Brown, Co- Chief Executive Officer, Motorola, Inc. and Chief Executive Officer, Broadband Mobility Solutions, and Sanjay K Jha, Co-Chief Executive Officer, Motorola, Inc. and Chief Executive Officer, Mobile Devices, (together the “Co-CEO’s”) sent to all the employees of the Company on May 4, 2009 announcing that the Company’s stockholders voted to approve allowing the Company to offer a one time voluntary Option Exchange Program; (ii) a transcript of a video by the Co-CEO’s (“Co-CEO’s Video”) sent to all the employees of the Company on May 4, 2009 announcing that the Company’s stockholders voted to approve allowing the Company to offer a one time voluntary Option Exchange Program; (iii) an email communication, dated March 3, 2009, from the Co-CEOs, to the employees of the Company describing the Company’s proposal to implement the Option Exchange Program in the near future, if the Option Exchange Program is approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Annual Meeting; (iv) frequently asked questions regarding the proposal to implement the Option Exchange Program, dated as of March 13, 2009, and (v) a form of glossary of key terms defining certain terms related to the Option Exchange Program, dated as of March 13, 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.
