Item 3.02
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
 
As previously disclosed, on May 20, 2020, Inphi Corporation (the “Company”) entered into separate and privately-negotiated agreements with certain holders of the Company’s outstanding 1.125% Convertible Senior Notes due 2020 (the “2020 Notes”) and 0.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”). Pursuant to the transactions contemplated by these agreements (the “Initial Exchange Transactions”), the Company has agreed to exchange cash and shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), for approximately $63.5 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes and approximately $171.4 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes (together, the “Initial Exchanged Notes”).
 
On May 21, 2020, the Company entered into additional separate and privately-negotiated agreements with certain holders of the Company’s outstanding 2020 Notes and 2021 Notes. Pursuant to the transactions contemplated by these agreements (the “Additional Exchange Transactions,” and together with the Initial Exchange Transactions, the “Exchange Transactions”), the Company has agreed to exchange cash and shares of Common Stock for approximately $13.1 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes and approximately $51.7 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes (together, the “Additional Exchanged Notes,” and together with the Initial Exchanged Notes, the “Exchanged Notes”).
 
Upon the closing of the Exchange Transactions, the Company expects that it will pay an aggregate of approximately $302.9 million in cash, including for premium and interest, and issue approximately 3.2 million shares of Common Stock for the Exchanged Notes. The foregoing estimates are based on a price of $109.37 per share of Common Stock, which was the reference price used in the Exchange Transactions. The actual amounts of cash and shares of Common Stock to be issued are subject to adjustment during averaging periods beginning on May 21, 2020, in the case of the Initial Exchange Transactions, and May 22, 2020, in the case of the Additional Exchange Transactions, and could vary substantially depending on changes in the trading price of the Common Stock during the respective averaging periods.
 
The Company expects the closings of the Exchange Transactions to occur on June 1, 2020. Immediately following the closings of the Exchange Transactions, approximately $53.9 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes and approximately $64.4 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes will remain outstanding.
 
The Company will issue the shares of Common Stock to holders of the Exchanged Notes in the Exchange Transactions in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. 
 
This Current Report does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any security and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offering would be unlawful.
