SCHEDULE
TO
This Amendment No. 1 amends and supplements
the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed by Tigo Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Tigo” or the “Company”),
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 12, 2024 (as so amended, this “Schedule TO”).
This Schedule TO relates to an offer (the
“Offer”) by the Company to eligible employees and directors to exchange certain outstanding options to purchase shares of
our Common Stock (“Common Stock”) for new options to purchase a number of shares of our Common Stock (“Replacement
Options”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Exchange Certain Outstanding Options to Purchase
Common Stock for a Number of Replacement Options, dated November 12, 2024 (the “Offer to Exchange”), attached hereto as Exhibit
(a)(1)(i) and incorporated herein by reference.
Only Eligible Options may be exchanged in
the Option Exchange. For these purposes, “Eligible Options” are those options that (i) were granted under the Tigo Energy,
Inc. 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”), (ii) have an exercise price greater than $10.64 per share
and (iii) are held by an employee or director of the Company or its subsidiaries as of the grant date of the Replacement Options.
You
are eligible to participate in the Offer only if you (i) are an employee or director of the Company or any of its subsidiaries on the
date the Offer commences and remain an employee or director, as applicable, through the grant date of the Replacement Options, (ii) are
resident in the United States or Italy and (iii) hold at least one Eligible Option as of the Offer Expiration Date.
The
Offer commenced on November 12, 2024 and is currently scheduled to expire at 11:59 P.M. Eastern Time on December 10, 2024 (as may be
extended, the “Offer Expiration Date”).
This Amendment No. 1 is made to amend and supplement
the Schedule TO and the Offer to Exchange. In connection with the filing of this Amendment No. 1, the Company sent an email to holders
of Eligible Options notifying them of the filing of this Amendment No. 1, which is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(1)(viii).
Except as otherwise set forth in this Amendment No. 1, the information
set forth in the Schedule TO and the Offer to Exchange remains unchanged and is incorporated herein by reference to the extent relevant
to the items in this Amendment No. 1. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule
TO. You should read this Amendment No. 1 together with the Schedule TO and the Offer to Exchange.
Amendments to Offer to Exchange
The Offer to Exchange and the corresponding
Items of the Schedule TO into which such information is incorporated by reference are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
Offer to Exchange – Summary Term Sheet Overview; Offer to Exchange – Summary Term Sheet
and Questions and Answers; Offer to Exchange – The Offers
As further described in the Offer to Exchange,
the Company will distribute by email to you at your Company email (or if you are a director, at the email we have on file for you) the
exact exchange ratios to be used in the Offer with respect to each of your Eligible Options in a personalized notification form. The
Company has determined that such notification form will be delivered by the Company no later than 5:00 P.M. Eastern Time on the Offer
Expiration Date. The Offer to Exchange previously contemplated the delivery of such notification forms no later than 8:00 P.M. Eastern
Time. Therefore, the references to “(and no later than 8:00 P.M.) Eastern Time” in the Summary Term Sheet and on pages 1,
2, 4, 12, 13 and 20 of the Offer to Exchange are hereby amended to be references to “(and no later than 5:00 P.M.) Eastern Time.”
Offer to Exchange - Summary Term Sheet
and Questions and Answers — 3. How many Replacement Options will I receive for the Eligible Options that I exchange?
Question 3 on pages 2 -3 of the Offer to Exchange is hereby amended
and restated as follows:
3. How many Replacement Options will I receive
for the Eligible Options that I exchange?
The exchange ratio applicable to
each of your Eligible Options and the number of Replacement Options that may be granted in exchange for each of your Eligible Options
will be set forth in a personalized notification form sent to you at your Company email address (or if you are a director, at the email
address we have on file for you) after 3:00 P.M. (and no later than 5:00 P.M.) Eastern Time, on the Offer Expiration Date. The exchange
ratios will be calculated on an approximate “value-for-value” basis, meaning that the exchange ratios will be determined
in a manner intended to result in the grant of Replacement Options with an aggregate fair value that is approximately the same as the
aggregate fair value of the Eligible Options they replace, calculated as of the Offer Expiration Date, which will be the time that we
set the exchange ratios.
The value of the Eligible Options
was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The value of the Replacement Options will be calculated using the Hull-White
I Lattice Model (the “Lattice Model”) as of the Replacement Option Grant Date. This valuation model calculates the theoretical
present value of a stock option using variables such as stock price, exercise price, volatility, and expected exercise behavior. Because
underwater stock options will be less valuable than Replacement Options, you will need to exchange more than one Eligible Option to receive
one Replacement Option.
Because options with different exercise
prices and expiration dates have different Lattice Model values, different grants may have different exchange ratios. The exchange ratios
will show you how many Eligible Options you need to exchange to get one Replacement Option.
The exchange ratio for each Eligible
Option cannot be calculated as of the date of this Offer because the ratios will be based in part on the future value of our common stock
during and at the end of the Offer. The exchange ratios are structured so that in no event would the number of Replacement Options received
by you exceed the number of shares underlying the Eligible Options exchanged for the Replacement Options.
After 3:00 P.M. (and no later than
5:00 P.M.) Eastern Time, on the Offer Expiration Date (as defined below), we will distribute to you at your Company email (or if you
are a director, at the email we have on file for you) the exact exchange ratios to be used in the Offer with respect to each of your
Eligible Options.
If your total exchanged options
would result in less than one Replacement Option, we will round up your Replacement Options so that you get a minimum of one Replacement
Option. See Section 1 of the Offer to Exchange entitled “Eligibility; Number of Options; Offer Expiration Date” and Section
8 of the Offer to Exchange entitled “Source and Amount of Consideration; Terms of Replacement Options” below for additional
information.
For illustrative purposes only,
below is a table setting forth hypothetical exchange ratios that would be used in the Offer assuming various closing prices of
shares of our Common Stock on Nasdaq for the preceding 60 days. The high and low closing sales prices of shares of our Common Stock
as listed on Nasdaq during such period have ranged from $1.70 to $1.00, respectively. Because the exact exchange ratios will be
based in part on the future value of our common stock during and at the end of the Offer, the exact exchange ratios may
vary from the ratios presented in the table below. For example, if you hold an Eligible Option to purchase 1,000 shares at an
exercise price of $10.65 per share and the closing price of our Common Stock on Nasdaq on the Offer Expiration Date is $1.12, the
exchange ratio would be 28.47%, which means you would receive 0.2847 Replacement Options for every one share underlying an Eligible
Option; accordingly, your 1,000 Eligible Options would be exchanged for 284 Replacement Options (i.e., 1,000 x 28.47%, rounded down
to the nearest whole number.)

FORM OF EMAIL REGARDING AMENDMENTS TO THE OFFER
From: Bill Roeschlein, Chief Financial Officer
To: Eligible Tigo Participants
Subject: Tigo Energy, Inc. Offer to Exchange Certain Outstanding Options
for New Options – Amendment to Terms of the Offer
Date: November 22, 2024
As previously communicated to you on November
12, 2024, Tigo Energy, Inc. (“Tigo,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) announced
an offer (the “Offer”) by the Company to eligible employees and directors to exchange certain outstanding options to purchase
shares of our Common Stock (“Common Stock”) for new options to purchase a number of shares of our Common Stock (“Replacement
Options”).
We are writing to inform you that we have amended
and supplemented the Offer to Exchange Certain Outstanding Options to Purchase Common Stock for a Number of Replacement Options, dated
November 12, 2024 (as so amended, the “Offer to Exchange”), by filing Amendment No. 1 to our Tender Offer Statement on Schedule
TO (as so amended, the “Schedule TO”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which you
may access on our website at https://investors.tigoenergy.com/financials-filings/sec-filings or through the SEC website at www.sec.gov.
We recommend that you review the materials that we have filed with the SEC before making a decision on whether or not to surrender your
eligible stock options for exchange.
The terms of the Offer are described in detail
in the Schedule TO and the related exhibits, including the Offer to Exchange (the “Offer to Exchange” and, such exhibits collectively,
the “Offering Documents”), that has been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which you may access on our
website at https://investors.tigoenergy.com/financials-filings/sec-filings or through the SEC website at www.sec.gov. These materials
will help you to understand the terms and conditions of the Offer and the related risks.
The Offer currently is scheduled to expire on
December 10, 2024, at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time (as such date may be extended in accordance with the Offer to Exchange, the “Offer
Expiration Date”), and Replacement Options are scheduled to be granted effective promptly following the Offer Expiration Date, which
is currently expected to be on or about December 10, 2024 (the “Replacement Option Grant Date”). If your employment or service,
as applicable, is terminated prior to the expiration of the Offer, you will keep your eligible options and the eligible options will vest
and expire in accordance with their original terms. If your employment terminates after the expiration of the Offer but prior to the Replacement
Option Grant Date, the eligible options that you tendered for exchange will be cancelled but you will not receive Replacement Options.
Although our Board has approved the Offer, consummation
of the Offer is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions that are described in the Offer to Exchange. Neither we nor
our Board (or the compensation committee thereof) makes any recommendation as to whether you should participate in the Offer, nor have
we authorized any person to make such recommendation. Participation in the Offer is completely voluntary. Participating in the Offer involves
risks that are discussed in the Offer to Exchange. We recommend that you consult with your personal financial, tax and/or legal advisors
about whether to participate in the Offer.
This notice does not constitute an offer. The
full terms of the Offer are described in the Schedule TO and accompanying documents, which you may access on our website at https://investors.tigoenergy.com/financials-filings/sec-filings or
through the SEC website at www.sec.gov. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this email shall have the meanings set
forth in the Offering Documents.
