1.   Basis of Presentation
 
The condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2006 and for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and October 1, 2005, include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and reclassifications) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of September 30, 2006 and for all periods presented.
 
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, as amended in the Form 10-K/A filed on March 7, 2006. The results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year. Certain amounts in prior periods’ financial statements and related notes have been reclassified to conform to the 2006 presentation.
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
2.   Discontinued Operations
 
In July 2006, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of its automotive electronics business, which was a component of the Networks and Enterprise segment, to Continental AG (“Continental”) for approximately $919 million in net cash received. Following the satisfaction of certain regulatory and other customary closing conditions, certain assets, liabilities and employees of the automotive electronics business in China will be transferred to Continental and additional cash will be received. The Company recorded a gain of $379 million before income taxes, which is included in Earnings from discontinued operations, net of tax, in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, in December 2004, the Company completed the spin-off of its remaining equity interest in Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. (“Freescale”).
 
The financial results of the automotive electronics business and Freescale have been reflected as discontinued operations in the underlying financial statements and related disclosures for all periods presented. As a result, the historical footnote disclosures have been revised to exclude amounts related to the automotive electronics business and Freescale.

3.   Stock-Based Compensation
 
Stock Options and Employee Stock Purchase Plan
 
The Company grants options to acquire shares of common stock to certain employees. Each option granted has an exercise price of 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of the grant. The majority of the options have a contractual life of 10 years and vest and become exercisable at 25% increments over four years. Upon the occurrence of a change in control, each stock option outstanding on the date on which the change in control occurs will immediately become exercisable in full.
 
The employee stock purchase plan allows eligible participants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock through payroll deductions of up to 10% of eligible compensation on an after-tax basis. U.S. plan participants cannot purchase more than $25,000 of stock in any calendar year. The price an employee pays per share is 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the Company’s stock on the close of the first trading day or last trading day of the purchase period. The plan has two purchase periods, the first one from October 1 through March 31 and the second one from April 1 through September 30.
 
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123R, Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R supersedes the Company’s previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (“APB 25”), for periods beginning in fiscal 2006. Under APB 25, the Company accounted for stock options under the intrinsic value method. Accordingly, the Company did not recognize expense related to employee stock options because the exercise price of such options equaled the fair value of the underlying stock on the grant date. The Company previously disclosed the fair value of its stock options under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation (“SFAS 123”).
 
The Company adopted SFAS 123R using the modified prospective transition method, which requires the application of the accounting standard as of January 1, 2006, the first day of the Company’s fiscal year 2006. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for prior periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not include, the impact of SFAS 123R.

Under SFAS 123R, the Company recognized $44 million and $133 million, net of taxes, of compensation expense related to stock options and employee stock purchases for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively, which was allocated as follows (in millions, except per share amounts):

  $ (0.02 )   $ (0.05 )
Decrease in Diluted earnings per share
  $ (0.02 )   $ (0.05 )
 
Upon adoption of SFAS 123R, the Company continued to calculate the value of each employee stock option, estimated on the date of grant, using the Black-Scholes model in accordance with SFAS 123R. The weighted-average estimated value of employee stock options granted during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $8.75 per share and $9.24 per share, respectively, using the following weighted-average assumptions:
 
                 
    Three Months
    Nine Months
 
    Ended
    Ended
 
    September 30, 2006     September 30, 2006  
 
Expected volatility
    31.8 %     36.3 %
Risk-free interest rate
    4.8 %     5.0 %
Dividend yield
    0.8 %     0.8 %
Expected life (years)
    6.5       6.5  
 
The Company used the implied volatility for traded options on the Company’s stock as the expected volatility assumption required in the Black-Scholes model, consistent with SFAS 123R and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107. Prior to the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company used a blended volatility rate using a combination of historical stock price volatility and market-implied volatility in accordance with SFAS 123 for purposes of its pro forma information. The selection of the implied volatility approach was based upon the availability of actively traded options on the Company’s stock and the Company’s assessment that implied volatility is more representative of future stock price trends than historical volatility.
 
The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon the average daily closing rates during the quarter for U.S. treasury notes that have a life which approximates the expected life of the option. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts. The expected life of employee stock options represents the weighted-average period the stock options are expected to remain outstanding. These expected life assumptions are established through the review of annual historical employee exercise behavior of option grants with similar vesting periods. Beginning in the first quarter of 2006, the Company began using an estimated forfeiture rate of 25% based on historical data. Prior to 2006, the Company used the actual forfeiture method allowed under SFAS 123, which assumed that all options would vest and pro forma expense was adjusted when options were forfeited prior to the vesting dates. SFAS 123R requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

At September 30, 2006, the Company had $450 million of total unrecognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, related to stock option plans that will be recognized over the weighted average period of approximately two years. Cash received from stock option exercises and the employee stock purchase plan was $715 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
 
Prior to adopting SFAS 123R, the Company presented all tax benefits resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in the statements of cash flows. SFAS 123R requires cash flows resulting from excess tax benefits to be classified as a part of cash flows from financing activities. Excess tax benefits are realized tax benefits from tax deductions for exercised options in excess of the deferred tax asset attributable to stock compensation costs for such options. As a result of adopting SFAS 123R, $149 million of excess tax benefits for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 have been classified as a financing cash inflow.
 
Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units
 
Restricted stock (“RS”) and restricted stock unit grants (“RSU”) consist of shares or the rights to shares of the Company’s common stock which are awarded to employees and non-employee directors. The grants are restricted such that they are subject to substantial risk of forfeiture and to restrictions on their sale or other transfer by the employee. Upon the occurrence of a change in control, the restrictions on all shares of RS and RSU outstanding on the date on which the change in control occurs will lapse.
 
A summary of changes in RS and RSU balances during the nine month period ended September 30, 2006 is presented below:

At September 30, 2006, the Company had $65 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to RS and RSU grants that will be recognized over the weighted average period of approximately three years. The Company recognized $3 million and $2 million of expense, net of tax, related to RS and RSU grants, during the three months ended September 30, 2006 and October 1, 2005, respectively. The Company recognized $10 million and $5 million of expense, net of tax, related to RS and RSU grants, during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and October 1, 2005, respectively.
 
At September 30, 2006, 110.3 million shares were available for future grants under the 2006 Motorola Omnibus Plan, covering all equity awards to employees and non-employee directors.

During the first quarter of 2006, the Company entered into a zero-cost collar derivative (the “Sprint Nextel Derivative”) to protect itself economically against price fluctuations in its 37.6 million shares of Sprint Nextel Corporation (“Sprint Nextel”) non-voting common stock. During the second quarter of 2006, as a result of Sprint Nextel’s spin-off of Embarq Corporation through a dividend to Sprint Nextel shareholders, the Company received approximately 1.9 million shares of Embarq Corporation. The floor and ceiling prices of the Sprint Nextel Derivative were adjusted accordingly. If the Sprint Nextel shares and the Sprint Nextel Derivative, as adjusted, are held to the Sprint Nextel Derivative’s maturity, the Company would receive cumulative proceeds of no less than $853 million and no more than $1.1 billion from the sale of its 37.6 million Sprint Nextel shares and the settlement of the Sprint Nextel Derivative. The Sprint Nextel Derivative was not designated as a hedge under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. Accordingly, to reflect the change in fair value of the Sprint Nextel Derivative, the Company recorded income of $93 million and $165 million for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively, both included in Other income (expense) in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.
 
Prior to the merger of Sprint Corporation (“Sprint”) and Nextel Communications, Inc. (“Nextel”), the Company had entered into variable share forward purchase agreements (the “Variable Forwards”) to hedge its Nextel common stock. The Company did not designate the Variable Forwards as a hedge of the Sprint Nextel shares received as a result of the merger. Accordingly, the Company recorded $58 million of gains during the third quarter of 2005 reflecting the change in value of the Variable Forwards. The Variable Forwards were settled during the fourth quarter of 2005.

Stock Repurchase Program
 
In May 2005, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized the Company to purchase up to $4 billion of its outstanding common stock over a 36-month period ending in May 2008, subject to market conditions (the “2005 Stock Repurchase Program”). In July 2006, the Company entered into an accelerated stock buyback agreement to repurchase approximately $1.2 billion of its outstanding common stock (the “ASB”). During the quarter, the Company received a total of 49.2 million shares under the ASB, representing the minimum number of shares to be received under the ASB. On October 31, 2006, the Company received an additional 1.3 million shares as the final adjustment under the ASB. The total shares purchased under the ASB were 50.5 million shares.

Table of Contents

During the third quarter of 2006, the Company paid an aggregate of $1.5 billion, including transaction costs, to repurchase 62 million shares (including shares received under the ASB during the quarter). During the first nine months of 2006, the Company has paid $3.1 billion, including transaction costs, to repurchase 138 million shares. All repurchased shares have been retired. Repurchases under the ASB, together with all repurchases made prior to the date thereof, completed the repurchases authorized under the 2005 Stock Repurchase Program.
 
On July 24, 2006, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has authorized the Company to repurchase up to an additional $4.5 billion of its outstanding shares of common stock over a 36-month period ending on July 21, 2009, subject to market conditions (the “2006 Stock Repurchase Program”). Through the end of the third quarter, no shares have been repurchased under the 2006 Stock Repurchase Program.
 
5.   Income Taxes
 
On October 22, 2004, the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (“the Act”) was signed into law. The Act provides for a special one-time tax incentive for U.S. multinational companies to repatriate accumulated earnings from their foreign subsidiaries by providing an 85% dividends received deduction for certain qualifying dividends. The Company repatriated approximately $4.6 billion of accumulated foreign earnings under the Act during 2005 and recorded an associated net income tax benefit of $251 million and $14 million during the third and fourth quarters of 2005, respectively. The Company finalized certain actions maximizing the tax benefit attributable to the repatriation of foreign earnings under the provisions of the Act during 2006 and recognized an additional $68 million of net tax benefits relating to these actions during the second quarter of 2006.
 
Based on the Company’s current assessment of the realization of its deferred tax assets, the Company realized a tax benefit of $73 million relating to the reduction in its German deferred tax asset valuation allowance during the second quarter of 2006. At September 30, 2006, a partial valuation allowance of $200 million remains against its German deferred tax assets, including tax loss and credit carryforwards.
 
The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) is currently conducting its field examination of the Company’s 2001 through 2003 tax returns. In June 2006, in connection with this examination, the Company received notices of proposed adjustments for the 2001 and 2002 taxable years related to transfer pricing. These proposed adjustments are similar to those previously made by the IRS for the Company’s 1996 through 2000 taxable years. The Company is currently protesting the 1996 through 2000 adjustments at the appellate level of the IRS. The Company disagrees with all of these proposed transfer pricing-related adjustments and intends to vigorously dispute them through applicable IRS and judicial procedures, as appropriate. However, if the IRS were to ultimately prevail on these matters, it could result in: (i) additional taxable income for the years 1996 through 2000 of approximately $1.4 billion, which could result in additional income tax liability for the Company of approximately $500 million, and (ii) additional taxable income for the years 2001 and 2002 of approximately $800 million, which could result in additional income tax liability for the Company of approximately $300 million. Although the final resolution of these matters is uncertain, based on current information, in the opinion of the Company’s management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations. However, an unfavorable resolution could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations in the periods in which these matters are ultimately resolved.

Long-term finance receivables, net
  $ 83     $ 82  
                 
 
Current finance receivables are included in Accounts receivable and long-term finance receivables are included in Other assets in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Interest income recognized on finance receivables was $2 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2006 and October 1, 2005 and $6 million for both the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and October 1, 2005.
 
On October 28, 2005, the Company entered into an agreement to resolve disputes regarding Telsim Mobil Telekomunikasyon Hizmetleri A.S. (“Telsim”) with Telsim and the government of Turkey. The government of Turkey and the Turkish Savings and Deposit Insurance Fund (“TMSF”) are third-party beneficiaries of the settlement agreement. In settlement of its claims, the Company received $500 million in cash in 2005 and $410 million in cash during the second quarter of 2006. The Company is permitted to, and will continue to, enforce its U.S. court judgment against the Uzan family, except in Turkey and three other countries.
 
From time to time, the Company sells short-term receivables, long-term loans and lease receivables under sales-type leases (collectively, “finance receivables”) to third parties in transactions that qualify as “true-sales.” Certain of these finance receivables are sold to third parties on a one-time, non-recourse basis, while others are sold to third parties under committed facilities that involve contractual commitments from these parties to purchase qualifying receivables up to an outstanding monetary limit. Committed facilities may be revolving in nature.


20


Table of Contents

Certain sales may be made through separate legal entities that are consolidated by the Company. The Company may or may not retain the obligation to service the sold finance receivables.
 
In the aggregate, at September 30, 2006, these committed facilities provided for up to $1.4 billion to be outstanding with the third parties at any time, as compared to up to $1.1 billion provided at December 31, 2005. As of September 30, 2006, $890 million of these committed facilities were utilized, compared to $585 million utilized at December 31, 2005. Certain events could cause one or more of these facilities to terminate. In addition, before receivables can be sold under certain of the committed facilities they may need to meet contractual requirements, such as credit quality or insurability.
 
Total finance receivables sold by the Company were $1.8 billion and $4.6 billion for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively (including $1.7 billion and $4.4 billion, respectively, of short-term receivables), compared to $1.0 billion and $2.9 billion sold for the three months and nine months ended October 1, 2005, respectively (including $918 million and $2.7 billion, respectively, of short-term receivables). As of September 30, 2006, there were $1.2 billion of these sold receivables outstanding for which the Company retained servicing obligations (including $967 million of short-term receivables), compared to $1.0 billion outstanding at December 31, 2005 (including $838 million of short-term receivables).
 
Under certain of the receivables programs, the value of the receivables sold is covered by credit insurance obtained from independent insurance companies, less deductibles or self-insurance requirements under the policies (with the Company retaining credit exposure for the remaining portion). The Company’s total credit exposure to outstanding short-term receivables that have been sold was $19 million and $66 million at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. Reserves of $4 million were recorded for potential losses on sold receivables at both September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005.
 
Certain purchasers of the Company’s infrastructure equipment continue to request that suppliers provide financing in connection with equipment purchases. Financing may include all or a portion of the purchase price of the equipment as well as working capital. Periodically, the Company makes commitments to provide financing to purchasers in connection with the sale of equipment. However, the Company’s obligation to provide financing is often conditioned on the issuance of a letter of credit in favor of the Company by a reputable bank to support the purchaser’s credit or a pre-existing commitment from a reputable bank to purchase the receivable from the Company. The Company had outstanding commitments to extend credit to third-parties totaling $358 million at September 30, 2006, compared to $689 million at December 31, 2005. Of these amounts, $204 million was supported by letters of credit or by bank commitments to purchase receivables at September 30, 2006, compared to $594 million at December 31, 2005.
 
In addition to providing direct financing to certain equipment customers, the Company also assists customers in obtaining financing directly from banks and other sources to fund equipment purchases. The Company had committed to provide financial guarantees relating to customer financing totaling $129 million and $140 million at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively (including $19 million and $66 million, respectively, relating to the sale of short-term receivables). Customer financing guarantees outstanding were $88 million and $79 million at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively (including $13 million and $42 million, respectively, relating to the sale of short-term receivables).
 
8.   Commitments and Contingencies
 
Legal
 
Iridium Program:  The Company has been named as one of several defendants in class action securities lawsuits arising out of alleged misrepresentations and omissions regarding the Iridium satellite communications business, which on March 15, 2001, were consolidated in the District of Columbia under Freeland v. Iridium World Communications, Inc., et al., originally filed on April 22, 1999.
 
The Company was sued by the Statutory Official Committee of the Unsecured Creditors of Iridium in the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York on July 19, 2001. In re Iridium Operating LLC, et al. v. Motorola asserts claims for breach of contract, warranty, fiduciary duty, and fraudulent transfer and preferences, and seeks in excess of $4 billion in damages. Trial began on October 23, 2006.

Table of Contents

The Company has not reserved for any potential liability that may arise as a result of the litigation described above related to the Iridium program. While the still pending cases are in various stages and the outcomes are not predictable, an unfavorable outcome of one or more of these cases could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations.
 
Other:  The Company is a defendant in various other suits, claims and investigations that arise in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, and other than as discussed above with respect to the Iridium cases, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations.
 
Other
 
The Company is also a party to a variety of agreements pursuant to which it is obligated to indemnify the other party with respect to certain matters. Some of these obligations arise as a result of divestitures of the Company’s assets or businesses and require the Company to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from the settlement of these pending obligations. The total amount of indemnification under these types of provisions is $169 million and the Company has accrued $95 million at September 30, 2006 for certain claims that have been asserted under these provisions.
 
In addition, the Company may provide indemnifications for losses that result from the breach of general warranties contained in certain commercial, intellectual property and divestiture agreements. Historically, the Company has not made significant payments under these agreements, nor have there been significant claims asserted against the Company.
 
In all indemnification cases, payment by the Company is conditioned on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular contract, which procedures typically allow the Company to challenge the other party’s claims. Further, the Company’s obligations under these agreements for indemnification based on breach of representations and warranties are generally limited in terms of duration, typically not more than 24 months, and for amounts not in excess of the contract value, and in some instances, the Company may have recourse against third parties for certain payments made by the Company.
 
The Company’s operating results are dependent upon our ability to obtain timely and adequate delivery of quality materials, parts and components to meet the demands of our customers. Furthermore certain of our components are available only from a single source or limited sources. Even where alternative sources of supply are available, qualification of the alternative suppliers and establishment of reliable supplies could result in delays and a possible loss of sales, which may have an adverse effect on the Company’s operating results.
 
9.   Segment Information

Beginning in 2006, certain general corporate expenses, which had previously been allocated to the business segments, are included in the operating expenses of Other. These expenses, which were approximately $27 million and $79 million for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively, and are no longer allocated to the operating segments, primarily include: (i) corporate general and administrative expenses, including legal, human resources, strategy, finance and CEO and CFO functional staff expenses, (ii) corporate marketing expenses, and (iii) research and development projects. Also during the third quarter of 2006, the Company recorded an expense of $88 million representing a charitable contribution to the Motorola Foundation of appreciated equity holdings in a third party. During the second quarter of 2006, the Company recorded income of $410 million for a payment relating to the Telsim settlement.
 
10.   Reorganization of Businesses
 
The Company maintains a formal Involuntary Severance Plan (the “Severance Plan”) which permits the Company to offer to eligible employees severance benefits based on years of service and employment grade level in the event that employment is involuntarily terminated as a result of a reduction-in-force or restructuring. Each

Table of Contents

separate reduction-in-force has qualified for severance benefits under the Severance Plan and, therefore, such benefits are accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 112, Accounting for Postemployment Benefits (“SFAS 112”). Under the provisions of SFAS 112, the Company recognizes termination benefits based on formulas per the Severance Plan at the point in time that future settlement is probable and can be reasonably estimated based on estimates prepared at the time a restructuring plan is approved by management. Exit costs primarily consist of future minimum lease payments on vacated facilities. At each reporting date, the Company evaluates its accruals for exit costs and employee separation costs to ensure that the accruals are still appropriate. In certain circumstances, accruals are no longer required because of efficiencies in carrying out the plans or because employees previously identified for separation resigned from the Company and did not receive severance or were redeployed due to circumstances not foreseen when the original plans were initiated. The Company reverses accruals through the income statement line item where the original charges were recorded when it is determined they are no longer required.
 
2006 Charges
 
During the first nine months of 2006, the Company committed to implement various productivity improvement plans aimed principally at: (i) reducing costs in its supply-chain activities, (ii) integrating the former Networks segment and Government and Enterprise Mobility Solutions segment into one organization, the Networks and Enterprise segment, and (iii) reducing other operating expenses, primarily relating to engineering and development costs.
 
For the three months ended September 30, 2006, the Company recorded net reorganization of business charges of $58 million, including $1 million of reversals in Costs of sales and $59 million of charges under Other charges (income) in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Included in the aggregate $58 million are charges of $50 million for employee separation costs, $8 million for fixed asset impairment charges and $6 million for exit costs, partially offset by $6 million of reversals for accruals no longer needed.
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, the Company recorded net reorganization of business charges of $166 million, including $41 million of charges in Costs of sales and $125 million of charges under Other charges (income) in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Included in the aggregate $166 million are charges of $166 million for employee separation costs, $14 million for fixed asset impairment charges, and $6 million for exit costs, partially offset by $20 million of reversals for accruals no longer needed.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
This commentary should be read in conjunction with the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and October 1, 2005, as well as the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto and management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, as amended by the Form 10-K/A filed on March 7, 2006.
 
Executive Overview
 
Our Business
 
We report financial results for the following business segments:
 
  •  The Mobile Devices segment designs, manufactures, sells and services wireless handsets with integrated software and accessory products, and licenses intellectual property. In the third quarter of 2006, the segment’s net sales represented 66% of the Company’s consolidated net sales.*
 
  •  The Networks and Enterprise segment designs, manufactures, sells, installs and services: (i) analog and digital two-way radio, voice and data communications products and systems, as well as wireless broadband systems, to a wide range of public safety, government, utility, transportation and other worldwide enterprise markets (referred to as the “private networks” market), and (ii) cellular infrastructure systems and wireless broadband systems to public carriers and other wireless service providers (referred to as the “public networks” market). In the third quarter of 2006, the segment’s net sales represented 26% of the Company’s consolidated net sales.*
 
  •  The Connected Home Solutions segment designs, manufactures and sells a wide variety of broadband products, including: (i) set-top boxes for cable television, Internet Protocol (“IP”) video and broadcast networks (“digital entertainment set-top devices”) and digital systems, (ii) high speed data products, including cable modems and cable modem termination systems, and IP-based telephony products, (iii) hybrid fiber coaxial network transmission systems used by cable television operators, (iv) digital satellite program distribution systems, (v) direct-to-home satellite networks and private networks for business communications, (vi) advanced video communications products, and (vii) fiber-to-the-premise and fiber-to-the-node transmission systems supporting high-speed data, video and voice. In the third quarter of 2006, the segment’s net sales represented 8% of the Company’s consolidated net sales.*
 
Third Quarter Highlights
 
  •  Net Sales Increased 17%:  Our net sales were $10.6 billion in the third quarter of 2006, up 17% from $9.0 billion in the third quarter of 2005.
 
  •  Earnings Per Share of $0.39:  Our earnings per diluted common share were $0.39 in the third quarter of 2006, compared to earnings per diluted common share of $0.69 in the third quarter of 2005.
 
  •  Handset Shipments Increased 39%:  We shipped 53.7 million handsets in the third quarter of 2006, an increase of 39% compared to shipments of 38.7 million handsets in the third quarter of 2005.
 
  •  Global Handset Market Share Estimated at 22.4%:  We believe that we expanded our global handset market share to an estimated 22.4% in the third quarter of 2006, an increase of 3.8 percentage points versus the third quarter of 2005 and 0.3 percentage points versus the second quarter of 2006.
 
 
*  When discussing the net sales of each of our three segments, we express the segment’s net sales as a percentage of the Company’s consolidated net sales. Because certain of our segments sell products to other Motorola businesses, our intracompany sales were eliminated as part of the consolidation process in third quarter of 2006. As a result, the percentages of consolidated net sales for each of our business segments does not always equal 100% of the Company’s consolidated net sales.

Table of Contents

 
  •  Digital Entertainment Set-top Device Shipments Increased 58%:  We shipped 2.4 million digital entertainment set-top devices, a 58% increase compared to shipments of 1.6 million units in the third quarter of 2005.
 
  •  Operating Cash Flow Increased 36%:  We generated operating cash flow of $1.6 billion in the third quarter of 2006, compared to operating cash flow of $1.2 billion in the third quarter of 2005.
 
  •  Net Interest Income:  We had $90 million of net interest income in the third quarter of 2006, a $70 million improvement from the third quarter of 2005. This improvement was primarily due to an increase in interest income due to higher average cash, cash equivalents and Sigma Funds balances earning interest at higher rates.
 
The 17% increase in net sales in the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005 reflects increased net sales in all three of our business segments:
 
  •  In Mobile Devices:  Net sales were $7.0 billion, an increase of $1.4 billion, or 26%, compared to the third quarter of 2005, primarily driven by strong demand for GSM handsets.
 
  •  In Networks and Enterprise:  Net sales were $2.8 billion, slightly higher compared to the third quarter of 2005, reflecting higher net sales in North America and Latin America, offset by lower net sales in the Europe, Middle East and African region and Asia.
 
  •  In Connected Home Solutions:  Net sales were $812 million, an increase of $69 million, or 9%, compared to the third quarter of 2005, reflecting increased demand for HD/DVR set-top boxes.
 
Looking Forward
 
We are continuing our commitment to quality and an unrelenting focus on innovation. We are committed to pursuing profitable market share growth across all of our businesses.
 
As a thought leader in digital convergence, we remain focused on our seamless mobility strategy. Seamless mobility recognizes that the boundaries between work, home, business, entertainment and leisure continue to dissolve. As we move among different environments, devices and networks, seamless mobility will deliver compelling experiences wherever we go.
 
One aspect of our seamless mobility strategy is to further sharpen our strategic focus on communications solutions that advance our vision. In July 2006, we completed the sale of substantially all of our automotive electronics business for approximately $919 million in net cash. Following the satisfaction of certain regulatory and other customary closing conditions, certain assets, liabilities and employees of the automotive electronics business in China will be transferred to the purchaser and additional cash will be received.
 
Effective as of the second quarter of 2006, the Company realigned its businesses into three operating business segments to strengthen its position in providing end-to-end network infrastructure solutions to private, public and enterprise customers worldwide. By streamlining its structure, the Company hopes to better leverage key current and next-generation technologies across its customer base. The realignment included the combination of our former Networks segment and our former Government and Enterprise Mobility Solutions segment into one organization, called the Networks and Enterprise segment.
 
In addition to our efforts to advance our vision through divestitures and reorganization, the Company has also been active in making strategic acquisitions to add new technologies, capabilities and personnel that complement our seamless mobility strategy. During the first nine months of 2006, the Company completed a number of acquisitions, adding companies such as TTP Communications plc, Broadbus Technologies, Inc., Kreatel Communications AB, Orthogon Systems, NextNet Wireless, Inc. and Vertasent LLC to the Motorola family. These transactions build upon our already strong patent portfolio and enhance our competitive position as a preeminent global communications leader.
 
In the third quarter of 2006, the Company announced its intention to acquire Symbol Technologies, Inc. (“Symbol”). When completed, the acquisition of Symbol will be an important step forward for our enterprise mobility strategy and is consistent with our focus on extending our seamless mobility leadership. Combining

Table of Contents

Motorola’s and Symbol’s adjacent assets, expertise, customers and supplier bases and industry-leading products will enhance the Company’s leading position in the enterprise mobility market.
 
We conduct our business in highly-competitive markets, facing new and established competitors. We also face technological and other industry challenges in developing seamless mobility products. Full digital convergence will require technological advancements and significant investment in research and development. The research and development of new, technologically advanced products is a complex process requiring high levels of innovation, as well as accurate anticipation of technological and market trends. We continue to focus on improving the quality of our products and on enhancing our supply chain to ensure that we can meet customer demand and improve efficiency. However, despite these challenges, we believe our seamless mobility strategy and our compelling products will result in continued success.

Results of Operations — Three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to three months ended October 1, 2005
 
Net Sales
 
Net sales were $10.6 billion in the third quarter of 2006, up 17% compared to $9.0 billion in the third quarter of 2005. The increase in net sales was primarily driven by a $1.4 billion increase in the sales by the Mobile Devices segment, reflecting: (i) a 39% increase in unit shipments, primarily driven by strong demand for GSM handsets, partially offset by a 12% decrease in average selling price (“ASP”), and (ii) increased revenue from technology and platform licensing. Also contributing to the increase in net sales were: (i) a $69 million increase in net sales by the Connected Home Solutions segment, primarily due to increased demand for HD/DVR set-top boxes, and (ii) a $13 million increase in net sales by the Networks and Enterprise segment, driven by higher net sales in North America and Latin America, partially offset by lower net sales in the Europe, Middle East and African region (“EMEA”) and Asia.
 
Gross Margin
 
Gross margin was $3.4 billion, or 31.8% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2006, compared to $2.9 billion, or 32.4% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2005. The increase in gross margin was primarily driven by the Mobile Devices segment, primarily due to: (i) savings from supply chain cost-reduction initiatives, (ii) the 39% increase in unit shipments, and (iii) increased income from technology and platform licensing, partially offset by: (i) the 12% decline in ASP, and (ii) an unfavorable shift in product mix. Gross margin for the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005 also: (i) increased in the Connected Home Solutions segment, primarily due to increased net sales, and (ii) decreased in the Networks and Enterprise segment, primarily due to an unfavorable product/regional mix and pricing pressure in the public networks market.
 
Gross margin as a percentage of net sales for the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005: (i) decreased in the Networks and Enterprise segment, and (ii) increased in the Mobile Devices and Connected Home Solutions segments. The Company’s overall gross margin as a percentage of net sales can be impacted by the proportion of overall net sales generated by its various businesses. The decrease in overall gross margin as a percentage of net sales in the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005 can be partially attributed to the fact that an increased percentage of the Company’s net sales were generated by the Mobile Devices segment, which generates lower gross margins than the overall Company average.
 
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
 
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased 28% to $1.2 billion, or 11.1% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2006, compared to $919 million, or 10.2% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2005. All three of the Company’s operating segments had higher SG&A expenses in the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005. This increase was primarily driven by: (i) increased marketing expenses, mainly in the Mobile Devices segment, to support higher net sales and promote brand awareness, and (ii) stock-based compensation expense in connection with the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123R”). SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales: (i) increased in the Networks and Enterprise and Mobile Devices segments, and (ii) decreased in the Connected Home Solutions segment.
 
Research and Development Expenditures
 
Research and development (“R&D”) expenditures increased 16% to $1.0 billion, or 9.7% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2006, compared to $882 million, or 9.7% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2005. In the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005, R&D expenditures, both in the aggregate and as a percentage of net sales, increased in the Mobile Devices and Connected Home Solutions segments, but decreased in the Networks and Enterprise segment. This increase in R&D expenditures was primarily due to: (i) developmental engineering expenditures for new product development and investment in next-generation technologies across all segments, and (ii) stock-based compensation expense in connection with the adoption of SFAS 123R.

Other Charges (Income)
 
The Company recorded charges of $205 million in Other charges (income) in the third quarter of 2006, compared to charges of $48 million in the third quarter of 2005. The charges in the third quarter of 2006 include: (i) an $88 million charitable contribution to the Motorola Foundation of appreciated equity holdings in a third party, (ii) $59 million of net reorganization of business charges, (iii) $33 million from acquisition-related in-process research and development charges (“IPR&D”), and (iv) a $25 million legal reserve. The net charge of $48 million in the third quarter of 2005 consisted of $55 million of net reorganization of business charges, offset by $7 million in income from the reversal of financing receivable reserves due to partial collection of a previously-uncollectible Telsim receivable. The net reorganization of business charges are discussed in further detail in the “Reorganization of Businesses” section.
 
Net Interest Income (Expense)
 
Net interest income was $90 million in the third quarter of 2006, compared to net interest income of $20 million in the third quarter of 2005. Net interest income in the third quarter of 2006 included interest income of $171 million, partially offset by interest expense of $81 million. Net interest income in the third quarter of 2005 included interest income of $108 million, partially offset by interest expense of $88 million. The increase in net interest income is primarily attributed to an increase in interest income due to higher average cash, cash equivalents and Sigma Funds balances earning interest at higher rates.
 
Gains on Sales of Investments and Businesses
 
Gains on sales of investments and businesses were $10 million in the third quarter of 2006, compared to $1.3 billion in the third quarter of 2005. In the third quarter of 2006, the net gains reflect several small gains from a number of investments. In the third quarter of 2005, the net gains were primarily related to a $1.3 billion gain recognized in connection with the completion of the merger between Sprint Corporation (“Sprint”) and Nextel Communications, Inc. (“Nextel”) .
 
Other
 
Income classified as Other, as presented in Other income (expense), was $87 million in the third quarter of 2006, compared to net expenses of $106 million in the third quarter of 2005. The income in the third quarter of 2006 was primarily comprised of: (i) a $93 million gain due to an increase in market value of a zero-cost collar derivative entered into to protect the value of the Company’s investment in Sprint Nextel Corporation, and (ii) $3 million of foreign currency gains, partially offset by $4 million of investment impairment charges. The net expense in the third quarter of 2005 was primarily comprised of: (i) $137 million of debt retirement costs, relating to the Company’s repurchase of an aggregate principal amount of $1 billion of long-term debt through cash tender offers during the quarter, (ii) $14 million of foreign currency losses, and (iii) $9 million of investment impairment charges, partially offset by a $58 million gain due to an increase in the market value of variable forward purchase agreements entered into to protect the Company’s investment in Nextel common stock prior to the Sprint Nextel merger.
 
Effective Tax Rate
 
The effective tax rate was 37% in the third quarter of 2006, representing a $428 million net tax expense, compared to 23% in the third quarter of 2005, representing a $522 million net tax expense. During the third quarter of 2006, the Company recorded $17 million in net tax benefits, comprised of: (i)  a $30 million incremental tax benefit relating to the contribution of appreciated equity holdings to the Company’s charitable foundation, partially offset by (ii) a $13 million tax expense driven by a mix shift in estimated profits towards higher-tax jurisdictions. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2006, the Company incurred nondeductible IPR&D charges relating to acquisitions and restructuring charges in low tax jurisdictions that caused an increase in the Company’s effective tax rate. The Company’s effective tax rate, excluding both the net tax benefits and the nondeductible IPR&D charges and restructuring charges in low tax jurisdictions, remained 37%.
 
During the third quarter of 2005, the Company recorded $333 million in net tax benefits relating to: (i) the repatriation of foreign earnings under provisions of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, (ii) reassessment of its


32


Table of Contents

tax liability on undistributed foreign earnings, and (iii) tax benefits associated with the sale of Clinical Micro Sensors, a subsidiary of the Company. The Company’s tax rate for the third quarter of 2005 excluding the tax adjustments was 38%.
 
Earnings from Continuing Operations
 
The Company had earnings from continuing operations before income taxes of $1.2 billion in the third quarter of 2006, compared with earnings from continuing operations before income taxes of $2.3 billion in the third quarter of 2005. After taxes, the Company had earnings from continuing operations of $727 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2006, compared with earnings from continuing operations of $1.7 billion, or $0.68 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2005.
 
The decrease in earnings from continuing operations before income taxes in the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005 is primarily attributed to: (i) a $1.3 billion decrease in gains on the sale of investments and businesses, (ii) a $255 million increase in SG&A expenses, (iii) a $157 million increase in Other charges (income), and (iv) a $145 million increase in R&D expenditures. These negative impacts on operating earnings were partially offset by: (i) a $445 million increase in gross margin, primarily driven by the Mobile Devices segment and aided by the Connected Home Solution segment, (ii) a $193 million increase in income classified as Other, as presented in Other income (expense), and (iii) a $70 million increase in net interest income.
 
Results of Operations — Nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to nine months ended October 1, 2005
 
Net Sales
 
Net sales were $31.1 billion in the first nine months of 2006, up 23% compared to $25.2 billion in the first nine months of 2005. The increase in net sales includes: (i) a $5.7 billion increase in net sales by the Mobile Devices segment, reflecting a 50% increase in unit shipments, primarily driven by strong demand for GSM handsets, partially offset by an 8% decline in ASP, and (ii) a $179 million increase in net sales by the Connected Home Solutions segment, primarily due to increased demand for HD/DVR set-top boxes, partially offset by a $126 million decrease in net sales by the Networks and Enterprise segment, reflecting lower net sales in North America and Asia, partially offset by higher net sales in EMEA and Latin America.
 
Gross Margin
 
Gross margin was $9.7 billion, or 31.1% of net sales, in the first nine months of 2006, compared to $8.3 billion, or 32.8% of net sales, in the first nine months of 2005. This increase in gross margin was primarily driven by the Mobile Devices segment, due to: (i) the 50% increase in unit shipments, (ii) savings from supply chain cost-reduction initiatives, and (iii) increased income from technology and platform licensing, partially offset by an 8% decline in ASP. The Connected Home Solutions segment also achieved higher gross margin in the first nine months of 2006 compared to the first nine months of 2005, primarily due to an increase in net sales. Gross margin decreased in the Networks and Enterprise segment, primarily due to the decline in net sales.
 
In the first nine months of 2006 compared to the first nine months of 2005, gross margin as a percentage of net sales: (i) decreased in the Networks and Enterprise segment, and (ii) increased in the Connected Home Solutions and Mobile Devices segments. The Company’s overall gross margin as a percentage of net sales can be impacted by the proportion of overall net sales generated by its various businesses. The decrease in overall gross margin as a percentage of net sales in the first nine months of 2006 compared to the first nine months of 2005 can be partially attributed to the fact that an increased percentage of the Company’s net sales were generated by the Mobile Devices segment, which generates lower gross margins than the overall Company average.
 
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
 
SG&A expenses increased 26% to $3.5 billion, or 11.2% of net sales, in the first nine months of 2006, compared to $2.8 billion, or 10.9% of net sales, in the first nine months of 2005. All three of the Company’s operating segments had increased SG&A expenses in the first nine months of 2006 compared to the first nine

The decrease in earnings from continuing operations before income taxes in the first nine months of 2006 compared to the first nine months of 2005 is primarily attributed to: (i) a $1.7 billion decrease in gains on the sale of investments and businesses, (ii) a $713 million increase in SG&A expenses, and (iii) a $422 million increase in R&D expenditures. These negative impacts on operating earnings were partially offset by: (i) a $1.4 billion increase in gross margin, primarily due to the $5.9 billion increase in net sales, (ii) a $288 million increase in income classified as Other, as presented in Other income (expense), (iii) a $211 million increase in net interest income, and (iv) a $188 million improvement in Other charges (income).
 
Reorganization of Businesses
 
The Company maintains a formal Involuntary Severance Plan (the “Severance Plan”) which permits the Company to offer to eligible employees severance benefits based on years of service and employment grade level in the event that employment is involuntarily terminated as a result of a reduction-in-force or restructuring. Each separate reduction-in-force has qualified for severance benefits under the Severance Plan and, therefore, such benefits are accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 112, Accounting for Postemployment Benefits (“SFAS 112”). Under the provisions of SFAS 112, the Company recognizes termination benefits based on formulas per the Severance Plan at the point in time that future settlement is probable and can be reasonably estimated based on estimates prepared at the time a restructuring plan is approved by management. Exit costs primarily consist of future minimum lease payments on vacated facilities. At each reporting date, the

Table of Contents

Company evaluates its accruals for exit costs and employee separation costs to ensure that the accruals are still appropriate. In certain circumstances, accruals are no longer required because of efficiencies in carrying out the plans or because employees previously identified for separation resigned from the Company and did not receive severance or were redeployed due to circumstances not foreseen when the original plans were initiated. The Company reverses accruals through the income statement line item where the original charges were recorded when it is determined they are no longer required.
 
The Company expects to realize cost-saving benefits of approximately $29 million during the remaining three months of 2006 from the plans that were initiated during the first nine months of 2006, representing: (i) $13 million of savings in R&D expenditures, (ii) $12 million of savings in SG&A expenses, and (iii) $4 million of savings in Costs of sales. Beyond 2006, the Company expects the reorganization plans initiated during the first nine months of 2006 to provide annualized cost savings of approximately $202 million, representing: (i) $83 million of savings in R&D expenditures, (ii) $72 million of savings in SG&A expenses, and (iii) $47 million of savings in Costs of sales.
 
2006 Charges
 
During the first nine months of 2006, the Company committed to implement various productivity improvement plans aimed principally at: (i) reducing costs in its supply-chain activities, (ii) integrating the former Networks segment and Government and Enterprise Mobility Solutions segment into one organization, the Networks and Enterprise segment, and (iii) reducing other operating expenses, primarily relating to engineering and development costs.
 
For the three months ended September 30, 2006, the Company recorded net reorganization of business charges of $58 million, including $1 million of reversals in Costs of sales and $59 million of charges under Other charges (income) in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Included in the aggregate $58 million are charges of $50 million for employee separation costs, $8 million for fixed asset impairment charges and $6 million for exit costs, partially offset by $6 million of reversals for accruals no longer needed.
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, the Company recorded net reorganization of business charges of $166 million, including $41 million of charges in Costs of sales and $125 million of charges under Other charges (income) in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Included in the aggregate $166 million are charges of $166 million for employee separation costs, $14 million for fixed asset impairment charges, and $6 million for exit costs, partially offset by $20 million of reversals for accruals no longer needed.

Exit Costs — Lease Terminations
 
At January 1, 2006, the Company had an accrual of $50 million for exit costs attributable to lease terminations. The 2006 additional charges of $6 million are primarily related to a lease cancellation by the Networks and Enterprise segment. The 2006 adjustments of $6 million represent reversals of accruals no longer needed. The $15 million used in 2006 reflects cash payments. The remaining accrual of $35 million, which is included in Accrued liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2006, represents future cash payments for lease termination obligations.
 
Employee Separation Costs
 
At January 1, 2006, the Company had an accrual of $53 million for employee separation costs, representing the severance costs for approximately 1,600 employees. The 2006 additional charges of $166 million represent severance costs for approximately an additional 3,700 employees, of which 1,800 were direct employees and 1,900 were indirect employees. The adjustments of $14 million represent reversals of accruals no longer needed.
 
During the first nine months of 2006, approximately 2,200 employees, of which 1,200 were direct employees and 1,000 were indirect employees, were separated from the Company. The $82 million used in 2006 reflects cash payments to these separated employees. The remaining accrual of $123 million, which is included in Accrued liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2006, is expected to be paid to approximately 3,100 separated employees.
 
2005 Charges
 
For the three months ended October 1, 2005, the Company recorded net reorganization of business charges of $86 million, including $31 million of charges in Costs of sales and $55 million of charges under Other charges (income) in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Included in the aggregate $86 million are charges of $68 million for employee separation costs, $15 million for fixed asset impairment charges and $5 million for exit costs, partially offset by $2 million of reversals for accruals no longer needed.
 
For the nine months ended October 1, 2005, the Company recorded net reorganization of business charges of $95 million, including $37 million of charges in Costs of sales and $58 million of charges under Other charges (income) in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations. Included in the aggregate $95 million are charges of $85 million for employee separation costs, $15 million for fixed asset impairment charges and $5 million for exit costs, partially offset by $10 million of reversals for reserves no longer needed.

Exit Costs — Lease Terminations
 
At January 1, 2005, the Company had an accrual of $73 million for exit costs attributable to lease terminations. The 2005 additional charges of $5 million were primarily related to a lease cancellation by the Networks and Enterprise segment. The 2005 adjustments of $5 million represent $4 million of translation adjustments and $1 million of reversals of accruals no longer needed. The $17 million used in 2005 reflected cash payments. The remaining accrual of $56 million was included in Accrued liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at October 1, 2005.
 
Employee Separation Costs
 
At January 1, 2005, the Company had an accrual of $41 million for employee separation costs, representing the severance costs for approximately 400 employees. The 2005 additional charges of $85 million represented additional costs for approximately 2,200 employees. The adjustments of $10 million represented reversals of accruals no longer needed.
 
During the first nine months of 2005, approximately 1,100 employees were separated from the Company. The $42 million used in 2005 reflected cash payments to these separated employees. The remaining accrual of $74 million was included in Accrued liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at October 1, 2005.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As highlighted in the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company’s liquidity and available capital resources are impacted by four key components: (i) cash and cash equivalents, (ii) operating activities, (iii) investing activities, and (iv) financing activities.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
At September 30, 2006, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents (which are highly-liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less) aggregated $3.0 billion, a decrease of $759 million compared to $3.8 billion at December 31, 2005. At September 30, 2006, $470 million of this amount was held in the U.S. and $2.5 billion was held by the Company or its subsidiaries in other countries. Repatriation of some of these funds could be subject to delay and could have potential adverse tax consequences.
 
Operating Activities
 
In the first nine months of 2006, the Company generated cash flow from operations of $2.8 billion, compared to $2.5 billion generated in the first nine months of 2005. The primary positive contributors to cash flow from operations in the first nine months of 2006 were: (i) earnings (adjusted for non-cash items) of $4.1 billion, and (ii) a $803 million increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. These positive contributors to operating cash flow were partially offset by: (i) a $1.5 billion increase in accounts receivable, (ii) $308 million increase in other current assets, (iii) a $272 million increase in inventories, and (iv) a $122 million increase in other assets and liabilities.
 
Accounts Receivable:  The Company’s net accounts receivable were $7.1 billion at September 30, 2006, compared to $5.6 billion at December 31, 2005. The Company’s days sales outstanding (“DSO”), including net long-term receivables, were 61 days at September 30, 2006, compared to 51 days at December 31, 2005 and 54 days at October 1, 2005. The Company’s businesses sell their products in a variety of markets throughout the world. Payment terms can vary by market type and geographic location. Accordingly, the Company’s level of accounts receivable and DSO can be impacted by the timing and level of sales that are made by its various businesses and by the geographic locations in which those sales are made. In addition, as further described under “Sales of Receivables and Loans,” the Company sells receivables to third parties in transactions that qualify as “true sales.” The level of accounts receivable and DSO can be impacted by the volume and timing of the sale of receivables to third parties.
 
Inventory:  The Company’s net inventory was $2.7 billion at September 30, 2006, compared to $2.4 billion at December 31, 2005. The Company’s inventory turns were 10.6 at September 30, 2006, compared to 11.3 at December 31, 2005 and 11.2 at October 1, 2005. Inventory turns were calculated using an annualized rolling three

months of cost of sales method. Inventory management continues to be an area of focus as the Company balances the need to maintain strategic inventory levels to ensure competitive delivery performance to its customers against the risk of inventory obsolescence due to rapidly changing technology and customer spending requirements.
 
Reorganization of Business:  The Company has implemented reorganization of business plans. Cash payments for exit costs and employee separations in connection with these plans were $97 million in the first nine months of 2006, as compared to $59 million in the first nine months of 2005. Of the $158 million reorganization of business accrual at September 30, 2006, $123 million relates to employee separation costs and is expected to be paid in 2006. The remaining $35 million in accruals relate to lease termination obligations that are expected to be paid over a number of years.
 
Defined Benefit Plan Contributions:  The Company expects to make cash contributions totaling approximately $275 million to its U.S. pension plans and $119 million to its non-U.S. pension plans during 2006. During the first nine months of 2006, the Company has contributed an aggregate of $205 million and $29 million to its U.S. and non-U.S. pension plans, respectively. The Company also expects to make cash contributions totaling approximately $45 million to its postretirement healthcare fund during 2006. During the first nine months of 2006, the Company has contributed an aggregate of $23 million to its postretirement healthcare fund.
 
Investing Activities
 
The most significant components of the Company’s investing activities include: (i) sales of investments and businesses, (ii) strategic acquisitions and investments, (iii) Sigma Funds investments, (iv) capital expenditures, (v) short-term investments, and (vi) sales of property, plant and equipment.
 
Net cash used for investing activities was $998 million for the first nine months of 2006, compared to net cash used of $1.4 billion in the first nine months of 2005. This $406 million decrease in cash used was primarily due to: (i) a $1.3 billion decrease in net purchases of Sigma Funds investments, (ii) a $74 million increase in proceeds from the sales of investment and businesses, and (iii) a $21 million increase in proceeds received from the disposition of property, plant and equipment, partially offset by: (i) an $882 million increase in cash used for acquisition and investments, (ii) a $76 million increase in net purchases of short-term investments, and (iii) a $4 million increase in capital expenditures.
 
Sales of Investments and Businesses:  The Company received $1.2 billion in proceeds from the sales of investments and businesses in the first nine months of 2006, compared to proceeds of $1.1 billion in the first nine months of 2005. The $1.2 billion in proceeds in the first nine months of 2006 were primarily comprised of: (i) $919 million in proceeds from the sale of substantially all of the automotive business, and (ii) $175 million from the sale of the Company’s remaining shares in Telus Corporation. The $1.1 billion in proceeds in the first nine months of 2005 were primarily comprised of: (i) $679 million from the sale of a portion of the Company’s remaining shares in Nextel Communications, Inc. (“Nextel”), (ii) $205 million from the sale of a portion of the Company’s remaining shares in Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation, and (iii) $96 million received in connection with the merger of Sprint Corporation and Nextel.
 
Strategic Acquisitions and Investments:  The Company used cash for acquisitions and new investment activities of $1.0 billion in the first nine months of 2006, compared to cash used of $140 million in the first nine months of 2005. The largest component of the $1.0 billion in cash used during the first nine months of 2006 was: (i) $300 million for an equity investment in Clearwire, Inc., (ii) $193 million for the acquisition of TTP Communications plc by the Mobile Devices segment, (iii) $181 million for the acquisition of Broadbus Technologies, Inc. by the Connected Home Solutions segment, (iv) $108 million for the acquisition of Kreatel Communications AB by the Connected Home Solutions segment, (v) the acquisition of Orthogon Systems by the Networks and Enterprise segment, and (vi) the acquisition of NextNet Wireless, Inc. by the Networks and Enterprise segment. The largest components of the $140 million in cash used during the first nine months of 2005 were: (i) the acquisition of Sendo by the Mobile Devices segment, (ii) the acquisition of Ucentric Systems, Inc. by the Connected Home Solutions segment, and (iii) funding of joint ventures formed by Motorola and Comcast that focus on developing the next generation of conditional access technologies.

Sigma Funds:  The Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries invest most of their excess cash in two funds (the “Sigma Funds”), which are funds similar to a money market fund. The Company used $749 million in net cash for purchases of Sigma Funds investments in the first nine months of 2006, compared to $2.0 billion in net cash used for purchases of Sigma Funds investments in the first nine months of 2005. The Sigma Funds balance was $11.6 billion at September 30, 2006, compared to $10.9 billion at December 31, 2005. At September 30, 2006, $8.1 billion of the Sigma Funds investments were held in the U.S. and $3.5 billion were held by the Company or its subsidiaries in other countries.
 
The Sigma Funds portfolios are managed by five major outside investment management firms and include investments in high quality (rated at least A/A-1 by S&P or A2/P-1 by Moody’s at purchase date), U.S. dollar-denominated debt obligations including certificates of deposit, bankers’ acceptances and fixed time deposits, government obligations, asset-backed securities and commercial paper or short-term corporate obligations. The Sigma Funds investment policies require that floating rate instruments acquired must have a maturity at purchase date that does not exceed thirty-six months with an interest rate reset at least annually. The average maturity of the investments held by the funds must be 120 days or less with the actual average maturity of the investments being 59 days and 74 days at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. Certain investments with maturities beyond one year have been classified as short-term based on their highly-liquid nature and because such marketable securities represent the investment of cash that is available for current operations.
 
Capital Expenditures:  Capital expenditures in the first nine months of 2006 were $390 million, compared to $386 million in the first nine months of 2005. The Company’s emphasis in making capital expenditures is to focus on strategic investments driven by customer demand and new design capability.
 
Short-Term Investments:  At September 30, 2006, the Company had $211 million in short-term investments (which are highly-liquid fixed-income investments with an original maturity greater than three months but less than one year), compared to $144 million of short-term investments at December 31, 2005.
 
Available-For-Sale Securities:  In addition to available cash and cash equivalents, Sigma Fund investments and short-term investments, the Company views its available-for-sale securities as an additional source of liquidity. The majority of these securities represent investments in technology companies and, accordingly, the fair market values of these securities are subject to substantial price volatility. In addition, the realizable value of these securities is subject to market and other conditions. At September 30, 2006, the Company’s available-for-sale securities portfolio had an approximate fair market value of $735 million, which represented a cost basis of $894 million and a net unrealized loss of $159 million. At December 31, 2005, the Company’s available-for-sale securities portfolio had an approximate fair market value of $1.2 billion, which represented a cost basis of $1.1 billion and a net unrealized gain of $157 million.
 
Sprint Nextel Investment:  During the first quarter of 2006, the Company entered into a zero-cost collar derivative (the “Sprint Nextel Derivative”) to protect itself economically against price fluctuations in its 37.6 million shares of Sprint Nextel Corporation (“Sprint Nextel”) non-voting common stock. During the second quarter of 2006, as a result of Sprint Nextel’s spin-off of Embarq Corporation through a dividend to Sprint Nextel shareholders, the Company received approximately 1.9 million shares of Embarq Corporation. The floor and ceiling prices of the Sprint Nextel Derivative were adjusted accordingly. If the Sprint Nextel shares and the Sprint Nextel Derivative, as adjusted, are held to the Sprint Nextel Derivative’s maturity, the Company would receive cumulative proceeds of no less than $853 million and no more than $1.1 billion from the sale of its 37.6 million Sprint Nextel shares and the settlement of the Sprint Nextel Derivative. The Sprint Nextel Derivative was not designated as a hedge under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. Accordingly, to reflect the change in fair value of the Sprint Nextel Derivative, the Company recorded income of $93 million and $165 million for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively, both included in Other income (expense) in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.
 
Financing Activities
 
The most significant components of the Company’s financing activities are: (i) the purchase of the Company’s common stock under its share repurchase program, (ii) the issuances of stock due to the exercise of employee stock


40


Table of Contents

options and purchases under the employee stock purchase plan, (iii) the payment of dividends, (iv) excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation, (v) net proceeds from commercial paper and short-term borrowings, (vi) distributions to discontinued operations, and (vii) repayment of debt.
 
Net cash used for financing activities was $2.6 billion in the first nine months of 2006, compared to net cash used for financing activities of $1.0 billion in the first nine months of 2005. Cash used for financing activities in the first nine months of 2006 was primarily: (i) $3.1 billion of cash used for the purchase of the Company’s common stock under the share repurchase program, (ii) $322 million of cash used to pay dividends, and (iii) $34 million paid to discontinued operations for interim funding requirements associated with the automotive business prior to the sale, partially offset by proceeds of: (i) $715 million received from the issuance of common stock in connection with the Company’s employee stock option plans and employee stock purchase plan, (ii) $149 million in excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation, and (iii) $63 million in cash received from the issuance of commercial paper and short-term borrowings.
 
Cash used for financing activities in the first nine months of 2005 was primarily attributable to: (i) $1.1 billion of cash used to repay debt, (ii) $517 million of cash used for the purchase of the Company’s common stock under the share repurchase program, and (iii) $294 million of cash used to pay dividends, partially offset by proceeds of $839 million received from the issuance of common stock in connection with the Company’s employee stock option plans and employee stock purchase plan.
 
Short-term Debt:  At September 30, 2006, the Company’s outstanding notes payable and current portion of long-term debt was $508 million, compared to $448 million at December 31, 2005. Net cash received for the issuance of commercial paper and short-term borrowings was $63 million in the first nine months of 2006, compared to net cash received of $25 million in the first nine months of 2005. At both September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the Company had outstanding commercial paper of $300 million. The Company currently expects its outstanding commercial paper balances to average approximately $300 million throughout 2006.
 
Long-term Debt:  At both September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the Company had outstanding long-term debt of $3.8 billion. Given the Company’s cash position, it may from time to time seek to opportunistically retire certain of its outstanding debt through open market cash purchases, privately-negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, the Company’s liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The Company has $1.3 billion of debt, including current maturities, that is scheduled to mature in 2007.
 
Many of the factors that affect the Company’s ability to access the capital markets, such as the liquidity of the overall capital markets and the current state of the economy, in particular the telecommunications industry, are outside of the Company’s control. There can be no assurances that the Company will continue to have access to the capital markets on favorable terms.
 
Stock Repurchase Program:  In May 2005, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized the Company to purchase up to $4 billion of its outstanding common stock over a 36-month period ending in May 2008, subject to market conditions (the “2005 Stock Repurchase Program”). In July 2006, the Company entered into an accelerated stock buyback agreement to repurchase approximately $1.2 billion of its outstanding common stock (the “ASB”). During the quarter, the Company received a total of 49.2 million shares under the ASB, representing the minimum number of shares to be received under the ASB. On October 31, 2006, the Company received an additional 1.3 million shares as the final adjustment under the ASB. The total shares purchased under the ASB were 50.5 million shares.
 
During the third quarter of 2006, the Company paid an aggregate of $1.5 billion, including transaction costs, to repurchase 62 million shares (including shares received under the ASB during the quarter) at an average price of $23.61 per share. During the first nine months of 2006, the Company has paid $3.1 billion, including transaction costs, to repurchase 138 million shares at an average price of $22.58 per share. From the inception of the 2005 Stock Repurchase Program in May 2005 through the end of the third quarter of 2006, the Company has paid a total of $4.0 billion, including transaction costs, to repurchase 180 million shares at an average price of $22.20 per share. All repurchased shares have been retired. Repurchases under the ASB, together with all repurchases made prior to the date thereof, completed the repurchases authorized under the 2005 Stock Repurchase Program.

Table of Contents

On July 24, 2006, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has authorized the Company to repurchase up to an additional $4.5 billion of its outstanding shares of common stock over a 36-month period ending on July 21, 2009, subject to market conditions (the “2006 Stock Repurchase Program”). Through the end of the third quarter, no shares have been repurchased under the 2006 Stock Repurchase Program.
 
Credit Ratings:  Three independent credit rating agencies, Fitch Investors Service (“Fitch”), Moody’s Investor Services (“Moody’s”), and Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”), assign ratings to the Company’s short-term and long-term debt. The following chart reflects the current ratings assigned to the Company’s senior unsecured non-credit enhanced long-term debt and the Company’s commercial paper by each of these agencies.

  A−     stable       F-1     July 19, 2006 (upgrade)
S&P
  A−     stable       A-1     June 26, 2006 (upgrade)
 
In October 2006, Moody’s upgraded the Company’s long-term debt rating to “Baa1” with a positive outlook from “Baa2” with a stable outlook. Moody’s also affirmed the Company’s “P-2” short-term debt rating. In July 2006, Fitch upgraded the Company’s long-term debt rating to “A−”with a stable outlook from “BBB+” with a positive outlook. Fitch also upgraded the Company’s short-term debt rating to “F-1” from “F-2”. There were no other changes in the Company’s debt ratings during the third quarter of 2006.
 
The Company’s debt ratings are considered “investment grade.” If the Company’s senior long-term debt were rated lower than “BBB−” by S&P or Fitch or “Baa3” by Moody’s (which would be a decline of three levels from current Moody’s ratings), the Company’s long-term debt would no longer be considered “investment grade.” If this were to occur, the terms on which the Company could borrow money would become more onerous. The Company would also have to pay higher fees related to its domestic revolving credit facility. The Company has never borrowed under its domestic revolving credit facilities.
 
The Company continues to have access to the commercial paper and long-term debt markets. The Company has maintained commercial paper balances of between $300 million and $500 million for the past four years.
 
As further described under “Customer Financing Arrangements” below, for many years the Company has utilized a number of receivables programs to sell a broadly-diversified group of short-term receivables to third parties. Certain of the short-term receivables are sold to a multi-seller commercial paper conduit. During the third quarter of 2006, the aggregate value of short-term receivables allowed to be outstanding with the conduit at any time was increased to $500 million from $400 million. The obligations of the conduit to continue to purchase receivables under this short-term receivables program could be terminated if the Company’s long-term debt was rated lower than “BB+” by S&P or “Ba1” by Moody’s (which would be a decline of four levels from the current Moody’s rating). If this short-term receivables program were terminated, the Company would no longer be able to sell its short-term receivables to the conduit in this manner, but it would not have to repurchase previously-sold receivables.
 
Credit Facilities
 
At September 30, 2006, the Company’s total domestic and non-U.S. credit facilities totaled $3.1 billion, of which $177 million was considered utilized. These facilities are principally comprised of: (i) a $1.0 billion three-year revolving domestic credit facility maturing in May 2007 (the “3-Year Credit Facility”) which is not utilized, and (ii) $2.1 billion of non-U.S. credit facilities (of which $177 million was considered utilized at September 30, 2006). Unused availability under the existing credit facilities, together with available cash, cash equivalents, Sigma Funds balances and other sources of liquidity, are generally available to support outstanding commercial paper, which was $300 million at September 30, 2006.
 
In order to borrow funds under the 3-Year Credit Facility, the Company must be in compliance with various conditions, covenants and representations contained in the agreements. Important terms of the 3-Year Credit Facility include covenants relating to net interest coverage and total debt-to-book capitalization ratios. The Company was in compliance with the terms of the 3-Year Credit Facility at September 30, 2006. The Company has

never borrowed under its domestic revolving credit facilities. Utilization of the non-U.S. credit facilities may also be dependent on the Company’s ability to meet certain conditions at the time a borrowing is requested.
 
Customer Financing Commitments and Guarantees
 
Outstanding Commitments:  Certain purchasers of the Company’s infrastructure equipment continue to request that suppliers provide financing in connection with equipment purchases. Financing may include all or a portion of the purchase price of the equipment as well as working capital. Periodically, the Company makes commitments to provide financing to purchasers in connection with the sale of equipment. However, the Company’s obligation to provide financing is often conditioned on the issuance of a letter of credit in favor of the Company by a reputable bank to support the purchaser’s credit or a pre-existing commitment from a reputable bank to purchase the receivable from the Company. The Company had outstanding commitments to extend credit to third-parties totaling $358 million at September 30, 2006, compared to $689 million at December 31, 2005. Of these amounts, $204 million was supported by letters of credit or by bank commitments to purchase receivables at September 30, 2006, compared to $594 million at December 31, 2005.
 
Guarantees of Third-Party Debt:  In addition to providing direct financing to certain equipment customers, the Company also assists customers in obtaining financing directly from banks and other sources to fund equipment purchases. The Company had committed to provide financial guarantees relating to customer financing totaling $129 million and $140 million at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively (including $19 million and $66 million, respectively, relating to the sale of short-term receivables). Customer financing guarantees outstanding were $88 million and $79 million at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively (including $13 million and $42 million, respectively, relating to the sale of short-term receivables).
 
Customer Financing Arrangements
 
Outstanding Finance Receivables:  The Company had net finance receivables of $215 million at September 30, 2006, compared to $260 million at December 31, 2005 (net of allowances for losses of $7 million at September 30, 2006 and $12 million at December 31, 2005). These finance receivables are generally interest bearing, with rates ranging from 4% to 13%. Interest income recognized on finance receivables was $2 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2006 and October 1, 2005 and $6 million for both the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and October 1, 2005.
 
Telsim Loan:  On October 28, 2005, the Company entered into an agreement to resolve disputes regarding Telsim Mobil Telekomunikasyon Hizmetleri A.S. (“Telsim”) with Telsim and the government of Turkey. The government of Turkey and the Turkish Savings and Deposit Insurance Fund (“TMSF”) are third-party beneficiaries of the settlement agreement. In settlement of its claims, the Company received $500 million in cash in 2005 and $410 million in cash during the second quarter of 2006. The Company is permitted to, and will continue to, enforce its U.S. court judgment against the Uzan family, except in Turkey and three other countries.
 
Sales of Receivables and Loans:  From time to time, the Company sells short-term receivables, long-term loans and lease receivables under sales-type leases (collectively, “finance receivables”) to third parties in transactions that qualify as “true-sales.” Certain of these finance receivables are sold to third parties on a one-time, non-recourse basis, while others are sold to third parties under committed facilities that involve contractual commitments from these parties to purchase qualifying receivables up to an outstanding monetary limit. Committed facilities may be revolving in nature. Certain sales may be made through separate legal entities that are consolidated by the Company. The Company may or may not retain the obligation to service the sold finance receivables.
 
In the aggregate, at September 30, 2006, these committed facilities provided for up to $1.4 billion to be outstanding with the third parties at any time, as compared to up to $1.1 billion provided at December 31, 2005. As of September 30, 2006, $890 million of these committed facilities were utilized, compared to $585 million utilized at December 31, 2005. Certain events could cause one or more of these facilities to terminate. In addition, before receivables can be sold under certain of the committed facilities they may need to meet contractual requirements, such as credit quality or insurability.

Total finance receivables sold by the Company were $1.8 billion and $4.6 billion for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively (including $1.7 billion and $4.4 billion, respectively, of short-term receivables), compared to $1.0 billion and $2.9 billion sold for the three months and nine months ended October 1, 2005, respectively (including $918 million and $2.7 billion, respectively, of short-term receivables). As of September 30, 2006, there were $1.2 billion of these sold receivables outstanding for which the Company retained servicing obligations (including $967 million of short-term receivables), compared to $1.0 billion outstanding at December 31, 2005 (including $838 million of short-term receivables).
 
Under certain of the receivables programs, the value of the receivables sold is covered by credit insurance obtained from independent insurance companies, less deductibles or self-insurance requirements under the policies (with the Company retaining credit exposure for the remaining portion). The Company’s total credit exposure to outstanding short-term receivables that have been sold was $19 million and $66 million at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. Reserves of $4 million were recorded for potential losses on sold receivables at both September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005.
 
Other Contingencies
 
Potential Contractual Damage Claims in Excess of Underlying Contract Value:  In certain circumstances, our businesses may enter into contracts with customers pursuant to which the damages that could be claimed by the other party for failed performance might exceed the revenue the Company receives from the contract. Contracts with these sorts of uncapped damage provisions are fairly rare, but individual contracts could still represent meaningful risk. There is a possibility that a damage claim by a counterparty to one of these contracts could result in expenses to the Company that are far in excess of the revenue received from the counterparty in connection with the contract.
 
Legal Matters:  The Company has several lawsuits filed against it relating to the Iridium program, as further described under Part II, Item 1: Legal Proceedings of this document. The Company has not reserved for any potential liability that may arise as a result of litigation related to the Iridium program. While the still pending cases are in preliminary stages and the outcomes are not predictable, an unfavorable outcome of one or more of these cases could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations.
 
The Company is a defendant in various other lawsuits, including product-related suits, and is subject to various claims which arise in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, and other than discussed above with respect to the still pending Iridium cases, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

Three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to three months ended October 1, 2005
 
In the third quarter of 2006, the segment’s net sales increased 26% to $7.0 billion, compared to $5.6 billion in the third quarter of 2005. The increase in net sales was driven by: (i) a 39% increase in unit shipments, primarily driven by strong demand for GSM handsets and reflecting consumers’ desire for the segment’s compelling products that combine innovative style and leading technology, and (ii) increased revenue from technology and platform licensing. The increase in unit shipments was partially offset by a 12% decrease in average selling price (“ASP”). On a product technology basis, net sales of products for GSM and CDMA technologies increased and net sales of products for iDEN and UMTS technologies decreased. On a geographic basis, net sales increased in North Asia, High Growth (defined as countries in the Middle East, Africa, Southeast Asia and India), Latin America and North America, and decreased in Europe.
 
The segment’s operating earnings increased to $819 million in the third quarter of 2006, compared to operating earnings of $593 million in the third quarter of 2005. The 38% increase in operating earnings was primarily due to an increase in gross margin, driven by: (i) increased savings from supply chain cost-reduction initiatives, (ii) the 39% increase in unit shipments, and (iii) increased income from technology and platform licensing, partially offset by: (i) the 12% decline in ASP, and (ii) an unfavorable shift in product mix. The increase in gross margin was partially offset by: (i) an increase in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses, primarily driven by an increase in marketing expenses to support higher net sales and promote brand awareness, (ii) an increase in research and development (“R&D”) expenditures, as a result of an increase in developmental engineering for new products and software, as well as ongoing investment in next-generation technologies, and (iii) a $16 million charge for acquisition-related in-process research and development. The segment’s industry typically experiences short life cycles for new products. Therefore, it is vital to the segment’s success that new, compelling products are constantly introduced. Accordingly, a strong commitment to R&D is required to fuel long-term growth. As a percentage of net sales, both R&D expenditures and SG&A expenses increased as compared to the third quarter of 2005.
 
Unit shipments in the third quarter of 2006 increased 39% to 53.7 million units, compared to 38.7 million units in the third quarter of 2005. Due to the segment’s increase in unit shipments outpacing the overall market growth, the segment believes that it expanded its global handset market share to an estimated 22.4% in the third quarter of 2006, an increase of 3.8 percentage points versus the third quarter of 2005 and 0.3 percentage points versus the second quarter of 2006.
 
In the third quarter of 2006, ASP decreased approximately 12% compared to the third quarter of 2005 and by approximately 10% sequentially from the second quarter of 2006. ASP is impacted by numerous factors, including product mix, market conditions and competitive product offerings, and ASP trends often vary over time.
 
During the third quarter of 2006, the segment completed the acquisition of TTP Communications plc (“TTPCom”). TTPCom develops intellectual property used in the design and manufacture of wireless communication terminals and has established a leading position providing protocol stack software that offers rapid customization of handsets through its AJAR applications framework.
 
Nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to nine months ended October 1, 2005
 
In the first nine months of 2006, the segment’s net sales increased 38% to $20.6 billion, compared to $14.9 billion in the first nine months of 2005. The increase in net sales was driven by a 50% increase in unit shipments, primarily driven by strong demand for GSM handsets and reflecting consumers’ desire for the segment’s compelling products that combine innovative style and leading technology, partially offset by an 8% decrease in ASP. On a product technology basis, net sales of products for GSM, CDMA and UMTS technologies increased and net sales of products for iDEN technology decreased. On a geographic basis, net sales increased in High Growth, North Asia, North America and Latin America, and decreased in Europe.
 
The segment’s operating earnings increased to $2.3 billion in the first nine months of 2006, compared to operating earnings of $1.5 billion in the first nine months of 2005. The 52% increase in operating earnings was primarily due to an increase in gross margin, driven primarily by: (i) the 50% increase in unit shipments, (ii) savings from supply chain cost-reduction initiatives, and (iii) increased income from technology and platform licensing, partially offset by the 8% decline in ASP. The increase in gross margin was partially offset by: (i) an increase in

SG&A expenses, primarily driven by an increase in marketing expenses to support higher net sales and promote brand awareness, and (ii) an increase in R&D expenditures, as a result of an increase in developmental engineering for new product development and software, as well as ongoing investment in next-generation technologies. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses increased and R&D expenditures decreased as compared to the first nine months of 2005.
 
Networks and Enterprise Segment
 
The Networks and Enterprise segment designs, manufactures, sells, installs and services: (i) analog and digital two-way radio, voice and data communications products and systems, as well as wireless broadband systems, to a wide range of public safety, government, utility, transportation and other worldwide enterprise markets (referred to as the “private networks” market), and (ii) cellular infrastructure systems and wireless broadband systems to public carriers and other wireless service providers (referred to as the “public networks” market). For the third quarters of 2006 and 2005, the segment’s net sales represented 26% and 31% of the Company’s consolidated net sales, respectively. For the first nine months of 2006 and 2005, the segment’s net sales represented 26% and 33% of the Company’s consolidated net sales, respectively.

Net sales were $2.8 billion in the third quarters of both 2005 and 2006. The slight increase in net sales was primarily driven by higher net sales in North America and Latin America, partially offset by lower net sales in the Europe, Middle East and Africa region (“EMEA”) and Asia. Net sales to the private networks market increased in all regions, driven by increased worldwide demand for enhanced mission critical communications. In the public networks market, net sales: (i) decreased in EMEA, due to lower demand for GSM infrastructure equipment, (ii) decreased in Asia, reflecting lower demand for GSM infrastructure equipment due, in part, to delays in the granting of 3G licenses in China that have led service providers to slow their near-term capital investment, and (iii) increased in North America, primarily due to increased demand for cellular infrastructure equipment and related services.
 
The segment reported operating earnings of $378 million in the third quarter of 2006, compared to operating earnings of $465 million in the third quarter of 2005. The 19% decrease in operating earnings was primarily due to: (i) a decrease in gross margin, reflecting an unfavorable product/regional mix and pricing pressure in the public networks market, and (ii) an increase in reorganization of business charges, primarily relating to employee severance costs, partially offset by a decrease in R&D expenditures. The segment’s gross margin percentages differ among its services, software and equipment products. Accordingly, the aggregate gross margin of the segment can fluctuate from period to period depending upon the relative mix of sales in the given period. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses increased and R&D expenditures decreased as compared to the third quarter of 2005.
 
On September 19, 2006, the Company announced its intention to acquire Symbol Technologies, Inc., a leading provider of portable bar code scanners and customized handheld computers.
 
Nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to nine months ended October 1, 2005
 
In the first nine months of 2006, the segment’s net sales decreased 2% to $8.2 billion, compared to $8.3 billion in the first nine months of 2005. The 2% decrease in net sales was primarily driven by lower net sales in North America and Asia, partially offset by higher net sales in EMEA and Latin America. Net sales to the public networks market: (i) decreased in Asia, due, in part, to delays in the granting of 3G licenses in China that have led service providers to slow their near-term capital investment, (ii) decreased in North America, primarily due to customer expenditures returning to historic trends compared to an exceptionally strong first nine months of 2005, and (iii) increased in EMEA, primarily due to increased demand for cellular infrastructure equipment and related

services. In the private networks market, net sales were up in all regions, driven by increased demand for enhanced mission critical communications systems.
 
The segment reported operating earnings of $1.1 billion in the first nine months of 2006, compared to operating earnings of $1.4 billion in the first nine months of 2005. The 23% decrease in operating earnings was primarily due to: (i) a decrease in gross margin, primarily related to a decline in net sales, due to a highly favorable product/regional mix of sales in the first nine months of 2005, (ii) an increase in reorganization of business charges, primarily related to employee severance, and (iii) an increase in R&D expenditures, driven by increased investment in next-generation technologies across the segment. As a percentage of net sales, both R&D expenditures and SG&A expenses increased as compared to the first nine months of 2005.
 
Connected Home Solutions Segment
 
The Connected Home Solutions segment designs, manufactures and sells a wide variety of broadband products, including: (i) set-top boxes for cable television, Internet Protocol (“IP”) video and broadcast networks (“digital entertainment set-top devices”) and digital systems, (ii) high speed data products, including cable modems and cable modem termination systems, and IP-based telephony products, (iii) hybrid fiber coaxial network transmission systems used by cable television operators, (iv) digital satellite program distribution systems, (v) direct-to-home satellite networks and private networks for business communications, (vi) advanced video communications products, and (vii) fiber-to-the-premise and fiber-to-the-node transmission systems supporting high-speed data, video and voice. For the third quarters of both 2006 and 2005, the segment’s net sales represented 8% of the Company’s consolidated net sales, respectively. For the first nine months of 2006 and 2005, the segment’s net sales represented 8% and 9% of the Company’s consolidated net sales, respectively.

In the third quarter of 2006, the segment’s net sales increased 9% to $812 million, compared to $743 million in the third quarter of 2005. The increase in net sales was primarily driven by increased demand for HD/DVR set-top boxes. Net sales increased in North America, Latin America and the Europe, Middle East and Africa region (“EMEA”), but decreased in Asia. Net sales in North America continue to comprise a significant portion of the segment’s business, accounting for 84% of the segment’s total net sales in the third quarter of 2006, compared to 80% in the third quarter of 2005.
 
The segment reported operating earnings of $21 million in the third quarter of 2006, compared to operating earnings of $39 million in the third quarter of 2005. The 46% decrease in operating earnings was primarily due to: (i) an increase in Other charges (income) for an acquisition-related in-process research and development and a legal reserve, and (ii) an increase in R&D expenditures, primarily related to developmental engineering expenditures, partially offset by an increase in gross margin, driven primarily by a 9% increase in net sales. As a percentage of net sales, R&D expenditures increased while SG&A expenses decreased.
 
In the third quarter of 2006, net sales of digital entertainment set-top devices increased 25%, compared to the third quarter of 2005. Unit shipments of digital entertainment set-top devices increased by 54% to 2.4 million, while ASPs decreased due to a product mix shift toward all-digital set-top boxes. The increase in unit shipments was primarily due to increased demand for the HD/DVR set-top boxes. The segment continued to be the worldwide leader in market share for digital cable set-top boxes.
 
In the third quarter of 2006, net sales of cable modems decreased 8%, compared to the third quarter of 2005. The decrease in net sales was due to lower demand for data modems, partially offset by increased demand for voice-enable modems. Despite the decrease, the segment retained its leading worldwide market share in cable modems.

During the third quarter of 2006, the segment completed the acquisitions of: (i) Broadbus Technologies, Inc., a provider of technology solutions for television on demand, and (ii) Vertasent LLC, a software developer for managing technology elements for switched digital video networks.
 
Nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to nine months ended October 1, 2005
 
In the first nine months of 2006, the segment’s net sales increased 8% to $2.3 billion, compared to $2.2 billion in the first nine months of 2005. The increase in overall net sales was primarily driven by increased demand for HD/DVR set-top boxes. Net sales increased in North America, Latin America and EMEA, but decreased in Asia. Net sales in North America continue to comprise a significant portion of the segment’s business, accounting for 83% of the segment’s total net sales in the first nine months of 2006, compared to 84% in the first nine months of 2005.
 
The segment reported operating earnings of $66 million in the first nine months of 2006, compared to operating earnings of $81 million in the first nine months of 2005. The 19% decrease in operating earnings was primarily due to an increase in Other charges (income) from: (i) an acquisition-related in-process research and development, (ii) a legal reserve, and (iii) an increase in reorganization of business charges, primarily relating to employee severance. Also contributing to the decrease in operating earnings was an increase in R&D expenditures, primarily related to developmental engineering expenditures. These negative impacts were partially offset by an increase in gross margin, driven primarily by the 8% increase in net sales. As a percentage of net sales, R&D expenditures increased while SG&A expenses decreased.
 
In the first nine months of 2006, net sales of digital entertainment set-top devices increased 17%, compared to the first nine months of 2005. Unit shipments of digital entertainment set-top devices increased by 38% to 6.9 million, while ASPs decreased due to a product mix shift toward all-digital set-top boxes. The increase in unit shipments was primarily due to increased demand for the HD/DVR set-top boxes.
 
In the first nine months of 2006, net sales of cable modems increased 14%, compared to the first nine months of 2005. The increase in net sales reflects increased demand for voice-enabled modems.
 
In February 2006, the segment completed the acquisition of Kreatel Communications AB, a leading developer of innovative IP-based digital set-top boxes and software.
 
Significant Accounting Policies
 
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations addresses the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
 
Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience, current economic and industry conditions and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. This forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management believes the following significant accounting policies require significant judgment and estimates:
 
  •  Revenue recognition
 
  •  Allowance for losses on finance receivables
 
  •  Inventory valuation reserves
 
  •  Deferred tax asset valuation
 
  •  Valuation of investments and long-lived assets
 
  •  Restructuring activities

In the third quarter of 2006, there has been no change in the above critical accounting policies or the underlying accounting assumptions and estimates used in the above critical accounting policies.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets — An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 140” (“SFAS 156”). This standard amends the guidance in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.” Among other requirements, SFAS 156 requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract when there is either: (i) a transfer of the servicer’s financial assets that meets the requirements for sale accounting, (ii) a transfer of the servicer’s financial assets to a qualifying special-purpose entity in a guaranteed mortgage securitization in which the transferor retains all of the resulting securities and classifies them as either available-for-sale securities or trading securities in accordance with Statement No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities”, or (iii) an acquisition or assumption of an obligation to service a financial asset that does not relate to financial assets of the servicer or its consolidated affiliates. SFAS 156 is effective for those fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 156 to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” This interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN 48 will be effective beginning January 1, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating this interpretation to determine if it will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (“SAB 108”), “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements.” SAB 108 expresses the SEC Staff’s views regarding the process of quantifying financial statement misstatements. SAB 108 addresses the diversity in practice in quantifying financial statement misstatements and the potential under current practice for the build up of improper amounts on the balance sheet. SAB 108 will be effective for the year ending December 31, 2006. The cumulative effect of the initial application of SAB 108 will be reported in the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the fiscal year, with the offsetting balance to retained earnings. The Company does not expect the adoption of SAB 108 to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value as required by other accounting pronouncements and expands fair value measurement disclosures. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 157 on the Company’s financial statements.
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans” (“SFAS 158”). SFAS 158 requires that employers: (i) recognize on a prospective basis the funded status of their defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans on their consolidated balance sheet, (ii) recognize as a component of other comprehensive income, net of tax, the gains or losses and prior service costs or credits that arise during the period but are not recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost, (iii) measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations as of the date of the employer’s statement of financial position, and (iv) disclose additional information in the notes to financial statements. The provisions of SFAS 158 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006, except for the requirement to measure plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of the employer’s statement of financial position, which is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. Based on the funded status

of the Company’s defined benefit pension and postretirement health care benefit plans as of December 31, 2005, the Company would be required to increase its net liabilities for pension and postretirement health care benefits, which would result in an estimated decrease in stockholders’ equity of $482 million, net of taxes. This estimate is based on a number of assumptions. The actual impact of implementing SFAS 158 may vary from this estimate, due to changes in assumptions, including the discount rates in effect at December 31, 2006, the actual rate of return on pension assets for 2006 and the tax effects of the adjustment. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the change in measurement date on the Company’s financial statements but does not believe the adoption of this provision of SFAS 158 will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
Financial Statement Presentation of Discontinued Operations and Realignment of Segments
 
As described in a Form 8-K filed on July 6, 2006, the Company announced, effective as of the second quarter of 2006, the presentation of the automotive electronics business as a discontinued operation and the realignment of its businesses into three operating business groups: (i) Mobile Devices, (ii) Networks and Enterprise, and (iii) Connected Home Solutions. This Form 8-K presented the Company’s 2006 first quarter and 2005 full year and quarterly financial information reclassified to reflect the presentation of the automotive electronics business as a discontinued operation and the realigned segments.
 
Termination of Shareholder Rights Plan
 
As previously announced, effective as of August 1, 2006 (the “Termination Date”), the Company terminated its shareholder rights plan. The shareholder rights plan was scheduled to expire in November 2008. On the Termination Date, in connection with the termination of the Shareholder Rights Plan, the Company made the filings necessary to eliminate all references to the Company’s Junior Participating Preferred Stock, Series B from its Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
 
In addition, effective as of the Termination Date, the Company has established a new corporate governance policy providing that any future shareholder rights plan adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors must be subject to shareholder approval within twelve months of its adoption (a “12-Month Sunset Requirement”). Subject to the 12-Month Sunset Requirement, the Board of Directors, by a majority vote of its independent directors, maintains the flexibility to adopt a new shareholder rights plan in the future.
 
Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
Foreign Currency Risk
 
As a multinational company, the Company’s transactions are denominated in a variety of currencies. The Company uses financial instruments to hedge, or to reduce its overall exposure to the effects of currency fluctuations on cash flows. The Company’s policy is not to speculate in financial instruments for profit on the exchange rate price fluctuation, trade in currencies for which there are no underlying exposures, or enter into trades for any currency to intentionally increase the underlying exposure. Instruments that are designated as part of a hedging relationship must be effective at reducing the risk associated with the exposure being hedged and are designated as a part of a hedging relationship at the inception of the contract. Accordingly, changes in market values of hedge instruments must be highly correlated with changes in market values of underlying hedged items both at the inception of the hedge and over the life of the hedge contract.
 
The Company’s strategy in foreign exchange exposure issues is to offset the gains or losses on the financial instruments against losses or gains on the underlying operational cash flows or investments based on the operating business units’ assessment of risk. The Company enters into derivative contracts for some of the Company’s non-functional currency receivables and payables, which are denominated in major currencies that can be traded on open markets. The Company uses forward contracts and options to hedge these currency exposures. In addition, the Company enters into derivative contracts for some firm commitments and some forecasted transactions, which are designated as part of a hedging relationship if it is determined that the transaction qualifies for hedge accounting. A portion of the Company’s exposure is from currencies that are not traded in liquid markets and these are addressed, to the extent reasonably possible, through managing net asset positions, product pricing and component sourcing.

At September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the Company had net outstanding foreign exchange contracts totaling $2.4 billion and $2.8 billion, respectively. Management believes that these financial instruments should not subject the Company to undue risk due to foreign exchange movements because gains and losses on these contracts should offset losses and gains on the underlying assets, liabilities and transactions, except for the ineffective portion of the instruments, which are charged to Other within Other income (expense) in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The following table shows, in millions of U.S. dollars, the five largest net foreign exchange hedge positions as of September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005:

The Company is exposed to credit-related losses if counterparties to financial instruments fail to perform their obligations. However, the Company does not expect any counterparties, all of whom presently have high credit ratings, to fail to meet their obligations.
 
Interest Rate Risk
 
At September 30, 2006, the Company’s short-term debt consisted primarily of $300 million of commercial paper, priced at short-term interest rates. The Company has $3.9 billion of long-term debt including current maturities, which is primarily priced at long-term, fixed interest rates.
 
In order to manage the mix of fixed and floating rates in its debt portfolio, the Company has entered into interest rate swaps to change the characteristics of interest rate payments from fixed-rate payments to short-term LIBOR-based variable rate payments. The following table displays interest rate swaps that have been entered into as of September 30, 2006:

    118     7.6% notes due 2007
             
    $ 2,642      
             
 
The short-term LIBOR-based variable rate payments on each of the above interest rate swaps was 7.13% for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The fair value of all interest rate swaps at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, was $(55) million and $(50) million, respectively. Except for these interest rate swaps, the Company had no outstanding commodity derivatives, currency swaps or options relating to debt instruments at September 30, 2006 or December 31, 2005.
 
The Company designated its interest rate swap agreements as part of a fair value hedging relationship. Interest expense on the debt is adjusted to include the payments made or received under such hedge agreements. In the event the underlying debt instrument matures or is redeemed or repurchased, the Company is likely to terminate the corresponding interest rate swap contracts.
 
The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to its swap contracts. The Company minimizes its credit risk on these transactions by only dealing with leading, creditworthy

financial institutions having long-term debt ratings of “A” or better and, does not anticipate nonperformance. In addition, the contracts are distributed among several financial institutions, thus minimizing credit risk concentration.
 
Investment Derivative
 
During the first quarter of 2006, the Company entered into a zero-cost collar derivative (the “Sprint Nextel Derivative”) to protect itself economically against price fluctuations in its 37.6 million shares of Sprint Nextel Corporation (“Sprint Nextel”) non-voting common stock. During the second quarter of 2006, as a result of Sprint Nextel’s spin-off of Embarq Corporation through a dividend to Sprint Nextel shareholders, the Company received approximately 1.9 million shares of Embarq Corporation. The floor and ceiling prices of the Sprint Nextel Derivative were adjusted accordingly. If the Sprint Nextel shares and the Sprint Nextel Derivative, as adjusted, are held to the Sprint Nextel Derivative’s maturity, the Company would receive cumulative proceeds of no less than $853 million and no more than $1.1 billion from the sale of its 37.6 million Sprint Nextel shares and the settlement of the Sprint Nextel Derivative. The Sprint Nextel Derivative was not designated as a hedge under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. Accordingly, to reflect the change in fair value of the Sprint Nextel Derivative, the Company recorded income of $93 million and $165 million for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively, both included in Other income (expense) in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Part II — Other Information
 
Item 1.   Legal Proceedings
 
Iridium Bankruptcy Court Lawsuit
 
Motorola was sued by the Statutory Official Committee of the Unsecured Creditors of Iridium in the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York on July 19, 2001. In re Iridium Operating LLC, et al. v. Motorola asserts claims for breach of contract, warranty, and fiduciary duty, and for fraudulent transfers and preferences, and seeks in excess of $4 billion in damages. Trial began on October 23, 2006.
 
Shareholder Derivative Case — Iridium and Telsim
 
M&C Partners III v. Galvin, et al. was originally filed January 10, 2002 in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois as a shareholder derivative action against certain current and former members of the Motorola Board of Directors, and Motorola as nominal defendant, alleging breach of fiduciary duty and/or gross mismanagement relating to Iridium. Following the Court’s ruling for defendants on the Iridium-related claims and plaintiff’s July 20, 2006 demand with respect to Telsim-related claims, the Motorola Board of Directors appointed an investigatory committee to investigate those Telsim-related claims.
 
An unfavorable outcome in one or more of the Iridium-related cases still pending could have a material adverse effect on Motorola’s consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations.
 
Telsim Class Action Securities Litigation
 
Barry Family LP v. Carl F. Koenemann, was filed against the former chief financial officer of Motorola on December 24, 2002 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, alleging breach of fiduciary duty and violations of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and SEC Rule 10b-5. It has been consolidated with a number of related cases as In re Motorola Securities Litigation and certified as a class action by the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. The case is currently scheduled for trial beginning April 17, 2007.
 
A purported class action, Howell v. Motorola, Inc., et al., was filed against Motorola and several of its officers and employees in the 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 Motorola’s 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan (the “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 (the “Howell Complaint”). Plaintiff filed an appeal to the dismissal on October 27, 2005. In addition, on October 19, 2005, plaintiff’s counsel filed a motion seeking to add a new lead plaintiff and assert the same claims set forth in the Howell Complaint (the “October 19th Motion”). On August 11, 2006, the court denied the October 19th Motion, finding the second purported plaintiff lacked standing to sue. Plaintiff filed an appeal.

EX-2.2 2 c09275exv2w2.htm AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER exv2w2
 

EXHIBIT 2.2
AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER
     THIS AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this “Amendment”) is made and entered into as of October 30, 2006 by and among MOTOROLA, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), MOTOROLA GTG SUBSIDIARY I CORP., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and SYMBOL TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).
RECITALS
     WHEREAS, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company are parties to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 18, 2006 (as amended hereby, the “Merger Agreement”; terms defined in the Merger Agreement and not otherwise defined herein are being used herein as therein defined), pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company; and
     WHEREAS, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company have agreed to amend the Merger Agreement on the terms provided herein in order to clarify the mechanics of payment of consideration to the holders of outstanding options of the Company.
     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
     Section 1. Amendment. The Merger Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
     (a) Section 4.2 is hereby amended by deleting the lead-in to such Section and subsections (a) and (b) of such Section in their entirety and inserting in lieu thereof the following:
     “4.2 Exchange of Certificates. The procedures for exchanging outstanding shares of Company Common Stock for the Merger Consideration pursuant to the Merger are as follows:
     (a) Exchange Agent. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with an exchange agent appointed by Parent and approved by the Company prior to the date hereof (the “Exchange Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock, for payment through the Exchange Agent in accordance with this Section 4.2, cash in an amount equal to the product of the Merger Consideration and the number of shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, including all shares of Restricted Stock (exclusive of any shares to be cancelled pursuant to Section 4.1(b)) (the “Exchange Fund”). Pending distribution of the cash deposited with the Exchange Agent, such cash shall be held in trust for the benefit of the holders of Company Common Stock entitled to receive the Merger Consideration and shall not be used for any other purposes; provided, however, any interest and other income resulting from such investment shall become a part of the Exchange Fund, and any amounts in excess of the amounts payable under

 


 

Section 4.1(c) shall be promptly returned to Parent. The Exchange Agent shall invest the Exchange Fund as directed by Parent provided that such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America, in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, or in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $1 billion, provided that no such investments shall have maturities that could prevent or delay payments to be made pursuant to this Article IV.
     (b) Exchange Procedures. Promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of a certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (each, a “Certificate”), (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form and as approved by the Company and (ii) instructions for effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration payable with respect thereto. Upon surrender of a Certificate (or effective affidavit of loss required by Section 4.2(g) in lieu thereof) for cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of this Article IV, after giving effect to any required withholding taxes pursuant to Section 4.2(f) hereof, and the Certificate so surrendered shall immediately be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on the cash payable upon the surrender of such Certificates. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Common Stock which is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, it will be a condition of payment of the Merger Consideration that the surrendered Certificate be properly endorsed, with signatures guaranteed, or otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such payment will pay any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the payment to a Person other than the registered holder of the surrendered Certificate or such Person will establish to the satisfaction of Parent that such taxes have been paid or are not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 4.2, each Certificate (or effective affidavit of loss required by Section 4.2(g) in lieu thereof) shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Consideration as contemplated by this Section 4.2. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Person” shall mean an individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, association, trust, unincorporated organization or other entity.”
     (b) Section 4.3 is hereby amended by deleting subsections (b) and (c) of such Section in their entirety and inserting in lieu thereof the following:
     ”(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.3(a), in lieu of an Option Holder exercising his or her Company Stock Options, each Company Stock Option, to the extent remaining unexercised as of the Effective Time, shall

2


 

be cancelled and shall thereafter no longer be exercisable except that the Option Holder thereof shall be entitled to a payment in cash (the “Option Payment”), as of the Effective Time, in an amount (if any) equal to (i) the product of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option held by such Option Holder, whether or not then vested or exercisable, and (y) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option, minus (ii) all applicable federal, state and local Taxes required to be withheld by the Company. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Company, for the benefit of the Option Holders, cash in an amount equal the aggregate amount of all Option Payments. Each Option Payment shall be paid by the Company or its agent to the applicable Option Holder as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company agrees to take any and all actions necessary (including the adoption of resolutions by the Company Board to amend the Company Stock Plans (other than the Company’s 2000 Directors’ Stock Option Plan) and any other action reasonably requested by Parent) to approve and effectuate the foregoing.
     (c) [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]”
     Section 2. Representations of the Company. The Company hereby represents and warrants to Parent and Merger Sub as follows:
     (a) The Company has all necessary corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Amendment, to perform its obligations under the Merger Agreement (as amended by this Amendment) and to consummate the Merger, subject only to the Company Voting Proposal and the filing of the Certificate of Merger pursuant to Delaware Law.
     (b) This Amendment has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by Parent and Merger Sub, the Merger Agreement (as amended by this Amendment) constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be subject to Laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and the rights of creditors and rules of Law governing specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.
     Section 3. Representations of Parent and Merger Sub. Each of Parent and Merger Sub hereby represents and warrants to the Company as follows:
     (a) Each of Parent and Merger Sub has all necessary corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Amendment, to perform its obligations under the Merger Agreement (as amended by this Amendment) and to consummate the Merger, subject only to the filing of the Certificate of Merger pursuant to Delaware law.
     (b) This Amendment has been duly and validly executed and delivered by each of Parent and Merger Sub and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by the
