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) means 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 April 3, 2009 is approximately $135 million and $10 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 April 3, 2009, December 31, 2008 and for the three months ended April 3, 2009 and March 28, 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 April 3, 2009 and for all periods presented. Certain amounts reported in previous periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

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 months ended April 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.

Information

Gain on Extinguishment of Long-Term Debt

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. (Refer to Note 4 for term definitions and discussion.)

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 (both as defined and discussed in Note 4).

Cash paid for interest was $90 million and $64 million for the three months ended April 3,
2009 and March 28, 2008, respectively. In the first quarter of 2009, cash paid for interest included $39 million of interest paid in connection with the Debt Exchange.

During the first quarter of 2009 and 2008, in accordance with SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as
amended (SFAS No. 133) we recognized a $1 million and $25 million pre-tax loss, respectively, in other, net related to the ineffective amount of our interest rate swaps that are no longer classified as a cash flow hedge. In
the first quarter of 2008, we recorded $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.

Debt Exchange

On February 10, 2009, Freescale invited eligible holders of each of our (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 24, 2009, Freescales invitation to participate in the Debt Exchange expired for all Existing 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, we have 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, we have 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. The Incremental Term Loans are recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at a $384 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 our 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. We recorded $17 million of debt issuance costs
in connection with the Incremental Term Loans.

Credit Facility

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

##### Table of Contents

Our 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 based on
excess cash flows of approximately $24 million in the first quarter of 2009.

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 April 3, 2009, $3,398 million and $644 million was outstanding under the Term Loan and Revolver, respectively, and the Revolver had a remaining
capacity of $19 million, excluding the LCPI commitment and $27 million 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 April 3, 2009 was 2.26 % and 2.52%,
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 $2,958 million in senior notes outstanding at April 3, 2009, consisting of (i) $194 million
Floating Rate Notes bearing interest at a rate, reset quarterly, equal to three-month LIBOR (which was 1.32% on April 3, 2008) plus 3.875% per annum, (ii) $558 million of Toggle Notes, (iii) $1,442 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 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 will be due on such notes on the June 15, 2009 interest payment date, they will make such interest payment by paying in
kind at the PIK interest rate of 9.125% instead of paying interest in cash. As a result, we will accrue approximately $25 million of PIK interest as long-term debt through June 15, 2009. After the June 15, 2009 payment date, interest will
accrue on the PIK portion of the Toggle Notes at a PIK interest rate of 9.875%. As of April 3, 2009, $15 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
through December 1, 2009 or December 1, 2012. This amount excludes a Lehman Brothers Special Financing, Inc. (LBSF) swap arrangement with a notional amount of $400 million. 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 March 2009, we elected to switch 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 Holdings III, IV, V, Freescale and 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-faults or cross-escalation provisions. Freescale was in compliance with these covenants as of April 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 three
of our financial ratios, the total 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; and incur additional indebtedness.

Credit Ratings

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

(5) Risk Management

Foreign Currency Risk

At April 3, 2009 and December 31, 2008, we had net outstanding foreign exchange contracts not designated as accounting
hedges with notional amounts totaling approximately $186 million and $199 million, respectively, which are accounted for at fair value. The fair value of the forward contracts was a net unrealized loss of $2 million and a net unrealized gain of
$9 million at April 3, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. Forward contract (losses) gains of $(8 million) and $1 million were recorded in the first quarter of 2009 and 2008, respectively, 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, liabilities, and transactions 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:

At April 3, 2009 and December 31, 2008, we had net outstanding foreign exchange
contracts designated as cash flow hedges with notional amounts totaling approximately $33 million and $186 million, respectively, which are accounted for at fair value. The fair value of these contracts was a net unrealized loss of $4 million
and $7 million at April 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.

Interest Rate Risk

We use interest rate swap agreements to assist in managing the floating rate portion of our debt portfolio. As of
April 3, 2009, we have effectively fixed our interest rate on $500 million of our variable rate debt through December 1, 2009. During 2008, we entered into two additional interest rate swaps, each with a notional amount of $100 million,
respectively. 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 counterparty 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 (1.26% at April 3, 2009) from the counterparties. The net receipts or payments from the interest rate swap
agreements are recorded in other expense, net. As these interest rate swaps do not meet the requirements of a cash flow hedge, all related gains and losses will be recognized in other, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Therefore, in the first quarter of 2009 and 2008, in accordance with SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended (SFAS No. 133) we recognized a $1 million and a $25 million
pre-tax loss, respectively, in other, net related to the ineffective portion of our interest rate swaps that were no longer classified as a cash flow hedge.

The remaining effective portion of the interest rate swaps at April 3, 2009 is approximately $2 million, net of tax, and is included in accumulated other comprehensive loss. This amount will be recognized as
either interest expense or other expense, as determined by the interest rate election on the Term Loan, through December 2009. If certain terms of the Term Loan change, if the Term Loan is extinguished or if the interest rate swap agreements
are terminated prior to maturity, this amount may be recognized sooner in other, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

(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 and restricted stock unit (RSU) 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.

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 our common stock. 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 April 3, 2009, we had approximately $33 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 2006 Options was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing method. The
assumptions used in the model are outlined in the following table:

During the first quarter of 2009, we granted performance-based Deferred Stock Units (DSUs) to
certain executives of the Company 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 the date of grant. The performance DSUs, to the extent earned, cliff vest on the fourth anniversary of the grant date.

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. 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. Vested RSUs and DSUs are considered outstanding until shares have been issued.

Our total stock and equity-based compensation
expense is presented below:

(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 April 3,
2009, the estimated annual effective tax rate for 2009 is an income tax expense of less than 1%, excluding an income tax benefit of $13 million recorded for discrete events occurring in the first quarter of 2009. These discrete events
include interest expense associated with income tax reserves, release of income tax reserves related to foreign audit settlements, domestic income tax benefit related to the release of a valuation allowance on R&D credits which may be monetized,
and income tax expense recognized on the debt extinguishment gain in connection with the Debt Exchange.

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 income taxes in the U.S. resulting from the net debt extinguishment, although the amounts of the obligations are not expected to be material.

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

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 various 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. Those motions are currently
pending before the District Court. On February 22, 2008, the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit agreed to hear Motorolas interlocutory appeal of the District Courts order certifying the class. This hearing
occurred on October 23, 2008, and the parties are awaiting the decision. 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. The ITC has decided to review the ALJs determination and is currently scheduled to issue its final determination by May 20, 2009. We continue to assess the merits of
both of these actions as well as the potential effect 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 a 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 of 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. Among other things, the plaintiffs are seeking (i) monetary damages suffered as a result of our issuance of new
Incremental Term Loans, (ii) rescission of the Debt Exchange, and (iii) equitable subordination of the new Incremental Term Loans. Our deadline to file a responsive pleading is May 12, 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, are typically limited to a duration of 24 months or less, and/or amounts 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 April 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 April 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.

Three Months Ended April 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 restructuring our participation in the IBM alliance (a jointly-funded research
alliance), discontinuing manufacturing operations at our East Kilbride, Scotland facility by May 2009 and consolidating logistical and certain administrative operations. We accrued $21 million in severance costs associated with the Reorganization of
Business Program in the first quarter 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 April 3, 2009 of the employee separation accruals established related to
the Reorganization of Business Program:

In the first quarter of 2009, we separated approximately 1,300 employees. The $46 million used
reflects cash payments made to employees separated as part of the Reorganization of Business Program through the first quarter of 2009. We will make additional payments to these separated employees and the remaining approximately 2,000 employees
through the first quarter of 2010.

##### Table of Contents

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 expect to pay the remaining amount by the second quarter
of 2009.

Asset Impairment Charges

During the first quarter of 2009, we recorded an additional $4 million of non-cash impairment charges related to certain other assets classified as held-for-sale as of April 3, 2009.

Other Reorganization of Business Programs

In
the first quarter of 2009, we reversed $1 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 quarter of 2009, we have $8 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 the second quarter of 2009.

Three Months Ended
March 28, 2008

Executive Leadership Transition

During the first quarter 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.

(10) Subsequent Events

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 of Freescale. 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. 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.

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 months ended
April 3, 2009 and March 28, 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 seven 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 greatly 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 since the three months ended
March 28, 2008. We anticipate continued pressure on our utilization and gross margin in the near term 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 weaker demand with respect to the
automotive industry as well as with other of our end markets to continue to persist, which 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 previous levels. In addition, the semiconductor industry is consolidating, and nowhere is this more evident than in the cellular handset market. The cellular
handset growth rate has slowed, and the challenge to fund research and development and higher levels of integration is becoming increasingly costly.

On October 2, 2008, we announced plans to sharpen our strategic focus on growth markets and key market leadership positions. In addition, we announced that we were exploring strategic options for our cellular
handset business and intended to complete a sale, joint venture agreement or other transformation in the coming months. We also updated an arrangement with our customer, Motorola, on September 26, 2008, whereby Motorola agreed to provide
certain consideration in exchange for us eliminating their remaining minimum purchase commitments. Our cellular handset product group revenues decreased 70% in the first quarter of 2009 versus the first quarter of 2008.

We have also been significantly impacted by the continued weakness in the U.S. automotive market, as light vehicle production by the Big 3 U.S.
automakers in the first quarter of 2009 declined approximately 55% versus the prior year quarter. Our Microcontroller Solutions and Radio Frequency, Analog and Sensor revenues in the first quarter of 2009 declined by 40%, as compared to the first
quarter of 2008. We expect these conditions to persist into future quarters in 2009 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 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 which we realized the benefits of during the first quarter of 2009, and we expect such benefits to continue.

##### Table of Contents

On April 22, 2009, we announced actions to align the Companys spending with its prior decision
to exit the cellular handset business. The plan, which encompasses employment reductions and certain severance costs, was finalized and approved by the Board of Directors on April 17, 2009 and is expected to be completed 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.
Restructuring charges for these actions are estimated to be approximately $70 million in cash severance costs.

Total severance and related
cash requirements associated with these actions, inclusive of the costs associated with completing the exit of the cellular handset business, total approximately $270 million with corresponding annualized savings of approximately $700 million
realized by 2010. We have paid approximately $68 million of the cash restructuring charges in connection with the actions taken through April 3, 2009, resulting in approximately $280 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 have also initiated a formal
consultation with employees at our Toulouse facility. The proposal to close the facility will be evaluated through our Toulouse Workforce Council. The Board of Directors approved this plan on April 17, 2009, and we expect this plan to be
completed by the end of 2011. We estimate the costs of this plan 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 April 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.

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 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.

##### Table of Contents

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 $840 million and $879 million in the first quarter of 2009 decreased 40% and 38%, respectively, compared to the prior year quarter. We experienced lower net sales in almost all product segments as a result of the termination of certain
minimum purchase commitments of our cellular products by Motorola, decreasing production in the global automotive industry, and decreased demand from our distribution supply chain customers for consumer and industrial. These decreases were partially
offset by increased non product revenue from intellectual property sales. Intellectual property revenue increased $33 million in the first quarter of 2009, as compared to the prior year quarter, to 6% as a percentage of net sales. Distribution sales
approximated 18% of our total net sales and fell by 35% compared to the prior year quarter. Distribution inventory was 14.1 weeks of net sales at April 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 April 3, 2009 and March 28, 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 33% of our total net sales in the first quarter of 2009 and 2008, respectively. Demand for our microcontroller products is driven by the automotive, consumer, industrial and computer
peripherals markets. In the first quarter of 2009, Microcontroller Solutions net sales declined by $212 million, or 46%, primarily as a result of production cuts in the U.S. automotive market. 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 19% of our total net sales in the first 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 $41 million, or 15%, in the first 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. 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 22% and 18% of our total net sales in the first 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 first quarter of 2009 decreased by $75
million, or 29%, compared to the prior year quarter 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 that we are exiting our cellular handset business. Cellular Products, which includes baseband processors and power management integrated
circuits, represented 11% and 23% of our total net sales in the first 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.
Because of this, our cellular handset revenues for the first quarter of 2009 decreased 70% 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 11% and 7% of our total net sales in
the first 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 $14 million, or 14%, in the first quarter of 2009 compared to the prior year quarter primarily as a result of a $39 million, or 60%, decrease in sales to other semiconductor
companies, partially offset by a $33 million increase in intellectual property revenue.

Gross Margin

In the first quarter of 2009, our gross margin decreased $416 million compared to the prior year quarter. As a percentage of net sales, gross margin was
21.0%, reflecting a decline of 21.1 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 reaction to these circumstances, we have executed several cost savings initiatives, including reducing our externally-sourced wafer production, reducing our cost of procured materials and
services, and executing a workforce reduction across our manufacturing organization.

Selling, General and Administrative

Our selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $29 million, or 17%, in the first quarter of 2009 compared to the prior year quarter. This
decrease was the result of a concerted company-wide drive and execution of a specifically identified plan to reduce costs across all SG&A departmental functions and categories of expenses. We executed workforce reductions and focused cost
restructuring in the information technology, legal, sales and marketing functions. As a percent of our net sales, our selling, general and administrative expenses increased 4.4 percentage points primarily due to lower net sales.

Research and Development

Our research and
development expense for the first quarter of 2009 decreased $34 million, or 12%, in the first 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), the exit of our MRAM business and some initial savings from the strategic realignment of our cellular handset
business. 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 9.2 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 $150 million in the first 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

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 implemented a series of restructuring actions in the first quarter of 2009 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 quarter of 2009, we accrued $21 million in employee severance costs related to these actions and a non-cash asset impairment charge of $4 million. We expect this quarters initiative to generate $35 million to $40 million in annualized
net cost savings by the end of the first quarter of 2010. In the first quarter of 2009, we also reversed $1 million of severance accruals related to reorganization of business programs initiated in prior periods.

During the first quarter 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 sign-on bonus for our current Chief Executive Officer.

Merger Expenses

Merger expenses were $2 million in the first quarter of 2008 and consisted primarily of accounting, legal and other professional fees.

Gain on Extinguishment of Long-Term Debt

In the first quarter of 2009, a $2,264 million gain on the
Debt Exchange (as defined and discussed in Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements) 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. (Refer to the Financing Activities section of Liquidity and Capital Resources for term definitions and discussion.)

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 (both as defined and discussed in Note 4).

Other Expense, Net

Other expense, net decreased $28 million in the first quarter of 2009 compared to the prior year quarter. Net interest expense in the first quarter of
2009 included interest expense of $173 million partially offset by interest income of $6 million. Net interest expense in the first quarter of 2008 included interest expense of $189 million partially offset by interest income of $7 million. The $16
million decrease in interest expense over the prior year period was due to (i) savings related to a retirement of outstanding debt during 2008, 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. In 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. This loss was partially offset by 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 Benefit

As of April 3, 2009, the estimated annual effective tax rate for 2009 is an income tax expense of less than 1%, excluding an income
tax benefit of $13 million recorded for discrete events occurring in the first quarter of 2009. These discrete events include interest expense associated with income tax reserves, release of income tax reserves related to foreign audit
settlements, domestic income tax benefit related to the release of a valuation allowance on R&D credits which may be monetized, and income tax expense recognized on the debt extinguishment gain in connection with the Debt Exchange.

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 income
taxes in the U.S. resulting from the net debt extinguishment although the amounts of the obligations are not expected to be material.

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 restructuring our participation in the IBM alliance (a jointly-funded research alliance), discontinuing manufacturing operations
at our East Kilbride, Scotland facility by May 2009 and consolidating logistical and certain administrative operations. We accrued $21 million in severance costs associated with the Reorganization of Business Program in the first quarter of 2009.
These actions will reduce headcount in our supply chain, technology, sales and marketing and general and administrative functions.

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

In the first quarter of 2009, we separated approximately 1,300 employees. The $46 million used
reflects cash payments made to employees separated as part of the Reorganization of Business Program through the first quarter of 2009. We will make additional payments to these separated employees and the remaining approximately 2,000 employees
through the first quarter of 2010.

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 expect to pay the remaining amount by the second quarter
of 2009.

Asset Impairment Charges

During the first quarter of 2009, we recorded an additional $4 million of non-cash impairment charges related to certain other assets classified as held-for-sale as of April 3, 2009.

Other Reorganization of Business Programs

In
the first quarter of 2009, we reversed $1 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 quarter of 2009, we have $8 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 the second quarter of 2009.

Three Months Ended
March 28, 2008

Executive Leadership Transition

During the first quarter 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.

##### Table of Contents

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Of the $1,422 million of cash and cash equivalents and short-term
investments at April 3, 2009, $450 million was held by our U.S. subsidiaries and $972 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 $80 million of cash flow for operations in the first quarter of 2009 and generated $474 million of cash flow from operations in the first
quarter of 2008. The decrease in cash flow provided by operations from the prior year quarter is primarily attributable to the first quarter 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 April 3, 2009 from 38 days at December 31, 2008, primarily as a result of an increase in sales during the last two weeks of March 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 April 3, 2009 from 93 days at December 31, 2008 as a result of a continued decrease in revenues. Days purchases
outstanding increased to 42 days at April 3, 2009 from 36 days at December 31, 2008 primarily due to fluctuations in the timing of payments.

Investing Activities

Our net cash used for investing activities was $16 million and $276 million for the first
quarter 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 $15 million and $85 million for the first quarter of 2009 and 2008, respectively, and represented 2% and 6% of net sales, respectively.

The decrease in the cash used in our investing activities in the first quarter of 2009 versus the prior year quarter was primarily the result of a decrease in both capital expenditures and the first quarter of 2008
including proceeds from the sale of a portion 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.

Financing Activities

Our net cash provided by (used for) financing activities was $142 million and $(30) million for the first quarter of 2009 and 2008, respectively. The
increase in cash provided by financing activities is attributable to a $184 million draw down on the Revolver (as described below), partially offset by payments on our long-term debt, including the $24 million excess cash flow payment described
later in this section. In the first quarter of 2008, we utilized $17 million to repurchase a portion of our outstanding Senior Subordinated Notes and Fixed Rate Notes and $13 million to make additional long-term debt and capital lease payments.

Debt Exchange

On February 10,
2009, Freescale invited eligible holders of each of our (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 24, 2009, Freescales invitation to participate in
the Debt Exchange expired for all Existing 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, we have 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, we have 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. The Incremental Term Loans are recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at a $384 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.

##### Table of Contents

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 (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.
We recorded $17 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the Incremental Term Loans. The resulting approximate $2.3 billion decline in our outstanding long-term debt obligations is expected to reduce our annual cash interest expense by
approximately $140 million.

Credit Facility

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

Our 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 based on excess cash flows of approximately $24 million in the first quarter of 2009.

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 April 3, 2009, $3,398 million and $644 million was outstanding under the Term Loan and Revolver, respectively, and the
Revolver had a remaining capacity of $19 million, excluding the LCPI commitment and $27 million 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 April 3, 2009 was
2.26 % and 2.52%, 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 $2,958 million in senior notes outstanding at April 3, 2009, consisting of
(i) $194 million Floating Rate Notes bearing interest at a rate, reset quarterly, equal to three-month LIBOR (which was 1.32% on April 3, 2008) plus 3.875% per annum, (ii) $558 million of Toggle Notes, (iii) $1,442 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.

##### 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 will be due on such notes on the June 15, 2009 interest payment date, they will make such
interest payment by paying in kind at the PIK interest rate of 9.125% instead of paying interest in cash. As a result, we will accrue approximately $25 million of PIK interest as long-term debt through June 15, 2009. After the June 15,
2009 payment date, interest will accrue on the PIK portion of the Toggle Notes at a PIK interest rate of 9.875%. As of April 3, 2009, $15 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 through December 1, 2009 or December 1, 2012. This amount excludes a Lehman Brothers Special Financing, Inc. (LBSF) swap arrangement with a notional amount of $400 million. 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 March 2009, we elected to switch 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 Holdings III, IV, V, Freescale and 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-faults or cross-escalation provisions. Freescale was in compliance with these covenants as of April 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 three
of our financial ratios, the total 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; and incur additional indebtedness.

Credit Ratings

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

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.

The following is a reconciliation of net loss, which is a U.S. GAAP measure of our operating results, to Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in our debt
agreements.

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, capital expenditures and debt service obligations. In addition, we expect to spend
approximately $200 million during the remainder of 2009 in connection with the Reorganization of Business Program. We believe that our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments balance as of April 3, 2009 of approximately $1,422 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 $19 million after taking into account all draws through the end of January 2009.

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 quarter of 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.

As of December 31, 2008, we elected to use the PIK feature of our outstanding Toggle Notes in lieu of making cash interest payments for the interest period ending on June 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 June 15, 2009
by paying in kind at the PIK interest rate of 9.125% instead of paying interest in cash. After the June 15, 2009 payment date, interest will accrue on the PIK portion of the Toggle Notes at a rate of 9.875%.

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 three of our financial
ratios, the total 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 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.

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.
|------- | -----------------------------------------------------------

The fair value of our long-term debt approximates $2,799 million at April 3, 2009, which has been determined based upon quoted market prices; this compares to a carrying value of $7,496 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 $23 million at April 3, 2009, excluding the LBSF swap arrangement. The fair value of our interest rate swaps was estimated based on the yield curve at April 3, 2009. A 10% decrease in market rates would increase the fair
value of our long-term debt by $7 million and increase the obligation under our interest rate swaps by $1 million.

##### Table of Contents

At April 3, 2009, we had net outstanding foreign exchange contracts not designated as accounting
hedges with notional amounts totaling $186 million. The fair value of these forward contracts was a net unrealized loss of $2 million at April 3, 2009. 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:



|                  |  |              |   
|----------------- |  | ------------ | --
|Buy (Sell)        |  | April 3,2009
|Euro              |  | $            | 61
|Malaysian Ringgit |  | $            | 48
|British Pound     |  | $            | 28
|Japanese Yen      |  | $            | 11
|Singapore Dollar  |  | $            | 8 
|Israeli Shekel    |  | $            | 8 

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 $39 million as of April 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 and our derivative contracts,
we experienced no significant changes in market risk during the three months ended April 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 April 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.
|------- | ------------------

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 various 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

##### Table of Contents

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. Those motions are currently pending before the District Court. On February 22, 2008, the
United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit agreed to hear Motorolas interlocutory appeal of the District Courts order certifying the class. This hearing occurred on October 23, 2008, and the parties are awaiting the
decision. 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. The ITC has decided to review the ALJs determination
and is currently scheduled to issue its final determination by May 20, 2009. We continue to assess the merits of both of these actions as well as the potential effect 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 a 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 of 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. Among other things, the plaintiffs
are seeking (i) monetary damages suffered as a result of our issuance of new Incremental Term Loans, (ii) rescission of the Debt Exchange, and (iii) equitable subordination of the new Incremental Term Loans. Our deadline to file a
responsive pleading is May 12, 2009. We believe that these claims made by the lenders are without merit and intend to vigorously defend this action.

Environmental Matters

Our operations are subject to a variety of environmental laws and regulations in each of the
jurisdictions in which we operate governing, among other things, air emissions, wastewater discharges, the use, handling and disposal of hazardous substances and wastes, soil and groundwater contamination, and employee health and safety. As with
other companies engaged in similar industries, environmental compliance obligations and liability risks are inherent in many of our manufacturing and other activities. In the United States, certain environmental remediation laws, such as the federal
Superfund law, can impose the entire cost of site clean-up, regardless of fault, upon any single potentially responsible party, including companies that owned, operated, or sent wastes to a site. In some jurisdictions, environmental
requirements may become more stringent in the future which could affect our ability to obtain or maintain necessary authorizations and approvals or could result in increased environmental compliance costs. We believe that our operations are in
compliance in all material respects with current requirements under applicable environmental laws.

Motorola was identified as a
potentially responsible party in the past, and has been engaged in investigations, administrative proceedings, and/or cleanup processes with respect to past chemical releases into the environment. Freescale agreed to indemnify Motorola for certain
environmental liabilities related to its business, including matters described below. Potential future liability at such sites (excluding costs spent to date) may adversely affect our results of operations.

52nd Street Facility, Phoenix, AZ. In 1983, a trichloroethane leak from a solvent tank led
to the discovery of chlorinated solvents in the groundwater underlying a former Motorola facility located on 52nd Street in Phoenix, Arizona, which resulted in the facility and adjacent areas being placed on the federal National Priorities List of
Superfund sites. The 52nd Street site was subsequently divided into three operable units by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), which is overseeing site investigations and cleanup actions with the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality
(ADEQ). To date, two separate soil cleanup actions have been completed at the first operable unit (Operable Unit One), for which Motorola received letters stating that no further action would be required with respect to the soils. We
also implemented and are operating a system to treat contaminated groundwater in Operable Unit One and prevent migration of the groundwater from Operable Unit One. The EPA has not announced a final remedy for Operable Unit One and it is therefore
possible that costs to be incurred at this operable unit in future periods may vary from our estimates. In relation to the second operable unit, the EPA issued a record of decision in July 1994, and subsequently issued a consent decree, which
required Motorola to design a remediation plan targeted at containing and cleaning up solvent groundwater contamination down gradient of Operable Unit One. That remedy is now being implemented by Freescale and another potentially responsible party
pursuant to an administrative order. The EPA and ADEQ are currently performing a remedial investigation at the third operable unit (Operable Unit Three) to determine the extent of groundwater contamination. A number of additional
potentially responsible parties, including Motorola, have been identified in relation to Operable Unit Three. Because this investigation is in its early stages, we cannot predict at this time the extent to which we may be held liable for cleanup at
Operable Unit Three or whether that liability would be material.

56th Street Facility, Phoenix, AZ. In 1985, the EPA
initiated an inquiry concerning the former Motorola facility located on 56th Street in Phoenix, Arizona following the discovery of organic compounds in certain local area wells. Motorola completed several remedial actions at this site including soil
excavation and cleanup. We subsequently undertook voluntary negotiations with ADEQ, who assumed primary responsibility for this matter in 2004 under the states Water Quality Assurance Revolving Fund Program.
