PART I ITEM 1. Business. General Information -------------------- Texas Instruments Incorporated ("TI" or the "company," including subsidiaries except where the context indicates otherwise) is headquartered in Dallas, Texas, and has manufacturing, design or sales operations in more than 25 countries. TI's largest geographic markets are in the United States, Asia, Japan and Europe. TI has been in operation since 1930. The financial information with respect to TI's business segments and operations outside the United States, which is contained in the note to the financial statements captioned "Business Segment and Geographic Area Data" on pages C-25 through C-27 of TI's proxy statement for the 2002 annual meeting of stockholders, is incorporated herein by reference to such proxy statement. Semiconductor ------------- TI is a global semiconductor company and a leading designer and supplier of digital signal processors and analog integrated circuits, the engines driving the digitization of electronics. These two types of semiconductor products work together in digital electronic devices such as digital cellular phones. Digital signal processors and analog integrated circuits enable a wide range of new products and features for TI's more than 30,000 customers in commercial, industrial and consumer markets. TI also is a world leader in the design and manufacturing of other semiconductor products. Those products include standard logic devices, application-specific integrated circuits, reduced instruction-set computing microprocessors, microcontrollers and digital imaging devices. The semiconductor business comprised 83% of TI's 2001 revenues. TI's semiconductor products are used in a diverse range of electronic systems, including cellular telephones, personal computers, servers, communications infrastructure equipment, digital cameras, digital audio players, motor controls, automobiles and digital imaging systems including projector and television systems. Products are sold to original-equipment manufacturers, contract manufacturers and distributors. TI's semiconductor patent portfolio has been established as an ongoing contributor to semiconductor revenues. Revenues generated from sales to TI's top five semiconductor customers accounted for approximately 29% of total semiconductor revenues in 2001. The semiconductor business is intensely competitive, subject to rapid technological change and pricing pressures, and requires high rates of investment. TI faces strong competition in all of its semiconductor product lines. The rapid pace of change and technological breakthroughs constantly create new opportunities for existing competitors and start-ups, which can quickly render existing technologies less valuable. In digital signal processors, TI competes with a growing number of large and small companies, both U.S.-based and international. New product development capabilities, applications 2

support, software knowledge and advanced semiconductor process technology are the primary competitive factors in this business. The market for analog integrated circuits is highly fragmented. TI competes with many large and small companies, both U.S.-based and international. Primary competitive factors in this business are the availability of innovative designs and designers, a broad range of process technologies and applications support and, particularly in the standard products area, price. Other TI Businesses ------------------- In addition to semiconductors, TI has two other principal segments. The largest, representing 12% of TI's 2001 revenues, is Sensors & Controls. This business sells electrical and electronic controls, sensors and radio-frequency identification systems into commercial and industrial markets. Typically the top supplier in targeted product areas, Sensors & Controls faces strong multinational and regional competitors. The primary competitive factors in this business are product reliability, manufacturing costs and engineering expertise. The products of the business are sold to original equipment manufacturers and distributors. Revenues generated from sales to TI's top five Sensors & Controls customers accounted for approximately 24% of total Sensors & Controls revenues in 2001. Educational & Productivity Solutions (E&PS) represents 5% of TI's 2001 revenues and is a leading supplier of graphing and educational calculators. This business sells primarily through retailers and to schools through instructional dealers. TI's principal competitors in this business are Japan- and U.S.-based companies. Technology expertise, price and infrastructure for education and market understanding are primary competitive factors in this business. Revenues generated from sales to TI's top five E&PS customers accounted for approximately 44% of total E&PS revenues in 2001. Acquisitions and Divestitures ------------------------------- From time to time TI considers acquisitions and divestitures that may strengthen its business portfolio. TI may effect one or more of these transactions at such time or times as it determines to be appropriate. In the third quarter of 2001, TI acquired Graychip, a developer of digital up- and down-converters. This acquisition strengthened TI's product offering for high-speed signal processing applications such as digital radio, wireless basestations, point-to-point microwave communications, broadband wireless access, cable modem head-ends, and digital video systems. Graychip also provided expertise in data conversion across multiple cellular standards. Backlog ------- The dollar amount of backlog of orders believed by TI to be firm was $1036 million as of December 31, 2001 and $2411 million as of December 31, 2000. Backlog orders are, under certain circumstances, subject to cancellation. Also, there is generally a short cycle between order and shipment. Accordingly, the company believes that its backlog as of any particular date may not be indicative of revenue for any future period. 3
10-K4054th Page of 73TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 4th
Raw Materials -------------- TI purchases materials, parts and supplies from a number of suppliers. The materials, parts and supplies essential to TI's business are generally available at present and TI believes at this time that such materials, parts and supplies will be available in the foreseeable future. Patents and Trademarks ------------------------ TI owns many patents in the United States and other countries in fields relating to its business. The company has developed a strong, broad-based patent portfolio. TI also has several agreements with other companies involving license rights and anticipates that other licenses may be negotiated in the future. TI does not consider its business materially dependent upon any one patent or patent license, although taken as a whole, the rights of TI and the products made and sold under patents and patent licenses are important to TI's business. TI owns trademarks that are used in the conduct of its business. These trademarks are valuable assets, the most important of which are "Texas Instruments" and TI's corporate monogram. Research and Development -------------------------- TI's research and development expense was $1598 million in 2001, compared with $1747 million in 2000 and $1379 million in 1999. Included is a charge for the value of acquisition-related purchased in-process research and development of zero in 2001, $112 million in 2000 and $79 million in 1999. Seasonality ----------- TI's revenues and operating results are subject to some seasonal variation. Employees --------- The information concerning the number of persons employed by TI at December 31, 2001 on page C-31 of TI's proxy statement for the 2002 annual meeting of stockholders is incorporated herein by reference to such proxy statement. Cautionary Statements Regarding Future Results of Operations ------------------------------------------------------------ You should read the following cautionary statements in conjunction with the factors discussed elsewhere in this and other of TI's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and in materials incorporated by reference in these filings. These cautionary statements are intended to 4
10-K4055th Page of 73TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 5th
highlight certain factors that may affect the financial condition and results of operations of TI and are not meant to be an exhaustive discussion of risks that apply to companies with broad international operations, such as TI. Like other businesses, TI is susceptible to macroeconomic downturns in the United States or abroad that may affect the general economic climate and performance of TI or its customers. Similarly, the price of TI's securities is subject to volatility due to fluctuations in general market conditions, differences in TI's results of operations from estimates and projections generated by the investment community and other factors beyond TI's control. Further Weakening or Delayed Recovery in the Semiconductor Market May Adversely ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Affect TI's Performance. ----------------------- TI's semiconductor business represents its largest business segment and the principal source of its revenues. The semiconductor market has historically been cyclical and subject to significant economic downturns. After strong growth in 1999 and 2000, the semiconductor market declined significantly in 2001. Further weakening or delayed recovery in the semiconductor market could adversely affect TI's results of operations and have an adverse effect on the market price of its securities. In particular, TI's strategic focus in this business is on the development and marketing of digital signal processors and analog integrated circuits. While TI believes that focusing its efforts on digital signal processors and analog integrated circuits offers the best opportunity for TI to achieve its strategic goals and that TI has developed, and will continue to develop, a wide range of innovative and technologically advanced products, the results of TI's operations may be adversely affected in the future if demand for digital signal processors or analog integrated circuits decreases or if these markets or key end-equipment markets such as telecommunications and computers grow at a pace significantly less than that expected by management. The Technology Industry is Characterized by Rapid Technological Change that --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Requires TI to Develop New Technologies and Products. ---------------------------------------------------- TI's results of operations depend in part upon its ability to successfully develop, manufacture and market innovative products in a rapidly changing technological environment. TI requires significant capital to develop new technologies and products to meet changing customer demands that, in turn, may result in shortened product lifecycles. Moreover, expenditures for technology and product development are generally made before the commercial viability for such developments can be assured. As a result, there can be no assurance that TI will successfully develop and market these new products, that the products TI does develop and market will be well received by customers or that TI will realize a return on the capital expended to develop such products. TI Faces Substantial Competition that Requires TI to Respond Rapidly to Product ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Development and Pricing Pressures. --------------------------------- TI faces intense technological and pricing competition in the markets in which it operates. TI expects that the level of this competition will increase in the 5
10-K4056th Page of 73TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 6th
future from large, established semiconductor and related product companies, as well as from emerging companies serving niche markets also served by TI. Certain of TI's competitors possess sufficient financial, technical and management resources to develop and market products that may compete favorably against those products of TI that currently offer technological and/or price advantages over competitive products. Competition results in price and product development pressures, which may result in reduced profit margins and lost business opportunities in the event that TI is unable to match price declines or technological, product, applications support, software or manufacturing advances of its competitors. TI's Performance Depends upon its Ability to Enforce Its Intellectual Property ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rights and to Develop or License New Intellectual Property. ---------------------------------------------------------- TI benefits from royalties generated from various license agreements that will generally be in effect through the year 2005. Access to worldwide markets depends on the continued strength of TI's intellectual property portfolio. Future royalty revenue depends on the strength of TI's portfolio and enforcement efforts, and on the sales and financial stability of TI's licensees. TI actively enforces and protects its intellectual property rights, but there can be no assurance that TI's efforts will be adequate to prevent the misappropriation or improper use of the protected technology. Moreover, there can be no assurance that, as TI's business expands into new areas, TI will be able to independently develop the technology, software or know-how necessary to conduct its business or that it can do so without infringing the intellectual property rights of others. TI may have to rely increasingly on licensed technology from others. To the extent that TI relies on licenses from others, there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain all of the licenses it desires in the future on terms it considers reasonable or at all. A Decline in Demand in Certain End-User Markets Could Have a Material Adverse ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect on the Demand for TI's Products and Results of Operations. ---------------------------------------------------------------- TI's customer base includes companies in a wide range of industries, but TI generates a significant amount of revenues from sales to customers in the telecommunications and computer-related industries. Within these industries, a large portion of TI revenues is generated by the sale of digital signal processors and analog integrated circuits to customers in the cellular phone, personal computer and communications infrastructure markets. Many of TI's end-user markets declined significantly in 2001. Further decline in any one or several of these end-user markets could have a material adverse effect on the demand for TI's products and its results of operations. TI's Global Manufacturing, Design and Sales Activities Subject It to Risks -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Associated with Legal, Political, Economic or Other Changes. ----------------------------------------------------------- TI operates in more than 25 countries worldwide and in 2001 more than 72% of its revenues came from sales to locations outside the United States. Operating internationally exposes TI to changes in the laws or policies, as well as the 6
10-K4057th Page of 73TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 7th
general economic conditions, security risks and possible disruptions in transportation networks, of the various countries in which it operates, which could result in an adverse effect on TI's business operations in such countries and its results of operations. Also, as discussed in more detail on pages C-12 and C-37 of TI's proxy statement for the 2002 annual meeting of stockholders, TI uses forward currency exchange contracts to minimize the adverse earnings impact from the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on the company's non-U.S. dollar net balance sheet exposures. Nevertheless, in periods when the U.S. dollar strengthens in relation to the non-U.S. currencies in which TI transacts business, the remeasurement of non-U.S. dollar transactions can have an adverse effect on TI's non-U.S. business. The Loss of or Significant Curtailment of Purchases by any of TI's Largest -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Customers Could Adversely Affect TI's Results of Operations. ----------------------------------------------------------- While TI generates revenues from thousands of customers worldwide, the loss of or significant curtailment of purchases by one or more of its top customers, including curtailments due to a change in the design or manufacturing sourcing policies or practices of these customers, or the timing of customer inventory adjustments may adversely affect TI's results of operations. TI's Performance Depends on the Availability of Raw Materials and Critical -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Manufacturing Equipment. ----------------------- Limited or delayed access to key raw materials used in the manufacturing process or critical manufacturing equipment could adversely impact TI's results of operations. TI's Continued Success Depends Upon Its Ability to Retain and Recruit a ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Sufficient Number of Qualified Employees in a Competitive Environment. --------------------------------------------------------------------- TI's continued success depends on the retention and recruitment of skilled personnel, including technical, marketing, management and staff personnel. Experienced personnel in the electronics industry are in high demand and competition for their skills is intense. There can be no assurance that TI will be able to successfully retain and recruit the key personnel that it requires. Available Information --------------------- TI files annual, quarterly and special reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC. You may read and copy any reports, statements and other information filed by TI at the SEC's public reference rooms at 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549, or at the SEC offices in New York, New York and Chicago, Illinois. Please call (800) SEC-0330 for further information on the public reference rooms. TI's filings are also available to the public from commercial document retrieval services and at the web site maintained by the SEC at http://www.sec.gov. 7

ITEM 2. Properties. TI's principal executive offices are located at 12500 TI Boulevard, Dallas, Texas. TI owns and leases facilities in the United States and 16 other countries for manufacturing, design and related purposes. The following table indicates the general location of TI's principal manufacturing and design operations and the business segments which make major use of them. Except as otherwise indicated, these facilities are owned by TI. Sensors Semiconductor & Controls E&PS ------------- ------------ ---- Dallas, Texas(1) X X Houston, Texas X Sherman, Texas(1)(2) X Tucson, Arizona X Attleboro, X X Massachusetts Bangalore, India X Hiji, Japan X Miho, Japan X Tokyo, Japan X Kuala Lumpur, X X Malaysia(3) Baguio, X Philippines(4) Taipei, Taiwan X Nice, France X Freising, Germany X X Aguascalientes, Mexico X X -------------------- (1) Certain facilities or portions thereof in Dallas and Sherman are leased to Raytheon Company or Raytheon-related entities in connection with the sale in 1997 of TI's defense systems and electronics business. (2) Leased. (3) Approximately half of this site is owned on leased land; the remainder is leased. (4) Owned on leased land. TI's facilities in the United States contained approximately 15,800,000 square feet as of December 31, 2001, of which approximately 2,400,000 square feet were leased. TI's facilities outside the United States contained approximately 5,900,000 square feet as of December 31, 2001, of which approximately 1,500,000 square feet were leased. TI believes that its existing properties are in good condition and suitable for the manufacture of its products. At the end of 2001, the company utilized substantially all of the space in its facilities. Leases covering TI's leased facilities expire at varying dates generally within the next 10 years. TI anticipates no difficulty in either retaining occupancy through lease renewals, month-to-month occupancy or purchases of leased facilities, or replacing the leased facilities with equivalent facilities. 8

ITEM 3. Legal Proceedings. Italian government auditors have substantially completed a review, conducted in the ordinary course, of approximately $250 million of grants from the Italian government to TI's former memory operations in Italy. The auditors have raised a number of issues relating to compliance with grant requirements and the eligibility of specific expenses for the grants. As part of a government reorganization with respect to program contracts, responsibility for review of the auditor's findings was transferred from the Ministry of the Treasury to the Ministry of Economics and Finance. Depending on the Ministry of Economics and Finance's decision, the review may result in a demand from the Italian government that TI repay a portion of the grants. The company believes that the grants were obtained and used in compliance with applicable law and contractual obligations. TI is involved in various investigations and proceedings conducted by the federal Environmental Protection Agency and certain state environmental agencies regarding disposal of waste materials. Although the factual situations and the progress of each of these matters differ, the company believes that the amount of its liability will not have a material adverse effect upon its financial position or results of operations.

Executive shall look exclusively to the Company's Short-Term Disability Income Plan and any long-term disability income policies maintained on his behalf pursuant to this Section 4.3.2 for the payment of his disability benefits hereunder, and the Company shall have no obligation to provide any long-term disability income payments out of the Company's own funds and shall not be the guarantor of the disability income benefits contemplated by this Section 4.3.2. 4.3.3 HEALTH CARE COVERAGE.

The Company and Executive understand and agree that the scope and duration of the covenants contained in this Section 3.1 are reasonable both in time and geographical area and are fairly necessary to protect the business of the Company. Such covenants shall survive the termination of Executive's employment, except that the Section 3.1.2 non-competition covenant shall remain in effect following such termination of employment only to extent required pursuant to the provisions of ARTICLE FOUR.

3.1.5 ASSIGNMENT.

However, should Executive be required under Section 3.2 to render one or more hours of consulting services following a termination of employment in which he is not entitled to any salary continuation payments under ARTICLE FOUR, then Executive shall receive cash compensation for such services at the hourly rate to be negotiated in good faith with the Company at the time of each project assignment. 3.2.2 EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT. Executive shall be entitled to reimbursement of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the performance of his consulting services pursuant to this Section 3.2 upon presentation to the Company of appropriate documentation evidencing those expenses. 3.3 CONSIDERATION FOR COVENANTS AND CONSULTING AGREEMENT. Should Executive's employment terminate in connection with a Change in Control, then the value of his non-competition covenant under Section 3.1.2 and his consulting agreement under Section 3.2 shall be determined by independent appraisal, and the severance benefits payable to Executive under ARTICLE FOUR shall, to the extent of such appraised value, be allocated as reasonable compensation for such covenant and consulting agreement. Executive and the Company shall, within ten (10) business days following such Change in Control, select an independent third party (either an experienced tax counsel or a nationally recognized accounting firm) to perform the appraisal required under this Section 3.3. Should Executive and the Company be unable to mutually agree upon the selection of such third party, then Executive shall designate a nationally recognized accounting firm to perform such appraisal, provided such firm has not previously served as the 9

ARTICLE FIVE BENEFIT LIMITATION ------------------- 5.1. LIMITATION ON SEVERANCE BENEFITS. In the event of a Parachute Event, the following limitations shall become applicable to the benefits payable to Executive pursuant to this Agreement: 5.1.1 BENEFIT REDUCTION. If the Parachute Event constitutes a Change in Control, then the dollar amount of the severance benefits to which Executive becomes entitled under ARTICLE FOUR shall be reduced to the extent necessary to assure that the present value of those payments will not, when added to the present value of the Option Parachute Payment and Other Parachute Payments to which Executive may also be entitled upon such Change in Control, exceed 2.99 times Executive's Actual Five-Year Average Compensation (the "Parachute Limit"). Any acceleration of Executive's unvested Options, whether at the time of the Change in Control or upon the subsequent termination of Executive's employment within two (2) years after such Change in Control, shall only be limited to the extent necessary to provide Executive with the maximum after-tax benefit available, after taking into account any parachute excise tax which might otherwise be payable by Executive under Code Section 4999 (and any analogous State income tax provision) with respect to his total benefit package. However, if the Parachute Event constitutes a Hostile Take-Over, then no reduction shall be made to the Executive's severance benefits under ARTICLE FOUR and no limitation shall be imposed upon the acceleration of Executive's outstanding Options, except to the extent (if any) necessary to provide Executive with the maximum after-tax benefit available, after taking into account any parachute excise tax which might otherwise be payable by Executive under Code Section 4999 (and any analogous State income tax provision) with respect to his total benefit package. 5.1.2 RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES. Should there arise any dispute between Executive and the Company as to whether one or more benefits to which Executive becomes entitled (whether under this Agreement, the Options or otherwise) in connection with a Parachute Event constitute Option Parachute Payments or Other Parachute Payments, such dispute is to be resolved as follows: - In the event temporary, proposed or final Treasury Regulations in effect at the time under Code Section 280G specifically address the status of such benefits or the method for their valuation, the characterization afforded to such benefits by the Regulations, together with the methods prescribed for their valuation, shall be controlling. - In the event such Regulations do not address the status of the benefits in dispute, the matter shall be submitted for resolution to independent counsel mutually acceptable to Executive and the Company 15
10-K40563rd Page of 73TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 63rd
("Independent Counsel"). The resolution reached by Independent Counsel shall be final and controlling. However, should the Independent Counsel determine that the status of the benefits in dispute can be resolved through the obtainment of a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, a formal and proper request for such ruling shall be prepared and submitted by Independent Counsel, and the determination made by the Internal Revenue Service in the issued ruling shall be controlling. All expenses incurred in connection with the retention of Independent Counsel and (if applicable) the preparation and submission of the ruling request shall be paid by the Company. - The present value of each Option Parachute Payment and each of the Other Parachute Payments (including any salary continuation payments and Health Care Coverage under ARTICLE FOUR) shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Code Section 280G(d)(4) and the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder. 5.1.3 HOLD-BACK OF BENEFITS. Any severance benefits to which Executive may become entitled under ARTICLE FOUR shall not be paid to Executive until any amounts in dispute under Section 5.1.2 have been resolved in accordance herewith. However, any portion of such severance benefits which would not otherwise exceed the benefit limitation of Section 5.1.1 even if all amounts in dispute under Section 5.1.2 were to be resolved against Executive shall be paid to Executive in accordance with the applicable provisions of ARTICLE FOUR 5.1.4 OVERRIDING LIMITATION. Executive shall in all events be entitled to receive the full amount of his severance benefits under ARTICLE FOUR, to the extent those benefits, when added to the present value of his Option Parachute Payment and Other Parachute Payments (excluding such severance benefits), will nevertheless qualify as reasonable compensation within the standards established under Code Section 280G(b)(4). 16

MISCELLANEOUS. The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted under the laws of the State of Arizona. If any provision of this Agreement as applied to any party or to any circumstance should be adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or unenforceable for any reason, the invalidity of that provision shall in no way affect (to the maximum extent permissible by law) the application of such provision under circumstances different from those adjudicated by the court, the application of any other provision of this Agreement, or the enforceability or invalidity of this Agreement as a whole. 6.8 ARBITRATION.

In recognition of both your continued employment for one year post-close of the Burr-Brown acquisition, and your agreement to the competitive and non-solicitation restrictions in your existing Change in Control Severance Benefit Agreement dated October 30, 1996, the Company will pay you a Special Payment. The Special Payment ("Special Payment") will be $3.5 million less compensation paid to you or for your benefit (including base salary, profit sharing and retirement plan contributions other than your salary deferral contributions) with respect to the period 1/1/01 through 8/23/01. This Special Payment will be paid to you in four (4) substantially equal installments payable on 11/30/00, 2/28/01, 5/31/01 and 8/31/01. In the event you resign before one of the payment dates listed above, you will not be eligible for the remaining Special Payment(s). In case of Involuntary termination, however, all remaining payments will become due and payable to you on the respective payment dates. The amount of the fourth Special Payment installment may be estimated by the Company in anticipation of your profit sharing entitlement for the period of 1/1 through 8/23 of year 2001. You agree to reimburse the Company for any overpayment of the fourth Special Payment no later than 30 days after you are notified of any such overpayment. The Company agrees to pay you for any underpayment of the Special Payment no later than 3/31/02. The four Special Payment installments will not be considered eligible earnings for purposes of TI profit sharing, 401 (k) and other retirement benefits. For the portion of the calendar year after August 24, 2001, you will be entitled to receive a prorated bonus equal to at least 80% of the normal performance bonus paid in cash to respect of such period to TI's 5th highest paid executive officer, as will be reported in TI's 2002 proxy statement. This bonus will be paid during the first quarter of 2002 provided you are employed by the Company on the payment date. For example, if TI's 5th highest executive officer at the end of 2001 earned a normal performance bonus of $100,000 for all of 2001, then you will receive a bonus of at least $28,274 ($100,000 x.8 x 129/365). For year 2002, you will be entitled to receive a bonus equal to at least 80% of the normal performance bonus paid in crash in respect of such period to TI's 5th highest paid executive officer, as will be reported In TI's 2003 proxy statement. Should you terminate before 8/15/02, you will not be eligible to receive such bonus. Should your employment be terminated after 8/15/02 but before the end of the year, your bonus would be prorated to reflect 2002 calendar days employed. This bonus will be paid during the first quarter of 2003. Beginning 1/1/2003, you will be eligible, during your continued employment, to participate in the Company's normal bonus programs as commensurate with similarly situated employees.

Upon your agreement to the terms of this letter, we will recommend to the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of TI that you immediately be awarded a non-qualified option under the Texas Instruments 2000 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan") to purchase an aggregate of 250,000 shares of common stock of TI, par value of $1.00 ("TI Stock'), at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of TI Stock as of the date of grant. Each stock option shall have a term of ten (10) years and shall vest 50% on 11/01/01 and 50% on 8/01/02, provided you remain employed by the Company on each date. The vested portion of such stock option shall be exercisable for the remainder of the full term regardless of your termination of employment. The Company agrees that your option agreement will not include any provisions requiring a repayment to the company for any profit (spread between Option Price and market price of the TI Stock on the date of exercise) realized from the exercising of such options. The stock options will include a non-competition provision for the same period and with respect to the same companies as set forth in the last paragraph of this letter. The stock options granted pursuant to this paragraph shall be subject to the remainder of the terms of the Plan. The stock options granted pursuant to this paragraph will not fully vest upon your termination of employment as a result of the change of control in connection with the Burr-Brown acquisition. As a condition of continued employment with the Company, you shall promptly execute and deliver to the Company an Employee Trade Secrets Information Acknowledgement, an Assignment of Invention and Company Information Agreement, a Release of Records and such other documents as TI reasonably may require from time to time with respect to its new employees or similarly situated employees, if you have not otherwise done so. Effective beginning six months after August 24, 2000, should either you or the Company terminate your employment, such termination will be considered Without Cause for the purpose of severance calculation as outlined in your Change In Control Severance Benefit Agreement. It is agreed that the options granted to you by Burr-Brown, which remain unvested, will vest in full upon such termination, given that such termination occurs on or before August 23, 2002. For purposes of clarification. It is agreed that with regard to the acceleration of vesting of options, any services performed as a consultant will not constitute employment. The Change In Control Severance Benefit Agreement dated October 30, 1996 Is modified as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph. To the extent there may be a conflict, the terms of this letter will govern. This letter, also, supercedes and voids your June 20, 2000 letter agreement signed by Tom Engibous. In addition to your obligations under the aforesaid severance agreement, you agree not to provide services, directly or indirectly, as an employee or otherwise for a period of one year following your termination of employment to Analog Devices, Incorporated, Linear Technology Corporation & Maxim Integrated Products, Incorporated.
