 WHEREAS, Freescale Semiconductor Holdings I, Ltd. a Bermuda limited company (the “Company”) desires to
establish an employee share purchase to provide employees of the Company and employees of subsidiaries designated by the Company with an opportunity to purchase common shares of the Company through offerings of options at a discount so as to further
incent them to work for the continued success of the Company and its subsidiaries; 
 NOW THEREFORE, the Company hereby
establishes the Freescale Semiconductor Holdings I, Ltd. Employee Share Purchase Plan, effective January 1, 2012, as follows: 
  

	Section 1.	Purpose, Share Commitment and Intent. 

 (a) Purpose. The purpose of the Plan is to provide Employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries that are selected by the Company to participate in the Plan an opportunity to purchase Shares
through periodic offerings of options to purchase Shares at a discount and strengthen the commitment of Employees to the Company and Subsidiaries, motivate Employees to faithfully and diligently perform their responsibilities and attract and retain
competent and dedicated persons. 
 (b) Share Commitment. The aggregate number of Shares authorized to be sold pursuant
to Options granted under the Plan is 6,020,000, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4(g). In computing the number of Shares available for grant, any Shares relating to Options which are granted, but which subsequently lapse, are
cancelled or are otherwise not exercised by the final date for exercise, shall be available for future grants of Options. 
 (c)
Intent. It is the intention of the Company to have the Plan qualify as an “employee share purchase plan” under section 423 of the Code. Therefore, the provisions of the Plan are to be construed in a manner that is consistent with
the requirements of section 423 of the Code. 
  

	Section 2.	Definitions. 

 For
purposes of the Plan, the following terms shall be defined as set forth below: 
 (a) “Account” means the
bookkeeping account maintained by the Administrative Committee that reflects the amount of payroll deductions credited on behalf of a Participant under the Plan. 
 (b) “Administrative Committee” means committee appointed to administer the Plan, which shall be the Committee or another committee consisting of not less than two directors of the Company
appointed by the Board, each of whom shall qualify as non-employee directors within the meaning of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation section 240.16b-3, and in the absence of such committee, the Board. 







 (c) “Authorized Leave of Absence” means a bona fide leave of absence from
service with the Company or a Subsidiary if the period of the leave does not exceed 90 days, or, if longer, so long as the individual’s right to reemployment with the Company or a Subsidiary is guaranteed either by statute or contract.

incentive compensation, bonuses, and other special payments, fees, allowances or extraordinary compensation.

total combined voting power of all classes of shares of the Employer Corporation or of any Subsidiary. An individual is considered to own any shares that are owned directly or indirectly by or for his brothers and sisters (whether by whole or
half-blood), spouse, ancestors and lineal descendants. For purposes of determining whether an Employee is a Five Percent Owner, an Employee is considered to own shares that the Employee may purchase under outstanding options (including incentive
stock options, nonqualified stock options, options granted under the Plan or any other stock options). Further, for purposes of determining whether an Employee is a Five Percent Owner, the rules of section 424 of the Code (relating to attribution of

its shareholders, partners, or beneficiaries. The determination of the percentage of the total combined voting power of all classes of shares of the Company or any Subsidiary that are owned by an individual is made by comparing the voting power or
value of the shares owned (or treated as owned) by the individual to the aggregate voting power of all shares actually issued and outstanding immediately after the grant of the Option to the individual. The aggregate voting power or value of all
shares actually issued and outstanding immediately after the grant of the Option does not include the voting power or value of treasury shares or shares authorized for issue under outstanding options held by the individual or any other person.

	Section 3.	Eligibility. 

 (a)
General Requirements. Subject to Section 3(c), each Employee of each Participating Corporation who is not excluded from participation pursuant to Section 3(b) is eligible to participate in a given Offering if the individual is in
the employ of a Participating Corporation on the Grant Date; provided that an Employee hired during an Offering Period will be eligible to participate in the next Offering. For purposes of this Section 3(a), the existence of the employment
relationship between an individual and a Participating Corporation will be determined under Department of Treasury Regulation section 1.421-1(h). Participation in the Plan by any Employee is voluntary. 

(b) Exclusions From Participation. Subject to Section 3(c), under each Offering Options will be granted to all Employees of
all Participating Corporations, except that one or more of the following categories of Employees may, at the discretion of the Administrative Committee, be excluded from coverage under an Offering: 

(1) Persons Employed Less Than Two Years. Employees who have been employed less than two years (or a lesser period of time) as of
the Grant Date may be excluded from an Offering, provided that the exclusion is applied in an identical manner to all Employees of every Participating Corporation whose Employees are granted Options under the Offering. 

(2) Persons Customarily Employed Less Than 20 Hours Per Week. Employees whose customary employment is 20 hours or less per week
(or a lesser number of hours per week as may be specified in writing by the Administrative Committee) as of the Grant Date may be excluded from an Offering, provided that the exclusion is applied in an identical manner to all Employees of every
Participating Corporation whose Employees are granted Options under the Offering. 
 (3) Persons Customarily Employed for
Not More Than Five Months During a Calendar Year. Employees whose customary employment is for not more than five months in any calendar year as of the Grant Date (or a lesser number of months as may be specified in writing by the Administrative
Committee) may be excluded from an Offering, provided that the exclusion is applied in an identical manner to all Employees of every Participating Corporation whose Employees are granted Options under the Offering. 

(4) Persons Who Are Highly Compensated Employees. Employees who are Highly Compensated Employees as of the Grant Date may be
excluded from an Offering. Alternatively, Employees who are Highly Compensated Employees with compensation above a certain level as of the Grant Date may be excluded from an Offering. Alternatively, Employees who are both Highly Compensated
Employees and officers or subject to the disclosure requirements of section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of the Grant Date may be excluded from an Offering. Any exclusion relating to Highly Compensated Employees must be applied in

 5 








 (5) Certain Residents of Foreign Jurisdictions. Employees who are residents of a
foreign jurisdiction (without regard to whether they are also citizens of the United States or resident aliens within the meaning of section 7701(b)(1)(A) of the Code) may be excluded from an Offering if (1) the grant of an Option under the
Offering to a citizen or resident of the foreign jurisdiction is prohibited under the laws of such jurisdiction or (2) compliance with the laws of the foreign jurisdiction would cause the Offering to violate the requirements of section 423 of
the Code. 
 (6) Default Exclusions From Participation. Unless the Administrative Committee specifies in writing
different exclusions are applicable with respect to a given Offering, the following persons shall be excluded from participation in an Offering: (1) Employees whose customary employment is 20 hours or less per week and (2) Employees who
are residents of a foreign jurisdiction (without regard to whether they are also citizens of the United States or resident aliens within the meaning of section 7701(b)(1)(A) of the Code) if (a) the grant of an Option under the Offering to a
citizen or resident of the foreign jurisdiction is prohibited under the laws of such jurisdiction or (b) compliance with the laws of the foreign jurisdiction would cause the Offering to violate the requirements of section 423 of the Code.

 (7) Use of Exclusions Other Than Default Exclusions From Participation. If the Administrative Committee determines to
apply exclusions from participation with respect to a given Offering that are different than the default exclusions specified in paragraph (f) of this Section 3(b), such exclusions shall be specified in writing. Any such exclusions from
participation shall be consistent with the provisions of this Section 3(b). 
 (c) Limitations Upon Participation by
Certain Shareholders. No Employee shall be granted an Option to the extent that the Option would cause the Employee to be a Five Percent Owner immediately after the grant. Accordingly, an Employee who is a Five Percent Owner immediately prior to
the Date of Grant for an Offering shall not be granted an Option for such Offering. An Employee who would become a Five Percent Owner immediately after the grant of an Option only as a result of the grant of the Option shall be granted an Option to
purchase no more than the number of whole Shares would not cause him to become a Five Percent Owner. 
  

	Section 4.	Options. 

 (a) Terms of
an Offering. The terms of an Offering shall be established by the Administrative Committee. The terms shall be set forth in writing and communicated to eligible Employees prior to the Grant Date for the Offering. The terms of an Offering shall
include (1) a designation of the Participating Corporations, (2) the identification of any exclusions from participation applicable to the Offering (which exclusions must be permitted under Section 3(b)), (3) the Option Period,
and (4) the Option Price. Offerings may be consecutive and overlapping, and the terms of each Offering need not be identical provided that the terms of the Plan and the Offering together satisfy the requirements of this Section 4(a) and
Department of Treasury Regulations issued under section 423 of the Code. 
 (b) Grant of Option. Effective as of the Grant
Date of each Offering, the Company shall grant an Option to each Participant which shall be exercisable on the Exercise 

  
 6 








 
Date through funds accumulated by the Participant through payroll deductions made during the Offering Period. Each Option grant is subject to the availability of a sufficient number of Shares
reserved for purchase under the Plan. In the event there is an insufficient number of shares reserved for purchase under the Plan, the number of shares purchased shall be adjusted as provided in Section 4(h). 

(c) Maximum Number of Shares Subject to Option. An Option granted to an Employee for any Offering shall be for that number of
whole Shares equal to the least of the number of whole Shares that may be purchased during the Offering Period (1) at the Option Price with the amount credited to the Participant’s Account on the Exercise Date, (2) under limitations
established by the Administrative Committee or the Committee pursuant to Section 4(d), (3) under the limitation set forth in Section 4(e) or (4) without causing the Employee to become a Five Percent Owner. The number of Shares
that may be purchased under an Option shall be subject to adjustment under Section 4(g) and Section 4(h). 
 (d)
Formula or Specific Share Limitation Established by the Company. The Administrative Committee may establish and announce to Participants prior to an Offering a maximum number of Shares that may be purchased by a Participant during the
Offering Period. The Administrative Committee or the Committee may specify that the maximum amount of Shares that a Participant may purchase under an Offering is determined on the basis of a uniform relationship to the total compensation or the
basic or regular rate of compensation, of all Employees. 
 (e) Annual $25,000 Limitation. No Employee will be permitted
to purchase Shares under all Qualified Employee Share Purchase Plans of the Employer Corporation and its Subsidiaries at a rate which exceeds $25,000 in fair market value of the Shares (determined at the time the Option is granted) for each calendar
year in which any option granted to the Employee is outstanding at any time. This limitation shall be applied taking into account the rules set forth in Department of Treasury Regulation section 1.423-2(i) (or a successor regulation). Accordingly,
in applying the limitation set forth in this Section 4(e), (1) the right to purchase Shares under an option accrues when the option (or any portion thereof) first becomes exercisable during the calendar year, (2) the right to purchase
Shares under an option accrues at the rate provided in the option, but in no case may such rate exceed $25,000 of fair market value of such Shares (determined at the time such option is granted) for any one calendar year and (3) a right to
purchase Shares that has accrued under one option granted pursuant to the Plan may not be carried over to any other option. 

(f) Equal Rights and Privileges. All Employees who are granted Options under an Offering must have equal rights and privileges
within the meaning of section 423 of the Code and Department of Treasury Regulation section 1.423-2(f). An Offering will not fail to satisfy the requirements of this Section 4(f) if, in order to comply with the laws of a foreign jurisdiction,
the terms of an Option granted under the Offering to citizens or residents of such foreign jurisdiction (without regard to whether they are also citizens of the United States or resident aliens within the meaning of section 7701(b)(1)(A) of the
Code) are less favorable than the terms of Options granted under the Offering to Employees who are resident in the United States. 

  
 7 








 (g) Adjustments of Options. In the event of any (1) merger, amalgamation,
consolidation, reclassification, recapitalization, spin-off, spin-out, repurchase or other reorganization or corporate transaction or event, (2) ordinary or special dividend (whether in the form of cash, Shares or other property), share split
or reverse share split, (3) combination or exchange of Shares, (4) other change in corporate structure, or (5) any other transaction, distribution or action, which, in any such case the Administrative Committee determines, in its sole
discretion, affects the Shares such that an adjustment is appropriate, the total number of Shares authorized to be committed to the Plan, the number of Shares subject to each outstanding Option, the Option Price applicable to each Option, and/or the
consideration to be received upon exercise of each Option shall be appropriately adjusted by the Administrative Committee or the Committee. In addition, the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, have authority to provide for (a) the
acceleration of the Exercise Date of outstanding Options or (b) the conversion of outstanding Options into cash or other property to be received in certain of the transactions specified in this paragraph above upon the completion of the
transaction. 
 (h) Insufficient Number of Shares. If the number of Shares reserved for purchase for any Option Period is
insufficient to cover the number of shares which Participants elect to purchase during such Option Period, then the number of Shares which each Participant has a right to purchase on the Exercise Date shall be reduced to the number of Shares which
the Administrative Committee shall determine by multiplying the number of Shares reserved under the Plan for such Option Period by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Shares which the Participant elected to purchase during the
Option Period and the denominator of which shall be the total number of Shares which all Participants elected to purchase during such Option Period. 
  

	Section 5.	Payroll Deductions. 

 (a)
Authorization of Payroll Deductions. For an Employee to participate during a given Offering Period, he must elect to participate in the Offering by authorizing deductions from his Base Compensation prior to the beginning of the Offering
Period in accordance with procedures established by the Administrative Committee or the Committee. An Employee who does not authorize payroll deductions from his Base Compensation with respect to a given Offering shall be deemed to have elected to
not participate in the Offering. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrative Committee or the Committee, the Participant’s payroll deductions shall be limited to 15 percent of his Base Compensation. Subject to a Participant’s right
to discontinue payroll deductions as set forth in Section 5(c) and Section 6, a Participant may not, during any Offering Period, change his percentage of payroll deduction for that Offering Period. A Participant may not make additional
payments to the Participant’s Account. 
 (b) Payroll Deductions Continuing. A Participant’s payroll deduction
authorization may remain in effect for all ensuing Offering Periods until changed by the Participant, subject to Section 5(a), in accordance with procedures established by the Administrative Committee or the Committee. 

  
 8 








 (c) Right to Stop Payroll Deductions. A Participant shall have the right to
discontinue the Participant’s payroll deduction authorization in accordance with procedures established by the Administrative Committee or the Committee. 
 (d) Accounting for Funds. As of each payroll deduction period, the Participating Corporation shall cause to be credited to the Participant’s Account in a ledger established for that purpose
the funds withheld from and attributable to the Participant’s cash compensation for that period. No interest shall be credited to the Participant’s Account at any time. The obligation of the Participating Corporation to the Participant for
this Account shall be a general corporate obligation and shall not be funded through a trust nor secured by any assets which would cause the Participant to be other than a general creditor of the Participating Corporation. 

(e) Participating Corporation’s Use of Funds. All payroll deductions received or held by a Participating Corporation may be
used by the Participating Corporation for any corporate purpose, and the Participating Corporation shall not be obligated to segregate such payroll deductions. 
 (f) Return of Funds. Except as specified herein, as soon as administratively practicable after the expiration of an Offering Period, payroll deductions that are not used to purchase Shares during
such Offering Period will be refunded to the Participants without interest. In accordance with procedures established by the Administrative Committee or the Committee, a Participating Corporation may be permitted to apply a Participant’s unused
payroll deductions to purchase additional Shares during a subsequent Offering Period, but only if the amount so applied does not exceed the value of a fractional share that the Participant could not purchase during the preceding Offering Period
(because purchases of fractional shares are not permitted under the Plan). 
  

	Section 6.	In Service Withdrawal, Termination or Death. 

 (a) In Service Withdrawal. A Participant may, at any time on or before 15 days prior to the Exercise Date, or such other date as shall be selected by the Administrative Committee or the Committee
from time to time, elect to withdraw all of the funds then credited to the Participant’s Account by giving notice in accordance with the rules established by the Administrative Committee or the Committee. The amount elected to be withdrawn by
the Participant shall be paid to the Participant as soon as administratively feasible. Any election by a Participant to withdraw the Participant’s cash balance under the Plan terminates the Participant’s right to exercise the
Participant’s Option on the Exercise Date and the Participant’s entitlement to elect any further payroll deductions for the then-current Offering Period. If the Participant wishes to participate in any future Offering Period, he must file
a new payroll deduction election within the time frame required by the Administrative Committee or the Committee for participation for that Offering Period. 
 (b) Termination of Employment Prior to the Exercise Date. Except as specified in Section 6(d) and Section 6(e), if a Participant’s employment with the Company and all Subsidiaries is
terminated for any reason, the Option granted to the Participant for that Offering Period shall lapse. If a Participant is on an Authorized Leave of Absence, for purposes 

  
 9 








 
of the Plan, the Participant’s employment with the Company and all Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be terminated on the later of the
91st day of such leave or the date through which the
Participant’s employment is guaranteed either by statute or contract. The Participant’s funds then credited to the Participant’s Account shall be returned to the Participant as soon as administratively feasible. 

(c) Termination of Employment due to Death. If a Participant’s employment with the Company and all Subsidiaries is terminated
due to death, the Participant’s Beneficiary shall be refunded all of the funds then credited to the Participant’s Account as of the date of the Participant’s death. 

(d) Termination of Employment Due to Retirement Prior to the Exercise Date. If a Participant’s employment with the Company
and all Subsidiaries is terminated due to the Retirement of the Participant, the Participant shall withdraw all of the funds then credited to the Participant’s Account as of the date of the Participant’s termination date. 

(e) Termination as a Result of a Disposition of Assets, a Division or an Entity or a Plant Closing. A Participant whose employment
with his Employer is terminated as a result of a disposition of assets, a division or an entity or as a result of a plant closing may, at his election by written notice to the Administrative Committee, either (1) exercise his Option as of the
date of his termination of employment, in which event the Employer shall apply the amount accrued under the Plan at that time to the purchase at the Option Price of Shares or (2) request payment of the Participant’s prior payroll
deductions made under the Plan at that time, in which event the Employer promptly shall make such payment, and thereupon the Participant’s interest in unexercised Options under the Plan shall terminate. If the Participant elects to exercise his
Option, the date of his termination of employment shall be deemed to be the Exercise Date for the purpose of computing the amount of the Option Price of the Shares. As determined by the Administrative Committee, a Participant shall be deemed to have
terminated his employment with all Employers (A) as a result of a disposition of assets, a division or an entity if such employment is terminated coincident with and as a result of the disposition, by the Employer, the Company or their
subsidiaries or Affiliates, of assets, a division or any other business entity (regardless of form) in connection with a sale, exchange, merger or other business transaction, or (B) as a result of a plant closing if such employment is
terminated coincident with and as a result of a significant manufacturing plant closing by the Employer, but not as a result of mere district changes or layoffs. 
  

	Section 7.	Exercise of Option. 

 (a)
Purchase of Shares. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, on the Exercise Date of the applicable Offering Period for an Offering, each Participant’s Account shall be used to purchase the maximum number of whole Shares that can be
purchased at the Option Price for that Offering. If in any Offering the total number of Shares to be purchased by all Participants exceeds the number of Shares committed to the Plan, then each Participant shall be entitled to purchase only the
Participant’s pro rata portion of the Shares remaining available under the Plan based on the balances in each Participant’s Account as of the Exercise Date. After the purchase of all Shares available on the Exercise Date, all Options
granted for the Offering to the extent not used are terminated because no Option shall remain exercisable after the Exercise Date. 

  
 10 









 (b) Accounting for Shares. After the Exercise Date of each Offering, a report shall
be given to each Participant stating the amount of the Participant’s Account, the number of Shares purchased and the Option Price. 
 (c) Issuance of Shares. The Administrative Committee may determine in its discretion the manner of delivery of the Shares purchased under the Plan, which may be by electronic account entry into new
or existing accounts, delivery of Shares certificates or any other means as the Administrative Committee, in its discretion, deems appropriate. The Administrative Committee may, in its discretion, hold the Shares certificate for any Shares or cause
it to be legended in order to comply with the securities laws of the applicable jurisdiction, or should the Shares be represented by book or electronic account entry rather than a certificate, the Administrative Committee may take such steps to
restrict transfer of the Shares as the Administrative Committee considers necessary or advisable to comply with applicable law. 
  

	Section 8.	Administration. 

 (a)
General. The Plan shall be administered under the direction of the Administrative Committee who shall have the authority to administer the Plan and to make and adopt rules and regulations not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan or
the Code. 
 (b) Delegation. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Administrative Committee may delegate to one
or more Employees the some or all of its authority over the administration of the Plan. The Administrative Committee may appoint agents to assist it in administering the Plan. 
 (c) Quorum and Majority Action. A majority of the Administrative Committee constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business. The vote of a majority of the members present at any meeting shall
decide any question brought before that meeting. In addition, the Administrative Committee may decide any question by a vote, taken without a meeting, of a majority of its members via telephone, computer, fax or any other media of communication.

 (d) Standard of Judicial Review of Committee Actions. The Administrative Committee has full and absolute discretion in
the exercise of its authority under the Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any action taken, or ruling or decision made by the Administrative Committee in the exercise of any of its powers and authority under the Plan shall be final and
conclusive as to all parties other than the Company, including without limitation all Participants and their beneficiaries, regardless of whether the Administrative Committee or one or more of its members may have an actual or potential conflict of
interest with respect to the subject matter of the action, ruling, or decision. No final action, ruling, or decision of the Administrative Committee shall be subject to de novo review in any judicial proceeding; and no final action, ruling, or
decision of the Administrative Committee may be set aside unless it is held to have been arbitrary and capricious by a final judgment of a court having jurisdiction with respect to the issue. 

  
 11 










	Section 9.	Participation in Plan By Other Subsidiaries. 

 (a) Participation Procedure. The Company, acting through the Committee or the Administrative Committee, shall designate the Subsidiaries of the Company that may participate in a given Offering. A
Subsidiary that is selected to participate in an Offering shall provide the Company all information required by the Company in order to administer the Plan. 
 (b) No Joint Venture Implied. Neither the participation in the Plan or an Offering by a Subsidiary nor any act performed by it in relation to the Plan shall create a joint venture or partnership
relation between it and the Company or any other Subsidiary. 
  

	Section 10.	Termination and Amendment of the Plan. 

 (a) Termination. The Company may, by action of the Board or the Committee, terminate the Plan at any time and for any reason. The Plan shall automatically terminate upon the purchase by
Participants of all Shares committed to the Plan, unless the number of Shares committed to the Plan is increased by the Committee or the Board and approved by the shareholders of the Company. Upon termination of the Plan, as soon as administratively
feasible there shall be refunded to each Participant the remaining funds in the Participant’s Account. The termination of the Plan shall not affect the current Options already outstanding under the Plan to the extent there are Shares committed,
unless the Participants agree otherwise. 
 (b) Amendment. The Board or the Committee has the right to modify, alter or
amend the Plan at any time and from time to time to any extent that it deems advisable, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any amendment to the Plan deemed necessary to ensure compliance with section 423 of the Code.
The Board or the Committee may suspend the operation of the Plan for any period as it may deem advisable. However, no amendment or suspension shall operate to reduce any amounts previously allocated to a Participant’s Account, reduce a
Participant’s rights with respect to Shares previously purchased and held on the Participant’s behalf under the Plan or adversely affect the current Option a Participant already has outstanding under the Plan without the Participant’s
agreement. Any amendment changing the aggregate number of Shares to be committed to the Plan and any other change for which shareholder approval is required under regulations issued by the Department of Treasury must be approved by the shareholders
of the Company in order to be effective. 
  

	Section 11.	Miscellaneous. 

 (a)
Plan Not An Employment Contract. The adoption and maintenance of the Plan is not a contract between any Participating Corporation and its Employees which gives any Employee the right to be retained in its employment. Likewise, it is not
