Alphawave Shareholders and Alphawave Exchangeable Shareholders should be aware that the transaction contemplated herein may have tax consequences and that such consequences, if any, are not described herein.

Additional information for U.S. investors in Alphawave

The Acquisition relates to the shares of a company incorporated in England and Wales and is proposed to be implemented by means of a scheme of arrangement under the laws of England and Wales. A transaction implemented by means of a scheme of arrangement is not subject to the tender offer rules or the proxy solicitation rules under the U.S. Exchange Act and other requirements of U.S. law.

Accordingly, the Acquisition is subject to the disclosure and procedural requirements applicable in the United Kingdom to schemes of arrangement which differ from the disclosure requirements of the United States' tender offer and proxy solicitation rules.

Financial information relating to Alphawave included in the Scheme Document has been or shall have been prepared in accordance with accounting standards applicable in the United Kingdom and may not be comparable to financial information of U.S. companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. U.S. GAAP differs in certain significant respects from accounting standards applicable in the United Kingdom.

The Acquisition may, in the circumstances provided for in the Scheme Document, instead be carried out by way of an Offer under the laws of England and Wales. If Bidco exercises its right to elect (subject to the consent of the Panel, where necessary, and the terms of the Co-operation Agreement) to implement the Acquisition by way of an Offer, such Offer will be made in compliance with all applicable U.S. laws and regulations, including any applicable exemptions under the U.S. Exchange Act and the U.S. Securities Act.

The receipt of consideration by a U.S. Holder for the transfer of its Alphawave Shares pursuant to the Scheme or its Alphawave Exchangeable Shares pursuant to the Exchangeable Securities Offer (as applicable) may have tax consequences in the United States. Each Alphawave Shareholder and Alphawave Exchangeable Shareholder is urged to consult their independent professional adviser immediately regarding the tax consequences of the Acquisition applicable to them, including under applicable U.S. state, federal and local, as well as overseas and other tax laws.

Alphawave is organised under the laws of England and Wales. Some or all of the officers and directors of Alphawave are residents of countries other than the United States. In addition, most of the assets of Alphawave are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for U.S. shareholders of Alphawave or Alphawave ExchangeCo to effect service of process within the United States upon Alphawave or their respective officers or directors or to enforce against them a judgment of a U.S. court predicated upon the federal or state securities laws of the United States. Further, it may be difficult to compel a non-U.S. company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a U.S. court's judgment.

The New Qualcomm Shares and the New Qualcomm Exchangeable Securities (including any Qualcomm Shares issuable in exchange for New Qualcomm Exchangeable Securities) have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act, or applicable state securities laws and will not be issued pursuant to a prospectus in any jurisdiction in Canada. The New Qualcomm Shares and the New Qualcomm Exchangeable Securities (including any Qualcomm Shares issuable in exchange for New Qualcomm Exchangeable Securities) will not be issued to Alphawave Shareholders or Alphawave Exchangeable Shareholders (as applicable) unless Qualcomm determines that they may be issued: (i) pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction that is not subject to, the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act as provided by Section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act or another available exemption; and (ii) on a private placement basis and without causing Qualcomm or any of its affiliates to become a "reporting issuer" for purposes of applicable Canadian provincial or territorial securities laws.

The New Qualcomm Shares and the New Qualcomm Exchangeable Securities (including any Qualcomm Shares issuable in exchange for New Qualcomm Exchangeable Securities) are expected to be issued in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act set forth in Section 3(a)(10) thereof on the basis of the approval of the Court, and similar exemptions from registration under applicable state securities laws. Section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act exempts the issuance of any securities issued in exchange for one or more bona fide outstanding securities from the general requirement of registration under the U.S. Securities Act, where the terms and conditions of the issuance and exchange of such securities have been approved by a court of competent jurisdiction that is expressly authorised by law to grant such approval, after a hearing upon the substantive and procedural fairness of the terms and conditions of such issuance and exchange at which all persons to whom it is proposed to issue the securities have the right to appear and receive timely and adequate notice thereof. The Court is authorised to conduct a hearing at which the substantive and procedural fairness of the terms and conditions of the Scheme will be considered. For the purposes of qualifying for the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act, Alphawave will advise the Court before the hearing that the Court's approval of the Scheme will constitute the basis for an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act, pursuant to Section 3(a)(10).

If, in the future, Bidco exercises its right to implement the Acquisition by way of an Offer or otherwise in a manner that is not exempt from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act, it or Qualcomm will file a registration statement with the SEC that will contain a prospectus with respect to the issuance of New Qualcomm Shares and the New Qualcomm Exchangeable Securities under the U.S. Securities Act. In this event, Alphawave Shareholders and Alphawave Exchangeable Shareholders are urged to read the Scheme Document and any other relevant documents (as well as any amendments or supplements to those documents) because they would contain important information, and such documents would be available free of charge at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov or by directing a response to Bidco's and Qualcomm's contact for enquiries identified above. In addition, if Bidco exercises its right to implement the Acquisition by way of an Offer, which is to be made into the United States, such Offer will be made in compliance with the applicable laws of the United States and regulations, including Section 14(e) and Regulation 14E of the U.S. Exchange Act.

The New Qualcomm Shares and any Qualcomm Shares issuable in exchange for the New Series A Qualcomm Exchangeable Securities issued to persons other than "affiliates" (defined as certain control persons, within the meaning of Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act) of Qualcomm will be freely transferable under the laws of the United States after the Acquisition. Persons (whether or not U.S. Persons) who are or will be "affiliates" of Qualcomm within 90 days prior to the Effective Date, or of the Enlarged Group at any time after the Effective Date, will be subject to certain transfer restrictions relating to the New Qualcomm Shares and any Qualcomm Shares issuable in exchange for the New Series A Qualcomm Exchangeable Securities under applicable U.S. laws and regulations.

In the event that the Acquisition is implemented by way of an Offer, in accordance with normal UK practice and pursuant to Rule 14e-5(b) of the U.S. Exchange Act, Qualcomm or Bidco and certain of its or their affiliated companies or nominees, or its or their brokers (acting as agents), may from time to time make certain purchases of, or arrangements to purchase, Alphawave Shares outside the United States, other than pursuant to the Acquisition, until the date on which the Acquisition becomes Effective, lapses or is otherwise withdrawn. If such purchases or arrangements to purchases were to be made, they would occur either in the open market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices and would comply with applicable law, including United Kingdom laws and the U.S. Exchange Act. Any information about such purchases will be disclosed as required in the United Kingdom, will be reported to a Regulatory Information Service and will be available on the London Stock Exchange website, www.londonstockexchange.com. To the extent that such information is required to be publicly disclosed in the United Kingdom in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements, this information will, as applicable, also be publicly disclosed in the United States.

THE SCHEME, THE NEW QUALCOMM SHARES AND THE NEW QUALCOMM EXCHANGEABLE SECURITIES TO BE ISSUED IN CONNECTION THEREWITH HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SEC OR ANY OTHER SECURITIES REGULATORY AUTHORITY OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES, NOR HAS THE SEC OR ANY SECURITIES REGULATORY AUTHORITY OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES PASSED UPON THE FAIRNESS OR THE MERITS OF THIS TRANSACTION OR UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS ANNOUNCEMENT OR THE SCHEME DOCUMENT. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE.

Cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements

This Announcement (including information incorporated by reference in this Announcement), oral statements made regarding the Acquisition, and other information published by Alphawave, Qualcomm or Bidco, any other member of the Wider Alphawave Group or any other member of the Wider Qualcomm Group, contain statements which are, or may be deemed to be, "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the U.S. Securities Act and Section 21E of the U.S. Exchange Act. Such forward-looking statements are prospective in nature and are not based on historical facts, but rather on current expectations and on numerous assumptions regarding the business strategies and the environment in which Qualcomm, Bidco and Alphawave shall operate in the future and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by those statements.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Announcement relate to the expected timing and scope of the Acquisition and other statements other than historical facts. In some cases, these forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms "believes", "estimates", "will look to", "would look to", "plans", "prepares", "anticipates", "expects", "is expected to", "is subject to", "budget", "scheduled", "forecasts", "synergy", "strategy", "goal", "cost-saving", "projects", "intends", "may", "will", "shall" or "should" or their negatives or other variations or comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements may include statements relating to the following: (i) future capital expenditures, expenses, revenues, earnings, synergies, economic performance, indebtedness, financial condition, dividend policy, losses and future prospects; (ii) business and management strategies and the expansion and growth of Qualcomm's and Bidco's, Alphawave's, any member of the Qualcomm Group's or any member of the Alphawave Group's operations and potential synergies resulting from the Acquisition; and (iii) the effects of global economic conditions and governmental regulation on Qualcomm's and Bidco's, Alphawave's, any other member of the Qualcomm Group's or any other member of the Alphawave Group's business.

Although Qualcomm, Bidco and Alphawave believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, none of Qualcomm, Bidco or Alphawave (nor any of their respective associates, directors, officers or advisers) can give any assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will occur in the future. There are a number of factors that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

These factors include, but are not limited to: (i) uncertainties as to the timing to complete the Acquisition; (ii) the ability to complete the Acquisition; (iii) the effect of the Scheme Document and the Acquisition on Alphawave's business relationships and employees; (iv) the ability to satisfy or waive the Conditions on the proposed terms and schedule, including the risk that regulatory approvals are not obtained or are obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated by the parties; (v) the effects of disruption to Alphawave's business; (vi) the ability to achieve the potential benefits of the Acquisition within the expected timeline or at all; (vii) unknown liabilities; (viii) a deterioration in Qualcomm's or Bidco's future results of operations, financial condition, cash flows or business prospects; (ix) changes in the global, political, economic, business and competitive environments and in market and regulatory forces; (x) changes in future exchange and interest rates; (xi) changes in tax rates; (xii) changes in laws or in supervisory expectations or requirements; and (xiii) other risks set forth in Qualcomm's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended 30 March 2025 and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Current Reports on Form 8-K (available free of charge at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov) and in Alphawave's interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2024 and subsequent annual report for the fiscal year ended 31 December 2024 and interim results. Other unknown or unpredictable factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected, estimated or projected in the forward-looking statements. If any one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialises or if any one or more of the assumptions proves incorrect, actual results may differ materially from those expected, estimated or projected. Such forward-looking statements should therefore be construed in light of such factors.

None of Alphawave, Qualcomm or Bidco, nor any of their respective associates or directors, officers or advisers, provides any representation, assurance or guarantee that the occurrence of the events expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements in this Announcement will actually occur. Given these risks and uncertainties, potential investors should not place any reliance on forward-looking statements.

Specifically, statements of estimated cost savings and synergies relate to future actions and circumstances which, by their nature, involve risks, uncertainties and contingencies. As a result, the cost savings and synergies referred to may not be achieved, may be achieved later or sooner than estimated, or those achieved could be materially different from those estimated. Due to the scale of the Alphawave Group, there may be additional changes to the Alphawave Group's operations. As a result, and given the fact that the changes relate to the future, the resulting cost synergies may be materially greater or less than those estimated.

The forward-looking statements speak only at the date of this Announcement. All subsequent oral or written forward-looking statements attributable to Qualcomm, Bidco, Alphawave, any other member of the Qualcomm Group or the Alphawave Group, or any of their respective associates, directors, officers, employees or advisers, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statement above.

Alphawave, Qualcomm and Bidco (and their respective associates, directors, officers or advisers) expressly disclaim any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, other than as required by law, stock exchange rules or by the rules of any competent regulatory authority, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Disclosure requirements of the Code

Under Rule 8.3(a) of the Code, any person who is interested in 1 per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of a target company or of any securities exchange bidder (being any bidder other than a bidder in respect of which it has been announced that its offer is, or is likely to be, solely in cash) must make an Opening Position Disclosure following the commencement of the offer period and, if later, following the announcement in which any securities exchange bidder is first identified. An Opening Position Disclosure must contain details of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of: (i) the target company; and (ii) any securities exchange bidder(s). An Opening Position Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(a) applies must be made by no later than 3:30 p.m. on the 10th Business Day following the commencement of the offer period and, if appropriate, by no later than 3:30 p.m. on the 10th Business Day following the announcement in which any securities exchange bidder is first identified. Relevant persons who deal in the relevant securities of the target company or of a securities exchange bidder prior to the deadline for making an Opening Position Disclosure must instead make a Dealing Disclosure.

Under Rule 8.3(b) of the Code, any person who is, or becomes, interested in 1 per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of the target company or of any securities exchange bidder must make a Dealing Disclosure if the person deals in any relevant securities of the target company or of any securities exchange bidder. A Dealing Disclosure must contain details of the dealing concerned and of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of: (i) the target company; and (ii) any securities exchange bidder(s), save to the extent that these details have previously been disclosed under Rule 8. A Dealing Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(b) applies must be made by no later than 3:30 p.m. on the Business Day following the date of the relevant dealing.

If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire or control an interest in relevant securities of a target company or a securities exchange bidder, they shall be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.

Opening Position Disclosures must also be made by the target company and by any bidder and Dealing Disclosures must also be made by the target company, by any bidder and by any persons acting in concert with any of them (see Rules 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4).

Details of the target and bidder companies in respect of whose relevant securities Opening Position Disclosures and Dealing Disclosures must be made can be found in the Disclosure Table on the Panel's website at http://www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk/, including details of the number of relevant securities in issue, when the offer period commenced and when any bidder was first identified.
