Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in millions, except as noted)

(1) Basis of Presentation

On December 1, 2006, Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. (Freescale) was acquired by a consortium of private equity funds (the
Merger). At the close of the Merger, all assets, liabilities, rights and obligations were transferred and assigned to Freescale Holdings L.P., a Cayman Islands limited partnership (Parent) and Freescale Acquisition
Corporation (formerly Firestone Acquisition Corporation), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (Merger Sub). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger, Merger Sub was merged with and into Freescale, and as a result, Freescale
continues as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Parent. At the close of the Merger, Freescale became a subsidiary of Freescale Semiconductor Holdings V, Inc. (Holdings V), which is wholly owned
by Freescale Semiconductor Holdings IV, Ltd. (Holdings IV), which is wholly owned by Freescale Semiconductor Holdings III, Ltd. (Holdings III), which is wholly owned by Freescale Semiconductor
Holdings II, Ltd. (Holdings II), which is wholly owned by Freescale Semiconductor Holdings I, Ltd. (Holdings I), substantially all of which is wholly owned by Parent. All six of these companies were formed
for the purposes of facilitating the Merger and are collectively referred to as the Parent Companies. Subsequent to the closing of the Merger, we issued approximately 1,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.01, to our Parent in
exchange for a contribution of approximately $7.1 billion. Freescale refers to the operations of Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. and its subsidiaries. Freescale (which may be referred to as the Company, Freescale,
we, us or our) refers to the operations of Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. and its subsidiaries, as the context requires.

Our condensed consolidated financial statements include all majority-owned subsidiaries, a variable interest entity in which the Company is the primary beneficiary, and assets and liabilities of the Company. We
consolidate the financial results of Freescale Semiconductor EME&A SA (SBE). The SBE was established to provide sales and distribution services to our European external customers from one centralized location. Freescale and
Providence Holdings Hungary Kft (Freescale Hungary) each own a 50% interest in the SBE, with Freescale Hungary being the non-controlling interest holder. Freescale has concluded that we are the primary beneficiary of the SBE based on the
amount of funding we provide towards the SBEs operating activities and the alignment of our operating activities with that of the SBE. Included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 3, 2009 is approximately
$150 million and $15 million of assets and liabilities, respectively, attributed to the SBE. Our consolidation of the SBE did not have a material effect on non-controlling interest in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial
statements. The consolidation of the SBE has not altered the operational agreements or other commitments of the SBE.

The accompanying
condensed consolidated financial statements for Freescale as of July 3, 2009, December 31, 2008 and for the three and six months ended July 3, 2009 and June 27, 2008 are unaudited, with the December 31, 2008 amounts
included herein derived from the audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and
reclassifications) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of July 3, 2009 and for all periods presented. Certain amounts reported in previous periods have been reclassified to conform to the
current period presentation. We have evaluated all subsequent events through July 24, 2009, the date the financial statements were issued.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted. These condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our December 31, 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The results of operations for the three and six months ended July 3, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates. Our significant accounting policies and critical estimates are disclosed in our December 31, 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K. See Significant Accounting Policies and Critical Estimates within Item 2.
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for further information.

Statements of Operations Supplemental Information

Gain on Extinguishment of Long-Term Debt

During the second quarter of 2009, we recorded a $21 million pre-tax gain, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in connection with
the repurchase of $29 million of our Fixed Rate Notes and $17 million of our Toggle Notes. During the first quarter of 2009, we recorded a $2,264 million pre-tax gain in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in connection with the Debt
Exchange. Upon completion of the Debt Exchange, the carrying value of our outstanding long-term debt obligations on the Existing Notes declined by $2,853 million, including $24 million of accrued PIK Interest. This decline was partially offset
by the issuance of Incremental Term Loans with a carrying value of $540 million. The Incremental Term Loans were valued based upon the public trading prices of the Existing Notes exchanged immediately prior to the launch of the Debt Exchange. We
recorded $17 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the Incremental Term Loans.

During the second quarter of 2008, we recorded a
$10 million pre-tax gain, net in connection with the repurchase of $54 million of our Senior Subordinated Notes and $8 million of our Floating Rate Notes. During the first quarter of 2008, we recorded a $6 million pre-tax gain in connection with the
repurchase of $13 million of our Senior Subordinated Notes and $10 million of our Fixed Rate Notes. (Refer to Note 4 for definitions of capitalized terms and discussion.)

Cash paid for interest was $151 million and $241 million for the second quarter and first half of
2009, respectively, and $302 million and $366 million for the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively. In the first half of 2009, cash paid for interest included $39 million of interest paid in connection with the Debt Exchange.

Other, Net

During the second
quarter and first half of 2009, in accordance with SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended (SFAS No. 133) we recognized pre-tax losses of $4 million and $6 million,
respectively, in other, net related to the ineffective portion of our interest rate swaps that are no longer classified as a cash flow hedge. During the second quarter of 2009, we also recorded a $4 million pre-tax gain in other, net in connection
with a settlement of a Lehman Brothers Special Financing, Inc. (LBSF) swap arrangement with a notional amount of $400 million. (See further discussion of the LBSF swap arrangement in Note 4.) We also recorded a $3 million loss in the
second quarter of 2009 related to one of our strategic investments accounted for under the equity method as well as foreign currency impacts.

During the second quarter of 2008, in accordance with SFAS No. 133 we recognized a $14 million pre-tax gain in other, net related to the change in fair value of our interest rate swaps. During the first quarter of 2008, in accordance
with SFAS No. 133 we recognized a $25 million pre-tax loss in other, net related to the cumulative ineffective portion and subsequent change in fair value of our interest rate swaps that are no longer classified as a cash flow hedge. During the
first quarter of 2008, we also recorded a $12 million pre-tax gain in other, net as a result of the sale of all of the shares in one of our strategic investments accounted for under the cost method.

During the second quarter of 2009, in accordance with SFAS No. 88, Employers
Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits, we recorded a gain of $8 million to other comprehensive income related to curtailments, settlements and the actuarial impact associated
with our Japanese pension obligations. These items were driven by our announcement to discontinue manufacturing in our Sendai, Japan facility by 2011, along with other severance actions in Japan. Refer to Note 9 for further discussion.

Balance Sheets Supplemental Information

Short-Term Investments

In connection with the potential that continued macroeconomic weakness and financial market
illiquidity may cause adverse pricing adjustments in its short-term investment portfolio, Freescale moved substantially all of its short-term investments from a money market fund, which is a wholly owned subsidiary, to cash equivalent money market
accounts in the first half of 2009.

Inventory

Inventory consisted of the following:

Property, Plant and Equipment, Net

Depreciation expense was approximately $162 million and $327 million for the second quarter and first half of 2009, and $177 million and $351 million for
the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively. Accumulated depreciation was approximately $1,548 million and $1,367 million at July 3, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

During the second quarter of 2009, Freescale completed the exit from its wafer manufacturing facility in East Kilbride, Scotland. Accordingly, the
associated East Kilbride facility assets were classified as held for sale as of July 3, 2009 and are included in other current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

During the first half of 2008, Freescale sold assets located at the 300-millimeter wafer fabrication facility located in Crolles, France, where we ended
a strategic development and manufacturing relationship with two other semiconductor manufacturers in the fourth quarter of 2007.

On February 10, 2009, Freescale invited eligible holders of each of its (i) Senior Floating Rate Notes due 2014 (Floating Rate Notes), (ii) 9.125%/9.875% Senior PIK-Election Notes due 2014
(Toggle Notes), (iii) 8.875% Senior Fixed Rate Notes due 2014 (Fixed Rate Notes) and (iv) 10.125% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2016 (Senior Subordinated Notes) to participate as a lender in the issuance
of new senior secured incremental term loans under the existing Credit Facility (the Incremental Term Loans) in a transaction referred to as the Debt Exchange. The aggregate principal amount of Incremental Term Loans
available to eligible holders in the invitations was $1 billion, including the incremental term loans payable as compensation to certain of Freescales advisors. (The Floating Rate Notes, the Toggle Notes, the Fixed Rate Notes and the Senior
Subordinated Notes are collectively referred to as the Existing Notes and are discussed further in this Note.)

On
March 10, 2009, Freescales invitation to participate in the Debt Exchange expired for all Floating Rate Notes, Fixed Rate Notes and Senior Subordinated Notes. On March 24, 2009, Freescales invitation to participate in the Debt
Exchange expired for all Toggle Notes. Through the Debt Exchange, $2,829 million aggregate principal amounts of Existing Notes were retired, including $281 million of Floating Rate Notes, $957 million of Toggle Notes, $845 million of Fixed Rate
Notes and $746 million of Senior Subordinated Notes. Based on the principal amount of Floating Rate Notes, Fixed Rate Notes and Senior Subordinated Notes delivered and accepted, Freescale has issued approximately $665 million principal amount of
Incremental Term Loans under the Incremental Amendment dated March 17, 2009. On March 26, 2009, based on the principal amount of Toggle Notes validly delivered and accepted, Freescale has issued an additional $237 million principal amount
of Incremental Term Loans. Furthermore, as compensation for the arranger services, additional Incremental Term Loans with a principal of $22 million were issued, for a total of approximately $924 million aggregate principal amount of Incremental
Term Loans. At July 3, 2009, the Incremental Term Loans are recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at a $376 million discount, which is subject to accretion to par value over the term of the restructured debt using the effective
interest method. The Incremental Term Loans were valued based upon the public trading prices of the Existing Notes exchanged immediately prior to the launch of the Debt Exchange.

Upon completion of the Debt Exchange, the carrying value of Freescales outstanding long-term debt obligations on the Existing Notes declined by
$2,853 million, including $24 million of accrued PIK Interest (as defined later in this section). This decline was partially offset by the issuance of Incremental Term Loans with a carrying value of $540 million. Freescale recorded $17 million
of debt issuance costs in connection with the Incremental Term Loans.

Credit Facility

At July 3, 2009, Freescale, Holdings III, IV and V had a senior secured credit facility (Credit Facility) that included (i) a
$3.5 billion term loan (Term Loan), (ii) the aforementioned Incremental Term Loans and (iii) a revolving credit facility, including letters of credit and swing line loan sub-facilities, with a committed capacity of $690
million (Revolver), excluding a non-funding commitment attributable to Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc. (LCPI), which filed a petition under

##### Table of Contents

Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York on October 5, 2008. LCPI is a
counterparty to the Revolver. LCPI has a commitment in the amount of $60 million of the Revolver; but, we do not expect that borrowing requests will be honored by LCPI.

During the first half of 2009, Freescale drew down $184 million, net of LCPI non-funding, from the Revolver. Freescale made this financial decision to further enhance its liquidity and net cash position. This improves
our financial flexibility as we continue to execute on our business plans.

Freescales debt agreements require additional payments
from proceeds received upon certain asset dispositions, excess cash flows and the incurrence or issuance of certain debt, as defined in the debt agreements. Based on our operating results for the year ended December 31,
2008, we made a mandatory prepayment in the first half of 2009 based on excess cash flows of approximately $24 million.

The Term Loan
will mature on December 1, 2013. The Revolver will be available through December 1, 2012, at which time all outstanding principal amounts under the Revolver will be due and payable. Borrowings under the Credit Facility may be used for
working capital purposes, capital expenditures, investments, share repurchases, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes. At July 3, 2009, $3,389 million and $644 million were outstanding under the Term Loan and Revolver, respectively,
and the Revolver had a remaining capacity of $16 million, excluding the LCPI commitment and $30 million in outstanding letters of credit.

The Term Loan and Revolver bear interest, at Freescales option, at a rate equal to a margin over either (i) a base rate equal to the higher of either (a) the prime rate of Citibank, N.A. or (b) the federal funds rate,
plus one-half of 1%; or, (ii) a LIBOR rate based on the cost of funds for deposit in the currency of borrowing for the relevant interest period, adjusted for certain additional costs. The interest rate on the Term Loan and the Revolver at
July 3, 2009 was 2.06% and 2.31%, respectively. The applicable margin for borrowings under the Revolver may be reduced subject to the attainment of certain leverage ratios. Freescale is also required to repay a portion of the outstanding Term
Loan balance in quarterly installments in aggregate annual amounts equal to 1% of the initial outstanding balance for the first six years and nine months after the Term Loan closing date, with the remaining balance due upon maturity. Freescale is
also required to pay quarterly facility commitment fees on the unutilized capacity of the Revolver at an initial rate of 0.50% per annum. The commitment fee rate may be reduced subject to our attaining certain leverage ratios. Freescale is also
required to pay customary letter of credit fees.

The Incremental Term Loans will mature on December 15, 2014. These loans are
guaranteed by the same guarantors under the existing Credit Facility agreement (see Note 4 in the December 31, 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion) and are secured by a security interest in all of the collateral for the
obligations of Freescale and the guarantors under the existing Credit Facility and related loan documents. The Incremental Term Loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 12.5% and a default rate of 14.5%, and interest on the Incremental Term
Loans is payable quarterly in arrears. Freescale is required to repay a portion of the outstanding Incremental Term Loan balance in quarterly installments in aggregate annual amounts equal to 1% of the initial outstanding balance (subject to
reduction following prepayment of such Incremental Term Loans as set forth in the existing Credit Facility agreement), with the remaining balance due upon maturity.

Existing Notes

Freescale had an aggregate principal amount of $2,927 million in senior notes
outstanding at July 3, 2009, consisting of (i) $194 million Floating Rate Notes bearing interest at a rate, reset quarterly, equal to 3-month LIBOR (which was 0.63% on July 3, 2008) plus 3.875% per annum, (ii) $556 million
of Toggle Notes, (iii) $1,413 million of Fixed Rate Notes, and (iv) $764 million of Senior Subordinated Notes. Relative to our overall indebtedness, the Existing Notes, rank in right of payment (i) equal to all senior unsecured
indebtedness (ii) senior to all subordinated indebtedness (including the Senior Subordinated Notes), and (iii) junior to all secured indebtedness (including the Credit Facility), to the extent assets secure that indebtedness. The Senior
Subordinated Notes are unsecured senior subordinated obligations and rank junior in right of payment to our senior indebtedness, including indebtedness under the Credit Facility and the other Existing Notes. The Existing Notes are governed by two
Indentures dated as of December 1, 2006, as supplemented and amended.

In the second quarter of 2009, Freescale repurchased $29
million of its Fixed Rate Notes and $17 million of its Toggle Notes. Freescale used funds from the short-term investment portfolio for the purchase and early retirement of these notes at a $21 million discount, net of $1 million in non-cash charges
associated with the recognition of unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the early retirement of this debt. The redemption price included accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the redemption date.

##### Table of Contents

In 2008, Freescale elected to use the payment-in-kind (PIK) feature of its outstanding Toggle
Notes in lieu of making cash interest payments (PIK Interest) for the interest period ending on June 15, 2009. In connection with this election, on December 4, 2008, Freescale delivered notice to The Bank of New York Mellon
(formerly The Bank of New York), in its capacity as trustee under the Indenture governing the Toggle Notes, that, with respect to the interest that would be due on such notes on the June 15, 2009 interest payment date, it would make such
interest payment by paying in kind at the PIK interest rate of 9.875% instead of paying interest in cash. As a result, Freescale issued a total of approximately $27 million of incremental Toggle Notes on June 15, 2009. Freescale also elected to
use the PIK feature of its outstanding Toggle Notes for the interest period ending on December 15, 2009. Accordingly, as of July 3, 2009, $3 million of accrued PIK Interest associated with the Toggle Notes was classified as long-term debt.

In connection with the issuance of the Term Loan and Floating Rate Notes, Freescale also entered into interest rate swap contracts with
various counterparties as a hedge of the variable cash flows of our variable interest rate debt. See Note 5 for further details of these interest rate swap contracts. In the first quarter of 2009, Freescale switched to 1-month LIBOR on the Term Loan
in order to realize interest payment savings on decreasing interest rates.

Covenant Compliance

The Credit Facility and Indentures have restrictive covenants that limit the ability of our subsidiaries to, among other things, incur or guarantee
additional indebtedness or issue preferred stock; pay dividends and make other restricted payments; incur restrictions on the payment of dividends or other distributions from our restricted subsidiaries; create or incur certain liens; make certain
investments; transfer or sell assets; engage in transactions with affiliates; and, merge or consolidate with other companies or transfer all or substantially all of our assets. Under the Credit Facility and Indentures, Freescale must comply with
conditions precedent that must be satisfied prior to any borrowing, as well as ongoing compliance with specified affirmative and negative covenants. The Credit Facility and Indentures also provide for customary events of default, including failure
to pay any principal or interest when due, failure to comply with covenants and cross defaults or cross acceleration provisions. Freescale was in compliance with these covenants as of July 3, 2009.

Some of these covenants restrict us if we fail to meet financial ratios based on our level of profitability. The 2009 global economic
environment has resulted in lower operating profitability, causing four financial ratios (the total leverage ratio, the senior secured first lien leverage ratio, the fixed charge coverage ratio and the consolidated secured debt
ratio) to fall outside of the ranges set forth in the Credit Facility and Indentures. This does not result in any form of non-compliance with our covenants contained within the Credit Facility and Indentures, but does impose certain
of the restrictions discussed in the preceding paragraph, such as our ability to transfer or sell assets; merge or consolidate with other companies; make certain investments; and incur additional indebtedness.

Credit Ratings

As of July 3, 2009, our
corporate credit ratings from Standard & Poors, Moodys and Fitch were B-, Caa1 and CCC, respectively.

Other Indebtedness

During the third quarter of 2006, one of our foreign subsidiaries requested and received a draw from an existing Japanese
yen-denominated revolving loan agreement to repay an intercompany loan. In the fourth quarter of 2008, the foreign subsidiary drew down an additional $37 million under this revolving loan in order to enhance its cash position and liquidity. In the
third quarter of 2009, we entered into an amended arrangement for this revolving loan balance, whereby we will make quarterly payments of approximately $14 million beginning in the third quarter of 2009 and concluding in the fourth quarter of 2010.
The land and buildings located at our Sendai, Japan manufacturing facility are pledged as collateral on this revolving loan until the fourth quarter of 2010 when the loan is fully repaid. In addition, our land and buildings at our Sendai, Japan
design center are pledged as collateral until the fourth quarter of 2009. Previously, the entire balance was classified in notes payable and current portion of long-term debt and capital lease obligations on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet;
however, in connection with the amended arrangement, $29 million has been reclassified as long-term debt. As of July 3, 2009, $86 million was outstanding under this loan.

##### Table of Contents

We are required to make debt service payments under the terms of our debt agreements. The remaining
obligated debt payments for 2009 as of July 3, 2009 are $51 million. Future obligated debt payments are $102 million in 2010, $44 million in 2011, $688 million in 2012, $3,276 million in 2013, $3,043 million in 2014 and $764
million thereafter.

(5) Risk Management

Foreign
Currency Risk

At July 3, 2009 and December 31, 2008, we had net outstanding foreign currency exchange contracts not
designated as accounting hedges with notional amounts totaling approximately $114 million and $199 million, respectively, which are accounted for at fair value. The fair value of the forward contracts was a net unrealized gain of less than $1
million and $9 million at July 3, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. Forward contract gains (losses) of $4 million and $3 million for the second quarter of 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $(4) million and $4 million for the
first half of 2009 and 2008, respectively, were recorded in other, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations related to our realized and unrealized results associated with these foreign exchange contracts. Management believes
that these financial instruments will not subject us to undue risk due to foreign exchange movements because gains and losses on these contracts should offset losses and gains on the assets and liabilities being hedged. The following table shows, in
millions of U.S. dollars, the notional amounts of the most significant net foreign exchange hedge positions for outstanding foreign exchange contracts not designated as accounting hedges:



|                  |  |             |    |                  |   |

|Swedish Kroner    |  | $           | 4  |                  | $ | 4  

At July 3, 2009 and December 31, 2008, we had net outstanding foreign exchange contracts
designated as cash flow hedges with notional amounts totaling approximately $16 million and $186 million, respectively, which are accounted for at fair value. The fair value of these contracts was a net unrealized loss of less than $1 million
and $7 million at July 3, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. Management believes that these financial instruments will not subject us to undue risk due to foreign exchange movements because gains and losses on these
contracts should offset losses and gains on the forecasted expenses being hedged. We have provided $3 million in collateral to one of our counterparties in connection with our foreign exchange hedging program as of July 3, 2009. This amount is
classified as restricted cash and is recorded as a component of other current assets on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet.

Interest Rate Risk

We use interest rate swap agreements to assist in managing the floating rate portion of our debt portfolio. As of July 3,
2009, we have effectively fixed our interest rate on $500 million of our variable rate debt through December 1, 2009. This amount excludes a LBSF swap arrangement with a notional amount of $400 million which was settled during the second
quarter of 2009 at a $4 million gain. LBSF filed a petition under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York on October 3, 2008. During 2008, we entered into two
additional interest rate swaps, each with a notional amount of $100 million. These swaps are effective from December 1, 2009 through December 1, 2012. An interest rate swap is a contractual agreement to exchange payments based on
underlying interest rates. We are required to pay the counterparties a stream of fixed interest payments at an average rate of 4.84%, and in turn, receive variable interest payments based on 3-month LIBOR (0.67% at July 3, 2009) from the
counterparties. The net receipts or payments from the interest rate swap agreements are recorded in other, net. As these interest rate swaps do not meet the requirements of a cash flow hedge, all related gains and losses due to the change in fair
value will be recognized in other, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. In the second quarter 2008, in accordance with SFAS No. 133, we recognized a $14 million pre-tax gain related to the change in fair value of these
interest rate swaps. During the first quarter of 2008, in accordance with SFAS No. 133, we recognized a $25 million pre-tax loss in other, net related to the cumulative ineffective portion and subsequent change in fair value of our interest
rate swaps that are no longer classified as a cash flow hedge. In the second quarter and first half of 2009, the change in fair value of these interest rate swaps was less than $1 million.

(6) Stock and Equity-Based Compensation Plans

We participate in Freescale Holdings L.P. and Holdings I stock-based compensation plans whereby our officers, directors and key employees may be granted
stock options, restricted stock units, other stock-based awards and/or performance-related awards, including profit interests. Our employees and directors make up all of the participants in the plans; thus, amounts related to Holdings I share based
compensation have been included in the disclosures below. Additionally, stock option, restricted stock unit (RSU) and deferred stock unit (DSU) awards are settled with shares of Holdings I common stock with an appropriate
allocation of expense to us attributable to our employees with an offset to additional paid-in capital as the awards vest.

Stock Option Exchange

On April 6, 2009, Holdings I granted stock options to purchase shares of Holdings I common stock under the Freescale Holdings
2006 Management Incentive Plan and the 2007 Non-Executive Incentive Plan by entering into new non-qualified stock option agreements with certain officers and employees. The Compensation and Leadership Committee of the Holdings I Board of Directors
approved the form of the non-qualified stock option agreements in connection with an exchange of existing vested and unvested Class B Limited Partnership Interests in Freescale Holdings L.P. (Class B Interests) and stock options to
purchase Holdings I common stock, in each case, for new stock options to purchase Holdings I common stock (Option Exchange). Under the terms of each of the agreements, the new stock options have a term of ten years and vest and become
exercisable in four equal installments on each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of April 6thand are subject to the terms and conditions of the investors agreements. The exercise price for the new stock options granted under both agreements is equal to the fair market value per share of Holdings I
common stock on the date of grant.

Previously granted stock options and Class B Interests were exchanged for new options with a lower
exercise price granted on a one-for-one basis for stock options and on a one-for-one hundred forty four basis for Class B Interests (including the 1.2472% Class B-2008 Series Interest). Stock options to purchase an aggregate of approximately
16 million shares of Holdings I common stock and 67 thousand Class B Interests (including the 1.2472% Class B-2008 Series Interest) were exchanged for approximately 38 million new stock options. Options granted pursuant to the Option
Exchange have an exercise price of $1.24 per share. In accordance with SFAS 123(R), Share-based Payments, the increase in the fair value of the Holdings I stock options that occurred in connection with the Option Exchange resulted in a
modification charge of approximately $18 million, which will be recognized over the vesting period of the new options (four years), less estimated forfeitures.

Non-qualified Options

In 2006, we adopted a stock-based compensation plan (2006 Management Incentive Plan),
which authorizes stock-based awards to be granted to management and key employees for up to 31.2 million shares of Holdings I common stock. On February 4, 2009, the 2006 Management Incentive Plan was amended to allow up to approximately
60.5 million shares of Holdings I common stock to be issued under this plan. As of July 3, 2009, approximately 42 million non-qualified stock options (2006 Options), with exercise prices ranging from $1.24 to $7.00 per
share, have been issued to certain members of management. (These stock options include those issued in connection with the Option Exchange.) The 2006 Options vest 25% on each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the date of grant
and are subject to the terms and conditions of the Investors Agreement dated December 1, 2006. As of July 3, 2009, we had approximately $64 million in unamortized expense, net of expected forfeitures, which is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over a period of four years in additional paid-in capital.

In March 2007, we adopted the Freescale Semiconductor Holdings 2007 Employee Incentive Plan (2007 Non-Executive
Incentive Plan), which authorizes the issuance of up to 4.9 million shares of Holdings I common stock in the form of stock-based awards to key employees. As of July 3, 2009, approximately 3 million non-qualified stock options
(2007 Options), with exercise prices ranging from $1.24 to $7.00 per share, have been issued to key employees. (These stock options include those issued in connection with the Option Exchange.) The 2007 Options vest 25% on each of the
first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the date of grant and are subject to certain shareholder agreements. As of July 3, 2009, we had approximately $7 million in unamortized expense, net of expected forfeitures, which is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of four years in additional paid-in capital.

The fair value of the 2007 Options granted
in the periods presented was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing method. The assumptions used in the model are outlined in the following table:

Class B Interests

During the second quarter of 2009, 67 thousand Class B Interests, as well as the 1.2472% Class B-2008 Series Interest, were canceled in exchange for new stock options to purchase Holdings I common stock in connection with the Option
Exchange. As of July 3, 2009, 130 thousand vested Class B Interests, held by certain former executives of Freescale remain outstanding.

Restricted and Deferred Stock Units

During the first and second quarters of 2009, we granted performance-based DSUs to
certain executives of Freescale under the 2006 Management Incentive Plan. The number of DSUs that could be earned pursuant to such awards range from none to twice the number of target DSUs established at the grant date based upon the achievement of
EBITDA and revenue growth levels measured against a group of peer companies over a three-year period from January 1, 2009. The performance-based DSUs, to the extent earned, vest 100% on the fourth anniversary of the grant date.

A summary of changes in RSUs and DSUs outstanding during the six months ended July 3, 2009 is presented below:

Under the terms of the RSU and DSU award agreements, shares of common stock are not issued to the
participant upon vesting of the RSU or DSU. Shares are issued upon the earlier of: (i) the participants termination of employment; (ii) the participants death; (iii) the participants disability; (iv) a change of
control; or (v) the seventh anniversary of the date of grant for RSUs and January 5, 2013 for DSUs. Vested RSUs and DSUs are considered outstanding until shares have been issued.

As of July 3, 2009, we had approximately $24 million in unamortized expense related to RSUs and DSUs, net of expected forfeitures, which are being
amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of two to four years.

(7) Income Taxes

Income taxes for the interim periods presented herein have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements on the basis of an estimated annual effective tax rate. As of July 3, 2009,
the estimated annual effective tax rate for 2009 is an income tax expense of less than 1%, excluding income tax expense of $24 million and $11 million recorded for discrete events occurring in the second quarter and first half of 2009,
respectively. These discrete events primarily reflect income tax expense related to a valuation allowance associated with the deferred tax assets of one of our foreign subsidiaries. The impact of the valuation allowance is partially offset by the
release of income tax reserves related to foreign audit settlements.

During the second quarter of 2009, we recorded a $24 million income
tax expense related to a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets in one of our foreign subsidiaries. We determined that it is more likely than not that these foreign deferred assets would not be realized based on consideration of available
evidence. This assessment was primarily due to the acceleration of the timing of discontinuing the manufacturing operations within this foreign subsidiary. The assessment required considerable judgment on the part of management with respect to
benefits that could be realized from future income, as well as other positive and negative factors.

During the first quarter of 2009, we
recorded a $2,264 million net gain as a result of the reduction in our outstanding long-term debt in connection with the Debt Exchange. We continue to be in an overall three year domestic cumulative loss position, inclusive of the cancellation of
debt gain. A valuation allowance of $560 million was recorded on our domestic deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2008, so substantially all of the domestic tax expense related to the cancellation of debt income was offset by a beneficial
release of the valuation allowance on our domestic deferred tax assets. We anticipate paying some state income taxes in the U.S. resulting from the net debt extinguishment, although the amounts of the obligations are not expected to be material.

In 2009, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (the Act) was passed which grants temporary relief under the
Delayed Recognition of Cancellation of Debt Income (CODI) rules. The Act contains a provision that allows the taxpayer to elect a five-year deferral of CODI for debt reacquired in 2009, followed by recognition of CODI ratably over 2014
to 2018. The provision applies for specified types of repurchases including the acquisition of a debt instrument for cash and the exchange of one debt instrument for another. If we applied such delayed recognition of CODI, it would result in a
deferred tax liability related to the amount of CODI delayed and could subject us to domestic cash income taxes in the future. We currently do not anticipate deferring CODI in connection with finalizing our Federal tax return in 2010. We also do not
believe we will have any federal cash income tax expense associated with our CODI.

Our annual effective tax rate is less than the
statutory 35% percent due to (i) minimal domestic tax expense in our domestic earnings due to the utilization of deferred tax assets, which were subject to a valuation allowance and (ii) the mix of earnings and losses by taxing
jurisdictions and foreign tax rate differentials.

(8) Contingencies

Commitments

Product purchase commitments associated with our strategic manufacturing
relationships include take or pay provisions based on volume commitments for work in progress and forecasted demand based on 18-month rolling forecasts, which are adjusted monthly. At July 3, 2009, our commitment is $32 million through October
2009.

Environmental

Under the
Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (CERCLA, or Superfund), and equivalent state law, Motorola has been designated as a Potentially Responsible Party by the United States Environmental Protection
Agency with respect to certain waste sites with which our operations may have had direct or indirect involvement. Such designations are made regardless of the extent of Motorolas involvement. Pursuant to the master separation and distribution
agreement entered into in connection with our spin-off from Motorola, Freescale has indemnified Motorola for these liabilities going forward. These claims are in various stages of administrative or judicial proceedings. They include demands for
recovery of past governmental costs and for future investigations or remedial actions. The remedial efforts include environmental cleanup costs and communication programs. In many cases, the dollar amounts of the claims have not been specified and
have been asserted against a number of other entities for the same cost recovery or other relief as was asserted against Freescale We accrue costs associated with environmental matters when they become probable and reasonably estimable by recording
the future estimated cash flows associated with such costs on a discounted basis. Due to the uncertain nature of these contingencies, the actual costs that will be incurred could materially differ from the amounts accrued.

Litigation

We are a defendant in various lawsuits, including intellectual property suits, and are subject to various claims which arise in the normal course of business. The Company records an associated liability when a loss is
probable and the amount is reasonably estimable.

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of
business, including tort and contractual disputes, claims before the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and other employee grievances, and intellectual property litigation and infringement claims. Intellectual property litigation
and infringement claims could cause us to incur significant expenses or prevent us from selling our products. Under agreements with Motorola, Freescale must indemnify Motorola for certain liabilities related to our business incurred prior to our
separation from Motorola.

A purported class action, Howell v. Motorola, Inc., et al., was filed against Motorola and certain of its
directors, officers and employees in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois (Illinois District Court) on July 21, 2003, alleging breach of fiduciary duty and violations of the Employment Retirement
Income Security Act (ERISA). The complaint alleged that the defendants had improperly permitted participants in the Motorola 401(k) Plan (Plan) to purchase or hold shares of common stock of Motorola because the price of
Motorolas stock was artificially inflated by a failure to disclose vendor financing to Telsim in connection with the sale of telecommunications equipment by Motorola. The plaintiff sought to represent a class of participants in the Plan for
whose individual accounts the Plan purchased or held shares of common stock of Motorola from May 16, 2000 to the present, and sought an unspecified amount of damages. On September 30, 2005, the Illinois District Court dismissed
the second amended complaint filed on October 15, 2004. Plaintiff filed an appeal to the dismissal on October 27, 2005. On March 19, 2007, the appeals court dismissed the appeal. Three new purported lead plaintiffs intervened in the
case, and filed a motion for class certification seeking to represent Plan participants for whose individual accounts the Plan purchased and/or held shares of Motorola common stock from May 16, 2000 through December 31, 2002. On
September 28, 2007, the Illinois District Court granted the motion for class certification but narrowed the requested scope of the class. Motorola has sought leave to appeal in the appellate court and reconsideration in the Illinois District
Court of certain aspects of the class certification order. On October 25, 2007, the Illinois District Court modified the scope of the class, granted summary judgment dismissing two of the individually-named defendants in light of the narrowed
class, and ruled that the judgment as to the original named plaintiff, Howell, would be immediately appealable. The class as certified includes all Plan participants for whose individual accounts the Plan purchased and/or held shares of Motorola
common stock from May 16, 2000 through May 14, 2001 with certain exclusions. On February 15, 2008, Motorola and its codefendants filed motions for summary judgment on all claims asserted by the class. On October 23, 2008,
the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit heard Motorolas interlocutory appeal of the District Courts order certifying the class. On June 17, 2009, the district court granted defendants motions for
summary judgment on all claims. This ruling rendered moot the interlocutory appeals current before the Seventh Circuit. The plaintiffs have not indicated whether they would appeal the June 17, 2009 ruling of the district
court. As a result of the terms of its separation from Motorola, it is possible that Freescale could be held responsible to Motorola for a portion of any judgment or settlement in this matter. We continue to assess the merits of this action as
well as the potential effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

On April 17, 2007, Tessera
Technologies, Inc. (Tessera) filed a complaint against Freescale, ATI Technologies, Inc., Motorola, Inc., Qualcomm, Inc., Spansion, Inc., Spansion LLC, and STMicroelectronics N.V. (collectively, the Respondents) in the
International Trade Commission (ITC) requesting the ITC enter an injunction barring the importation of any product containing a device that infringes two identified patents related to ball grid array (BGA) packaging
technology. On April 17, 2007, Tessera filed a parallel lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas against ATI, Freescale, Motorola and Qualcomm claiming an unspecified amount of monetary damage as
compensation for the alleged infringement of the same Tessera patents. Tesseras patent claims relate to BGA packaging technology. On February 26, 2008, the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) in the ITC proceeding granted the
Respondents motion to stay the ITC proceeding pending the completion of the reexamination by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office of the two patents asserted by Tessera in the ITC proceeding. On March 27, 2008, the ITC reversed this
decision and ordered the reinstatement of the ITC proceeding, which occurred during the week of July 14, 2008. On December 1, 2008, the ALJ issued his determination finding in favor of the Respondents and recommending that no injunction
barring importation of the Respondents products be entered. In accordance with its rights, Tessera petitioned the ITC to review the ALJs determination on December 15, 2008. On May 20, 2009 the ITC issued a final order finding
that all the Respondents infringe on Tesseras asserted patents, and granted Tesseras request for a Limited Exclusion Order prohibiting the importation of Respondents infringing products. Freescale appealed the ITCs decision
to the Federal Court of Appeals. During the pendency of the appellate process, we are taking all necessary actions to comply with the Limited Exclusion Order. We continue to assess potential effects on our consolidated financial position,
results of operations and cash flows.

On March 25, 2009, a group of senior lenders under the Credit Facility, including ING Prime Rate
Trust (ING), filed a complaint against Freescale and certain unnamed unsecured debtholders in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York. The suit challenges our right to issue the new Incremental Term Loans under the
Credit Facility to certain holders of the Existing Notes, thereby allowing those unsecured debtholders to become secured lenders with loans that are equal in priority to the plaintiffs. The plaintiffs claim that this action has devalued their
loans and put the repayment of their loans at additional risk. The complaint asserts that our representation and warranty that Freescale has not experienced a Material Adverse Effect (MAE) since the closing of the Credit Facility, which
we made as a prerequisite to the issuance of new Incremental Term Loans, was untrue when made. The plaintiffs argue that Freescale has suffered a MAE between 2006 and the issuance of the new Incremental Term Loans. The plaintiffs filed an amended
complaint on May 20, 2009 adding additional plaintiffs and removing the unnamed unsecured debtholders as defendants. Among other things, the plaintiffs are seeking monetary damages suffered as a result of the issuance of new Incremental Term
Loans. Freescale filed a motion to dismiss the suit on June 19, 2009. We believe that these claims made by the lenders are without merit and intend to vigorously defend this action.

Other Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, we regularly execute contracts that
contain customary indemnification provisions. Additionally, we execute other contracts considered outside the ordinary course of business which contain indemnification provisions. Examples of these types of agreements include business divestitures,
business acquisitions, settlement agreements and third-party performance guarantees. In each of these circumstances, payment by us is conditioned on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular contract,
which procedures typically allow us to challenge the other partys claims. Further, our obligations under these agreements may be limited in terms of duration (typically limited to a duration of 24 months or less) and/or amounts are not to
exceed the contract value. In some instances, we may have recourse against third parties for certain payments made by us.

Historically, we
have not made significant payments for indemnification provisions contained in these agreements. As of July 3, 2009, there was one outstanding contract executed outside the ordinary course of business containing indemnification obligations with
a maximum amount payable of $4 million. As of July 3, 2009, we have accrued $4 million related to known estimated indemnification obligations, and we believe there are no obligations that would result in material payments for any unknown
matters.

(9) Reorganization of Businesses and Other

We have entered into plans to reduce our workforce, discontinue product lines, exit or refocus our business strategies and consolidate manufacturing and administrative operations in an effort to improve our
operational effectiveness, reduce costs and simplify our product portfolio. At each reporting date, we evaluate our accruals for exit costs and employee separation costs, which consist primarily of termination benefits (principally severance and
relocation payments), to ensure that our accruals are still appropriate. In certain circumstances, accruals are no longer required because of efficiencies in carrying out our plans or because employees previously identified for separation resigned
unexpectedly and did not receive severance or were redeployed due to circumstances not foreseen when the original plans were initiated. We reverse accruals to income when it is determined they are no longer required.

Six Months Ended July 3, 2009

Reorganization of Business
Program

During the fourth quarter of 2008, we announced that we intend to renew our focus on key market leadership positions. In
connection with this announcement and given general market conditions, we have initiated a series of restructuring actions to streamline our cost structure and re-direct some research and development investments into growth markets
(Reorganization of Business Program). These actions include the wind-down of our cellular handset business, restructuring our participation in the IBM alliance (a jointly-funded research alliance), discontinuing manufacturing operations
at our East Kilbride, Scotland facility and our Sendai, Japan facility, and consolidating logistical and certain administrative operations. We incurred $106 million in severance and exit costs associated with the Reorganization of Business Program,
pension termination benefits, asset impairment charges and disposition activities in the first half of 2009 These actions will reduce headcount in our supply chain, technology, sales, marketing and general and administrative functions.

In the first half of 2009, we recorded severance costs in connection with our decision to exit our
manufacturing facility in Sendai, Japan based on progress made towards closure during the second quarter of 2009 and severance costs associated with the wind-down of our cellular handset business. The remainder of the reorganization costs consist
primarily of severance costs related to our ongoing Reorganization of Business Program.

We separated approximately 3,440 employees during
the first half of 2009. The $114 million used reflects cash payments made to employees separated as part of the Reorganization of Business Program through the first half of 2009. We will make additional payments to these separated employees and the
remaining approximately 1,150 employees through the first quarter of 2011.

During the third quarter of 2008, we also recorded exit and
other costs related to a strategic decision to restructure our participation in the IBM alliance, a jointly-funded research alliance among several semiconductor manufacturers which was formed to develop 300-millimeter technologies. We paid the
remaining $26 million of the related charge for this action during the second quarter of 2009.

Termination Benefits

We recorded $12 million in charges in the second quarter of 2009 related to our Japanese subsidiarys pension plan. These charges are related to
certain termination benefits and settlement costs in connection with our plan to discontinue our manufacturing operations in Sendai, Japan in 2011 and other previously executed severance actions in Japan.

Asset Impairment Charges and Disposition Activities

During the first half of 2009, we recorded an additional $7 million of non-cash impairment charges related primarily to certain other assets classified as held-for-sale as of July 3, 2009. During the first half of 2009, we also
recorded gains of (i) $2 million associated with the disposition of certain equipment formerly used in our cellular handset business, and (ii) $2 million in connection with the sale of a parcel of land at our Toulouse, France manufacturing
facility.

Other Reorganization of Business Programs

In the first half of 2009, we reversed $2 million of severance accruals related to reorganization of business programs initiated in prior periods. These reversals were due to a number of employees previously
identified for separation who resigned and did not receive severance or were redeployed due to circumstances not foreseen when original plans were approved. As of the end of the first half of 2009, we have $5 million of remaining severance,
relocation and exit cost accruals associated with these programs. We expect to make the final payments related to these programs by the end of 2009.

Six Months Ended June 27, 2008

Other Reorganization of Business Programs

In the first half of 2008, we recorded $28 million of severance accruals and other exit costs related to reorganization of business programs initiated in
prior to the third quarter of 2008. We also reversed $2 million of severance accruals related to

##### Table of Contents

these earlier reorganization of business programs due to a number of employees previously identified for separation who either resigned and did not receive
severance or were redeployed due to circumstances not foreseen when original plans were approved. An additional $7 million of severance accruals were reversed to goodwill due to efficiencies achieved through the execution of a research and design
center consolidation program and the redeployment of certain resources.

Executive Leadership Transition

During the first half of 2008, $26 million was recorded in reorganization of businesses and other related to the change in executive leadership. Of this
amount, $17 million was a non-cash charge for equity compensation expense as a result of the accelerated vesting of certain Class B Interests in connection with the execution of a separation agreement with Michel Mayer, our former Chairman of the
Board and Chief Executive Officer. We also recognized $8 million in severance costs related to Mr. Mayers separation and $1 million in compensation related to the sign-on bonus for Richard Beyer, our current Chairman of the Board and
Chief Executive Officer.

Crolles Manufacturing and Research Alliance

During the first half of 2008, we finalized a grant related to our former research and manufacturing alliance in Crolles, France. We recognized a benefit
of $9 million for the grant in reorganization of businesses and other related to the portion of the grant for assets sold during the first half of 2008. We also recorded a benefit of $5 million to research and development expense in connection with
the receipt of this grant.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our results of operations and financial condition for the three and six
months ended July 3, 2009 and June 27, 2008 should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes in Item 8: Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of our December 31, 2008 Annual
Report on Form 10-K. This discussion contains forward looking statements and involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those described in the Risk Factors in Part I, Item 1A of our December 31,
2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward looking statements.

Overview

Our Business. With over 50 years of operating history, Freescale is a leader in the design and manufacture of embedded
processors. We currently focus on providing products to the automotive, consumer, industrial, networking and wireless infrastructure industries. In addition to our embedded processors, we offer our customers a broad portfolio of complementary
devices that provide connectivity between products, across networks and to real-world signals, such as sound, vibration and pressure. Our complementary products include sensors, radio frequency semiconductors, power management and other analog and
mixed-signal integrated circuits. Through our embedded processors and complementary products, we are also able to offer our customers platform-level products, which incorporate both semiconductors and software. We believe that our ability to offer
platform-level products will be increasingly important to our long-term success in many markets within the semiconductor industry as our customers continue to move toward providers of embedded processors and complementary products.

Revenues and Expenses. Our revenues are derived from the sale of our embedded processing and connectivity products and the licensing
of our intellectual property.

We currently manufacture a substantial portion of our products internally at our five wafer fabrication
facilities and two assembly and test facilities. We track our inventory and cost of sales by using standard costs that are reviewed at least once a year and are valued at the lower of cost or market value.

Our gross margin is significantly influenced by our utilization. Utilization refers only to our wafer fabrication facilities and is based on the capacity
of the installed equipment. As utilization rates decrease, there is less operating leverage as fixed manufacturing costs are spread over lower output. We have experienced a significant decline in our utilization rate (to slightly above 40%) since
the three months ended June 27, 2008. We anticipate continued pressure on our utilization and gross margin as compared to the prior year due to the current macro-economic environment.

Trends in Our Business. We have experienced continued pressure on revenues associated with the macroeconomic weakness, particularly in the
automotive industry. We expect continued uncertainty with respect to the automotive industry as well as with other of our end markets. This will continue to affect our revenues and profitability during 2009. Given the nature of the global
macroeconomic weakness and its effects on our end markets, we are unable to precisely forecast when or if revenues and profitability will return to historical levels.

We have been significantly impacted by the continued weakness in the global automotive market, as light vehicle production by the Big 3 U.S. automakers in the second quarter of 2009 declined approximately 55% versus
the prior year quarter. The bankruptcies of both General Motors (GM) and Chrysler, and to a lesser extent, Visteon and Lear, has further dampened automotive factory production. Our Microcontroller Solutions and Radio Frequency, Analog
and Sensor revenues in the second quarter of 2009 declined by 41%, as compared to the second quarter of 2008. We expect these conditions to persist into future quarters and to adversely affect our revenues and profitability, but we are not able to
precisely forecast the level and duration of such weakened demand. In addition, our cellular handset product group revenues decreased 64% in the first half of 2009 versus the first half of 2008 following the termination of an arrangement with
Motorola, whereby Motorola agreed to provide certain consideration in exchange for our eliminating their remaining minimum purchase commitments.

In light of our renewed focus on key market leadership positions and given general market conditions, we have initiated a series of restructuring actions to streamline our cost structure and re-direct some research and development
investments into growth markets. These actions will reduce headcount in our supply chain, technology, sales, marketing and general and administrative functions. We also implemented certain non-severance austerity measures (executive salary
reductions, mandatory time off without pay, savings plan company match elimination), from which we have realized benefits during the first half of 2009. We expect such benefits to continue in the near term.

##### Table of Contents

On April 22, 2009, we announced actions to align the Companys spending with its prior decision
to wind-down the cellular handset business. We plan to accomplish the majority of the employment reductions and pay certain severance costs by December 31, 2009. Implementation of this plan and any specific employment actions related to the
plan are subject to satisfaction of legal requirements, including prior consultation on the plan with work councils in some of the countries in which we operate.

Total severance and related cash requirements associated with these actions, inclusive of the costs associated with completing the wind-down of the cellular handset business, total approximately $270 million with
corresponding annualized savings of approximately $700 million realized by 2010. We have paid approximately $162 million of the cash restructuring charges in connection with the actions taken through July 3, 2009, resulting in approximately
$500 million in annualized cost savings.

We also announced that we are initiating a plan to eliminate our 150mm manufacturing capability.
We have experienced a migration from 150mm technologies to advanced technologies at our East Kilbride facility and are now seeing this happen to the technologies and products served by our Sendai, Japan and Toulouse, France 150mm fabs. The long-term
trend in declining overall demand for the bulk of the products served by these fabs has resulted in low factory utilization, which has been accelerated by todays global economic climate. This plan will result in the closure of our Sendai
fabrication facility. We anticipate the majority of these costs to be paid during the first quarter of 2011. We have also initiated a formal consultation with employees at our Toulouse facility. The proposal to close the facility is being evaluated
through consultation with our works council in Toulouse. We estimate the costs of the elimination of our 150mm manufacturing capability to be approximately $200 million, including approximately $190 million in cash severance costs and $10 million in
cash costs for other exit costs.

Going forward, our business will be highly dependent on demand for electronic content in automobiles,
networking and wireless infrastructure equipment and other electronic devices. In addition, we operate in an industry that is highly cyclical and subject to constant and rapid technological change, product obsolescence, price erosion, evolving
standards, short product life-cycles and wide fluctuations in product supply and demand. For more information on trends and other factors affecting our business, see Part II, Item 1A: Risk Factors in this July 3, 2009 Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q. For a description of other risk factors affecting our business and results of operations, refer to our December 31, 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Three Months Ended July 3, 2009 Compared to Three Months Ended June 27, 2008

Net Sales

We operate in one industry segment and
engage primarily in the design, development, manufacture and marketing of a broad range of semiconductor products that are based on our core capabilities in embedded processing. In addition, we offer customers differentiated products that complement
our embedded processors and provide connectivity, such as sensors, radio



23

##### Table of Contents

frequency semiconductors, and power management and other analog and mixed-signal semiconductors. Our capabilities enable us to offer customers a broad range
of product offerings, from individual devices to platform-level products that combine semiconductors with software for a given application.

We sell our products to distributors and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in a broad range of market segments. The majority of our sales are derived from four major product design groups: Microcontroller Solutions,
Cellular Products, Networking and Multimedia and Radio Frequency, Analog and Sensors. Other sales are attributable to revenue from intellectual property, sales to other semiconductor companies and miscellaneous businesses.

Our net sales and orders of approximately $824 million and $865 million in the second quarter of 2009 decreased 44% and 39%, respectively, compared to
the prior year quarter. We experienced lower net sales in almost all product segments as a result of (i) the termination of certain minimum purchase commitments of our cellular products by Motorola, (ii) decreasing production in the global
automotive industry along with the impact of the GM and Chrysler bankruptcies and the bankruptcies of certain of our customers, (iii) decreased demand from our distribution supply chain customers for consumer and industrial products, and
(iv) lower capital spending in enterprise and wireline infrastructure and a decline in consumer spending affecting digital home and multimedia products which negatively impacts our networking business. Distribution sales approximated 22% of our
total net sales and fell by 27% compared to the prior year quarter. Distribution inventory, in dollars, was 12.8 weeks of net sales at July 3, 2009, compared to 14.0 weeks of net sales at December 31, 2008. Net sales by product design
group for the three months ended July 3, 2009 and June 27, 2008 were as follows:

Microcontroller Solutions

Our Microcontroller Solutions product line represents the largest component of our total net sales. Microcontrollers and associated
application development systems represented approximately 29% and 31% of our total net sales in the second quarter of 2009 and 2008, respectively. Demand for our microcontroller products is driven by the automotive, consumer, industrial and computer
peripherals markets. In the second quarter of 2009, Microcontroller Solutions net sales declined by $222 million, or 48%, compared to the prior year quarter, primarily as a result of decreased global automotive demand and production cuts in the U.S.
automotive market. The number of units produced by the Big 3 automakers in the U.S. was down approximately 55%, reflecting both the decline in demand and the impact of manufacturing shut-downs in connection with the GM and Chrysler bankruptcies. We
were also affected by reduced demand in the consumer and industrial markets purchased through our distribution channel.

Networking
and Multimedia

Our networking and multimedia product line, which includes communications and digital signal
processors, networked multimedia devices and application processors, represented 26% and 21% of our total net sales in the second quarter of 2009 and 2008, respectively. Our primary end markets for our networking and multimedia products are the
wireless, wireline infrastructure, enterprise, SOHO and home networking, and mobile consumer markets. Networking and Multimedia net sales decreased by $96 million, or 31%, in the second quarter of 2009 compared to the prior year quarter, as a result
of lower capital spending in enterprise and wireline infrastructure and a decline in consumer spending affecting digital home and multimedia products.

Radio Frequency, Analog and Sensors

Our Radio Frequency, Analog and Sensors
product line, which includes radio frequency devices, analog devices and sensors, represented 24% and 19% of our total net sales in the second quarter of 2009 and 2008, respectively. Demand for our Radio Frequency, Analog and Sensors products is
driven by the automotive, consumer, industrial and computer peripherals markets. Radio Frequency, Analog and Sensors net sales in the

##### Table of Contents

second quarter of 2009 decreased by $79 million, or 28%, compared to the prior year quarter, as a result of lower demand for both analog and sensor products
from weakening U.S. automotive vehicle production. The decline experienced in our analog and sensor products was partially offset by stronger radio frequency product sales in the China 3G wireless infrastructure market.

Cellular Products

As discussed above in Trends in Our Business, we have announced the wind-down of our cellular handset business. Cellular Products, which includes baseband processors and power management integrated circuits, represented 17% and
23% of our total net sales in the second quarter of 2009 and 2008, respectively.

In January 2008, we entered into an
amended and extended arrangement with Motorola whereby we received cash proceeds, provided certain pricing modifications and relieved Motorola of certain obligations. We deferred revenue related to the cash proceeds received, which was being
recognized over the updated term of the arrangement beginning in the first quarter of 2008. During the third quarter of 2008, we updated our agreement with Motorola whereby Motorola agreed to provide certain consideration in exchange for eliminating
their remaining minimum purchase commitments. In connection with eliminating Motorolas remaining minimum purchase commitments and our current sales being only for legacy products, our cellular handset revenues for the second quarter of 2009
decreased by $199 million, or 59%, versus the prior year quarter.

Other

We consider the following to be classified as other sales (Other): sales to other semiconductor companies, intellectual
property revenues, product revenues associated with end markets outside of our product design group target markets, and revenues from sources other than semiconductors. Other represented 4% and 6% of our total net sales in the second quarter of 2009
and 2008, respectively. Demand for our Other products is driven primarily by capacity requirements of other semiconductor companies and the ability to license our intellectual property; both of these revenue streams are susceptible to timing and
volume fluctuations. Other net sales decreased by $52 million, or 63%, in the second quarter of 2009 compared to the prior year quarter, primarily as a result of a $52 million, or 84%, decrease in foundry sales, partially offset by a nominal
increase in intellectual property revenue.

Gross Margin

In the second quarter of 2009, our gross margin decreased $439 million compared to the prior year quarter. As a percentage of net sales, gross margin was 23.4%, reflecting a decline of 19.5 percentage points. This
decrease was attributable to substantially reduced revenues which resulted in a significant decline in factory utilization. This negatively impacted gross margin, as we are experiencing less operating leverage of fixed manufacturing costs. In
response to these circumstances, we have executed several cost savings initiatives, including reducing our cost of procured materials and services and executing a workforce reduction across our manufacturing organization. We have also discontinued
our manufacturing operations in our East Kilbride, Scotland site and reduced our supply chain and manufacturing operations headcount by approximately 26% since June 27, 2008.

Selling, General and Administrative

Our selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $55
million, or 31%, in the second quarter of 2009 compared to the prior year quarter. This decrease was the result of a concerted company-wide drive and execution of a strategy to reduce costs across all selling, general and administration departmental
functions and categories of expenses. We have executed workforce reductions and focused cost restructuring in the information technology, legal, sales and marketing functions. We have reduced our headcount in the selling, general and administrative
areas by approximately 22% since June 27, 2008. As a percent of our net sales, our selling, general and administrative expenses increased 2.6 percentage points primarily due to lower net sales.

Research and Development

Our research and
development expense decreased $82 million, or 28%, in the second quarter of 2009 compared to the prior year quarter. This decrease was the result of savings from an identified transformation plan including the restructuring of our participation in
the IBM alliance (a jointly-funded research alliance created to develop 300-millimeter technologies), and the exit of our MRAM business. We also experienced initial savings from the strategic realignment of our cellular handset business, which we
executed over the course of the second quarter of 2009. We have reduced our research and development headcount by approximately 21% since June 27, 2008. These savings were partially offset by external acquisitions and internal organic
investments in our remaining core businesses. As a percent of our net sales, our research and development expenses increased 5.7 percentage points due to lower net sales.

Amortization Expense for Acquired Intangible Assets

Amortization expense for acquired intangible assets related to developed technology, tradenames, trademarks and customer relationships
decreased by $151 million in the second quarter of 2009 compared to prior year quarter. The decrease was the result of a lower asset base following non-cash impairment charges recorded against these assets in the second half of 2008.

Reorganization of Businesses and Other

In connection with our intent to renew our focus on key market leadership positions and given general market conditions, we implemented a series of restructuring actions beginning in the third quarter of 2008 to further streamline our cost
structure and re-direct some research and development investments into growth markets. These actions will reduce headcount in our supply chain, technology, sales, marketing and general and administrative functions. In the second quarter of 2009, we
recorded $72 million in employee severance related to these actions, $3 million of non-cash asset impairment charges, and $4 million of gains related to the sale and disposition of certain capital assets. We also recorded $12 million in charges in
the second quarter of 2009 related to our Japanese subsidiarys pension plan. These charges are related to certain termination benefits and settlement costs in connection with our plan to discontinue our manufacturing operations in Sendai,
Japan in 2011 and other previously executed severance actions in Japan.

During the second quarter of 2008, we announced plans to
consolidate manufacturing and administrative operations in order to streamline our global organization and reduce costs. As a result, through an employee separation program we recorded charges of $21 million under reorganization of businesses and
other for severance costs. In addition to these employee separation costs, we recorded $7 million in exit and other costs related primarily to these actions and an $8 million non-cash impairment charge related to our manufacturing facility located
in Tempe, Arizona. We also recorded a $2 million reversal of previous accruals due to lower than expected employee separation costs related to a prior year reorganization program.

During the second quarter of 2008, we also finalized a grant related to our former research and manufacturing alliance in Crolles, France. We recognized
a benefit of $9 million for the grant in reorganization of businesses and other related to the portion of the grant for assets sold during the first half of 2008.

Gain on Extinguishment of Long-Term Debt, Net

During the second quarter of 2009, we recorded a $21 million pre-tax gain,
net in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in connection with the repurchase of $29 million of our Fixed Rate Notes and $17 million of our Toggle Notes. During the first quarter of 2008, we recorded a $6 million pre-tax gain in the
Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in connection with the repurchase of $13 million of our Senior Subordinated Notes and $10 million of our Fixed Rate Notes. (Terms defined and discussed in Note 4 to the accompanying condensed
consolidated financial statements.)

Other Expense, Net

Other expense, net decreased $21 million in the second quarter of 2009 compared to the prior year quarter. Net interest expense in the second quarter of 2009 included interest expense of $135 million partially offset
by interest income of $4 million. Net interest expense in the second quarter of 2008 included interest expense of $179 million partially offset by interest income of $12 million. The $44 million decrease in interest expense over the prior year
period was due to (i) savings related to a retirement of outstanding debt during 2009, partially offset by an increase in our revolving credit facility in the fourth quarter of 2008 and the first quarter of 2009, and (ii) lower interest
rates on our outstanding floating rate debt.

During the second quarter of 2008, in accordance with SFAS No. 133 we recognized a $14
million pre-tax gain in other, net related to the change in fair value of our interest rate swaps.

Income Tax Expense

As of July 3, 2009, the estimated annual effective tax rate for 2009 is an income tax expense of less than 1%, excluding an income
tax expense of $24 million recorded for discrete events occurring in the second quarter of 2009. These discrete events primarily reflect income tax expense related to establishing a valuation allowance associated with the deferred tax
assets of one of our foreign subsidiaries. In the second quarter of 2009, we determined that it is more likely than not that these foreign deferred assets would not be realized based on consideration of available evidence. This assessment was
primarily due to the acceleration of the timing of discontinuing the manufacturing operations within this foreign subsidiary.

##### Table of Contents

Our annual effective tax rate is less than the statutory 35% percent due to
(i) minimal domestic tax expense in our domestic earnings due to the utilization of deferred tax assets, which were subject to a valuation allowance and (ii) the mix of earnings and losses by taxing jurisdictions and foreign tax rate
differentials.

Six Months Ended July 3, 2009 Compared to Six Months Ended June 27, 2008

Net Sales

Our net sales and orders of approximately
$1,664 million and $1,744 million in the first half of 2009 decreased 42% and 38%, respectively, compared to the prior year period. We experienced lower net sales in almost all product segments as a result of (i) the termination of certain
minimum purchase commitments of our cellular products by Motorola, (ii) decreasing production in the global automotive industry along with the impact of the GM and Chrysler bankruptcies and the bankruptcies of certain of our customers,
(iii) decreased demand from our distribution supply chain customers for consumer and industrial, and (iv) lower capital spending in enterprise and wireline infrastructure and a decline in consumer spending affecting digital home and
multimedia products, which negatively impacts our networking business. These decreases were partially offset by increased non product revenue from intellectual property sales. Intellectual property revenue increased to 4% as a percentage of net
sales. Distribution sales approximated 20% of our total net sales and fell by 31% compared to the prior year period. Distribution inventory, in dollars, was 12.8 weeks of net sales at July 3, 2009, compared to 14.0 weeks of net sales at
December 31, 2008. Net sales by product design group for the six months ended July 3, 2009 and June 27, 2008 were as follows:

##### Table of Contents

Microcontroller Solutions

Our Microcontroller Solutions product line represents the largest component of our total net sales. Microcontrollers and associated
application development systems represented approximately 29% and 32% of our total net sales in the first half of 2009 and 2008, respectively. Demand for our microcontroller products is driven by the automotive, consumer, industrial and computer
peripherals markets. In the first half of 2009, Microcontroller Solutions net sales declined by $434 million, or 47%, compared to the prior year period, primarily as a result of decreased global automotive demand and production cuts in the U.S.
automotive market. The Big 3 U.S. automakers produced 55% fewer vehicles during the first six months of 2009 as compared to the first six month of 2008. We were also affected by reduced demand in the consumer and industrial markets purchased through
our distribution channel.

Networking and Multimedia

Our networking and multimedia product line, which includes communications and digital signal processors, networked multimedia devices and
application processors, represented 27% and 20% of our total net sales in the first half of 2009 and 2008, respectively. Our primary end markets for our networking and multimedia products are the wireless, wireline infrastructure, enterprise, SOHO
and home networking, and mobile consumer markets. Networking and Multimedia net sales decreased by $137 million, or 24%, in the first half of 2009 compared to the prior year period as a result of lower capital spending in enterprise and wireline
infrastructure and a decline in consumer spending affecting digital home and multimedia products. These items were partially offset by strength in the wireless infrastructure market in China.

Radio Frequency, Analog and Sensors

Our Radio Frequency, Analog and Sensors product line, which includes radio frequency devices, analog devices and sensors, represented 23% and 19% of our total net sales in the first half of 2009 and 2008,
respectively. Demand for our Radio Frequency, Analog and Sensors products is driven by the automotive, consumer, industrial and computer peripherals markets. Radio Frequency, Analog and Sensors net sales in the first half of 2009 decreased by $154
million, or 29%, compared to the prior year period as a result of lower demand for both analog and sensor product from weakening U.S. automotive vehicle production, partially offset by stronger sales in the China 3G wireless infrastructure market.

Cellular Products

As discussed above in Trends in Our Business, we have announced the wind-down of our cellular handset business. Cellular Products, which includes baseband processors and power management integrated
circuits, represented 14% and 23% of our total net sales in the first half of 2009 and 2008, respectively.

In January
2008, we entered into an amended and extended arrangement with Motorola whereby we received cash proceeds, provided certain pricing modifications and relieved Motorola of certain obligations. We deferred revenue related to the cash proceeds
received, which was being recognized over the updated term of the arrangement beginning in the first quarter of 2008. During the third quarter of 2008, we updated our agreement with Motorola whereby Motorola agreed to provide certain consideration
in exchange for eliminating their remaining minimum purchase commitments. Because of these events, our cellular handset revenues for the first half of 2009 decreased 64% versus the prior year period.

Other

We
consider the following to be classified as other sales (Other): sales to other semiconductor companies, intellectual property revenues, product revenues associated with end markets outside of our product design group target markets, and
revenues from sources other than semiconductors. Other represented 7% and 6% of our total net sales in the first half of 2009 and 2008, respectively. Demand for our Other products is driven primarily by capacity requirements of other semiconductor
companies and the ability to license our intellectual property; both of these revenue streams are susceptible to timing and volume fluctuations. Other net sales decreased by $66 million, 36%, in the first half of 2009 compared to the prior year
period primarily as a result of a $91 million, or 72%, decrease in foundry sales, partially offset by an increase in intellectual property revenue to 4 % of our total net sales.

Gross Margin

In the first half of 2009, our gross margin decreased $855 million compared to the prior year period. As a percentage of net sales, gross margin was 22.2%, reflecting a decline of 20.3 percentage points. This decrease was attributable to
substantially reduced revenues which resulted in a significant decline in factory utilization (to slightly above 40%) as compared to the prior year period. This negatively impacted gross margin, as we are experiencing less operating leverage of
fixed manufacturing costs. In response to these circumstances, we have executed several cost savings initiatives, including reducing our cost of procured materials and services, and executing a workforce reduction across our manufacturing
organization. On average, we had 22% fewer manufacturing and supply chain operations headcount during the first six months of 2009 versus 2008.

Selling, General and Administrative

Our selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $84 million, or 25%, in the
first half of 2009 compared to the prior year period. This decrease was the result of a coordinated effort to reduce costs across all selling, general and administration departmental functions and categories of expenses. We executed workforce
reductions and focused cost restructuring in the information technology, legal, sales and marketing functions. On average, we had 19% fewer selling, general and administrative headcount during the first six months of 2009 versus 2008. As a percent
of our net sales, our selling, general and administrative expenses increased 3.5 percentage points primarily due to lower net sales.

Research and
Development

Our research and development expense for the first half of 2009 decreased $116 million, or 20%, compared to the prior year
period. This decrease was the result of savings from an identified transformation plan including the restructuring of our participation in the IBM alliance (a jointly-funded research alliance created to develop 300-millimeter technologies), and the
exit of our MRAM business and some initial savings from the strategic realignment of our cellular handset business. On average, we had 12% fewer research and development headcount during the first six months of 2009 versus 2008. These savings were
partially offset by external acquisitions and internal organic investments in our remaining core businesses. As a percent of our net sales, our research and development expenses increased 7.5 percentage points due to lower net sales.

Amortization Expense for Acquired Intangible Assets

Amortization expense for acquired intangible assets related to developed technology, tradenames, trademarks and customer relationships decreased by $301 million in the first half of 2009 compared to prior year
period. The decrease was the result of a lower asset base following non-cash impairment charges recorded against these assets in the second half of 2008.

Reorganization of Businesses and Other

In connection with our intent to renew our focus on key market leadership positions
and given general market conditions, we implemented a series of restructuring actions beginning in the third quarter of 2008 to further streamline our cost structure and re-direct some research and development investments into growth markets. These
actions will reduce headcount in our supply chain, technology, sales, marketing and general and administrative functions. In the first half of 2009, we recorded $93 million in employee severance costs related to these actions, $7 million of non-cash
asset impairment charges, and $4 million of gains related to the sale and disposition of certain capital assets. We also recorded $12 million in charges in the first half of 2009 related to our Japanese subsidiarys pension plan. These charges
are related to certain termination benefits and settlement costs in connection with our plan to discontinue our manufacturing operations in Sendai, Japan in 2011 and other previously executed severance actions in Japan.

During the first half of 2008, we announced plans to consolidate manufacturing and administrative operations in order to streamline our global
organization and reduce costs. As a result, through an employee separation program we recorded charges of $21 million under reorganization of businesses and other for severance costs. In addition to these employee separation costs, we recorded $7
million in exit and other costs related primarily to these actions and an $8 million non-cash impairment charge related to our manufacturing facility located in Tempe, Arizona. We also recorded a $2 million reversal of previous accruals due to lower
than expected employee separation costs related to a prior year reorganization program.

As a result of a change in executive leadership in
the first half of 2008, we recorded in reorganization of businesses and other a $17 million non-cash charge for equity compensation expense as a result of the accelerated vesting of Class B Interests in connection with the execution of a separation
agreement with our former Chief Executive Officer. We also recognized $8 million in severance costs related to this separation and $1 million in compensation related to the retention of our current Chief Executive Officer.

During the second quarter of 2008, we finalized a grant related to our former research and manufacturing
alliance in Crolles, France. We recognized a benefit of $9 million for the grant in reorganization of businesses and other related to the portion of the grant for assets sold during the first half of 2008.

Gain on Extinguishment of Long-Term Debt

In the
first half of 2009, a $2,264 million gain on the Debt Exchange was recorded in other, net. Upon completion of the Debt Exchange, the carrying value of our outstanding long-term debt obligations on the Existing Notes declined by $2,853 million,
including $24 million of accrued PIK Interest. This decline was partially offset by the issuance of Incremental Term Loans with a carrying value of $540 million. We recorded $17 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the Incremental
Term Loans. We also recorded a $21 million pre-tax gain, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in connection with the repurchase of $29 million of our Fixed Rate Notes and $17 million of our Toggle Notes.

During the first half of 2008, we recorded a $16 million pre-tax gain, net in connection with the repurchase of $67 million of our Senior Subordinated
Notes, $10 million of our Fixed Rate Notes and $8 million of our Floating Rate Notes. (Terms defined and discussed in Note 4 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.)

Other Expense, Net

Other expense, net decreased $49
million in the first half of 2009 compared to the prior year period. Net interest expense in the first half of 2009 included interest expense of $308 million partially offset by interest income of $10 million. Net interest expense in the first half
of 2008 included interest expense of $369 million partially offset by interest income of $19 million. The $61 million decrease in interest expense over the prior year period was due to (i) savings related to a retirement of outstanding debt
during 2009, partially offset by an increase in our revolving credit facility in the fourth quarter of 2008 and the first quarter of 2009, and (ii) lower interest rates on our outstanding floating rate debt.

During the second quarter of 2008, in accordance with SFAS No. 133 we recognized a $14 million pre-tax gain in other, net related to the change in
fair value of our interest rate swaps. During the first quarter of 2008, in accordance with SFAS No. 133 we recognized a $25 million pre-tax loss in other, net related to the cumulative ineffective portion and subsequent change in fair value of
our interest rate swaps that are no longer classified as a cash flow hedge. During the first half of 2008, we also recorded a $12 million pre-tax gain in other, net as a result of the sale of all of the shares in one of our strategic investments
accounted for under the cost method.

Income Tax Expense

As of July 3, 2009, the estimated annual effective tax rate for 2009 is an income tax expense of less than 1%, excluding income tax expense of $11 million recorded for discrete events occurring in first half
of 2009. These discrete events primarily reflect income tax expense related to a valuation allowance associated with the deferred tax assets of one of our foreign subsidiaries. The impact of the valuation allowance is partially offset by the release
of income tax reserves related to foreign audit settlements.

During the first half of 2009, we recorded a $2,264 million net gain as a
result of the reduction in our outstanding long-term debt in connection with the Debt Exchange. We continue to be in an overall three year domestic cumulative loss position, inclusive of the cancellation of debt gain. A valuation allowance of $560
million was recorded on our domestic deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2008, so substantially all of the domestic tax expense related to the cancellation of debt income was offset by a beneficial release of the valuation allowance on our
domestic deferred tax assets. We anticipate paying some state income taxes in the U.S. resulting from the net debt extinguishment, although the amounts of the obligations are not expected to be material.

In 2009, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (the Act) was passed which grants temporary relief under the Delayed Recognition
of Cancellation of Debt Income (CODI) rules. The Act contains a provision that allows the taxpayer to elect a five-year deferral of CODI for debt reacquired in 2009, followed by recognition of CODI ratably over 2014 to 2018. The
provision applies for specified types of repurchases including the acquisition of a debt instrument for cash and the exchange of one debt instrument for another. If we applied such delayed recognition of CODI, it would result in a deferred tax
liability related to the amount of CODI delayed and could subject us to domestic cash income taxes in the future. We currently do not anticipate deferring CODI in connection with finalizing our Federal tax return in 2010. We also do not believe we
will have any federal cash income tax expense associated with our CODI.

##### Table of Contents

Our annual effective tax rate is less than the statutory 35% percent due to
(i) minimal domestic tax expense in our domestic earnings due to the utilization of deferred tax assets, which were subject to a valuation allowance and (ii) the mix of earnings and losses by taxing jurisdictions and foreign tax rate
differentials.

Reorganization of Businesses and Other

We have entered into plans to reduce our workforce, discontinue product lines, exit or refocus our business strategies and consolidate manufacturing and administrative operations in an effort to improve our
operational effectiveness, reduce costs and simplify our product portfolio. At each reporting date, we evaluate our accruals for exit costs and employee separation costs, which consist primarily of termination benefits (principally severance and
relocation payments), to ensure that our accruals are still appropriate. In certain circumstances, accruals are no longer required because of efficiencies in carrying out our plans or because employees previously identified for separation resigned
unexpectedly and did not receive severance or were redeployed due to circumstances not foreseen when the original plans were initiated. We reverse accruals to income when it is determined they are no longer required.

Reorganization of Business
Program

During the fourth quarter of 2008, we announced that we intend to renew our focus on key market leadership positions. In
connection with this announcement and given general market conditions, we have initiated a series of restructuring actions to streamline our cost structure and re-direct some research and development investments into growth markets
(Reorganization of Business Program). These actions include the wind-down of our cellular handset business, restructuring our participation in the IBM alliance (a jointly-funded research alliance), discontinuing manufacturing operations
at our East Kilbride, Scotland facility and our Sendai, Japan facility, and consolidating logistical and certain administrative operations. We incurred $106 million in severance and exit costs associated with the Reorganization of Business Program,
pension termination benefits, asset impairment charges and disposition activities in the first half of 2009 These actions will reduce headcount in our supply chain, technology, sales, marketing and general and administrative functions.

The following table displays a roll-forward from January 1, 2009 to July 3, 2009 of the employee separation and exit cost accruals
established related to the Reorganization of Business Program:

In the first half of 2009, we recorded severance costs in connection with our decision to exit our
manufacturing facility in Sendai, Japan based on progress made towards closure during the second quarter of 2009 and severance costs associated with the wind-down of our cellular handset business. The remainder of the reorganization costs consist
primarily of severance costs related to our ongoing Reorganization of Business Program.

We separated approximately 3,440 employees during
the first half of 2009. The $114 million used reflects cash payments made to employees separated as part of the Reorganization of Business Program through the first half of 2009. We will make additional payments to these separated employees and the
remaining approximately 1,150 employees through the first quarter of 2011.

During the third quarter of 2008, we also recorded exit and
other costs related to a strategic decision to restructure our participation in the IBM alliance, a jointly-funded research alliance among several semiconductor manufacturers which was formed to develop 300-millimeter technologies. We paid the
remaining $26 million of the related charge for this action during the second quarter of 2009.

Termination Benefits

We recorded $12 million in charges in the second quarter of 2009 related to our Japanese subsidiarys pension plan. These charges are related to certain termination benefits and settlement costs in connection
with our plan to discontinue our manufacturing operations in Sendai, Japan in 2011 and other previously executed severance actions in Japan.

Asset
Impairment Charges and Disposition Activities

During the first half of 2009, we recorded an additional $7 million of non-cash
impairment charges related primarily to certain other assets classified as held-for-sale as of July 3, 2009. During the first half of 2009, we also recorded gains of (i) $2 million associated with the disposition of certain equipment
formerly used in our cellular handset business, and (ii) $2 million in connection with the sale of a parcel of land at our Toulouse, France manufacturing facility.

Other Reorganization of Business Programs

In the first half of 2009, we reversed $2 million
of severance accruals related to reorganization of business programs initiated in prior periods. These reversals were due to a number of employees previously identified for separation who resigned and did not receive severance or were redeployed due
to circumstances not foreseen when original plans were approved. As of the end of the first half of 2009, we have $5 million of remaining severance, relocation and exit cost accruals associated with these programs. We expect to make the final
payments related to these programs by the end of 2009.

Six Months Ended June 27, 2008

Other Reorganization of Business Programs

In
the first half of 2008, we recorded $28 million of severance accruals and other exit costs related to reorganization of business programs initiated in prior to the third quarter of 2008. We also reversed $2 million of severance accruals related to
these earlier reorganization of business programs due to a number of employees previously identified for separation who either resigned and did not receive severance or were redeployed due to circumstances not foreseen when original plans were
approved. An additional $7 million of severance accruals were reversed to goodwill due to efficiencies achieved through the execution of a research and design center consolidation program and the redeployment of certain resources.

Executive Leadership Transition

During the
first half of 2008, $26 million was recorded in reorganization of businesses and other related to the change in executive leadership. Of this amount, $17 million was a non-cash charge for equity compensation expense as a result of the accelerated
vesting of certain Class B Interests in connection with the execution of a separation agreement with Michel Mayer, our former Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. We also recognized $8 million in severance costs related to
Mr. Mayers separation and $1 million in compensation related to the sign-on bonus for Richard Beyer, our current Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.

Crolles Manufacturing and Research Alliance

During the first half of 2008, we finalized a
grant related to our former research and manufacturing alliance in Crolles, France. We recognized a benefit of $9 million for the grant in reorganization of businesses and other related to the portion of the grant for assets sold during the first
half of 2008. We also recorded a benefit of $5 million to research and development expense in connection with the receipt of this grant.

Liquidity and
Capital Resources

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Of the $1,312 million of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments at July 3, 2009, $237 million was held by our U.S. subsidiaries and $1,075 million was held by our foreign subsidiaries. Repatriation
of some of these funds could be subject to delay and could have potential tax consequences, principally with respect to withholding taxes paid in foreign jurisdictions.

Operating Activities

We utilized $148 million of cash flow for operations in the first half of 2009 and generated $544 million of cash flow from operations in the first half of 2008. The decrease in cash flow provided by operations from
the prior year period is primarily attributable to our significant decline in revenues during 2009 and the first half of 2008 benefitting from the receipt of funds in connection with an updated arrangement with Motorola. Our days sales outstanding
increased to 41 days at July 3, 2009 from 38 days at December 31, 2008, primarily as a result of an increase in sales during the last two weeks of June 2009 versus the last two weeks of December 2008. Our days of inventory on hand
(excluding the impact of purchase accounting on inventory and cost of sales) increased to 104 days at July 3, 2009 from 93 days at December 31, 2008 as a result of a continued decrease in revenues. Days purchases outstanding increased to
37 days at July 3, 2009 from 36 days at December 31, 2008 primarily due to fluctuations in the timing of payments.

Investing Activities

Our net cash provided by (used for) investing activities was $430 million and $(163) million for the first half of 2009 and 2008,
respectively. Our investing activities are driven by investment of our excess cash, capital expenditures, strategic acquisitions and investments in other companies and sales of investments and businesses. Our capital expenditures were $28 million
and $159 million for the first half of 2009 and 2008, respectively, and represented 2% and 6% of net sales, respectively.

The increase in
the cash provided by investing activities in the first half of 2009 versus the prior year period was primarily the result of the generation of $473 million from the sale of our short-term investments in connection with our re-directing investments
in a wholly-owned money market fund to cash equivalent money market accounts. The other factor impacting our investing cash flows during the first half of 2008 were the proceeds from the sale of our property, plant and equipment located at the
300-millimeter wafer fabrication facility located in Crolles, France, where we ended a strategic development and manufacturing relationship with two other semiconductor manufacturers in the fourth quarter of 2007 and the utilization of $94 million
of cash during the first half of 2008 in connection with the acquisition of SigmaTel, Inc.

Financing Activities

Our net cash provided by (used for) financing activities was $104 million and $(95) million for the first half of 2009 and 2008, respectively. The
increase in cash provided by financing activities is attributable primarily to a $184 million draw down on the Revolver (as described below), partially offset by (i) the utilization of $24 million of cash to repurchase a portion of our Fixed
Rate Notes and our Toggle Notes (both as defined in Note 4 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements) and (ii) payments on our long-term debt, including the $24 million excess cash flow payment described later in this
section.

During the first half of 2008, we utilized $67 million to repurchase a portion of our outstanding Senior Subordinated Notes,
Fixed Rate Notes and Floating Rate Notes (all as defined in Note 4 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements) and $28 million to make additional long-term debt and capital lease payments.

Debt Exchange

On February 10, 2009, Freescale
invited eligible holders of each of its (i) Senior Floating Rate Notes due 2014 (Floating Rate Notes), (ii) 9.125%/9.875% Senior PIK-Election Notes due 2014 (Toggle Notes), (iii) 8.875% Senior Fixed Rate Notes
due 2014 (Fixed Rate Notes) and (iv) 10.125% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2016 (Senior Subordinated Notes) to participate as a lender in the issuance of new senior secured incremental term loans under the existing
Credit Facility (the Incremental Term Loans) in a transaction referred to as the Debt Exchange. The aggregate principal amount of Incremental Term Loans available to eligible holders in the invitations was $1 billion,
including the incremental term loans payable as compensation to certain of Freescales advisors. (The Floating Rate Notes, the Toggle Notes, the Fixed Rate Notes and the Senior Subordinated Notes are collectively referred to as the
Existing Notes and are discussed further in this Note.)

On March 10, 2009, Freescales invitation to participate in
the Debt Exchange expired for all Floating Rate Notes, Fixed Rate Notes and Senior Subordinated Notes. On March 24, 2009, Freescales invitation to participate in the Debt Exchange expired for all Toggle Notes. Through the Debt Exchange,
$2,829 million aggregate principal amounts of Existing Notes were retired, including $281 million of Floating Rate Notes, $957 million of Toggle Notes, $845 million of Fixed Rate Notes and $746 million of Senior Subordinated Notes. Based on the
principal amount of Floating Rate Notes, Fixed Rate Notes and Senior Subordinated Notes delivered and accepted, Freescale has issued approximately $665 million principal amount of Incremental Term Loans under the Incremental Amendment dated
March 17, 2009. On March 26, 2009, based on the principal amount of Toggle Notes validly delivered and accepted, Freescale has issued an additional $237 million principal amount of Incremental Term Loans. Furthermore, as compensation for
the arranger services, additional Incremental

Term Loans with a principal of $22 million were issued, for a total of approximately $924 million aggregate principal amount of Incremental Term Loans. At
July 3, 2009, the Incremental Term Loans are recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at a $376 million discount, which is subject to accretion to par value over the term of the restructured debt using the effective interest method.
The Incremental Term Loans were valued based upon the public trading prices of the Existing Notes exchanged immediately prior to the launch of the Debt Exchange.

Upon completion of the Debt Exchange, the carrying value of Freescales outstanding long-term debt obligations on the Existing Notes declined by $2,853 million, including $24 million of accrued PIK Interest (as
defined later in this section). This decline was partially offset by the issuance of Incremental Term Loans with a carrying value of $540 million. Freescale recorded $17 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the Incremental Term
Loans.

Credit Facility

At
July 3, 2009, Freescale, Holdings III, IV and V had a senior secured credit facility (Credit Facility) that included (i) a $3.5 billion term loan (Term Loan), (ii) the aforementioned Incremental Term Loans
and (iii) a revolving credit facility, including letters of credit and swing line loan sub-facilities, with a committed capacity of $690 million (Revolver), excluding a non-funding commitment attributable to Lehman Commercial Paper,
Inc. (LCPI), which filed a petition under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York on October 5, 2008. LCPI is a counterparty to the Revolver. LCPI has a
commitment in the amount of $60 million of the Revolver; but, we do not expect that borrowing requests will be honored by LCPI.

During the
first half of 2009, Freescale drew down $184 million, net of LCPI non-funding, from the Revolver. Freescale made this financial decision to further enhance its liquidity and net cash position. This improves our financial flexibility as we continue
to execute on our business plans.

Freescales debt agreements require additional payments from proceeds received upon certain asset
dispositions, excess cash flows and the incurrence or issuance of certain debt, as defined in the debt agreements. Based on our operating results for the year ended December 31, 2008, we made a mandatory prepayment in the
first half of 2009 based on excess cash flows of approximately $24 million.

The Term Loan will mature on December 1, 2013. The
Revolver will be available through December 1, 2012, at which time all outstanding principal amounts under the Revolver will be due and payable. Borrowings under the Credit Facility may be used for working capital purposes, capital
expenditures, investments, share repurchases, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes. At July 3, 2009, $3,389 million and $644 million were outstanding under the Term Loan and Revolver, respectively, and the Revolver had a remaining
capacity of $16 million, excluding the LCPI commitment and $30 million in outstanding letters of credit.

The Term Loan and Revolver bear
interest, at Freescales option, at a rate equal to a margin over either (i) a base rate equal to the higher of either (a) the prime rate of Citibank, N.A. or (b) the federal funds rate, plus one-half of 1%; or, (ii) a LIBOR
rate based on the cost of funds for deposit in the currency of borrowing for the relevant interest period, adjusted for certain additional costs. The interest rate on the Term Loan and the Revolver at July 3, 2009 was 2.06% and 2.31%,
respectively. The applicable margin for borrowings under the Revolver may be reduced subject to the attainment of certain leverage ratios. Freescale is also required to repay a portion of the outstanding Term Loan balance in quarterly installments
in aggregate annual amounts equal to 1% of the initial outstanding balance for the first six years and nine months after the Term Loan closing date, with the remaining balance due upon maturity. Freescale is also required to pay quarterly facility
commitment fees on the unutilized capacity of the Revolver at an initial rate of 0.50% per annum. The commitment fee rate may be reduced subject to our attaining certain leverage ratios. Freescale is also required to pay customary letter of
credit fees.

The Incremental Term Loans will mature on December 15, 2014. These loans are guaranteed by the same guarantors under the
existing Credit Facility agreement (see Note 4 in the December 31, 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion) and are secured by a security interest in all of the collateral for the obligations of Freescale and the guarantors under
the existing Credit Facility and related loan documents. The Incremental Term Loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 12.5% and a default rate of 14.5%, and interest on the Incremental Term Loans is payable quarterly in arrears. Freescale
is required to repay a portion of the outstanding Incremental Term Loan balance in quarterly installments in aggregate annual amounts equal to 1% of the initial outstanding balance (subject to reduction following prepayment of such Incremental Term
Loans as set forth in the existing Credit Facility agreement), with the remaining balance due upon maturity.

Existing Notes

Freescale had an aggregate principal amount of $2,927 million in senior notes outstanding at July 3, 2009, consisting of (i) $194 million Floating Rate Notes bearing interest at a rate, reset quarterly,
equal to 3-month LIBOR (which was 0.63% on July 3, 2008) plus 3.875% per annum, (ii) $556 million of Toggle Notes, (iii) $1,413 million of Fixed Rate Notes, and (iv) $764 million of Senior Subordinated Notes. Relative to our
overall indebtedness, the Existing Notes, rank in right of payment (i) equal to all senior unsecured indebtedness (ii) senior to all subordinated indebtedness (including the Senior Subordinated Notes), and (iii) junior to all secured
indebtedness (including the Credit Facility), to the extent assets secure that indebtedness. The Senior Subordinated Notes are unsecured senior subordinated obligations and rank junior in right of payment to our senior indebtedness, including
indebtedness under the Credit Facility and the other Existing Notes. The Existing Notes are governed by two Indentures dated as of December 1, 2006, as supplemented and amended.

In the second quarter of 2009, Freescale repurchased $29 million of its Fixed Rate Notes and $17 million of its Toggle Notes. Freescale used funds from
the short-term investment portfolio for the purchase and early retirement of these notes at a $21 million discount, net of $1 million in non-cash charges associated with the recognition of unamortized debt issuance costs. The redemption price
included accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the redemption date.

In 2008, Freescale elected to use the payment-in-kind
(PIK) feature of its outstanding Toggle Notes in lieu of making cash interest payments (PIK Interest) for the interest period ending on June 15, 2009. In connection with this election, on December 4, 2008, Freescale
delivered notice to The Bank of New York Mellon (formerly The Bank of New York), in its capacity as trustee under the Indenture governing the Toggle Notes, that, with respect to the interest that would be due on such notes on the June 15, 2009
interest payment date, it would make such interest payment by paying in kind at the PIK interest rate of 9.875% instead of paying interest in cash. As a result, Freescale issued a total of approximately $27 million of incremental Toggle Notes on
June 15, 2009. Freescale also elected to use the PIK feature of its outstanding Toggle Notes for the interest period ending on December 15, 2009. Accordingly, as of July 3, 2009, $3 million of accrued PIK Interest associated with the
Toggle Notes was classified as long-term debt.

In connection with the issuance of the Term Loan and Floating Rate Notes, Freescale also
entered into interest rate swap contracts with various counterparties as a hedge of the variable cash flows of our variable interest rate debt. Under the terms of the interest rate swap contracts, we have effectively converted $500 million of the
variable interest rate debt to fixed interest rate debt from December 1, 2009 through December 1, 2012. This amount excludes a LBSF swap arrangement with a notional amount of $400 million which was settled during the second quarter of 2009
at a $4 million gain. LBSF filed a petition under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York on October 3, 2008. In the first quarter of 2009, Freescale switched to
1-month LIBOR on the Term Loan in order to realize interest payment savings on decreasing interest rates.

On July 10, 2009, Freescale
entered into an interest rate cap contract with a counterparty as a hedge of the variable cash flows of our variable interest rate debt. Under the terms of the contract, Freescale has effectively hedged $200 million of its variable interest rate
debt at a cap rate of 2.75%. The cap will become effective on December 1, 2009 and will mature on December 1, 2012. Accordingly, after December 1, 2009, Freescale will continue to pay interest at a LIBOR-based rate on $200 million of
its variable interest rate debt, so long as the short term rate does not exceed 2.75%. If the LIBOR-based rate exceeds the cap rate in any given interest period, Freescale will subsequently receive a payment from its counterparty to ensure it pays
no more than 2.75%, net on the related variable interest rate debt.

Covenant Compliance

The Credit Facility and Indentures have restrictive covenants that limit the ability of our subsidiaries to, among other things, incur or guarantee
additional indebtedness or issue preferred stock; pay dividends and make other restricted payments; incur restrictions on the payment of dividends or other distributions from our restricted subsidiaries; create or incur certain liens; make certain
investments; transfer or sell assets; engage in transactions with affiliates; and, merge or consolidate with other companies or transfer all or substantially all of our assets. Under the Credit Facility and Indentures, Freescale must comply with
conditions precedent that must be satisfied prior to any borrowing, as well as ongoing compliance with specified affirmative and negative covenants. The Credit Facility and Indentures also provide for customary events of default, including failure
to pay any principal or interest when due, failure to comply with covenants and cross defaults or cross acceleration provisions. Freescale was in compliance with these covenants as of July 3, 2009.

Some of these covenants restrict us if we fail to meet financial ratios based on our level of profitability. The 2009 global economic
environment has resulted in lower operating profitability, causing four financial ratios (the total leverage ratio, the senior secured first lien leverage ratio, the fixed charge coverage ratio and the consolidated secured debt
ratio) to fall outside of the ranges set forth in the Credit Facility and Indentures. This does not result in any form of non-compliance with our



35

covenants contained within the Credit Facility and Indentures, but does impose certain of the restrictions discussed in the preceding paragraph, such as our
ability to transfer or sell assets; merge or consolidate with other companies; make certain investments; and incur additional indebtedness.

Credit
Ratings

As of July 3, 2009, our corporate credit ratings from Standard & Poors, Moodys and Fitch were B-,
Caa1 and CCC, respectively.

Other Indebtedness

During the third quarter of 2006, one of our foreign subsidiaries requested and received a draw from an existing Japanese yen-denominated revolving loan agreement to repay an intercompany loan. In the fourth quarter of 2008, the foreign
subsidiary drew down an additional $37 million under this revolving loan in order to enhance its cash position and liquidity. In the third quarter of 2009, we entered into an amended arrangement for this revolving loan balance, whereby we will make
quarterly payments of approximately $14 million beginning in the third quarter of 2009 and concluding in the fourth quarter of 2010. The land and buildings located at our Sendai, Japan manufacturing facility are pledged as collateral on this
revolving loan until the fourth quarter of 2010 when the loan is fully repaid. In addition, our land and buildings at our Sendai, Japan design center are pledged as collateral until the fourth quarter of 2009. Previously, the entire balance was
classified in notes payable and current portion of long-term debt and capital lease obligations on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet; however, in connection with the amended arrangement, $29 million has been reclassified as long-term debt. As
of July 3, 2009, $86 million was outstanding under this loan.

We are required to make debt service payments under the terms of our
debt agreements. The remaining obligated debt payments for 2009 as of July 3, 2009 are $51 million. Future obligated debt payments are $102 million in 2010, $44 million in 2011, $688 million in 2012, $3,276 million in 2013, $3,043
million in 2014 and $764 million thereafter.

EBITDA/Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted earnings before cumulative effect of accounting change, interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) is a
non-U.S. GAAP measure that we use to determine our compliance with certain covenants contained in the Credit Facility and the indentures governing the Existing Notes. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted to add back certain non-cash,
non-recurring and other items that are included in EBITDA and/or net earnings (loss), as required by various covenants in the indentures and the Credit Facility. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide
additional information to investors to demonstrate compliance with our financing covenants. Our ability to engage in activities such as incurring additional indebtedness, making investments and paying dividends is tied to ratios based on Adjusted
EBITDA.

Adjusted EBITDA does not represent, and should not be considered an alternative to, net earnings (loss), operating earnings
(loss), or cash flow from operations as those terms are defined by U.S. GAAP and does not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. While Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures are frequently used as measures of
operations and the ability to meet debt service requirements by other companies, our use of Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to such other similarly titled captions of other companies. The definition of Adjusted EBITDA in the indentures
and the Credit Facility allows us to add back certain charges that are deducted in calculating EBITDA and/or net earnings (loss). However, some of these expenses may recur, vary greatly and are difficult to predict. Further, our debt instruments
require that Adjusted EBITDA be calculated for the most recent four fiscal quarters. As a result, the measure can be disproportionately affected by a particularly strong or weak quarter. Further, it may not be comparable to the measure for any
subsequent four-quarter period or any complete fiscal year.

Contractual Obligations

Product purchase commitments associated with our strategic manufacturing relationships
include take or pay provisions based on volume commitments for work in progress and forecasted demand based on 18-month rolling forecasts, which are adjusted monthly. At July 3, 2009, our commitment is $32 million through October 2009.

Future Financing Activities

As
indicated in Trends in Our Business, we expect to experience continued pressure on our revenues in 2009 associated with the macroeconomic weakness. Our primary future cash needs on a recurring basis will be for working capital,
expenditures to maintain our existing capital levels and debt service obligations. In addition, we expect to spend approximately $100 million during the remainder of 2009 and the first half of 2010 and approximately $200 million in the first half of
2011 in connection with the Reorganization of Business Program. We believe that our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments balance as of July 3, 2009 of approximately $1,312 million and cash flows from operations will be sufficient
to fund our working capital needs, capital expenditures, restructuring plan and other business requirements for at least the next 12 months. We also supplemented our liquidity by drawing down $184 million under our Revolver on January 21, 2009.
Our ability to borrow under this Revolver is limited to $16 million after taking into account $30 million in outstanding letters of credit.

If our cash flows from operations are less than we expect or we require funds to consummate acquisitions of other businesses, assets, products or technologies, we may need to incur additional debt, sell or monetize certain existing assets
or utilize our cash and cash equivalents or short-term investments. We incurred significant indebtedness and utilized significant amounts of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and marketable securities in order to complete the Merger.
In the event additional funding is required, there can be no assurance that future funding will be available on terms favorable to us or at all.

As market conditions warrant, the Company and its major equity holders may from time to time repurchase debt securities issued by us, in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise. In the first half of

##### Table of Contents

2009, upon completion of the Debt Exchange, the face amount of our outstanding long-term debt obligations decreased by approximately $1,929 million. In
connection with the Debt Exchange, our expected annual cash interest expense is anticipated to decrease by approximately $140 million. Freescale also repurchased $29 million of its Fixed Rate Notes and $17 million of its Toggle Notes. Freescale used
funds from the short-term investment portfolio for the purchase.

As of July 3, 2009, our election to use the PIK feature of our
outstanding Toggle Notes in lieu of making cash interest payments was effective for the interest period ending on December 15, 2009. We will evaluate this option prior to the beginning of each eligible interest period, taking into account
market conditions and other relevant factors at that time. In connection with this election, we will make the interest payment due on the Toggle Notes on December 15, 2009 by paying in kind at the PIK interest rate of 9.875% instead of
paying interest in cash.

As discussed in Trends in Our Business, the 2009 global economic outlook will continue to adversely
impact our business and result in lower operating profitability. The maintenance of certain of our financial ratios is based on our level of profitability. The 2009 global economic environment has resulted in lower operating profitability,
causing four of our financial ratios (the total leverage ratio, the senior secured first lien leverage ratio, the fixed charge coverage ratio and the consolidated secured debt ratio) to fall outside of the ranges set forth in the Credit
Facility and Indentures, which will impose certain of the restrictions as discussed in Financing Activities.

Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements

We use customary off-balance sheet arrangements, such as operating leases and letters of credit, to finance our
business. None of these arrangements has or is likely to have a material effect on our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

Significant Accounting Policies and Critical Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance
sheet date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Our significant accounting policies and critical estimates are disclosed
in our December 31, 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K. No material changes to our significant accounting policies and critical estimates have occurred subsequent to December 31, 2008.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2009, the
FASB issued SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events (SFAS No. 165). SFAS No. 165 establishes the accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are
issued or are available to be issued. It requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date, that is, whether that date represents the date the financial statements were issued or
were available to be issued. We adopted SFAS No. 165 in the second quarter of 2009. There was no subsequent material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. See Note 1 to the accompanying condensed
consolidated financial statements for the related disclosure.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures
about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 161). SFAS No. 161 amends and expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 133. It requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for
using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. This statement is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. We adopted SFAS No. 161 in the first quarter of 2009. There was no subsequent material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements
 an amendment of ARB No. 51 (SFAS No. 160). SFAS 160 requires an entity to clearly identify and present ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the entity in the consolidated financial
statements within the equity section but separate from the entitys equity. It also requires the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of
the consolidated statement of income; changes in ownership interest be accounted for similarly, as equity transactions; and when a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary and the gain or
loss on the deconsolidation of the subsidiary be measured at fair value. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We adopted SFAS No. 160 in the first quarter of 2009.
There was no subsequent material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

##### Table of Contents

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business
Combinations (SFAS No. 141(R)). Under SFAS No. 141(R), an entity is required to recognize the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, contractual contingencies, and contingent consideration at their fair value on
the acquisition date. It further requires that acquisition-related costs be recognized separately from the acquisition and expensed as incurred, restructuring costs generally be expensed in periods subsequent to the acquisition date, and changes in
accounting for deferred tax asset valuation allowances and acquired income tax uncertainties after the measurement period impact income tax expense. In addition, acquired in-process research and development is capitalized as an intangible asset and
amortized over its estimated useful life. The adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) has changed our accounting treatment for business combinations on a prospective basis beginning in the first quarter of 2009. As referenced in Note 7 to the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, a portion of the income tax benefit recorded for discrete events occurring in the first quarter of 2009 included the release of income tax reserves related to foreign audit settlements, which
was accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 141(R).



|Item 3: | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
|------- | -----------------------------------------------------------

Excluding our foreign subsidiary loan balance discussed in Note 4 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the fair value of our long-term debt approximates $5,135 million at July 3, 2009, which has been
determined based upon quoted market prices; this compares to a carrying value of $7,462 million as of the same date. Since considerable judgment is required in interpreting market information, the fair value of the long-term debt is not necessarily
indicative of the amount which could be realized in a current market exchange. The fair value of our interest rate swap agreements was an obligation of $17 million at July 3, 2009. The fair value of our interest rate swaps was estimated based
on the yield curve at July 3, 2009. A 10% decrease in market rates would increase the fair value of our long-term debt by $21 million and increase the obligation under our interest rate swaps by $1 million.

A significant variation of the value of the U.S. dollar against the principal currencies that have a material impact on us could result in a
favorable impact on our net income in the case of an appreciation of the U.S. dollar, or a negative impact on our net income if the U.S. dollar depreciates relative to these currencies. Currency exchange rate fluctuations affect our
results of operations because our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, in which we receive the major part of our revenues, while we incur a significant portion of our costs in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Certain significant
costs incurred by us, such as manufacturing labor costs, selling, general and administrative expenses are incurred in the currencies of the jurisdictions in which our operations are located.

In order to reduce the exposure of our financial results to the fluctuations in exchange rates, our principal strategy has been to balance as much as
possible the proportion of sales to our customers denominated in U.S. dollars with the amount of purchases from our suppliers denominated in U.S. dollars. In order to further reduce our exposure to U.S. dollar exchange rate
fluctuations, we have entered into foreign currency hedge agreements related to the currency and the amount of expenses we expect to incur in jurisdictions in which our operations are located. No assurance can be given that our hedging transactions
will prevent us from incurring higher foreign currency-denominated manufacturing costs when translated into our U.S. dollar-based accounts in the event of a weakening of the U.S. dollar on the non-hedged portion of our costs and expenses.
See Note 5, Risk Management, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

At
July 3, 2009, we had net outstanding foreign exchange contracts not designated as accounting hedges with notional amounts totaling $114 million. The fair value of these forward contracts was a net unrealized gain less than $1 million at
July 3, 2009. Forward contract gains (losses) of $4 million and $3 million for the second quarter of 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $(4) million and $4 million for the first half of 2009 and 2008, respectively, were recorded in other, net in
the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations related to our realized and unrealized results associated with these foreign exchange contracts. Management believes that these financial instruments should not subject us to undue risk due to
foreign exchange movements because gains and losses on these contracts should offset losses and gains on the assets, liabilities, and

transactions being hedged. The following table shows, in millions of United States dollars, the notional amounts of the most significant net foreign exchange
hedge positions for outstanding foreign exchange contracts not designated as accounting hedges:

At July 3, 2009, we had net outstanding foreign exchange contracts designated as cash flow
hedges with notional amounts totaling approximately $16 million, which are accounted for at fair value. The fair value of these contracts was a net unrealized loss of less than $1 million at July 3, 2009. Management believes that
these financial instruments will not subject us to undue risk due to foreign exchange movements because gains and losses on these contracts should offset losses and gains on the forecasted expenses being hedged. We have provided $3 million in
collateral to one of our counterparties in connection with our foreign exchange hedging program as of July 3, 2009.

Foreign exchange
financial instruments that are subject to the effects of currency fluctuations, which may affect reported earnings, include financial instruments and other financial instruments which are not denominated in the functional currency of the legal
entity holding the instrument. Derivative financial instruments consist primarily of forward contracts. Other financial instruments, which are not denominated in the functional currency of the legal entity holding the instrument, consist primarily
of cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts payable and receivable. The fair value of the foreign exchange financial instruments would hypothetically decrease by $38 million as of July 3, 2009, if the U.S. dollar were to appreciate against
all other currencies by 10% of current levels. This hypothetical amount is suggestive of the effect on future cash flows under the following conditions: (i) all current payables and receivables that are hedged were not realized, (ii) all
hedged commitments and anticipated transactions were not realized or canceled, and (iii) hedges of these amounts were not canceled or offset. We do not expect that any of these conditions will be realized. We expect that gains and losses on the
derivative financial instruments should offset gains and losses on the assets, liabilities and future transactions being hedged. If the hedged transactions were included in the sensitivity analysis, the hypothetical change in fair value would be
immaterial. The foreign exchange financial instruments are held for purposes other than trading.

Reference is made to the
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk discussion within Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our December 31, 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Other than
the change to the fair value of our long-term debt, we experienced no significant changes in market risk during the six months ended July 3, 2009. However, we cannot assure you that future changes in foreign currency rates or interest rates
will not have a significant effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.



|Item 4: | Controls and Procedures.
|------- | ------------------------

(a)Evaluation of
disclosure controls and procedures. Under the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report (the Evaluation Date).
Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to the Company, including our
consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and
(ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b)Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that
occurred during the quarter ended July 3, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - Other Information



|Item 1: | Legal Proceedings.
|------- | ------------------

Intellectual property matters,
legal proceedings and environmental matters were previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. Those matters have been updated below to the extent that there have been any changes through our filing
date of July 24, 2009. We are a defendant in various lawsuits, including intellectual property suits, and are subject to various claims which arise in the normal course of business. The Company records an associated liability when a loss is probable
and the amount is reasonably estimable.

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of
business, including tort and contractual disputes, claims before the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and other employee grievances, and intellectual property litigation and infringement claims. Intellectual property litigation
and infringement claims could cause us to incur significant expenses or prevent us from selling our products. Under agreements with Motorola, Freescale must indemnify Motorola for certain liabilities related to our business incurred prior to our
separation from Motorola.

A purported class action, Howell v. Motorola, Inc., et al., was filed against Motorola and certain of its
directors, officers and employees in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois (Illinois District Court) on July 21, 2003, alleging breach of fiduciary duty and violations of the Employment Retirement
Income Security Act (ERISA). The complaint alleged that the defendants had improperly permitted participants in the Motorola 401(k) Plan (Plan) to purchase or hold shares of common stock of Motorola because the price of
Motorolas stock was artificially inflated by a failure to disclose vendor financing to Telsim in connection with the sale of telecommunications equipment by Motorola. The plaintiff sought to represent a class of participants in the Plan for
whose individual accounts the Plan purchased or held shares of common stock of Motorola from May 16, 2000 to the present, and sought an unspecified amount of damages. On September 30, 2005, the Illinois District Court dismissed
the second amended complaint filed on October 15, 2004. Plaintiff filed an appeal to the dismissal on October 27, 2005. On March 19, 2007, the appeals court dismissed the appeal. Three new purported lead plaintiffs intervened in the
case, and filed a motion for class certification seeking to represent Plan participants for whose individual accounts the Plan purchased and/or held shares of Motorola common stock from May 16, 2000 through December 31, 2002. On
September 28, 2007, the Illinois District Court granted the motion for class certification but narrowed the requested scope of the class. Motorola has sought leave to appeal in the appellate court and reconsideration in the Illinois District
Court of certain aspects of the class certification order. On October 25, 2007, the Illinois District Court modified the scope of the class, granted summary judgment dismissing two of the individually-named defendants in light of the narrowed
class, and ruled that the judgment as to the original named plaintiff, Howell, would be immediately appealable. The class as certified includes all Plan participants for whose individual accounts the Plan purchased and/or held shares of Motorola
common stock from May 16, 2000 through May 14, 2001 with certain exclusions. On February 15, 2008, Motorola and its codefendants filed motions for summary judgment on all claims asserted by the class. On October 23, 2008,
the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit heard Motorolas interlocutory appeal of the District Courts order certifying the class. On June 17, 2009, the district court granted defendants motions for
summary judgment on all claims. This ruling rendered moot the interlocutory appeals current before the Seventh Circuit. The plaintiffs have not indicated whether they would appeal the June 17, 2009 ruling of the district
court. As a result of the terms of its separation from Motorola, it is possible that Freescale could be held responsible to Motorola for a portion of any judgment or settlement in this matter. We continue to assess the merits of this action as
well as the potential effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

On April 17, 2007, Tessera
Technologies, Inc. (Tessera) filed a complaint against Freescale, ATI Technologies, Inc., Motorola, Inc., Qualcomm, Inc., Spansion, Inc., Spansion LLC, and STMicroelectronics N.V. (collectively, the Respondents) in the
International Trade Commission (ITC) requesting the ITC enter an injunction barring the importation of any product containing a device that infringes two identified patents related to ball grid array (BGA) packaging
technology. On April 17, 2007, Tessera filed a parallel lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas against ATI, Freescale, Motorola and Qualcomm claiming an unspecified amount of monetary damage as
compensation for the alleged infringement of the same Tessera patents. Tesseras patent claims relate to BGA packaging technology. On February 26, 2008, the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) in the ITC proceeding granted the
Respondents motion to stay the ITC proceeding pending the completion of the reexamination by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office of the two patents asserted by Tessera in the ITC proceeding. On March 27, 2008, the ITC reversed this
decision and ordered the reinstatement of the ITC proceeding, which occurred during the week of July 14, 2008. On December 1, 2008, the ALJ issued his determination finding in favor of the Respondents and recommending that no injunction
barring importation of the Respondents products be entered. In accordance with its rights, Tessera petitioned the ITC to review the ALJs determination on December 15, 2008. On May 20, 2009 the ITC issued a final order finding
that all the Respondents infringe on Tesseras asserted patents, and granted Tesseras request for a Limited Exclusion Order prohibiting the importation of Respondents infringing products. Freescale appealed the ITCs decision
to the Federal Court of Appeals. During the pendency of the appellate process, we are taking all necessary actions to comply with the Limited Exclusion Order. We continue to assess potential effects on our consolidated financial position,
results of operations and cash flows.

On March 25, 2009, a group of senior lenders under the Credit Facility, including ING Prime Rate
Trust (ING), filed a complaint against Freescale and certain unnamed unsecured debtholders in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York. The suit challenges our right to issue the new Incremental Term Loans under the
Credit Facility to certain holders of the Existing Notes, thereby allowing those unsecured debtholders to become secured lenders with loans that are equal in priority to the plaintiffs. The plaintiffs claim that this action has devalued their
loans and put the repayment of their loans at additional risk. The complaint asserts that our representation and warranty that Freescale has not experienced a Material Adverse Effect (MAE) since the closing of the Credit Facility, which
we made as a prerequisite to the issuance of new Incremental Term Loans, was untrue when made. The plaintiffs argue that Freescale has suffered a MAE between 2006 and the issuance of the new Incremental Term Loans. The plaintiffs filed an amended
complaint on May 20, 2009 adding additional plaintiffs and removing the unnamed unsecured debtholders as defendants. Among other things, the plaintiffs are seeking monetary damages suffered as a result of the issuance of new Incremental Term
Loans. Freescale filed a motion to dismiss the suit on June 19, 2009. We believe that these claims made by the lenders are without merit and intend to vigorously defend this action.

|Item 1A: | Risk Factors.
|-------- | -------------

Set forth below and elsewhere in
this report and in other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission are risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to materially differ from the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained in
this report and in other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Some of the risk factors were previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. They have been updated
to include information as of July 3, 2009. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, may also impair our business operations.

Our operating results may be adversely impacted if economic conditions impact the financial viability of our customers, distributors, or supplier, particularly in
the automotive industry.

We regularly review the financial performance of our customers, distributors and suppliers. However,
global economic conditions may adversely impact the financial viability of and increase the credit risk associated with our customers, distributors or suppliers. Customer insolvencies in key industries most affected by the economic downturn, such as
the automotive industry, or the financial failure of a large customer or distributor, an important supplier, or a group thereof, could have an adverse impact on our operating results and could result in us not being able to collect our accounts
receivable balances. For instance, bankruptcies at Delphi, Visteon and Lear have challenged our abilities to collect pre-petition account receivable balances.

For a description of additional risk factors affecting our business and results of operations, refer to our December 31, 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
