TABLE OF CONTENTS
This filing contains only preliminary communications made before the commencement of an
anticipated tender offer to allow eligible employees (excluding executive officers and directors)
of Motorola, Inc. (the “Company”) that hold certain eligible stock options to exchange their stock
options for replacement options (the “Option Exchange Program”).
Attached as Exhibit 99.1 is an email dated May 13, 2009 from Greg A. Lee, Senior Vice
President, Human Resources of the Company, announcing the launching of the Option Exchange Program
on May 14, 2009.
The Company has not initiated the Option Exchange Program. If the Option Exchange Program is
commenced, the Company will file a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Persons who may be eligible to participate in the Option Exchange
Program should read the Tender Offer Statement and other related materials when they become
available because they will contain important information about the Option Exchange Program. The
Company will deliver the Option Exchange Program documents to all eligible employees free of charge
when the Option Exchange Program commences, and the Company’s stockholders and option holders will
be able to obtain these written materials and other documents filed by the Company with the SEC
free of charge from the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
