eighteen months).
Prof. Shashua
Prof. Shashua is the founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and has been with the Company since 1999. On July 24, 2014, we entered into an amended employment agreement with Prof. Shashua. The employment agreement provides for Prof. Shashua’s employment through a term of at least five years, and sets forth his annual salary, eligibility to receive grants of option awards, vacation leave (24 days), sick leave, reimbursement for reasonable travel and other business expenses, and eligibility to participate in benefit plans generally. Prof. Shashua’s employment agreement also ensures certain payments under an accepted manager’s insurance scheme or pension fund in the following amounts: (i) 8.33% of his salary for severance, (ii) 6.5% of his salary for pension (Prof. Shashua also contributes 6% of his salary toward such fund) and (iii) up to 2.5% of his salary towards disability insurance. The Company also maintains an Advanced Study Fund, under which the Company contributes an amount equal to 7.5% of his gross salary (representing 80% of the sum of salary, travel expense and convalesce) on a monthly basis, and Prof. Shashua contributes 2.5% of his gross salary on a monthly basis. If Prof. Shashua’s employment is terminated for reasons other than for “cause” ​(as defined in his employment agreement), or he resigns from the Company by “deemed dismissal” ​(as defined in his employment agreement) then he is entitled to receive, in addition to any severance payments, his base salary and all other benefits and entitlements under his employment agreement and any other agreement, for two months following the date of his termination. In addition, all unvested option awards and restricted stock unit awards will immediately vest. If Prof. Shashua’s employment is terminated for reasons other than for “cause” or he resigns from the Company by “deemed dismissal” in connection with a “change in control” ​(as defined in his employment agreement), he is entitled to receive such benefits and entitlements for a period of twelve months.
Prof. Shwartz
On August 2, 2010, we entered into an employment agreement with Prof. Shai Shalev-Shwartz, our Chief Technology Officer. The employment agreement sets forth his annual salary, global overtime, high-tech addition, which is a fixed salary component (as described in footnote 1 to the table under “Base Salaries” above), vacation leave (21 days), sick leave, reimbursement for travel expenses, and monthly convalescence pay. The Company also contributes the following amounts towards an accepted manager’s insurance policy (Bituach Menahalim): a sum equal to 8.33% of his “Contribution Salary” ​(as such term is defined below) for severance purposes, 6.5% of his “Contribution Salary” and for pension purposes (Prof. Shwartz also contributes 6% of his “Contribution Salary” toward such fund). “Contribution Salary” for purposes of his agreement means an amount approximately equal to the national average salary.
The Company and Prof. Shwartz may terminate his employment agreement for any reason by providing thirty days’ prior written notice or pay in lieu of notice. Prof. Shwartz is entitled to the transfer of the funds in his severance fund, only if his termination would entitle him to severance under the Severance Pay Law 5723-1963.

For our NEOs other than Prof. Shashua (whose notice is as set forth above), if their employment agreement is terminated for any reason, they are entitled to thirty days’ prior written notice or pay in lieu of notice. Additionally, each NEO would be entitled to the transfer of the funds in their severance fund and potentially an additional amount if the specific termination would entitle the executive to severance under the Severance Pay Law 5723-1963 (“Severance Pay Law”). If the employment of Ms. Heller and Messrs. Shalev-Shwartz, Hayon or Dagan had terminated on December 25, 2021, under circumstances that entitle them to severance under the Severance Pay Law, they would have received a payout for severance in the amount of $71,431, $470,549, $186,712 and $104,987, respectively, which amounts do not include those amounts that would be transferred to such NEO from the NEO’s severance and other funds.
Director Compensation
In connection with the offering, we expect to implement a director compensation program, which will be designed to attract and retain the most qualified individuals to serve on our board of directors. We expect our board of directors, through our compensation committee, to be responsible for reviewing and approving any changes to directors’ compensation arrangements. We expect that our outside directors will be compensated with RSUs in the Company on an annual basis, or a combination of cash and RSUs in the Company on an annual basis, in either case, consistent with market practice. Our directors will also be reimbursed for their reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with their roles as directors. In addition, we do not expect that directors will be entitled to receive compensation for services rendered to us in any other capacity. Directors who are employees of Mobileye and who receive a salary from us as our employees or receive a salary from one of our subsidiaries as their employees, will not be entitled to receive any additional compensation for their services in acting as directors, but would be entitled to reimbursement of their reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred in acting as directors.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In addition to the director, director nominee and executive officer compensation arrangements discussed above in the section entitled “Executive and Director Compensation,” this section describes transactions, or series of related transactions, during our last three fiscal years or as currently proposed, to which we were a party or will be a party, in which:

the amount involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000; and

any of our directors, director nominees, executive officers, or beneficial owners of more than 5% of any class of our capital stock, or any members of the immediate family of and any entity affiliated with any such person, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
Historical Related Party Transactions
Prior to this offering, we have operated as part of Intel’s broader corporate organization rather than as a stand-alone public company. Intel has performed or supported various corporate services for us, and we have engaged in various transactions with Intel. The previous arrangements we had with Intel and/or other related persons are described below.
Equity Conversion Arrangements for Purposes of Funding Acquisitions
For purposes of its acquisition of Mobileye, Intel entered into a loan agreement in 2017 to make available to us up to an aggregate principal amount of $20 billion (the “2017 Loan”). The principal amount of the 2017 Loan was denominated in U.S. dollars and the interest rate was based on the short term quarterly Applicable Federal Rate published by the Internal Revenue Service.
In 2019, the outstanding principal balance of $15.3 billion on the 2017 Loan was converted to equity as a contribution by Intel to us, thereby canceling the principal. In 2020, $679 million of accrued interest was converted to equity as a contribution by Intel to us.
There was no outstanding principal or interest balance as of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020. Interest expense recognized by us totaled $0 million, $1 million, and $257 million for the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019, respectively.
Loan Arrangements
We entered into a series of bilateral lending/borrowing arrangements with Intel. The purposes of the facilities are to enable bilateral cash movements between the parties. The arrangements are denominated in U.S dollars. Interest rates unless otherwise specified are based on three-month LIBOR rate.
In 2017, we and Intel entered into a bilateral lending/borrowing arrangement (“Arrangement 1”) to make available to either party up to an aggregate principal amount of $1.5 billion. Arrangement 1 has a mechanism of automatic renewal for additional periods of one year each. In 2021, Arrangement 1 was amended to increase the capacity from $1.5 billion to $1.8 billion, and the maturity date was extended to December 2022.
In 2017, we and Intel entered into a bilateral lending/borrowing arrangement (“Arrangement 2”) to make cash available to either party up to an aggregate principal amount of $750 million. Arrangement 2 matures September 2022 with a mechanism of automatic renewal of Arrangement 1 for additional periods of one year each.
In 2021, we and Intel entered into a bilateral lending/borrowing arrangement (“Arrangement 3”) to make cash available to either party up to an aggregate principal amount of $100 million. Arrangement 3 has a maturity date of July 2022 with the option to extend Arrangement 3 for an additional period of one year. The interest rate is based on an applicable margin of 0.0% with an option for Intel to elect to increase or decrease the applicable margin on or after the first day of the 2022 fiscal year. If Intel elects to increase the applicable margin, the spread adjustment would be reflective of the difference between three-month LIBOR and the term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). In March 2022, Arrangement 2 and Arrangement 3 were amended to increase the aggregate principal amount available to draw from $750 million

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
to $1 billion and from $100 million to $500 million, respectively. In addition, due to reference rate reform, Arrangement 1 and Arrangement 2 were amended to change the interest rate from LIBOR to SOFR based.
The total outstanding balance of the aforementioned loan arrangements is approximately $1.1 billion and $1.3 billion as of April 2, 2022 and December 25, 2021, respectively. Interest income recognized by us totaled $1.2 million and $0.8 million for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and March 27, 2021, respectively. We expect that the balances of these loans will be paid off and these arrangements will be terminated prior to the completion of this offering.
Dividend Note
In connection with the Reorganization, on April 21, 2022, we distributed to Intel the Dividend Note, a promissory note agreeing to pay Intel an aggregate principal amount of $3.5 billion. The Dividend Note is scheduled to mature on April 21, 2025 and accrues interest at a rate equal to 1.26% per annum, such interest to accrue quarterly. Prior to June 30, 2024, such interest will be paid by being automatically added to the outstanding principal amount of the loan and will thereafter be payable quarterly in cash in arrears and shall also be payable upon any prepayment, whether in whole or in part, to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid, and upon maturity. Under the Dividend Note, we have the right, at our option, on any business day, to prepay the loan, including principal and any accrued interest thereon, in whole or in part without premium or penalty. We intend to use a portion of the net proceeds that we receive from this offering to repay indebtedness under the Dividend Note. See “Use of Proceeds.”
Dividend
In connection with the Reorganization, on May 12, 2022, we declared and paid the Dividend in an aggregate amount of $336 million to Intel, net of $14 million of cash paid to tax authorities to settle related tax obligations.
Stock Compensation Recharge Agreement
We entered into a stock compensation recharge agreement with Intel, which requires us to reimburse Intel for certain amounts relating to the value of share-based compensation provided to our employees for RSUs or stock options exercisable in Intel stock. The reimbursement amounts were $162 million, $78 million and $75 million for 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The reimbursement amount was $30 million for the three months ended April 2, 2022.
Hedging Services
We entered into a hedging services agreement with Intel, according to which we are entitled to a certain allocation of the gains and losses arising from the execution of the hedging contracts. The cost associated with these services were immaterial.
Development Services and Lease
We have historically relied on Intel to provide certain development services, including research, technical work on technology, products and solutions, construction and ancillary administrative services and use of space in Intel’s building in Israel. The Company paid for these services on a quarterly basis. These costs are included as part of our combined statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) primarily on a specific and direct attribution basis, as described in Note 2 of our combined financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus.
Travel Related Expenses
We have reimbursed our Chief Executive Officer for reasonable travel related expenses incurred while conducting business on behalf of our company. For 2021, 2020 and 2019, travel related reimbursements were $1.1 million, $0.5 million and $1.2 million, respectively. There were no travel related reimbursements for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and March 27,2021.

Transactions to be Entered into in Connection with this Offering
Transfers of Assets
In connection with the Reorganization and prior to the completion of this offering, we plan to enter into local asset transfer agreements with Intel for the legal transfer to us of certain assets aligned with our business for an aggregate of approximately $            as well as certain employees aligned with our business, in each case, along with certain liabilities, and, on May 31, 2022, we entered into an agreement with Intel pursuant to which, on such date, we legally purchased from Intel 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of the Moovit entities for an aggregate amount of approximately $900 million through the settlement of an intercompany loan.
Intercompany Agreements
Prior to the completion of this offering, we intend to enter into the following Intercompany Agreements with Intel that will provide a framework for our ongoing relationship with Intel.
Master Transaction Agreement
The Master Transaction Agreement, which will become effective as of the completion of this offering, contains key provisions relating to our ongoing relationship with Intel. The Master Transaction Agreement also contains agreements relating to the conduct of this offering and future transactions, and will govern the relationship between Intel and us subsequent to this offering. Unless otherwise required by the specific provisions of the Master Transaction Agreement, the Master Transaction Agreement will terminate on a date that is five years after the first date upon which Intel ceases to own at least 20% of the then outstanding number of shares of our common stock. The provisions of the Master Transaction Agreement related to our cooperation with Intel in connection with future litigation will survive seven years after the termination of the agreement, and provisions related to indemnification by us and Intel and certain other provisions will survive indefinitely. The following sets forth the key terms of the Master Transaction Agreement.
This Offering.    We will use our reasonable commercial efforts to satisfy certain conditions to the completion of this offering, which conditions include, among others, that (i) this registration statement shall have been declared effective by the SEC, and there shall be no stop order in effect with respect thereto, (ii) actions and filings with regard to applicable securities and blue sky laws of any state (and any comparable laws under any foreign jurisdictions) shall have been taken and, where applicable, have become effective or been accepted, (iii) our Class A common stock to be issued in this offering shall have been accepted for listing on the Nasdaq, subject only to official notice of issuance, (iv) we shall have entered into the underwriting agreement for this offering and all conditions to the obligations of Mobileye and the underwriters shall have been satisfied or waived by the party that is entitled to the benefit thereof, (v) Intel shall be satisfied, in its sole discretion, that it will have an ownership percentage of at least 80.1% immediately following the consummation of this offering, and we will have no class of our capital stock other than the Class A and Class B common stock outstanding, immediately following this offering, and (vi) no order, injunction or decree issued by any court or agency of competent jurisdiction or other legal restraint or prohibition preventing the consummation of this offering or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Master Transaction Agreement or any Intercompany Agreement shall be in effect. Intel may, in its sole and absolute discretion, choose to proceed with or abandon this offering. All costs and expenses of Mobileye and Intel relating to this offering will be paid by us.
Registration Rights.   We will provide Intel, after the date that is 180 days after the closing of this offering or such earlier date as provided in the Master Transaction Agreement, with certain registration rights to register our common stock, because the shares of our common stock held by Intel after this offering will be deemed “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Accordingly, Intel may only sell a limited number of shares of our common stock into the public markets without registration under the Securities Act. At the request of Intel, we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to register shares of our common stock that are held by Intel after the closing of this offering, or subsequently acquired, for public sale under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 or any similar long form registration statement (a“Long-Form Registration”) or on a registration statement on Form S-3 or any similar short form registration statement at such time Mobileye qualifies to use such short from

registration statement (a “Short-Form Registration”). Intel may initially request up to two Long-Form Registrations in any calendar year and three Short-Form Registrations, though no Long-Form Registrations may be requested in any calendar year after such time as we are eligible to use Form S-3. Intel may also request that we file a resale shelf registration statement to register the resale under the Securities Act of its registrable securities after such time as we are eligible to use Form S-3. Intel will be entitled to three underwritten shelf takedowns per calendar year and each such underwritten shelf takedown will be deemed a demand registration for purposes of the limit on Short-Form Registrations. We will also provide Intel with “piggy-back” rights to include its shares in future registrations by us or others of our securities under the Securities Act. There is no limit on the number of these “piggy-back” registrations in which Intel may request its shares be included. Intel’s registration rights will remain in effect until the earlier of the date on which the shares of our common stock held by Intel (i) have been disposed of in accordance with an effective registration statement, (ii) have been distributed to the public in accordance with Rule 144 or may be sold without restriction pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act, (iii) have been otherwise transferred to a non-affiliated entity and any subsequent disposition of them do not require registration or qualification under the Securities Act, or (iv) have ceased to be outstanding. We have agreed to cooperate in these registrations and related offerings. All expenses payable in connection with such registrations will be paid by us, except that Intel will pay all its own internal administrative and its own legal and similar costs and underwriting discounts and commissions applicable to the sale of its shares of our common stock.
Future Distributions.    We will cooperate with Intel to accomplish a distribution by Intel of our common stock to Intel stockholders which is intended to qualify as a distribution under Section 355 of the Code, or any corresponding provision of any successor statute, and we have agreed to promptly take any and all actions reasonably necessary or desirable to effect any such distribution. Intel will determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, whether to proceed with all or part of the distribution, the date of the distribution and the form, structure and all other terms of any transaction to effect the distribution. A distribution may not occur at all. At any time prior to completion of the distribution, Intel may decide to abandon the distribution, or may modify or change the terms of the distribution, which could have the effect of accelerating or delaying the timing of the distribution.
Most Favored Status.    So long as Intel holds at least 20% of our common stock, we will sell Intel our commercially available products, including EyeQ® SoCs, for internal use, but not for resale on a standalone or bundled basis. We and Intel agree to hold the other in most favored status with respect to products purchased or sold for internal use, meaning that the product prices, terms, warranties and benefits provided between us and Intel shall be comparable to or better than the equivalent terms being offered by the party providing the products to any single, present customer of such party.
Anti-Dilution Option.    We will grant Intel a continuing right to purchase from us shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock as is necessary for Intel to maintain an aggregate ownership interest of our common stock representing at least 80.1% of our common stock outstanding following the completion of this offering. This option may be exercised by Intel in connection with any issuance by us of common stock other than pursuant to this offering (including the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares in this offering) or any stock option or executive or employee compensation plan, except where the issuance pursuant to a stock option or executive or employee compensation plan would cause Intel’s percentage ownership of common stock to fall below 80.1%. If we issue our common stock for cash consideration as permitted in the foregoing sentence other than pursuant to a stock option or executive compensation plan that causes Intel’s percentage ownership of common stock to fall below 80.1%, upon the exercise of the option, Intel will pay a price per share of Class A common stock equal to the offering price paid by us in the related issuance of common stock and a price per share of Class B common stock equal to the fair market value thereof as determined in good faith by our board of directors. If we issue our common stock for non-cash consideration or pursuant to a stock option or executive compensation plan that causes Intel’s percentage ownership of common stock to fall below 80.1%, upon exercise of the option, Intel will pay a price per share of Class A common stock equal to the closing price of our common stock as quoted on the Nasdaq on the date for which a determination is being made and a price per share of Class B common stock equal to the fair market value thereof as determined in good faith by our board of directors. Intel’s option to maintain its ownership percentage in us will terminate on the earlier of the date of a distribution under Section 355 of the Code, or any corresponding provision of any successor statute, the date upon which Intel beneficially owns shares of common stock representing less than 80% in aggregate

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
ownership interest in our common stock, and the date on which, if the option has been transferred to a subsidiary of Intel, that subsidiary ceases to be a subsidiary of Intel.
Indemnification.    We and Intel will have cross-indemnities that generally place the financial responsibility on us and our subsidiaries for all liabilities associated with the current and historical Mobileye business and operations, and generally will place on Intel the financial responsibility for liabilities associated with all of Intel’s other current and historical businesses and operations, in each case regardless of the time those liabilities arise. We and Intel will also each indemnify the other with respect to breaches of the Master Transaction Agreement or any Intercompany Agreement. In addition, we will indemnify Intel against liabilities arising from misstatements or omissions of material fact in this prospectus or the registration statement of which it is a part, except for misstatements or omissions of material fact relating to information that Intel provided to us specifically for inclusion in this prospectus or the registration statement of which it forms a part. We will also indemnify Intel against liabilities arising from any misstatements or omissions of material fact in our subsequent SEC filings and from information we provide to Intel specifically for inclusion in Intel’s annual or quarterly reports following the completion of this offering, but only to the extent that the information pertains to us or our business or to the extent Intel provides us prior written notice that the information will be included in its annual or quarterly reports and the liability does not result from the action or inaction of Intel. In addition, Intel will indemnify us for liabilities arising from misstatements or omissions of material fact with respect to information that Intel provided to us specifically for inclusion in this prospectus or the registration statement of which it forms a part, to the extent that such information pertains to Intel or Intel’s business. Intel will also indemnify us against liabilities arising from information Intel provides to us specifically for inclusion in our annual or quarterly reports following the completion of this offering, but only to the extent that the information pertains to Intel or Intel’s business or to the extent we provide Intel prior written notice that the information will be included in our annual or quarterly reports and the liability does not result from our action or inaction. Further, Intel will indemnify us against any liabilities relating to payments of consideration to former equityholders of Mobileye N.V. under Intel’s 2017 agreement to purchase Mobileye.
Release.   For liabilities arising from events occurring on or before the time of this offering, the Master Transaction Agreement contains a general release. Under this provision, we will release Intel and its subsidiaries, successors and assigns, and Intel will release us and our subsidiaries, successors and assigns, from any liabilities arising from past events between us on the one hand, and Intel on the other hand, occurring on or before the time of this offering, including in connection with the activities to implement this offering. The general release does not apply to liabilities allocated between the parties under the Master Transaction Agreement or other Intercompany Agreements or to specified ongoing contractual arrangements.
Accounting Matters.   For so long as Intel provides us with accounting and financial services under the Administrative Services Agreement, and to the extent necessary for purpose of preparing financial statements or completing a financial statement audit, we will provide Intel as much prior notice as reasonably practical of any change in the independent certified public accountants to be used by us or our subsidiaries for providing an opinion on our consolidated financial statements. We will also use our commercially reasonable efforts to enable our auditors to complete a sufficient portion of our audit and provide Intel with all financial and other information on a timely basis such that Intel may meet its deadlines for its filing annual and quarterly financial statements.
Legal Policies.   Until the later of Intel ceasing to be a “controlling person” of us as defined in the Securities Act and such date that Intel ceases to provide us with legal, financial or accounting services under the Administrative Services Agreement, we will comply with all Intel rules, policies and directives identified by Intel as critical to legal and regulatory compliance, to the extent such rules, policies and directives have been previously communicated to us, and will not adopt legal or regulatory policies or directives inconsistent with the policies identified by Intel as critical to legal and regulatory compliance.
Non-Solicitation:    For a period of two years following the closing of this offering, we and Intel will not, directly or indirectly, solicit active employees of the other without prior consent by the other, provided we both have agreed to give such consent if either party believes, in good faith, that consent is necessary to avoid the resignation of an employee from one party that the other party would wish to employ.

Remaining Intel Awards:    All outstanding options to purchase shares of Intel and all other Intel equity awards held by Mobileye Group employees at the time of the initial public offering will continue to be outstanding until the earlier of (i) the date the award is exchanged pursuant to any issuer exchange offer undertaken by us and Intel, (ii) the date the award is exercised or expires under the terms of the applicable award agreement or (iii) the date such award is canceled as a result of a Mobileye Group employee being terminated or, if later, the end of any post-termination exercise period specified in the award agreement or by the applicable equity plans’ administrative committees.
Minimum Cash Requirement:    Immediately after completion of this offering and on a pro forma basis after all expenses of this offering have been paid (and after giving effect to any repayment of any indebtedness by us to Intel and any other transactions contemplated to occur substantially concurrently with this offering), Intel agrees to ensure that we will have $      in cash, cash equivalents, or marketable securities.
Notifiable Transactions:   Intel will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide three months’ advance notice to our board of directors in the event that Intel intends to pursue a transaction (even if no such transaction is imminent or probable at such time) which is reasonably expected to cause Intel's ownership in us to fall below 50% of our total issued and outstanding shares of common stock.
Administrative Services Agreement
Under the Administrative Services Agreement, which will become effective as of the completion of this offering, Intel will provide us with services, including administrative, financial, legal, tax, and other services. Intel will provide such services to us with substantially the same degree of skill and care as such services have been provided to us during the twelve months prior to the date of this offering. We will pay fees to Intel for the services rendered based on pricing per service agreed between us and Intel.
The initial term of the Administrative Services Agreement will expire two years from the effective date of the agreement and will be extended automatically for successive three-month terms unless one of the parties elects not to renew. Prior to the expiration of the initial term and any subsequent renewal term, we will agree with Intel to adjust the level of service under the agreement, as necessary, to accurately reflect the future level of services we require. We have the right to terminate any of the services provided by Intel under the Administrative Services Agreement at any time upon thirty days’ prior written notice of termination to Intel, or if Intel fails to perform any of its material obligations under the Administrative Services Agreement and such failure continues for at least thirty days after receipt by Intel of written notice of such failure from Mobileye.
Furthermore, we will be responsible for any damages, and will indemnify Intel for all reasonable expenses, in connection with actions or inactions reasonably required to be performed, or directed by us to be performed, in connection with the services rendered or to be rendered under the Administrative Services Agreement, except to the extent that such losses are caused by the breach of the Administrative Services Agreement, gross negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct of Intel. Intel will be responsible for any damages, and will indemnify us for all reasonable expenses, in connection with the breach of the Administrative Services Agreement, gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of Intel in connection with the services rendered or to be rendered under the Administrative Services Agreement, except to the extent that such losses are caused by our breach of the Administrative Services Agreement, gross negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct.
Employee Matters Agreement
The Employee Matters Agreement, which will become effective as of the completion of this offering, will allocate assets, liabilities and responsibilities relating to employees, employment matters, compensation and benefit plans and other related matters. The Employee Matters Agreement generally provides that Mobileye will assume certain employment-related liabilities with respect to Mobileye and certain former Intel employees for periods of time prior to and after the date the employee becomes employed by a Mobileye entity, or, for other certain former Intel employees, with respect to liabilities arising after the date such employees become employees of a Mobileye entity from an Intel entity, provided that Intel will generally retain liabilities under its employee benefit plans.

Technology and Services Agreement
In connection with this offering, we intend to enter into a Technology and Services Agreement with Intel, pursuant to which we and Intel will collaborate to develop certain technologies, including relating to radar and LiDAR components for our solutions.
LiDAR Commercial Terms Agreement
In connection with this offering, we intend to enter into a LiDAR Commercial Terms Agreement with Intel, pursuant to which Intel will supply certain products relating to LiDAR technology to us.
Tax Sharing Agreement
We have been previously included in the Consolidated Group and in certain other Combined Groups. Pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement, which will become effective as of the completion of this offering, we generally will make payments to Intel such that, with respect to tax returns for any taxable period in which we or any of our subsidiaries are included in the Consolidated Group or any Combined Group, the amount of taxes to be paid by us will be determined by computing the excess (if any) of any taxes due on any such return over the amount that would otherwise be due if such return were recomputed by excluding us and/or our included subsidiaries. Intel will prepare pro forma tax returns for us with respect to any tax return filed with respect to the Consolidated Group or any Combined Group in order to determine the amount of tax sharing payments under the Tax Sharing Agreement. We will be responsible for any taxes with respect to tax returns that include only us and/or our subsidiaries. However, to the extent the taxes due on any such return are lower than they would be if such return were recomputed by excluding us and/or our included subsidiaries, we will not receive any payment for such tax benefit.
Intel will be primarily responsible for controlling and contesting any audit or other tax proceeding. Disputes arising between the parties relating to matters covered by the Tax Sharing Agreement are subject to resolution through specific dispute resolution provisions.
We have been included in the Consolidated Group for the most recent annual period. It is expected that we will be included in the Consolidated Group following this offering. Each member of a consolidated group during any part of a consolidated return year is jointly and severally liable for the tax on the consolidated return of such year and for any subsequently determined deficiency thereon. Similarly, in some jurisdictions, each member of a consolidated, combined or unitary group for state, local or foreign income tax purposes is jointly and severally liable for the state, local or foreign income tax liability of each other member of the consolidated, combined or unitary group. Accordingly, although the Tax Sharing Agreement allocates tax liabilities between us and Intel, for any period in which we were included in the Consolidated Group or any Combined Group, we could be liable in the event that any income tax liability was incurred, but not discharged, by any other member of any such group.
As of the date of this prospectus, Intel does not intend or plan to undertake a spin-off of our stock to Intel stockholders. Nevertheless, we and Intel have agreed to set forth our respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to any possible spin-off in the Tax Sharing Agreement. If Intel were to decide to pursue a possible spin-off, we have agreed to cooperate with Intel and to take any and all actions reasonably requested by Intel in connection with such a transaction. We have also agreed not to knowingly take or fail to take any actions that could reasonably be expected to preclude Intel’s ability to undertake a tax-free spin-off. In the event Intel completes a spin-off, we have agreed not to take certain actions, such as asset sales or contributions, mergers, stock issuances or stock sales within the two years following the spin-off without first obtaining the opinion of tax counsel or an IRS ruling to the effect that such actions will not result in the spin-off failing to qualify as a tax-free spin-off. In addition, we generally would be responsible for, among other things, (i) any taxes resulting from the failure of a spin-off to qualify as a tax-free transaction to the extent such taxes are attributable to, or result from, any action or failure to act by us or certain transactions involving us following a spin-off and (ii) a percentage of such taxes to the extent such taxes are not attributable to, or do not result from, any action or failure to act by either us or Intel.
Policies and Procedures for Related Person Transactions
Prior to the completion of this offering, our board of directors will adopt a written statement of policy regarding transactions with related persons (the “Related Person Policy”). The Related Person Policy requires

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
that a “related person” ​(as defined in Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K) must disclose to our legal department any “related person transaction” ​(defined as any transaction that is anticipated to be reportable by us under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K in which we were or are to be a participant and the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and in which any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest) and all material facts with respect thereto. Our legal department will then communicate that information to our audit committee or the chair thereof. No related person transaction will be executed without the approval or ratification of our board of directors, acting through our audit committee or chair thereof. In reviewing any such proposal, our audit committee or chair thereof is to consider the relevant facts of the transaction, including the related person’s interest in the transaction, the terms of the transaction, the purpose of, and the potential benefits to us of, the transaction, and any other information regarding the transaction or the related person that would be material to investors in light of the circumstances of the particular transaction. It is our policy that directors interested in a related person transaction will recuse themselves from any vote on a related person transaction in which they have an interest.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Our amended and restated bylaws will provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. In addition, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that our directors will not be liable for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. In addition, we expect to enter into an indemnification agreement with each of our directors and executive officers in connection with this offering, which requires us to indemnify them. For more information regarding these agreements, see “Description of Capital Stock — Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers.”

PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS
The following table sets forth information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock immediately prior to and following the completion of this offering by:

each person, or group of affiliated persons, known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of the outstanding shares of any class of our common stock;

each of our directors, director nominees and named executive officers individually; and

all of our directors, director nominees and executive officers as a group.
The number of shares of common stock outstanding before this offering and the corresponding percentage of beneficial ownership are based on     shares of our Class A common stock and     shares of our Class B common stock outstanding as of     , 2022. The number of shares of common stock outstanding after this offering and the corresponding percentage of beneficial ownership are based on the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of     , 2022 after giving effect to the offering, assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares.
The number of shares beneficially owned by each stockholder is determined under rules issued by the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Under these rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which the individual or entity has sole or shared voting power or investment power. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by an individual or entity and the percentage ownership of that person, shares of common stock subject to equity awards or other rights held by such person that are currently exercisable or will become exercisable within 60 days after           , 2022 are considered outstanding, although these shares are not considered outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. The information provided in the table and related footnotes below do not give effect to any potential participation by the stockholders named therein, including any of our directors or executive officers, in the reserve share program with respect to this offering. Each of the stockholders listed has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares beneficially owned by the stockholder unless noted otherwise, subject to community property laws where applicable.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
The description below of our capital stock and provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws are summaries and are qualified by reference to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation and the amended and restated bylaws, which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is part, and by the applicable provisions of Delaware law.
General
Upon completion of this offering, our authorized capital stock will consist of        shares of capital stock, par value $0.01 per share, of which:

shares are designated as Class A common stock;

shares are designated as Class B common stock; and

shares are designated as preferred stock.
After the completion of this offering, we will be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of Nasdaq. See “Management — Controlled Company Exemption.” Unless our board of directors determines otherwise, we will issue all shares of our capital stock in uncertificated form.
Under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, we will be authorized to issue up to        shares of common stock, including        shares of our Class A common stock and        shares of our Class B common stock.
Common Stock
We have two classes of authorized common stock: Class A common stock and Class B common stock. The rights of the holders of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock will be identical, except with respect to voting, transfer, and conversion rights.
Voting Rights
Holders of our Class A common stock will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. Holders of our Class B common stock will be entitled to ten votes for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. The holders of our Class A common stock and the holders of our Class B common stock will generally vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders, unless otherwise required by Delaware law or our amended and restated certificate of incorporation. Delaware law could require either holders of our Class A common stock or holders of our Class B common stock to vote separately in the following circumstances:

if we were to seek to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to increase or decrease the par value of a class of our capital stock, then that class would be required to vote separately to approve the proposed amendment; and

if we were to seek to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation in a manner that alters or changes the powers, preferences, or special rights of a class of our capital stock in a manner that affected its holders adversely, then that class would be required to vote separately to approve the proposed amendment.
Our amended and restated articles of incorporation that will become effective immediately prior to the effective time of this registration statement will provide that stockholders are not entitled to cumulative voting for the election of directors. As a result, the holders of a majority of our voting shares can elect all of the directors then standing for election.
Immediately following the completion of this offering, investors purchasing shares of our Class A common stock in this offering will hold approximately      % of the voting power of our outstanding common stock (or approximately      % if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional
 
152

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
shares of our Class A common stock in full). Intel, which will beneficially own all of the outstanding shares of our Class B common stock, will beneficially own approximately      % of the voting power our common stock (or approximately      % if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock in full) and, as a result, will have the ability to control the outcome of matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of our directors and the approval of significant corporate transactions.
The holders of one-third of the voting power of our capital stock issued and outstanding, present in person or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business.
Conversion
Each share of our Class B common stock will be convertible into one share of Class A common stock at the option of the holder, provided that if our Class B common stock is distributed to security holders of Intel in a transaction (including any distribution in exchange for shares of Intel’s or its successor-in-interest’s common stock or other securities) intended to qualify as a distribution under Section 355 of the Code, or any corresponding provision of any successor statute, shares of our Class B common stock will no longer be convertible into shares of Class A common stock at the option of the holder. Prior to any such distribution, all shares of Class B common stock will automatically be converted into shares of Class A common stock upon the transfer of such shares of Class B common stock by Intel other than to any of Intel’s successors. If such a distribution has not occurred, each share of Class B common stock will also automatically convert at such time as the number of shares of Class B common stock owned by Intel or its successor-in-interest falls below 20% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. Following any such distribution, we may submit to our stockholders a proposal to convert all outstanding shares of our Class B common stock into shares of our Class A common stock, provided that we have received a favorable private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service satisfactory to Intel to the effect that the conversion will not affect the intended tax treatment of the distribution. In a meeting of our stockholders called for this purpose, the holders of our Class A common stock and our Class B common stock will be entitled to one vote per share and, subject to applicable law, will vote together as a single class and neither class of common stock will be entitled to a separate class vote. All conversions will be effected on a share-for-share basis.
Dividends
Holders of our common stock will be entitled to receive dividends when and if declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available therefor, subject to any statutory or contractual restrictions on the payment of dividends and to any restrictions on the payment of dividends imposed by the terms of any outstanding preferred stock. See “Dividend Policy.”
Liquidation, Dissolution and Winding Up
Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up and after payment in full of all amounts required to be paid to creditors and to the holders of preferred stock having liquidation preferences, if any, the holders of shares of our common stock will be entitled to receive pro rata our remaining assets available for distribution.
Rights and Preferences
Except for the conversion provisions with respect to our Class B common stock described above, holders of our common stock have no preemptive, conversion or subscription rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock. The common stock will not be subject to further calls or assessment by us. All shares of our common stock that will be outstanding at the time of the completion of the offering will be fully paid and non-assessable. The rights, preferences, and privileges of the holders of our common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of preferred stock that we may issue in the future.

Approval Rights of Holders of Class B Common Stock
In addition to any other vote required by law or by our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, until the first date on which Intel ceases to beneficially own 20% or more of the outstanding shares of our common stock, the prior affirmative vote or written consent of Intel as the holder of the Class B common stock is required in order to authorize us to:

adopt or implement any stockholder rights plan or similar takeover defense measure;

consolidate or merge with or into any other entity;

permit any of our subsidiaries to consolidate or merge with or into any other entity, with certain exceptions;

acquire the stock or assets of another entity for consideration in excess of $250,000,000 other than transactions in which we and one or more of our wholly owned subsidiaries are the only parties;

issue any stock or other equity securities except to our subsidiaries, pursuant to this offering, or pursuant to our employee benefit plans limited to a share reserve of 5% of the outstanding number of shares of our common stock on the immediately preceding December 31;

make or commit to make any individual or series of related capital or other expenditures in excess of $250,000,000;

create, incur, assume or permit to exist any indebtedness or guarantee any indebtedness in excess of $250,000,000;

make any loan to or purchase any debt securities of any person in excess of $250,000,000;

redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire or retire for value any equity securities of the company except repurchases from employees, officers, directors or other service providers upon termination of employment or through the exercise of any right of first refusal;

take any actions to dissolve, liquidate, or wind-up our company;

declare dividends on our stock; and

amend, terminate or adopt any provision inconsistent with our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or amended and restated bylaws.
Preferred Stock
Under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, we will be authorized to issue up to           shares of preferred stock. The preferred stock may be issued in one or more series, and our board of directors is expressly authorized to (1) fix the descriptions, powers, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations, and restrictions with respect to any series of preferred stock and (2) specify the number of shares of any series of preferred stock. Any issuance of our preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders of our common stock and the likelihood that such holders would receive dividend payments and payments on liquidation. In addition, the issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change of control or other corporate action. On the completion of this offering, no shares of preferred stock will be outstanding. We presently have no plan to issue any shares of preferred stock.
Anti-Takeover Provisions
Section 203 of the DGCL
Section 203 of the DGCL prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years after the date that such stockholder became an interested stockholder, with the following exceptions:

before such date, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;
 
154

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 

upon completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction began, excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding (but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder) those shares owned (i) by persons who are directors and also officers and (ii) employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or

on or after such date, the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 6623% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.
In general, Section 203 defines a “business combination” to include the following:

any merger or consolidation involving the corporation and the interested stockholder;

any sale, transfer, pledge, or other disposition of 10% or more of the assets of the corporation involving the interested stockholder;

subject to certain exceptions, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the corporation of any stock of the corporation to the interested stockholder;

any transaction involving the corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of the stock or any class or series of the corporation beneficially owned by the interested stockholder; or

the receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges, or other financial benefits by or through the corporation.
In general, Section 203 defines an “interested stockholder” as an entity or person who, together with the person’s affiliates and associates, beneficially owns, or within three years prior to the time of determination of interested stockholder status did own, 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation.
A Delaware corporation may “opt out” of these provisions with an express provision in its original certificate of incorporation or an express provision in its amended and restated certificate of incorporation or amended and restated bylaws resulting from a stockholders’ amendment approved by at least a majority of the outstanding voting shares. Under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, we will explicitly opt out of these provisions for so long as Intel owns at least 15% of the combined voting power of our common stock. If Intel owns less than 15% of the combined voting power of our common stock, we will be subject to Section 203 of the DGCL and, as a result, mergers or other takeover or change in control attempts of us may be discouraged or prevented.
Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
The below are provisions that will be included in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws that could deter hostile takeovers or delay or prevent changes in control of our management team.
Dual class stock
As described above in “— Common Stock — Voting Rights,” our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide for a dual class common stock structure, which will provide Intel with the ability to control the outcome of matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of our directors and the approval of significant corporate transactions.
Board of director vacancies
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws will authorize only our board of directors to fill vacant directorships, including newly created seats, provided that vacancies on our board of directors caused by an action of stockholders may only be filled by a vote of the stockholders until Intel’s holdings in our stock are reduced so that it no longer maintains a majority of the
 
155

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
combined voting power of our common stock. In addition, the number of directors constituting our board of directors is permitted to be set only by a resolution adopted by a majority vote of our entire board of directors. These provisions would prevent a stockholder from increasing the size of our board of directors and then gaining control of our board of directors by filling the resulting vacancies with its own nominees. This makes it more difficult to change the composition of our board of directors but promotes continuity of management.
Classified board of directors and removal of directors
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that, beginning at the first annual meeting of stockholders following any such time that Intel’s holdings in our stock no longer represent at least 20% of the aggregate number of shares of our outstanding common stock, our board of directors will be classified into three classes of directors with staggered three-year terms, so that only one class of directors is elected each year. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will also provide that, beginning at the first annual meeting of stockholders following any such time that Intel’s holdings in our stock no longer represent at least 20% of the aggregate number of shares of our outstanding common stock, directors will only be able to be removed from office for cause.
Stockholder action and special meetings of the stockholders
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that, for so long as Intel holds a majority of the combined voting power of our common stock, any action required or permitted to be taken by our stockholders at a duly called annual or special meeting of our stockholders may be effected by consent in writing by the holders of our 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. If Intel holds less than a majority of the combined voting power of our common stock, any action required or permitted to be taken by our stockholders will have to be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of our stockholders and may not be effected by any consent in writing by our stockholders. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws will further provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by our secretary upon written request by a majority of our board of directors, the chairperson of our board of directors, or our chief executive officer, thus prohibiting stockholders from calling a special meeting. These provisions might delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or for stockholders to take any action, including the removal of directors.
Advance notice requirements for stockholder proposals and director nominations
Our amended and restated bylaws will provide advance notice procedures for stockholders seeking to bring business before our annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate candidates for election as directors at our annual meeting of stockholders. Our amended and restated bylaws will also specify certain requirements regarding the form and content of a stockholder’s notice. These provisions might preclude our stockholders from bringing matters before our annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at our annual meeting of stockholders if the proper procedures are not followed. We expect that these provisions might also discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our company.
Amendment of Bylaws
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that our amended and restated bylaws may be altered, amended, or repealed by (i) our board of directors (without the need for consent by our stockholders) and (ii) our stockholders (without the need for consent by our board of directors).
Choice of forum
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, to the fullest extent permitted by law, will provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for (1) any derivative action or proceeding
 
156

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
brought on behalf of us, (2) any action asserting a claim of breach of a duty (including any fiduciary duty) owed by any of our current or former directors, officers, stockholders, employees or agents to us or our stockholders, (3) any action asserting a claim against us or any of our current or former directors, officers, stockholders, employees or agents arising out of or relating to any provision of the DGCL or our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or our amended and restated bylaws, or (4) any action asserting a claim against us or any of our current or former directors, officers, stockholders, employees or agents governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the State of Delaware. As described below, this provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or Exchange Act, or rules and regulations thereunder. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that the federal district courts of the U.S. will, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that neither the exclusive forum provision nor our federal forum provision applies to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will also provide that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of our capital stock will be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the foregoing provision; provided, however, that stockholders will not be deemed to have waived our compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. We recognize that the forum selection clause in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation may impose additional litigation costs on stockholders in pursuing any such claims, particularly if the stockholders do not reside in or near the State of Delaware. Additionally, the forum selection clause in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation may limit our stockholders’ ability to bring a claim in a forum that they find favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers, employees, or agents, which may discourage such lawsuits against us and our directors, officers, employees, and agents even though an action, if successful, might benefit our stockholders. The Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware may also reach different judgments or results than would other courts, including courts where a stockholder considering an action may be located or would otherwise choose to bring the action, and such judgments may be more or less favorable to us than our stockholders.
For more information on the risks associated with our choice of forum provision, see “Risk Factors — Risks Related to this Offering and Our Class A Common Stock — Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will contain exclusive forum provisions for certain claims, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or employees.”
Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers
The DGCL authorizes corporations to limit or eliminate the personal liability of directors to corporations and their stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of directors’ fiduciary duties, subject to certain exceptions. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will include a provision that eliminates the personal liability of directors and officers for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, respectively, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL. The effect of such provision is to eliminate the rights of us and our stockholders, through stockholders’ derivative suits on our behalf, to recover monetary damages from a director for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, including breaches resulting from grossly negligent behavior.
However, exculpation does not apply to any director if the director has breached the duty of loyalty to the corporation and its stockholders, acted in bad faith, knowingly or intentionally violated the law, authorized illegal dividends, or redemptions or derived an improper benefit from his, her or their actions as a director.
Our amended and restated bylaws will provide that we must generally indemnify, and advance expenses to, our directors and officers appointed by our board of directors to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL. We also will be expressly authorized to carry directors’ and officers’ liability insurance providing indemnification for our directors, officers, employees, and agents for some liabilities. We believe that these limitations of liability, indemnification, and advancement provisions and insurance are useful to attract and retain qualified directors and executive officers.
 
157

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
The limitation of liability, indemnification, and advancement provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions also may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. In addition, your investment in us may be adversely affected to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions.
There is currently no pending material litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officers, employees, or agents for which indemnification is sought.
Prior to the completion of this offering, we intend to enter into separate indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers pursuant to which we will agree to indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
Provisions of Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation Relating to Related Person Transactions and Corporate Opportunities
In anticipation that we and Intel may engage in the same or similar activities or lines of business and have an interest in the same areas of corporate opportunities, and in recognition of the benefits to be derived by us through our continued contractual, corporate, and business relations with Intel (including service of officers and/or directors of Intel as officers and/or directors of our company), certain provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation described below will regulate and define the conduct of certain affairs of our company as they may involve Intel and its officers and directors, and the powers, rights, duties, and liabilities of our company and our officers, directors, and stockholders in connection with such affairs.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, so long as the material facts as to a contract, agreement, arrangement, or transaction between us and Intel are disclosed or are known to our board of directors or the committee thereof that authorizes such contract, agreement, arrangement, or transaction, and our board of directors or such committee in good faith authorizes such contract, agreement, arrangement, or transaction by the affirmative vote of a majority of the disinterested directors, even if less than a quorum, no such contract, agreement, arrangement, or transaction will be void or voidable solely for the reason that Intel is a party thereto, and Intel:

will be deemed to have fully satisfied and fulfilled any duties to us and our stockholders with respect to such contract, agreement, arrangement, or transaction;

will not be liable to us or our stockholders for any breach of fiduciary duty by reason of the entering into, performance or consummation of any such contract, agreement, arrangement, or transaction;

will be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner it reasonably believed to be in and not opposed to the best interests of our company; and

will be deemed not to have breached any duties of loyalty to us or our stockholders and not to have received an improper personal gain from such contract, agreement, arrangement, or transaction.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will further provide that, until the later of (i) first date on which Intel ceases to beneficially own 20% or more of the outstanding shares of our common stock and (ii) the date upon which none of our officers and/or directors are also officers and/or directors of Intel, Intel shall have the right to, and shall have no duty not to, engage in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as we do, do business with any of our clients or customers, and employ or otherwise engage any of our officers or employees. We will renounce any interest or expectancy in any such activities and will not be deemed to have an interest or expectancy in any such activities merely because we

engage in the same or similar activities or otherwise. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and except as provided in the following paragraph, neither Intel nor any of its officers or directors will be liable to us or our stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty by reason of any such activities of Intel or of such person’s participation in such activities. Moreover, except as provided in the following paragraph, in the event that Intel acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for both Intel and us, Intel will not have any duty to communicate or present it to us, and Intel shall not be liable to us or our stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty as our stockholder by reason of the fact that it pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself, directs such corporate opportunity to another person or entity, or does not present such corporate opportunity to us.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will also provide that, until the later of (i) first date on which Intel ceases to beneficially own 20% or more of the outstanding shares of our common stock and (ii) the date upon which none of our officers and/or directors are also officers and/or directors of Intel, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in the event that our director or officer who is also a director or officer of Intel acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for both us and Intel and which may be properly pursued by us, such director or officer will be deemed to have fully satisfied and fulfilled such person’s fiduciary duty to us and our stockholders with respect to such corporate opportunity, will not be liable to us or our stockholders for any breach of fiduciary duty because Intel pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself or directs such corporate opportunity to another person or entity or does not present such corporate opportunity to us, will be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believes to be in and not opposed to our best interests, and will be deemed not to have breached such person’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders or to have received an improper personal gain therefrom; provided that such director or officer acts in good faith in a manner consistent with the following policy:

where a corporate opportunity is offered to a person who is our director and/or officer and who is also a director and/or officer of Intel, we shall be entitled to pursue such opportunity only if such opportunity is expressly offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as our director and/or officer, as applicable; and

if our officer and/or director, who also serves as an officer and/or director of Intel, acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for both us and Intel in any manner not addressed by the foregoing bullet point, such officer or director shall have no duty to communicate or present such corporate opportunity to us and shall to the fullest extent permitted by law not be liable to us or our stockholders for breach of fiduciary duty as our officer or director by reason of the fact that Intel pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself, directs such corporate opportunity to another person or entity or does not present such corporate opportunity to us.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our Class A common stock, and we cannot predict the effect, if any, that sales of shares or availability of any shares for sale will have on the market price of our Class A common stock prevailing from time to time. Sales of substantial amounts of our Class A common stock (including shares of Class A common stock issued on the exercise of options, warrants or convertible securities, if any) or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock and our ability to raise additional capital through a future sale of securities.
Upon the completion of this offering, we will have       shares of our Class A common stock issued and outstanding (or       shares if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock in full) and       shares of our Class B common stock issued and outstanding. All of the shares of our Class A common stock sold in this offering will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act unless such shares are purchased by “affiliates” as that term is defined in Rule 144. Upon the completion of this offering, all of our outstanding Class B common stock will be beneficially owned by Intel. Any shares of our Class A common stock not sold in this offering and all shares of our Class B common stock will be “restricted securities” as that phrase is defined in Rule 144. Subject to certain contractual restrictions, including the lock-up agreements described below, holders of restricted shares will be entitled to sell those shares in the public market if they qualify for an exemption from registration under Rule 144, Rule 701, or any other applicable exemption under the Securities Act.
Lock-Up Agreements
See “Underwriting” for a description of the lock-up agreements applicable to our shares.
Rule 144
In general, under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, persons who became the beneficial owner of shares of our common stock prior to the completion of this offering may not sell their shares until the earlier of (1) the expiration of a six-month holding period, if we have been subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and have filed all required reports for at least 90 days prior to the date of the sale, or (2) a one-year holding period.
At the expiration of the six-month holding period, a person who was not one of our affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale is entitled to sell an unlimited number of shares of our common stock provided current public information about us is available, and a person who was one of our affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale is entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of shares of common stock that does not exceed the greater of either of the following:

one percent of the number of shares of our Class A common stock then outstanding, which will equal approximately       shares immediately after this offering; or

the average weekly trading volume of our Class A common stock on Nasdaq during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.
At the expiration of the one-year holding period, a person who was not one of our affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale would be entitled to sell an unlimited number of shares of our common stock without restriction. A person who was one of our affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale would remain subject to the volume restrictions described above.
In addition, sales under Rule 144 by affiliates or persons who have been affiliates within the previous 90 days are also subject to manner of sale provisions and notice requirements. Upon completion of the lock-up period, subject to any extension of the lock-up period under circumstances described above, approximately       shares of our outstanding restricted securities will be eligible for sale under Rule 144 subject to limitations on sales by affiliates.

agreement before the effective date of our initial public offering, or who purchased shares from us after that date upon the exercise of options granted before that date, are eligible to resell such shares in reliance upon Rule 144 beginning 90 days after the date of this prospectus. If such person is not an affiliate, the sale may be made under Rule 144 without compliance with that rule’s holding period or current public information requirement. If such a person is an affiliate, the sale may be made under Rule 144 without compliance with that rule’s one-year minimum holding period, but subject to the other Rule 144 requirements. The SEC has indicated that Rule 701 may apply to typical stock options granted by an issuer before it becomes subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, along with the shares acquired upon exercise of such options, including exercises after the date of this prospectus.
Registration Statements on Form S-8
We intend to file one or more registration statements on Form S-8 under the Securities Act to register all shares of our common stock subject to outstanding stock options and the shares of stock subject to issuance under our equity incentive plan. Any such Form S-8 registration statement will automatically become effective upon filing. Accordingly shares registered under such registration statements will be available for sale in the open market. We expect that the initial registration statement on Form S-8 will cover       shares.
Registration Rights
In connection with this offering, we will enter into an agreement that will provide that Intel will be entitled to various rights with respect to the registration of the offer and sale of our securities that it holds under the Securities Act, subject to the lock-up agreements described above. If the offer and sale of these shares is registered, these shares will become freely tradable without restriction under the Securities Act immediately upon the effectiveness of the registration, except for shares purchased by affiliates.

U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS FOR NON-U.S. HOLDERS
The following discussion is a summary of U.S. federal income tax considerations generally applicable to the ownership and disposition of shares of our Class A common stock by non-U.S. holders (as defined below) who acquire such shares in this offering and hold our Class A common stock as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (generally, property held for investment). This summary is based on current provisions of the Code, U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, and administrative rulings and interpretations and court decisions in effect as of the date hereof, all of which are subject to change or differing interpretation at any time, possibly with retroactive effect. This summary does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to a non-U.S. holder in light of that holder’s particular circumstances or that may be applicable to holders subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax law (including, for example, banks and other financial institutions, dealers in securities, traders in securities that elect mark-to-market treatment, insurance companies, retirement plans, mutual funds, tax-exempt entities, holders who acquired shares of our Class A common stock pursuant to the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation, entities or arrangements treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes, controlled foreign corporations, passive foreign investment companies, holders liable for the alternative minimum tax, certain expatriates and former citizens or former long-term residents of the United States, holders who have a “functional currency” other than the U.S. dollar, and holders who hold shares of our Class A common stock as part of a hedge, straddle, constructive sale or conversion transaction). In addition, this discussion does not address U.S. federal tax laws other than those pertaining to the U.S. federal income tax, nor does it address any aspects of the unearned income Medicare contribution tax or U.S. state, local or non-U.S. taxes. Accordingly, prospective investors should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal, state, local, non-U.S. income and other tax considerations (including any U.S. federal estate or gift tax considerations) of owning and disposing of shares of our Class A common stock.
For purposes of this discussion, the term “non-U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of our Class A common stock that is not any of the following:

a citizen or individual resident of the United States;

a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, created or organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

an estate, the income of which is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its source; or

a trust if (1) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (2) it has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
If an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal tax purposes holds shares of our Class A common stock, the tax treatment of a person treated as a partner generally will depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partnerships holding shares of our Class A common stock and partners in such partnerships should consult their tax advisors.
Prospective holders of our Class A common stock should consult with their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences to them (including the application and effect of any state, local, non-U.S. income and other tax laws) of the ownership and disposition of shares of our Class A common stock.
Distributions on Our Class A Common Stock
In general, subject to the discussion below under “— Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act,” any distributions we make to a non-U.S. holder with respect to its shares of our Class A common stock that constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes will be subject to U.S. withholding tax at a rate of 30% of the gross amount (or a reduced rate prescribed by an applicable income tax treaty), unless the dividends are effectively connected with a trade or business carried on by the non-U.S. holder within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
establishment of the non-U.S. holder within the U.S.). A distribution generally will constitute a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent of our current or accumulated earnings and profits as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Any distribution not constituting a dividend will be treated as first reducing the adjusted basis in the non-U.S. holder’s shares of our Class A common stock and, to the extent such distribution exceeds the adjusted basis in the non-U.S. holder’s shares of our Class A common stock, as gain from the sale or exchange of such shares.
Dividends effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment) of a non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to U.S. withholding tax if the non-U.S. holder complies with applicable certification and disclosure requirements. Instead, such dividends generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis, in the same manner as if the non-U.S. holder were a resident of the U.S. A non-U.S. holder that is a corporation may be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on such effectively connected dividends, subject to certain adjustments.
Gain on Sale or Other Disposition of Our Class A Common Stock
In general, a non-U.S. holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain recognized upon the sale or other disposition of our Class A common stock unless:

the gain is “effectively connected” with a trade or business carried on by the non-U.S. holder within the United States and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment of the non-U.S. holder;

the non-U.S. holder is an individual and is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of disposition and certain other conditions are satisfied; or

we are or have been a U.S. real property holding corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes at any time within the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of the disposition and the non-U.S. holder’s holding period and certain other conditions are satisfied.
Gain that is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax, net of certain deductions, at regular U.S. federal income tax rates. If the non-U.S. holder is a foreign corporation, the branch profits tax described above also may apply to such effectively connected gain. An individual non-U.S. holder who is subject to U.S. federal income tax because the non-U.S. holder was present in the United States for 183 days or more during the year of sale or other disposition of our Class A common stock will be subject to a flat 30% tax on the gain derived from such sale or other disposition, which may be offset by U.S. source capital losses.
Generally, a corporation is a “U.S. real property holding corporation” if the fair market value of its U.S. real property interests equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market value of its worldwide real property interests and its other assets used or held for use in a trade or business (all as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes). Although there can be no assurances in this regard, we believe that we are not currently, and do not anticipate becoming, a U.S. real property holding corporation.
Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act
Provisions commonly referred to as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”) impose withholding (separate and apart from, but without duplication of, the withholding tax described above) at a rate of 30% on payments of dividends (including constructive dividends) on shares of our Class A common stock to certain foreign financial institutions (which is broadly defined for this purpose and in general includes investment vehicles) and certain non-financial foreign entities unless (1) in the case of a foreign financial institution, such institution enters into, and complies with, an agreement with the U.S. government to withhold on certain payments, and to collect and provide, on an annual basis, to the U.S. tax authorities substantial information regarding U.S. account holders of such institution (which includes certain equity and debt holders of such institution, as well as certain account holders that are foreign entities with U.S. owners), (2) in the case of a non-financial foreign entity, such entity certifies to the withholding agent that it does not have any substantial U.S. owners or provides the withholding agent with a certification identifying

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
the direct and indirect substantial U.S. owners of the entity, (3) the foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity otherwise qualifies for an exemption from these rules or, if required under an intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country, reports the information described in clause (1) to its local tax authority, which will exchange such information with the U.S. authorities. If FATCA withholding is imposed, a beneficial owner that is not a foreign financial institution will generally be entitled to a refund of any amounts withheld by filing a U.S. federal income tax return (which may entail significant administrative burden). An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country, or future Treasury regulations, may modify these requirements. Accordingly, the entity through which shares of our Class A common stock are held will affect the determination of whether such withholding is required. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the possible implications of FATCA on their investment in our Class A common stock.

Prior to the offering, there has been no public market for the shares. The initial public offering price will be negotiated among us and the representatives. Among the factors to be considered in determining the initial public offering price of our Class A common stock, in addition to prevailing market conditions, will be our historical performance, estimates of our business potential and earnings prospects, an assessment of our management and the consideration of the above factors in relation to market valuation of companies in related businesses.
We have applied to have our Class A common stock approved for listing on Nasdaq under the symbol “MBLY”.
In connection with this offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell shares of our Class A common stock in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, stabilizing transactions, and purchases to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of shares than they are required to purchase in this offering, and a short position represents the amount of such sales that have not been covered by subsequent purchases. A “covered short position” is a short position that is not greater than the number of additional shares for which the underwriters’ option described above may be exercised. The underwriters may cover any covered short position by either exercising their option to purchase additional shares or purchasing shares in the open market. In determining the source of shares to cover the covered short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase additional shares pursuant to the option described above. “Naked” short sales are any short sales that create a short position greater than the number of additional shares for which the option described above may be exercised. The underwriters must cover any such naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of our Class A common stock in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of various bids for or purchases of our Class A common stock made by the underwriters in the open market prior to the completion of this offering.
The underwriters may also impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the underwriters a portion of the underwriting discount received by it because the representatives have repurchased shares sold by or for the account of such underwriter in stabilizing or short covering transactions.
Purchases to cover a short position and stabilizing transactions, as well as other purchases by the underwriters for their own accounts, may have the effect of preventing or retarding a decline in the market

price of our stock, and together with the imposition of the penalty bid, may stabilize, maintain, or otherwise affect the market price of our Class A common stock. As a result, the price of our Class A common stock may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. The underwriters are not required to engage in these activities and may end any of these activities at any time. These transactions may be effected on                 , in the over-the-counter market, or otherwise.
We estimate that our share of the total expenses of the offering, excluding underwriting discounts and commissions, will be approximately $      million.
We will also agree to reimburse the underwriters for expenses in an amount not to exceed $      relating to any applicable state securities filings and to clearance of this offering with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. We will also agree to indemnify the several underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. In addition, the underwriters have agreed to reimburse us for certain expenses in connection with this offering.
The underwriters and their respective affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include sales and trading, commercial and investment banking, advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, market making, brokerage and other financial and non-financial activities and services. Certain of the underwriters and their respective affiliates have provided, and may in the future provide, a variety of these services to us and to persons and entities with relationships with us, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses.
In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the underwriters and their respective affiliates, officers, directors, and employees may purchase, sell, or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade securities, derivatives, loans, commodities, currencies, credit default swaps, and other financial instruments for their own account and for the accounts of their customers, and such investment and trading activities may involve or relate to our assets, securities, and/or instruments (directly, as collateral securing other obligations or otherwise) and/or persons and entities with whom we have relationships. The underwriters and their respective affiliates may also communicate independent investment recommendations, market color or trading ideas, and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such assets, securities, or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to clients that they should acquire, long and/or short positions in such assets, securities, and instruments.

EXPERTS
The combined financial statements as of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020 and for the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019 included in this prospectus have been so included in reliance on the report of Kesselman & Kesselman, Certified Public Accountants (Isr.), a member firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Limited, an independent registered public accounting firm, given on the authority of said firm as experts in auditing and accounting.
Kesselman & Kesselman (“PwC”) completed an independence assessment to evaluate the services and relationships with the Company and its affiliates that may bear on PwC’s independence under the SEC and the PCAOB independence rules for the audit periods commencing December 30, 2018 through December 25, 2021. As described below, services and relationships were found to exist at controlled subsidiaries of the Company’s indirect parent, Intel Corporation and/or benefitting an upstream affiliate of the Company, within the audit period which are not in accordance with the independence standards of Regulation S-X and the PCAOB.

Prior to December 30, 2018 and through January 2022, certain member firms of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Limited (“PwC member firms”) performed certain payroll and human resource administrative services inconsistent with Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X, which included records administration, employee registration with local authorities, statistical reporting and signing and stamping declarations on behalf of Intel Corporation, transmission of payroll information to banks and to third party service providers for actual payment, data storage of employee data, as well as manually and/or electronically distributing pay stubs to employees of Intel Corporation.

From July 2020 through December 2021, a PwC member firm provided services pursuant to a contingent fee arrangement.

From June 2021 through January 2022, certain PwC member firms provided non-audit services for which certain activities inconsistent with Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X were performed, which were hosting applications, filing a document with a non-taxing authority and making a payment on behalf of an affiliate.

Certain professionals of PwC member firms who are covered persons with respect to the audit of the Company under PCAOB standards hold shares in Intel Corporation. Ownership of shares in Intel Corporation is prohibited under the SEC and PCAOB independence rules for covered persons. The shares, where allowed under federal law, were disposed of promptly upon notification of these matters and were not material to the respective professionals’ net worth.
PwC provided an overview to our Board of Directors to be updated to the Audit Committee upon formation of an Audit Committee and Executive Management team of the facts and circumstances surrounding the services and relationships, including the entities involved, the nature of the services and relationships, the period over which the services and relationships existed, and the fees earned by the PwC network firms. Additionally, the services, relationships and fees are not significant to the PwC network firms, do not place PwC in a position of auditing its own work, do not result in PwC acting as management or an employee of the Company and do not place PwC in a position of being an advocate for the Company. Considering the facts presented, our Board of Directors, to be updated to the Audit Committee upon formation of an Audit Committee, Executive Management team and PwC have concluded (1) that the services and relationships do not and would not impair PwC’s application of objective and impartial judgment on any matter encompassed within PwC’s audits of our combined financial statements as of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020 and for the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019 and (2) no reasonable investor would conclude otherwise.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors of Intel and the Shareholder of Mobileye Group
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of the Mobileye Group (a business of Intel Corporation) (the “Company”) as of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, and the related combined statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), of changes in equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 25, 2021, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “combined financial statements”). In our opinion, the combined financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 25, 2021 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These combined financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s combined financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits of these combined financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the combined financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the combined financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the combined financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the combined financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the combined financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the combined financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the combined financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Attribution of Intangible Assets to the Combined Financial Statements
As described in Note 11 to the combined financial statements, the Company’s intangible asset balance was $3,071 million at December 25, 2021 and the amortization expense was $509 million for the year ended December 25, 2021. These intangible assets consist primarily of developed technology and customer relationships and brands that were attributed to the Company from Intel Corporation (the “Parent”) as part of the net parent investment in the Company primarily from the acquisition of Mobileye B.V. The recognition of those intangible assets included significant judgment in estimating the fair value of intangible assets, which involved the use of significant estimates and assumptions with respect to the timing and amounts of cash flow projections and discount rate as well as the determination of the estimated useful lives of the intangible assets.
 
F-2

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the attributed intangible assets to the Company is a critical audit matter are (i) there was a high degree of auditor judgment and subjectivity in applying procedures relating to the fair value measurement of intangible assets due to the significant amount of judgment by management when developing the estimate; (ii) significant audit effort was required in evaluating the significant assumptions relating to the estimate, such as the cash flow projections, discount rate and estimated useful lives; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the combined financial statements. These procedures included, among others (i) testing management's process for estimating the fair value of intangible assets and their useful lives; (ii) evaluating the appropriateness of the cash flow model and determination of the useful lives, (iii) testing management’s cash flow projections used to estimate the fair value of the intangible assets, using professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in doing so. Testing management’s process included evaluating the appropriateness of the valuation methods and the reasonableness of significant assumptions, including the discount rate for the intangible assets and their useful lives. Evaluating the reasonableness of the cash flow projections, discount rate and estimated useful lives, involved considering the past performance of the businesses, as well as economic and industry forecasts. The discount rate was evaluated by considering the cost of capital of comparable businesses and other industry factors.

MOBILEYE GROUP
Notes to the Combined Financial Statements
NOTE 1   GENERAL
Background
Mobileye Group is a leader in the development and deployment of advanced driver assistance systems (“ADAS”) and autonomous driving technologies and solutions. Mobileye Group combines the operations of Cyclops Holdings Corporation, Mobileye B.V. and its subsidiaries (“Mobileye”) GG Acquisition Ltd. and the Moovit App Global Ltd. and its subsidiaries (“Moovit”) and certain Intel employees mainly in research and development (the “Intel Aligned Groups”) (collectively, the “Company”, “we”, and “our”). The Company operates as a combination of wholly-owned businesses of Intel Corporation (“Intel or the “Parent”).
Mobileye operates as a component of Intel, which acquired a majority stake in Mobileye in August 2017 (the “Mobileye Acquisition”). The remaining issued and outstanding shares of Mobileye were acquired by Intel during 2018. The Company is building a robust portfolio of end-to-end ADAS and autonomous driving solutions to provide the capabilities required for the future of autonomous driving, leveraging a comprehensive suite of purpose-built software and hardware technologies.
Moovit, a leading urban mobility app and mobility-as-a-service (“MaaS”) solutions provider also operates as a component of Intel upon acquisition of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Moovit in May 2020 (the “Moovit Acquisition”).
In December 2021, Intel announced plans to pursue an initial public offering (“IPO”) of Mobileye Group. In January 2022, Intel incorporated a new legal entity, Mobileye Global Inc., with the intent to contribute the Company to Mobileye Global Inc. and be able to offer newly issued shares of common stock of Mobileye Global Inc. in an IPO. Intel expects to retain majority ownership of the Company following the completion of the IPO.
NOTE 2   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
These combined financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).
The combined financial statements and accompanying notes have been derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of Intel and are presented as if the Company had been operating as a stand-alone company for all periods presented. The assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses directly attributable to the Company’s operations, including the acquired goodwill and intangible assets, have been reflected in these combined financial statements on a historical cost basis, as included in the consolidated financial statements of Intel.
The Company utilized the Intel Aligned Groups mainly in research and development activities. The associated costs of the Intel Aligned Groups are reflected on a specific attribution basis in the combined statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Intel Aligned Groups also participated in various Intel compensation and benefit plans. Portions of those plans’ costs were based on actual headcount and included in these combined financial statements. These costs are not necessarily indicative of costs that would have been incurred had the Company operated on a stand-alone basis.
The combined statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) also include allocations of general corporate expenses from Intel. These expenses have been allocated to the Company on the basis of direct usage when identifiable or allocated on the basis of headcount. Management of the Company and Parent considered the basis on which the expenses have been allocated to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of the services provided to or the benefit received by the Company during the periods presented. Mobileye largely continued to operate as a standalone operation and had not been fully integrated into
 
F-9

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Intel, with limited use of corporate overhead functions. The allocated costs for the periods presented in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) were not material. The allocations may not be reflective of the expenses that would have incurred had the Company operated as a stand-alone company for the periods presented. These costs also may not be indicative of the expenses that the Company will incur in the future or would have incurred if the Company had obtained these services from a third party. Actual costs that may have been incurred if the Company had operated as a stand-alone company would depend on a number of factors, including the chosen organizational structure, the outsourcing of certain functions, and other strategic decisions.
As Mobileye Group was not historically held by a single legal entity, total parent net investment is shown in lieu of equity in the combined financial statements and represents Intel’s total interest in the recorded net assets of Mobileye Group. All intercompany transactions within the combined businesses of the Company have been eliminated. Transactions between the Company and Intel, arising from arrangements with Intel and other similar related-party transactions, were considered to be effectively settled in the combined financial statements at the time the transactions were recorded, unless otherwise noted. The total net effect of the settlement of these transactions was reflected within parent net investment as a component of equity in the combined balance sheets and within net transfers from (to) Parent as a financing activity in the combined statements of cash flows, unless otherwise noted.
Net loss per share data has not been presented in the combined financial statements because Mobileye Group did not operate as a separate legal entity with its own capital structure during the periods presented.
The Company operates on a 52-week or 53-week fiscal year that ends on the last Saturday in December. Fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019 were 52-week fiscal years.
Use of estimates
The preparation of combined financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts and events reported and disclosed in the combined financial statements and accompanying notes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions and factors, including the current economic environment, that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates, judgments, and assumptions. The most significant estimates and assumptions relate to recognition and useful lives of intangible assets, impairment assessment of intangible assets and goodwill, and income taxes.

The majority of the Company’s and its subsidiaries revenue are denominated in the United States (“U.S.”) dollar, as are most purchases of materials and components. The Company’s financings and capitalization have also been denominated in the U.S. dollar. Management believes that the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company and its subsidiaries operate is the U.S. dollar, and thus, the U.S. dollar is the functional and reporting currency of the Company and its subsidiaries.
Accordingly, transactions in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are measured and recorded in the functional currency using the exchange rate in effect at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are measured using the official exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured into the functional currency using the historical exchange rate. The effects of foreign currency remeasurements are recorded in the combined statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) as other expenses, net.
Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash
Cash equivalents are short-term unrestricted highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash and with original maturities of three months or less at acquisition.
Restricted bank deposits are cash amounts related to bank guarantees mainly in connection with lease agreements and import of vehicles. Such deposits are stated at cost, which approximates market values. These amounts are included in other long-term assets on the combined balance sheets.

Fair value measurement
When determining fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact, as well as assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. The Company assesses fair value hierarchy levels for its financial assets based on the underlying financial instrument.
Consistent with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurement, the Company follows a three-tier fair value hierarchy as a basis for considering the assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.
Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but are corroborated by market data or active market data for similar, but not identical assets or liabilities.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The Company monitors and reviews the inputs and results of these valuation models to help ensure the fair value measurements are reasonable and consistent with market experience in similar asset classes. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.
In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible and considers credit risk in its assessment of fair value.
The Company measures its investments in short term deposits classified as cash equivalents at fair value on a recurring basis, due to the short maturity of these items, the carrying value is deemed to approximate to fair value. Short term deposits included in cash and cash equivalents were $209 million and $59 million as of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, respectively.
The carrying amounts of the related party loan, trade accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of their generally short maturities.
The Company also has goodwill and acquisition-related in-process research and development assets that are required to be recorded at fair value only if an impairment is recognized in the current year. As described in further details in Note 10 and Note 11, these assets are evaluated on an ongoing basis for impairment. The fair value of these assets was determined using estimated discounted future cash flows, or cost-replacement and cost-savings methods, which are Level 3 valuation techniques.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The Company computes inventory cost on an average cost basis and adjusts for excess and obsolete inventories primarily based on future demand and market conditions, including product-specific facts and circumstances that considers the Company’s

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
customer base and an assessment of selling price in relation to product cost. Once written-down, a new lower cost basis for that inventory is established.
Property and equipment, net
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Property and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.
The estimated useful lives per asset type are as follows:
Years
Computers, equipment, and software
3 – 7
Vehicles
7
Office furniture and equipment
14
Electronic equipment
4
Leasehold improvements are amortized by the straight-line method over the shorter of the term of the lease and estimated useful life of the improvements. Buildings and any assets in construction are not depreciated until they are put into service.
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. The Company includes the results of operations of the businesses that we acquire in the combined financial statements beginning on the date of acquisition. The Company allocates the purchase price paid for assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the Company’s acquisitions based on their estimated fair values at the time of acquisition. This allocation involves a number of assumptions, estimates, and judgments in determining the fair value of the following:

intangible assets, including the valuation methodology, estimations of future cash flows, discount rates, and growth rates, as well as the estimated useful life of intangible assets;

deferred tax assets and liabilities, uncertain tax positions, and tax-related valuation allowances, which are initially estimated as of the acquisition date;

inventory; property and equipment; pre-existing liabilities or legal claims; deferred revenue; and contingent consideration, each as may be applicable; and

goodwill measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the net of the acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.
The Company’s assumptions and estimates are based on comparable market data and information obtained from the Company’s management and the management of the acquired companies. The Company allocates goodwill to the reporting units of the business that are expected to benefit from the acquisition.
Goodwill
The Company performs an annual impairment assessment of goodwill at the reporting unit level in the fourth quarter of each year, or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist. The analysis may include both qualitative and quantitative factors to assess the likelihood of impairment. Additionally, the Company is permitted to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether a quantitative goodwill impairment test is necessary. Further testing is performed if the Company determines, based on the qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount.
Qualitative factors include industry and market considerations, overall financial performance, and other relevant events and factors affecting the reporting unit. Additionally, as part of this assessment, the Company may perform a quantitative analysis to support the qualitative factors above by applying sensitivities to assumptions and inputs used in measuring a reporting unit’s fair value.
 
F-12

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
The Company’s quantitative impairment test considers both the income approach and the market approach to estimate a reporting unit’s fair value. Significant estimates include growth rates, estimated costs, and discount rates based on a reporting unit’s weighted average cost of capital.
The Company performed a quantitative assessment for one of its reporting units in the year ended December 25, 2021. The Company did not record any impairment of goodwill for any of the periods presented. Forecasts and estimates are based on assumptions that are consistent with the plans and estimates used to manage the business. Changes in these estimates could change the conclusion regarding an impairment of goodwill.
Intangible assets, net
The Company amortizes acquisition-related intangible assets that are subject to amortization over their estimated useful life. Acquisition-related in-process research and development assets represent the fair value of incomplete research and development projects that had not reached technological feasibility as of the date of acquisition; initially, these are classified as in-process research and development and are not subject to amortization. Once these research and development projects are completed, the asset balances are transferred from in-process research and development to acquisition-related developed technology and are subject to amortization from this point forward. The asset balances relating to projects that are abandoned after acquisition are impaired and expensed to research and development.
The Company performs a quarterly review of significant finite-lived identified intangible assets to determine whether facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. These reviews can be affected by various factors, including external factors such as industry and economic trends, and internal factors such as changes in the Company’s business strategy and its forecasts for specific product lines.
Impairment of long-lived assets
Long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. Assets are categorized and evaluated for impairment at the lowest level of identifiable cash flows. In the event that the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the long-lived assets is less than the carrying amount of such assets, an impairment charge would be recognized and the assets would be written down to their estimated fair values. During the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019, no impairment indicators were identified.
Research and development, net
Research and development expenses are expensed as incurred, and consist primarily of personnel, facilities, equipment, and supplies for research and development activities.
The Company follows the provisions of ASC 985, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed, which requires that software development costs incurred in conjunction with development be charged to research and development expenses until technological feasibility is established. The technological feasibility is established upon completion of a working model. The costs incurred by the Company between technological feasibility and general release to the public have been insignificant. Accordingly, all research and development costs have been expensed as incurred.
The Company occasionally enters into best-efforts nonrefundable, non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) arrangements pursuant to which the Company is reimbursed for a portion of the research and development expenses attributable to specific development programs. The Company does not receive any additional compensation or royalties upon completion of such projects and the potential customer does not commit to purchase the resulting product in the future. The participation reimbursement received by the Company does not depend on whether there are future benefits from the project. All intellectual property generated from these arrangements is exclusively owned by the Company.
Participations in expenses for research and development projects are recognized on the basis of the costs incurred and are netted against research and development expenses in the combined statements of

operations and comprehensive income (loss). Research and development reimbursements of $54 million, $48 million, and $42 million were offset against research and development costs in the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019, respectively.
Derivatives and hedging
Beginning in 2021, as part of Intel’s corporate hedging program, Intel is hedging forecast cash flows denominated in Israel Shekels (“ILS”) related to the Company. ILS is the largest operating expense currency of the Company. Intel combines all of its ILS exposures, and as part of Intel’s hedging program enters into hedging contracts to hedge Intel’s combined ILS exposure. Gains and losses attributed to these combined financial statements are recorded under accumulated other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The amount of hedging gain that was reclassified to the combined statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the year ended December 25, 2021 was approximately $13 million.
Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes net product revenue when performance obligations are satisfied as evidenced by the transfer of control of the Company’s products or services to customers. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is derived from product sales. In accordance with contract terms, revenue for product sales is recognized at the time of product shipment from the Company’s facilities, as determined by the agreed upon shipping terms. Revenue for product sales to resellers and distributors is recognized at the time of delivery of products to the resellers and distributors.
The Company measures revenue based on the amount of consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for products or services. Variable consideration is estimated and reflected as an adjustment to the transaction price. The Company determines variable consideration, which consists primarily of various volume rebates, by estimating the most likely amount of consideration the Company expects to receive from the customer. Volume rebates earned by customers are offset against their receivable balances. Rebates earned by customers when they do not have outstanding receivable balances are recorded within other current liabilities. Substantially all of the Company’s contracts do not include right of return or acceptance provisions. Revenue is recognized net of any taxes invoiced to customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities. Any shipping and handling costs related to the fulfillment of sales are included in cost of revenue.
Advertising expenses
Advertising expenses are charged to sales and marketing on the combined statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) as incurred. Advertising expenses for the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019 amounted to $2 million, $3 million, and $2 million, respectively.
Share-based compensation
The Company’s employees participate in Intel’s equity incentive plans. Equity awards granted to employees are accounted for using the estimated grant date fair value. The Company estimates the fair value of employee stock options to purchase shares of Intel common stock at the date of grant using an option pricing model and values restricted stock units (“RSUs”) based on the market value of the underlying share of Intel common stock at the date of grant. The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense over the requisite service period of the award, net of estimated forfeitures.
Income Taxes
The Company computes the provision for income taxes under the asset and liability method prescribed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Guidance ASC 740, Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in these combined financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities, resulting from temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets
 
F-14

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
and liabilities, are measured as of the balance sheet date using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years the temporary differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The realization of deferred tax assets depends upon the existence of sufficient taxable income, of appropriate character, within the carryback or carryforward periods under the tax law in the applicable tax jurisdiction. Valuation allowances are established when the Company determines, based on available information, that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized. Significant judgment is required in determining whether valuation allowances should be established, as well as the amount of such allowances.
The Company records accruals for uncertain tax positions when the Company believes that it is more likely than not that a tax position will not be sustained on examination by tax authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The Company adjusts these accruals when facts and circumstances change, such as the closing of a tax audit or the refinement of an estimate.
Income taxes as presented herein attribute certain current and deferred income taxes of the Company’s Parent to the Company’s combined financial statements in a manner that is consistent with the asset and liability method.
During the years presented in the combined financial statements, certain components of the Company’s business operations were included in the consolidated U.S. domestic and certain foreign income tax returns filed by the Company’s Parent, where applicable. The Company also files certain foreign income tax returns on a separate basis, distinct from its Parent. The income tax provision included in the Company’s combined financial statements has been calculated using the separate return method as if the Company had filed its own tax returns. The Company will present tax loss carry-forward amounts that have not been utilized by the Parent only to the extent such tax attributes can be claimed on a separate income tax return as opposed to a consolidated income tax return filing with its Parent. Use of the separate return method may result in differences when amounts allocated to the Company’s separate income tax provision are compared to the Parent’s income tax provision.
Provision for warranties
The Company provides warranties for its products, which vary with respect to each contract and in accordance with the nature of each specific product. The warranty terms vary from one to three years, with the vast majority of the Company’s products being subject to a warranty period of three years. The Company estimates the costs that may be incurred under its warranty and records a liability in the amount of such costs at the time revenue is recognized. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary.
Provision for warranties is included in other current liabilities on the combined balance sheets. Provision for warranties as of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, as well as warranty expenses for the each of the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019, were not material.
Loss contingencies
The Company is currently involved in commercial claims within the ordinary course of business. The Company reviews the status of each matter and assesses its potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim or legal proceeding is considered probable and the loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company accrues a liability for the estimated loss. When accruing these costs, the Company recognizes an accrual for an amount within a range of loss that is the best estimate within the range. When no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other, the Company accrues for the minimum estimated loss within the range. The Company discloses contingencies when it believes that a loss is not probable, but reasonably possible.
Management believes that there are no current matters that would have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Legal fees are expensed as incurred.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Leases
The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases, which requires lessees to recognize leases on the combined balance sheets and disclose key information about leasing arrangements.
Leases primarily consist of real property and vehicles and are classified as operating leases with fixed payment terms. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease, or contains a lease, at inception and records the leases in these combined financial statements upon lease commencement, which is the date when the underlying asset is made available for use by the lessor. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are included in other long-term assets, other current liabilities, and other long-term liabilities on the combined balance sheet. Lease expenses for the operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and are included in operating expenses in the combined statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Options to extend or terminate the lease are taken into account when it is reasonably certain at the commencement date that such options will be exercised.
The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. The non-lease components are accounted for separately and not included in the leased assets and corresponding liabilities. On the commencement date, lease payments that include variable lease payments dependent on an index or a rate (such as the Consumer Price Index or a market interest rate), are initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date. Variable payments that depend on performance or use of the underlying asset are not included in the lease payments. Such variable payments are recognized in the combined statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs. These variable payment amounts were not material to the combined financial statements for the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019.
The interest rate used to determine the present value of the future lease payments is the Company’s incremental borrowing rate because the interest rate implicit in most of its leases is not readily determinable.
Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, which include short-term deposits, and trade accounts receivable.
The majority of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are invested in banks domiciled in the U.S., as well as in Israel. Generally, these cash equivalents may be redeemed upon demand. Short term bank deposits, included in cash and cash equivalents, are held in the aforementioned banks. Accordingly, management believes that these bank deposits have minimal credit risk.
The Company’s account receivables are derived primarily from sales to Tier 1 suppliers to the automotive manufacturing industry located mainly in the U.S., Europe, and China. Concentration of credit risk with respect to account receivables is mitigated by credit limits, ongoing credit evaluation, and account monitoring procedures. Credit is granted based on an evaluation of a customer’s financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required. Trade accounts receivable are typically due from customers within 30 to 60 days. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and has not experienced any material losses in the periods presented. See Note 12 related to customers that accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenue and accounts receivable balance for each of the years presented in these combined financial statements. The Company establishes credit losses accounts receivable by considering a number of factors, including the length of time accounts receivable are past due, the Company’s previous loss history from such customers, and the customers’ current ability to pay its obligation to the Company. As of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, the credit losses accounts receivable, which is determined with respect to specific debts that are doubtful of collection and netted against accounts receivable, was not material. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they are deemed uncollectible. For the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019, the charge-offs and recoveries in relation to the credit losses accounts were not material.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Customer concentration risk
The Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition for the foreseeable future will likely continue to depend on sales to a relatively small number of customers. In the future, these customers may decide not to purchase the Company’s products, may purchase fewer products than in previous years, or may alter their purchasing patterns. Further, the amount of revenue attributable to any single customer or customer concentration generally may fluctuate in any given period. In addition, a decline in the production levels of one or more of the Company’s major customers, particularly with respect to vehicle models for which the Company is a significant supplier, could reduce revenue. The loss of one or more key customers, a reduction in sales to any key customer or the Company’s inability to attract new significant customers could negatively impact revenue and adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. See Note 12 related to customers that accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenue and accounts receivable balance for each of the years presented in these combined financial statements.
Dependence on a single supplier risk
The Company purchases all its System on Chip (“EyeQ® SoC”) from a single supplier. Any issues that occur and persist in connection with the manufacture, delivery, quality, or cost of the assembly and testing of inventory could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.
COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected significant portions of our business and could have a continued adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. There is a significant constraint in the global supply of semiconductors. The COVID-19 pandemic led to an increase in the demand for consumer electronics and global semiconductor manufacturers allocated significant capacity to meet such demand. As global automakers resumed production in 2020 following shutdowns resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, semiconductor supply became further strained, and these factors, combined with the long lead times associated with the Company, have contributed to a shortage of semiconductors.
During the year ended December 25, 2021, the Company’s supplier was not able to meet demand of the Company for the EyeQ® SoC, causing a significant reduction in the inventory level of the Company, and the Company expects that it may continue to experience a shortfall of EyeQ® SoC during 2022. As the Company has entered fiscal 2022 with significantly lower inventories of its EyeQ® SoC resulting from the limited supply during the year ended December 25, 2021, it may be unable to offset future supply constraints through the use of inventory on hand. Since the EyeQ® SoC is the core of the ADAS and AV products, continued shortages in the supply of sufficient EyeQ® SoC to meet production needs may impair the Company’s ability to meet its customers’ requirements in a timely manner and may adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, to the extent that the global semiconductor shortage results in reduced production or production delays by automakers, those delays could result in reduced or delayed demand for the Company products. In addition, issues relating to the COVID-19 pandemic have led to port congestion and intermittent supplier shutdowns and delays in the delivery of critical components, resulting in additional expenses to expedite delivery of critical parts. Sustaining the Company’s production trajectory will require the readiness and solvency of its suppliers and vendors, a stable and motivated production workforce and ongoing government cooperation, including for travel and visa allowances, which many governments have restricted in connection with efforts to address the COVID-19 pandemic.
New Accounting pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements:
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASC 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected credit loss model and requires a financial asset measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The Company adopted ASC 326 in the first quarter of 2020 and there

was no material impact on the Company’s combined balance sheet and the combined statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) upon adoption.
In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-04, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by removing the requirement to perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation to compute the implied fair value of goodwill to measure impairment. Instead, any goodwill impairment will equal the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value carrying amount of goodwill. In addition, the guidance eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. This standard is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment test in years beginning on or after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2020 with no material impact on these combined financial statements.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Effective:
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides practical expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments in this ASU apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. ASU No. 2020-04 is effective through December 31, 2022. The Company will adopt this standard when LIBOR is discontinued, and all contracts will be renegotiated at that point. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this new standard will have a material impact on the Company’s combined financial statements and accompanying notes.
In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities About Government Assistance, which requires entities to provide disclosures on material government assistance transactions for annual reporting periods. The disclosures include information around the nature of the assistance, the related accounting policies used to account for government assistance, the effect of government assistance on the entity’s combined financial statements, and any significant terms and conditions of the agreements, including commitments and contingencies. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2022 and only impacts annual financial statement footnote disclosures. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this new standard will have a material impact on the Company’s combined financial statements and accompanying notes.

Substantially all of the Company’s property and equipment and long-lived assets were located in Israel as of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020.
Royalty bearing agreements
The Company has entered into a number of license and technology transfer agreements with third parties. The agreements allow the Company to utilize and leverage the third parties’ technology in order to integrate it into the Company’s products. In consideration thereof, the Company is obligated to pay royalties to each of the third parties, for each unit of the applicable integrated product sold to other parties. As a result, during the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019, the Company recorded expenses of approximately $7 million, $5 million, and $6 million, respectively. These expenses were classified as a component of cost of revenue.
NOTE 4   EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
In Israel
Severance
Israeli labor laws generally require severance payments upon dismissal of an employee or upon termination of employment in certain other circumstances. The following principal plans relate to the Company’s employees in Israel:
Severance pay liability with respect to Israeli employees is calculated pursuant to Israeli Severance Pay Law based on the most recent salary of the employees, multiplied by the number of years of employment as of the period-end date. The Company records an expense for the increase in its severance liability, net of earnings (losses) from the related severance pay funds. The liabilities are presented on an undiscounted basis and included on the combined balance sheets as a long-term employee benefit. Severance pay liabilities as of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020 were $68 million and $59 million, respectively.
The Company’s liability for all of its Israeli employees is covered for by monthly deposits with severance pay funds. The value of the deposited funds is based on the cash surrender value of these policies and includes earnings (or losses) accumulated through the balance sheet date. The deposited funds may be withdrawn only upon the fulfillment of the obligations pursuant to Israeli Severance Pay Law or labor agreements. Severance pay funds, which are included in other long-term assets, were $58 million and $48 million as of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, respectively.
Part of the Company’s liability for severance pay is covered by the provisions of Section 14 of the Israeli Severance Pay Law (“Section 14”). Under Section 14, employees are entitled to monthly deposits, at

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
a rate of 8.33% of their monthly salary, contributed by the Company on their behalf to their insurance funds. Payments by the Company in accordance with Section 14 release the Company from any future severance payments in respect of those employees. As a result, the Company does not recognize any liability for severance pay due to these employees under Section 14 and the related deposits are not recorded as assets on the combined balance sheets.
Other long-term employee benefits
Intel has a defined benefit plan for an adaptation grant for certain Intel aligned employees. The adaptation grant includes a salary for three months and may be paid to those employees upon retirement. The benefits under the adaptation grant are calculated based on years of service and pensionable earnings. The vested benefit obligation for a defined benefit plan is the actuarial present value of the vested benefits to which the employee is currently entitled based on the employee’s expected date of separation or retirement.
For the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019, the periodic benefit costs were $2 million, $1 million, and $1 million, respectively, the discount rates were 3.1%, 2.9%, and 2.6%, respectively, and the assumed rates of compensation increase were 4.0%, 4.2%, and 3.9%, respectively.
Projected benefit obligations as of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020 were $23 million and $18 million, respectively. The accumulated other comprehensive income related to this benefit was not material for all periods presented.
Non-Israeli Defined Contribution Plans
Most of the Company’s non-Israeli subsidiaries provide defined contribution plans for the benefit of their employees. The plans primarily provide for Company matching contributions based upon a percentage of the employees’ contributions. The Company’s contributions for the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019 under such plans were not material.
NOTE 5   LEASES
The Company has entered into various non-cancellable operating lease agreements for its main offices and vehicles.
The lease term of the majority of the Company’s operating leases varies from three to five years. Some of the Company’s leases include options to extend the lease term for up to five years. For purposes of calculating lease liabilities, lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options.
Lease expenses for operating lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Certain operating leases provide for annual increases to lease payments based on an index or rate. The Company calculates the present value of future lease payments based on the index or rate at the lease commencement date for new leases commencing after January 1, 2019. Differences between the estimated lease liability and actual payment are expensed as incurred and are not material for all periods presented. The lease agreements generally do not contain any residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants. Operating lease expense for the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019 were $11 million, $9 million, and $8 million, respectively, and operating cash outflows from operating leases were $12 million, $10 million, and $9 million, respectively. The Company does not have any finance leases.

In the tax year ended December 25, 2021, Mobileye’s Israeli operations became taxable in the U.S. as a branch entity. As a result, certain operations are taxed both in the U.S. and locally in Israel. For U.S. tax purposes, there were favorable current tax deductions that we could not benefit from due to a valuation allowance position. This resulted in a residual tax expense associated with a deferred tax liability recorded for goodwill.
In Israel, the Company benefits from a reduced tax rate under the Special Preferred Technological Enterprise status under the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959, or the Investment Law.
Under the Investment Law, income derived by Preferred Companies from ‘Special Preferred Technological Enterprises’ (as defined in the 2017 Amendment), would be subject to 6% tax rate on income deriving from intellectual property, subject to a number of conditions being fulfilled, including a minimal amount or ratio of annual research and development expenditures and research and development employees, as well as having at least 25% of annual income derived from exports. Special Preferred Technological Enterprise is defined as an enterprise which meets the aforementioned conditions and for which total consolidated revenue of its Parent company and all subsidiaries are more than ILS10 billion.
Deferred income taxes
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are classified as long term on the combined balance sheets.

In the tax year ending December 25, 2021, Mobileye’s Israeli operations became taxable in the U.S. as a branch entity. As a result, the Company recognized the tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for U.S. income tax purposes which resulted in a net deferred tax liability after evaluation of deferred tax assets for realizability.

For purposes of these combined financial statements, the income tax expense and deferred tax balances have been prepared as if the Company filed income tax returns on the separate return method. Net operating losses generated by the Company that have been utilized as part of the Intel consolidated tax return filing have not been reflected in these combined financial statements based on a return reality methodology since they will not be available to offset taxable income of the Company in future periods. The Company had U.S. net operating loss carryforwards of $275 million for the year ended December 25, 2021, which were generated in a separate tax return years before becoming eligible for consolidation with Intel (separate return losses) on July 17, 2021.
The Company has generated a non-U.S. net operating loss carryforward of $131 million for the year ended December 25, 2021. This net operating loss carryforward amount relates primarily to operations in Israel and has an indefinite carry-forward period.
Realization of deferred tax assets is based on the Company’s judgment and various factors including reversal of deferred tax liabilities, the ability to generate future taxable income in jurisdictions where such assets have arisen, and potential tax planning strategies. A valuation allowance is recorded in order to reduce

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
the deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized in the future. The valuation allowance for the years presented are primarily related to U.S. branch deferred tax assets not currently expected to be realized given that the Company has sustained recent losses based on the separate return method.
The Company intends to indefinitely reinvest undistributed foreign earnings into foreign operations and expects future U.S. cash generated to be sufficient to meet future U.S. cash needs. Therefore, the Company has not provided for deferred income taxes on undistributed foreign earnings. In making this determination, the Company evaluates both near-term and long-term fiscal needs of its U.S. domestic operations and its foreign subsidiaries. The estimation of the unrecognized deferred tax liability on undistributed foreign earnings is not practicable for the combined balance sheets dates presented.

As of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, the Company had accrued $1 million and $1 million, respectively, for interest and penalties payable related to uncertain tax positions. The allowance for uncertain tax positions is included in other current and long-term liabilities on the combined balance sheets. The tax expenses related to uncertain tax positions included penalties and interest for the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019, were not material.
All the balance of unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would reduce the Company’s annual effective tax rate.
There are no material changes anticipated in the uncertain tax positions in the next twelve months, except in the case of settlements with tax authorities, the likelihood and timing of which is difficult to estimate, and in the lapse of statutes of limitations. The Company estimates that the unrecognized tax benefits as of December 25, 2021 could decrease by as much as $2 million in the next 12 months due to lapses in statutes of limitations.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S., Israel, and in other certain foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. and Israeli tax examinations for years prior to 2018 and 2016, respectively.
NOTE 8   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company has entered into a series of related party arrangements with Intel. The arrangements were as follows:
Equity Conversion Arrangements for Purposes of Funding Acquisitions
For purposes of the Mobileye Acquisition, Intel entered into a loan agreement in 2017 to make available to the Company up to an aggregate principal amount of $20 billion (the “2017 Loan”). The amount of the 2017 Loan was denominated in U.S. dollars and the interest rate was based on the short term quarterly Applicable Federal Rate published by the Internal Revenue Service.
In 2019, the outstanding principal balance of $15.3 billion on the 2017 Loan was converted to equity as a contribution by Intel to the Company, thereby canceling the principal. In 2020, $679 million of accrued interest was converted to equity as a contribution by Intel to the Company.
 
F-27

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
There was no outstanding principal or interest balance as of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020. Interest expense recognized by the Company totaled $0 million, $1 million, and $257 million for the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019, respectively.
Loan arrangements
The Company entered into a series of bilateral lending/borrowing arrangements with Intel. The purposes of the facilities are to enable bilateral cash movements between the parties. The arrangements are denominated in U.S dollars. Interest rates unless otherwise specified are based on three-month LIBOR.
In 2017, Intel along with the Company, entered into a bilateral lending/borrowing arrangement (“Arrangement 1”) to make available to either party up to an aggregate principal amount of $1.5 billion. Arrangement 1 has a mechanism of automatic renewal for additional periods of one year. In 2021, Arrangement 1 was amended to increase the capacity from $1.5 billion to $1.8 billion, and the maturity date was extended to December 2022.
In 2017, Intel along with the Company, entered into a bilateral lending/borrowing arrangement (“Arrangement 2”) to make cash available to either party up to an aggregate principal amount of $750 million. Arrangement 2 matures September 2022 with a mechanism of automatic renewal of Arrangement 1 for additional periods of one year.
In 2021, the Company and Intel entered into a bilateral lending/borrowing arrangement (“Arrangement 3”) to make cash available to either party up to an aggregate principal amount of $100 million. Arrangement 3 has a maturity date of July 2022 with the option to extend Arrangement 3 for an additional period of one year. The interest rate is based on an applicable margin of 0.0% with an option for Intel to elect to increase or decrease the applicable margin on or after the first day of the 2022 fiscal year. If the election to increase the applicable margin is applied, the spread adjustment would be reflective of the difference between three-month LIBOR and the term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”).
The total outstanding balance of the aforementioned loan arrangements is approximately $1.3 billion, which is reflected in current assets as a related party loan as of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020 based on the maturity date as of each balance sheet period. Interest income recognized by the Company totaled $3 million, $6 million, and $22 million for the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019, respectively.
Stock Compensation Recharge Agreement
The Company entered into a stock compensation recharge agreement with Intel, which requires the Company to reimburse Intel for certain amounts relating to the value of share-based compensation provided to the Company’s employees for RSUs or stock options exercisable in Intel stock. The liability associated with the stock compensation recharge agreement that is reflected on the combined balance sheets, under related party payable was approximately $162 million and $0 million as of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, respectively. As for the inclusion of the Company’s employees in Intel’s equity incentive plan, see Note 6.
Hedging services
Intel centrally hedges its exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company entered into a hedging services agreement with Intel, to which, the Company is entitled to a certain allocation of the gains and losses arising from the execution of the hedging contracts.
Development Services and Lease
Intel entered into agreements with the Company to provide certain development services, including research, technical work on technology, products and solutions, construction and ancillary administrative services and use of space in Intel’s building in Israel. The Company paid for these services on a quarterly basis. These costs are included in the combined statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) primarily on a specific and direct attribution basis, as described in Note 2.

Other services to a related party
The Company reimbursed its Chief Executive Officer for reasonable travel related expenses incurred while conducting business on behalf of the Company. For the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019, travel related reimbursements were $1.1 million, $0.5 million and $1.2 million, respectively.
NOTE 9   BUSINESS COMBINATION
In May 2020, Moovit was acquired for total consideration of $915 million. An amount of $90 million was retained to be paid to Moovit’s former shareholders after 18 months in order to cover any potential indemnities that arise in the first 18 months post-acquisition. It was determined that the payment of all the deferred acquisition consideration to Moovit’s former stockholders was probable, and therefore, the total of $90 million was included in purchase consideration as a liability incurred to the sellers. This deferred acquisition consideration was fully paid to Moovit’s former shareholders in 2021. Total consideration includes the previously held ownership by Intel of 6% of Moovit originally acquired in 2018 and was contributed by Intel to the Company.
The fair value of goodwill and intangible assets recognized in connection with the Moovit acquisition was $604 million and $340 million, respectively. The intangible assets were comprised of $286 million of developed technology and $54 million of customer relationships and brands. The goodwill arising from the Moovit Acquisition is attributed to synergies and benefits that are expected to be generated from the collaboration between Mobileye and Moovit. Substantially all of the goodwill will not be deductible for tax purposes in Israel. The acquisition-related developed technology is primarily related to Moovit’s monthly active user base and application platform. The acquisition related costs were not material to these combined financial statements.
Pro forma information has not been included for the Moovit Acquisition given the insignificant impact on the Company’s results of operation for the years ended December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019.
NOTE 10   GOODWILL
The following table presents the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by segment for the years ended December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020. The balance attributed to Mobileye as of December 28, 2019 represents the goodwill arising from the Mobileye Acquisition as described in Note 1.

NOTE 12   SEGMENT INFORMATION
An operating segment is defined as a component of an enterprise for which discrete financial information is available and is reviewed regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), or decision-making group, to evaluate performance and make operating decisions. The Company has identified its CODM as the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”).
The Company’s organizational structure and management reporting supports two operating segments: Mobileye and Moovit. The CODM evaluates performance, makes operating decisions and allocates resources based on the financial data of these operating segments. Operating segments do not record inter-segment revenue.
Mobileye is the Company’s only reportable operating segment and Moovit is presented within “Other” as per ASC 280, Segment Reporting. Segment performance (which is the operating income reported) excludes the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets. The measure of assets has not been disclosed for each segment as it is not regularly reviewed by the CODM.
The accounting policies of the individual segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 2 to the combined financial statements.

MOBILEYE GROUP
Notes to the Condensed Combined Financial Statements (Unaudited)
NOTE 1 — GENERAL
Background
Mobileye Group is a leader in the development and deployment of advanced driver assistance systems (“ADAS”) and autonomous driving technologies and solutions. Mobileye Group combines the operations of Cyclops Holdings LLC, Mobileye B.V. and its subsidiaries (“Mobileye”), GG Acquisition Ltd. and the Moovit App Global Ltd. and its subsidiaries (“Moovit”) and certain Intel employees mainly in research and development (the “Intel Aligned Groups”) (collectively, the “Company”, “we”, and “our”).
The Company operates as a combination of wholly-owned businesses of Intel Corporation (“Intel or the “Parent”).
Mobileye operates as a component of Intel, which acquired a majority stake in Mobileye in August 2017 (the “Mobileye Acquisition”). The remaining issued and outstanding shares of Mobileye were acquired by Intel during 2018. The Company is building a robust portfolio of end-to-end ADAS and autonomous driving solutions to provide the capabilities required for the future of autonomous driving, leveraging a comprehensive suite of purpose-built software and hardware technologies.
Moovit, a leading urban mobility app and mobility-as-a-service (“MaaS”) solutions provider also operates as a component of Intel upon acquisition of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Moovit in May 2020 (the “Moovit Acquisition”).
In December 2021, Intel announced plans to pursue an initial public offering (“IPO”) of Mobileye Group. In January 2022, Intel incorporated a new legal entity, Mobileye Global Inc., with the intent to contribute the Company to Mobileye Global Inc. and be able to offer newly issued shares of common stock of Mobileye Global Inc. in an IPO. Intel expects to retain majority ownership of the Company following the completion of the IPO.
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
These condensed combined financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed combined financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s annual audited combined financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial information.
The results of operations for the three months ended April 2, 2022 shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending 2022. The condensed combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited combined financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 25, 2021.
The condensed combined financial statements and accompanying notes have been derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of Intel and are presented as if the Company had been operating as a stand-alone company for all periods presented. The assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses directly attributable to the Company’s operations, including the acquired goodwill and intangible assets, have been reflected in these condensed combined financial statements on a historical cost basis, as included in the consolidated financial statements of Intel.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
The Company utilized the Intel Aligned Groups mainly in research and development activities. The associated costs of the Intel Aligned Groups are reflected on a specific attribution basis in the condensed combined statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Intel Aligned Groups also participated in various Intel compensation and benefit plans. Portions of those plans’ costs were based on actual headcount and included in these condensed combined financial statements. These costs are not necessarily indicative of costs that would have been incurred had the Company operated on a stand-alone basis.
The condensed combined statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) also include allocations of general corporate expenses from Intel. These expenses have been allocated to the Company on the basis of direct usage when identifiable or allocated on the basis of headcount. Management of the Company and Parent considered the basis on which the expenses have been allocated to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of the services provided to or the benefit received by the Company during the periods presented.
Mobileye largely continued to operate as a standalone operation and had not been fully integrated into Intel, with limited use of corporate overhead functions. The allocated costs for the periods presented in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) were not material. The allocations may not be reflective of the expenses that would have incurred had the Company operated as a stand-alone company for the periods presented. These costs also may not be indicative of the expenses that the Company will incur in the future or would have incurred if the Company had obtained these services from a third party. Actual costs that may have been incurred if the Company had operated as a stand-alone company would depend on a number of factors, including the chosen organizational structure, the outsourcing of certain functions, and other strategic decisions.
As Mobileye Group was not historically held by a single legal entity, total parent net investment is shown in lieu of equity in the condensed combined financial statements and represents Intel’s total interest in the recorded net assets of Mobileye Group. All intercompany transactions within the combined businesses of the Company have been eliminated. Transactions between the Company and Intel, arising from arrangements with Intel and other similar related-party transactions, were considered to be effectively settled in the condensed combined financial statements at the time the transactions were recorded, unless otherwise noted. The total net effect of the settlement of these transactions was reflected within parent net investment as a component of equity in the condensed combined balance sheets and within net transfers from Parent as a financing activity in the condensed combined statements of cash flows, unless otherwise noted.
Net loss per share data has not been presented in the condensed combined financial statements because Mobileye Group did not operate as a separate legal entity with its own capital structure during the periods presented.
There have been no material changes in our significant accounting policies as described in our combined financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 25, 2021, other than described below regarding deferred offering costs and income tax. For further detail, see note 2 in the audited combined financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 25, 2021.
Deferred Offering Costs
Deferred offering costs consisting of legal, accounting and other fees and costs incurred that are directly related to the proposed IPO, are capitalized and recorded on the condensed combined balance sheet. These deferred costs will be reclassified to shareholders’ equity upon the consummation of the proposed public offering and recorded against the proceeds received. If the IPO is aborted, all the deferred offering costs will be expensed. The Company capitalized $10 million and zero of deferred offering costs within other long-term assets, in the condensed combined balance sheet as of April 2, 2022, and December 25, 2021, respectively. Transaction costs which are not directly related to the proposed public offering are expensed as incurred within general and administrative expenses and are not material for all periods presented.

Fair value measurement
The Company measures its investments in short term deposits classified as cash equivalents at fair value on a recurring basis. Due to the short maturity of these items, the carrying value is deemed to approximate to fair value. Short term deposits included in cash and cash equivalents were $299 million and $209 million as of April 2, 2022 and December 25, 2021, respectively.
The carrying amounts of the related party loan, trade accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of their generally short maturities.
The Company also has goodwill and acquisition-related in-process research and development assets that are required to be recorded at fair value only if an impairment is recognized in the current year.
Research and development, net
Research and development expenses are expensed as incurred, and consist primarily of personnel, facilities, equipment, and supplies for research and development activities.
The Company occasionally enters into best-efforts nonrefundable, non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) arrangements pursuant to which the Company is reimbursed for a portion of the research and development expenses attributable to specific development programs. The Company does not receive any additional compensation or royalties upon completion of such projects and the potential customer does not commit to purchase the resulting product in the future. The participation reimbursement received by the Company does not depend on whether there are future benefits from the project. All intellectual property generated from these arrangements is exclusively owned by the Company.
Participations in expenses for research and development projects are recognized on the basis of the costs incurred and are netted against research and development expenses in the condensed combined statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Research and development reimbursements of $14 million, and $11 million were offset against research and development costs in the three months ended April 2, 2022 and March 27, 2021, respectively.
Derivatives and hedging
Beginning in 2021, as part of Intel’s corporate hedging program, Intel is hedging forecast cash flows denominated in Israel Shekels (“ILS”) related to the Company. ILS is the largest operating expense currency of the Company. Intel combines all of its ILS exposures, and as part of Intel’s hedging program enters into hedging contracts to hedge Intel’s combined ILS exposure. Gains and losses attributed to these condensed combined financial statements are recorded under accumulated other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The amount of hedging gain that was reclassified to the condensed combined statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended April 2, 2022, and March 27, 2021 was approximately $2 million and $1 million, respectively.
Income Tax
The provision for income tax consists of income taxes in the various jurisdictions where the Company is subject to taxation, primarily the United States and Israel. For interim periods, the Company recognizes
 
F-40

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
an income tax benefit (provision) based on the estimated annual effective tax rate, calculated on a worldwide consolidated basis, expected for the entire year. The estimated annual effective tax rate is also influenced by a valuation allowance in respect of tax assets not currently expected to be realized due to recent losses sustained. The Company applies this rate to the year to date pre-tax income. If the Company expects taxable losses in any specific taxing jurisdiction and no benefit can be realized for the year, those losses are excluded from the calculation of the worldwide estimated annual effective tax rate and any associated tax expense for the jurisdiction is recorded separately.
Use of estimates
The preparation of condensed combined financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts and events reported and disclosed in the combined financial statements and accompanying notes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions and factors, including the current economic environment, that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates, judgments, and assumptions. The most significant estimates and assumptions relate to recognition and useful lives of intangible assets, impairment assessment of intangible assets and goodwill, and income taxes.
Loss contingencies
Management believes that there are no current matters that would have a material effect on the Company’s condensed combined balance sheets, statement of operations or cash flows. Legal fees are expensed as incurred.
Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, which include short-term deposits, and trade accounts receivable.
The majority of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are invested in banks domiciled in the U.S., as well as in Israel. Generally, these cash equivalents may be redeemed upon demand. Short term bank deposits, included in cash and cash equivalents, are held in the aforementioned banks. Accordingly, management believes that these bank deposits have minimal credit risk.
The Company’s accounts receivable are derived primarily from sales to Tier 1 suppliers to the automotive manufacturing industry located mainly in the U.S., Europe, and China. Concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is mitigated by credit limits, ongoing credit evaluation, and account monitoring procedures. Credit is granted based on an evaluation of a customer’s financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required. Trade accounts receivable are typically due from customers within 30 to 60 days. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and has not experienced any material losses in the periods presented. The Company establishes credit losses accounts receivable by considering a number of factors, including the length of time accounts receivable are past due, the Company’s previous loss history from such customers, and the customers’ current ability to pay its obligation to the Company. As of April 2, 2022 and December 25, 2021, the credit losses in respect of accounts receivable, which are determined with respect to specific debts that are doubtful of collection and netted against accounts receivable, were not material. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they are deemed uncollectible. For the three months ended April 2, 2022 and March 27, 2021, the charge-offs and recoveries in relation to the credit losses accounts were not material.
Customer concentration risk
The Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition for the foreseeable future will likely continue to depend on sales to a relatively small number of customers. In the future, these customers may decide not to purchase the Company’s products, may purchase fewer products than in previous years, or may alter their purchasing patterns. Further, the amount of revenue attributable to any single customer or
 
F-41

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
customer concentration generally may fluctuate in any given period. In addition, a decline in the production levels of one or more of the Company’s major customers, particularly with respect to vehicle models for which the Company is a significant supplier, could reduce revenue. The loss of one or more key customers, a reduction in sales to any key customer or the Company’s inability to attract new significant customers could negatively impact revenue and adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. See Note 8 related to customers that accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenue and accounts receivable for each of the periods presented in these condensed combined financial statements.
Dependence on a single supplier risk
The Company purchases all its System on Chip (“EyeQ® SoC”) from a single supplier. Any issues that occur and persist in connection with the manufacture, delivery, quality, or cost of the assembly and testing of inventory could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.
COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected significant portions of the Company’s business and could have a continued adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. There is a significant constraint in the global supply of semiconductors. The COVID-19 pandemic led to an increase in the demand for consumer electronics and global semiconductor manufacturers allocated significant capacity to meet such demand. As global automakers resumed production in 2020 following shutdowns resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, semiconductor supply became further strained, and these factors, combined with the long lead times associated with the Company, have contributed to a shortage of semiconductors.
During the fiscal year ended December 25, 2021, the Company’s supplier was not able to meet demand of the Company for the EyeQ® SoC, causing a significant reduction in the inventory level of the Company, and the Company expects that it may continue to experience a shortfall of EyeQ® SoC during 2022. As the Company has entered fiscal 2022 with significantly lower inventories of its EyeQ® SoC resulting from the limited supply during the year ended December 25, 2021, it may be unable to offset future supply constraints through the use of inventory on hand. Since the EyeQ® SoC is the core of the ADAS and AV products, continued shortages in the supply of sufficient EyeQ® SoC to meet production needs may impair the Company’s ability to meet its customers’ requirements in a timely manner and may adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, to the extent that the global semiconductor shortage results in reduced production or production delays by automakers, those delays could result in reduced or delayed demand for the Company products. In addition, issues relating to the COVID-19 pandemic have led to port congestion and intermittent supplier shutdowns and delays in the delivery of critical components, resulting in additional expenses to expedite delivery of critical parts. Sustaining the Company’s production trajectory will require the readiness and solvency of its suppliers and vendors, a stable and motivated production workforce and ongoing government cooperation, including for travel and visa allowances, which many governments have restricted in connection with efforts to address the COVID-19 pandemic.
New Accounting pronouncements:
1)
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities About Government Assistance, which requires entities to provide disclosures on material government assistance transactions for annual reporting periods. The disclosures include information around the nature of the assistance, the related accounting policies used to account for government assistance, the effect of government assistance on the entity’s condensed combined financial statements, and any significant terms and conditions of the agreements, including commitments and contingencies. The new standard can be applied prospectively or retrospectively, was adopted by the Company, and only impacts annual financial statement footnote disclosures. The impact of adoption of this standard is immaterial.
 
F-42

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides practical expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments in this ASU apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. ASU No. 2020-04 is effective and can be applied prospectively through December 31, 2022. The Company has completed its evaluation of significant contracts. The Company has adopted the ASU in these unaudited condensed combined financial statements. There was no material impact on these unaudited condensed combined financial statements.

Unrecognized expenses
As of April 2, 2022, the unrecognized compensation costs related to stock options and RSUs granted under the Intel Corporation 2006 Equity Incentive Plan were $275 million, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.43 years.
NOTE 5 — INCOME TAXES
The Company’s quarterly benefit (provision) for income taxes and the estimates of its annual effective tax rate are subject to fluctuation due to several factors, principally including variability in overall pre-tax income and the mix of paying for certain components to which such income relates.
For purposes of these condensed combined financial statements, the income tax expense and deferred tax balances have been prepared as if the Company filed income tax returns on the separate return method.
In the three months ended April 2, 2022 the Company accrued a withholding tax expense of $14 million related to a dividend distribution in the current period between entities within the Mobileye Group (see note 9 regarding a dividend distribution to Intel after balance sheet date). The effective tax rate for both periods was significantly influenced by valuation allowances related to deferred tax assets not currently expected to be realized given that the Company has sustained recent losses based on the separate return method.
NOTE 6 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company has entered into a series of related party arrangements with Intel. The arrangements were as follows:
Loan arrangements
The Company entered into a series of bilateral lending/borrowing arrangements with Intel. The purposes of the facilities are to enable bilateral cash movements between the parties. The arrangements are denominated in U.S dollars. Interest rates unless otherwise specified are based on three-month LIBOR.
In 2017, Intel along with the Company, entered into a bilateral lending/borrowing arrangement (“Arrangement 1”) to make available to either party up to an aggregate principal amount of $1.5 billion. Arrangement 1 has a mechanism of automatic renewal for additional periods of one year. In 2021, Arrangement 1 was amended to increase the capacity from $1.5 billion to $1.8 billion, and the maturity date was extended to December 2022.
In 2017, Intel along with the Company, entered into a bilateral lending/borrowing arrangement (“Arrangement 2”) to make cash available to either party up to an aggregate principal amount of $750 million. Arrangement 2 matures September 2022 with a mechanism of automatic renewal of Arrangement 1 for additional periods of one year.
 
F-45

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
In 2021, the Company and Intel entered into a bilateral lending/borrowing arrangement (“Arrangement 3”) to make cash available to either party up to an aggregate principal amount of $100 million. Arrangement 3 has a maturity date of July 2022 with the option to extend Arrangement 3 for an additional period of one year. The interest rate is based on an applicable margin of 0.0% with an option for Intel to elect to increase or decrease the applicable margin on or after the first day of the 2022 fiscal year. If the election to increase the applicable margin is applied, the spread adjustment would be reflective of the difference between three-month LIBOR and the term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”).
During March 2022, Arrangement 2 and Arrangement 3 were amended to increase the aggregate principal amount available to draw from $750 million to $1.0 billion and from $100 million to $500 million, respectively. In addition, due to reference rate reform, Arrangement 1 and Arrangement 2 were amended to change the interest rate from LIBOR based to SOFR based. The modification was accounted for as if it was not substantial in accordance with the expedient for ASC 470 and an updated effective interest rate was calculated to reflect the change in terms. There was no gain or loss recognized for the three months ended April 2, 2022.
The total outstanding balance of the aforementioned loan arrangements was approximately $1.1 billion and $1.3 billion as of April 2, 2022 and December 25, 2021 respectively, and is reflected in current assets as a related party loan based on the maturity date as of each balance sheet period (accumulated interest is presented within other current assets). Interest income recognized by the Company totaled $1.2 million, and $0.8 million for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and March 27, 2021, respectively.
See note 9 for information regarding a loan agreement with Intel signed after the balance sheet date.
Stock Compensation Recharge Agreement
The Company entered into a stock compensation recharge agreement with Intel, which requires the Company to reimburse Intel for certain amounts relating to the value of share-based compensation provided to the Company’s employees for RSUs or stock options exercisable in Intel stock. The liability associated with the stock compensation recharge agreement that is reflected on the condensed combined balance sheets, under related party payable was approximately $5 million and $162 million as of April 2, 2022 and December 25, 2021, respectively. As for the inclusion of the Company’s employees in Intel’s equity incentive plan, see Note 4.
Hedging services
Intel centrally hedges its exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates. At the beginning of 2021, the Company entered into a hedging services agreement with Intel, pursuant to which the Company is entitled to a certain allocation of the gains and obligated to a certain allocation of the losses arising from the execution of the hedging contracts.
Development Services and Lease
Intel entered into agreements with the Company to provide certain development services, including research, technical work on technology, products and solutions, construction and ancillary administrative services and use of space in Intel’s building in Israel. The Company paid for these services on a quarterly basis. These costs are included in the condensed combined statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) primarily on a specific and direct attribution basis.
Other services to a related party
The Company reimbursed its Chief Executive Officer for reasonable travel related expenses incurred while conducting business on behalf of the Company. For the three months ended April 2, 2022 and March 27, 2021, there were no travel related reimbursements.

NOTE 8 — SEGMENT INFORMATION
An operating segment is defined as a component of an enterprise for which discrete financial information is available and is reviewed regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), or decision-making group, to evaluate performance and make operating decisions. The Company has identified its CODM as the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”).
The Company’s organizational structure and management reporting supports two operating segments: Mobileye and Moovit. The CODM evaluates performance, makes operating decisions and allocates resources based on the financial data of these operating segments. Operating segments do not record inter-segment revenue.
Mobileye is the Company’s only reportable operating segment and Moovit is presented within “Other” as per ASC 280, Segment Reporting. Segment performance (which is the operating income reported) excludes the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets. The measure of assets has not been disclosed for each segment as it is not regularly reviewed by the CODM.
The accounting policies of the individual segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 2 to the audited combined financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 25, 2021.

NOTE 9 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The condensed combined financial statements of the Company are derived from the consolidated financial statements of Intel, which were previously issued for the three months ended April 2, 2022 on April 29, 2022. Accordingly, the Company has evaluated transactions or other events for consideration as recognized subsequent events in these condensed combined financial statements through April 29, 2022.

Note”). The Dividend Note is scheduled to mature on April 21, 2025 and accrues interest at a rate equal to 1.26% per annum, such interest to accrue quarterly. Prior to June 30, 2024, such interest will be paid by being automatically added to the outstanding principal amount of the loan and will thereafter be payable quarterly in cash in arrears and shall also be payable upon any prepayment, whether in whole or in part, to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid and upon maturity. Under the Dividend Note, Mobileye Group has the right, at its option, on any business day, to prepay the loan, including principal and any accrued interest thereon, in whole or in part without premium or penalty. The Company intends to use a portion of the net proceeds that it receives from this offering to repay indebtedness under the Dividend Note.
On May 12, 2022, Mobileye Group declared and paid a dividend in an aggregate amount of $336 million to Intel, net of $14 million of cash paid to tax authorities to settle related tax obligations.
On May 31, 2022, we entered into an agreement with Intel pursuant to which we legally purchased from Intel 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of the Moovit entities for an aggregate amount of $900 million. Moovit operations is already reflected as part of the Mobileye Group in these condensed combined financial statements as further detailed in note 1.

Item 14.   Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with any threatened, pending or completed actions, suits or proceedings in which such person is made a party by reason of such person being or having been a director, officer, employee or agent to the Registrant. The DGCL provides that Section 145 is not exclusive of other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. The Registrant’s certificate of incorporation provides for indemnification by the Registrant of members of its board of directors, members of committees of its board of directors and of other committees of the Registrant, and its executive officers, and allows the Registrant to provide indemnification for its other officers and its agents and employees, and those serving another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise at the request of the Registrant, in each case to the maximum extent permitted by the DGCL.
Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (1) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases, redemptions or other distributions or (4) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. The Registrant’s certificate of incorporation provides for such limitation of liability.
The Registrant has also entered into separate indemnification agreements with each of its directors and officers which are in addition to the Registrant’s indemnification obligations under its certificate of incorporation. These indemnification agreements may require the Registrant, among other things, to indemnify its directors and officers against expenses and liabilities that may arise by reason of their status as directors and officers, subject to certain exceptions. These indemnification agreements may also require the
 
II-1

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Registrant to advance any expenses incurred by its directors and officers as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified and to obtain and maintain directors’ and officers’ insurance.
The Registrant maintains standard policies of insurance under which coverage is provided (a) to its directors and officers against loss arising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act and (b) to the Registrant with respect to payments which may be made by the Registrant to such officers and directors pursuant to the above indemnification provision or otherwise as a matter of law.
The proposed form of underwriting agreement filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Registration Statement provides for indemnification of directors and officers of the Registrant by the underwriters against certain liabilities.
Item 15.   Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.
On January 21, 2022, in connection with the formation of Mobileye Global Inc., we sold 100 shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, to Intel Overseas Funding Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Intel Corporation, at par value for an aggregate purchase price of $1.00 pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. We intend to effect a recapitalization in connection with the Reorganization.

Financial Statement Schedules
No financial statement schedules are provided because the information called for is not applicable or is shown in the financial statements or notes thereto.
Item 17.   Undertakings.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions referenced in Item 14 of this registration statement or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered hereunder, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
1)
For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in the form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b) (1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective; and
2)
For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at the time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

ARTICLE I

 

OFFICES

 

Section 1.                Registered Office. The registered office of the Corporation shall be 251 Little Falls Drive, in the City of Wilmington, County of New Castle, State of Delaware, 19808.

 

Section 2.                Other Offices. The Corporation may also have offices at such other places, both within and without the State of Delaware, as the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) may from time to time determine.

 

ARTICLE II

 

MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS

 

Section 1.                Place of Meetings. Meetings of the stockholders for the election of directors or for any other purpose shall be held at such time and place, either within or without the State of Delaware, as shall be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, determine that a meeting of the stockholders shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication in the manner authorized by Section 211 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”).

 

Section 2.                Annual Meetings. The Annual Meeting of Stockholders for the election of directors shall be held on such date and at such time as shall be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors. Any other proper business may be transacted at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

 

Section 3.                Special Meetings. Unless otherwise required by law or by the certificate of incorporation of the Corporation, as amended and restated from time to time (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), Special Meetings of Stockholders, for any purpose or purposes, may be called by either (i) the Chair of the Board of Directors, if there be one, or (ii) the President, (iii) any Vice President, if there be one, (iv) the Secretary or (v) any Assistant Secretary, if there be one, and shall be called by any such officer at the request in writing of (i) the Board of Directors, (ii) a committee of the Board of Directors that has been duly designated by the Board of Directors and whose powers and authority include the power to call such meetings or (iii) stockholders owning a majority of the capital stock of the Corporation issued and outstanding and entitled to vote on the matter for which such Special Meeting of Stockholders is called. Such request shall state the purpose or purposes of the proposed meeting. At a Special Meeting of Stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall be specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto).

 

 

 

 

Section 4.                Notice. Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a notice of the meeting, in the form of a writing or electronic transmission, shall be given which shall state the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting, the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting, if such date is different from the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of such meeting and, in the case of a Special Meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise required by law, notice of any meeting shall be given not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of such meeting.

 

Section 5.                Adjournments and Postponements. Any meeting of the stockholders may be adjourned or postponed from time to time by the chair of such meeting or by the Board of Directors, without the need for approval thereof by stockholders to reconvene or convene, respectively at the same or some other place. Notice need not be given of any such adjourned or postponed meeting if the time and place, if any, thereof, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned or postponed meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken or, with respect to a postponed meeting, are publicly announced. At the adjourned or postponed meeting, the Corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment or postponement is for more than thirty (30) days, notice of the adjourned or postponed meeting in accordance with the requirements of Section 4 hereof shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. If, after the adjournment or postponement, a new record date for stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned or postponed meeting, the Board of Directors shall fix a new record date for notice of such adjourned or postponed meeting in accordance with Section 11 hereof, and shall give notice of the adjourned or postponed meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such adjourned or postponed meeting as of the record date fixed for notice of such adjourned or postponed meeting.

 

Section 6.                Quorum. Unless otherwise required by the DGCL or other applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of a majority of the Corporation’s capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business. A quorum, once established, shall not be broken by the withdrawal of enough votes to leave less than a quorum. If, however, such quorum shall not be present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, the stockholders entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, in the manner provided in Section 5 hereof, until a quorum shall be present or represented.

Section 7.                Voting. Unless otherwise required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, or permitted by the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the securities of the Corporation are listed or quoted for trading, any question brought before any meeting of the stockholders, other than the election of directors, shall be decided by the vote of the holders of a majority of the total number of votes of the Corporation’s capital stock present at the meeting in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on such question, voting as a single class. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, and subject to Section 11(a) of this Article II, each stockholder represented at a meeting of the stockholders shall be entitled to cast one (1) vote for each share of the capital stock entitled to vote thereat held by such stockholder. Such votes may be cast in person or by proxy as provided in Section 8 of this Article II. The Board of Directors, in its discretion, or the chair of a meeting of the stockholders, in his or her discretion, may require that any votes cast at such meeting shall be cast by written ballot.

 

Section 8.                Proxies. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of the stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting to the extent authorized by the Certificate of Incorporation may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted upon after three years from its date, unless such proxy provides for a longer period. Without limiting the manner in which a stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy, the following shall constitute a valid means by which a stockholder may grant such authority:

 

(i)      A stockholder may execute a document (as defined by Section 116(a) of the DGCL) authorizing another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy. Execution may be accomplished in the manner permitted by the DGCL, including by electronic signature, by the stockholder or such stockholder’s authorized officer, director, employee or agent.

 

(ii)      A stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy by transmitting or authorizing the transmission of an electronic transmission to the person who will be the holder of the proxy or to a proxy solicitation firm, proxy support service organization or like agent duly authorized by the person who will be the holder of the proxy to receive such transmission, provided that any such transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the transmission was authorized by the stockholder. If it is determined that such transmissions are valid, the inspectors or, if there are no inspectors, such other persons making that determination shall specify the information on which they relied.

 

Any copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reliable reproduction of the document (including any electronic transmission) authorizing another person or persons to act as proxy for a stockholder may be substituted or used in lieu of the original document for any and all purposes for which the original document could be used; provided, however, that such copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original document.

Section 9.                Consent of Stockholders in Lieu of Meeting. To the extent permissible pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation, any action required or permitted to be taken at any Annual or Special Meeting of Stockholders of the Corporation may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be executed 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 Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of the stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. No written consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take action are delivered to the Corporation in the manner required by this Section 9 within sixty (60) days of the first date on which a written consent is so delivered to the Corporation. Any person executing a consent may provide, whether through instruction to an agent or otherwise, that such a consent will be effective at a future time (including a time determined upon the happening of an event), no later than sixty (60) days after such instruction is given or such provision is made, if evidence of such instruction or provision is provided to the Corporation. Unless otherwise provided, any such consent shall be revocable prior to its becoming effective. An electronic transmission consenting to an action to be taken and transmitted by a stockholder or proxy holder, or by a person or persons authorized to act for a stockholder or proxy holder, shall be deemed to be written and signed for the purposes of this Section 9, provided that any such electronic transmission sets forth or is delivered with information from which the Corporation can determine (i) that the electronic transmission was transmitted by the stockholder or proxy holder or by a person or persons authorized to act for the stockholder or proxy holder and (ii) the date on which such stockholder or proxy holder or authorized person or persons transmitted such electronic transmission.

 

A consent given by electronic transmission shall be deemed delivered to the Corporation upon the earliest of: (i) when the consent enters an information processing system, if any, designated by the Corporation for receiving consents, so long as the electronic transmission is in a form capable of being processed by that system and the Corporation is able to retrieve that electronic transmission; (ii) when a paper reproduction of the consent is delivered to the Corporation’s principal place of business or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of the stockholders are recorded; (iii) when a paper reproduction of the consent is delivered to the Corporation’s registered office by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested; or (iv) when delivered in such other manner, if any, provided by resolution of the Board of Directors. Any copy, facsimile or other reliable reproduction of a consent in writing may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing for any and all purposes for which the original writing could be used, provided that such copy, facsimile or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing. 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 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 notice of such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take the action were delivered to the Corporation as provided above in this Section 9.

Section 10.            List of Stockholders Entitled to Vote. The Corporation shall prepare, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of the stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting; provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than ten (10) days before the meeting date, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth (10th) day before the meeting date. Such list shall be arranged in alphabetical order, and show the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder; provided, that the Corporation shall not be required 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 with the notice of the meeting, or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. In the event that the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then a list of stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof and may be examined by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting.

 

Section 11.            Record Date.

 

(a)          In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of the stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting. If the Board of Directors so fixes a date, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the Board of Directors determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for making such determination. If no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at a meeting of the stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and in such case shall also fix, as the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting, the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.

 

5

 

 

(b)          In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more than ten (10) days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board of Directors is required by applicable law, shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of the stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors and prior action by the Board of Directors is required by applicable law, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

 

Section 12.            Stock Ledger. The stock ledger of the Corporation shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the list of stockholders required by Section 10 of this Article II or the books and records of the Corporation, or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders. As used herein, the stock ledger of the Corporation shall refer to one (1) or more records administered by or on behalf of the Corporation in which the names of all of the Corporation’s stockholders of record, the address and number of shares registered in the name of each such stockholder, and all issuances and transfer of stock of the Corporation are recorded in accordance with Section 224 of the DGCL.

 

Section 13.            Conduct of Meetings. The Board of Directors of the Corporation may adopt by resolution such rules and regulations for the conduct of any meeting of the stockholders as it shall deem appropriate. Meetings of stockholders shall be presided over by the Chair of the Board of Directors, if there shall be one, or in his or her absence, or there shall not be a Chair of the Board of Directors or in his or her absence, the President. The Board of Directors shall have the authority to appoint a temporary chair to serve at any meeting of the stockholders if the Chair of the Board of Directors or the President is unable to do so for any reason. Except to the extent inconsistent with any rules and regulations adopted by the Board of Directors, the chair of any meeting of the stockholders shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chair, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting. Such rules, regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the Board of Directors or prescribed by the chair of the meeting, may include, without limitation, the following: (i) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting; (ii) the determination of when the polls shall open and close for any given matter to be voted on at the meeting; (iii) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present; (iv) limitations on attendance at or participation in the meeting to stockholders of record of the Corporation, their duly authorized and constituted proxies or such other persons as the chair of the meeting shall determine; (v) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; and (vi) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by stockholders.

 

6

 

 

Section 14.            Inspectors of Election. In advance of any meeting of the stockholders, the Board of Directors, by resolution, the Chair of the Board of Directors or the President shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting and make a written report thereof. One or more other persons may be designated as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspector or alternate is able to act at a meeting of the stockholders, the chair of the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, inspectors may be officers, employees or agents of the Corporation. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of the duties of inspector, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of such inspector’s ability. The inspector shall have the duties prescribed by law and shall take charge of the polls and, when the vote is completed, shall execute and deliver to the Corporation a certificate of the result of the vote taken and of such other facts as may be required by applicable law.

 

ARTICLE III

 

DIRECTORS

 

Section 1.                Number and Election of Directors. The Board of Directors shall consist of not less than one nor more than fifteen members, each of whom shall be a natural person, the exact number of which shall initially be fixed by the Incorporator and thereafter from time to time by the Board of Directors. Except as provided in Section 2 of this Article III, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at each Annual Meeting of Stockholders and each director so elected shall hold office until the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until such director’s successor is duly elected and qualified, or until such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal. Each director shall be a natural person and need not be a stockholder.

 

Section 2.                Vacancies. Unless otherwise required by law or the Certificate of Incorporation, vacancies on the Board of Directors or any committee thereof resulting from the death, resignation or removal of a director, or from an increase in the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors or such committee or otherwise, may be filled only by a majority of the directors then in office, though less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director. The directors so chosen shall, in the case of the Board of Directors, hold office until the next annual election and until their successors are duly elected and qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal and, in the case of any committee of the Board of Directors, shall hold office until their successors are duly appointed by the Board of Directors or until their earlier death, resignation or removal.

 

Section 3.                Duties and Powers. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors which may exercise all such powers of the Corporation except as may be otherwise provided in the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws or required by the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the securities of the Corporation are listed or quoted for trading.

Section 4.                Meetings. The Board of Directors and any committee thereof may hold meetings, both regular and special, either within or without the State of Delaware. Regular meetings of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof may be held without notice at such time and at such place as may from time to time be determined by the Board of Directors or such committee, respectively. Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be called by the Chair of the Board of Directors, if there be one, the President, or by any director. Special meetings of any committee of the Board of Directors may be called by the chair of such committee, if there be one, the President, or any director serving on such committee. Notice of any special meeting stating the place, date and hour of the meeting shall be given to each director (or, in the case of a committee, to each member of such committee) not less than twenty-four hours before the date of the meeting, by telephone, or in the form of a writing or electronic transmission, or on such shorter notice as the person or persons calling such meeting may deem necessary or appropriate in the circumstances.

 

Section 5.                Organization. At each meeting of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof, the Chair of the Board of Directors or the chair of such committee, as the case may be, or, in his or her absence or if there be none, a director chosen by a majority of the directors present, shall act as chair of such meeting. Except as provided below, the Secretary of the Corporation shall act as secretary at each meeting of the Board of Directors and of each committee thereof. In case the Secretary shall be absent from any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof, an Assistant Secretary shall perform the duties of secretary at such meeting; and in the absence from any such meeting of the Secretary and all the Assistant Secretaries, the chair of the meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of the meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the members of each committee of the Board of Directors may appoint any person to act as secretary of any meeting of such committee and the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Corporation may, but need not if such committee so elects, serve in such capacity.

 

Section 6.                Resignations and Removals of Directors. Any director of the Corporation may resign from the Board of Directors or any committee thereof at any time, by giving notice in writing or by electronic transmission to the Chair of the Board of Directors, if there be one, the President or the Secretary of the Corporation and, in the case of a committee, to the chair of such committee, if there be one. Such resignation shall take effect when delivered or, if such resignation specifies a later effective time or an effective time, determined upon the happening of an event or events, in which case, such resignation takes effect upon such effective time. Unless otherwise specified in such resignation, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. A resignation which is conditioned upon the director failing to receive a specified vote for reelection as a director may provide that it is irrevocable. Except as otherwise required by applicable law and subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of shares of preferred stock then outstanding, any director or the entire Board of Directors may be removed from office at any time, with or without cause, by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority in voting power of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote in the election of directors. Any director serving on a committee of the Board of Directors may be removed from such committee at any time by the Board of Directors.

Section 8.                Emergency Powers.

 

(a)          Emergency Provisions. Notwithstanding any different provision elsewhere in the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the provisions of this Section 8 shall be operative during any emergency resulting from an attack on the United States or on a locality in which the corporation conducts its business or customarily holds meetings of its Board of Directors or its stockholders, or during any nuclear or atomic disaster, or during the existence of any catastrophe, including, but not limited to, an epidemic or pandemic, and a declaration of a national emergency by the United States government, or other similar emergency condition, irrespective of whether a quorum of the Board of Directors or a standing committee of the Board of Directors can readily be convened for action.

 

(b)          Call and Notice of Directors’ Meetings. A meeting of the Board of Directors or a committee of the Board of Directors may be called at any time by any officer or director. Notice of any such meeting shall be given at least eight (8) hours prior to the time set for the meeting, but need be given only to such of the directors as it may be feasible to reach at the time and by such means as may be feasible at the time, including publication or radio.

 

(c)          Quorum of Directors. The director or directors in attendance at the meeting shall constitute a quorum. The officers and the members of the management of the corporation who are present shall, to the extent required to provide a quorum at any meeting of the Board of Directors, be deemed, in order of rank and within the same rank in order of seniority, directors for such meeting.

 

(d)          Officers’ Succession. The Board of Directors, either before or during the emergency, may provide, and from time to time modify, lines of succession in the event that during such emergency any or all officers or other agents of the corporation shall for any reason be rendered incapable of discharging their duties.

 

(e)          Change of Office. The Board of Directors, either before or during the emergency, may, effective in the emergency, change the head office or designate several alternative head offices or regional offices, or authorize the officers to do so.

 

(f)           Other Actions. During any emergency condition of a type described in Section 110(a) of the DGCL, the Board of Directors (or, if a quorum cannot be readily convened for a meeting, a majority of the directors present) may, pursuant to Section 110 of the DGCL:

 

(i)      take any action that it determines to be practical and necessary to address the circumstances of such emergency condition with respect to a meeting of the stockholders, including but not limited to, to postpone any stockholder meeting to a later time or date, or make a change to hold the meeting solely by means of remote communication, and notify stockholders of any postponement or change of place of meeting or a change to hold the meeting solely by means of remote communication, solely by a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to Section 13, 14, or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, and

(ii)      for any dividend that has been declared but which record date has not occurred, change the record date or payment date or both to a later date or dates. The payment date as so changed may not be more than sixty (60) days after the record date as so changed. Notice of the change must be given to stockholders as promptly as practicable, which may be given solely by a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the SEC pursuant to Section 13, 14, or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

 

(g)          Liability. No officer, director, or employee acting in accordance with any emergency Bylaw provision shall be liable except for willful misconduct.

 

(h)          Termination. These Bylaws shall remain in effect during any emergency and upon its termination the foregoing emergency Bylaw provisions shall cease to be operative. All emergency Bylaw provisions may be terminated at any time by the consent or direction of a majority of a quorum of the Board of Directors.

 

Section 9.                Actions of the Board by Written Consent. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if all the members of the Board of Directors or such committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing or by electronic transmission. Any person, whether or not then a director, may provide, through instruction to an agent or otherwise, that a consent to action will be effective at a future time (including a time determined upon the happening of an event) no later than sixty (60) days after such instruction is given or such provision is made and such consent shall be deemed to have been given at such effective time so long as such person is then a director and did not revoke the consent prior to such time. Any such consent shall be revocable prior to its becoming effective. After an action is taken, the consent or consents relating thereto shall be filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the Board of Directors, or the committee thereof, in the same paper or electronic form as the minutes are maintained.

 

Section 10.            Meetings by Means of Conference Telephone. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, or any committee thereof, may participate in a meeting of the Board of Directors or such committee by means of a conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in a meeting pursuant to this Section 9 shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

 

10

 

 

Section 11.            Committees. The Board of Directors may designate one or more committees, each committee to consist of one or more of the directors of the Corporation. Each member of a committee must meet the requirements for membership, if any, imposed by applicable law and the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the securities of the Corporation are listed or quoted for trading. The Board of Directors may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of any such committee. Subject to the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the securities of the Corporation are listed or quoted for trading, in the absence or disqualification of a member of a committee, and in the absence of a designation by the Board of Directors of an alternate member to replace the absent or disqualified member, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not such member or members constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another qualified member of the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in the place of any absent or disqualified member. Any such committee, to the extent permitted by law and provided in the resolution establishing such committee, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board of Directors in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation, and may authorize the seal of the Corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it; provided, however, that no such committee shall have the power or authority to (i) approve, adopt, or recommend to the stockholders any action or matter (other than the election or removal of directors) expressly required by the DGCL to be submitted to stockholders for approval, or (ii) adopt, amend, or repeal any of these Bylaws. Each committee shall keep regular minutes and report to the Board of Directors when required. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article III, the resolution of the Board of Directors establishing any committee of the Board of Directors and/or the charter of any such committee may establish requirements or procedures relating to the governance and/or operation of such committee that are different from, or in addition to, those set forth in these Bylaws and, to the extent that there is any inconsistency between these Bylaws and any such resolution or charter, the terms of such resolution or charter shall be controlling.

 

Section 12.            Subcommittees. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, or the resolution of the Board of Directors designating a committee, such committee may create one or more subcommittees, each subcommittee to consist of one or more members of the committee, and delegate to a subcommittee any or all of the powers and authority of the committee. Except for references to committees and members of committees in Section 10 of this Article III, every reference in these Bylaws to a committee of the Board of Directors or a member of a committee shall be deemed to include a reference to a subcommittee or member of a subcommittee.

 

Section 13.            Compensation. The directors may be paid their expenses, if any, of attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors and may be paid a fixed sum for attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors or a stated salary for service as director, payable in cash or securities. No such payment shall preclude any director from serving the Corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor. Members of special or standing committees may be allowed like compensation for service as committee members.

 

11

 

 

Section 14.            Interested Directors. No contract or transaction between the Corporation and one or more of its directors or officers, or between the Corporation and any other corporation, partnership, association or other organization in which one or more of its directors or officers are directors or officers or have a financial interest, shall be void or voidable solely for this reason, or solely because the director or officer is present at or participates in the meeting of the Board of Directors or committee thereof which authorizes the contract or transaction, or solely because any such director’s or officer’s vote is counted for such purpose if: (i) the material facts as to the director’s or officer’s relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Board of Directors or the committee, and the Board of Directors or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the affirmative votes of a majority of the disinterested directors, even though the disinterested directors be less than a quorum; or (ii) the material facts as to the director’s or officer’s relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the stockholders entitled to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved in good faith by vote of the stockholders; or (iii) the contract or transaction is fair as to the Corporation as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified by the Board of Directors, a committee thereof or the stockholders. Common or interested directors may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board of Directors or of a committee which authorizes such contract or transaction.

Each Vice President shall perform such other duties and have such other powers as the Board of Directors from time to time may prescribe.

NOTICES

 

Section 1.                Notices. Whenever written notice is required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, to be given to any director, member of a committee or stockholder, such notice may be given in writing directed to such director’s, committee member’s or stockholder’s mailing address (or by electronic transmission directed to such director’s, committee member’s or stockholder’ electronic mail address, as applicable) as it appears on the records of the Corporation and shall be given: (a) if mailed, when the notice is deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, (b) if delivered by courier service, the earlier of when the notice is received or left at such director’s, committee member’s or stockholder’s address or (c) if given by electronic mail, when directed to such director’s, committee member’s or stockholder’s electronic mail address unless such director, committee member or stockholder has notified the corporation in writing or by electronic transmission of an objection to receiving notice by electronic mail or such notice is prohibited by the under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws. Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders, but subject to Section 232(e) of the DGCL, any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder to whom the notice is given. Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice or electronic transmission to the Corporation. Notice given by electronic transmission, as described above, shall be deemed given: (i) if by facsimile telecommunication, when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice; (ii) if by a posting on an electronic network, together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specific posting, upon the later of (A) such posting and (B) the giving of such separate notice; and (iii) if by any other form of electronic transmission, when directed to the stockholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a notice may not be given by an electronic transmission from and after the time that (i) the Corporation is unable to deliver by such electronic transmission two consecutive notices given by the Corporation and (ii) such inability becomes known to the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Corporation or to the transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice, provided, however, the inadvertent failure to discover such inability shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.

 

Section 2.                Waivers of Notice. Whenever any notice is required, by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, to be given to any director, member of a committee or stockholder, a waiver thereof in writing, signed by the person or persons entitled to notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the person or persons entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent thereto. Attendance of a person at a meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where the person attends the 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. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any Annual or Special Meeting of Stockholders or any regular or special meeting of the directors or members of a committee of directors need be specified in any written waiver of notice or any waiver by electronic transmission unless so required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws.

ARTICLE VIII

 

INDEMNIFICATION

 

Section 1.                Power to Indemnify in Actions, Suits or Proceedings other than Those by or in the Right of the Corporation. Subject to Section 3 of this Article VIII, the Corporation shall indemnify 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 (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that such person’s conduct was unlawful.

 

17

 

 

Section 2.                Power to Indemnify in Actions, Suits or Proceedings by or in the Right of the Corporation. Subject to Section 3 of this Article VIII, the Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation; except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

 

Section 3.                Authorization of Indemnification. Any indemnification under this Article VIII (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director or officer is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1 or Section 2 of this Article VIII, as the case may be. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer of the Corporation at the time of such determination, (i) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (ii) by a committee of such directors designated by a majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (iii) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion or (iv) by the stockholders. Such determination shall be made, with respect to former directors and officers, by any person or persons having the authority to act on the matter on behalf of the Corporation. To the extent, however, that a present or former director or officer of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding described above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith, without the necessity of authorization in the specific case.

 

18

 

 

Section 4.                Good Faith Defined. For purposes of any determination under Section 3 of this Article VIII, a person shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful, if such person’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Corporation or another enterprise, or on information supplied to such person by the officers of the Corporation or another enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Corporation or another enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Corporation or another enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Corporation or another enterprise. The provisions of this Section 4 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the circumstances in which a person may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1 or Section 2 of this Article VIII, as the case may be.

 

Section 5.                Indemnification by a Court. Notwithstanding any contrary determination in the specific case under Section 3 of this Article VIII, and notwithstanding the absence of any determination thereunder, any director or officer may apply to the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any other court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Delaware for indemnification to the extent otherwise permissible under Section 1 or Section 2 of this Article VIII. The basis of such indemnification by a court shall be a determination by such court that indemnification of the director or officer is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1 or Section 2 of this Article VIII, as the case may be. Neither a contrary determination in the specific case under Section 3 of this Article VIII nor the absence of any determination thereunder shall be a defense to such application or create a presumption that the director or officer seeking indemnification has not met any applicable standard of conduct. Notice of any application for indemnification pursuant to this Section 5 shall be given to the Corporation promptly upon the filing of such application. If successful, in whole or in part, the director or officer seeking indemnification shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such application.

 

Section 6.                Expenses Payable in Advance. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a director or officer of the Corporation in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article VIII. Such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by former directors and officers or other employees and agents of the Corporation or by persons serving at the request of the Corporation as directors, officers, employees or agents of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the Corporation deems appropriate.

 

Section 7.                Nonexclusivity of Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article VIII shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, it being the policy of the Corporation that indemnification of the persons specified in Section 1 and Section 2 of this Article VIII shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law. A right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses arising under a provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws shall not be eliminated or impaired by an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws after the occurrence of the act or omission that is the subject of the civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification or advancement of expenses is sought, unless the provision in effect at the time of such act or omission explicitly authorizes such elimination or impairment after such action or omission has occurred. The provisions of this Article VIII shall not be deemed to preclude the indemnification of any person who is not specified in Section 1 or Section 2 of this Article VIII but whom the Corporation has the power or obligation to indemnify, under the provisions of the DGCL, or otherwise.

 

19

 

 

Section 8.                Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power or the obligation to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of this Article VIII.

 

Section 9.                Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Article VIII, references to “the Corporation” shall include, in addition to 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 or officers, so that any person who is or was a director or officer of such constituent corporation, or is or was a director or officer of such constituent corporation 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 VIII with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued. The term “another enterprise” as used in this Article VIII shall mean any other corporation or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise of which such person is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent. For purposes of this Article VIII, references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the Corporation” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director or officer with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation” as referred to in this Article VIII.

 

Section 10.            Survival of Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article VIII shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

 

20

 

 

Section 11.            Limitation on Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article VIII to the contrary, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification (which shall be governed by Section 5 of this Article VIII), the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any director or officer (or his or her heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives) or advance expenses in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

 

Section 12.            Indemnification of Employees and Agents. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, provide rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to employees and agents of the Corporation similar to those conferred in this Article VIII to directors and officers of the Corporation.

 

ARTICLE IX

 

FORUM FOR ADJUDICATION OF CERTAIN DISPUTES

 

Section 1.                Forum for Adjudication of Certain Disputes. Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum (an “Alternative Forum Consent”), the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a duty (including any fiduciary duty) owed by any current or former director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the Corporation to the Corporation or the Corporation’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation or any current or former director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the Corporation arising out of or relating to any provision of the General Corporation Law of Delaware or the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws (each, as in effect from time to time), or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation or any current or former director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the Corporation governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the State of Delaware; provided, however, that, in the event that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware lacks subject matter jurisdiction over any such action or proceeding, the sole and exclusive forum for such action or proceeding shall be another state or federal court located within the State of Delaware, in each such case, unless the Court of Chancery (or such other state or federal court located within the State of Delaware, as applicable) has dismissed a prior action by the same plaintiff asserting the same claims because such court lacked personal jurisdiction over an indispensable party named as a defendant therein. Unless the Corporation gives an Alternative Forum Consent, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Failure to enforce the foregoing provisions would cause the Corporation irreparable harm and the Corporation shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance, to enforce the foregoing provisions. Any person or entity purchasing, otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Section 9.1 of Article IX. The existence of any prior Alternative Forum Consent shall not act as a waiver of the Corporation’s ongoing consent right as set forth above in this Section 9.1 of Article IX with respect to any current or future actions or claims.

B.            Shares of Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Board is hereby authorized by resolution or resolutions to provide for series of Preferred Stock to be issued and, by filing a certificate pursuant to the DGCL (a “Certificate of Designation”), to fix the number of shares constituting such series, and to increase or decrease the number of shares of any such series (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding), and with respect to each such series, to fix the voting powers, if any, designations, preferences and the relative, participating, optional or other special rights, if any, and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of any such series. The authority of the Board with respect to each series of Preferred Stock shall include, but not be limited to, determination of the following:

 

(i)            the designation of the series, which may be by distinguishing number, letter or title;

 

2

(viii)            whether the shares of the series shall be convertible into shares of any other class or series, or any other security, of the Corporation or any other entity, and, if so, the specification of such other class or series of such other security, the conversion price or prices or rate or rates, any adjustments thereof, the date or dates at which such shares shall be convertible and all other terms and conditions upon which such conversion may be made;

 

(ix)            restrictions on the issuance of shares of the same series or of any other class or series;

 

(x)            the voting powers, if any, of the holders of shares of the series; and

C.            The voting powers, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock are as follows:

 

(i)            Except as otherwise set forth below in this Article IV and in Article VII, the voting powers, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall be identical in all respects.

 

(ii)            Subject to the other provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation, including the provisions of any Certificate of Designation, the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive such dividends and other distributions, in cash, stock of any entity or property of the Corporation, when and as may be declared thereon by the Board from time to time out of assets or funds of the Corporation legally available therefor, and shall share equally on a per share basis in all such dividends and other distributions. No such dividend or distribution that is payable in shares of Common Stock, including distributions pursuant to stock splits or divisions of Common Stock, or dividends payable in rights to acquire, or securities convertible or exercisable or exchangeable for, shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock may be made unless: (a) shares of Class A Common Stock are paid or distributed only in respect of Class A Common Stock, (b) shares of Class B Common Stock are paid or distributed only in respect of Class B Common Stock, (c) no such dividend or distribution is made in respect of the Class A Common Stock unless simultaneously also made in respect of the Class B Common Stock, (d) no such dividend or distribution is made in respect of the Class B Common Stock unless simultaneously also made in respect of the Class A Common Stock and (e) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock paid or distributed in respect of each outstanding share of Class A Common Stock is equal to the number of shares of Class B Common Stock paid or distributed in respect of each outstanding share of Class B Common Stock.

 

3

 

 

(iii)      (a)      Except as may be otherwise required by law or by this Certificate of Incorporation and subject to any voting rights that may be granted to holders of Preferred Stock pursuant to the provisions of a Certificate of Designation, all rights to vote and all voting power of the capital stock of the Corporation, whether for the election of directors or any other matter submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Corporation, shall be vested exclusively in the holders of Common Stock.

 

(b)            Except as may be otherwise required by law or by this Certificate of Incorporation, at every meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation, in connection with the election of directors and on all other matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Corporation generally, (A) every holder of record of Class A Common Stock shall be entitled to one (1) vote for each share of Class A Common Stock held in such holder’s name on the stock ledger of the Corporation, and (B) every holder of record of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to ten (10) votes for each share of Class B Common Stock held in such holder’s name on the stock ledger of the Corporation. Except as may be otherwise required by law or by this Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of Class A Common Stock and the holders of Class B Common Stock shall vote together as a single class in connection with the election of directors, all other matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Corporation generally and any other matters on which the holders of the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock are required or permitted to vote, and the votes cast in respect of the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock shall be counted and totaled together. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to any applicable approval rights of the holders of the Class B Common Stock under Article VI of this Certificate of Incorporation and except as otherwise required by applicable law, holders of the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, as such, shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Certificate of Incorporation that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other series of Preferred Stock, to vote thereon pursuant to this Certificate of Incorporation or applicable law.

 

(c)            Every reference in this Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws (as defined below) to a majority or other proportion of shares, or a majority or other proportion of the votes of shares, of Common Stock, Class A Common Stock, or Class B Common Stock shall refer to such majority or other proportion of the votes to which such shares of Common Stock, Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock entitle their holders to cast as provided in this Certificate of Incorporation.

 

4

 

 

(iv)            In the event of any dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, after payment in full of the amounts required to be paid to the holders of Preferred Stock pursuant to the provisions of a Certificate of Designation, the remaining assets and funds of the Corporation shall be distributed pro rata to the holders of Common Stock, and the holders of Class A Common Stock and the holders of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to receive the same amount per share in respect thereof.

 

(v)            In connection with any reorganization of the Corporation, any consolidation of the Corporation with one or more other entities or any merger of the Corporation with or into another entity, the holders of each share of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to receive the same per share consideration as the per share consideration, if any, received by the holders of each share of such other class of Common Stock, and any securities issued to the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock as consideration in such transaction may entitle the holders thereof to voting powers in the same ratio as applies between the shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. In the event that the holders of Class A Common Stock or of Class B Common Stock are granted rights to elect to receive one of two or more alternative forms of consideration in connection with such merger or consolidation, the foregoing provision shall be deemed satisfied if holders of Class A Common Stock and holders of Class B Common Stock are granted substantially identical election rights.

 

(vi)      (a)      The holders of Class A Common Stock shall not be entitled to convert any share of Class A Common Stock into any other security of the Corporation or any other property. Prior to the date of a Distribution, each holder of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to convert at such holder’s option, at any time and from time to time, any share of Class B Common Stock into one (1) fully paid and non-assessable share of Class A Common Stock.

 

(b)            Prior to the date of a Distribution, each outstanding share of Class B Common Stock shall immediately and automatically (without any action on the part of the holder or the Corporation) convert into one (1) fully paid and non-assessable share of Class A Common Stock upon any transfer of such share (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, a transfer that constitutes a Distribution) if, after such transfer, such share is not beneficially owned by Intel. Following a Distribution, shares of Class B Common Stock shall no longer convert into shares of Class A Common Stock upon any subsequent transfer.

 

(c)            Each outstanding share of Class B Common Stock shall immediately and automatically (without any action on the part of the holder or the Corporation) convert into one (1) fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock automatically on the Threshold Date; provided, however, that as of such date, a Distribution has not occurred. The Corporation shall provide notice of such conversion of the shares of Class B Common Stock pursuant to this sub-clause (c) of this clause (vi) of this Section C to holders of record of such shares of Common Stock as soon as practicable following such conversion stating the date of such conversion; provided, however, that the Corporation may satisfy such notice requirements by providing such notice prior to such conversion. Such notice shall be provided by any means then permitted by the DGCL; provided, however, that no failure to give such notice nor any defect therein shall affect the validity of the conversion of the shares of Class B Common Stock.

 

5

 

 

(d)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, following a Distribution, the Corporation may submit to its stockholders for approval a proposal to convert each outstanding share of Class B Common Stock into one (1) fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock; provided, however, that subject to approval by the stockholders, such conversion shall be effected by the Corporation only if the Corporation has received either (i) a favorable private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, or (ii) an opinion of a law or accounting firm of national reputation, in each case, satisfactory to Intel in its sole and absolute discretion, to the effect that such conversion will not affect the intended tax treatment of the Distribution. For purposes of this sub-clause (d) of this clause (vi) of this Section C, the holders of Class A Common Stock and the holders of Class B Common Stock shall vote together as a single class and every holder of Class A Common Stock and every holder of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to one (1) vote for each share of Common Stock held in such holder’s name on the stock ledger of the Corporation, and no vote of the holders of the Class A Common Stock or the Class B Common Stock voting separately as a class shall be required therefor.

 

(e)            Immediately upon any conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to this clause (vi) of this Section C, the rights of the holders of such shares of Class B Common Stock as such shall cease and such shares of Class B Common Stock shall be extinguished, and such holders shall be treated for all purposes as having become the record holders of the shares of Class A Common Stock into which such holders’ shares of Class B Common Stock were converted.

 

(f)            If the date on which any share of Class B Common Stock is converted into a share of Class A Common Stock pursuant to this clause (vi) of this Section C is (A) after the record date for the determination of the holders of Class B Common Stock entitled to receive any dividend and (B) prior to the date on which such dividend is to be paid to such holders, the holder of the share of Class B Common Stock so converted as of such record date will be entitled to receive such dividend on such payment date, provided, however, that to the extent that such dividend is payable in shares of Class B Common Stock or in rights to acquire, or securities convertible or exercisable or exchangeable for, shares of Class B Common Stock, such shares of Class B Common Stock shall also be deemed to have so converted into an equivalent number of shares of Class A Common Stock as of the date of such conversion such that no such shares of Class B Common Stock shall be issued in payment thereof and, in lieu thereof, such dividend shall instead be paid in a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Class B Common Stock that would have otherwise been issued as part of such dividend.

 

(g)            The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon conversion of outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock that shall be issuable upon the conversion of all such outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock.

 

6

 

 

(h)            The Corporation shall not reissue or resell any shares of Class B Common Stock that are converted into shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to this clause (vi) of this Section C or that are acquired by the Corporation in any other manner. The Corporation shall, from time to time, take such appropriate action as may be necessary to retire such shares and to reduce the authorized number of shares of Class B Common Stock accordingly.

 

(vii)            The holders of shares of Common Stock are not entitled to any preemptive right to subscribe for, purchase or receive any part of any new or additional issue of stock of any class or series of the Corporation, whether now or hereafter authorized, or of bonds, debentures or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for stock of the Corporation.

 

(viii)            No stockholder shall be entitled to exercise any right of cumulative voting.

 

ARTICLE V

 

CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES

 

A.            In anticipation that the Corporation and Intel may engage in the same or similar activities or lines of business and have an interest in the same areas of corporate opportunities, and in recognition of the benefits to be derived by the Corporation through its continued contractual, corporate and business relations with Intel (including service of officers and/or directors of Intel as officers and/or directors of the Corporation), and in addition to and subject to the limitations set forth in Article VI, the provisions of this Article V are set forth to regulate and define the conduct of certain affairs of the Corporation as they may involve Intel and its officers and directors, and the powers, rights, duties and liabilities of the Corporation and its officers, directors and stockholders in connection therewith.

 

B.            No contract, agreement, arrangement or transaction between the Corporation and Intel shall be void or voidable solely for the reason that Intel is a party thereto, and Intel: (i) shall be deemed to have fully satisfied and fulfilled any duties to the Corporation and its stockholders with respect thereto; (ii) shall not be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for any breach of fiduciary duty by reason of the entering into, performance or consummation of any such contract, agreement, arrangement or transaction; (iii) shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner it reasonably believed to be in and not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation; and (iv) shall be deemed not to have breached any duties of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders and not to have received an improper personal gain therefrom, in each case to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, if the material facts as to the contract, agreement, arrangement or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Board or the committee thereof that authorizes the contract, agreement, arrangement or transaction, and the Board or such committee in good faith authorizes the contract, agreement, arrangement or transaction by the affirmative vote of a majority of the disinterested directors, even though less than a quorum. Directors and/or officers of the Corporation who are also directors and/or officers of Intel may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board or of a committee that authorizes the contract, agreement, arrangement or transaction.

 

7

 

 

C.            Intel shall have the right to, and shall have no duty not to (i) engage in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as the Corporation, (ii) do business with any client or customer of the Corporation and (iii) employ or otherwise engage any officer or employee of the Corporation, and the Corporation hereby renounces any interest or expectancy in any such activities and shall not be deemed to have an interest or expectancy in any such activities merely because the Corporation engages in the same or similar activities or otherwise. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, neither Intel nor any officer or director thereof (except as provided in Section D of this Article V) shall be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty by reason of any such activities of Intel or of such person’s participation therein. Subject to the provisions of Section D of this Article V, in the event that Intel acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for both Intel and the Corporation, Intel shall have no duty to communicate or present such corporate opportunity to the Corporation, and the Corporation, to the fullest extent permitted by law, hereby renounces any interest or expectancy in such corporate opportunity and waives any claim that such corporate opportunity should have been presented to the Corporation. Subject to the provisions of Section D of this Article V, Intel shall not be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty as a stockholder of the Corporation by reason of the fact that Intel pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself, directs such corporate opportunity to another Person or does not present such corporate opportunity to the Corporation.

 

D.            To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in the event that a director or officer of the Corporation who is also a director or officer of Intel acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for both the Corporation and Intel and which may be properly pursued by the Corporation consistent with the provisions of Article VI hereof, such director or officer of the Corporation (i) shall be deemed to have fully satisfied and fulfilled such person’s fiduciary duty to the Corporation and its stockholders with respect to such corporate opportunity, (ii) shall not be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for any breach of fiduciary duty by reason of the fact that Intel pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself or directs such corporate opportunity to another Person or does not present such corporate opportunity to the Corporation, (iii) shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believes to be in and not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation for the purposes of Article XI hereof and the other provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation, and (iv) shall be deemed not to have breached such person’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders or to have received an improper personal gain therefrom for the purposes of Article XI hereof and the other provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation, if such director or officer acts in good faith in a manner consistent with the following policy:

 

(w)            where a corporate opportunity is offered to a person who is a director and/or officer of the Corporation and who is also a director and/or officer of Intel, the Corporation shall be entitled to pursue such opportunity only if such opportunity is expressly offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director and/or officer, as applicable, of the Corporation (and to the extent any such opportunity is not so expressly offered to such person in such capacity, the Corporation hereby renounces any interest or expectancy in such opportunity); and

(x)            if an officer and/or director of the Corporation, who also serves as an officer and/or director of Intel, acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for both the Corporation and Intel in any manner not addressed by Article V, Section D, clause (w), such officer or director shall have no duty to communicate or present such corporate opportunity to the Corporation and shall to the fullest extent permitted by law not be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for breach of fiduciary duty as an officer or director of the Corporation by reason of the fact that Intel pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself, directs such corporate opportunity to another Person or does not present such corporate opportunity to the Corporation, and the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by law renounces any interest or expectancy in such business opportunity and waives any claim that such business opportunity constituted a corporate opportunity that should be presented to the Corporation.

 

The provisions of this Section D are not intended to be an exhaustive statement of corporate opportunities which may be available to the Corporation, pursuit of which shall be in accordance with this Certificate of Incorporation and applicable law.

 

E.            For purposes of this Article V and Article VI, “Corporation” means the Corporation and all corporations, partnerships, joint ventures, limited liability companies, trusts, associations and other entities in which the Corporation owns (directly or indirectly) fifty percent (50%) or more of the outstanding voting stock, voting power, partnership interests, limited liability company interests or similar ownership interests.

 

F.            Any Person purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Article V.

 

G.            Section A, Section C and Section D of this Article V shall become inoperative and of no effect on the later of (i) the Threshold Date and (ii) the date upon which no officer and/or director of the Corporation is also an officer and/or director of Intel. Neither the alteration, amendment, termination or repeal of this Article V nor the adoption of any provision inconsistent with this Article V shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this Article V in respect of any matter occurring, or any cause of action, suit or claim that, but for this Article V would accrue or arise, prior to such alteration, amendment, termination, repeal or adoption. Following the later of (i) the Threshold Date and (ii) the date upon which no officer and/or director of the Corporation is also an officer and/or director of Intel, any contract, agreement, arrangement or transaction involving a corporate opportunity not approved or allocated as provided in this Article V shall not by reason thereof result in any breach of any fiduciary duty or duty of loyalty or failure to act in good faith or in the best interests of the Corporation or derivation of any improper personal gain, but shall be governed by the other provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation, the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Corporation (as amended and/or restated from time to time, the Bylaws”), the DGCL and other applicable law.

ARTICLE VII

 

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

 

A.            The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board. The Board shall consist of no less than five directors. Subject to the limitation in the preceding sentence, the number of directors shall be determined from time to time solely by resolution adopted by affirmative vote of a majority of the entire Board which the Corporation would have if there were no vacancies at the time such resolution is adopted.

 

B.            Elections of the members of the Board shall be held annually at the annual meeting of stockholders and each member of the Board shall hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until such director’s successor is elected and qualified, subject to such director’s earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal. Elections of the members of the Board need not be by written ballot unless the Bylaws shall so provide.

 

C.            Any newly created directorship on the Board that results from an increase in the number of directors and any other vacancy occurring on the Board shall be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Board then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director; provided, however, that prior to the Majority Date, any vacancy or newly created directorship caused by an action of the stockholders shall be filled only by a vote of the stockholders. Any director elected to fill a vacancy not resulting from an increase in the number of directors shall have the same remaining term as that of his or her predecessor. No decrease in the number of directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.

 

12

 

 

D.            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, from the time of the Classified Annual Meeting, the directors shall be divided into three classes, designated Class I, Class II and Class III. Each class shall consist, as nearly as may be possible, of one-third of the total number of directors constituting the entire Board. The term of the initial Class I directors shall terminate on the date of the first annual meeting of stockholders following the Classified Annual Meeting. The term of the initial Class II directors shall terminate on the date of the second annual meeting of stockholders following the Classified Annual Meeting. The term of the initial Class III directors shall terminate on the date of the third annual meeting of stockholders following the Classified Annual Meeting. At the first annual meeting of stockholders following the Classified Annual Meeting and each succeeding annual meeting of stockholders, successors to the class of directors whose term expires at such annual meeting of stockholders shall be elected for a three-year term. If the number of directors is changed following the Classified Annual Meeting, any increase or decrease shall be apportioned among the classes so as to maintain the number of directors in each class as nearly equal as possible, and any additional director of any class elected to fill a vacancy resulting from an increase in such class shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of that class, but in no case will a decrease in the number of directors shorten the term of any incumbent director.

 

E.            Any director may be removed from office at any time, with or without cause, until the Classified Annual Meeting, and then only with cause, in each case, by the affirmative vote of the holders of shares of capital stock of the Corporation representing at least a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on the election of such director.

 

F.            Advance notice of stockholder nominations for the election of directors and stockholder proposals for business to be conducted at any meeting of stockholders shall be given in the manner provided in the Bylaws.

 

G.            The books and records of the Corporation may be kept (subject to any mandatory requirement of law) outside the State of Delaware at such place or places (and/or on, by means of or in the form of any information storage device, method or one or more electronic networks or databases (including one or more distributed electronic networks or databases) in accordance with Section 224 of the DGCL).

 

ARTICLE VIII

 

STOCKHOLDER ACTION

 

A.            Any action required or permitted to be taken by stockholders at any annual or special meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding capital 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 of capital stock entitled to vote thereon were present and voted; provided, however, that except as otherwise provided by a Certificate of Designation, from and after the Majority Date, any action required or permitted to be taken by stockholders may be effected only at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders and may not be effected by a written consent or consents by stockholders in lieu of such a meeting.

 

13

 

 

B.            Except as otherwise required by law or provided by a Certificate of Designation, special meetings of stockholders of the Corporation may be called only by (1) the Chair of the Board, (2) the Chief Executive Officer or (3) the Secretary of the Corporation upon written request to the Secretary of the Corporation by a majority of the directors then in office. No business other than that stated in the notice of a special meeting of stockholders shall be transacted at such special meeting.

 

ARTICLE IX

 

AMENDMENT OF BYLAWS AND CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION

 

A.            In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by law, the Board is expressly authorized and empowered to adopt, amend and repeal the Bylaws at any regular or special meeting of the Board or by written consent, subject to the power of the stockholders of the Corporation to adopt, amend or repeal any Bylaws. The stockholders shall have the power to make, amend or repeal the Bylaws.

 

B.            Except as otherwise provided in this Certificate of Incorporation, the Corporation reserves the right to amend and repeal any provisions contained in this Certificate of Incorporation in the manner prescribed by the laws of the State of Delaware, and all rights of stockholders shall be subject to this reservation.

 

ARTICLE X

A.            The Corporation shall not be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL (“Section 203”), and the restrictions contained in Section 203 shall not apply to the Corporation, until the first date on which Intel ceases to own (as defined in Section 203) shares of voting stock (as defined in Section 203) representing at least fifteen percent (15%) of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the outstanding shares of voting stock (as defined in Section 203), voting together as a single class. The Corporation shall thereafter be governed by Section 203 if and for so long as Section 203 by its terms shall apply to the Corporation.

 

ARTICLE XI

 

LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION

 

A.            A director or officer of this Corporation shall not be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, respectively, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL as the same exists or may hereafter be amended. Any repeal or modification of this Section A shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director or officer of the Corporation existing hereunder with respect to any act or omission occurring prior to such repeal or modification.

 

14

 

 

B.            The Corporation shall indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by applicable law, as now or hereafter in effect, and such right to indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Corporation and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and personal and legal representatives; provided, however, that except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification, the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any director or officer (or his or her heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives) in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the Board of Directors. The right to indemnification conferred by this Article XI shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending or otherwise participating in any proceeding in advance of its final disposition upon receipt by the Corporation of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer receiving advancement to repay the amount advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation under this Article XI.

 

C.            The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, provide rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to employees and agents of the Corporation similar to those conferred in this Article XI to directors and officers of the Corporation.

 

D.            The rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses conferred in this Article XI shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under this Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws of the Corporation, any statute, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

 

E.            Any repeal or modification of this Article XI by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses of a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation existing at the time of such repeal or modification with respect to any acts or omissions occurring prior to such repeal or modification.

 

ARTICLE XII

 

FORUM FOR ADJUDICATION OF CERTAIN DISPUTES

 

A.            Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum (an “Alternative Forum Consent”), the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a duty (including any fiduciary duty) owed by any current or former director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the Corporation to the Corporation or the Corporation’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation or any current or former director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the Corporation arising out of or relating to any provision of the DGCL, this Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws (each, as in effect from time to time), or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation or any current or former director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the Corporation governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the State of Delaware; provided, however, that the provisions of this Article XII will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or the rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, or any other claim for which the U.S. federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction; provided, further, that in the event that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware lacks subject matter jurisdiction over any such action or proceeding, the sole and exclusive forum for such action or proceeding shall be another state or federal court located within the State of Delaware, in each such case, unless the Court of Chancery (or such other state or federal court located within the State of Delaware, as applicable) has dismissed a prior action by the same plaintiff asserting the same claims because such court lacked personal jurisdiction over an indispensable party named as a defendant therein. Unless the Corporation gives an Alternative Forum Consent, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Failure to enforce the foregoing provisions would cause the Corporation irreparable harm and the Corporation shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance, to enforce the foregoing provisions. Any person or entity purchasing, otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Article XII. The existence of any prior Alternative Forum Consent shall not act as a waiver of the Corporation’s ongoing consent right as set forth above in this Article XII with respect to any current or future actions or claims.

ARTICLE XIII

If the chair of an Annual Meeting determines that business was not properly brought before the Annual Meeting in accordance with the foregoing procedures, the chair shall declare to the meeting that the business was not properly brought before the meeting and such business shall not be transacted.

(d)            A stockholder providing notice of any nomination proposed to be made at an Annual Meeting or Special Meeting shall further update and supplement such notice, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such notice pursuant to this Section 5 of this Article II shall be true and correct as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to receive notice of the Annual Meeting or Special Meeting, and such update and supplement shall be delivered to or be mailed and received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than five (5) business days after the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to receive notice of such Annual Meeting or Special Meeting.

Section 6.      Notice. Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a notice of the meeting, in the form of a writing or electronic transmission, shall be given which shall state the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting, the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting, if such date is different from the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of such meeting and, in the case of a Special Meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise required by law, notice of any meeting shall be given not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of such meeting.

 

Section 7.      Adjournments and Postponements.

Section 8.      Quorum. Unless otherwise required by the DGCL or other applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of thirty three and one-third percent (33⅓%) of the Corporation’s capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business. A quorum, once established, shall not be broken by the withdrawal of enough votes to leave less than a quorum. If, however, such quorum shall not be present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, the stockholders entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, in the manner provided in Section 7 of this Article II, until a quorum shall be present or represented.

 

Section 9.      Voting. Unless otherwise required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, or permitted by the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the securities of the Corporation are listed or quoted for trading, any question brought before any meeting of the stockholders, other than the election of directors, shall be decided by the vote of the holders of a majority of the total number of votes of the Corporation’s capital stock present at the meeting in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on such question, voting as a single class. Subject to Section 13(a) of this Article II, each stockholder represented at a meeting of the stockholders shall be entitled to cast a vote or votes as set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation in respect of the shares of the capital stock entitled to vote thereat held by such stockholder. Such votes may be cast in person or by proxy as provided in Section 10 of this Article II. The Board of Directors, in its discretion, or the chair of a meeting of the stockholders, in his or her discretion, may require that any votes cast at such meeting shall be cast by written ballot.

 

Section 10.      Proxies. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of the stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting to the extent authorized by the Certificate of Incorporation may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted upon after three years from its date, unless such proxy provides for a longer period. Without limiting the manner in which a stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy, the following shall constitute a valid means by which a stockholder may grant such authority:

 

(i)            A stockholder may execute a document (as defined by Section 116(a) of the DGCL) authorizing another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy. Execution may be accomplished in the manner permitted by the DGCL, including by electronic signature, by the stockholder or such stockholder’s authorized officer, director, employee or agent.

(ii)            A stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy by transmitting or authorizing the transmission of an electronic transmission to the person who will be the holder of the proxy or to a proxy solicitation firm, proxy support service organization or like agent duly authorized by the person who will be the holder of the proxy to receive such transmission, provided that any such transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the transmission was authorized by the stockholder. If it is determined that such transmissions are valid, the inspectors or, if there are no inspectors, such other persons making that determination shall specify the information on which they relied.

 

Any copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reliable reproduction of the document (including any electronic transmission) authorizing another person or persons to act as proxy for a stockholder may be substituted or used in lieu of the original document for any and all purposes for which the original document could be used; provided, however, that such copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original document.

 

Section 11.      Consent of Stockholders in Lieu of Meeting. To the extent permissible pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation, any action required or permitted to be taken at any Annual or Special Meeting of Stockholders of the Corporation may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be executed 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 Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of the stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. No written consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take action are delivered to the Corporation in the manner required by this Section 9 within sixty (60) days of the first date on which a written consent is so delivered to the Corporation. Any person executing a consent may provide, whether through instruction to an agent or otherwise, that such a consent will be effective at a future time (including a time determined upon the happening of an event), no later than sixty (60) days after such instruction is given or such provision is made, if evidence of such instruction or provision is provided to the Corporation. Unless otherwise provided, any such consent shall be revocable prior to its becoming effective. An electronic transmission consenting to an action to be taken and transmitted by a stockholder or proxy holder, or by a person or persons authorized to act for a stockholder or proxy holder, shall be deemed to be written and signed for the purposes of this Section 11, provided that any such electronic transmission sets forth or is delivered with information from which the Corporation can determine (i) that the electronic transmission was transmitted by the stockholder or proxy holder or by a person or persons authorized to act for the stockholder or proxy holder and (ii) the date on which such stockholder or proxy holder or authorized person or persons transmitted such electronic transmission.

 

7

 

 

A consent given by electronic transmission shall be deemed delivered to the Corporation upon the earliest of: (i) when the consent enters an information processing system, if any, designated by the Corporation for receiving consents, so long as the electronic transmission is in a form capable of being processed by that system and the Corporation is able to retrieve that electronic transmission; (ii) when a paper reproduction of the consent is delivered to the Corporation’s principal place of business or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of the stockholders are recorded; (iii) when a paper reproduction of the consent is delivered to the Corporation’s registered office by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested; or (iv) when delivered in such other manner, if any, provided by resolution of the Board of Directors. Any copy, facsimile or other reliable reproduction of a consent in writing may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing for any and all purposes for which the original writing could be used, provided that such copy, facsimile or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing. 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 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 notice of such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take the action were delivered to the Corporation as provided above in this Section 11.

 

Section 12.      List of Stockholders Entitled to Vote. The Corporation shall prepare, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of the stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting; provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than ten (10) days before the meeting date, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth (10th) day before the meeting date. Such list shall be arranged in alphabetical order, and show the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder; provided, that the Corporation shall not be required 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 with the notice of the meeting, or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. In the event that the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then a list of stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof and may be examined by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting.

 

Section 13.      Record Date.

 

(a)            In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of the stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting. If the Board of Directors so fixes a date, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the Board of Directors determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for making such determination. If no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at a meeting of the stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and in such case shall also fix, as the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting, the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.

(b)            In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more than ten (10) days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board of Directors is required by applicable law, shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of the stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors and prior action by the Board of Directors is required by applicable law, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

 

Section 14.      Stock Ledger. The stock ledger of the Corporation shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the list of stockholders required by Section 12 of this Article II or the books and records of the Corporation, or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders. As used herein, the stock ledger of the Corporation shall refer to one (1) or more records administered by or on behalf of the Corporation in which the names of all of the Corporation’s stockholders of record, the address and number of shares registered in the name of each such stockholder, and all issuances and transfer of stock of the Corporation are recorded in accordance with Section 224 of the DGCL.

 

Section 15.      Conduct of Meetings. The Board of Directors of the Corporation may adopt by resolution such rules and regulations for the conduct of any meeting of the stockholders as it shall deem appropriate. Meetings of stockholders shall be presided over by the Chair of the Board of Directors, or in his or her absence, the Chief Executive Officer. The Board of Directors shall have the authority to appoint a temporary chair to serve at any meeting of the stockholders if the Chair of the Board of Directors or the Chief Executive Officer is unable to do so for any reason. Except to the extent inconsistent with any rules and regulations adopted by the Board of Directors, the chair of any meeting of the stockholders shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chair, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting. Such rules, regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the Board of Directors or prescribed by the chair of the meeting, may include, without limitation, the following: (i) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting; (ii) the determination of when the polls shall open and close for any given matter to be voted on at the meeting; (iii) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present; (iv) limitations on attendance at or participation in the meeting to stockholders of record of the Corporation, their duly authorized and constituted proxies or such other persons as the chair of the meeting shall determine; (v) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; and (vi) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by stockholders.

Section 16.      Inspectors of Election. In advance of any meeting of the stockholders, the Board of Directors, by resolution, the Chair of the Board of Directors or the Chief Executive Officer shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting and make a written report thereof. One or more other persons may be designated as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspector or alternate is able to act at a meeting of the stockholders, the chair of the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, inspectors may be officers, employees or agents of the Corporation. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of the duties of inspector, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of such inspector’s ability. The inspector shall have the duties prescribed by law and shall take charge of the polls and, when the vote is completed, shall execute and deliver to the Corporation a certificate of the result of the vote taken and of such other facts as may be required by applicable law.

Such resignation shall take effect when delivered or, if such resignation specifies a later effective time or an effective time, determined upon the happening of an event or events, in which case, such resignation takes effect upon such effective time. Unless otherwise specified in such resignation, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. A resignation which is conditioned upon the director failing to receive a specified vote for reelection as a director may provide that it is irrevocable. Except as otherwise required by applicable law and subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of shares of preferred stock then outstanding, any director or the entire Board of Directors may be removed from office at any time pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority in voting power of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote in the election of directors.

Section 8.      Emergency Powers.

 

(a)            Emergency Provisions. Notwithstanding any different provision elsewhere in the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the provisions of this Section 8 shall be operative during any emergency resulting from an attack on the United States, Israel or other locality in which the corporation conducts its business or customarily holds meetings of its Board of Directors or its stockholders, or during any nuclear or atomic disaster, or during the existence of any catastrophe, including, but not limited to, an epidemic or pandemic, and a declaration of a national emergency by the United States or Israeli government, or other similar emergency condition, irrespective of whether a quorum of the Board of Directors or a standing committee of the Board of Directors can readily be convened for action.

 

(b)            Call and Notice of Directors’ Meetings. A meeting of the Board of Directors or a committee of the Board of Directors may be called at any time by any officer or director. Notice of any such meeting shall be given at least eight (8) hours prior to the time set for the meeting, but need be given only to such of the directors as it may be feasible to reach at the time and by such means as may be feasible at the time, including publication or radio.

(f)            Other Actions. During any emergency condition of a type described in Section 110(a) of the DGCL, the Board of Directors (or, if a quorum cannot be readily convened for a meeting, a majority of the directors present) may, pursuant to Section 110 of the DGCL:

 

(i)            take any action that it determines to be practical and necessary to address the circumstances of such emergency condition with respect to a meeting of the stockholders, including but not limited to, to postpone any stockholder meeting to a later time or date, or make a change to hold the meeting solely by means of remote communication, and notify stockholders of any postponement or change of place of meeting or a change to hold the meeting solely by means of remote communication, solely by a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to Section 13, 14, or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, and

 

(ii)            for any dividend that has been declared but which record date has not occurred, change the record date or payment date or both to a later date or dates. The payment date as so changed may not be more than sixty (60) days after the record date as so changed. Notice of the change must be given to stockholders as promptly as practicable, which may be given solely by a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the SEC pursuant to Section 13, 14, or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

 

(g)            Liability. No officer, director, or employee acting in accordance with any emergency Bylaw provision shall be liable except for willful misconduct.

Section 9.      Actions of the Board by Written Consent. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if all the members of the Board of Directors or such committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing or by electronic transmission. Any person, whether or not then a director, may provide, through instruction to an agent or otherwise, that a consent to action will be effective at a future time (including a time determined upon the happening of an event) no later than sixty (60) days after such instruction is given or such provision is made and such consent shall be deemed to have been given at such effective time so long as such person is then a director and did not revoke the consent prior to such time. Any such consent shall be revocable prior to its becoming effective. After an action is taken, the consent or consents relating thereto shall be filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the Board of Directors, or the committee thereof, in the same paper or electronic form as the minutes are maintained.

 

13

 

 

Section 10.      Meetings by Means of Conference Telephone. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, or any committee thereof, may participate in a meeting of the Board of Directors or such committee by means of a conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in a meeting pursuant to this Section 10 shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

 

Section 11.      Committees. The Board of Directors may designate one or more committees, each committee to consist of one or more of the directors of the Corporation. Each member of a committee must meet the requirements for membership, if any, imposed by applicable law and the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the securities of the Corporation are listed or quoted for trading. The Board of Directors may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of any such committee. Subject to the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the securities of the Corporation are listed or quoted for trading, in the absence or disqualification of a member of a committee, and in the absence of a designation by the Board of Directors of an alternate member to replace the absent or disqualified member, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not such member or members constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another qualified member of the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in the place of any absent or disqualified member. Any such committee, to the extent permitted by law and provided in the resolution establishing such committee, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board of Directors in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation, and may authorize the seal of the Corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it; provided, however, that no such committee shall have the power or authority to (i) approve, adopt, or recommend to the stockholders any action or matter (other than the election or removal of directors) expressly required by the DGCL to be submitted to stockholders for approval, or (ii) adopt, amend, or repeal any of these Bylaws. Each committee shall keep regular minutes and report to the Board of Directors when required. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article III, the resolution of the Board of Directors establishing any committee of the Board of Directors and/or the charter of any such committee may establish requirements or procedures relating to the governance and/or operation of such committee that are different from, or in addition to, those set forth in these Bylaws and, to the extent that there is any inconsistency between these Bylaws and any such resolution or charter, the terms of such resolution or charter shall be controlling.

 

14

 

 

Section 12.      Subcommittees. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, or the resolution of the Board of Directors designating a committee, such committee may create one or more subcommittees, each subcommittee to consist of one or more members of the committee, and delegate to a subcommittee any or all of the powers and authority of the committee. Except for references to committees and members of committees in Section 11 of this Article III, every reference in these Bylaws to a committee of the Board of Directors or a member of a committee shall be deemed to include a reference to a subcommittee or member of a subcommittee.

 

Section 13.      Compensation. The directors may be paid their expenses, if any, of attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors and may be paid a fixed sum for attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors or a stated salary for service as director, payable in cash or securities. No such payment shall preclude any director from serving the Corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor. Members of special or standing committees may be allowed like compensation for service as committee members.

 

Section 14.      Interested Directors. No contract or transaction between the Corporation and one or more of its directors or officers, or between the Corporation and any other corporation, partnership, association or other organization in which one or more of its directors or officers are directors or officers or have a financial interest, shall be void or voidable solely for this reason, or solely because the director or officer is present at or participates in the meeting of the Board of Directors or committee thereof which authorizes the contract or transaction, or solely because any such director’s or officer’s vote is counted for such purpose if: (i) the material facts as to the director’s or officer’s relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Board of Directors or the committee, and the Board of Directors or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the affirmative votes of a majority of the disinterested directors, even though the disinterested directors be less than a quorum; or (ii) the material facts as to the director’s or officer’s relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the stockholders entitled to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved in good faith by vote of the stockholders; or (iii) the contract or transaction is fair as to the Corporation as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified by the Board of Directors, a committee thereof or the stockholders.

INDEMNIFICATION

 

Section 1.      Power to Indemnify in Actions, Suits or Proceedings other than Those by or in the Right of the Corporation. Subject to Section 3 of this Article VIII, the Corporation shall indemnify 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 (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that such person’s conduct was unlawful.

Section 2.      Power to Indemnify in Actions, Suits or Proceedings by or in the Right of the Corporation. Subject to Section 3 of this Article VIII, the Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation; except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

 

Section 3.      Authorization of Indemnification. Any indemnification under this Article VIII (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director or officer is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1 or Section 2 of this Article VIII, as the case may be. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer of the Corporation at the time of such determination, (i) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (ii) by a committee of such directors designated by a majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (iii) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion or (iv) by the stockholders. Such determination shall be made, with respect to former directors and officers, by any person or persons having the authority to act on the matter on behalf of the Corporation. To the extent, however, that a present or former director or officer of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding described above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith, without the necessity of authorization in the specific case.

 

Section 4.      Good Faith Defined. For purposes of any determination under Section 3 of this Article VIII, a person shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful, if such person’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Corporation or another enterprise, or on information supplied to such person by the officers of the Corporation or another enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Corporation or another enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Corporation or another enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Corporation or another enterprise. The provisions of this Section 4 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the circumstances in which a person may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1 or Section 2 of this Article VIII, as the case may be.

 

21

 

 

Section 5.      Indemnification by a Court. Notwithstanding any contrary determination in the specific case under Section 3 of this Article VIII, and notwithstanding the absence of any determination thereunder, any director or officer may apply to the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any other court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Delaware for indemnification to the extent otherwise permissible under Section 1 or Section 2 of this Article VIII. The basis of such indemnification by a court shall be a determination by such court that indemnification of the director or officer is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1 or Section 2 of this Article VIII, as the case may be. Neither a contrary determination in the specific case under Section 3 of this Article VIII nor the absence of any determination thereunder shall be a defense to such application or create a presumption that the director or officer seeking indemnification has not met any applicable standard of conduct. Notice of any application for indemnification pursuant to this Section 5 shall be given to the Corporation promptly upon the filing of such application. If successful, in whole or in part, the director or officer seeking indemnification shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such application.

 

Section 6.      Expenses Payable in Advance. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a director or officer of the Corporation in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article VIII. Such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by former directors and officers or other employees and agents of the Corporation or by persons serving at the request of the Corporation as directors, officers, employees or agents of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the Corporation deems appropriate.

 

Section 7.      Nonexclusivity of Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article VIII shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, it being the policy of the Corporation that indemnification of the persons specified in Section 1 and Section 2 of this Article VIII shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law. A right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses arising under a provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws shall not be eliminated or impaired by an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws after the occurrence of the act or omission that is the subject of the civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification or advancement of expenses is sought, unless the provision in effect at the time of such act or omission explicitly authorizes such elimination or impairment after such action or omission has occurred. The provisions of this Article VIII shall not be deemed to preclude the indemnification of any person who is not specified in Section 1 or Section 2 of this Article VIII but whom the Corporation has the power or obligation to indemnify, under the provisions of the DGCL, or otherwise.

 

22

 

 

Section 8.      Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power or the obligation to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of this Article VIII.

 

Section 9.      Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Article VIII, references to “the Corporation” shall include, in addition to 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 or officers, so that any person who is or was a director or officer of such constituent corporation, or is or was a director or officer of such constituent corporation 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 VIII with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued. The term “another enterprise” as used in this Article VIII shall mean any other corporation or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise of which such person is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent. For purposes of this Article VIII, references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the Corporation” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director or officer with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation” as referred to in this Article VIII.

 

Section 10.      Survival of Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article VIII shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

 

23

 

 

Section 11.      Limitation on Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article VIII to the contrary, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification (which shall be governed by Section 5 of this Article VIII), the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any director or officer (or his or her heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives) or advance expenses in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

 

Section 12.      Indemnification of Employees and Agents. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, provide rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to employees and agents of the Corporation similar to those conferred in this Article VIII to directors and officers of the Corporation.

 

ARTICLE IX

 

AMENDMENTS

 

Section 1.      Amendments. These Bylaws may be altered, amended or repealed, in whole or in part, or new Bylaws may be adopted by the stockholders or by the Board of Directors; provided, however, that notice of such alteration, amendment, repeal or adoption of new Bylaws be contained in the notice of a meeting of the stockholders or Board of Directors, as the case may be, called for the purpose of acting upon any proposed alteration, amendment, repeal or adoption of new Bylaws. All such alterations, amendments, repeals or adoptions of new Bylaws must be approved by either the holders of a majority of the outstanding capital stock entitled to vote thereon or by a majority of the entire Board of Directors then in office. Any amendment to these Bylaws adopted by stockholders which specifies the votes that shall be necessary for the election of directors shall not be further amended or repealed by the Board of Directors.

 

Section 2.      Entire Board of Directors. As used in this Article IX and in these Bylaws generally, the term “entire Board of Directors” means the total number of directors which the Corporation would have if there were no vacancies.

In the event Indemnitee was, is, or becomes a party to or witness or other participant in, or is threatened to be made a party to or witness or other participant in, a Proceeding by reason of (or arising in part out of) Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee from and against any and all Expenses, liability or loss, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement, any interest, assessments, or other charges imposed thereon, and any federal, state, local, or foreign taxes imposed as a result of the actual or deemed receipt of any payments under this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended or interpreted (but in the case of any such amendment or interpretation, only to the extent that such amendment or interpretation permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than were permitted prior thereto). The parties hereto intend that this Agreement shall provide for indemnification in excess of that expressly permitted by statute.

 

(b)               Initiation of Proceeding. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification or advancement pursuant to this Agreement in connection with any Proceeding initiated by Indemnitee against the Company or any director or officer of the Company unless (i) the Company has joined in or the Board has consented to the initiation of such Proceeding; (ii) the Proceeding is one to enforce rights under Section 5; or (iii) the Proceeding is instituted after a Change in Control.

 

(c)               Expense Advances. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall advance any and all Expenses to Indemnitee (an “Expense Advance”) in connection with any Proceeding by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status within thirty (30) calendar days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements from Indemnitee requesting such advance or advances, whether prior to or after final disposition of any Proceeding. Advances shall be made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay the Expenses and without regard to Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification under the provisions of this Agreement. Such statement or statements shall reasonably evidence the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee and shall include or be preceded or accompanied by a written undertaking by or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay any Expenses advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified against such Expenses. Advances shall include any and all reasonable Expenses incurred pursuing an action to enforce this right of advancement if requested by Indemnitee. If Indemnitee has commenced legal proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Delaware to secure a determination that Indemnitee should be indemnified under applicable law, as provided in Section 4, any determination made by the Reviewing Party that Indemnitee would not be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law shall not be binding and Indemnitee shall not be required to reimburse the Company for any Expense Advance until a final judicial determination is made with respect thereto (as to which all rights of appeal therefrom have been exhausted or have lapsed). Indemnitee’s obligation to reimburse the Company for Expense Advances shall be unsecured and no interest shall be charged thereon.

 

3

 

 

(d)               Mandatory Indemnification. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Proceeding relating in whole or in part to Indemnitee’s Corporate Status or in defense of any issue or matter therein, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses incurred in connection therewith. For purposes of this Agreement and without limitation, the termination of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, or settlement of such claim prior to a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction with respect to such Proceeding, shall be deemed to be a successful result as to such claim, issue or matter.

 

(e)               Partial Indemnification. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of Expenses, but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion thereof to which Indemnitee is entitled. .

 

3.                  Reviewing Party.

 

(a)               Prior to any Change in Control, the person, persons or entity (the “Reviewing Party”) who shall determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification in the first instance shall be (a) the Board of Directors of the Company acting by a majority vote of Disinterested Directors, whether or not such majority constitutes a quorum of the Board of Directors; (b) a committee of Disinterested Directors designated by a majority vote of such directors, whether or not such majority constitutes a quorum; or (c) if there are no Disinterested Directors, or if the Disinterested Directors so direct, by Independent Counsel (as described below in Section 3(b)) in a written determination to the Board of Directors, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee.

 

4

 

 

(b)               After a Change in Control, the Reviewing Party shall be the Independent Counsel referred to below. With respect to all matters arising from a Change in Control (other than a Change in Control approved by a majority of the directors on the Board who were directors immediately prior to such Change in Control) concerning the rights of Indemnitee to indemnity payments and Expense Advances under this Agreement or any other agreement or under applicable law or the Company’s articles of incorporation or by-laws now or hereafter in effect relating to indemnification, the Company shall seek legal advice only from Independent Counsel selected by Indemnitee and approved by the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and who has not otherwise performed services for the Company or the Indemnitee (other than in connection with indemnification matters) within the last five years. The Independent Counsel shall not include any person who, under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, would have a conflict of interest in representing either the Company or Indemnitee in an action to determine Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement. Such counsel, among other things, shall determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification and render its written determination to the Company and Indemnitee. The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees of the Independent Counsel and to indemnify fully such counsel against any and all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), claims, liabilities, loss, and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the engagement of Independent Counsel pursuant hereto.

 

4.                  Indemnification Process and Appeal.

 

(a)               Indemnification Payment. Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification of Expenses, and shall receive payment thereof, from the Company in accordance with this Agreement within thirty (30) calendar days after Indemnitee has made written demand on the Company for indemnification (which written demand shall include such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification), unless the Reviewing Party has provided a written determination to the Company that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under applicable law. The Reviewing Party making the determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification shall notify Indemnitee of such written determination no later than two (2) business days thereafter.

 

(b)               Suit to Enforce Rights. If (i) no determination of entitlement to indemnification shall have been made within thirty (30) calendar days after Indemnitee has made a demand in accordance with Section 4(a), (ii) payment of indemnification pursuant to Section 4(a) is not made within thirty (30) calendar days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, (iii) the Reviewing Party determines pursuant to Section 3 that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, or (iv) Indemnitee has not received advancement of Expenses within thirty (30) calendar days after making such a request in accordance with Section 2(c), then Indemnitee shall have the right to enforce its rights under this Agreement by commencing litigation in any court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Delaware seeking an initial determination by the court or challenging any determination by the Reviewing Party or any aspect thereof. The Company hereby consents to service of process and to appear in any such proceeding. Any determination by the Reviewing Party not challenged by the Indemnitee on or before the first anniversary of the date of the Reviewing Party’s determination shall be binding on the Company and Indemnitee. The remedy provided for in this Section 4 shall be in addition to any other remedies available to Indemnitee in law or equity.

 

5

 

 

(c)               Defense to Indemnification, Burden of Proof, and Presumptions.

 

(i)                 To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law in making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the Reviewing Party shall presume that an Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if Indemnitee has submitted a request for indemnification in accordance with Section 4(a) of this Agreement, and the Company shall have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption in connection with the making by the Reviewing Party of any determination contrary to that presumption.

 

(ii)              It shall be a defense to any action brought by Indemnitee against the Company to enforce this Agreement (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for Expenses incurred in defending a Proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking has been tendered to the Company) that it is not permissible under applicable law for the Company to indemnify Indemnitee for the amount claimed.

 

(iii)            In connection with any action brought pursuant to Section 4(c)(ii) as to whether Indemnitee is entitled to be indemnified or to receive an Expense Advance hereunder, it shall be presumed that an Indemnitee is entitled to payment and the burden of proving Indemnitee is not entitled to payment under this Agreement shall be on the Company.

 

(iv)             Neither the failure of the Reviewing Party or the Company (including its Board, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action by Indemnitee that indemnification of the claimant is proper under the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the standard of conduct set forth in applicable law, nor an actual determination by the Reviewing Party or Company (including its Board, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the Indemnitee had not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be admissible as evidence in any such action for any purpose.

 

(v)               For purposes of this Agreement, the termination of any claim, action, suit, or proceeding, by judgment, order, settlement (whether with or without court approval), conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not create a presumption that Indemnitee did not meet any particular standard of conduct or have any particular belief or that a court has determined that indemnification is not permitted by applicable law.

 

5.                  Indemnification for Expenses Incurred in Enforcing Rights. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against any and all Expenses and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall advance such Expenses to Indemnitee on such terms and conditions as the Board of Directors deems appropriate, that are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any claim asserted against or action brought by Indemnitee for (i) enforcement of this Agreement, (ii) indemnification of Expenses or Expense Advances by the Company under this Agreement or any other agreement or under applicable law or the Company’s articles of incorporation or by-laws now or hereafter in effect relating to indemnification by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, and/or (iii) recovery under directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company.

 

6

 

 

6.                  Notification and Defense of Proceeding.

 

(a)               Notice. Promptly after receipt by Indemnitee of notice of the commencement of any Proceeding, Indemnitee will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this Agreement, notify the Company of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the Company will not relieve it from any liability that it may have to Indemnitee.

 

(b)               Defense. With respect to any Proceeding as to which Indemnitee notifies the Company of the commencement thereof, the Company will be entitled to participate in the Proceeding at its own expense and except as otherwise provided below, to the extent the Company so wishes, it may assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ his own counsel in such Proceeding, but all Expenses related thereto incurred after notice from the Company of its assumption of the defense shall be at Indemnitee’s expense unless: (i) the employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been authorized by the Company, (ii) Indemnitee has reasonably determined that there may be a conflict of interest between Indemnitee and the Company in the defense of the Proceeding, (iii) after a Change in Control, the employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been approved by the Independent Counsel, or (iv) the Company shall not within sixty (60) calendar days in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such Proceeding, in each of which case all Expenses of the Proceeding shall be borne by the Company; and (v) if the Company has selected counsel to represent Indemnitee and other current and former directors, officers and employees of the Company in the defense of a Proceeding, and a majority of such persons, including Indemnitee, reasonably object to such counsel selected by the Company pursuant to this Section 6(b), then such persons, including Indemnitee, shall be permitted to employ one (1) additional counsel of their choice and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Company; provided, however, that such counsel shall be chosen from amongst the list of counsel, if any, approved by any company with which the Company obtains or maintains insurance. In the event separate counsel is retained by an Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 6(b), the Company shall cooperate with Indemnitee with respect to the defense of the Proceeding, including making documents, witnesses and other reasonable information related to the defense available to the Indemnitee and such separate counsel pursuant to joint-defense agreements or confidentiality agreements, as appropriate. The Company shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Proceeding brought by or on behalf of the Company or as to which Indemnitee shall have made the determination provided for in (ii) above.

 

(c)               Settlement of Claims. The Company shall not be liable to indemnify Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise for any amounts paid in settlement of any Proceeding effected without the Company’s written consent, provided, however, that if a Change in Control has occurred, the Company shall be liable for indemnification of Indemnitee for amounts paid in settlement if the Independent Counsel has approved the settlement. The Company shall not settle any Proceeding in which Indemnitee is or could have been a party without Indemnitee’s written consent unless such settlement solely involves the payment of money (which shall be paid or compensated by the Company) and includes a complete and unconditional release of the Indemnitee from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding. Neither the Company nor the Indemnitee will unreasonably withhold their consent to any proposed settlement. The Company shall not be liable to indemnify the Indemnitee under this Agreement with regard to any judicial award if the Company was not given a reasonable and timely opportunity, at its expense, to participate in the defense of such action; the Company’s liability hereunder shall not be excused if participation in the Proceeding by the Company was barred by this Agreement.

7.                  Establishment of Trust. In the event of a Change in Control or a Potential Change in Control, the Company shall, upon written request by Indemnitee, create a Trust for the benefit of the Indemnitee and from time to time upon written request of Indemnitee shall fund the Trust in an amount sufficient to satisfy any and all Expenses reasonably anticipated at the time of each such request to be incurred in connection with investigating, preparing for, participating in, and/or defending any Proceeding. The amount or amounts to be deposited in the Trust pursuant to the foregoing funding obligation shall be determined by the Reviewing Party. The terms of the Trust shall provide that upon a Change in Control, (i) the Trust shall not be revoked or the principal thereof invaded, without the written consent of the Indemnitee, (ii) the Trustee shall advance, within ten business days of a request by the Indemnitee, any and all Expenses to the Indemnitee (and the Indemnitee hereby agrees to reimburse the Trust under the same circumstances for which the Indemnitee would be required to reimburse the Company under Section 2(c) of this Agreement), (iii) the Trust shall continue to be funded by the Company in accordance with the funding obligation set forth above, (iv) the Trustee shall promptly pay to the Indemnitee all amounts for which the Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, and (v) all unexpended funds in the Trust shall revert to the Company upon a final determination by the Reviewing Party or a court of competent jurisdiction, as the case may be, that the Indemnitee has been fully indemnified under the terms of this Agreement.

All income earned on the assets held in the Trust shall be reported as income by the Company for federal, state, local, and foreign tax purposes. The Company shall pay all costs of establishing and maintaining the Trust and shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), claims, liabilities, loss, and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the establishment and maintenance of the Trust.

The rights of Indemnitee hereunder shall be in addition to any other rights Indemnitee may have under the laws of the State of Delaware, the Company’s articles of incorporation, by-laws, applicable law, or otherwise. . To the extent that a change in applicable law (whether by statute or judicial decision) permits greater indemnification by agreement than would be afforded currently under the Company’s articles of incorporation, by-laws, applicable law, or this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties that Indemnitee enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change.

 

9.                  Liability Insurance. To the extent the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing directors’ or officers’ liability insurance, Indemnitee, if a director or officer of the Company, shall be covered by such policy or policies, in accordance with its or their terms.

No legal action shall be brought and no cause of action shall be asserted by or on behalf of the Company or any affiliate of the Company against Indemnitee, Indemnitee’s spouse, heirs, executors, or personal or legal representatives after the expiration of two (2) years from the date of accrual of such cause of action, or such longer period as may be required or permitted by federal or state law under the circumstances. Any claim or cause of action of the Company or its affiliate shall be extinguished and deemed released unless asserted by the timely filing of a legal action within such period; provided, however, that if any shorter period of limitations is otherwise applicable to any such cause of action the shorter period shall govern.

 

11.              Amendment of this Agreement. No supplement, modification, or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by both of the parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or not similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver. Except as specifically provided herein, no failure to exercise or any delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall constitute a waiver thereof. This Agreement shall supersede and replace any prior indemnification agreements entered into by and between the Company and Indemnitee and any such prior agreements shall be terminated upon execution of this Agreement.

In the event of payment under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and shall do everything that may be necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents necessary to enable the Company effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights.

14.              No Duplication of Payments.

15.              Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns, including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company, spouses, heirs, and personal and legal representatives. The Company shall require and cause any successor (whether direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise) to all, substantially all, or a substantial part, of the business and/or assets of the Company, by written agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Indemnitee, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place. This Agreement shall continue in effect regardless of whether Indemnitee continues to serve as a director, officer or employee of the Company or of any other enterprise at the Company’s request.

 

16.              Severability. If any provision (or portion thereof) of this Agreement shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void, or otherwise unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. Furthermore, to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of this Agreement containing any provision held to be invalid, void, or otherwise unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, void, or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested by the provision held invalid, void, or unenforceable.

 

17.              Governing Law and Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and to be performed in such State without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws. The Company and Indemnitee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: (a) agree that any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be brought only in the Delaware Court and not in any other state or federal court in the United States of America or any court in any other country; (b) consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court for purposes of any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement; (c) waive any objection to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in the Delaware Court; and (d) waive, and agree not to plead or to make, any claim that any such action or proceeding brought in the Delaware Court has been brought in an improper or inconvenient forum, or is subject (in whole or in part) to a jury trial.

(a)               Generally. Each of Intel and Mobileye agrees to provide, or cause to be provided, to the other, at any time, as soon as reasonably practicable after written request therefor, all reports and other Information regularly provided by one Party to the other prior to the IPO Date and any Information in the possession or under the control of such Party that the requesting Party reasonably needs, in each case, (i) to comply with reporting, disclosure, filing or other requirements imposed on the requesting Party (including under applicable securities laws) by a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the requesting Party, (ii) for use in any other judicial, regulatory, administrative or other proceeding or in order to satisfy audit, accounting, claims, regulatory, litigation or other similar requirements, (iii) to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any Inter-Company Agreement or (iv) during the period from the IPO Date until the Distribution Date and thereafter; all to the extent such Information and cooperation is necessary to comply with such reporting, filing and disclosure obligations, for the preparation of financial statements or completing an audit, and as reasonably necessary to conduct the ongoing businesses of Intel or Mobileye, as the case may be; provided, however, that in the event that any Party determines that any such provision of Information could be commercially detrimental, violate any law or agreement, or waive any attorney-client privilege, the Parties shall take all reasonable measures to permit the compliance with such obligations in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence. Each of Intel and Mobileye agree to make their respective personnel available to discuss the Information exchanged pursuant to this Section 3.2. Each Party will use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that Information provided to the other Party hereunder is accurate and complete.

After the expiration of Intel’s obligations to provide services pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement, Mobileye shall be solely responsible for its obligations under this Section 3.2(b).

 

(c)               Ownership of Information. Any Information owned by a Party that is provided to a requesting Party pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall be deemed to remain the property of the providing Party.

4

 

 

(d)               Record Retention. To facilitate the possible exchange of Information pursuant to this Section 3.2 and other provisions of this Agreement, each Party agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts for a period of seven (7) years after the first date upon which members of the Intel Group cease to own at least twenty percent (20%) of the then-outstanding number of shares of Common Stock and for such longer period as may be required by any Governmental Authority, any litigation matter, any applicable law or any Inter-Company Agreement (the “Retention Period”), to retain all Information in its respective possession or control, subject to compliance with such Party’s bona fide record retention policies and/or practices as in effect on the IPO Date. However, except as set forth in the Tax Sharing Agreement, at any time after the Distribution Date, each Party may amend its respective record retention policies at such Party’s discretion; provided, however, that if a Party desires to effect such an amendment during the Retention Period, then the amending Party must give thirty (30) days prior written notice of such change in the policy to the other Party to this Agreement. Each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to retain and not to destroy, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to destroy, any Information that exists on the IPO Date (other than Information that is permitted to be destroyed under the current respective bona fide record retention policies of each Party) and that falls under the categories listed in Section 3.2(a), without first notifying the other Party of the proposed destruction and giving the other Party the opportunity to take possession or make copies of such Information prior to such destruction.

 

(e)               Other Agreements Providing For Exchange of Information. The rights and obligations granted under this Section 3.2 are subject to any specific limitations, qualifications or additional provisions on the sharing, exchange or confidential treatment of Information set forth in this Agreement and any Inter-Company Agreement.

 

(f)                Production of Witnesses; Records; Cooperation. During the Retention Period, and except in the case of a legal or other proceeding by one Party against the other Party, each Party hereto shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to make available to each other Party, upon written request, the former, current and future directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents of such Party as witnesses and any books, records or other documents within its control or which it otherwise has the ability to make available, to the extent that any such person (giving consideration to business demands of such directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents) or books, records or other documents may reasonably be required in connection with any legal, administrative or other proceeding in which the requesting Party may from time to time be involved, regardless of whether such legal, administrative or other proceeding is a matter with respect to which indemnification may be sought hereunder. The requesting Party shall bear all costs and expenses in connection therewith.

In addition, prior to the issuance of any such press release or public statement that meets the criteria set forth in the preceding two sentences, the issuing party will consult with the other party regarding any changes (other than typographical or other similar minor changes) to such substantially final drafts or portions of such drafts.

Section 3.5            Privileged Matters.

 

(a)               Intel and Mobileye agree that their respective rights and obligations to maintain, preserve, assert or waive any or all privileges belonging to either corporation or their Subsidiaries with respect to the Mobileye Business or the business of Intel, including, but not limited to, the attorney-client and work product privileges (collectively, “Privileges”), shall be governed by the provisions of this Section 3.5. With respect to Privileged Information of Intel (as defined below), Intel shall have sole authority in perpetuity to determine whether to assert or waive any or all Privileges, and Mobileye shall take no action (nor permit any of its Subsidiaries to take action) without the prior written consent of Intel that could result in any waiver of any Privilege that could be asserted by Intel or any of its Subsidiaries under applicable law and this Agreement. With respect to Privileged Information of Mobileye (as defined below), Mobileye shall have sole authority in perpetuity to determine whether to assert or waive any or all Privileges, and Intel shall take no action (nor permit any of its Subsidiaries to take action) without the prior written consent of Mobileye that could result in any waiver of any Privilege that could be asserted by Mobileye or any of its Subsidiaries under applicable law and this Agreement. The rights and obligations created by this Section 3.5 shall apply to all Information as to which Intel or Mobileye or their respective Subsidiaries would be entitled to assert or has asserted a Privilege without regard to the effect, if any, of the Distribution (“Privileged Information”). Privileged Information of Intel includes but is not limited to: (i) all communications subject to a Privilege between counsel for Intel (which is limited to outside counsel retained by Intel and in-house counsel employed by Intel at the time) and any person who, at the time of the communication, was an employee of Intel, regardless of whether such employee was, is or becomes an employee of Mobileye or any of its Subsidiaries; and (ii) all information subject to a Privilege that counsel for Intel (which is limited to outside counsel retained by Intel and in-house counsel employed by Intel at the time) provided to Mobileye or any of its Subsidiaries regarding the Mobileye Business. Privileged Information of Mobileye includes but is not limited to all communications subject to a Privilege between counsel for the Mobileye Business (including in-house counsel who were Mobileye employees at the time, outside counsel retained by Mobileye, and current in-house counsel who were employees of Intel at the time the advice was given) and any person who, at the time of the communication, was an employee of Mobileye, regardless of whether such employee was, is or becomes an employee of Intel or any of its Subsidiaries (other than Mobileye and its Subsidiaries). In the event information could be construed as both Privileged Information of Intel and Privileged Information of Mobileye, Intel retains the Privileged Information, the information shall be considered solely Privileged Information of Intel, and Mobileye will not have authority to access to such information or waive such privilege.

 

(b)               Upon receipt by Intel or Mobileye, as the case may be, of any subpoena, discovery or other request from any third party that actually or arguably calls for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information of the other or if Intel or Mobileye, as the case may be, obtains knowledge that any current or former employee of Intel or Mobileye, as the case may be, has received any subpoena, discovery or other request from any third party that actually or arguably calls for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information of the other, Intel or Mobileye, as the case may be, shall promptly notify the other of the existence of the request and shall provide the other a reasonable opportunity to review the Information and to assert any rights it may have under this Section 3.5 or otherwise to prevent the production or disclosure of Privileged Information. Intel or Mobileye, as the case may be, will not produce or disclose to any third party any of the other’s Privileged Information under this Section 3.5 unless (a) the other has provided its express written consent to such production or disclosure or (b) a court of competent jurisdiction has entered a final order not subject to interlocutory appeal or review finding that the Information is not entitled to protection from disclosure under any applicable privilege, doctrine or rule. In all instances, Intel bears the obligation to seek protection from such disclosure or production of Intel Privileged Information. Similarly, in all instances, Mobileye bears the obligation to seek protection from such disclosure or production of Mobileye Privileged Information.

(c)               Intel’s transfer of books and records pertaining to the Mobileye Business and other Information to Mobileye, if any, Intel’s agreement to permit Mobileye to obtain or retain Information existing prior to the IPO Date, Mobileye’s transfer of books and records and other Information pertaining to Intel, if any, and Mobileye’s agreement to permit Intel to obtain or retain Information existing prior to the IPO Date are made in reliance on Intel’s and Mobileye’s respective agreements, as set forth in Section 3.4 and this Section 3.5, to maintain the confidentiality of such Information and to take the steps provided herein for the preservation of all Privileges that may belong to or be asserted by Intel or Mobileye, as the case may be. The fact that Intel Privileged Information may be in the possession of Mobileye after the IPO date or that Intel Privileged Information may be transferred from Intel to Mobileye as part of Intel’s transfer of books and records pertaining to the Mobileye Business and other Information to Mobileye shall not be asserted by Intel or Mobileye to constitute, or otherwise be deemed, a waiver of any Privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Section 3.5 or otherwise. Intel Privileged Information remains Intel’s property whether or not it remains in the physical possession of Mobileye post-IPO for any reason. Conversely, Mobileye Privileged Information remains Mobileye’s property whether or not it remains in the physical possession of Intel post-IPO for any reason. Further, both Intel and Mobileye agree to promptly return or destroy any Privileged Information belonging to the other hereunder, including any copies or information derived thereof, upon receipt of a request by the other Party. The access to Information, witnesses and individuals being granted pursuant to Section 3.2 and Section 3.3 and the disclosure to Mobileye and Intel of Privileged Information relating to the Mobileye Business or the business of Intel pursuant to this Agreement shall not be asserted by Intel or Mobileye to constitute, or otherwise be deemed, a waiver of any Privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Section 3.5 or otherwise. Nothing in this Agreement shall operate to reduce, minimize or condition the rights granted to Intel and Mobileye in, or the obligations imposed upon Intel and Mobileye by, this Section 3.5.

 

Section 3.6            Future Litigation and Other Proceedings. In the event that Mobileye (or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective officers or directors) or Intel (or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective officers or directors) at any time after the date hereof initiates or becomes subject to any litigation or other proceedings before any governmental authority or arbitration panel that involves issues relevant to the Parties’ past relationship while Mobileye was owned by Intel, the IPO, or post-IPO engagement between the Parties with respect to which the Parties have no prior agreements (as to indemnification or otherwise), the Party (and its Subsidiaries and its and their respective officers and directors) that has not initiated and is not subject to such litigation or other proceedings shall comply, at the other Party’s expense, with any reasonable requests by the other Party for assistance in connection with such litigation or other proceedings (including by way of provision of information and making available of associates or employees within their control as witnesses). In the event that Mobileye (or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective officers or directors) and Intel (or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective officers or directors) at any time after the date hereof initiate or become subject to any litigation or other proceedings before any governmental authority or arbitration panel that involves issues relevant to the Parties’ past relationship while Mobileye was owned by Intel, the IPO, or post-IPO engagement between the Parties with respect to which the Parties have no prior agreements (as to indemnification or otherwise), each Party (and its officers and directors) shall, at their own expense, cooperate on their strategies and actions with respect to such litigation or other proceedings to the extent such cooperation would not be detrimental to their respective interests and shall comply, at the expense of the requesting Party, with any reasonable requests of the other Party for assistance in connection therewith (including by way of provision of information and making available of employees or associates within their control as witnesses).

Section 3.7            Mail and other Communications. After the IPO Date, each of Intel and Mobileye may receive mail, facsimiles, packages and other communications properly belonging to the other. Accordingly, at all times after the IPO Date, each of Intel and Mobileye authorizes the other to receive and open all mail, packages and other communications received by it and not unambiguously intended for the other Party or any of the other Party’s officers or directors, and to retain the same to the extent that they relate to the business of the receiving Party or, to the extent that they do not relate to the business of the receiving Party, the receiving Party shall promptly deliver such mail, telegrams, packages or other communications, including, without limitation, notices of any liens or encumbrances on any asset transferred to Mobileye in connection with its separation from Intel, (or, in case the same relate to both businesses, copies thereof) to the other Party as provided for in Section 7.6 hereof. The provisions of this Section 3.7 are not intended to, and shall not, be deemed to constitute (a) an authorization by either Intel or Mobileye to permit the other to accept service of process on its behalf and neither Party is or shall be deemed to be the agent of the other for service of process purposes or (b) a waiver of any Privilege with respect to Privileged Information contained in such mail, telegrams, packages or other communications.

 

Section 3.8            Employment Matters.

 

(a)               For a period of two (2) years following the IPO Date, neither the Intel Group nor the Mobileye Group will, directly or indirectly, solicit active employees of the other without its consent; provided that each Party agrees to give such consent if it believes, in good faith, that consent is necessary to avoid the resignation of an employee from one Party that the other Party would wish to employ. Intel shall be deemed to have given its consent to the solicitation and hiring of the Intel Transferees (as defined in the Employee Matters Agreement) by the Mobileye Group.

 

(b)               All outstanding options to purchase shares of Intel and all other Intel equity awards held by Mobileye Group employees at the IPO Date (the “Remaining Intel Awards”) will continue to be outstanding until the earlier of (i) the date the award is exchanged pursuant to any issuer exchange offer undertaken by Intel and Mobileye, (ii) the date the award is exercised or expires under the terms of the applicable award agreement or (iii) the date the Remaining Intel Award is cancelled as a result of a Mobileye Group employee experiencing an employment termination within the meaning of the applicable award agreement governing such award or otherwise or, if later, the end of any post-termination exercise period specified in the award agreement or by the plans’ administrative committees.

 

Section 3.9            Payment of Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Inter-Company Agreements or any other agreement between the Parties relating to the IPO or the Distribution, (i) all costs and expenses of the Parties which are capitalizable in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and applicable U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules in connection with the IPO (including costs associated with drafting this Agreement, the Inter-Company Agreements and the documents relating to the formation of Mobileye) shall be for the account of Mobileye and paid net of IPO proceeds; (ii) all costs and expenses of the Parties in connection with the Distribution shall be for the account of and paid by Mobileye; and (iii) all costs and expenses of the Parties incurred prior to or upon the consummation of the IPO and which are not capitalizable in accordance with GAAP and applicable SEC rules, and all costs and expenses of the Parties in connection with any matter not relating to the IPO or the Distribution, shall be paid by and for the account of the Party which is the primary beneficiary of the relevant services (as reasonably agreed between the Parties) and shared costs and expenses will be apportioned between the Parties in such proportions as may be reasonably agreed between the Parties.  With respect to costs and expenses for services incurred prior to or upon the consummation of the IPO, if the Parties determine that the Party who is not the primary beneficiary of a service nevertheless initially paid for such service, the paying Party shall be reimbursed from the IPO proceeds.  With respect to costs and expenses incurred following the consummation of the IPO, each of the Parties will obtain the other Party’s approval in writing (email being acceptable) prior to incurring expenses which would be expected to be for the account of such other Party.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mobileye and Intel shall each be responsible for their own internal fees, costs and expenses (e.g., salaries of personnel) incurred in connection with the IPO and the Distribution.

Section 3.10        Dispute Resolution.

 

(a)               Pre-Arbitration Resolution. Except as provided in Section 3.10(c)(ii), any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement will be resolved as follows: a Party will send notice of the dispute, including a detailed description of the dispute and relevant supporting documents. Senior management for each Party will then try to resolve the dispute. If the Parties do not resolve the dispute within 30 calendar days after the dispute notice, either Party may send notice of a demand for mediation. The Parties will then try to resolve the dispute with a mediator.

 

(b)               Arbitration. If the Parties do not resolve the dispute within 60 calendar days after the mediation demand, either Party may send notice of the specific issues to be arbitrated and initiate arbitration by filing a Demand for Arbitration with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). Except as provided in Section 3.10(c)(ii), a Party may not seek relief in court. The Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA in effect on the date a Party files a Demand for Arbitration (the “AAA Rules”) will apply, except as follows:

 

(i)            Seat and Law. Wilmington, Delaware, will be the seat of arbitration and the location of the proceedings, which will be conducted in English. Wilmington, Delaware and United States law will be the law of the arbitration agreement (i.e., Section 3.10 (Dispute Resolution)).

 

(ii)            Limitations on Relief. Notwithstanding R-47 (Scope of Award), the arbitrator may not award (A) any remedy that prohibits a party or its customers from manufacturing, using, selling, or importing that party’s products, (B) any non-monetary relief for misappropriation of trade secrets or breach of confidentiality obligations, or (C) any remedy that requires a party to license any intellectual property rights. Neither the arbitrator nor an emergency arbitrator (as described in R-38 of the AAA Rules) may order conservatory, interim, or emergency measures. R-37 (Interim Measures) and R-38 (Emergency Measures of Protection) will not apply.

 

(iii)            Service. R-43 (Service of Notice and Communications) will not apply with regard to service of a Demand for Arbitration, which must be served in the same manner as is required to serve a summons and complaint under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

Section 3.11        Most Favored Status. Prior to the first date on which members of the Intel Group cease to beneficially own twenty percent (20%) or more of the aggregate number of shares of the then outstanding Common Stock, Mobileye agrees to sell to Intel or any member of the Intel Group upon request its commercially available products, including EyeQ chips, for internal use by Intel or members of the Intel Group, but not for resale thereof as standalone products or bundled with any products of the Intel Group or any third party. In the case of the purchase or sale of products for internal use, each Party further agrees to hold the other in most favored status. For purposes of this Agreement, “most favored status” means, solely and exclusively, that all of the product prices, terms, warranties and benefits provided by Intel to Mobileye, on the one hand, and Mobileye to Intel, on the other hand, shall be comparable to or better than the equivalent terms being offered by the Party providing the products to any single, present customer of such Party. If a Party shall enter into arrangements with any other customer of such Party providing such customer more favorable terms, this Agreement shall thereupon be deemed amended to provide the same terms to the other Party retroactive to the date of such third-party agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Party shall be obligated to return any monies paid prior to such amendment, or to forego the receipt of any payments then accrued under the then-current arrangement.

 

Section 3.12        Governmental Approvals. To the extent that any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement requires any Governmental Approvals, the Parties will use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any such Governmental Approvals.

(iii)            the absence of defenses or freedom from counterclaims with respect to any claim transferred, or to be transferred, to Mobileye; provided, however, that neither Intel nor its Subsidiaries have any counterclaims with respect to any claim transferred, or to be transferred, to Mobileye; or

 

(iv)            the legal sufficiency of any assignment, document or instrument delivered hereunder to convey title to any asset or thing of value upon its execution, delivery and filing.

 

14

 

 

Except as may expressly be set forth herein or in any Inter-Company Agreement, all assets transferred, or to be transferred, to Mobileye have been, or shall be, as the case may be, transferred “AS IS, WHERE IS” and Mobileye shall bear the economic and legal risk that any conveyance shall prove to be insufficient to vest in Mobileye good and marketable title, free and clear of any lien, claim, equity or other encumbrance.

 

(b)       Mobileye does not, in this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document contemplated by this Agreement, make any representation as to, warranty of or covenant with respect to:

 

(i)            the value of any asset or thing of value transferred, or to be transferred, to Intel;

(iv)            the legal sufficiency of any assignment, document or instrument delivered hereunder to convey title to any asset or thing of value upon its execution, delivery and filing.

 

Except as may expressly be set forth herein or in any Inter-Company Agreement, all assets transferred, or to be transferred, to Intel have been, or shall be, as the case may be, transferred “AS IS, WHERE IS” and Intel shall bear the economic and legal risk that any conveyance shall prove to be insufficient to vest in Intel good and marketable title, free and clear of any lien, claim, equity or other encumbrance.

(c)               Representations and Warranties. Intel hereby represents and warrants to Mobileye as of [the date hereof]/[the date of the Contribution and Subscription Agreement, by and between Intel Overseas Funding Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly owned Subsidiary of Intel, and Mobileye], as follows:

 

(i)            Cyclops Holdings Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Cyclops”), (A) is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law; and (B) has the requisite corporate power and authority to conduct its business as it is presently being conducted.

Section 3.15        Minimum Cash Requirement. Intel shall ensure that immediately after completion of the IPO and on a pro forma basis after all expenses of such transaction have been paid in accordance with Section 3.9 (and after giving effect to any repayment of any indebtedness by Mobileye and its Subsidiaries to Intel and its other Affiliates and any other transactions contemplated to occur substantially concurrently with the IPO), Mobileye shall have $[●] in cash, cash equivalents or marketable securities.

 

Section 3.16        Notifiable Transactions. Without prejudice to Section 2.4, Intel agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide three (3) months’ advance notice to the board of directors of Mobileye in the event that Intel intends to pursue a transaction (a “Notifiable Transaction”) which is reasonably expected to cause Intel Group’s Ownership Percentage to fall below fifty percent (50%), it being understood that Intel may provide such notice at a preliminary stage when it is considering pursuing such a transaction, but no such transaction is imminent or probable at such time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Intel shall, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine whether to proceed with all or part of a Notifiable Transaction, the date of the consummation of such Notifiable Transaction and all terms of such Notifiable Transaction, including, without limitation, the form, structure and terms of any transaction(s) and/or offering(s) to effect such Notifiable Transaction and the timing of and conditions to the consummation of such Notifiable Transaction. In addition, Intel may at any time and from time to time until the Notifiable Transaction Date, modify or change the terms of such Notifiable Transaction, including, without limitation, by accelerating or delaying the timing of the consummation of all or part of such Notifiable Transaction. No such notice shall be required, and no such transaction shall be deemed to be a Notifiable Transaction, with respect to the consideration by Intel of a potential sale of a business transaction involving Mobileye (whether by merger, share sale, asset sale or similar transaction).

(a)               The Holders shall have the right after the date that is 180 days after the IPO Date (or such earlier date (i) as would permit Mobileye to cause any filings required hereunder to be filed on the 180th day after the date hereof and (ii) as is permitted by waiver under the Underwriting Agreement) to request in writing (a “Request”) that Mobileye register such portion of such Holders’ Registrable Securities as shall be specified in the Request on Form S-1 or any similar long-form Registration Statement (a “Long-Form Registration”) or (y) on Form S-3 or any similar short-form Registration Statement, which shall include a prospectus supplement to an existing Form S-3 (a “Short-Form Registration”) at such time that Mobileye qualifies to use such short form Registration Statement (any such requested Long-Form Registration or Short-Form Registration, a “Demand Registration” and the Holder submitting such Demand Registration, the “Initiating Holder”) by filing with the Commission, as soon as practicable thereafter, but not later than the 30th day (or the 45th day in case of a Long-Form Registration) after the receipt of such a Request by Mobileye, a registration statement (a “Demand Registration Statement”) covering such Registrable Securities. A request shall specify (i) the aggregate number of such Initiating Holders’ Registrable Securities requested to be registered in such Demand Registration, (ii) the intended method of disposition in connection with such Demand Registration, to the extent then known, and (iii) the identity of the Initiating Holder. Mobileye shall (i) within 10 days of the receipt of such request, give written notice of such Demand Registration (the “Company Notice”) to all Holders other than the relevant Initiating Holder (the “Eligible Holders”) and to any other Person who holds shares of Mobileye Capital Stock entitled to be included therein pursuant to a contractual obligation (such other Persons, the “Other Holders”), (ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to file a Registration Statement in respect of such Demand Registration within 30 days of receipt of the request in case of a Short-Form Registration and within 45 days of receipt of the request in case of a Long-Form Registration, and (iii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Demand Registration Statement to become effective as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. Mobileye shall include in such Registration all Registrable Securities that the Initiating Holder, the Eligible Holders and the Other Holders request to be included within the 10 Business Days following their receipt of the Company Notice.

 

(b)               Mobileye shall not be obligated to effect more than (i) two (2) Long-Form Registrations in any calendar year, (ii) from and after the time Mobileye becomes eligible for a Short- Form Registration, the Holders shall be entitled to effect three (3) Short- Form Registrations per calendar year in the aggregate and not any Long-Form Registrations. For purposes of the preceding sentence, a Demand Registration shall be deemed to have occurred if the Demand Registration Statement relating thereto (i) has become effective under the Securities Act and (ii) has remained effective for a period of at least 180 calendar days (or such shorter period in which all Registrable Securities of the participating Holders included in such registration have actually been sold thereunder or withdrawn) or, if such Demand Registration Statement relates to an Underwritten Offering (as defined below), such longer period as, in the opinion of counsel for the underwriter(s), a prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales of Registrable Securities by an underwriter or dealer (the applicable period, the “Demand Period”) and(iii) at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the Registrable Securities that the Initial Holder and the Eligible Holders sought to be included in such Demand Registration are included. No request for a Demand Registration may be made by the Holders to the extent that a Shelf Registration Statement (as defined below) has been effected pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.2 and remains effective as of the date of the Request, registers the Registrable Securities subject to such Request and permits the intended method of disposition of such Registrable Security as set forth in such Request; provided that any such Request may instead be effected as an Underwritten Shelf Takedown Request.

(c)               Mobileye may not include in a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof shares of Mobileye Capital Stock for the account of Mobileye or any Subsidiary of Mobileye. If the Underwriters’ Representative of a proposed Underwritten Offering described in this Section 4.1 shall have informed Mobileye (or, in the case of a Demand Registration not being underwritten, the board of directors of Mobileye determines in its reasonable discretion) that, in its view, the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration (including any securities that the Other Holders propose to be included that are not Registrable Securities) exceeds the largest number of shares that can be sold without being likely to have an adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the shares offered in such offering (the “Maximum Offering Size”), then Mobileye shall include in such Demand Registration: (i) first, all Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by the Initiating Holder and the Eligible Holders, and (ii) thereafter, and only if all the securities referred to in clause (i) have been included, any securities proposed to be registered for the account of any Other Holders with such priorities among them as Mobileye shall determine.

 

(d)               No Holder may participate in any Underwritten Offering under Section 4.1 hereof and no other Person shall be permitted to participate in any such offering pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof unless it completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, custody agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents required under the customary terms of such underwriting arrangements. In connection with any Underwritten Offering under Section 4.1 hereof, each participating Holder, Mobileye and, each other Person desiring to participate in such Underwritten Offering shall be a party to the underwriting agreement with the underwriters and may be required to make certain customary representations and warranties with respect to their ownership of Registrable Securities being included in such Underwritten Offering and provide certain customary indemnifications for the benefits of the underwriters with respect to the information they have provided for inclusion in the Registration Statement; provided that the Holders and such Persons shall not be required to make representations and warranties with respect to Mobileye or its business and operations and shall not be required to agree to any indemnity or contribution provisions less favorable to them than as are set forth herein.

 

Section 4.2            Shelf Registration.

 

(a)               If, at any time beginning one hundred eighty (180) days after the IPO Date, Mobileye shall have received a request by the Holders (a “Shelf Offering Request”), for the filing of a registration statement on Form S-3 or a prospectus supplement to an existing shelf registration statement (as applicable, the “Shelf Registration Statement”) for the registration and resale under Rule 415 of the Securities Act pursuant to this Section 4.2, and at such time Mobileye is eligible to file a registration statement on Form S-3, Mobileye shall, within sixty (60) days of such Shelf Offering Request, file with the Commission a Shelf Registration Statement relating to the offer and sale of all Registrable Securities by the Holders from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by the Holders and set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and, as promptly as practicable thereafter, Mobileye shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act (or if Mobileye qualifies to do so, it shall file an automatic Shelf Registration Statement in response to any such request).

 

18

 

 

(b)               Mobileye shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act (including, if necessary, by renewing or refiling a Shelf Registration Statement prior to expiration of the existing Shelf Registration Statement or by filing with the Commission a post-effective amendment or a supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement or any document incorporated therein by reference or by filing any other required document or otherwise supplementing or amending the Shelf Registration Statement, if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by Mobileye for such Shelf Registration Statement or by the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities or blue sky laws, or any rules and regulations thereunder) in order to permit the prospectus forming a part thereof to be usable by the Holders until the earlier of (i) the date as of which all Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement or another Registration Statement filed under the Securities Act (but in no event prior to the applicable period referred to in Section 4(a)(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 thereunder) and (ii) the date as of which each of the Holders is permitted to sell its Registrable Securities without registration pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act without volume limitation or other restrictions on transfer thereunder (such period of effectiveness, the “Shelf Period”). Subject to Section 4.5, Mobileye shall not be deemed to have used its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective during the Shelf Period if Mobileye voluntarily takes any action or omits to take any action that would result in Holders of Registrable Securities covered thereby not being able to offer and sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement during the Shelf Period, unless such action or omission is required by applicable law or is in connection with a Shelf Suspension (as defined below).

 

(c)               For any offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement for which the value of Registrable Securities proposed to be offered is at least fifty million dollars ($50,000,000), if a Holder so elects, such offering shall be in the form of an Underwritten Offering, and Mobileye shall amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement for such purpose. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, if at any time during which the Shelf Registration Statement is in effect a Holder elects to offer Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement in the form of an Underwritten Offering, then such Holder shall give written notice (which notice may be given by email) to Mobileye of such intention at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date on which such Underwritten Offering is anticipated to launch, specifying the number of Registrable Securities for which the Holder is requesting registration under this Section 4.2(c) and the other material terms of such Underwritten Offering to the extent known (such request, an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown Request,” and any Underwritten Offering conducted pursuant thereto, an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”), and Mobileye shall promptly, but in no event later than the Business Day following the receipt of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown Request, give written notice (which notice may be given by email to the email address for each Other Holder on file from time to time) of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown Request (such notice, an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown Notice”) to the Other Holders and such Underwritten Shelf Takedown Notice shall offer the Other Holders the opportunity to register as part of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown such number of Registrable Securities as each such Other Holder may request in writing (which request may be made by email to Mobileye). Subject to Section 4.5, Mobileye and the Holders making the Underwritten Shelf Takedown Request shall cause the underwriter(s) to include as part of the Underwritten Shelf Takedown all Registrable Securities that are requested to be included therein by any of the Other Holders within twenty-four (24) hours after the receipt by such Other Holders of any such notice, all to the extent necessary to permit the disposition of the Registrable Securities to be so sold; provided that all such Other Holders requesting to participate in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown must sell their Registrable Securities to the underwriters selected on the same terms and conditions as apply to the Holders; provided, further, that, if at any time after making an Underwritten Shelf Takedown Request and prior to the launch of the Underwritten Shelf Takedown, the Holders shall determine for any reason not to proceed with or to delay such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, the Holders shall give written notice to Mobileye of such determination and Mobileye shall give written notice of the same to each Other Holder and, thereupon, (A) in the case of a determination not to proceed, Mobileye and the Holders shall be relieved of their respective obligations to cause the underwriter(s) to include any Registrable Securities of the Other Holders as part of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown (but Mobileye shall not be relieved from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses in connection therewith), without prejudice, however, to the other registration rights contained herein, and (B) in the case of a determination to delay such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, Mobileye and such Holders shall be relieved of their respective obligations to cause the underwriter(s) to include any Registrable Securities of the Other Holders as part of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown for the same period as the Holders determine to delay such Underwritten Shelf Takedown. The Holders shall be entitled to effect three (3) Underwritten Shelf Takedowns per calendar year and each such Underwritten Shelf Takedown will be deemed to be a Demand Registration for purposes of the limit on Short-Form Registrations described above in Section 4.1(b).

 

19

 

 

(d)               If the managing underwriter(s) of an Underwritten Shelf Takedown advises Mobileye or the Holders requesting the Underwritten Shelf Takedown that, in the view of such managing underwriter(s), the number of shares of Class A common stock that the Holders and such Other Holders intend to include in such registration exceeds the Maximum Offering Size, Mobileye and the Holders making the Underwritten Shelf Takedown Request shall cause the underwriter(s) to include in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, in the following priority, up to the Maximum Offering Size: (i) first, to the Holders, and (ii) thereafter, and only if all of the securities referred to in clause (i) have been included, any securities proposed to be registered for the account of Mobileye and any Other Holders with such priorities among them as the Holders requesting the Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall determine.

 

Section 4.3            Piggyback Registration.

 

(a)               In the event that Mobileye at any time after the IPO Date proposes to (i) register any of its equity securities or securities convertible into or exchangeable for its equity securities (collectively, “Other Securities”) under the Securities Act, either in connection with a primary offering for cash for the account of Mobileye, a secondary offering or a combined primary and secondary offering, or (ii) effect an Underwritten Offering of its own securities pursuant to an effective Shelf Registration Statement (other than an Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section 4.1 or Section 4.2) (each, a “Piggyback Registration”), whether for its own account or for the account of others, Mobileye will give written notice (a “Company Piggyback Notice”) to all Holders of Registrable Securities at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the initial filing of a registration statement with the Commission pertaining thereto, informing such Holders of its intent to file such registration statement and the proposed date of filing of such registration statement, the Holders’ right to request the registration of the Registrable Securities held by the Holders, the proposed means of distribution and the proposed managing underwriter or underwriters (if any and if known). Upon the written request of the Holders made within seven (7) Business Days after any such Company Piggyback Notice is given (which request shall specify the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Holder, Mobileye will use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which Mobileye has been so requested to register by the Holders to the extent required to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended methods of distribution thereof or, in the case of a registration which is intended to effect a primary offering for cash for the account of Mobileye, in accordance with Mobileye’s intended method of distribution) of the Registrable Securities so requested to be registered, including, if necessary, by filing with the Commission a post-effective amendment or a supplement to the registration statement filed by Mobileye or the related prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or by filing any other required document or otherwise supplementing or amending the registration statement filed by Mobileye, if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by Mobileye for such registration statement or by the Securities Act, any state securities or blue sky laws, or any rules and regulations thereunder; provided, however, that if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any Other Securities and prior to the Effective Date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, Mobileye shall determine for any reason not to register or to delay such registration of the Other Securities, Mobileye shall give written notice of such determination to each Holder of Registrable Securities and, thereupon, (i) in the case of a determination not to register, Mobileye shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses incurred in connection therewith or from Mobileye’s obligations with respect to any subsequent registration) and (ii) in the case of a determination to delay such registration, Mobileye shall be permitted to delay registration of any Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration statement for the same period as the delay in registering such Other Securities.

 

(b)               If, in connection with a registration statement pursuant to this Section 4.3, the Underwriters’ Representative of the offering registered thereon shall inform Mobileye in writing that in its opinion there is a Maximum Offering Size and if such registration statement relates to an offering initiated by Mobileye or Other Holders of Common Stock being offered for the account of Mobileye or of Other Holders, Mobileye shall include in such registration: (i) first, the number of shares Mobileye or the applicable Other Holders propose to offer in connection with such registration statement, (ii) second, and only if all of the securities referred to in clause (i) have been included, all Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by any Holders, and (iii) third, and only if all of the securities referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) have been included, any additional securities proposed to be registered for the account of any Other Holders other than those holders referred to in clause (i) with such priorities among them as Mobileye shall determine. In the event that such Underwriters’ Representative advises that less than all of such Requested Securities may be included in such offering, the Holders of Registrable Securities may withdraw their request for registration of their Registrable Securities under this Section 4.3 and not less than 90 days subsequent to the Effective Date of the registration statement for the registration of such Other Securities request that such registration be effected as a registration under Section 4.1 or Section 4.2 to the extent permitted thereunder.

(c)               No Holder may participate in any Underwritten Offering under this Section 4.3 and no other Person shall be permitted to participate in any such offering pursuant to this Section 4.3 unless it completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, custody agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents required under the customary terms of such underwriting arrangements. In connection with any Underwritten Offering under this Section 4.3, each participating Holder and Mobileye and each such other Person desiring to participate in such Underwritten Offering shall be a party to the underwriting agreement with the underwriters of such offering and may be required to make certain customary representations and warranties with respect to their ownership of Registrable Securities being included in such Underwritten Offering and provide certain customary indemnifications for the benefits of the underwriters with respect to the information they have provided for inclusion in the Registration Statement; provided that the Holders and such other Persons shall not be required to make representations and warranties with respect to Mobileye or their business and operations and shall not be required to agree to any indemnity or contribution provisions less favorable to them than as are set forth herein.

 

(d)               Mobileye shall not be required to effect any registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 4.3 incidental to (i) the registration of any of its securities on a Registration Statement on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any successor form to such forms, (ii) a registration of Mobileye Capital Stock solely relating to an offering and sale to employees or directors of Mobileye pursuant to any employee share plan or other employee benefit plan arrangement, or (iii) a registration in connection with a direct or indirect acquisition by Mobileye or one of its Subsidiaries of another Person or a similar business combination transaction, however structured.

 

(e)               The registration rights granted pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.3 shall be in addition to the registration rights granted pursuant to Section 4.1 and Section 4.2. No registration of Registrable Securities effected under this Section 4.3 shall relieve Mobileye of its obligation to effect registrations of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 4.1 or Section 4.2.

 

Section 4.4            Expenses. Except as provided herein, Mobileye shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with all registrations of Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Holder of Registrable Securities and Mobileye shall be responsible for its own internal administrative, its own legal costs and similar costs, which shall not constitute Registration Expenses.

 

Section 4.5            Blackout Period. Mobileye shall be entitled to elect that a registration statement not be usable, or that the filing or effectiveness thereof be delayed beyond the time otherwise required, for a reasonable period of time not to exceed sixty (60) days in succession or ninety (90) days in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period (a “Blackout Period”), if the board of directors of Mobileye reasonably determines in good faith that it is required to disclose in the registration statement a financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or other similar transaction or other material event or circumstance affecting Mobileye or its securities, and that the disclosure of such information at such time would be detrimental to Mobileye or the holders of its equity interests, and Mobileye promptly gives the Holders of Registrable Securities written notice of such determination, and promptly gives the Holders of Registrable Securities written notice at the conclusion of such Blackout Period. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that an election by Mobileye that a registration statement for the registration and distribution of Registrable Securities shall not be usable, or shall be delayed, during a Blackout Period shall not act to reduce the period during which such registration statement shall remain effective pursuant to the terms of this Article IV.

Section 4.6            Obligations of Mobileye. In connection with any registration pursuant to Section 4.1, Section 4.2 or Section 4.3, subject to the provisions of such Sections:

 

(a)               Prior to filing a Registration Statement covering Registrable Securities or prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, Mobileye shall furnish to each Holder and each underwriter, if any, of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement copies of such Registration Statement as proposed to be filed, and thereafter Mobileye shall furnish to such Holder and underwriter, if any, without charge such number of copies of such Registration Statement, each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus and any summary prospectus) and any other prospectus filed under Rule 424 or Rule 430A under the Securities Act and such other documents as such Holder or underwriter may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder. Each Holder shall have the right to request that Mobileye modify any information contained in such Registration Statement, amendment and supplement thereto pertaining to such Holder and Mobileye shall use all reasonable efforts to comply with such request; provided that Mobileye shall not have any obligation to so modify any information if Mobileye reasonably expects that so doing would cause the prospectus to contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

 

(b)               In connection with any filing of any Registration Statement or prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, Mobileye shall cause such document (i) to comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder and (ii) with respect to information supplied by or on behalf of Mobileye for inclusion in the Registration Statement, to not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

 

(c)               Mobileye shall promptly notify each Holder of such Registrable Securities and the underwriter(s) and, if requested by such Holder or the underwriter(s), confirm in writing, when a Registration Statement has become effective and when any post-effective amendments and supplements thereto become effective.

 

(d)               Mobileye shall furnish counsel for each underwriter, if any, and for the Holders of such Registrable Securities with copies of any written comments from the Commission or any state securities authority or any written request by the Commission or any state securities authority for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or prospectus or for additional information generally.

 

(e)               After the filing of the Registration Statement, Mobileye shall (i) cause the related prospectus to be supplemented by any required prospectus supplement, and, as so supplemented, to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act, (ii) comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement during the applicable period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Holders set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement to such prospectus and (iii) promptly notify each Holder holding Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement of any stop order issued or threatened by the SEC or any state securities commission and use reasonable best efforts to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if entered.

 

22

 

  

(f)                Mobileye shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as any Holder holding such Registrable Securities reasonably (in light of such Holder’s intended plan of distribution) requests and (ii) cause such Registrable Securities to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of Mobileye and do any and all other acts and things that may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such Holder to consummate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder; provided that Mobileye shall not be required to (A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 4.6(f), (B) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (C) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction.

 

(g)               Mobileye shall use reasonable best efforts to list such Registrable Securities on the principal securities exchange on which Mobileye’s Class A common stock is then listed and provide a transfer agent, registrar and CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of such Registration Statement.

 

(h)               Mobileye shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with each Holder and the underwriter(s) or managing underwriter(s), if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold and not bearing any restrictive legends; and enable such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations (consistent with the provisions of the governing documents thereof) and registered in such names as each Holder or the underwriter(s) or managing underwriter(s), if any, may reasonably request at least two (2) Business Days prior to any sale of Registrable Securities.

 

(i)                 Mobileye shall immediately notify each Holder holding such Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the occurrence of an event requiring the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and promptly prepare and make available to each such Holder and file with the SEC any such supplement or amendment subject to any suspension rights contained herein.

 

(j)                 (1) The requesting Holder(s) shall have the right to select an underwriter(s) in connection with any Underwritten Offering resulting from the exercise of a Demand Registration or Underwritten Shelf Takedown reasonably acceptable to Mobileye and (2) Mobileye shall have the right to select underwriter(s) in connection with any other underwritten Public Offering. In connection with any Public Offering, Mobileye shall enter into customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all other actions as are reasonably required and customary in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in any such Public Offering, including the engagement of a “qualified independent underwriter” in connection with the qualification of the underwriting arrangements with FINRA.

 

23

 

  

(k)               Upon execution of confidentiality agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Mobileye, Mobileye shall make available during regular business hours for inspection by any Holder or underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to a Registration Statement being filed by Mobileye pursuant to this Section 4.6 and any attorney, accountant or other professional retained by any the Holder or underwriter (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of Mobileye (collectively, the “Records”) as shall be reasonably necessary or desirable to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility, and cause Mobileye’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any Inspectors in connection with such Registration Statement (including by participation in a reasonable number of diligence calls). Records that Mobileye determines, in good faith, to be confidential and that it notifies the Inspectors are confidential shall not be disclosed by the Inspectors unless (i) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in such Registration Statement or (ii) the release of such Records is required pursuant to applicable law or regulation or judicial process. Each Person agrees that information obtained by it as a result of such inspections shall be deemed confidential and shall not be used by it or its Affiliates as the basis for any market transactions in the Mobileye Capital Stock unless and until such information is made generally available to the public. Each Person further agrees that, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in a court of competent jurisdiction, it shall give notice to Mobileye and allow Mobileye, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of the Records deemed confidential.

 

(l)                 Mobileye shall furnish to each Holder and to each such underwriter, broker or sales agent if any, or any other financial institution facilitating such distribution of securities, a signed counterpart, addressed to such Holder, underwriter or such other financial institution, as applicable, of (i) an opinion or opinions of counsel to Mobileye and (ii) a comfort letter or comfort letters from Mobileye’s independent certified public accountants, each in customary form and covering such matters of the kind customarily covered by opinions or comfort letters, as the case may be, as the managing underwriter(s), broker, sales agent or other financial institution facilitating such distribution of securities therefor reasonably request.

 

(m)             Mobileye shall take all commercially reasonable actions to ensure that any free-writing prospectus utilized in connection with any Demand Registration, Underwritten Shelf Takedown or other offering off of a Shelf Registration Statement or Piggyback Registration hereunder complies in all material respects with the Securities Act, is filed in accordance with the Securities Act to the extent required thereby, is retained in accordance with the Securities Act to the extent required thereby and, when taken together with the related prospectus, shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

 

(n)               Mobileye shall otherwise use all commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement or such other document that shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder.

 

(o)               Mobileye may require each Holder promptly to furnish in writing to Mobileye such information regarding the distribution of the Registrable Securities as Mobileye may from time to time reasonably request and such other information as may be legally required or Mobileye may deem reasonably advisable in connection with such registration; provided that, prior to excluding such Holder on the basis of its failure to provide such information, Mobileye must furnish in writing a reminder to such Holder requesting such information at least three (3) days prior to filing the applicable Registration Statement.

 

24

 

  

(p)               Each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from Mobileye of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 4.6(i), such Holder shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 4.6(i), and, if so directed by Mobileye, such Holder shall deliver to Mobileye all copies, other than any permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession, of the most recent prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. If Mobileye shall give such notice, Mobileye shall extend the period during which such Registration Statement shall be maintained effective by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of notice pursuant to Section 4.6(i) to the date when Mobileye shall make available to such Holder a prospectus supplemented or amended to conform with the requirements of Section 4.6(i).

 

(q)               Each Holder agrees that, in connection with any offering pursuant to this Section 4, it will not prepare or use or refer to, any “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act) without the prior written authorization of Mobileye, and will not distribute any written materials in connection with the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to any registration statement hereunder other than the prospectus and any such free writing prospectus so authorized.

 

(r)                Mobileye shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to list all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement on any securities exchange or quotation system on which its Class A common stock is then listed or traded.

 

(s)                Mobileye shall have appropriate officers of Mobileye (i) prepare and make presentations at any “road shows” or other investor presentations and before analysts and rating agencies, as the case may be, in any Underwritten Offering, (ii) otherwise use their commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate as reasonably requested by the underwriters in the offering, marketing or selling of the Registrable Securities, including, by executing customary underwriting agreements and (iii) otherwise use their commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate as reasonably requested by the Holders in the marketing of the Registrable Securities.

 

(t)                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article IV, Mobileye shall not have any obligation to participate in any due diligence, execute any agreements or certificates or deliver legal opinions or obtain comfort letters in connection with any sales or offers of Mobileye securities other than in connection with an Underwritten Offering.

Section 4.7            Indemnification and Contribution.

 

(a)               In the case of each offering of Registrable Securities made pursuant to this Article IV, Mobileye agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities included in such registration (each, a “Selling Holder”), each underwriter of Registrable Securities so offered and each Person, if any, who controls any of the foregoing Persons within the meaning of the Securities Act and the officers, directors, affiliates, employees and agents of each of the foregoing, against any and all losses, liabilities, costs (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements), claims and damages, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, including any amount paid in settlement of any litigation commenced or threatened, insofar as such losses, liabilities, costs, claims and damages (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, whether or not such indemnified Person is a party thereto) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities (as amended or supplemented if Mobileye shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), any preliminary prospectus or any “issuer free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 433 of the Securities Act) or (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided that Mobileye shall not be liable to any Person in any such case to the extent that any such loss, liability, cost, claim or damage arises out of or relates to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or any omission or alleged omission, except insofar as the same shall have been made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to Mobileye in writing by or on behalf of such Selling Holder expressly for use therein or by such Selling Holder’s failure to deliver a copy of the prospectus, the issuer free writing prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto after Mobileye has furnished such Selling Holder with a sufficient number of copies of the same.

 

(b)               In the case of each offering made pursuant to this Agreement, each Selling Holder, by exercising its registration rights hereunder, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, Mobileye and its officers, directors, affiliates, employees and agents and each Person, if any, who controls Mobileye within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity from Mobileye contained in Section 4.7(a) to such Selling Holder, but only with respect to information furnished in writing by such Selling Holder or on such Selling Holder’s behalf expressly for use in any Registration Statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities, or any amendment or supplement thereto, any preliminary prospectus or any “issuer free writing prospectus.” Each such Selling Holder also agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any underwriters of the Registrable Securities, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such underwriters within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification of Mobileye provided in this Section 4.7(b). As a condition to including Registrable Securities in any Registration Statement filed in accordance herewith, Mobileye may require that it shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from any underwriter to indemnify and hold it harmless to the extent customarily provided by underwriters with respect to similar securities.

 

26

 

  

(c)               Each party indemnified under paragraph (a) or (b) above shall, promptly after receipt of notice of a claim or action against such indemnified party in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or action; provided that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party on account of the indemnity agreement contained in paragraph (a) or (b) above except to the extent that the indemnifying party was actually prejudiced by such failure, and in no event shall such failure relieve the indemnifying party from any other liability that it may have to such indemnified party. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall have notified the indemnifying party thereof, unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified party and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 4.7 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. Any indemnifying party against whom indemnity may be sought under this Section 4.7 shall not be liable to indemnify an indemnified party if such indemnified party settles such claim or action without the consent of the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party may not agree to any settlement of any such claim or action, other than solely for monetary damages for which the indemnifying party shall be responsible hereunder, the result of which any remedy or relief shall be applied to or against the indemnified party, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In any action hereunder as to which the indemnifying party has assumed the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party, the indemnified party shall continue to be entitled to participate in the defense thereof, with counsel of its own choice, but the indemnifying party shall not be obligated hereunder to reimburse the indemnified party for the costs thereof.

 

(d)               If the indemnification provided for in this Section 4.7 shall for any reason be unavailable (other than in accordance with its terms) to an indemnified party in respect of any loss, liability, cost, claim or damage referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, cost, claim or damage (i) as between Mobileye and the Selling Holders on the one hand and the underwriters on the other, in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by Mobileye and the Selling Holders on the one hand and the underwriters on the other hand or, if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits but also the relative fault of Mobileye and the Selling Holders on the one hand and the underwriters on the other with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, liability, cost, claim or damage as well as any other relevant equitable considerations and (ii) as between Mobileye on the one hand and each Selling Holder on the other, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of Mobileye and of each Selling Holder in connection with such statements or omissions as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by Mobileye and the Selling Holders on the one hand and the underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the offering (net of underwriting discounts and commissions but before deducting expenses) received by Mobileye and the Selling Holders bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the prospectus. The relative fault of Mobileye and the Selling Holders on the one hand and of the underwriters on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by Mobileye and the Selling Holders or by the underwriters. The relative fault of Mobileye on the one hand and of each Selling Holder on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission, but not by reference to any indemnified party’s stock ownership in Mobileye. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, cost, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this paragraph (d) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this paragraph (d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Mobileye and the Selling Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.7 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this paragraph. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was found not liable for or not guilty of a fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

27

 

 

(e)               Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.7, the obligation to indemnify or contribute shall be several, and not joint, among the Selling Holders who furnished or failed to furnish the information in a registration statement (or in any preliminary or final prospectus included therein or issuer free writing prospectus related thereto) or in any offering memorandum or other offering document relating to the offering and sale of Registrable Securities that resulted in any loss, liability, claim or damages. The liability of each such Selling Holder shall be limited to such Selling Holder’s proportionate amount of the aggregate gross proceeds received by all such Selling Holders from the sale of such Registrable Securities and shall not in any event exceed the gross proceeds received by such Selling Holder from such sale.

 

(f)                Indemnification and contribution similar to that specified in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 4.7 (with appropriate modifications) shall be given by Mobileye, the Selling Holders and any underwriters with respect to any required registration or other qualification of securities under any state or government law or regulation or governmental authority.

 

(g)               The obligations of the parties under this Section 4.7 shall be in addition to any liability which any party may otherwise have to any other party.

 

Section 4.8            Rule 144 and Form S-3. Mobileye shall use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that the conditions to the availability of Rule 144 set forth in paragraph (c) thereof shall be satisfied. Upon the request of any Holder of Registrable Securities, Mobileye will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. Mobileye further agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause all conditions to the availability of Form S-3 (or any successor form) under the Securities Act for the filing of registration statements under this Agreement to be met as soon as reasonably practicable after the IPO Date; provided that Mobileye shall not be required to issue any additional shares of Class A common stock solely for the purpose of meeting the minimum eligibility requirements under Form S-3.

 

Section 4.9            Holdback Agreement.

 

(a)               If so requested by the Underwriters’ Representative in connection with an offering of securities covered by a registration statement filed by Mobileye, whether or not Registrable Securities of the Holders are included therein, each Holder shall agree not to effect any sale or distribution of the Shares, including any sale under Rule 144, without the prior written consent of the Underwriters’ Representative (otherwise than through the registered public offering then being made and subject to customary exceptions), within sixty (60) days (or such lesser period as the Underwriters’ Representative may permit) after the Effective Date of the registration statement (or the pricing date in the case of a “take-down” off of an already effective Shelf Registration Statement), subject to customary exclusions agreed to by such Underwriters’ Representative; provided that Mobileye shall cause all directors and executive officers of Mobileye, and all other Persons with registration rights with respect to Mobileye’s securities (whether or not pursuant to this Agreement) to enter into substantially identical agreement for at least the same period of time (without regard to this proviso), subject to exceptions for gifts, pledges, sales pursuant to pre-existing 105-1 plans and other customary exclusions agreed to by such managing underwriter(s). The Holders shall not be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 4.9 for longer than an aggregate of ninety-seven (97) days during any 12-month period.

 

28

 

  

(b)               If so requested by the Underwriters’ Representative in connection with an offering of any Registrable Securities, Mobileye shall agree not to effect any sale or distribution of Mobileye Capital Stock, without the prior written consent of the Underwriters’ Representative (otherwise than through the registered public offering then being made or in connection with any acquisition or business combination transaction and other than in connection with stock options and employee benefit plans and compensation), within seven (7) days prior to or sixty (60) days (or such lesser period as the Underwriters’ Representative may permit) after the Effective Date of the registration statement (or the commencement of the offering to the public of such Registrable Securities in the case of Rule 415 Offerings) and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and enforce similar agreements from any other Persons if requested by the Underwriters’ Representative; provided that Mobileye or such Persons shall not be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 4.9 for longer than an aggregate of ninety-seven (97) days during any twelve (12) month period.

 

Section 4.10         Term. This Article IV shall remain in effect until all Registrable Securities held by Holders have been transferred by them to other Persons.

29

 

 

(c)               No Impairment. Nothing contained in Section 5.1(a) or Section 5.1(b) shall limit or otherwise affect any Party’s rights or obligations pursuant to or contemplated by this Agreement or any Inter-Company Agreement, in each case in accordance with its terms, including, without limitation, any obligations relating to indemnification, including indemnification pursuant to Section 5.2 and Section 5.3 of this Agreement, and any Insurance Proceeds under any of Intel’s Insurance Policies relating to the Mobileye Business which Mobileye is entitled to be paid.

 

(d)               No Actions as to Released Pre-IPO Date Claims. Mobileye agrees, for itself and as agent for each member of the Mobileye Group, not to make any claim or demand, or commence any Action asserting any claim or demand, including any claim of contribution or any indemnification, against Intel or any member of the Intel Group, or any other Person released pursuant to Section 5.1(a), with respect to any Liabilities released pursuant to Section 5.1(a). Intel agrees, for itself and as agent for each member of the Intel Group, not to make any claim or demand, or commence any Action asserting any claim or demand, including any claim of contribution or any indemnification, against Mobileye or any member of the Mobileye Group, or any other Person released pursuant to Section 5.1(b), with respect to any Liabilities released pursuant to Section 5.1(b).

 

(e)               Further Instruments. At any time, at the request of any other Party, each Party shall cause each member of its respective Intel Group or Mobileye Group, as applicable, to execute and deliver releases reflecting the provisions hereof.

 

Section 5.2            Indemnification by Mobileye. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Mobileye shall, for itself and as agent for each member of the Mobileye Group, indemnify, defend (or, where applicable, pay the defense costs for) and hold harmless the Intel Indemnitees from and against, and shall reimburse such Intel Indemnitees with respect to, any and all Losses that any third party seeks to impose upon the Intel Indemnitees, or which are imposed upon the Intel Indemnitees, and that relate to, arise or result from, whether prior to or following the IPO Date, any of the following items (without duplication):

 

(a)               any Mobileye Liability;

 

(b)               any breach by Mobileye or any member of the Mobileye Group of this Agreement or any of the Inter-Company Agreements; and

 

(c)               any Liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, with respect to all information (i) contained in the IPO Registration Statement, any issuer free writing prospectus or any preliminary, final or supplemental prospectus forming a part of the IPO Registration Statement (other than information provided by Intel to Mobileye specifically for inclusion in the IPO Registration Statement, any issuer free writing prospectus or any preliminary, final or supplemental prospectus forming a part of the IPO Registration Statement), (ii) contained in any public filings made by Mobileye with the Commission following the IPO Date and (iii) provided by Mobileye to Intel specifically for inclusion in Intel’s annual or quarterly reports following the IPO Date to the extent (A) such information pertains to (x) Mobileye and the Mobileye Group or (y) the Mobileye Business or (B) Intel has provided prior written notice to Mobileye that such information will be included in one or more annual or quarterly reports, specifying how such information will be presented, and the information is included in such annual or quarterly reports; provided that this sub-clause (B) shall not apply to the extent that any such Liability arises out of or results from, or in connection with, any action or inaction of any member of the Intel Group, including as a result of any misstatement or omission of relevant material information by any member of the Intel Group to Mobileye.

 

30

 

  

In the event that any member of the Mobileye Group makes a payment to the Intel Indemnitees hereunder, and any of the Intel Indemnitees subsequently diminishes the Liability on account of which such payment was made, either directly or through a third-party recovery (other than a recovery indirectly from Intel), Intel will promptly repay (or will procure Intel Indemnitee to promptly repay) such member of the Mobileye Group the amount by which the payment made by such member of the Mobileye Group exceeds the actual cost of the associated indemnified Liability following such diminution.

 

Section 5.3            Indemnification by Intel. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Intel shall, for itself and as agent for each member of the Intel Group, indemnify, defend (or, where applicable, pay the defense costs for) and hold harmless the Mobileye Indemnitees from and against, and shall reimburse such Mobileye Indemnitee with respect to, any and all Losses that any third party seeks to impose upon the Mobileye Indemnitees, or which are imposed upon the Mobileye Indemnitees, and that relate to, arise or result from, whether prior to or following the IPO Date, with any of the following items (without duplication):

 

(a)               any Liability of the Intel Group and all Liabilities arising out of the operation or conduct of the Intel Business (in each case excluding the Mobileye Liabilities);

 

(b)               any breach by Intel or any member of the Intel Group of this Agreement or any of the Inter-Company Agreements;

 

(c)               any Liabilities relating to payment of consideration to former equityholders of Mobileye N.V., a public limited liability company (naamloze vennootschap) organized under the laws of The Netherlands (“Mobileye N.V.”), under that certain Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 12, 2017 (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among Intel, Mobileye N.V. and Cyclops, including in connection with the Compulsory Acquisition (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), and related costs; and

 

(d)               any Liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, with respect to all information (i) contained in the IPO Registration Statement, any issuer free writing prospectus or any preliminary, final or supplemental prospectus forming a part of the IPO Registration Statement provided by Intel specifically for inclusion therein to the extent such information pertains to (x) Intel and the Intel Group or (y) the Intel Business and (ii) provided by Intel to Mobileye specifically for inclusion in Mobileye’s annual or quarterly reports following the IPO Date to the extent (A) such information pertains to (x) Intel and the Intel Group or (y) the Intel Business or (B) Mobileye has provided prior written notice to Intel that such information will be included in one or more annual or quarterly reports, specifying how such information will be presented, and the information is included in such annual or quarterly reports; provided that this sub-clause (B) shall not apply to the extent that any such Liability arises out of or results from, or in connection with, any action or inaction of any member of the Mobileye Group, including as a result of any misstatement or omission of relevant material information by any member of the Mobileye Group to Intel.

 

31

 

 

In the event that any member of the Intel Group makes a payment to the Mobileye Indemnitees hereunder, and any of the Mobileye Indemnitees subsequently diminishes the Liability on account of which such payment was made, either directly or through a third-party recovery (other than a recovery indirectly from Mobileye), Mobileye will promptly repay (or will procure a Mobileye Indemnitee to promptly repay) such member of the Intel Group the amount by which the payment made by such member of the Intel Group exceeds the actual cost of the indemnified Liability following such diminution.

 

Section 5.4            Ancillary Agreement Liabilities. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, any Liability specifically assumed by, or allocated to, a Party in any of the Inter-Company Agreements shall be governed exclusively by the terms of such Inter-Company Agreement.

 

Section 5.5            Other Agreements Evidencing Indemnification Obligations. Intel hereby agrees to execute, for the benefit of any Mobileye Indemnitee, such documents as may be reasonably requested by such Mobileye Indemnitee, evidencing Intel’s agreement that the indemnification obligations of Intel set forth in this Agreement inure to the benefit of and are enforceable by such Mobileye Indemnitee. Mobileye hereby agrees to execute, for the benefit of any Intel Indemnitee, such documents as may be reasonably requested by such Intel Indemnitee, evidencing Mobileye’s agreement that the indemnification obligations of Mobileye set forth in this Agreement inure to the benefit of and are enforceable by such Intel Indemnitee.

 

Section 5.6            Reductions for Insurance Proceeds and other Recoveries.

 

(a)               Insurance Proceeds. The amount that any Indemnifying Party is or may be required to provide indemnification to or on behalf of any Indemnitee pursuant to Section 5.2 or Section 5.3, as applicable, shall be reduced (retroactively or prospectively) by any Insurance Proceeds or other amounts actually recovered from third parties by or on behalf of such Indemnitee in respect of the related Loss. The existence of a claim by an Indemnitee for monies from a third-party insurer or against a third party in respect of any indemnifiable Loss shall not, however, delay any payment pursuant to the indemnification provisions contained herein and otherwise determined to be due and owing by an Indemnifying Party. Rather, the Indemnifying Party shall make payment in full of the amount determined to be due and owing by it against an assignment by the Indemnitee to the Indemnifying Party of the entire claim of the Indemnitee for Insurance Proceeds or against such third party. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, it is the intention of the Parties that no third-party insurer or any other third party shall be (i) entitled to a benefit it would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the foregoing indemnification provisions, or (ii) relieved of the responsibility to pay any claims for which it is obligated. If an Indemnitee has received the payment required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any indemnifiable Loss and later receives Insurance Proceeds or other amounts in respect of such indemnifiable Loss, then such Indemnitee shall hold such Insurance Proceeds or other amounts in trust for the benefit of the Indemnifying Party (or Indemnifying Parties) and shall pay to the Indemnifying Party, as promptly as practicable after receipt, a sum equal to the amount of such Insurance Proceeds or other amounts received, up to the aggregate amount of any payments received from the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement in respect of such indemnifiable Loss (or, if there is more than one Indemnifying Party, the Indemnitee shall pay each Indemnifying Party, its proportionate share (based on payments received from the Indemnifying Parties) of such Insurance Proceeds).

 

32

 

  

(b)               Tax Cost/Tax Benefit. The amount that any Indemnifying Party is or may be required to provide indemnification to or on behalf of any Indemnitee pursuant to Section 5.2 or Section 5.3, as applicable, shall be (i) increased to take account of any net Tax cost incurred by the Indemnitee arising from the receipt or accrual of an indemnification payment hereunder (grossed up for such increase) and (ii) reduced to take account of any net Tax benefit realized by the Indemnitee arising from incurring or paying such loss or other liability. In computing the amount of any such Tax cost or Tax benefit, the Indemnitee shall be deemed to recognize all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit before recognizing any item arising from the receipt or accrual of any indemnification payment hereunder or incurring or paying any indemnified Loss. Any indemnification payment hereunder shall initially be made without regard to this Section 5.6(b) and shall be increased or reduced to reflect any such net Tax cost (including gross-up) or net Tax benefit only after the Indemnitee has actually realized such cost or benefit. For purposes of this Agreement, an Indemnitee shall be deemed to have “actually realized” a net Tax cost or a net Tax benefit to the extent that, and at such time as, the amount of Taxes payable by such Indemnitee is increased above or reduced below, as the case may be, the amount of Taxes that such Indemnitee would be required to pay but for the receipt or accrual of the indemnification payment or the incurrence or payment of such Loss, as the case may be. The amount of any increase or reduction hereunder shall be adjusted to reflect any Final Determination with respect to the Indemnitee’s liability for Taxes, and payments between such indemnified parties to reflect such adjustment shall be made if necessary. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Parties hereto agree that any indemnity payment made hereunder shall be treated as a capital contribution or dividend distribution, as the case may be, immediately prior to the IPO Date and, accordingly, not includible in the taxable income of the recipient or deductible by the payor.

 

Section 5.7            Procedures for Defense, Settlement and Indemnification of the Third-Party Claims.

 

(a)               Notice of Claims. If an Indemnitee shall receive notice or otherwise learn of the assertion by a Person (including any Governmental Authority) who is not a member of the Intel Group or the Mobileye Group of any claim or of the commencement by any such Person of any Action (collectively, a “Third-Party Claim”) with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification, Intel and Mobileye (as applicable) will ensure that such Indemnitee shall give such Indemnifying Party written notice thereof within thirty (30) days after becoming aware of such Third-Party Claim. Any such notice shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delay or failure of any Indemnitee or other Person to give notice as provided in this Section 5.7 shall not relieve the related Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article V, except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such delay or failure to give notice.

 

(b)               Defense by Indemnifying Party. An Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim and, to the extent that it wishes, at its cost, risk and expense, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the party seeking indemnification. After timely notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee of such election to so assume the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the party seeking indemnification for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof. The Indemnitee agrees to cooperate in all reasonable respects with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the defense against any Third-Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to compromise or settle any Third-Party Claim as to which it is providing indemnification, which compromise or settlement shall be made only with the written consent of the Indemnitee, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

 

33

 

  

(c)               Defense by Indemnitee. If an Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of notice of such claim, Indemnitee will, upon delivering notice to such effect to the Indemnifying Party, have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claim on behalf of and for the account of the Indemnifying Party subject to the limitations as set forth in this Section 5.7; provided, however, that such Third-Party Claim shall not be compromised or settled without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If the Indemnitee assumes the defense of any Third-Party Claim, it shall keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably informed of the progress of any such defense, compromise or settlement. The Indemnifying Party shall reimburse all such costs and expenses of the Indemnitee in the event it is ultimately determined that the Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee with respect to such Third-Party Claim. In no event shall an Indemnifying Party be liable for any settlement effected without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

 

Section 5.8            Additional Matters.

 

(a)               Cooperation in Defense and Settlement. With respect to any Third-Party Claim that implicates both Mobileye and Intel in a material fashion due to the allocation of Liabilities, responsibilities for management of defense and related indemnities set forth in this Agreement or any of the Inter-Company Agreements, the Parties agree to cooperate fully and maintain a joint defense (in a manner that will preserve the attorney-client privilege, joint defense or other privilege with respect thereto) so as to minimize such Liabilities and defense costs associated therewith. If, by agreement the Parties allow one Party to have the primary role of managing the defense of such Third-Party Claims, the managing Party shall, upon reasonable request, consult with the non-managing Party with respect to significant matters relating thereto and may, if necessary or helpful, associate counsel to assist in the defense of such claims.

 

(b)               Pre-IPO Date Actions. Except with respect to matters pertaining solely to, or solely in connection with, the Mobileye Business, Intel may, in its sole discretion, have exclusive authority and control over the investigation, prosecution, defense and appeal of all Actions pending at the IPO Date relating to or arising in connection with, in any manner, the Mobileye assets or the Mobileye Liabilities if Intel or a member of the Intel Group is named as a party thereto; provided, however, that Intel must obtain the written consent of Mobileye, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, to settle or compromise or consent to the entry of judgment with respect to such Action. After any such compromise, settlement, consent to entry of judgment or entry of judgment, Intel shall reasonably and fairly allocate to Mobileye and Mobileye shall be responsible for Mobileye’s proportionate share of any such compromise, settlement, consent or judgment attributable to the Mobileye Business, the Mobileye assets or the Mobileye Liabilities, including its proportionate share of the costs and expenses associated with defending same.

 

(c)               Substitution. In the event of an Action in which the Indemnifying Party is not a named defendant, if either the Indemnitee or the Indemnifying Party shall so request, the Parties shall endeavor to substitute the Indemnifying Party for the named defendant. If such substitution or addition cannot be achieved for any reason or is not requested, the rights and obligations of the Parties regarding indemnification and the management of the defense of claims as set forth in this Article V shall not be altered.

 

34

 

 

(d)               Subrogation. In the event of payment by or on behalf of any Indemnifying Party to or on behalf of any Indemnitee in connection with any Third-Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnitee, in whole or in part based upon whether the Indemnifying Party has paid all or only part of the Indemnitee’s Liability, as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnitee may have any right, defense or claim relating to such Third-Party Claim against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Third-Party Claim or against any other person. Such Indemnitee shall cooperate with such Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right, defense or claim.

 

Section 5.9            Survival of Indemnities. Subject to Section 5.5, the rights and obligations of the members of the Intel Group and the Mobileye Group under this Article V shall survive the sale or other transfer by any Party of any assets or businesses or the assignment by it of any Liabilities or the sale by any member of the Intel Group or the Mobileye Group of the capital stock or other equity interests of any Subsidiary to any Person.

At least twenty (20) Business Days prior to the issuance of any shares of Common Stock (other than as provided in Section 6.1(b) and other than issuances of Common Stock to any member of the Intel Group) or the first date on which any event could occur that, in the absence of a full or partial exercise of the Option, would result in a reduction in Intel Group’s Ownership Percentage to below eighty and one-tenth percent (80.1%), Mobileye will notify Intel in writing (an “Option Notice”) of its plans to issue any such shares or the date on which such event could first occur. Each Option Notice must specify the date on which Mobileye intends to issue such additional shares of Common Stock or on which such event could first occur (such issuance or event being referred to herein as an “Issuance Event” and the date of such issuance or event as an “Issuance Event Date”), the number of shares Mobileye intends to issue or may issue and the other terms and conditions of such Issuance Event.

The Option may be exercised at any time after receipt of an applicable Option Notice and up to three (3) Business Days prior to the applicable Issuance Event Date by the delivery to Mobileye of a written notice to such effect specifying (x) the number of shares of Class A common stock and the number of shares of Class B common stock to be purchased by Intel or any member of the Intel Group and (y) a determination of the exercise price for such shares. In the event of any such exercise of the Option, Mobileye will, on the applicable Issuance Event Date and simultaneously with the issuance of shares of Common Stock in the related Issuance Event, issue to Intel (or any member of the Intel Group designated by Intel), against payment therefor, certificates or book-entries representing the shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock being purchased upon such exercise. Payment for such shares shall be made by wire transfer or intrabank transfer of immediately available funds to such account as shall be specified by Mobileye for the full purchase price for such shares.

 

Section 6.4            Termination of Option. The Option, or any part thereof assigned to a member of the Intel Group other than Intel, shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the Distribution Date, (ii) the first date that members of the Intel Group beneficially own shares of Common Stock representing less than eighty percent (80%) in Ownership Percentage and (iii) in the event that the Option has been transferred, on such date that the Person to whom the Option, or such part thereof, has been transferred, ceases to be a member of the Intel Group.

Section 8.10      Severability. If any terms or other provision of this Agreement or the Schedules hereto shall be determined by a court, administrative agency or arbitrator to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not render the entire Agreement invalid. Rather, this Agreement shall be construed as if not containing the particular invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision, and all other provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to either Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law.

Except as otherwise explicitly provided herein, Intel shall retain and agree to pay, perform, fulfill and discharge, as the case may be (a) all Liabilities and obligations under the Intel Plans regardless of when arising or accrued, and (b) all employment, service and termination-related Liabilities and obligations with respect to (i) all Intel Employees (and their dependents and beneficiaries), (ii) all former employees of Intel or an Intel Entity (and their dependents and beneficiaries), other than any Liabilities or obligations assumed by Mobileye or a Mobileye Entity pursuant to Section 2.2 above, (iii) any Other Intel Employee (and their dependents and beneficiaries) for all periods of employment prior to such individual’s Mobileye Start Date (to the extent applicable) except as otherwise provided in Section 2.2 above with respect to Mobileye Offer Employees in China (to the extent such individual receives and accepts an offer from Mobileye) and (iv) any Person who is, or was, an independent contractor, temporary employee, temporary service worker, consultant, freelancer, agency employee, leased employee, on-call worker, incidental worker or non-payroll worker or in any other contractual relationship with Intel or an Intel Entity for all periods of employment or engagement with an Intel Entity, other than any Liabilities or obligations assumed by Mobileye or a Mobileye Entity pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement or any another agreement between the Parties. Intel acknowledges and agrees that it has paid to each Mobileye Offer Employee all amounts owed to such employee from Intel as of his or her Mobileye Start Date pursuant to the employee’s Intel employment contract, an Intel Plan or applicable law, including amounts, if any, relating to severance (excluding Mobileye Offer Employees in China), accrued pension and accrued vacation.

 

2.4Assumption and Retention of Liabilities Related to Actions. In the event of any actual or threatened Action brought by or on behalf of any Former Intel Employee alleging a violation of any applicable law governing employment based on acts or omissions that occurred prior to and after the applicable Mobileye Start Date, the portion of Liability in respect of the period prior to the applicable Mobileye Start Date will be assumed by Intel, and the portion of Liability in respect of the period on and after the applicable Mobileye Start Date will be assumed by Mobileye; provided, however, that Intel shall be liable solely for such Liabilities as calculated on the basis of the existing Liability as would have been payable at the applicable Mobileye Start Date, including, without limitation for the purpose of calculating such Liabilities, taking into account the impacted Employees’ level of compensation and length of service solely as of the applicable Mobileye Start Date and not taking into account any subsequent increases in compensation or length of service. Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party of any actual or threatened Action described herein. Unless mutually agreed otherwise by the Parties, on a case-by-case basis, Intel shall have the right to control the defense of any Action described herein, at its own cost, risk and expense, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Intel for so long as the Intel Group holds in any manner at least fifty percent (50%) of the Shares. In the event the Intel Group no longer holds in any manner at least fifty percent (50%) of the Shares, the Parties shall mutually agree on whether Intel or Mobileye will have the right to control the defense of an Action at such Party’s own cost, risk and expense and with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Party; provided that, if Intel assumes control of the defense of any Action described herein, Intel shall (a) upon Mobileye’s reasonable request, consult with Mobileye with respect to significant matters relating thereto and (b) keep Mobileye reasonably informed of the progress of the defense, potential compromise or settlement of any such Action. Each Party agrees to cooperate with the other Party and its counsel in the defense of any such Action. The Party handling the defense shall be entitled to compromise or settle any such Action, which compromise or settlement shall be made only with the written consent of the other Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

The compensation shall, within 30 days after the delivery of the valuation, , will be made as mutually agreed upon between the Parties, either by way of a cash payment from Intel to Mobileye or from a trustee acting on behalf of an Intel Entity based on a contractual trust arrangement to Mobileye or to a trustee acting on behalf a Mobileye entity, provided that Intel shall be entitled to request from Mobileye the set-up of one or more contractual trust arrangements with an equivalent level of protection (gleichwertige Sicherung) compared to the contractual trust arrangements in place at the relevant Intel Entity, or in any other method agreed by the Parties. In addition, Intel agrees to and shall compensate Mobileye for all amounts owed to such employee from Intel as of his or her Mobileye Start Date pursuant to the employee’s Intel employment contract, an Intel Plan or applicable law, including without limitation, amounts, if any, relating to severance, and accrued vacation, overtime and flex-time, provided, however, that Intel shall be liable solely up to the existing Liability as would have been payable at the applicable Mobileye Start Date, taking into account for purposes of calculating such Liabilities, any decreases in compensation by Mobileye that decrease the value of the Liabilities and not taking into account any subsequent increases in compensation or the length of service, solely to the extent the impacted employee does not use such accrued vacation, overtime or flex-time prior to the date of their employment termination. The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Section 2.5(c)(ii) is the exclusive remedy with respect to the transferred company pension Liabilities described herein and that no other or additional compensation or indemnification shall be provided by Intel or an Intel Entity with regards thereto.

(c)            Foreign National Employees.

Intel agrees to and shall compensate Mobileye for all statutory severance amounts owed to any such Mobileye Offer Employee in China as of his or her Mobileye Start Date pursuant to the employee’s Intel employment contract, an Intel Plan or applicable law, that were not previously paid to such employee; provided, however, Intel shall be liable solely up to the lesser of (a) the existing Liability as would have been payable at the applicable Mobileye Start Date, including, without limitation, for the purpose of calculating such Liabilities, taking into account the impacted employees’ level of compensation and length of service solely as of the applicable Mobileye Start Date and not taking into account any subsequent increases in compensation or length of service and (b) the amount of Liability actually incurred by Mobileye with respect to such employee’s period of employment with an Intel Entity prior to his or her Mobileye Start Date.

No provision of the Master Transaction Agreement or this Agreement shall be deemed to release any individual for any violation of any agreement or policy pertaining to confidential or proprietary information of any Intel or any of its Affiliated Companies or Mobileye or any of its Affiliated Companies, respectively, or otherwise relieve any individual of his or her obligations under any such agreements or policies.

  

4.3Non-Termination of Employment; No Third Party Beneficiaries. No provision of this Agreement or the Master Transaction Agreement shall be construed to (a) create any right, or accelerate entitlement, to any compensation or benefit whatsoever on the part of any future, present, or former employee of Intel, an Intel Entity, Mobileye, or a Mobileye Entity under any Intel Plan or Mobileye Plan or otherwise or (b) to be for the benefit of or otherwise enforceable by employee, creditor or any other third party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: (x) except as expressly provided in this Agreement, neither the occurrence of the consummation of the IPO nor any termination of the Participating Company status of Mobileye or a Mobileye Entity shall cause any employee to be deemed to have incurred a termination of employment which entitles such individual to the commencement of benefits under any of the Intel Plans; (y) except as expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Mobileye or any Mobileye Entity, at any time after the consummation of the IPO, from amending, merging, modifying, terminating, eliminating, reducing, or otherwise altering in any respect any Mobileye Plan, any benefit under any Mobileye Plan or any trust, insurance policy or funding vehicle related to any Mobileye Plan; and (z) except as expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Intel or any Intel Entity, at any time prior to or after the consummation of the IPO, from amending, merging, modifying, terminating, eliminating, reducing, or otherwise altering in any respect any Intel Plan, any benefit under any Intel Plan or any trust, insurance policy or funding vehicle related to any Intel Plan.

 

4.4Fiduciary Matters. Intel and Mobileye each acknowledge that actions required to be taken pursuant to this Agreement may be subject to fiduciary duties or standards of conduct under ERISA or other applicable law, and no party shall be deemed to be in violation of this Agreement if it fails to comply with any provisions hereof based upon its good faith determination that to do so would violate such a fiduciary duty or standard. Each party shall be responsible for taking such actions as are deemed necessary and appropriate to comply with its own fiduciary responsibilities and shall fully release the other party for any Liabilities imposed on such party pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement by the failure to satisfy any such responsibility.

 

4.5Consent of Third Parties. If any provision of this Agreement is dependent on the consent of any third party (such as a vendor) and such consent is withheld, Intel and Mobileye shall use commercially reasonable efforts to implement the applicable provisions of this Agreement to the full extent practicable. If any provision of this Agreement cannot be implemented due to the failure of such third party to consent, Intel and Mobileye shall negotiate in good faith to implement the provision in a mutually satisfactory manner. The phrase “commercially reasonable efforts” as used herein shall not be construed to require the incurrence of any non-routine or unreasonable expense or liability or the waiver of any right.

 

4.6Cooperation. The Parties agree to, and to cause their Affiliated Companies to, cooperate and use reasonable efforts to promptly (a) comply with all requirements of this Agreement, ERISA, the Code and other laws which may be applicable to the matters addressed herein, and (b) subject to applicable law, provide each other with such information reasonably requested by the other party to assist the other party in administering its plans and programs, pursuing or defending any actual or threatened Action relating to or otherwise involving any Former Intel Employee, and complying with applicable law and regulations and the terms of this Agreement.

In the event of a Distribution, notwithstanding Sections 3.01 through 3.03 of this Agreement, Intel shall be liable for any Distribution Taxes, to the extent that such Distribution Taxes are attributable to, caused by, or result from, one or more of the following:

 

(i)          any action or omission by Intel (or any Intel Affiliate) inconsistent with any information, covenant, representation, or material related to Intel, any Intel Affiliate, or the Intel Business in an Officer’s Certificate, Tax Opinion, Supplemental Tax Opinion, Ruling Documents, Supplemental Ruling Documents, Ruling, or Supplemental Ruling;

(iii)        any acquisition of any stock or assets of Intel (or any Intel Affiliate) by one or more other persons (other than Mobileye or a Mobileye Affiliate) prior to or following a Distribution; or

 

(iv)        any issuance of stock by Intel (or any Intel Affiliate), or change in ownership of stock in Intel (or any Intel Affiliate).

 

(b)          Mobileye’s Liability for Distribution Taxes. In the event of a Distribution, notwithstanding Sections 3.01 through 3.03 of this Agreement, Mobileye shall be liable for any Distribution Taxes, to the extent that such Distribution Taxes are attributable to, caused by, or result from, one or more of the following:

 

(i)          any action or omission by Mobileye (or any Mobileye Affiliate) after a Distribution at any time, that is inconsistent with any information, covenant, representation, or material related to Mobileye, any Mobileye Affiliate, or the Mobileye Business in an Officer’s Certificate, Tax Opinion, Supplemental Tax Opinion, Ruling Documents, Supplemental Ruling Documents, Ruling, or Supplemental Ruling;

 

(ii)         any action or omission by Mobileye (or any Mobileye Affiliate) after the date of a Distribution (including any act or omission that is in furtherance of, connected to, or part of a plan or series of related transactions (within the meaning of Section 355(e) of the Code) occurring on or prior to the date of a Distribution) including a cessation, transfer to affiliates or disposition of the active trades or businesses of Mobileye (or any Mobileye Affiliate), stock buyback or payment of an extraordinary dividend;

 

 11 

 

 

(iii)        any acquisition of any stock or assets of Mobileye (or any Mobileye Affiliate) by one or more other persons (other than Intel or any Intel Affiliate) prior to or following a Distribution; or

(c)          Joint Liability for Remaining Distribution Taxes. With respect to any Distribution Taxes not otherwise allocated by Sections 5.01(a) or (b) of this Agreement, each of Intel and Mobileye shall be liable for its respective share of such taxes, determined by reference to a ratio, the numerator of which is the relevant party’s Market Capitalization at the time of such Distribution and the denominator of which is the aggregate Market Capitalization of Intel and Mobileye at the time of such Distribution.

 

5.02.          Continuing Covenants.

 

(a)          Mobileye Restrictions. Mobileye agrees that, so long as a Distribution could, in the reasonable discretion of Intel, be effectuated, Mobileye will not knowingly take or fail to take, or permit any Mobileye Affiliate to knowingly take or fail to take, any action that could reasonably be expected to preclude Intel’s ability to effectuate a Distribution. In the event of a Distribution, Mobileye agrees that (1) it will take, or cause any Mobileye Affiliate to take, any action reasonably requested by Intel in order to enable Intel to effectuate a Distribution and (2) it will not take or fail to take, or permit any Mobileye Affiliate to take or fail to take, any action where such action or failure to act would be inconsistent with any information, covenant, representation, or material that relates to facts or matters related to Mobileye (or any Mobileye Affiliate) or within the control of Mobileye and is contained in an Officer’s Certificate, Tax Opinion, Supplemental Tax Opinion, Ruling Documents, Supplemental Ruling Documents, Ruling, or Supplemental Ruling (except where such information, covenant, representation, or material was not previously disclosed to Mobileye) other than as permitted by Section 5.02(c) of this Agreement. For this purpose an action is considered inconsistent with a representation if the representation states that there is no plan or intention to take such action. In the event of a Distribution, Mobileye agrees that it will not take (and it will cause the Mobileye Affiliates to refrain from taking) any position on a Tax Return that is inconsistent with such Distribution qualifying under Section 355 of the Code.

 

 12 

 

 

(b)          Intel Restrictions. In the event of a Distribution, Intel agrees that it will not take or fail to take, or permit any Intel Affiliate to take or fail to take, any action where such action or failure to act would be inconsistent with any material, information, covenant or representation that relates to facts or matters related to Intel (or any Intel Affiliate) or within the control of Intel and is contained in an Officer’s Certificate, Tax Opinion, Supplemental Tax Opinion, Ruling Documents, Supplemental Ruling Documents, Ruling, or Supplemental Ruling. For this purpose an action is considered inconsistent with a representation if the representation states that there is no plan or intention to take such action. In the event of a Distribution, Intel agrees that it will not take (and it will cause the Intel Affiliates to refrain from taking) any position on a Tax Return that is inconsistent with such Distribution qualifying under Section 355 of the Code.

 

(c)          Certain Mobileye Actions Following a Distribution. In the event of a Distribution, Mobileye agrees that, during the two (2) year period following a Distribution, without first obtaining, at Mobileye’s own expense, either a supplemental opinion from Tax Counsel that such action will not result in Distribution Taxes (a “Supplemental Tax Opinion”) or a Supplemental Ruling that such action will not result in Distribution Taxes, unless in any such case Intel and Mobileye agree otherwise, Mobileye shall not (1) sell all or substantially all of the assets of Mobileye or any Mobileye Affiliate, (2) merge Mobileye or any Mobileye Affiliate with another entity, without regard to which party is the surviving entity (other than any merger between two Mobileye Affiliates and a merger between a Mobileye Affiliate and Mobileye where Mobileye is the surviving entity, in each case, where the applicable Mobileye Affiliate(s) are members of the Mobileye Group), (3) transfer any assets of Mobileye in a transaction described in Section 351 (other than a transfer to a corporation which files a Consolidated Return with Mobileye and which is wholly-owned, directly or indirectly, by Mobileye) or subparagraph (C) or (D) of Section 368(a)(1) of the Code, (4) issue stock of Mobileye or any Mobileye Affiliate (or any instrument that is convertible or exchangeable into any such stock) in an acquisition or public or private offering except to the extent such issuances satisfy Safe Harbor VIII (relating to acquisitions in connection with a person’s performance of services) or Safe Harbor IX (relating to acquisitions by a retirement plan of an employer) of Treasury Regulations Section 1.355-7(d), or (5) facilitate or otherwise participate in any acquisition of stock in Mobileye that would result in any shareholder owning five percent (5%) or more of the outstanding stock of Mobileye. Mobileye (or any Mobileye Affiliate) shall only undertake any of such actions after Intel’s receipt of such Supplemental Tax Opinion or Supplemental Ruling and pursuant to the terms and conditions of any such Supplemental Tax Opinion or Supplemental Ruling or as otherwise consented to in writing in advance by Intel. The parties hereby agree that they will act in good faith to take all reasonable steps necessary to amend this Section 5.02(c), from time to time, by mutual agreement, to (i) add certain actions to the list contained herein, or (ii) remove certain actions from the list contained herein, in either case, in order to reflect any relevant change in law, regulation or administrative interpretation occurring after the date of this Agreement and prior to a Distribution.

 

(d)          Notice of Specified Transactions. Not later than ten (10) Business Days prior to entering into any oral or written contract or agreement, and not later than five (5) Business Days after it first becomes aware of any negotiations, plan or intention (regardless of whether it is a party to such negotiations, plan or intention), regarding any of the transactions described in paragraph (c), Mobileye shall provide written notice of its intent to consummate such transaction or the negotiations, plan or intention of which it becomes aware, as the case may be, to Intel.

Intel shall indemnify Mobileye, each Mobileye Affiliate, and their respective directors, officers and employees, and hold them harmless from and against any and all Taxes for which Intel or any Intel Affiliate is liable under this Agreement and any loss, cost, damage or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, that is attributable to, or results from, the failure of Intel, any Intel Affiliate or any director, officer or employee to make any payment required to be made under this Agreement.

Not later than ten (10) Business Days prior to each Estimated Tax Installment Date with respect to a taxable period for which a Consolidated Return or a Combined Return will be filed, Mobileye shall pay to Intel on behalf of the Mobileye Group an amount equal to the amount of any estimated Mobileye Separate Tax Liability. Not later than twenty (20) Business Days prior to each such Estimated Tax Installment Date, Intel shall provide Mobileye with a written notice setting forth the amount payable by Mobileye in respect of such estimated Mobileye Separate Tax Liability and a calculation of such amount.

Not later than thirty (30) Business Days after receipt of any Mobileye Separate Tax Liability computation pursuant to Section 3.05 of this Agreement, Mobileye shall pay to Intel, or Intel shall pay to Mobileye (as appropriate), an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the amount of such Mobileye Separate Tax Liability and the aggregate amount paid by Mobileye with respect to such period under Section 7.01 of this Agreement.

 

7.03.        Redetermination Amounts. In the event of a redetermination of any Tax Item reflected on any Consolidated Return or Combined Return (other than Tax Items relating to Distribution Taxes), as a result of a refund of Taxes paid, a Final Determination or any settlement or compromise with any Taxing Authority which in any such case would affect the Mobileye Separate Tax Liability, Intel shall prepare a revised pro forma Tax Return in accordance with Section 2.04(b) of this Agreement for the relevant taxable period reflecting the redetermination of such Tax Item as a result of such refund, Final Determination, settlement or compromise. Mobileye shall pay to Intel, or Intel shall pay to Mobileye, as appropriate, an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the Mobileye Separate Tax Liability reflected on such revised pro forma Tax Return and the Mobileye Separate Tax Liability for such period as originally computed pursuant to this Agreement.

 

7.04.        Payments of Refunds, Credits and Reimbursements. If one party receives a refund or credit of any Tax to which the other party is entitled pursuant to Section 3.03 of this Agreement, the party receiving such refund or credit shall pay to the other party the amount of such refund or credit pursuant to Section 7.05 of this Agreement. If one party pays a Tax with respect to which the other party is liable of responsible pursuant to Sections 3.01 through 3.03 of this Agreement, then the liable or responsible party shall pay to the other party the amount of such Tax pursuant to Section 7.05 of this Agreement.

 

7.05.        Payments Under This Agreement. In the event that one party (the “Owing Party”) is required to make a payment to another party (the “Owed Party”) pursuant to this Agreement, then such payments shall be made according to this Section 7.05.

 

(a)          In General. All payments shall be made to the Owed Party or to the appropriate Taxing Authority as specified by the Owed Party within the time prescribed for payment in this Agreement, or if no period is prescribed, within thirty (30) Business Days after delivery of written notice of payment owing together with a computation of the amounts due.

 

 15 

 

 

(b)          Treatment of Payments. Unless otherwise required by any Final Determination, the parties agree that any payments made by one party to another party pursuant to this Agreement (other than (i) payments in respect of the Mobileye Separate Tax Liability for any Post-Deconsolidation Period, (ii) payments of interest pursuant to Section 7.05(e) of this Agreement, and (iii) payments of After Tax Amounts pursuant to Section 7.05(d) of this Agreement) shall be treated for all Tax and financial accounting purposes as nontaxable payments (dividend distributions or capital contributions, as the case may be) and accordingly, as not includible in the taxable income of the recipient or as deductible by the payor.

 

(c)          Prompt Performance. All actions required to be taken (including payments) by any party under this Agreement shall be performed within the time prescribed for performance in this Agreement, or if no period is prescribed, such actions shall be performed promptly.

 

(d)          After Tax Amounts. If, pursuant to a Final Determination, it is determined that the receipt or accrual of any payment made under this Agreement (other than payments of interest pursuant to Section 7.05(e) of this Agreement) is subject to any Tax, the party making such payment shall be liable for (a) the After Tax Amount with respect to such payment and (b) interest at the rate described in Section 7.05(e) of this Agreement on the amount of such Tax from the date such Tax accrues through the date of payment of such After Tax Amount. A party making a demand for a payment pursuant to this Agreement and for a payment of an After Tax Amount with respect to such payment shall separately specify and compute such After Tax Amount. However, a party may choose not to specify an After Tax Amount in a demand for payment pursuant to this Agreement without thereby being deemed to have waived its right subsequently to demand an After Tax Amount with respect to such payment. Mobileye’s liability for any and all payments of the Mobileye Separate Tax Liability for any Post-Deconsolidation Period shall be increased by the After Tax Amount with respect to such payment and decreased by the corresponding Tax Benefit, if any, attributable to such Mobileye Separate Tax Liability.

 

(e)          Interest. Payments pursuant to this Agreement that are not made within the period prescribed in this Agreement (the “Payment Period”) shall bear interest for the period from and including the date immediately following the last date of the Payment Period through and including the date of payment at a per annum rate equal to the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal on the last day of such Payment Period. Such interest will be payable at the same time as the payment to which it relates and shall be calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty-five (365) days and the actual number of days for which due.

 

Section 8.      Tax Proceedings.

Intel’s rights pursuant to this Section 8.01 shall extend to any matter pertaining to the management and control of an Audit, including execution of waivers, choice of forum, scheduling of conferences and the resolution of any Tax Item.

 16 

 

 

8.02.        Notice.

Notwithstanding any provision in Section 9.15 of this Agreement to the contrary, if a party to this Agreement fails to provide the other party notice as required by this Section 8.02, and the failure results in a detriment to the other party then any amount which the other party is otherwise required to pay pursuant to this Agreement shall be reduced by the amount of such detriment.

 

8.03.        Control of Distribution Tax Proceedings. In the event of a Distribution, Intel shall have the exclusive right, in its sole discretion, to control, contest, and represent the interests of Intel, any Intel Affiliate, Mobileye, and/or any Mobileye Affiliate in any Audits relating to Distribution Taxes and to resolve, settle or agree to any deficiency, claim or adjustment proposed, asserted or assessed in connection with or as a result of any such Audit; provided, however, that (i) Mobileye shall be entitled to participate in any such Audit, at its own costs and expenses, to the extent Mobileye or any Mobileye Affiliate would reasonably be expected to bear any material Distribution Taxes, and (ii)  Intel shall not settle any such Audit with respect to Distribution Taxes with a Taxing Authority that would reasonably be expected to result in a material Tax cost to Mobileye or any Mobileye Affiliate, without the prior consent of Mobileye (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Intel’s rights shall extend to any matter pertaining to the management and control of such Audit, including execution of waivers, choice of forum, scheduling of conferences and the resolution of any Tax Item.

Effective as of the date the Corporation becomes subject to the reporting requirements of Rule 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Committee shall consist of two or more Outside Directors who shall be appointed by the Board of Directors.

(b) Delegation and Administration.

The Committee may delegate to a Subcommittee of one or more officers of the Corporation the ability to grant Awards and take the other actions described in Section 3(c) with respect to Participants (other than any such officers themselves) who are not directors or executive officers, provided however that the resolution so authorizing such officer(s) shall specify the total number of Shares, rights or options such Subcommittee may so award, and such actions shall be treated for all purposes as if taken by the Committee.

The Committee may delegate the day to day administration of the Plan to an officer or officers of the Corporation or one or more agents, and such administrator(s) may have the authority to execute and distribute agreements or other documents evidencing or relating to Awards granted by the Committee under this Plan, to maintain records relating to the grant, vesting, exercise, forfeiture or expiration of Awards, to process or oversee the issuance of Shares upon the exercise, vesting and/or settlement of an Award, to interpret the terms of Awards and to take such other actions as the Committee may specify.

Such arrangements and benefits are sometimes referred to herein as “Awards.” The Committee, in its discretion, may determine that any Award granted hereunder shall be a Performance Award.

 

(i) Stock Options. A “Stock Option” is a right to purchase a number of Shares at such exercise price, at such times, and on such other terms and conditions as are specified in or determined pursuant to the document(s) evidencing the Award (the “Option Agreement”). The Committee may grant Stock Options intended to be eligible to qualify as incentive stock options (“ISOs”) pursuant to Section 422 of the Code and Stock Options that are not intended to qualify as ISOs (“Non-qualified Stock Options”), as it, in its sole discretion, shall determine.

 

(ii) Stock Appreciation Rights. A “Stock Appreciation Right” or “SAR” is a right to receive, in cash or stock (as determined by the Committee), value with respect to a specific number of Shares equal to or otherwise based on the excess of (i) the market value of a Share at the time of exercise over (ii) the exercise price of the right, subject to such terms and conditions as are expressed in the document(s) evidencing the Award (the “SAR Agreement”).

(b) Grants of Awards. An Award may consist of one of the foregoing arrangements or benefits or two or more of them in tandem or in the alternative.

 

8. EMPLOYEE, CONSULTANT PARTICIPANT AWARDS

 

(a) Grant, Terms and Conditions of Stock Options and SARs

 

The Committee may grant Stock Options or SARs at any time and from time to time prior to the expiration of the Plan to eligible Participants selected by the Committee. No Participant shall have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares subject to Stock Options or SARs hereunder until said Shares have been issued. Each Stock Option or SAR shall be evidenced only by such agreements, notices and/or terms or conditions documented in such form (including by electronic communications) as may be approved by the Committee. Each Stock Option grant will expressly identify the Stock Option as an ISO or as a Non-qualified Stock Option. Stock Options or SARs granted pursuant to the Plan need not be identical but each must contain or be subject to the following terms and conditions:

 

(i) Price. The purchase price (also referred to as the exercise price) under each Stock Option or SAR granted hereunder shall be established by the Committee. The purchase price per Share shall not be less than 100% of the market value of a Share on the date of grant. The exercise price of a Stock Option shall be paid in cash or in such other form if and to the extent permitted by the Committee, including without limitation by delivery of already owned Shares, withholding (either actually or by attestation) of Shares otherwise issuable under such Stock Option and/or by payment under a broker-assisted sale and remittance program acceptable to the Committee.

 

(ii) No Repricing. Other than in connection with a change in the Corporation’s capitalization or other transaction as described in Section 11(a) through (d) of the Plan, the Corporation shall not, without stockholder approval, reduce the purchase price of a Stock Option or SAR and, at any time when the purchase price of a Stock Option or SAR is above the market value of a Share, the Corporation shall not, without stockholder approval (except in the case of a transaction described in Section 11(a) through (d) of the Plan), cancel and re-grant or exchange such Stock Option or SAR for a new Award with a lower (or no) purchase price or for cash.

 

4

 

 

(iii) No Reload Grants. Stock Options shall not be granted under the Plan in consideration for and shall not be conditioned upon the delivery of Shares to the Corporation in payment of the exercise price and/or tax withholding obligation under any other stock option.

 

(iv) Duration, Exercise and Termination of Stock Options and SARs. Each Stock Option or SAR shall be exercisable at such time and in such installments during the period prior to the expiration of the Stock Option or SAR as determined by the Committee. The Committee shall have the right to make the timing of the ability to exercise any Stock Option or SAR subject to continued employment or service, the passage of time and/or such performance requirements as deemed appropriate by the Committee. At any time after the grant of a Stock Option, the Committee may reduce or eliminate any restrictions on the Participant’s right to exercise all or part of the Stock Option.

 

Each Stock Option or SAR must expire within a period of not more than ten (10) years from the grant date. In each case, the Option Agreement or SAR Agreement may provide for expiration prior to the end of the stated term of the Award in the event of the termination of employment or service of the Participant to whom it was granted.

 

(v) Suspension or Termination of Stock Options and SARs. If at any time (including after a notice of exercise has been delivered) the Committee, including any Subcommittee or administrator authorized pursuant to Section 3(b) (any such person, an “Authorized Officer”), reasonably believes that a Participant, other than an Outside Director, has committed an act of misconduct as described in this Section, the Authorized Officer may suspend the Participant’s right to exercise any Stock Option or SAR pending a determination of whether an act of misconduct has been committed. If the Committee or an Authorized Officer determines a Participant, other than an Outside Director, has committed an act of embezzlement, fraud, dishonesty, nonpayment of any obligation owed to the Corporation, breach of fiduciary duty or deliberate disregard of Corporation rules resulting in loss, damage or injury to the Corporation, or if a Participant makes an unauthorized disclosure of any Corporation trade secret or confidential information, engages in any conduct constituting unfair competition, induces any customer to breach a contract with the Corporation or induces any principal for whom the Corporation acts as agent to terminate such agency relationship, the Committee or an Authorized Officer may determine that neither the Participant nor his or her estate shall be entitled to exercise any Stock Option or SAR whatsoever. In addition, for any Participant who is designated as an “executive officer” by the Board of Directors, if the Committee determines that the Participant engaged in an act of embezzlement, fraud or breach of fiduciary duty during the Participant’s employment that contributed to an obligation to restate the Corporation’s financial statements (“Contributing Misconduct”), the Committee may require the Participant to repay to the Corporation, in cash and upon demand, the Option Proceeds (as defined below) resulting from any sale or other disposition (including to the Corporation) of Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of a Stock Option or SAR if the sale or disposition was effected during the twelve-month period following the first public issuance or filing with the SEC of the financial statements required to be restated. The term “Option Proceeds” means, with respect to any sale or other disposition (including to the Corporation) of Shares issuable or issued upon exercise of a Stock Option or SAR, an amount determined appropriate by the Committee to reflect the effect of the restatement, up to the amount equal to the number of Shares sold or disposed of multiplied by the difference between the market value per Share at the time of such sale or disposition and the exercise price. The return of Option Proceeds is in addition to and separate from any other relief available to the Corporation due to the executive officer’s Contributing Misconduct. Any determination by the Committee or an Authorized Officer with respect to the foregoing shall be final, conclusive and binding on all interested parties. For any Participant who is an executive officer, the determination of the Committee or of the Authorized Officer shall be subject to the approval of the Board of Directors.

 

(vi) Conditions and Restrictions Upon Securities Subject to Stock Options or SARs. Subject to the express provisions of the Plan, the Committee may provide that the Shares issued upon exercise of a Stock Option or SAR shall be subject to such further conditions or agreements as the Committee in its discretion may specify prior to the exercise of such Stock Option or SAR, including, without limitation, conditions on vesting or transferability, forfeiture or repurchase provisions. The obligation to make payments with respect to SARs may be satisfied through cash payments or the delivery of Shares, or a combination thereof as the Committee shall determine. The Committee may establish rules for the deferred delivery of Common Stock upon exercise of a Stock Option or SAR with the deferral evidenced by use of Restricted Stock Units equal in number to the number of Shares whose delivery is so deferred.

 

(vii) Other Terms and Conditions. Stock Options and SARs may also contain such other provisions, which shall not be inconsistent with any of the foregoing terms, as the Committee shall deem appropriate.

 

5

 

 

(viii) ISOs. Stock Options intending to qualify as ISOs may only be granted to employees of the Corporation within the meaning of the Code, as determined by the Committee. No ISO shall be granted to any person if immediately after the grant of such Award, such person would own stock, including stock subject to outstanding Awards held by him or her under the Plan or any other plan established by the Corporation, amounting to more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Corporation. To the extent that the Option Agreement specifies that a Stock Option is intended to be treated as an ISO, the Stock Option is intended to qualify to the greatest extent possible as an “incentive stock option” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, and shall be so construed; provided, however, that any such designation shall not be interpreted as a representation, guarantee or other undertaking on the part of the Corporation that the Stock Option is or will be determined to qualify as an ISO. If and to the extent that any Shares are issued under a portion of any Stock Option that exceeds the $100,000 limitation of Section 422 of the Code, such Shares shall not be treated as issued under an ISO notwithstanding any designation otherwise. Certain decisions, amendments, interpretations and actions by the Committee and certain actions by a Participant may cause a Stock Option to cease to qualify as an ISO pursuant to the Code and by accepting a Stock Option the Participant agrees in advance to such disqualifying action.

 

(b) Grant, Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units

 

The Committee may grant Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units at any time and from time to time prior to the expiration of the Plan to eligible Participants selected by the Committee. A Participant shall have rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares subject to a Restricted Stock Award hereunder only to the extent specified in this Plan or the Restricted Stock Agreement evidencing such Award. Awards of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units shall be evidenced only by such agreements, notices and/or terms or conditions documented in such form (including by electronic communications) as may be approved by the Committee. Awards of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to the Plan need not be identical but each must contain or be subject to the following terms and conditions:

 

(i) Terms and Conditions. Each Restricted Stock Agreement and each Restricted Stock Unit Agreement shall contain provisions regarding (a) the number of Shares subject to such Award or a formula for determining such, (b) the purchase price of the Shares, if any, and the means of payment for the Shares, (c) the performance criteria, if any, and level of achievement versus these criteria that shall determine the number of Shares granted, issued, retainable and/or vested, (d) such terms and conditions on the grant, issuance, vesting and/or forfeiture of the Shares as may be determined from time to time by the Committee, (e) restrictions on the transferability of the Shares and (f) such further terms and conditions as may be determined from time to time by the Committee, in each case not inconsistent with this Plan.

 

(ii) Sale Price. Subject to the requirements of applicable law, the Committee shall determine the price, if any, at which Shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units shall be sold or awarded to a Participant, which may vary from time to time and among Participants and which may be below the market value of such Shares at the date of grant or issuance.

 

(iii) Share Vesting. The grant, issuance, retention and/or vesting of Shares under Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock

Unit Awards shall be at such time and in such installments as determined by the Committee or under criteria established by the Committee. The Committee shall have the right to make the timing of the grant and/or the issuance, the ability to retain and/or the vesting of Shares under Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit Awards subject to the Participant’s continued employment or service, passage of time and/or such performance criteria and level of achievement versus these criteria, as deemed appropriate by the Committee, which criteria may be based on financial performance and/or personal performance evaluations. No condition that is based on performance criteria and level of achievement versus such criteria shall be based on performance over a period of less than one year.

 

(iv) Termination of Employment/Service. The Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit Agreement may provide for the forfeiture or cancellation of the Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit Award, in whole or in part, in the event of the termination of employment or service of the Participant to whom it was granted.

 

(v) Restricted Stock Units. Except to the extent this Plan or the Committee specifies otherwise, Restricted Stock Units represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Corporation and do not confer any of the rights of a stockholder until Shares are issued thereunder. Settlement of Restricted Stock Units upon expiration of the deferral or vesting period shall be made in Shares or otherwise as determined by the Committee. Dividends or dividend equivalent rights shall be payable in cash or in additional shares with respect to Restricted Stock Units only to the extent specifically provided for by the Committee and subject to the limitations of Section 10(c). Until a Restricted Stock Unit is settled, the number of Shares represented by a Restricted Stock Unit shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 11. Any Restricted Stock Units that are settled after the Participant’s death shall be distributed to the Participant’s designated beneficiary(ies) or, if none was designated, the Participant’s estate.

 

6

 

 

(vi) Suspension or Termination of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units. If at any time the Committee, including any Subcommittee or administrator authorized pursuant to Section 3(b) (any such person, an “Authorized Officer”), reasonably believes that a Participant, other than an Outside Director, has committed an act of misconduct as described in this Section, the Authorized Officer may suspend the vesting of Shares under the Participant’s Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit Awards pending a determination of whether an act of misconduct has been committed. If the Committee or an Authorized Officer determines a Participant, other than an Outside Director, has committed an act of embezzlement, fraud, dishonesty, nonpayment of any obligation owed to the Corporation, breach of fiduciary duty or deliberate disregard of Corporation rules resulting in loss, damage or injury to the Corporation, or if a Participant makes an unauthorized disclosure of any Corporation trade secret or confidential information, engages in any conduct constituting unfair competition, induces any customer to breach a contract with the Corporation or induces any principal for whom the Corporation acts as agent to terminate such agency relationship, the Committee or an Authorized Officer may determine that the Participant’s Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit Agreement shall be forfeited and cancelled. In addition, for any Participant who is designated as an “executive officer” by the Board of Directors, if the Committee determines that the Participant engaged in an act of embezzlement, fraud or breach of fiduciary duty during the Participant’s employment that contributed to an obligation to restate the Corporation’s financial statements (“Contributing Misconduct”), the Committee may require the Participant to repay to the Corporation, in cash and upon demand, the Restricted Stock Proceeds (as defined below) resulting from any sale or other disposition (including to the Corporation) of Shares issued or issuable upon the vesting of Restricted Stock or a Restricted Stock Unit if the sale or disposition was effected during the twelve-month period following the first public issuance or filing with the SEC of the financial statements required to be restated. The term “Restricted Stock Proceeds” means, with respect to any sale or other disposition (including to the Corporation) of Shares issued or issuable upon vesting of Restricted Stock or a Restricted Stock Unit, an amount determined appropriate by the Committee to reflect the effect of the restatement, up to the amount equal to the market value per Share at the time of such sale or other disposition multiplied by the number of Shares or units sold or disposed of. The return of Restricted Stock Proceeds is in addition to and separate from any other relief available to the Corporation due to the executive officer’s Contributing Misconduct. Any determination by the Committee or an Authorized Officer with respect to the foregoing shall be final, conclusive and binding on all interested parties. For any Participant who is an executive officer, the determination of the Committee or of the Authorized Officer shall be subject to the approval of the Board of Directors.

 

9. OUTSIDE DIRECTOR AWARDS

 

The number of Awards granted to each Outside Director in a fiscal year of the Corporation (“Outside Director Awards”) is limited, so that the grant date fair value of all Outside Director Awards granted by the Board of Directors combined with all cash-based compensation earned in the same fiscal year, may not exceed $500,000. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, the foregoing limitation shall be subject to adjustment under Section 11. The number of Shares subject to each Outside Director Award, or the formula pursuant to which such number shall be determined, the type or types of Awards included in the Outside Director Awards, the date of grant and the vesting, expiration and other terms applicable to such Outside Director Awards shall be specified from time to time by the Board of Directors, subject to the terms of this Plan, including the terms specified in Section 8. If the Board of Directors reasonably believes that an Outside Director has committed an act of misconduct as specified in Section 8(a)(v) or 8(b)(vi), the Board of Directors may suspend the Outside Director’s right to exercise any Stock Option or SAR and/or the vesting of any Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit Award pending a determination of whether an act of misconduct has been committed. If the Board of Directors determines that an Outside Director has committed an act of misconduct, neither the Outside Director nor his or her estate shall be entitled to exercise any Stock Option or SAR whatsoever and shall forfeit any unvested Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit Award.

 

10.  OTHER PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO AWARDS

 

(a) Transferability. Unless the agreement or other document evidencing an Award (or an amendment thereto authorized by the Committee) expressly states that the Award is transferable as provided hereunder, no Award granted under this Plan, nor any interest in such Award, may be sold, assigned, conveyed, gifted, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred in any manner, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or as permitted by Rule 701 of the Securities Act of 1933. Further, until the Corporation becomes subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, or after the Board of Directors or the Committee, as applicable, determines that it is, will, or may no longer be relying upon the exemption from registration under the Exchange Act as set forth in Rule 12h-1(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, an Option, or prior to exercise, the Shares subject to the Option, may not be pledged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred or disposed of, in any manner, including by entering into any short position, any “put equivalent position” or any “call equivalent position” (as defined in Rule 16a-1(h) and Rule 16a-1(b) of the Exchange Act, respectively), other than to (i) persons who are “family members” (as defined in Rule 701(c)(3) of the Securities Act) through gifts or domestic relations orders, or (ii) to an executor or guardian of the Participant upon the death or disability of the Participant..

Notwithstanding satisfaction of any completion of any Performance Criteria, to the extent specified at the time of grant of an Award, the number of Shares, Stock Options, SARs, Restricted Stock Units or other benefits granted, issued, retainable and/or vested under an Award on account of satisfaction of such Performance Criteria may be reduced by the Committee on the basis of such further considerations as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine.

 

(c) Dividends. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, no adjustment shall be made in Shares issuable under Awards on account of cash dividends that may be paid or other rights that may be issued to the holders of Shares prior to their issuance under any Award. The Committee shall specify whether dividends or dividend equivalent amounts shall be credited and/or payable to any Participant with respect to the Shares subject to any Award; provided, however, that in no event will dividends or dividend equivalents be credited or payable in respect of Stock Options or SARs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, dividends or dividend equivalents credited/payable in connection with an Award that is not yet vested shall be subject to the same restrictions and risk of forfeiture as the underlying Award and shall not be paid until the underlying Award vests.

 

(d) Documents Evidencing Awards. The Committee shall, subject to applicable law, determine the date an Award is deemed to be granted. The Committee or, except to the extent prohibited under applicable law, its delegate(s) may establish the terms of agreements or other documents evidencing Awards under this Plan and may, but need not, require as a condition to any such agreement’s or document’s effectiveness that such agreement or document be executed by the Participant, including by electronic signature or other electronic indication of acceptance, and that such Participant agree to such further terms and conditions as specified in such agreement or document. The grant of an Award under this Plan shall not confer any rights upon the Participant holding such Award other than such terms, and subject to such conditions, as are specified in this Plan as being applicable to such type of Award (or to all Awards) or as are expressly set forth in the agreement or other document evidencing such Award.

 

(e) Additional Restrictions on Awards.

 

(i) Either at the time an Award is granted or by subsequent action, the Committee may, but need not, impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales by a Participant or other subsequent transfers by a Participant of any Shares issued under an Award, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by the Participant or Participants, and (c) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for receipt, resales or other transfers of such Shares.

 

(ii) In connection with an initial offering of the Corporation’s Shares pursuant to a registration statement filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission and upon request of the Corporation or the underwriters managing such offering of the Corporation’s securities, Participants shall not sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Corporation however or whenever acquired (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Corporation or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed 180 days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Corporation or such managing underwriters and Participant shall execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters in connection with such offering. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if during the last 17 days of the restricted period, the Corporation issues an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to the Corporation occurs, or prior to the expiration of the restricted period the Corporation announces that it will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the restricted period, then, upon the request of the managing underwriter, to the extent required by any Financial Industry Regulatory Authority rules, the restrictions imposed by this subsection shall continue to apply until the end of the third trading day following the expiration of the 15-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event. In no event will the restricted period extend beyond 216 days after the effective date of the registration statement.

(f) Subsidiary Awards. In the case of a grant of an Award to any Participant employed by or providing services to a Subsidiary, such grant may, if the Committee so directs, be implemented by the Corporation issuing any subject Shares to the Subsidiary, for such lawful consideration as the Committee may determine, upon the condition or understanding that the Subsidiary will transfer the Shares to the Participant in accordance with the terms of the Award specified by the Committee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, such Award may be issued by and in the name of the Subsidiary and shall be deemed granted on such date as the Committee shall determine.

 

(g) Compensation Recovery. This provision applies to any policy adopted by any exchange on which the securities of the Corporation are listed pursuant to Section 10D of the Exchange Act, as applicable. To the extent any such policy requires the repayment of incentive-based compensation received by a Participant, whether paid pursuant to an Award granted under this Plan or any other plan of incentive-based compensation maintained in the past or adopted in the future by the Corporation, by accepting an Award under this Plan, the Participant agrees to the repayment of such amounts to the extent required by such policy and applicable law.

 

11. ADJUSTMENT OF AND CHANGES IN THE COMMON STOCK

 

(a) The existence of outstanding Awards shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Corporation or its shareholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, exchanges, or other changes in the Corporation’s capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Corporation or any issuance of Shares or other securities or subscription rights thereto, or any issuance of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stock ahead of or affecting the Shares or other securities of the Corporation or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise. Further, except as expressly provided herein or by the Committee, (i) the issuance by the Corporation of shares of stock or any class of securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, for cash, property, labor or services, upon direct sale, upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor, or upon conversion of shares or obligations of the Corporation convertible into such shares or other securities, (ii) the payment of a dividend in property other than Shares, or (iii) the occurrence of any similar transaction, and in any case whether or not for fair value, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of Shares subject to Stock Options or other Awards theretofore granted or the purchase price per Share, unless the Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, that an adjustment is necessary or appropriate provided, however, that the Administrator will make such adjustments to an Award required by Section 25102(o) of the California Corporations Code to the extent the Corporation is relying upon the exemption afforded thereby with respect to the Award.

 

(b) If the outstanding Shares or other securities of the Corporation, or both, for which the Award is then exercisable or as to which the Award is to be settled shall at any time be changed or exchanged by declaration of a stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, extraordinary dividend of cash and/or assets, recapitalization, reorganization or any similar equity restructuring transaction (as that term is used in Accounting Standards Codification 718) affecting the Shares or other securities of the Corporation, the Committee shall equitably adjust the number and kind of Shares or other securities that are subject to this Plan and to the limits under Sections 6 and 9 and that are subject to any Awards theretofore granted, and the exercise or settlement prices of such Awards, so as to maintain the proportionate number of Shares or other securities subject to such Awards without changing the aggregate exercise or settlement price, if any.

 

(c) No right to purchase fractional Shares shall result from any adjustment in Stock Options or SARs pursuant to this Section 11. In case of any such adjustment, the Shares subject to the Stock Option or SAR shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share.

 

(d) Any other provision hereof to the contrary notwithstanding (except Section 11(a)), in the event the Corporation is a party to a merger or other reorganization, outstanding Awards shall be subject to the agreement of merger or reorganization. Such agreement may provide, without limitation, for the assumption of outstanding Awards by the surviving corporation or its parent, for their continuation by the Corporation (if the Corporation is a surviving corporation), for accelerated vesting and accelerated expiration, or for settlement in cash.

12. LISTING OR QUALIFICATION OF COMMON STOCK

 

In the event that the Committee determines in its discretion that the listing or qualification of the Shares available for issuance under the Plan on any securities exchange or quotation or trading system or under any applicable law or governmental regulation is necessary as a condition to the issuance of such Shares, a Stock Option or SAR may not be exercised in whole or in part and a Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit Award shall not vest or be settled unless such listing, qualification, consent or approval has been unconditionally obtained.

 

13. TERMINATION OR AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN

 

The Board of Directors may amend, alter or discontinue the Plan and the Board of Directors or the Committee may to the extent permitted by the Plan amend any agreement or other document evidencing an Award made under this Plan, including pursuant to Section 3(c)(vii), provided, however, that the Corporation shall submit for stockholder approval any amendment (other than an amendment pursuant to the adjustment provisions of Section 11) required to be submitted for stockholder approval by an applicable stock exchange or a national market system upon which Shares are traded or that otherwise would:

 

(a) Increase the maximum number of Shares for which Awards may be granted under this Plan;

 

(b) Reduce the price at which Stock Options may be granted below the price provided for in Section 8(a);

 

(c) Reduce the option price of outstanding Stock Options;

 

(d) Extend the term of this Plan;

 

(e) Change the class of persons eligible to be Participants; or

 

(f) Increase the limits in Section 6.

 

In addition, no such amendment or alteration shall be made which would impair the rights of any Participant, without such Participant’s consent, under any Award theretofore granted, provided that no such consent shall be required with respect to any amendment or alteration made pursuant to Section 3(c)(vii) or if the Committee otherwise determines in its sole discretion that such amendment or alteration either (i) is required or advisable in order for the Corporation, the Plan or the Award to satisfy or conform to any law or regulation or to meet the requirements of any accounting standard, or (ii) is not reasonably likely to significantly diminish the benefits provided under such Award, or that any such diminishment has been adequately compensated.

 

14. WITHHOLDING

 

To the extent required by applicable federal, state, local or foreign law, the Committee may and/or a Participant shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Corporation for the satisfaction of any withholding tax obligations that arise with respect to any Stock Option, SAR, Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit Award, or any sale of Shares. The Corporation shall not be required to issue Shares or to recognize the disposition of such Shares until such obligations are satisfied. To the extent permitted or required by the Committee, these obligations may or shall be satisfied by having the Corporation withhold a portion of the Shares of stock that otherwise would be issued to a Participant under such Award or by tendering Shares previously acquired by the Participant equal to an amount no greater than the maximum statutory tax rate applicable to such Participant in all relevant jurisdictions, and in all cases reduced by the amount of any withholding obligation a Participant satisfies by cash payment to the Corporation.

 

15. GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

(a) Employment At Will. Neither the Plan nor the grant of any Award nor any action by the Corporation, any Subsidiary or the Committee shall be held or construed to confer upon any person any right to be continued in the employ of or service to the Corporation or a Subsidiary. The Corporation and each Subsidiary expressly reserve the right to discharge, without liability but subject to his or her rights under this Plan, any Participant whenever in the sole discretion of the Corporation or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, it may determine to do so.

 

(b) Governing Law. This Plan and any agreements or other documents hereunder shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware and applicable federal law. The Committee may provide that any dispute as to any Award shall be presented and determined in such forum as the Committee may specify, including through binding arbitration. Any reference in this Plan or in the agreement or other document evidencing any Award to a provision of law or to a rule or regulation shall be deemed to include any successor law, rule or regulation of similar effect or applicability.

 

10

 

 

(c) Unfunded Plan. Insofar as it provides for Awards, the Plan shall be unfunded. Although bookkeeping accounts may be established with respect to Participants who are granted Awards under this Plan, any such accounts will be used merely as a bookkeeping convenience. The Corporation shall not be required to segregate any assets which may at any time be represented by Awards, nor shall this Plan be construed as providing for such segregation, nor shall the Corporation or the Committee be deemed to be a trustee of stock or cash to be awarded under the Plan.

 

(d) Third Party Administrator. In connection with a Participant’s participation in the Plan, the Corporation may use the services of a third party administrator, including a brokerage firm administrator, and the Corporation may provide this administrator with personal information about a Participant, including a Participant’s name, social security number and address, as well as the details of each Award, and this administrator may provide information to the Corporation concerning the exercise of a Participant’s rights and account data as it relates to Awards under the Plan.

 

(e) Investment Representations. As a condition to the exercise of an Award, the Corporation may require the person exercising such Award to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Corporation, such a representation is required.

 

16. NON-EXCLUSIVITY OF PLAN

 

Neither the adoption of this Plan by the Board of Directors nor the submission of this Plan to the shareholders of the Corporation for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board of Directors or the Committee to adopt such other incentive arrangements as either may deem desirable, including, without limitation, the granting of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock or restricted stock units otherwise than under this Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

 

17. COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER LAWS AND REGULATIONS

 

This Plan, the grant and exercise of Awards thereunder, and the obligation of the Corporation to sell, issue or deliver Shares under such Awards, shall be subject to all applicable federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any governmental or regulatory agency as may be required. The Corporation shall not be required to register in a Participant’s name or deliver any Shares prior to the completion of any registration or qualification of such Shares under any federal, state or local law or any ruling or regulation of any government body which the Committee shall determine to be necessary or advisable. To the extent the Corporation is unable to or the Committee deems it infeasible to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Corporation’s counsel to be necessary or advisable for the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, the Corporation shall be relieved of any liability with respect to the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. No Stock Option shall be exercisable and no Shares shall be issued and/or transferable under any other Award unless a registration statement with respect to the Shares underlying such Stock Option is effective and current or the Corporation has determined that such registration is unnecessary.

 

18. LIABILITY OF CORPORATION

 

The Corporation shall not be liable to a Participant or other persons as to: (a) the non-issuance or sale of Shares as to which the Corporation has been unable to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority deemed by the Corporation’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder; and (b) any tax consequence expected, but not realized, by any Participant or other person due to the receipt, exercise or settlement of any Stock Option or other Award granted hereunder.

Exhibit 10.9

 

MOBILEYE GLOBAL INC.
2022 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

 

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

 

1.              Terms of Restricted Stock Unit. This Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, including any appendix attached hereto (this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement and such appendix, together, this “Agreement”), the Restricted Stock Unit Notice of Grant delivered online by logging into the E*TRADE Financial Corporation website (the “Notice of Grant”) and the Mobileye Global Inc. 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2022 Plan”), as such may be amended from time to time, constitute the entire understanding between you and Mobileye Global Inc. (the “Corporation”) regarding the Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) identified in your Notice of Grant. The RSUs granted to you are effective as of the grant date set forth in the Notice of Grant (the “Grant Date”). If there is any conflict between the terms in this Agreement and the 2022 Plan, the terms of the 2022 Plan will control. Capitalized terms not explicitly defined in this Agreement or in the Notice of Grant but defined in the 2022 Plan will have the same definitions as in the 2022 Plan.

 

2.              Acceptance. If you are instructed by the administrators of the 2022 Plan to accept this Agreement and you fail to do so in the manner specified by the administrators within the earlier of (i) the first vest date or (ii) 180 days following the Grant Date, the RSUs identified in your Notice of Grant will be cancelled, except as otherwise determined by the Corporation in its sole discretion.

 

3.              Vesting of RSUs. Provided that you remain continuously employed by, or continuously provide services to, the Corporation or a Subsidiary from the Grant Date specified in the Notice of Grant through each vesting date specified in the Notice of Grant, the RSUs allocated to each vesting date will vest and be converted into the right to receive the number of shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock, $0.01 par value (the “Common Stock”), except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. In the event a vesting date for any RSUs falls on a weekend or any other day on which the applicable stock exchange or national market system upon which the Common Stock is traded (“Exchange”) is not open, such RSUs will vest on the vesting date specified in the Notice of Grant, but the Market Value (as defined in the 2022 Plan) of such vested RSUs, including for purposes of tax withholding and reporting, will be determined as of the next following Exchange trading day; provided, however, that if you are designated by the Board of Directors to be an “officer” as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (a “Section 16 Officer”), the foregoing shall not apply, and your affected RSUs’ will vest on the next following Exchange trading day and the Market Value of such vested RSUs will be determined as of the date the RSUs vested. The number of shares of Common Stock into which RSUs convert as specified in the Notice of Grant will be adjusted for stock splits and similar matters as specified in and pursuant to the 2022 Plan.

 

RSUs will vest to the extent provided in and in accordance with the terms of the Notice of Grant and this Agreement. If your status as an employee, Consultant or Outside Director terminates for any reason except death or Disablement (defined below), prior to the vesting dates set forth in your Notice of Grant, your unvested RSUs will be cancelled.

 

4.              Conversion into Common Stock. Shares of Common Stock will be issued or become free of restrictions as soon as practicable following vesting of the RSUs, provided that you have satisfied your tax withholding obligations as specified under Section 9 of this Agreement and you have completed, signed and returned any documents and taken any additional action that the Corporation deems appropriate to enable it to accomplish the delivery of the shares of Common Stock. The shares of Common Stock will be issued in your name (or may be issued to your executor or personal representative, in the event of your death or Disablement), and may be effected by recording shares on the stock records of the Corporation or by crediting shares in an account established on your behalf with a brokerage firm or other custodian, in each case as determined by the Corporation. In no event will the Corporation be obligated to issue a fractional share.

 

 

 

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Corporation will not be obligated to deliver any shares of the Common Stock during any period when the Corporation determines that the conversion of a RSU or the delivery of shares hereunder would violate any laws of the United States or your country of residence and/or employment and/or may issue shares subject to any restrictive legends that, as determined by the Corporation’s counsel, is necessary to comply with securities or other regulatory requirements, and (ii) the date on which shares are issued may include a delay in order to provide the Corporation such time as it determines appropriate to address tax withholding and other administrative matters.

 

5.              Suspension or Termination of RSU for Misconduct. If at any time the Committee of the Board of Directors of the Corporation established pursuant to the 2022 Plan (the “Committee”), including any Subcommittee or “Authorized Officer” (as defined in Section 8(b)(vi) of the 2022 Plan) notifies the Corporation that they reasonably believe that you have committed an act of misconduct as described in Section 8(b)(vi) of the 2022 Plan (embezzlement, fraud, dishonesty, nonpayment of any obligation owed to the Corporation, breach of fiduciary duty or deliberate disregard of Corporation rules resulting in loss, damage or injury to the Corporation, an unauthorized disclosure of any Corporation trade secret or confidential information, any conduct constituting unfair competition, inducing any customer to breach a contract with the Corporation or inducing any principal for whom the Corporation acts as agent to terminate such agency relationship), the vesting of your RSUs may be suspended pending a determination of whether an act of misconduct has been committed. If the Corporation determines that you have committed an act of misconduct, all RSUs not vested as of the date the Corporation was notified that you may have committed an act of misconduct will be cancelled and neither you nor any beneficiary will be entitled to any claim with respect to the RSUs whatsoever. Any determination by the Committee or an Authorized Officer with respect to the foregoing will be final, conclusive, and binding on all interested parties.

 

6.              Termination of Employment/Service. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, if your employment by, or service with, the Corporation or any Subsidiary terminates for any reason, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, other than on account of death or Disablement (defined below), all RSUs not then vested will be cancelled on the date of such termination, regardless of whether such termination is as a result of a divestiture or otherwise. For purposes of this Section 6, your employment or service with any partnership, joint venture or corporation not meeting the requirements of a Subsidiary in which the Corporation or a Subsidiary is a party will be considered employment or service for purposes of this provision if either (a) the entity is designated by the Committee as a Subsidiary for purposes of this provision or (b) you are specifically designated as an employee, Consultant or Outside Director of a Subsidiary for purposes of this provision.

 

For purposes of this provision, your employment or service is not deemed terminated if, prior to 60 days after the date of termination from the Corporation or a Subsidiary, you are rehired by the Corporation or a Subsidiary on a basis that would make you eligible for future RSU grants by the Corporation. In addition, your transfer from the Corporation to any Subsidiary or from any one Subsidiary to another, or from a Subsidiary to the Corporation is not deemed a termination of employment or service.

 

7.              Death. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, if you die while employed by, or providing services to, the Corporation or any Subsidiary, your RSUs will become 100% vested.

 

8.              Disablement. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, if your employment or service terminates as a result of Disablement, your RSUs will become 100% vested upon the later of the date of your termination due to your Disablement or the date of determination of your Disablement. “Disablement” will mean a physical condition arising from an illness or injury, which renders you incapable of performing work in your regular occupation, as determined by the Corporation. Your regular occupation is the occupation you routinely perform at the time your Disablement began.

 

-2-

 

 

9.              Tax Withholding.

 

(a)               To the extent RSUs are subject to tax withholding obligations, the taxable amount generally will be based on the Market Value on the date of the taxable event. RSUs are taxable in accordance with the existing or future tax laws of the country or countries in which you are subject to tax such as the country or countries in which you reside and/or are employed on the Grant Date, vest dates, or during the vesting period. Your RSUs may be taxable in more than one country, based on your country of citizenship and/or the countries in which you resided or were employed on the Grant Date, vest date or during the vesting or other relevant period.

 

(b)               You will make arrangements satisfactory to the Corporation (or the Subsidiary that employs you, if your Subsidiary is involved in the administration of the 2022 Plan) for the payment and satisfaction of any income tax, social security tax, payroll tax, social taxes, applicable national or local taxes, or payment on account of other tax related to withholding obligations that arise by reason of granting or vesting of RSUs or sale of Common Stock shares from vested RSUs (whichever is applicable).

 

(c)               The Corporation will not be required to issue or lift any restrictions on shares of the Common Stock pursuant to your RSUs or to recognize any purported transfer of shares of the Common Stock until such obligations are satisfied.

 

(d)               Unless provided otherwise by the Committee, these obligations will be satisfied by the Corporation withholding a number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issued under the RSUs that the Corporation determines has a Market Value sufficient to meet the maximum tax withholding obligations in all relevant jurisdictions, reduced by the amount of any withholding obligation you have already satisfied by cash payment to the Corporation. In the event that the Committee provides that these obligations will not be satisfied under the method described in the previous sentence, you authorize E*TRADE Financial Corporate Services, Inc. and E*TRADE Securities LLC (“E*Trade”), or any successor plan administrator, to sell a number of shares of Common Stock that are issued under the RSUs, which the Corporation determines is sufficient to generate an amount that meets the tax withholding obligations plus additional shares to account for rounding and market fluctuations, and to pay such tax withholding to the Corporation for remittance to the appropriate tax authorities. The shares may be sold as part of a block trade with other Participants in which all Participants receive an average price.

 

(e)               You are ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed by you in connection with your RSUs, regardless of any action the Corporation takes or any transaction pursuant to this Section 9 with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the RSUs. The Corporation makes no representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the grant, issuance, vesting or settlement of the RSUs or the subsequent sale of any of the shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs that vest. The Corporation does not commit and is under no obligation to structure the RSU program to reduce or eliminate your tax liability.

 

10.            Rights as Stockholder. Your RSUs may not be otherwise sold, assigned, conveyed, gifted, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred in any manner, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or as permitted by Rule 701 of the Securities Act of 1933. Any attempt to transfer, assign, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of your RSUs other than as permitted above, will be void and unenforceable against the Corporation.

 

-3-

 

 

You will have the rights of a stockholder only after shares of the Common Stock have been issued to you following vesting of your RSUs and satisfaction of all other conditions to the issuance of those shares as set forth in this Agreement. RSUs will not entitle you to any rights of a stockholder of Common Stock and there are no voting or dividend rights with respect to your RSUs. RSUs will remain terminable pursuant to this Agreement at all times until they vest and convert into shares. As a condition to having the right to receive shares of Common Stock pursuant to your RSUs, you acknowledge that unvested RSUs will have no value for purposes of any aspect of your employment or service relationship with the Corporation or a Subsidiary.

 

11.            Disputes. Any question concerning the interpretation of this Agreement, your Notice of Grant, the RSUs or the 2022 Plan, any adjustments required to be made thereunder, and any controversy that may arise under this Agreement, your Notice of Grant, the RSUs or the 2022 Plan will be determined by the Committee (including any person(s) to whom the Committee has delegated its authority) in its sole and absolute discretion. Such decision by the Committee will be final and binding unless determined pursuant to Section 14(f) to have been arbitrary and capricious.

 

12.            Amendments. The 2022 Plan and RSUs may be amended or altered by the Committee or the Board of Directors of the Corporation to the extent provided in the 2022 Plan.

 

13.            Data Privacy. You explicitly and unambiguously consent to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data as described in this document and any other RSU grant materials (“Data”) by and among, as applicable, the Corporation, the Subsidiary that employs you or you provide services for (the “Employer”) and any other Subsidiary for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing your participation in the 2022 Plan.

 

You hereby understand that the Corporation holds certain personal information about you, including, but not limited to, your name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Corporation, details of all RSUs or any other entitlement to shares of stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in your favor for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the 2022 Plan. You hereby understand that Data will be transferred to E*Trade and any other third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the 2022 Plan, that these recipients may be located in your country or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than your country. You hereby understand that you may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting your local human resources representative. You authorize the Corporation, E*Trade and any other possible recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing your participation in the 2022 Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to another broker or other third party with whom you may elect to deposit any shares of Common Stock acquired under your RSUs. You hereby understand that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage your participation in the 2022 Plan. You hereby understand that you may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing your local human resources representative.

 

Further, you understand that you are providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If you do not consent, or if you later seek to revoke your consent, your employment status or service with the Employer will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing your consent is that the Corporation would not be able to grant you RSUs or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, you hereby understand that refusing or withdrawing your consent may affect your ability to participate in the 2022 Plan. For more information on the consequences of your refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, you hereby understand that you may contact the human resources representative responsible for your country at the local or regional level.

 

Finally, upon request of the Corporation or the Employer, you agree to provide an executed data privacy consent form (or any other agreements or consents) that the Corporation and/or the Employer may deem necessary to obtain from you for the purpose of administering your participation in the 2022 Plan in compliance with the data privacy laws in your country, either now or in the future. You understand and agree that you will not be able to participate in the 2022 Plan if you fail to provide any such consent or agreement requested by the Corporation and/or the Employer.

14.            The 2022 Plan and Other Terms.

 

(a)               Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the RSUs are superseded by this Agreement and your Notice of Grant. You hereby acknowledge that a copy of the 2022 Plan has been made available to you.

 

(b)               The grant of RSUs to an employee, Consultant or Outside Director in any one year, or at any time, does not obligate the Corporation or any Subsidiary to make a grant in any future year or in any given amount and should not create an expectation that the Corporation or any Subsidiary might make a grant in any future year or in any given amount.

 

(c)               In connection with an initial offering of the Corporation’s Shares pursuant to a registration statement filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission and upon request of the Corporation or the underwriters managing such offering of the Corporation’s securities, Participant hereby agrees not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Corporation however or whenever acquired (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Corporation or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed 180 days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Corporation or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the Corporation’s initial public offering. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if during the last 17 days of the restricted period, the Corporation issues an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to the Corporation occurs, or prior to the expiration of the restricted period the Corporation announces that it will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the restricted period, then, upon the request of the managing underwriter, to the extent required by any Financial Industry Regulatory Authority rules, the restrictions imposed by this subsection shall continue to apply until the end of the third trading day following the expiration of the 15-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event. In no event will the restricted period extend beyond 216 days after the effective date of the registration statement.

 

(d)               Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any changes in law or the financial or tax accounting rules applicable to the RSUs covered by this Agreement will occur, the Corporation may, in its sole discretion, (i) modify this Agreement to impose such restrictions or procedures with respect to the RSUs (whether vested or unvested), the shares issued or issuable pursuant to the RSUs and/or any proceeds or payments from or relating to such shares as it determines to be necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable law or to address, comply with or offset the economic effect to the Corporation of any accounting or administrative matters relating thereto, or (ii) cancel and cause a forfeiture with respect to any unvested RSUs at the time of such determination.

(e)               Nothing contained in this Agreement creates or implies an employment contract or term of employment upon which you may rely.

 

(f)                Because this Agreement relates to terms and conditions under which you may be issued shares of Common Stock, an essential term of this Agreement is that it will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to choice of law principles of Delaware or other jurisdictions. Any action, suit, or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the RSUs granted hereunder will be brought in the state or federal courts of competent jurisdiction in the State of California.

 

(g)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the applicable Notice of Grant, your RSUs are subject to reduction by the Corporation if you change your employment classification from a full-time employee to a part-time employee, or from a full-time employee to a Consultant or Outside Director.

 

(h)               RSUs are not part of your employment or service contract (if any) with the Corporation or any Subsidiary, your salary or fees, your normal or expected compensation, or other remuneration for any purposes, including for purposes of computing severance pay or other termination compensation or indemnity.

 

(i)                 In consideration of the grant of RSUs, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages will arise from termination of your RSUs or diminution in value of the RSUs or Common Stock acquired through vested RSUs resulting from termination of your active employment by the Corporation (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws) and you hereby release the Corporation from any such claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, then you will be deemed irrevocably to have waived your entitlement to pursue such claim.

 

(j)                 Notwithstanding any terms or conditions of the 2022 Plan to the contrary, in the event of involuntary termination of your employment (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), your right to receive the RSUs and vest in RSUs under the 2022 Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of the date that you are no longer actively employed and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active employment would not include a period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); furthermore, in the event of involuntary termination of employment (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), your right to sell shares of Common Stock that converted from vested RSUs after termination of employment, if any, will be measured by the date of termination of your active employment and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law.

 

(k)               Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the Notice of Grant or the 2022 Plan to the contrary, if, at the time of your termination of employment with the Corporation, you are a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”), and one or more of the payments or benefits received or to be received by you pursuant to the RSUs would constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, no such payment or benefit will be provided under the RSUs until the earliest of (A) the date which is six (6) months after your “separation from service” for any reason, other than death or “disability” (as such terms are used in Section 409A(a)(2) of the Code), (B) the date of your death or “disability” (as such term is used in Section 409A(a)(2)(C) of the Code) or (C) the effective date of a “change in the ownership or effective control” of the Corporation (as such term is used in Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) of the Code). Each payment under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. The RSUs are intended to comply with or be exempt from the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code and shall be limited, construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent; provided, that the Corporation does not guarantee you any particular tax treatment of the RSUs. In addition, if any provision of the RSUs would cause you to incur any penalty tax or interest under Section 409A of the Code or any regulations or Treasury guidance promulgated thereunder, the Corporation may reform such provision to maintain to the maximum extent practicable the original intent of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. In no event whatsoever shall the Corporation be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on you by Section 409A of the Code or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

(l)                 Copies of the Corporation’s Annual Report to Stockholders for its latest fiscal year and the Corporation’s latest quarterly report are available, without charge, at the Corporation’s business office.

(n)               In the event that any provision in this Agreement will be held invalid or unenforceable, such provision will be severable from, and such invalidity or unenforceability will not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

 

(o)               You acknowledge that a waiver by the Corporation of breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this agreement, or of any subsequent breach of this Agreement.

 

15.            Appendix. The RSUs and the shares of Common Stock acquired under the 2022 Plan shall be subject to any special terms and conditions for your country set forth in the Appendix to this Agreement. Moreover, if you relocate to one of the countries included in the Appendix, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to you, to the extent that the Corporation determines that application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons. The Appendix constitutes part of this Agreement.

 

16.            Imposition of Other Requirements. The Corporation reserves the right to impose other requirements on the RSUs and on any shares of Common Stock acquired upon vesting of the RSUs, to the extent that the Committee determines it is necessary for legal or administrative reasons, and to require you to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

June 1, 2022

 

Dear Amnon,

 

I am very excited about the opportunity that lies ahead for Mobileye and Intel. As we discussed, upon completion of Mobileye’s IPO, you will become the CEO of the new public company (Mobileye), reporting to me. Below outlines the parameters of how I am thinking about your going forward compensation.

 

Typical compensation for a public company CEO includes both cash and annual equity grants, where annual equity grants represent a substantial portion of the arrangement. Our intention is to follow a similar model for your compensation. Based on our review of the external benchmarks of comparable companies, we determined that $15,000,000 in target total compensation is a very strong compensation arrangement for you and consistent with other CEOs for comparable companies.

 

In addition to the annual target compensation, we think it is important to give you the opportunity to reinvest in Mobileye. If you invest in Mobileye with your own capital up to $10,000,000, we are prepared to match it 3:1 through a Mobileye equity grant that will vest 50% in year four and 50% in year five.

 

Below is a summary of the components of your compensation that we’ve discussed with you:

 

§Target Total Compensation: $15,000,000

 

– Annual base salary: $800,000 

– Annual equity grant: $14,200,000

 

§Matching equity grant: 3:1 matching on your Mobileye investment up to $10,000,000

 

The specific terms of the buy-in will need to be established

 

Page 1 of 2

 

 

We will continue to prepare the specific terms of your compensation in the coming weeks, but this letter outlines the key components of your going forward compensation, which is subject to the completion of the IPO. Our expectation is that any governance-related items would comply with typical market practice and that future compensation actions will be determined by the Mobileye Board or its designated compensation committee.

 

Please reach out to Christy or me with any questions or concerns here.

 

Sincerely,

 

/s/ Pat Gelsinger

Chief Executive Officer

(a)               Notify the Lender promptly after the discovery by any officer of the Borrower of the occurrence of (i) any Event of Default, or any event which with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default; (ii) any material litigation or proceedings that are instituted against the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or any of their respective assets; and (iii) any other development in the business or affairs of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries which could have a Material Adverse Effect; in each case describing the nature thereof and the action the Borrower proposes to take with respect thereto;

 

(b)               Pay and discharge, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay and discharge, all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges upon it, its income and its properties prior to the date on which penalties are attached thereto, unless and to the extent only that such taxes, assessments and governmental charges shall be contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings by the Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, and that the Borrower or such Subsidiary shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves therefor;

 

4

 

(c)               Maintain its existence, and qualify and remain qualified to do business in each material jurisdiction in which the character of the properties owned or leased by it therein or in which the transaction of its business makes such qualification necessary and cause each of its material Subsidiaries so to do;

 

(d)               Comply with the requirements of all agreements, contracts, laws and all orders, writs, injunctions and decrees applicable to it or to its business or property, except if the failure to comply therewith could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect;

 

(e)               Not directly or indirectly convey, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or a substantial part of its business assets to any person or entity other than a Subsidiary, without the express written consent of the Lender; and

 

(f)                Not directly or indirectly make any distribution or similar payment to the direct or indirect holders of its equity interests (i) if at the time proposed for such payment an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (or would result therefrom); or (ii) if at the time proposed for such payment any accrued and unpaid interest or other amounts due and payable (including any outstanding principal that is then due and payable) remain outstanding under this Agreement, without the express written consent of the Lender.

Section 8.01        Events of Default. If one or more of the following events (each, an “Event of Default”) shall occur:

 

(a)               The Borrower fails to pay any amount of principal under this Agreement when due and payable;

 

(b)               The Borrower fails to pay any amount of interest or any other amount required to be paid under this Agreement when due and payable and such default shall have continued unremedied for a period of five Business Days;

(d)               Any representation or warranty made by the Borrower herein or any statement or representation made in any certificate, report or opinion delivered in connection herewith shall prove to have been incorrect or misleading in any material respect when made;

 

(e)               Any obligation of the Borrower (other than its obligations hereunder) for the payment of borrowed money in excess of US $10,000,000 is not paid when due or becomes or is declared to be due and payable prior to the expressed maturity thereof, or there shall have occurred an event which, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would cause any such obligation to become, or allow any such obligation to be declared to be, due and payable;

 

5

 

(f)                The Borrower or any material Subsidiary makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, files a petition in bankruptcy, is adjudicated insolvent or bankrupt, petitions or applies to any tribunal for any receiver of or any trustee for the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any substantial part of its property, commences any proceeding relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary under any reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, dissolution or liquidation law or statute of any jurisdiction, whether now or hereafter in effect, or there is commenced against the Borrower or any Subsidiary any such proceeding which remains undismissed for a period of 30 days, or the Borrower or any Subsidiary by any act indicates its consent to, approval of or acquiescence in any such proceeding or the appointment of any receiver of or any trustee for the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any substantial part of its property, or suffers any such receivership or trusteeship to continue undischarged for a period of 60 days;

 

(g)               there is entered against the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower a final judgment or order for the payment of money in an aggregate amount exceeding $100,000,000 and such judgment or order shall not have been satisfied, vacated, discharged or stayed or bonded pending an appeal for a period of 60 consecutive days; or

 

(h)               this Agreement, at any time after its execution and delivery and for any reason other than as expressly permitted hereunder or the satisfaction in full of all the obligations hereunder, ceases to be in full force and effect; or the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower contests in writing the validity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement; or the Borrower denies in writing that it has any or further liability or obligation under this Agreement (other than as a result of repayment in full of the obligations hereunder), or purports in writing to revoke or rescind this Agreement (other than in accordance with its terms);

 

then upon the happening of any of the foregoing Events of Default which shall be continuing, the Loan shall become and be immediately due and payable upon written declaration to that effect delivered by the Lender to the Borrower; provided that upon the happening of any event specified in subsection (f) of this Section 8.01, the Loan shall be immediately due and payable without declaration or other notice to the Borrower. The Borrower expressly waives any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind.

 

No failure or delay on the part of Lender to exercise any right, power or privilege under this Agreement and no course of dealing between the Lender and the Borrower shall impair such right, power or privilege or operate as a waiver of any default or an acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies expressly provided in this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies that the Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the right of the Lender to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

Exhibit 10.19

GRAPHIC

Execution Copy AGREEMENT BETWEEN INTEL CORPORATION AND INTEL SUBSIDIARIES This agreement ("Agreement"), dated March 4, 2014 ("Agreement Date"), is made by Intel Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Intel") and each of the entities as listed on the signature pages of this Agreement and each entity that subsequently becomes a party to this Agreement pursuant to paragraph 6.8 (each, a "Subsidiary"). The "Effective Date" of this Agreement for each entity that is at least 50% owned or controlled (directly or indirectly) by Intel as of the Agreement Date, is the Agreement Date. For an entity that becomes at least 50% owned or controlled (directly or indirectly) by Intel after the Agreement Date, the "Effective Date" will have the meaning set forth in Section 6.8. BACKGROUND • Intel has certain rights to sublicense or extend rights under various patents and patent applications owned or controlled by entities that (i) are less than 50% owned or controlled (directly or indirectly) by Intel ("Third Parties") and (ii) have entered into a written agreement with Intel granting Intel rights under their patents before the Effective Date (the "Sublicensable Third-Party Patents"); • Intel has entered into written agreements with Third Parties granting rights under such Third Parties' patents and patent applications to certain subsidiaries of Intel (the "Third-Party Patent Agreements"); • Intel may obtain certain rights after the Effective Date to sublicense or extend rights under additional patents and patent applications owned or controlled by Third Parties that have entered into a written agreement with Intel granting Intel rights under such Third Parties' patents and patent applications (the "Future Sublicensable Third-Party Patents"); • Intel may after the Effective Date enter into written agreements with Third Parties granting rights under such Third Parties' patents and patent applications to certain subsidiaries of Intel (the "Future Third-Party Patent Agreements"); • Intel desires, to the fullest extent it has the right to do so, to grant or extend to Subsidiary royalty-free, nonexclusive, nontransferable, worldwide licenses, sublicenses or rights under all Sublicensable Third-Party Patents and Future Sublicensable Third-Party Patents; • In consideration of such licenses, sublicenses or other rights, Subsidiary is willing to comply with all of Intel's undertakings and obligations required for Subsidiary to receive and maintain licenses, sublicenses or other rights under the applicable Third-Party Patent Agreements and Future Third-Party Patent Agreements; • Subsidiary may own or control patents and patent applications now or in the future during the term of this Agreement while that Subsidiary is at least 50% owned or controlled

GRAPHIC

(directly or indirectly) by Intel (for each Subsidiary, the "Subsidiary-Controlled Patents"); and • Subsidiary desires, to the fullest extent it has the right to do so, to grant to Intel royalty- free, nonexclusive, nontransferable, worldwide licenses under all of its Subsidiary- Controlled Patents, with the right to grant sublicenses to other Subsidiaries and to Third Parties to the extent required for Intel to comply with its obligations under the Third-Party Patent Agreements and the Future Third-Party Patent Agreements. Therefore, the parties agree as follows: 1. LICENSES TO SUBLICENSABLE THIRD-PARTY PATENTS � 1.1 � Intel hereby grants or extends, to the fullest extent Intel has the right to do so, to Subsidiary a royalty-free, nonexclusive, nontransferable, worldwide license, sublicense or other rights under each Sublicensable Third-Party Patent, effective retroactively during the period starting on the patent's Rights Vesting Date and ending on the Effective Date. Subsidiary hereby agrees, effective retroactively during that period, to comply with all Intel's undertakings and obligations relating to its Subsidiaries under the Third-Party Patent Agreements required for Subsidiary to receive and maintain such licenses, sublicenses and other rights. For purposes of this Section 1, "Rights Vesting Date" means, as to Subsidiary and each Sublicensable Third- Party Patent licensed hereunder, the date Intel first had the right to grant sublicenses or other rights under the Sublicensable Third-Party Patent to that Subsidiary in accordance with this Agreement. � 1.2 � Intel hereby grants or extends, to the fullest extent Intel has the right to do so, to Subsidiary a royalty-free, nonexclusive, nontransferable, worldwide license, sublicense or other rights under each Sublicensable Third-Party Patent, effective as of the Effective Date and continuing for as long as Intel has the right to grant sublicenses or other rights under the Sublicensable Third-Party Patent in accordance with this Agreement. Subsidiary hereby agrees to comply, from and after the Effective Date, with all Intel's undertakings and obligations relating to its Subsidiaries under the Third-Party Patent Agreements required for Subsidiary to receive and maintain such licenses, sublicenses and other rights. 2. LICENSES TO FUTURE SUBLICENSABLE THIRD-PARTY PATENTS � 2.1 � Unless Intel specifically provides notice to a Subsidiary at any time in accordance with Section 3, subject to the terms of this Agreement, Intel hereby grants or extends to Subsidiary, effective as of the earliest date that Intel has the right to do so, royalty-free, nonexclusive, nontransferable, worldwide licenses, sublicenses or other rights under all Future Sublicensable Third-Party Patents to the fullest extent that Intel has the right to do so. � 2.2 � Subsidiary hereby agrees to comply with all Intel's undertakings and obligations relating to its Subsidiaries under the Future Third-Party Patent Agreements required for Subsidiary to receive and maintain such licenses, sublicenses and other rights. 2

GRAPHIC

3. REVOCATION At any time, including at any time before or after Intel receives the right to sublicense or extend rights under any Sublicensable Third-Party Patent or Future Sublicensable Third-Party Patent, Intel may notify Subsidiary in writing: (i) that one or more Sublicensable Third-Party Patents or Future Sublicensable Third-Party Patents, or specific claims thereof, are excluded from the licenses, sublicenses or other rights granted or extended to that Subsidiary in paragraphs 1.1, 1.2 or 2.1; or (ii) that Intel revokes (effective as of the date specified by Intel), in whole or in part, any licenses, sublicenses or other rights previously granted or extended to Subsidiary pursuant to paragraphs 1.1, 1.2 or 2.1 with respect to one or more Sublicensable Third-Party Patents or Future Sublicensable Third-Party Patents or specific claims thereof. 4. LICENSES TO SUBSIDIARY-CONTROLLED PATENTS � 4.1 � Subsidiary hereby grants or extends, to the fullest extent Subsidiary has the right to do so, to Intel a royalty-free, nonexclusive, nontransferable, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide license under each Subsidiary-Controlled Patent, with the right to grant the sublicenses set forth in this Section 4, effective retroactively during the period starting on the patent's Rights Vesting Date and ending on the Effective Date. For purposes of this Section 4, "Rights Vesting Date" means, as to Subsidiary and each of its Subsidiary-Controlled Patents, the date on which the Subsidiary first had the right to grant the rights set forth herein under the Subsidiary-Controlled Patent to Intel in accordance with this Agreement. � 4.2 � Subsidiary hereby grants or extends, to the fullest extent Subsidiary has the right to do so, to Intel a royalty-free, nonexclusive, nontransferable, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide license under each Subsidiary-Controlled Patent, with the right to grant the sublicenses set forth in this Section 4, effective as of the Effective Date and continuing for the life of the Subsidiary- Controlled Patent. � 4.3 � The licenses granted by Subsidiary in paragraphs 4.1 and 4.2 include the right for Intel to grant or extend royalty-free, nonexclusive, nontransferable sublicenses or rights to the fullest extent that it has the right to do so to (i) Third Parties to the fullest extent required for Intel to comply with its obligations under the Third-Party Patent Agreements and Future Third-Party Patent Agreements; provided, that the scope of those sublicenses will be limited by and subject to the applicable terms of the Third-Party Patent Agreements and Future Third-Party Patent Agreements; and (ii) other Subsidiaries and any other entities that are at least 50% owned or controlled (directly or indirectly) by Intel to use, make, have made, sell, offer to sell, import and otherwise dispose of products and services used, manufactured, licensed or sold by such other Subsidiaries, entities or Intel.

GRAPHIC

� 4.4 � Unless a later date or different term is specified by Intel, any sublicense granted or extended by Intel to a Third Party under a Third-Party Patent Agreement or Future Third-Party Patent Agreement under a Subsidiary-Controlled Patent will be automatically effective on the earliest date when both (a) the Third-Party Patent Agreement or Future Third-Party Patent Agreement first became effective, whether before or after the date of this Agreement, and (b) the Subsidiary first became at least 50% owned or controlled (directly or indirectly) by Intel. � 4.5 � Intel hereby grants or extends, to the fullest extent Intel has the right to do so, a royalty- free, nonexclusive, nontransferable, worldwide sublicense under each Subsidiary-Controlled Patent to Subsidiaries who do not own or control such Subsidiary-Controlled Patent, effective retroactively during the period starting on the patent's Rights Vesting Date and ending on the Effective Date. � 4.6 � Intel hereby grants or extends, to the fullest extent Intel has the right to do so, a royalty- free, nonexclusive, nontransferable, worldwide sublicense under each Subsidiary-Controlled Patent to Subsidiaries who do not own or control such Subsidiary-Controlled Patent, effective as of the Effective Date and continuing as long as Intel has the right to grant sublicenses or other rights under the Subsidiary-Controlled Patent and the Subsidiary is at least 50% owned or controlled (directly or indirectly) by Intel. � 4.7 � The license to each Subsidiary-Controlled Patent granted by Subsidiary to Intel under paragraphs 4.1 and 4.2 will continue for the life of the Subsidiary-Controlled Patent even if the Subsidiary ceases to be at least 50% owned or controlled (directly or indirectly) by Intel and even if Intel exercises any of its rights under Section 3. However, the licenses granted by Subsidiary to Intel under paragraphs 4.1 and 4.2 will not apply to any patents or patent applications acquired or filed by Subsidiary after such Subsidiary ceases to be at least 50% owned or controlled (directly or indirectly) by Intel unless otherwise agreed by that Subsidiary and Intel or required under any Third-Party Patent Agreement or Future Third-Party Patent Agreement. 5. TERM AND TERMINATION � 5.1 � This Agreement will continue in effect until the expiration of the last to expire of the Sublicensable Third-Party Patents, Future Sublicensable Third-Party Patents, Subsidiary- Controlled Patents, and other patent rights licensed or sublicensed hereunder or under any Third-Party Patent Agreement or Future Third-Party Patent Agreement, unless sooner terminated as provided in paragraph 5.2. � 5.2 � Intel may terminate this Agreement as it pertains to one or more Subsidiaries at any time by giving notice of termination to the applicable Subsidiary. Upon termination of this Agreement as it pertains to one or more Subsidiaries, the licenses, sublicenses or other rights granted or extended to those Subsidiaries under this Agreement will terminate. Section 4 will survive any termination of this Agreement, except that Intel may terminate any sublicense it has granted under any or all Subsidiary-Controlled Patents or any claims thereof at any time. � 5.3 � The licenses, sublicenses or other rights granted or extended to a Subsidiary in paragraphs 1.1, 1.2 and 2.1 will automatically terminate as to each Sublicensable Third-Party 4

GRAPHIC

Patent and Future Sublicensable Third-Party Patent to the extent that Subsidiary is no longer entitled to receive such license, sublicense or rights pursuant to Intel's applicable Third-Party Patent Agreement or Future Third-Party Patent Agreement with the Third Party (e.g., if the Subsidiary ceases to be a "Subsidiary" as defined in the applicable agreement). 6. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 6.1 THE SUBLICENSABLE THIRD-PARTY PATENTS, FUTURE SUBLICENSABLE THIRD-PARTY PATENTS AND SUBSIDIARY-CONTROLLED PATENTS ARE LICENSED, SUBLICENSED OR EXTENDED "AS IS" AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. INTEL AND SUBSIDIARY DISCLAIM ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON- INFRINGEMENT. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement will be construed as: (a) a warranty or representation by a party as to the validity or scope of any class or type of patent, utility model or design patent; (b) a warranty or representation by a party that any manufacture, sale, lease, use, or other disposition of products covered by the Sublicensable Third-Party Patents, Future Sublicensable Third-Party Patents or Subsidiary-Controlled Patents will be free from infringement of patents, utility models or design patents; (c) an agreement by a party to bring or prosecute actions or suits for infringement against third parties, or conferring any right to bring or prosecute actions or suits for infringement against third parties; (d) conferring by implication, estoppel, or otherwise upon any party any license or other right under any class or type of patent, utility model, or design patent other than the licenses, sublicenses and rights expressly granted or extended pursuant to this Agreement; or (e) an agreement by Intel to enforce, maintain or defend any license with any third party for any Sublicensable Third-Party Patent or Future Sublicensable Third-Party Patent. � 6.2 � Subsidiary may not assign or transfer (by operation of law or otherwise) this Agreement or any of its rights, privileges or obligations granted or extended under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of Intel. � 6.3 � No modification, alteration, addition, or change in the terms of this Agreement will be binding on a party unless reduced to writing and duly executed by Intel and the Subsidiary to be bound. � 6.4 � If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, public policy or otherwise, such term or provision shall be excluded to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability regardless of the nature of the term or other provision and all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain

GRAPHIC

in full force and effect. On a determination that any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties must negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible, in a mutually acceptable manner, in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible. � 6.5 � This Agreement and matters connected to the performance thereof will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without respect to the choice-of-law provisions thereof. � 6.6 � This Agreement will not be construed to confer any right or benefit on any party other than the parties hereto and their permitted successors and assigns. � 6.7 � No waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be effective unless it is a signed writing by the waiving party, and no such waiver will constitute a waiver of any other provision(s) or of the same provision on another occasion. � 6.8 � Any entity that is at least 50% owned or controlled (directly or indirectly) by Intel may become a party to this Agreement by executing a New Subsidiary Agreement in substantially the form attached as Exhibit A. Upon execution of a New Subsidiary Agreement by that entity and Intel, that entity will be treated as a Subsidiary under this Agreement and will be bound by this Agreement; provided, that the "Effective Date" of this Agreement for such entity will be the later of the date that such entity (a) became at least 50% owned or controlled (directly or indirectly) by Intel and (b) executed a New Subsidiary Agreement in substantially the form attached as Exhibit A. The parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed on the date first written above. [Signature blocks attached in the following pages.] 6
