BUSINESS GENERAL LSI Logic Corporation (together with its subsidiaries collectively referred to as LSI Logic or the Company and referred to as we, us and our) is a leader in the design, development, manufacture, and marketing of complex, high-performance integrated circuits and storage systems. We are focused on the four markets of consumer products, communications, storage components, and storage area network systems. Our integrated circuits are used in a wide range of communication devices, including devices used for wireless, broadband, data networking, and set-top box applications. We also provide other types of integrated circuit products and board-level products for use in consumer applications, high-performance storage controllers, and systems for storage area networks. We operate in two segments -- the Semiconductor segment and the Storage Area Network (SAN) Systems segment -- in which we offer products and services for a variety of electronic systems applications. Our products are marketed primarily to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) who sell products targeted for applications in four major markets, which are: - Consumer Products; - Communications; - Storage Components; and - Storage Area Network Systems. In the Semiconductor segment, we use advanced process technology and comprehensive design methodologies to design, develop, manufacture and market highly complex integrated circuits. These system-on-a-chip solutions include both application specific integrated circuits, commonly referred to as ASICs and standard products, as well as Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) host bus adapters and related products; and services. ASICs are designed for specific applications defined by the customer, whereas standard products are for market applications that we define. See also "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Item 7 of Part II herein. We have developed methods of designing integrated circuits based on a library of building blocks of industry-standard electronic functions, interfaces, and protocols. Among these is our CoreWare design methodology. Our advanced submicron manufacturing process technologies allow our customers to combine one or more CoreWare library elements with memory and their own proprietary logic to integrate a highly complex, system-level solution on a single chip. (Our G10, G11, G12 and Gflx submicron process technologies are more fully described in the section on Manufacturing below.) We have developed and use complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process technologies to manufacture our integrated circuits. 1 In the SAN Systems segment, our enterprise storage systems are designed, manufactured, and sold by our wholly owned subsidiary -- LSI Logic Storage Systems, Inc. Our high-performance, highly scalable open storage area network systems and storage solutions are available through leading original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, and a worldwide network of resellers. Products and solutions distributed through these channels may exclude LSI Logic Storage Systems' brand identification. When included, LSI Logic Storage Systems brand identity may appear alone or in tandem with third-party brand identification. LSI Logic Corporation was incorporated in California on November 6, 1980, and was reincorporated in Delaware on June 11, 1987. Our principal offices are located at 1551 McCarthy Boulevard, Milpitas, California 95035, and our telephone number at that location is (408) 433-8000. Our home page on the Internet is at www.lsilogic.com. BUSINESS STRATEGY SEMICONDUCTOR BUSINESS STRATEGY Our objective is to continue to be an industry leader in the design and manufacture of highly integrated, complex integrated circuits and other electronic components and system-level products that provide our customers with silicon-based system-level solutions. To achieve this objective, our business strategy includes the following key elements: - Target Growth Markets and Selected Customers. We concentrate our sales and marketing efforts on leading OEM customers in targeted growth markets, led by the communications, consumer, storage components, and storage area network systems applications. Our engineering expertise is focused on developing technologies that will meet the needs of leading-edge customers in order to succeed in these market areas. - Emphasize CoreWare Methodology and System-on-a-Chip Capability. Our CoreWare design methodology enables the integration of one or more pre-designed circuit elements with customer-specified elements and memory to create system capabilities on a single chip. This results in higher product functionality, higher performance, greater differentiation, and faster time to market. We also have used this design methodology to develop proprietary standard products. - Promote Highly Integrated Design and Manufacturing Technology. We use proprietary and leading third-party electronic design automation, or EDA, software design tools. Our design tool environment is highly integrated with our manufacturing process requirements so that it will accurately simulate product performance. This reduces design time and project cost. We continually evaluate and, as appropriate, develop expertise with third-party EDA tools from leading and emerging suppliers of such products. - Provide Flexibility in Design Engineering. We engage with customers of our semiconductor products under various arrangements whereby the extent of the engineering support we provide will be determined in accordance with the customer's requirements. For example, a customer may primarily use its own engineers for substantial development of its product design and retain our support for silicon-specific engineering work. We also enter into engineering design projects, including those on a "turn-key" basis. - Maintain High-Quality and Cost-Effective Manufacturing. We operate our own manufacturing facilities in order to control our deployment of advanced wafer fabrication technology, our manufacturing costs, and our response to customer delivery requirements. We also use independent wafer foundry services when appropriate and may seek to fill unused capacity in our own foundries by offering such services to third parties. We perform substantially all of our packaging, assembly, and final test operations through subcontractors in Asia. Our production operations in Gresham, Oregon, and Tsukuba, Japan, and our assembly and test subcontractors in Asia are ISO-9002 certified, an important international measure for quality. 2 - Leverage Alliances with Key Partners. We are continually seeking to establish relationships with key partners in a diverse range of semiconductor and storage-system technologies to promote new products, services, operating standards, and manufacturing capabilities and to avail ourselves of cost efficiencies that may be obtained through collaborative development. - Develop and Drive Industry Standards to Achieve Market Advantage. We have been a leader in developing and promoting important industry standard architectures, functions, protocols, and interfaces. We believe that this strategy will enable us to quickly launch new standard-based products, allowing our customers to achieve time-to-market and other competitive advantages. - Operate Worldwide. We market our products and engage with our customers on a worldwide basis through direct sales, marketing, and field technical staff and through independent sales representatives and distributors. Our network of design centers located in major markets allows us to provide customers with highly experienced engineers, to interact with customer engineering management and system architects, to develop designs for new products, and to provide continuing after-sale customer support. SAN SYSTEMS BUSINESS STRATEGY - Highly Leveraged Core Competencies. In the SAN systems market, we leverage expertise used to develop our semiconductors, storage input/output components, storage management software, and storage systems in the development of scalable storage solutions. We use the full scope of our technical expertise to design and develop interoperable, easy-to-manage, leading price/performance products. - Modular Design Philosophy. Our flexible approach to storage system design allows elements of a system to be configured and/or customized together or separately to meet customer requirements. Benefits to our customers include investment protection, reduced support costs, and a common management interface and features. This allows customers to start with pilot projects and later scale to full implementation. - Flexible Business Models. Our strategy is to provide flexible, customizable solutions with room for value-added components, software, and services provided by the channel. Our modular product set allows OEMs and resellers to devise a solution to best meet their needs and to satisfy customers. PRODUCTS AND SERVICES SEMICONDUCTOR PRODUCTS In our semiconductor components business, we design, manufacture and supply ASICs, standard products, host adapter boards and host adapter boards software to customers competing in global consumer, communications and storage markets. ASICs are semiconductors that are designed for a unique, customer-specified applications. Standard products, which incorporate our intellectual property building blocks, are sold directly to customers for incorporation into system-level products. Both our ASICs and standard products are predominantly designed and manufactured using our proprietary process technologies. Consumer Products. For the consumer market, we offer a broad array of products, including both application specific standard products and custom solutions. Consumer standard products. We design, develop, manufacture and sell semiconductor devices, software and reference designs for digital video and audio applications. We enable new digital video and audio applications. We are focused on providing solutions into rapidly growing applications such as DVD players, digital set-top boxes, cable modems, broadcast encoders, video editing systems, as well as emerging applications such as DVD recorders, home servers, residential gateways and personal video recorders. Consumer custom solutions. We also design, manufacture and sell systems on a chip (SoC) for consumer applications. We focus on consumer market segments employing our intellectual property portfolio, 3 design methodology and turnkey product offerings (including manufacturing, assembly and test) to provide a complete solution. Our main focus is in the video game console market. We plan to expand into digital cameras and camcorders, portable digital audio and video, personal digital assistant multimedia products and other emerging multimedia applications where an effective standard solution is not available. In May 2001, LSI Logic acquired C-Cube Microsystems, Inc., a leader in digital media processing for $893.7 million. The acquisition of C-Cube enhanced the Company's presence in the worldwide cable modem, cable set-top box, DVD and other major consumer markets in the semiconductor segment. In addition, the acquisition enabled LSI Logic to have a strong market presence in the growing China semiconductor market. Storage Components Our ASIC and standard product solutions to customers in worldwide storage component markets make possible data storage and transmission between a host computer and peripheral devices such as magnetic and optical disk drives, scanners, printers, and disk and tape-based storage systems. We offer industry leading standard products including product families in Fibre Channel, SCSI, SCSI expanders, integrated circuits for motherboard or adapter applications, host adapter boards, and software. Our storage components also include a product family of PCI-RAID host adapters featuring IDE, SCSI and Fibre Channel interfaces, along with software and utilities for storage configuration and management. We also offer ASIC solutions to customers, who develop Fibre Channel SAN switches and host adapters, storage systems, and hard disk drive and tape peripherals. Our Fibre Channel offerings include the GigaBlaze high performance 2Gb/s FC transceiver and the Merlin family of high-performance Fibre Channel protocol controllers. We provide tools, libraries, semiconductor processes and packaging products that enable our OEM customers to reliably develop high-performance designs for advanced computer systems. We provide a suite of MIPS cores and ARM processors, in addition to industry-standard bus interface cores such as USB, IEEE 1394, and PCI. Communications and ASIC Technology Reflecting that ASIC technology is the primary method of engagement for LSI Logic in serving global communications markets, the Company in early 2002 announced the consolidation of its Communications business and its ASIC technology and product development activities. Communications products. We offer a blend of high-performance, high-integration and low-power silicon solutions that are pivotal in development of Internet infrastructure. We develop ASICs using ARM-based processor, digital signal processor (DSP), high-speed transceiver and mixed-signal cores. LSI Logic targets the following global communications markets: high speed metropolitan and wide area networks (WAN), optical networking, wireless communications infrastructure, wireless local area networks, home networking, residential broadband gateways, and digital subscriber lines (DSL). We develop and market a portfolio of standard, high-speed communications interfaces for our own standard products and as building block cores in customer-specific ASIC designs. LSI Logic focuses on serving customers in the Local Area Network (LAN) enterprise market, the emerging Metro sector and the Wide Area Network (WAN) telecommunications market. ASIC Technology Our CoreWare design methodology offers a comprehensive design approach for creating a system on a chip efficiently, predictably, and rapidly. Our CoreWare libraries include industry standard, intellectual property building blocks. Our emphasis on cell-based product lines reflects the market preference for use of this methodology to develop advanced integrated circuits. Customers obtain greater flexibility in the design of system-level products using our cell-based technology. Our CoreWare cells are connected together electronically to form an entire system on a single chip. These system-on-a-chip solutions can be used in ASICs or standard products focused on the communications, consumer and storage markets. 4 Our ASIC customers utilize our engineering design capabilities in a variety of ways. Typically, the ASIC design process involves participation by both LSI Logic and customer engineers. We engage our customers early in their new system product development process and accept large design assignments where we share development costs with the customer. We provide advice on the product design strategies to optimize product performance and suitability for the targeted application. In addition, our capabilities include support in the areas of architecture and system-level design simulation, verification, and synthesis used in the development of complex integrated circuits. Our software design tool environment supports and automatically performs key elements of the design process from circuit concept to physical layout of the circuit design. The design tool environment features a combination of internally developed proprietary software and third-party tools that are highly integrated with our manufacturing process requirements. The design environment includes expanded interface capabilities with a range of third-party tools from leading EDA vendors and features hardware/software co-verification capability. After completion of the ASIC engineering design effort, we produce and test prototype circuits for shipment to the customer. We then begin volume production of integrated circuits that have been developed through one or more of the arrangements described above in accordance with the customer's quantity and delivery requirements. SAN SYSTEMS PRODUCTS In the SAN Systems segment, we offer a broad line of network storage that spans customer enterprises from workgroup to data center. Our product lines range from intelligent controller and drive modules to complete storage systems. These offerings allow our products to be integrated on a component basis or aggregated into a complete storage solution, increasing OEM flexibility in creating differentiated products. Modular products also allow our indirect channel partners to customize solutions, bundling our products with value-added components, software, and services. - SAN Storage. Our MetaStor brand storage systems, distributed by StorageTek and LSI Logic sales representatives are based on highly available and scalable hardware and software components integrated into fully tested storage area networks for the enterprise market. - MetaStor E-Series. The MetaStor E-Series storage systems for storage area networks combine fibre channel performance with our proprietary Multi-Pathing Architecture to deliver high performance for a wide variety of applications. Highly available and fully redundant dual-active controllers, efficiently managed with SANtricity Storage Manager software, differentiate our storage from that of our competitors. The MetaStor E-Series storage family supports all high-use operating systems, including Windows NT, Solaris(TM), HP-UX, AIX, SGI, IRIX, NetWare and Linux platforms. Our products allow customers to dynamically increase storage capacity from 36 gigabytes (billions of information bytes) to as much as 39 terabytes (trillions of information bytes) per system. Customers can expand storage to their computer applications, maintain redundant records and change configurations even when their systems are operating. The result is a growth-oriented, highly available, easy to manage system. - SANtricity Storage Manager Software. This storage management software enables users to consolidate storage through the SANshare storage-partitioning feature. In addition, this software provides a single management interface and remote access capabilities, allowing centralized management of all MetaStor storage. An enhanced graphical user interface makes the software quite easy to use. Other features provide for automatic device discovery and one-button configuration. - Network-Attached Storage. The MetaStor N-Series is a family of network-attached storage solutions that enables users to share files among a variety of hosts, regardless of operating systems, lowering the cost of ownership by consolidating storage and management functions in a single, open storage 5 environment. Features include multi-protocol support, a high-performance file system, hot recovery point-in-time copies, flexible backup solutions, and enterprise-level storage management. - Storage Virtualization. The ContinuStor Director is an intelligent storage management system that provides storage virtualization, heterogeneous storage, and host support and local and remote mirroring capabilities. Storage Virtualization is an emerging method of managing storage without regard to its physical characteristics, enabling the interoperability of storage devices from different manufacturers in a more efficient manner. This generally results in a significant reduction of storage management complexity, improvements in capacity utilization and more cost-effective business continuance and disaster recovery implementations with respect to data storage. - Storage Controller Modules. Designed from the chip-level up, our storage controller modules support both Ultra2 SCSI and Fibre Channel interfaces. Using LSI Logic ASICs, the controllers deliver superior performance for both high-transaction volumes and large data block workloads. Combined with our drive modules, each controller module manages scalable capacity up to 39 terabytes. Modules can either be rack-mounted or installed desk-side configurations. Other features include HotScale technology for dynamic system expansion and reconfiguration, redundant dual-active controllers and automatic fail-over for maximum data availability. - Storage Drive Modules. Our storage drive modules increase storage capacity and performance as needs change. Drive modules use our chip capabilities to monitor power, temperature, and fans, and to relay information back to the controller. Advanced technology from industry disk drive vendors is integrated into the modules to maximize capacity and minimize floor space requirements. As a major open computing vendor, we deliver storage systems that operate within the Windows NT, UNIX, Solaris, NetWare, and Linux operating-system environments. These products are targeted at key data storage applications, including: - Internet servers; - Electronic commerce; - Data warehousing; - On-line transaction processing; - Video delivery, editing and production; and - Migration of mission critical applications off mainframe computers. In 2001, LSI Logic Storage Systems, Inc. enhanced its entire product line when it introduced the E4600, the E4600HPCx and SANtricity Storage Manager 8.0 software. These new products extend the range of applicability to better serve market segments that demand the highest levels of connectivity, performance and storage capacity. We offer a toll-free 24 hours-a-day, 7 days-a-week technical support hotline for customers worldwide using the MetaStor line of network- and server-attached enterprise storage systems. We also offer a number of flexible services and support programs that allow customers to choose the level of telephone and onsite support appropriate to their needs. MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION SEMICONDUCTOR MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION The highly competitive semiconductor industry is characterized by rapidly changing technology, short product cycles, and emerging standards. Our marketing strategy requires that we accurately forecast trends in the evolution of product and technology development. We must then act upon this knowledge in a timely manner to develop competitively priced products offering superior performance. As part of this strategy, we are active in the formulation and adoption of critical industry standards that influence the design specifications 6 of our products. Offering products with superior price and performance characteristics is essential to satisfy the rapidly changing needs of our customers in the dynamic communications, consumer and storage markets. Our semiconductor products and design services are primarily sold through our network of direct sales and marketing, field engineering offices and sales representatives located in North America, Europe, Japan, China and elsewhere in Asia. Our sites are interconnected by means of advanced computer networking systems that allow for the continuous, uninterrupted exchange of information that is vital for the proper execution of our sales and marketing activities. International sales are subject to risks common to export activities, including governmental regulations, tariff increases and other trade barriers and currency fluctuations. We rely primarily on direct sales and marketing, but we also work with independent distributors in North America, Europe, Japan and elsewhere in Asia. Some of our distributors possess engineering capabilities and design and purchase both ASICs and standard products from us for resale to their customers. Other distributors focus solely on the sale of standard products. Our agreements with distributors generally grant limited rights to return standard product inventory and obtain credits for price reductions applicable to standard products held in inventory. We maintain appropriate reserves to account for these factors. However, owing to the relatively small quantities of products held in inventory by our distributors, we believe that these arrangements do not result in material financial exposure for our company. SAN SYSTEMS MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION SAN systems products are sold worldwide both on a direct basis to OEMs and through indirect channels to end-users. The MetaStor brand of scalable SAN systems is exclusively marketed through a worldwide network of value-added resellers, system integrators and distributors. We closely manage these relationships to meet the diverse needs of end-users. Our marketing efforts are driven by an industry-wide trend toward the implementation of storage area networks to maximize performance, availability and efficiency. Our direct sales force provides customized SAN systems solutions generally to large, well-known manufacturers of computer equipment. Our product development strategy focuses on implementing the latest storage technologies to improve the performance of our hardware and software storage solutions. As a pioneer in the development of redundant array of independent disks (RAID) technology, and as a member of the Fibre Channel Industry Association and Storage Networking Industry Association, we are continually driving industry standards for fibre channel and SAN solutions. In January 2002, the Company and Storage Technology Corporation (StorageTek) announced an alliance under which StorageTek will become the worldwide master distributor of co-branded open storage products. Further, the companies will market a full line of scalable, high performance, high availability disk storage systems that will be engineered and manufactured by LSI Logic Storage Systems and sold, installed and supported by StorageTek. CUSTOMERS We seek to leverage our expertise in the fields of communications, consumer, storage components and SAN systems by marketing our products and services to market leaders. Our strategic-account focus is on larger, well-known companies that produce high-volume products incorporating our semiconductors and storage system products. We recognize that this strategy may result in increased dependence on a limited number of customers for a substantial portion of our revenues. It is possible that we will not achieve significant sales volumes from one or more of the customers we have selected. While this could result in lower revenues and higher unit costs owing to an under-utilization of our resources, we believe this strategy provides us with the greatest opportunity to drive further growth in sales and unit volumes. We operate in a rigorous competitive environment and our continued success requires that we consistently develop and manufacture products that meet the needs of our customers. There is no assurance that we will achieve significant sales revenues from one or more of our strategic customers. This could result in lower revenues for our company. 7 In 2001, Sony accounted for approximately 18% of our consolidated revenues. No other customer accounted for greater than 10% of consolidated revenues. MANUFACTURING SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING Our semiconductor manufacturing operations convert a design into packaged silicon chips and support customer requirements for volume production. Manufacturing begins with fabrication of custom-diffused silicon wafers. Layers of metal interconnects are deposited onto the wafer and patterned using customized photo masks. Wafers are then tested and cut into die. Die that pass initial tests are then sent to the assembly process where the fabricated circuits are assembled into plastic package or laminate substrate ball grid array. The finished devices undergo additional testing and quality assurance before shipment. Dedicated computer systems are used in this comprehensive testing sequence. The test programs use the basic functional test criteria from the design simulation. The customer specifies the functional test criteria for ASIC circuits. We own and operate manufacturing operations in the United States, Japan, and Hong Kong. In January 2002, we announced a restructuring of the Japan manufacturing facility. In addition, we utilize external wafer foundries located in Taiwan and Malaysia. We use high-performance CMOS process technologies in the volume manufacture of our products. The production operations are fully computer-integrated to increase efficiency and reduce costs. Semiconductor process technologies are identified in terms of the size of channel length within the transistors, measured in millionths of a meter called "microns." The measurement of the channel length is expressed in two ways: effective electrical channel length and drawn gate length. The effective electrical channel length is smaller than the drawn gate length. In this Report on Form 10-K, we use the electrical effective channel length to identify our process technologies. Our advanced submicron manufacturing processes are capable of producing products with an effective electrical channel length within each transistor as small as 0.13-micron in our G12 technology. Our 0.18-micron (G11 process technology) allows up to 24 million usable gates on a single chip. Our G10 process technology is capable of producing 0.25-micron effective channel length products. We have a joint development technology for Gflx, a new flexible process technology capable of combining all of the system functions to create totally new classes of products on a single chip. The Gflx technology is more than twice as dense as the previous generation G12 process technology, allowing designers to incorporate added functions onto a single chip. The 0.10-micron effective channel length Gflx process technology offers 78 million usable logic gates. These advanced process technologies allow for greater circuit density and increased functionality on a single chip. A majority of our wafers are fabricated in our factories in Gresham, Oregon and Tsukuba, Japan. The rest of the wafers are manufactured at our external wafer foundries in Taiwan and Malaysia. The factories in Gresham and Tsukuba are ISO-9002 certified -- an important internationally recognized standard for quality. In July 1999, the older of the two Tsukuba factories, which produced 0.38-micron products, was closed after eleven years of service. This action was taken as part of a comprehensive restructuring and cost reduction plan commenced in 1998. In January 2002, the Company announced a restructuring of the Japan manufacturing facility. In October 2001, the manufacturing facility in Colorado Springs, Colorado, which produced 0.65-micron, 0.54-micron and 0.25-micron wafers, was closed after ten years of service. This action was taken as part of a comprehensive restructuring and cost reduction plan that commenced in April 2001. Our newest manufacturing facility is located in Gresham, Oregon on 325 acres outside of Portland. This facility is equipped for advanced manufacturing operations and is designed to accommodate our expansion requirements well into the foreseeable future. The plant is equipped to produce eight-inch wafers hosting products manufactured to the G10, G11, G12, and Gflx processes. On April 4, 2001, we announced a co-development and foundry supply agreement with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Ltd. (TSMC). This agreement is part of our strategy to "outsource," that is to procure a larger portion of our wafer requirements from external sources. As a result of our 8 joint development efforts with TSMC we anticipate purchasing, consistent with our "outsourcing" strategy, such portion of our wafer volume requirements based on the 0.13-micron process technology that we do not manufacture ourselves. In addition, we anticipate being able to defer the need to expand our manufacturing capacity for the 0.13-micron technology beyond the time when products designed for that technology would begin volume production. We also anticipate collaborating with TSMC on further advancement in wafer fabrication technology. Our fixed costs for manufacturing are high and are expected to remain high because we must continually make significant capital expenditures and add new advanced capacity in order to remain competitive. If demand for our products does not absorb the additional capacity, the increase in fixed costs and operating expenses related to increases in production capacity may result in a material adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition. (Additional risk factors are set forth in the Risk Factors section below.) We offer a wide range of packaging solutions for system-on-a-chip designs. We have also developed a high-performance, high-density interconnect packaging technology, known as flip chip, which essentially replaces the wires that connect the edge of the die to a package with solder bumps spread over the entire external surface of the die. This technology enables us to reach exceptional performance and lead-count levels in packages required for process technologies of 0.18 micron and below. We also offer a mini-ball grid array package that features a smaller package size without sacrificing electrical and thermal performance. We also offer a wide array of plastic wire-bond packaging options. Final assembly (i.e., assembly in a plastic or laminate substrate package) and test operations are conducted by our Hong Kong affiliate through independent subcontractors in the Philippines, Malaysia, South Korea, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. We also utilize subcontractors in Thailand for the assembly and test of our host adapter boards. Both manufacturing and sales of our semiconductor products may be impacted by political and economic conditions abroad. Protectionist trade legislation in either the United States or foreign countries, such as a change in the current tariff structures, export compliance laws or other trade policies, could adversely affect our ability to manufacture or sell products in or into foreign markets. We cannot guarantee that current arrangements with our component suppliers or assembly, testing and packaging subcontractors will continue, and we do not maintain an extensive inventory of assembled components. The failure to secure assembly and test capacity could affect our sales and result in a material adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition. Development of advanced manufacturing technologies in the semiconductor industry frequently requires that critical selections be made as to those vendors from which essential equipment (including future enhancements) and after-sales services and support will be purchased. Some of our equipment selections require that we procure certain specific types of materials or components specifically designed to our specifications. Therefore, when we implement specific technology choices, we may become dependent upon certain sole-source vendors. Accordingly, our capability to switch to other technologies and vendors may be substantially restricted and a switch may involve significant expense and could delay our technology advancements and decrease manufacturing capabilities. The semiconductor equipment and materials industries also include a number of vendors that are relatively small and have limited resources. Several of these vendors supply us with equipment and/or services. We do not have long-term supply or service agreements with vendors of certain critical items, and shortages could occur in various essential materials due to interruption of supply or increased demand in the industry. Given the limited number of suppliers of certain of the materials and components used in our products, if we experience difficulty in obtaining essential materials in the future we cannot be assured that alternative suppliers will be available to meet our needs. Such disruptions could materially affect our operations, which could have a material adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition. The primary raw materials used in the manufacturing of semiconductors include raw wafers and certain chemicals used in the processing of semiconductors. The raw wafers are obtained primarily from suppliers in Japan and their U.S. subsidiaries, whereas other material inputs are obtained on a local basis. Our operations 9 also depend upon a continuing adequate supply of electricity, natural gas and water. These energy sources have historically been available on a continuous basis and in adequate quantities for our needs. However, given the recent power shortage in California, it is possible that other areas of the country, including Oregon, may experience similar shortages. An interruption in the supply of raw materials or energy inputs for any reason would have an adverse effect on our manufacturing operations. Our manufacturing facilities incorporate sophisticated computer integrated manufacturing systems, which depend upon a mix of our proprietary software and systems and software purchased from third parties. Failure of these systems would cause a disruption in the manufacturing process and could result in a delay in completion and shipment of products. SAN SYSTEMS MANUFACTURING The manufacturing of SAN systems products involves the assembly and testing of components, including our semiconductors, which are then integrated into final products. SAN systems product and manufacturing designs are highly modularized for flexibility. Our manufacturing operations include Configure to Order and Assemble to Order capabilities. These processes have been implemented in an effort to reduce requisite lead times for the delivery of product. - US Manufacturing. Our US manufacturing facility in Wichita, Kansas, assembles and tests high performance array controllers, rack-mount modules and complete storage systems. ISO-9001 certification at our Kansas manufacturing facility has been maintained since April 1992. This facility is currently certified ISO 9001:2000 compliant as of October 2001. Product quality is achieved through employee training, automated testing, and sample auditing. Supply line management extends quality through the component and subassembly supplier base with continuous reporting and supplier/product qualification programs. - European Manufacturing. The Company maintains a manufacturing facility in Cork, Ireland through an agreement with Flextronics International Ltd. This facility is capable of assembly and testing of high performance array controllers, rack-mount modules and complete storage systems. The Irish site was established to provide flexibility in satisfying European demand and to serve as a backup site in the event natural or human-made disasters affect the manufacturing capacity of the Wichita, Kansas facility. The Irish site is certified as ISO 9001:2000 compliant as of December 2001. Our SAN systems manufacturing operations are based primarily on an integrated Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) manufacturing application system purchased from a third party. This ERP system is augmented with several of our proprietary software tools that support the production process through automated product configuration and automated electronic testing. Failure of these systems would cause a disruption in the manufacturing process and could result in delays of product shipments and/or customer billings. Our manufacturing facility in Wichita, Kansas depends upon a continuous supply of electricity from a single utility provider. Any natural or manmade disruptions could materially affect our operating results and financial condition. BACKLOG SEMICONDUCTOR BACKLOG In the Semiconductor segment, we generally do not have long-term volume purchase contracts with our customers. Instead, customers place purchase orders that are subject to acceptance by us. The timing of the design activities for which we receive payment and the placement of orders included in our backlog at any particular time is generally within the control of the customer. For example, there could be a significant time lag between the commencement of design work and the delivery of a purchase order for the units of a developed product. Also, customers may from time to time revise delivery quantities or delivery schedules to 10 reflect their changing needs. For these reasons, our backlog as of any particular date is not a meaningful indicator of future sales. SAN SYSTEMS BACKLOG In the SAN Systems segment, our large customers who are original equipment manufacturers place orders that are subject to acceptance by us in accordance with their requirements and our delivery lead time capabilities. In our reseller channel, we typically receive requests for product to be delivered within two weeks or less. Accordingly, our backlog as of any particular date is not a meaningful indicator of future sales. COMPETITION SEMICONDUCTOR COMPETITORS The semiconductor industry is intensely competitive and characterized by constant technological change, rapid product obsolescence, evolving industry standards and price erosion. Many of our competitors are larger, diversified companies with substantially greater financial resources. Some of these also are customers who have internal semiconductor design and manufacturing capacity. We also compete with smaller and emerging companies whose strategy is to sell products into specialized markets or to provide a portion of the products and services that we offer. Our major competitors include large domestic companies such as IBM Corporation, Agere Systems, Inc., Texas Instruments, Inc., and Agilent Technologies, Inc. Other competitors in strategic markets include Adaptec, Inc., QLogic Corporation, PMC-Sierra, Inc., Broadcom Corporation, and Conexant Systems, Inc. We also face competition from certain large foreign corporations, including Philips Electronics, N.V., ST Microelectronics, S.A., and Toshiba Corporation. The principal competitive factors in the industry include: - design capabilities; - differentiating product features; - product performance characteristics; - time to market; - price; - manufacturing processes; and - utilization of emerging industry standards. We believe that we presently compete favorably with respect to these factors. It is possible, however, that other custom design solutions will be developed by our competitors that could have a material adverse impact on our competitive position. Our competitors may also decide from time to time to aggressively lower prices of products that compete with us in order to sell related products or achieve strategic goals. Strategic pricing by competitors can place strong pricing pressure on our products in certain transactions, resulting in lower selling prices and lower gross profit margins for those transactions. The markets into which we sell our semiconductor products are subject to severe price competition. We expect to continue to experience declines in the selling prices of our semiconductor products over the life cycle of each product. In order to offset or partially offset declines in the selling prices of our products, we must continue to reduce the costs of products through product design changes, manufacturing process changes, and yield improvements. We do not believe that we can continually achieve cost reductions that fully offset the price declines of our products, and therefore gross profit margin percentages will generally decline for existing products over their life cycles. 11 We are increasingly emphasizing our CoreWare design methodology and system-on-a-chip capability. Competitive factors that are important to the success of this strategy include: - selection, quantity and quality of our CoreWare library elements; - our ability to offer our customers systems level expertise; and - quality of software to support system-level integration. Although there are other companies that offer similar types of products and related services, we believe that we currently compete favorably with those companies. However, competition in this area is increasing, and there is no assurance that our CoreWare methodology approach and product offerings will continue to receive market acceptance. Customers in our targeted markets frequently require system-level solutions. Our ability to deliver complete solutions may also require that we succeed in obtaining licenses to necessary software and integrating this software with our semiconductors. SAN SYSTEMS COMPETITORS The SAN systems market is characterized by many of the same pressures found in the semiconductor industry. We believe that important competitive factors in the storage-systems market include the following: - product performance and price; - support for new industry and customer standards; - scalability; - interoperability with other network devices; - features and functionality; - availability; - reliability, technical service, and support; - quality of system integration; - existence and accessibility of differentiating features; and - quality and availability of supporting software. Our failure to compete successfully with respect to any of these or other factors could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Our SAN systems products compete primarily with products from independent storage providers such as EMC Corporation, Hitachi Data Systems Corporation and MTI Technology Corporation. In addition, many of our current and potential customers in this market have internal storage divisions that produce products that compete directly or indirectly with our storage-system products. There is no assurance that these customers, which include Hewlett-Packard Company, IBM Corporation, Sun Microsystems, Inc., Silicon Graphics and NCR, will continue to purchase our storage systems products. PATENTS, TRADEMARKS AND LICENSES The Company has filed a number of patent applications and currently holds numerous patents, expiring from 2002 to 2021, relating to certain of our products and technologies in both the Semiconductor and the SAN Systems segments. In both segments, we also maintain trademarks for certain of our products and services and claim copyright protection for certain proprietary software and documentation. Patents, trademarks, and other forms of protection for our intellectual property are important, but we believe our future success principally depends upon the technical competence and creative skills of our personnel. In the Semiconductor segment, we also protect our trade secret and other proprietary information through agreements with our customers, suppliers, employees, and consultants and through other security measures. We have entered into certain cross-license agreements that generally provide for the non-exclusive 12 licensing of rights to design, manufacture, and sell products and, in some cases, for cross-licensing of future improvements developed by either party. We continue to expand our portfolio of patents and trademarks. We offer a staged incentive to engineers to identify, document and submit invention disclosures. We have developed an internal review procedure to maintain a high level of disclosure quality and to establish priorities and plans for filings both in the United States and abroad. The review process is based solely on engineering and management judgment, with no assurance that a specific filing will issue, or if issued, will deliver any lasting value to us. There is no assurance that the rights granted under any patents will provide competitive advantages to us or will be adequate to safeguard and maintain our proprietary rights. Moreover, the laws of certain countries in which our products are or may be manufactured or sold may not protect our products and intellectual property rights to the same extent as the U.S. legal system. As is typical in the high technology industry, from time to time we have received communications from other parties asserting that certain of our products, processes, technologies or information infringe upon their patent rights, copyrights, trademark rights or other intellectual property rights. We regularly evaluate such assertions. In light of industry practice, we believe with respect to existing or future claims that any licenses or other rights that may be necessary can generally be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. Nevertheless, there is no assurance that licenses will be obtained on acceptable terms or that a claim will not result in litigation or other administrative proceedings. In the SAN Systems segment, we own a portfolio of patents and patent applications concerning a variety of storage technologies. We also maintain trademarks for certain of our products and services and claim copyright protection for certain proprietary software and documentation. Similar to the Semiconductor segment, we protect our trade secrets and other proprietary information through agreements and other security measures, and have implemented internal procedures to identify patentable inventions and pursue protection in selected jurisdictions. Please see Item 3, Legal Proceedings for information regarding pending patent litigation against LSI; please also refer to the additional risk factors set forth in the Risk Factors section; and Note 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Our industry is characterized by rapid changes in products, design tools, and process technologies. We must continue to improve our existing products, design-tool environment and process technologies and to develop new ones in a cost-effective manner to meet changing customer requirements and emerging industry standards. If we are not able to successfully introduce new products, design tools and process technologies or to achieve volume production of products at acceptable yields using new manufacturing processes, there could be a material adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition. We operate research and development facilities in California, Colorado, Oregon and Kansas. The following table shows our expenditures on research and development activities for each of the last three fiscal years (in thousands).
YEAR AMOUNT PERCENT OF REVENUE - ---- -------- ------------------ 2001...................................................... $503,108 28% 2000...................................................... $378,936 14% 1999...................................................... $297,554 14%
Research and development expenses primarily consist of salaries and related costs of employees engaged in ongoing research, design and development activities and subcontracting costs. 13 WORKING CAPITAL Information regarding our working capital practices is incorporated herein by reference from Item 7 of Part II hereof under the heading "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Financial Condition and Liquidity". FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT GEOGRAPHIC AREAS This information is included in Note 11 ("Segment Reporting") of Notes to Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, which information is incorporated herein by reference to Item 8 of Part II hereof. ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION Federal, state and local regulations, in addition to those of other nations, impose various environmental controls on the use and discharge of certain chemicals and gases used in semiconductor processing. Our facilities have been designed to comply with these regulations, and we believe that our activities conform to current environmental regulations. However, increasing public attention has been focused on the environmental impact of electronics and semiconductor manufacturing operations. While to date we have not experienced any material adverse impact on our business from environmental regulations, we cannot assure you that such regulations will not be amended so as to impose expensive obligations on us in the future. In addition, violations of environmental regulations or impermissible discharges of hazardous substances could result in the necessity for the following actions: - additional capital improvements to comply with such regulations or to restrict discharges; - liability to our employees and/or third parties; and/or - business interruptions as a consequence of permit suspensions or revocations or as a consequence of the granting of injunctions requested by governmental agencies or private parties. EMPLOYEES As of December 31, 2001, we had 6,737 full-time employees. In January 2002, the Company announced a series of restructuring actions to tailor the Company to its current lower level of revenues. These actions included reducing the worldwide workforce by approximately 1,400 positions or 20 percent of the Company's workforce. Our future success depends upon the continued service of our key technical and management personnel and on our ability to continue to attract and retain qualified employees, particularly those highly skilled design, process, and test engineers involved in the manufacture of existing products and the development of new products and processes. We currently have favorable employee relations, but the competition for such personnel is intense, and the loss of key employees or the inability to hire such employees when needed could have a material adverse input on our business and financial condition. SEASONALITY The Company's business is largely focused on the communications and consumer products markets. As a result, the Company's results may follow a seasonal pattern, with stronger growth in the second half of the year, reflecting the buying patterns of the Company's customers. 14 RISK FACTORS Keep these risk factors in mind when you read "forward-looking" statements elsewhere in this Form 10-K and in the documents incorporated herein by reference. These are statements that relate to our expectations for future events and time periods. Generally, the words, "anticipate," "expect," "intend' and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. We operate in a cyclical industry and a general economic downturn may reduce our revenues. The semiconductor industry is cyclical in nature and is characterized by wide fluctuations in product supply and demand. In 2001, the economic growth in the United States slowed significantly, which in turn, led to a severe downturn in the semiconductor industry. During a period of industry overcapacity, profitability can drop sharply as factory utilization declines and high fixed costs of operating wafer fabrication facilities are spread over a lower net revenue base. The Company's overall business bottomed in 2001 and the Company is on track to restore profitability in the near future. However, any additional terrorist activities may adversely affect the U.S. economy. In turn, we may face interruption of production and services due to increased security measures in light of recent terrorist activities, which may affect the recovery of the Company in 2002 and adversely impact its operating results and financial condition. Our product and process development activities occur in a highly competitive environment characterized by rapid technological change. The Semiconductor and SAN Systems segments in which we conduct business are characterized by rapid technological change, short product cycles and evolving industry standards. We believe our future success depends, in part, on our ability to improve on existing technologies and to develop and implement new ones in order to continue to reduce semiconductor chip size and improve product performance and manufacturing yields. We must also be able to adopt and implement emerging industry standards and to adapt products and processes to technological changes. If we are not able to implement new process technologies successfully or to achieve volume production of new products at acceptable yields, our operating results and financial condition will be adversely impacted. In addition, we must continue to develop and introduce new products that compete effectively on the basis of price and performance and that satisfy customer requirements. We continue to emphasize engineering development and acquisition of CoreWare building blocks and integration of our CoreWare libraries into our design capabilities. Our cores and standard products are intended to be based upon industry standard functions, interfaces and protocols so that they are useful in a wide variety of systems applications. Development of new products and cores often requires long-term forecasting of market trends, development and implementation of new or changing technologies and a substantial capital commitment. We cannot assure you that the cores or standard products that we select for investment of our financial and engineering resources will be developed or acquired in a timely manner or will enjoy market acceptance. We operate highly complex and costly manufacturing facilities. The manufacture and introduction of our products is a complicated process. We confront challenges in the manufacturing process that require us to: - maintain a competitive manufacturing cost structure; - implement the latest process technologies required to manufacture new products; - exercise stringent quality control measures to ensure high yields; - effectively manage the subcontractors engaged in the test and assembly of products; and - update equipment and facilities as required for leading edge production capabilities. We do not control the timing or size of orders for our products. We generally do not have long-term volume production contracts with our customers. There is a risk that we will be unable to meet sudden increases in demand beyond our current manufacturing capacity, which may result in additional capital expenditures and production costs. On the other hand, order volumes below anticipated levels may result in the under-utilization of our manufacturing facilities, resulting in higher per unit costs, which could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. 15 Our manufacturing facilities are subject to disruption. Our newest wafer fabrication site located in Gresham, Oregon is a highly complex, state-of-the-art facility. Anticipated production rates depend upon the reliable operation and effective integration of a variety of hardware and software components. There is no assurance that all of these components will be fully functional or successfully integrated on time or that the facility will achieve the forecasted yield targets. The capital expenditures required to bring the facility to full operating capacity may be greater than we anticipate and result in lower margins. Operations at any of our primary manufacturing facilities, or at any of our test and assembly subcontractors, may be disrupted for reasons beyond our control, including work stoppages, fire, earthquake, floods or other natural disasters. Recently, California experienced a power shortage. Any future shortages could subject us to electrical "blackouts" or other unscheduled interruption of electrical power. We outsource a substantial portion of wafers manufactured. The Company has developed outsourcing arrangements for the manufacture of some of its products based on a process technology that the Company does not possess. There is no assurance that the third party manufacturer will be able to produce and deliver wafers that meet the Company's specifications or that it will be able to provide successfully the process technology it has committed. If the third party is not able to deliver products and process technology on a timely and reliable basis, the Company's results of operations could be adversely affected. We have significant capital requirements to maintain and grow our business. In order to remain competitive, we must continue to make significant investments in new facilities and capital equipment. During 2002, we anticipate that we will spend less than $200 million on capital assets and that we will be required to spend potentially larger amounts thereafter. In addition, the high level of capital expenditures required to remain competitive results in relatively high fixed costs. If demand for our products does not absorb additional capacity, the fixed costs and operating expenses related to increases in our production capacity could have a material adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition. We finance our capital expenditure needs from operating cash flows, bank financing and capital market financing. As of December 31, 2001, we had convertible notes outstanding of approximately $1.3 billion. As of December 31, 2001, we have two operating leases financed by several commercial banks. We may need to seek additional equity or debt financing from time to time, including issuance of warrants and cannot be certain that additional financing will be available on favorable terms. Moreover, any future equity or convertible debt financing will decrease the percentage of equity ownership of existing stockholders and may result in dilution, depending on the price at which the equity is sold or the debt is converted. We are exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We have international subsidiaries and distributors that operate and sell our products globally. Further, we purchase a substantial portion of our raw materials and manufacturing equipment from foreign suppliers, and incur labor and other operating costs in foreign currencies, particularly in our Japanese manufacturing facilities. As a result, we are exposed to the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates or declining economic conditions in these countries. We do business in Europe and face risks associated with the Euro. A new European currency was implemented in January 1999 to replace the separate currencies of eleven western European countries, and beginning in January 2002, was the only effective currency in these countries. This has required changes in our operations as we modified systems and commercial arrangements to deal with the new currency. We procure parts and raw materials from limited domestic and foreign sources. We use a wide range of parts and raw materials in the production of our semiconductors, host adapter boards, and storage systems, including silicon wafers, processing chemicals, and electronic and mechanical components. We do not generally have guaranteed supply arrangements with our suppliers and do not maintain an extensive inventory of parts and materials for manufacturing. We purchase some of these parts and materials from a limited number of vendors and some from a single supplier. On occasion, we have experienced difficulty in securing an adequate volume and quality of parts and materials. There is no assurance that, if we have difficulty in obtaining parts or materials in the future, alternative suppliers will be available, or that these suppliers will provide parts and materials in a timely manner or on favorable terms. As a result, we may be adversely affected by delays in new and current product shipments. If we cannot obtain adequate materials for 16 manufacture of our products, there could be a material adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition. We operate in highly competitive markets. We compete in markets that are intensely competitive and that exhibit both rapid technological change and continual price erosion. Our competitors include many large domestic and foreign companies that have substantially greater financial, technical and management resources than we do. Several major diversified electronics companies offer ASIC products and/or other standard products that are competitive with our product lines. Other competitors are specialized, rapidly growing companies that sell products into the same markets that we target. Some of our large customers may develop internal design and production capabilities to manufacture their own products, thereby displacing our products. There is no assurance that the price and performance of our products will be superior relative to the products of our competitors. As a result, we may experience a loss of competitive position that could result in lower prices, fewer customer orders, reduced revenues, reduced gross profit margins and loss of market share. To remain competitive, we continually evaluate our worldwide operations, looking for additional cost savings and technological improvements. Our future competitive performance depends on a number of factors, including our ability to: - properly identify target markets; - accurately identify emerging technological trends and demand for product features and performance characteristics; - develop and maintain competitive products; - enhance our products by adding innovative features that differentiate our products from those of our competitors; - bring products to market on a timely basis at competitive prices; - respond effectively to new technological changes or new product announcements by others; - adapt products and processes to technological changes; and - adopt and/or set emerging industry standards. We may not meet our design, development and introduction schedules for new products or enhancements to our existing and future products. In addition, our products may not achieve market acceptance or sell at favorable prices. We are dependent on a limited number of customers. We are increasingly dependent on a limited number of customers for a substantial portion of revenues as a result of our strategy to focus our marketing and selling efforts on select, large-volume customers. One customer represented 18% of our total consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2001. In the Semiconductor segment, one customer represented 21% of total Semiconductor revenues for the year ended December 31, 2001. In the SAN Systems segment, there were two customers with revenues representing 21% each, and one customer with revenues representing 13% of total SAN Systems revenues for the year ended December 31, 2001. Our operating results and financial condition could be affected if: - we do not win new product designs from major customers; - major customers reduce or cancel their existing business with us; - major customers make significant changes in scheduled deliveries; or - there are declines in the prices of products that we sell to these customers. We utilize indirect channels of distribution over which we exercise limited control. We derive a material percentage of product revenues from independent reseller and distributor channels. Our financial results could be adversely affected if our relationship with these resellers or distributors were to deteriorate or if the financial condition of these resellers or distributors were to decline. Given the current economic environment, the risk of 17 distributors going out of business is significantly increased. In addition, as our business grows, we may have an increased reliance on indirect channels of distribution. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in maintaining or expanding these indirect channels of distribution. This could result in the loss of certain sales opportunities. Furthermore, the partial reliance on indirect channels of distribution may reduce our visibility with respect to future business, thereby making it more difficult to accurately forecast orders. Our Company operations are affected by cyclical fluctuations. The Semiconductor and SAN Systems segments in which we compete are subject to cyclical fluctuations in demand. In 2001, we experienced declines in sales or the prices of our products as a result of the following: - rapid technological change, product obsolescence, and price erosion in our products; - maturing product cycles in our products or products sold by our customers; - increases in worldwide manufacturing capacity for semiconductors, resulting in declining prices; reduced product demand; - excess inventory within the supply chain; and - decline of the United States and worldwide economy, causing declines in our product markets or the markets of our suppliers and customers. The semiconductor industry has in the past experienced periods of rapid expansion of production capacity. Even when the demand for our products remains constant, the availability of additional excess production capacity in the industry creates competitive pressure that can degrade pricing levels, which can reduce revenues. Furthermore, customers who benefit from shorter lead times may defer some purchases to future periods, which could affect our demand and revenues for the short term. As a result, we may experience downturns or fluctuations in demand in the future and experience adverse effects on our operating results and financial condition. We engage in acquisitions and alliances giving rise to economic and technological risks. We intend to continue to make investments in companies, products and technologies, either through acquisitions or investment alliances. Acquisitions and investment activities often involve risks, including the need to: - acquire timely access to needed capital for investments related to acquisitions and alliances; - conduct acquisitions that are timely relative to existing business opportunities; - successfully prevail over competing bidders for target acquisitions at an acceptable price; - invest in companies and technologies that contribute to the growth of our business; - retain the key employees of the acquired operation; - incorporate acquired operations into our business and maintain uniform standards, controls, and procedures; and - develop the capabilities necessary to exploit newly acquired technologies. Mergers and acquisitions of high-technology companies bear inherent risks. No assurance can be given that our previous or future acquisitions will be successful and will not materially adversely affect our business, operating results or financial condition. We must manage any growth effectively. Failure to manage growth effectively and to integrate acquisitions could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. There is uncertainty associated with our research and development investments. Our research and development activities are intended to maintain and enhance our competitive position by utilizing the latest advances in the design and manufacture of semiconductors and storage systems including networking, communications and storage technologies. Technical innovations are inherently complex and require long development cycles and the commitment of extensive engineering resources. We must incur substantial research and development costs to confirm the technical feasibility and commercial viability of a product that in the end may not be successful. If we are not able to successfully and timely complete our research and 18 development programs, we may face competitive disadvantages. There is no assurance that we will recover the development costs associated with such programs or that we will be able to secure the financial resources necessary to fund future research and development efforts. The price of our securities may be subject to wide fluctuations. Our stock has experienced substantial price volatility, particularly as a result of quarterly variations in results, the published expectation of analysts, and as a result of announcements by our competitors and us. In addition, the stock market has experienced price and volume fluctuations that have affected the market price of many technology companies, in particular, and that have often been unrelated to the operating performance of such companies. In addition, the price of our securities may also be affected by general global, economic and market conditions, and the cost of operations in one or more of our product markets. While we cannot predict the individual effect that these factors may have on the price or our securities, these factors, either individually or in the aggregate, could result in significant variations in price during any given period of time. These fluctuations in our stock price also impact the price of our outstanding convertible securities and the likelihood of the convertible securities being converted into cash or equity. If we are required to redeem any of the convertible securities for cash it may affect our liquidity position. Our global operations expose the Company to numerous international business risks. We have substantial business activities in Asia and Europe. Both manufacturing and sales of our products may be adversely impacted by changes in political and economic conditions abroad. A change in the current tax laws, tariff structures, export laws, regulatory requirements or trade policies in either the United States or foreign countries could adversely impact our ability to manufacture or sell our products in foreign markets. Moreover, a significant decrease in sales by our customers to end users in either Asia or Europe could result in a decline in orders. We subcontract test and assembly functions to independent companies located in Asia. A reduction in the number or capacity of qualified subcontractors or a substantial increase in pricing could cause longer lead times, delays in the delivery of products to customers, or increased costs. The high technology industry in which we operate is prone to intellectual property litigation. Our success is dependent in part on our technology and other proprietary rights, and we believe that there is value in the protection afforded by our patents, patent applications and trademarks. However, the industry is characterized by rapidly changing technology and our future success depends primarily on the technical competence and creative skills of our personnel, rather than on patent and trademark protection. As is typical in the high technology industry, from time to time we have received communications from other parties asserting that certain of our products, processes, technologies or information infringe upon their patent rights, copyrights, trademark rights or other intellectual property rights. We regularly evaluate such assertions. In light of industry practice, we believe with respect to existing or future claims that any licenses or other rights that may be necessary can generally be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. Nevertheless, there is no assurance that licenses will be obtained on acceptable terms or that a claim will not result in litigation or other administrative proceedings. Resolution of whether the Company's product or intellectual property has infringed on valid rights held by others could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operation and may require material changed in production processes and products See Item 3 "Legal Proceedings" contained in Part I of this Report. We must attract and retain key employees in a highly competitive environment. Our employees are vital to our success and our key management, engineering and other employees are difficult to replace. We do not generally have employment contracts with our key employees. We do, however, maintain key person life insurance for one of our employees. The expansion of high technology companies in Silicon Valley, Colorado, Oregon and elsewhere where we operate our business has increased demand and competition for qualified personnel, and despite the economic slowdown, competition for these personnel is intense. Our continued growth and future operating results will depend upon our ability to attract, hire and retain significant numbers of qualified employees. 19 See also the Critical Accounting Policies contained in Part II, Item 7 of the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES The Company's Milpitas facilities are leased and contain the Company's corporate executive headquarters (for both the Semiconductor segment and the SAN Systems segment), administration and engineering offices. The Company maintains leased facilities in Fremont California, housing engineering offices, logistics and warehouses. The Company owns the land and buildings housing its manufacturing facilities for the Semiconductor segment in Gresham, Oregon, Tsukuba, Japan, Fort Collins, Colorado, and owns the manufacturing control, assembly and test facilities in Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong. In April 2001, the Company announced the closure of its Colorado Springs fabrication facility in August 2001. In May 2001, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell the facility to a third party. On August 1, 2001, the Company announced the termination of the agreement to sell the facility. The Company closed the facility in October 2001 and intends to dispose the assets within the next 12 months. In September 2001, the Company announced the consolidation of its U.S. manufacturing operations at Gresham, Oregon, and the transfer of process research and development from Santa Clara, California, to Gresham, Oregon. As a result, the Company closed the Santa Clara manufacturing facility. The lease for this facility will expire in 2003. The Company does not plan on subleasing this facility at this time. In the SAN Systems segment, the Company owns the manufacturing and executive offices site in Wichita, Kansas. In addition, we maintain leased sales and engineering offices, regional office space for our field sales, marketing and design center offices for both our Semiconductor segment and our SAN Systems segment at various locations in North America, Europe, Japan and elsewhere in Asia. We also maintain design centers at various distributor locations. We also maintain leased executive offices, design centers and sales offices in Bracknell, UK and Tokyo, Japan. Leased facilities described above are subject to operating leases that expire in 2002 through 2011. (See Note 12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.) We have plans to acquire additional equipment for some of the above facilities, but we believe that our existing facilities and equipment are well maintained, in good operating condition, suitable for our operations and are adequate to meet our current requirements. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS In late 1995, a lawsuit was filed by certain former shareholders of our Canadian subsidiary ("LSI Canada") in the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta, Judicial District of Calgary (the "Court") in which the question of LSI Canada's value at September 7, 1995 is to be determined. At present, parties representing approximately 580,000 shares are contesting the value of $4.00 (Canadian) that was paid to the other former shareholders of LSI Canada at the time all shares of LSI Canada not then owned by the Company were acquired by the Company. Following a hearing held in March 2001, the Court dismissed the motion of the former shareholders that challenged the proprietary of the fair value proceedings initiated by LSI Canada and the jurisdiction of the Court to adjudicate the matter. In addition, the Court ruled that the portions of the application of the former shareholders to initiate a claim based upon allegations that our actions and certain named (former) directors and a (former) officer of LSI Canada were oppressive of the rights of minority shareholders of LSI Canada were to be struck and the balance of the claims were stayed. The Court also directed all of the litigants to recommence preparation for trial in the fair value proceeding and advised the litigants of the Court's intention to schedule a date for trial of that matter as soon as practicable. While we cannot give any assurances regarding the resolution of these matters, we believe that the final outcome will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition. No assurance can be given, however, that these matters will be resolved without our becoming obligated to make payments 20 or to pay other costs to the opposing parties, with the potential for having an adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. In February 1999, a lawsuit alleging patent infringement was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona by the Lemelson Medical, Education & Research Foundation, Limited Partnership against 88 electronics industry companies, including us. The case number is CIV990377PHXRGS. The patents involved in this lawsuit are alleged to relate to semiconductor manufacturing and computer imaging, including the use of bar coding for automatic identification of articles. In September 1999, we filed an answer denying infringement, raising affirmative defenses and asserting a counterclaim for declaratory judgment of non-infringement, invalidity and unenforceability of Lemelson's patents. In December 2001, the court held a hearing on Cypress Semiconductor's and plaintiff's cross-motions for summary judgment with respect to the 4,390,586 patent. In February 2002, the court denied Cypress Semiconductor's motion for summary judgment. The court also granted the plaintiff's cross motion in part with respect to Cypress Semiconductor and denied the cross-motion with respect to all other defendants. These activities are ongoing, and as yet, no trial date has been set. While we cannot make any assurance regarding the eventual resolution of this matter, we do not believe it will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition. U.S. Philips Corporation, a subsidiary of Royal Philips Electronics of Netherlands, filed suits on October 17, 2001 in the U.S. District Court in New York against eight companies, including us, for allegedly infringing and inducing others to infringe Philips U.S. Patent Number 4,689,740. This patent is directed to devices and methods used with the Inter-Integrated Circuit Bus. While we cannot make any assurance regarding the eventual resolution of this matter, we do not believe it will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition. The Company is a party to other litigation matters and claims that are normal in the course of its operations, and while the results of such litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company believes that the final outcome of such matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial position.

The Company's fiscal years ended on December 31 in 2001, 2000, 1999, 1998 and 1997. During 2001, the Company recorded a $97 million in-process research and development ("IPR&D") charge associated with the acquisitions of C-Cube and AMI, which were effective on May 11, 2001 and August 31, 2001, respectively. In addition, the Company recorded $220 million in restructuring of operations and other non-recurring items, net and $105 million in amortization of non-cash deferred stock compensation. (See Notes 2 24 and 4 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.) During 2000, the Company recorded a $77 million IPR&D charge associated with the acquisitions of ParaVoice, DataPath, IntraServer and the purchases of divisions of NeoMagic and Cacheware. In addition, the Company recorded $41 million in non-cash deferred stock compensation as a result of the adoption of FASB interpretation ("FIN") No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation," which was effective July 1, 2000. (See Note 2 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.) During 1999, the Company expensed an unamortized preproduction balance of $92 million, net of taxes, associated with the manufacturing facility in Gresham, Oregon and has presented it as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in accordance with SOP No. 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-up Activities." (See Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.) During 1998, the Company reported a charge for restructuring of operations and other non-recurring items, net of $75 million and a $146 million IPR&D charge related to the acquisition of Symbios on August 6, 1998. 25 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS We operate in an industry sector where stock values are highly volatile and may be influenced by economic and other factors beyond our control. We believe that our future operating results will continue to be subject to quarterly variations based upon a wide variety of factors. See additional discussion contained in "Risk Factors" set forth in Part I, Item 1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001, which is incorporated by reference into this Part II, Item 7. Statements in this discussion and analysis include forward-looking information within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Our actual results in future periods may be significantly different from any future performance suggested in this report. Risks and uncertainties that may affect our results may include, among others: FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS - The current economic downturn; - Cyclical nature of both the Semiconductor and SAN Systems industries and the markets addressed by our products; - Availability and extent of utilization of manufacturing capacity; - Price erosion; - Competitive factors; - Timing of new product introductions; - Changes in product mix; - Fluctuations in manufacturing yields; - Product obsolescence; - Business and product market cycles; - Economic and technological risks associated with our acquisition and alliance activities; and - The ability to develop and implement new technologies. Our operating results could also be impacted by sudden fluctuations in customer requirements, currency exchange rate fluctuations and other economic conditions affecting customer demand and the cost of operations in one or more of the global markets in which we do business. We operate in a technologically advanced, rapidly changing and highly competitive environment. We predominantly sell custom products to customers operating in a similar environment. Accordingly, changes in the conditions of any of our customers may have a greater impact on our operating results and financial condition than if we predominantly offered standard products that could be sold to many purchasers. While we cannot predict what effect these various factors may have on our financial results, the aggregate effect of these and other factors could result in significant volatility in our future performance. To the extent our performance may not meet expectations published by external sources, public reaction could result in a sudden and significantly adverse impact on the market price of our securities, particularly on a short-term basis. We have international subsidiaries and distributors that operate and sell our products globally. Further, we purchase a substantial portion of our raw materials and manufacturing equipment from foreign suppliers and incur labor and other operating costs in foreign currencies, particularly in our Japanese manufacturing facilities. As a result, we are exposed to the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates or declining economic conditions in these countries. We utilize forward exchange and purchased currency option contracts to manage our exposure associated with net asset and liability positions and cash flows denominated in non-functional currencies. (See Note 6 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, hereafter referred 26 to as the Notes.) There is no assurance that these hedging transactions will eliminate exposure to currency rate fluctuations that could affect our operating results. Our corporate headquarters and some of our manufacturing facilities are located near major earthquake faults. As a result, in the event of a major earthquake, we could suffer damages that could significantly and adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. Where more than one significant factor contributed to changes in results from year to year, we have quantified material factors throughout the MD&A where practicable. While management believes that the discussion and analysis in this report is adequate for a fair presentation of the information, we recommend that you read this discussion and analysis in conjunction with the remainder of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on the consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Note 1 of the Notes describes the significant accounting policies essential to the consolidated financial statements. The preparation of these financial statements requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. We believe the following to be critical accounting policies. That is, they are both important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and results, and they require critical management judgments and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. Although we believe that our judgments and estimates are appropriate and correct, actual future results may differ from our estimates. Inventory reserves. We establish reserves for estimated excess or obsolete inventory based upon assumptions about demand and market conditions generally over the following 12 months. We operate in a volatile industry sector characterized by rapid changes in technology and market conditions. Valuation of long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill. We operate our own wafer fabrication facilities and make significant capital expenditures to ensure that we are technologically competitive. In addition, we have actively pursued the acquisition of businesses which have resulted in significant goodwill and intangible assets. We assess the impairment of long-lived assets, identifiable intangibles and related goodwill whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors which we consider could trigger an impairment review include the following: (i) significant negative industry or economic trends; (ii) exiting an activity in conjunction with a restructuring of operations; (iii) current, historical or projected losses that demonstrate continuing losses associated with an asset; or (iv) a significant decline in our market capitalization relative to net book value. When we determine that there is an indicator that the carrying value of long-lived assets, identifiable intangibles and related goodwill may not be recoverable, we measure impairment based on estimates of future cash flow. These estimates include assumptions about future conditions within the Company and the industry. Restructuring reserves. We have recorded reserves for restructuring costs related to the restructuring of operations. The restructuring costs include payments to employees for severance, lease and contract termination fees, decommissioning costs for fabrication equipment, and other costs to close facilities. The reserves are recorded at the time we announce a plan to exit certain activities and are based on estimates of the costs and length of time to exit those activities. Income taxes. We have recorded a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. We have considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance. 27 OVERVIEW Revenues decreased 35% to $1.78 billion in 2001 from $2.74 billion in 2000. The decrease was primarily the result of decreased demand, most notably for products used in broadband access, networking infrastructure, storage infrastructure applications, and storage area network ("SAN") systems, reflecting the economic downturn in the industry. The decline in revenues was partially offset by the additional revenues from acquisitions of C-Cube Microsystems, Inc. ("C-Cube") and the RAID division of American Megatrends, Inc. ("AMI") in 2001. Gross profit margin decreased to 23% in 2001 from 43% in 2000 primarily as a result of decreased revenue for higher margin products, higher manufacturing variances and period costs as a percentage of revenues and additional excess inventory and related charges of $210.6 million for 2001 as compared to $11.1 million in 2000. The decrease in gross profit margin was offset in part by cost-saving measures undertaken during 2001 discussed further in Note 4 of the Notes. Operating expenses increased 61% to $1.4 billion in 2001 from $880 million in 2000. The increase was primarily a result of the operating expenses of C-Cube and AMI, a $219.6 million charge for restructuring and other non-recurring items, net, and other acquisition-related charges of $96.6 million for in-process research and development ("IPR&D"), $104.6 million for amortization of non-cash deferred stock compensation and $188.3 million in amortization of intangibles. (See Notes 2 and 4 of the Notes.) Research and development ("R&D") costs increased by $124.2 million in 2001 due to additional costs incurred in connection with acquisitions in 2001 and continued core business spending, which was offset in part by cost-saving measures undertaken during the year. Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") costs remained relatively flat from year to year. Incremental, post-acquisition SG&A expenses of C-Cube and AMI were largely offset by cost-saving measures undertaken during the year. For the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, gains on sale of investments in equity securities were $5.3 million and $80.1 million, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2001, we recorded a net loss of $992.0 million, or $2.84 loss per diluted share, compared to net income for the same period in 2000 of $236.6 million, or $0.70 income per diluted share. A further discussion on results of operations is covered below. Cash and short-term investments decreased by 11% to $1.01 billion as of December 31, 2001 from $1.13 billion as of December 31, 2000. The decrease is primarily attributable to lower cash flows from our continuing operations. Some of the major transactions that impacted cash and short-term investments during the year were as follows: - Payments for acquisitions made in 2001. - In the third quarter of 2001, we amended the master lease and security agreements entered into in April 2001 and March 2000. (See Note 12 of the Notes.) Pursuant to the amendments, we participated as a debt holder in the lease transactions replacing some of the existing banks. As of December 31, 2001, our debt contribution of $242 million was recorded as non-current assets on the balance sheet. We cash collateralized $54 million of the remaining debt and equity investments of the lessors. This was also recorded as non-current assets and deposits. - On October 30, 2001, we issued $490 million of 4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due in 2006, increasing our long term liabilities to $1.5 billion at December 31, 2001 from $936.1 million at December 31, 2000. (See Note 8 of the Notes.) Our significant cash position provides us with the capital to make strategic acquisitions and to continue investing in key technologies. Stock split. On January 25, 2000, we announced a two-for-one common stock split, which was declared by the Board of Directors as a 100% stock dividend payable to stockholders of record on February 4, 2000 as one new share of common stock for each share held on that date. The newly issued common stock shares were distributed on February 16, 2000. In the following discussion and analysis, stockholders' equity has been restated to give retroactive recognition to the two-for-one common stock split announced on January 25, 2000 for all periods presented by reclassifying the par value of the newly issued shares arising from the split from additional paid-in capital to common stock. In addition, all references in the financial statements to number of shares, per share amounts, stock option data and market prices of our common stock have been restated. 28 Acquisitions and other major transactions. We are continually exploring strategic acquisitions that build upon our existing library of intellectual property and increase our leadership position in the markets where we operate. 2001 During 2001, we acquired C-Cube Microsystems Inc. and certain tangible and intangible assets associated with the Redundant Array of Independent Disks, or RAID, business of American Megatrends, Inc. The acquisitions were accounted for as purchases and, accordingly, the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the results of operations were included in our Consolidated Financial Statements as of the effective date of each acquisition through the end of the period. The acquisitions are summarized below. (See Note 2 of the Notes.)

On April 4, 2001, we announced a co-development and foundry supply agreement with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Ltd. ("TSMC"). This agreement is part of our strategy to "outsource," that is to procure a larger portion of our wafer requirements from external sources. As a result of our joint development efforts with TSMC we anticipate purchasing, consistent with our "outsourcing" strategy, such portion of our wafer volume requirements based on the 0.13-micron process technology that we do not manufacture ourselves. In addition, we anticipate being able to defer the need to expand our manufacturing capacity for the 0.13-micron technology beyond the time when products designed for that technology would begin volume production. We also anticipate collaborating with TSMC on further advancement in wafer fabrication technology. 2000 During 2000, we acquired a division of NeoMagic Corporation ("NeoMagic"), a division of Cacheware, Inc. ("Cacheware"), Intraserver Technology, Inc. ("Intraserver"), DataPath Systems, Inc. ("DataPath"), ParaVoice Technologies, Inc. ("ParaVoice") and Syntax Systems, Inc. ("Syntax"). The acquisitions were accounted for as purchases and accordingly, the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the results of operations were included in our consolidated financial statements as of the effective date of each acquisition through the end of the period. These transactions are summarized below. There were no significant differences between the accounting policies of LSI and the companies acquired. (See Note 2 of the Notes.)

In the second quarter of 2001, the NeoMagic research project was abandoned and the remaining intangibles and goodwill recorded in connection with the project were written off. See the discussion under restructuring of operations and other non-recurring items for details. 29 1999 On June 22, 1999, we combined with SEEQ Technology, Inc.

All financial information has been restated retroactively to reflect the combined operations of LSI Logic and SEEQ as if the combination has occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. (See Note 2 of the Notes.) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Revenue. Total revenues decreased 35% to $1.78 billion in 2001 from $2.74 billion in 2000. Revenues for the Semiconductor segment decreased 33% to $1.57 billion in 2001 from $2.34 billion in 2000. The decrease was primarily attributable to decreased demand, most notably for products used in broadband access, networking infrastructure and storage infrastructure applications, reflecting the economic downturn in the semiconductor industry. The decline in revenues in this sector was offset partially by the additional revenues from C-Cube and AMI. Revenues for the SAN Systems segment decreased 47% to $211.3 million in 2001 from $399.1 million in 2000 due to decreased demand reflecting industry declines for all products sold in the SAN Systems segment. As the economic trends reverse, we expect to see sequential quarterly growth in revenues of up to 3% in the first quarter of 2002 from the $406 million in the fourth quarter of 2001. Total revenues increased 31% to $2.74 billion in 2000 from $2.09 billion in 1999. Revenues for the Semiconductor segment increased 29% to $2.34 billion in 2000 from $1.81 billion in 1999. Significant factors that contributed to this revenue growth included increased demand for semiconductor products used in broadband communications, networking infrastructure and storage infrastructure applications, particularly in broadband access and networks, and storage components. Revenues for the SAN Systems segment increased 43% to $399.1 million in 2000 from $279.3 million in 1999. The increase was attributable to growth in demand for all products used in the SAN Systems segment. One customer represented 18% of our total consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2001 and another customer represented 12% and 11% of our total consolidated revenues for each of the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. One customer represented 21% of total revenues in the Semiconductor segment for the year ended December 31, 2001. During 2000, no customer represented 10% or more of total revenues in the Semiconductor segment. During 1999, one customer represented 10% of total Semiconductor revenues. In the SAN Systems segment, there were two customers with revenues representing 21% each, and one customer representing 13% of total SAN Systems revenues for the year ended December 31, 2001. During 2000, there were three customers with revenues representing 31%, 17% and 13% of total SAN Systems revenues. During 1999, there were three customers with revenues representing 29%, 27% and 14% of SAN Systems revenues. Revenues from domestic operations were $880.8 million, representing 49% of consolidated revenues for 2001, as compared to $1.7 billion and $1.2 billion for 2000 and 1999, representing 61% and 58% of consolidated revenues, respectively. The decline in domestic revenues is mainly due to the severity of the economic downturn in the U.S. as compared to Pan Asia and Japan. Operating costs and expenses. Key elements of the consolidated statements of operations, expressed as a percentage of revenues for the respective segment, were as follows:

30 Key elements of the statement of operations for the Semiconductor and SAN Systems segments, expressed as a percentage of revenues, were as follows:
2001 2000 1999 ---- ---- ---- SEMICONDUCTOR SEGMENT: Gross profit margin......................................... 22% 44% 39% Research and development.................................... 30% 15% 15% Selling, general and administrative......................... 15% 11% 12% (Loss)/income from operations...............................

Gross profit margin. We have advanced wafer manufacturing operations in Oregon and Japan. We also acquire wafers from foundries in other locations. This allows us to maintain our ability to provide products to customers with minimal disruption in the manufacturing process due to economic and geographic risks associated with each geographic location. The gross profit margin percentage for 2001 decreased to 23% from 43% in 2000 on a consolidated basis, reflecting lower gross profit margins in both of our segments. The gross profit margin percentage for the Semiconductor segment was 22% in 2001 compared to 44% in 2000. The decrease in the semiconductor segment primarily reflect the economic downturn as evidenced by: - Decreased revenue for higher margin products; - Higher manufacturing variances and period costs as a percentage of revenues; - Additional excess inventory and related charges of $204.6 million in 2001. The additional excess inventory and related charges were primarily associated with underutilization charges related to a temporary idling of our fabrication facilities, coupled with inventory production in anticipation of the closing of our Colorado Springs fabrication facility (see Note 4 of the Notes) and a sudden and significant decrease in forecasted revenue, and was calculated in accordance with our policy, which is primarily based on inventory levels in excess of 12-month judged demand for each specific product. The gross profit margin percentage for the SAN Systems segment was 30% in 2001 compared to 38% in 2000. The decrease is primarily attributable to decreased revenue for higher margin products and additional excess inventory and related charges of approximately $6 million recorded during 2001. The gross profit margin percentage for 2000 increased to 43% from 38% in 1999 on a consolidated basis, reflecting improved gross profit margins in both of our segments. The gross profit margin percentage for the Semiconductor segment was 44% in 2000 compared to 39% in 1999. The increase primarily reflected a combination of the following factors: - Increased production capacity utilization at our fabrication facility in Gresham, Oregon, which commenced operations in December 1998, and - Increased revenue from higher margin products used in broadband communications and storage infrastructure applications. 31 The increase in gross profit margin in 2000 as compared to 1999 was offset in part by the following factors: - $11.1 million non-recurring charge associated with the elimination of a non-strategic product area, and - An increase in compensation-related expenses. The gross profit margin percentage for the SAN Systems segment was 38% in 2000 compared to 33% in 1999. The increase is primarily attributable to changes in product mix to include newer generation products, which have higher margins than other SAN business products. Our operating environment, combined with the resources required to operate in the semiconductor industry, requires that we manage a variety of factors. These factors include, among other things: - Product mix; - Factory capacity and utilization; - Manufacturing yields; - Availability of certain raw materials; - Terms negotiated with third-party subcontractors; and - Foreign currency fluctuations. These and other factors could have a significant effect on our gross profit margin in future periods. Changes in the relative strength of the yen may have a greater impact on our gross profit margin than other foreign exchange fluctuations due to our wafer fabrication operations in Japan. Although the yen weakened (the average yen exchange rate for 2001 depreciated 14% from 2000), the effect on gross profit margin and net income was not significant because yen-denominated sales offset a substantial portion of yen-denominated costs during the period. Moreover, we hedged a portion of our remaining yen exposure. (See Note 6 of the Notes.) Future changes in the relative strength of the yen or mix of foreign currency denominated revenues and costs could have a significant effect on our gross profit margin or operating results. Research and development. R&D expenses increased 33% to $503.1 million during 2001 as compared to $378.9 million in 2000 on a consolidated basis. R&D expenses for the Semiconductor segment increased 35% to $473.1 million in 2001 from $351.7 million in 2000. The increase was attributable to the following factors: - Increased R&D activities based on new R&D projects, including those acquired in business combinations in 2001 (see Note 2 of the Notes); - Expenditures related to the continued development of advanced sub-micron products and process technologies. The increase was offset in part by $20.0 million and $24.0 million of research and development benefits associated with a technology transfer agreement entered into with Silterra in Malaysia during 2001 and 2000, respectively. (See Note 3 of the Notes.) We will record an additional $4.0 million credit to R&D over the remaining contract term of less than one year for technology to be transferred to Silterra. R&D expenses for the SAN Systems segment increased 10% to $30.0 million in 2001 from $27.2 million in 2000. The increase is primarily attributable to higher compensation-related expenses due to an increase in average headcount during the periods presented. R&D increased 27% to $378.9 million during 2000 as compared to $297.6 million in 1999. R&D expenses for the Semiconductor segment increased 29% to $351.7 million in 2000 from $271.8 million in 1999. The increase was attributable to the following factors: - Increased R&D activities based on the acquisitions of companies during 2000 (see Note 2 of the Notes); 32 - Expenditures related to the continued development of advanced sub-micron products and process technologies; and - Increased compensation costs during 2000. The increase was offset in part by $24.0 million and $15.0 million of research and development benefits associated with a technology transfer agreement entered into with Silterra in Malaysia during 2000 and 1999, respectively. (See Note 3 of the Notes.) R&D expenses for the SAN Systems segment increased 6% to $27.2 million in 2000 from $25.7 million in 1999. The increase is primarily attributable to increased compensation expenses. As a percentage of revenues, R&D expenses were 28% in 2001, and 14% in 2000 and 1999, respectively, on a consolidated basis. R&D expenses as a percentage of revenues for the Semiconductor segment were 30% in 2001 and 15% in 2000 and 1999, respectively. R&D expenses as a percentage of revenues for the SAN Systems segment were 14% in 2001, 7% in 2000 and 9% in 1999. The increase in R&D expenses as a percentage of revenues for both segments is primarily a result of lower revenues for the periods presented and the effects of R&D spending changes as discussed above. Selling, general and administrative. SG&A expenses were flat at $307.3 million in 2001 as compared to $307.0 million in 2000 on a consolidated basis. SG&A expenses for the Semiconductor segment decreased 5% to $241.5 million in 2001 from $255.2 million in 2000. SG&A expenses for the SAN Systems segment increased 27% to $65.8 million in 2001 from $51.8 million in 2000. SG&A expenses on a consolidated basis in 2001 were impacted primarily by the following factors: - Continued SG&A expenses for the former C-Cube and AMI RAID business, which are part of the Semiconductor segment and included in our consolidated financial statements as of May 11, 2001 and August 31, 2001, respectively; and - An increase in compensation-related expenses for the SAN Systems segment due to an increase in average headcount during 2001. The above increases were offset in part by the positive effects of various cost reduction programs in both segments in 2001. These include, among other things, a reduction in workforce, elimination of 2001 annual merit increases and bonus payments, and shutdowns of operations during the year. (See Note 4 of the Notes.) SG&A expenses increased 19% to $307.0 million in 2000 as compared to $257.7 million in 1999. SG&A expenses for the Semiconductor segment increased 13% to $255.2 million in 2000 from $225.8 million in 1999. The increase was primarily attributable to sales commissions on increased revenues and increased compensation costs based on an increase in headcount in 2000. SG&A expenses for the SAN Systems segment increased 62% to $51.8 million in 2000 from $32.0 million in 1999. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily attributable to an increase in compensation costs based on an increase in headcount in 2000 and also an increase in commission related expenses for sales personnel based on the increased revenues during 2000. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A expenses increased to 17% in 2001 from 11% in 2000 and 12% in 1999 on a consolidated basis. SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenues for the Semiconductor segment were 15% in 2001, 11% in 2000 and 12% in 1999. SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenues for the SAN Systems segment were 31% in 2001, 13% in 2000 and 11% in 1999. The increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenues for both segments is primarily a result of lower revenues for the periods presented and the effects of SG&A spending changes as discussed above. Acquired in-process research and development. During 2001, we recorded a $96.6 million IPR&D charge associated with the acquisitions of C-Cube and the purchase of the RAID business of AMI. During 2000, we recorded a $77.4 million IPR&D charge associated with the acquisitions of ParaVoice, DataPath, Intraserver and the purchase of divisions of NeoMagic and Cacheware. There was no IPR&D charge recorded 33 in connection with the acquisition of Syntax. During 1999, we recorded a $4.6 million IPR&D charge associated with the acquisition of ZSP. See summary table below:
ACQUISITION DISCOUNT REVENUE PROJECTIONS COMPANY DATE IPR&D RATE BY PROJECT ROYALTY RATE - ------- ----------- ----- -------- ------------------- ------------ (AMOUNTS IN MILLIONS) C-Cube May 2001 $77.5 27.5% 2003 - Cable Modem -- 2004 - Set-Top Box 2005 - DVD 2006 - DVD-R RAID Division of AMI August 2001 19.1 20% 2006 -- Division of NeoMagic April 2000 6.4 30% 2004 30% Division of Cacheware April 2000 8.3 30% 2003 30% Intraserver May 2000 1.6 30% 2005 30% DataPath July 2000 54.2 20% 2004 - Read Channel 20% to Read 2006 - ADSL Channel and ADSL 2007 - Tuner 3% to Tuner ParaVoice October 2000 6.9 50% 2005 -- ZSP April 1999 4.6 25% 2003 25%
The above noted acquisitions were all accounted for as purchases and the estimated fair value of net assets or liabilities acquired and the results of operations were included in our consolidated financial statements as of the acquisition date through the end of the period. (See Note 2 of the Notes.) The amounts of IPR&D were determined by identifying research projects for which technological feasibility had not been established and no alternative future uses existed as of the respective acquisition dates. The value of the projects identified to be in progress was determined by estimating the future cash flows from the projects once commercially feasible, discounting the net cash flows back to their present value and then applying a percentage of completion to the calculated value. The net cash flows from the identified projects were based on estimates of revenues, cost of revenues, research and development costs, selling general and administrative costs and applicable income taxes for the projects. Total revenues for the projects are expected to extend through the dates noted in the above table by acquisition. These projections were based on estimates of market size and growth, expected trends in technology and the expected timing of new product introductions by our competitors and us. These estimates do not account for any potential synergies that may be realized as a result of the acquisition and are in line with industry averages and growth estimates. PERCENTAGE OF COMPLETION The percentage of completion for the projects for the purchases of the RAID business from AMI, C-Cube, ParaVoice, Cacheware and a division of Neomagic were determined based on research and development expenses incurred as of the acquisition dates for the projects as a percentage of total research and development expenses to bring the projects to technological feasibility. The percentage of completion for the projects for the purchases of Intraserver, DataPath and ZSP were determined using milestones representing management's estimate of effort, value added and degree of difficulty of the portion of the projects completed as of the acquisition dates, as compared to the remaining research and development to be completed to bring the projects to technological feasibility. The development process is grouped into three phases, with each phase containing between one and five milestones. The three phases are: - Researching the market requirements and the engineering architecture and feasibility studies; - Design and verification milestones; and - Prototyping and testing the product (both internal and customer testing). 34 DISCOUNT AND ROYALTY RATES The discount rate is used for the projects to account for the risks associated with the inherent uncertainties surrounding the successful development of the IPR&D, market acceptance of the technology, the useful life of the technology, the profitability level of such technology and the uncertainty of technological advances, which could impact the estimates described above. We applied a royalty rate by project by acquisition to operating income to attribute value for dependency on predecessor core technologies. See details in table above. PROJECT DESCRIPTIONS AND ESTIMATES OF COMPLETION BY ACQUISITION RAID business. On August 31, 2001, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with AMI. Under the agreement, we acquired certain tangible and intangible assets associated with AMI's RAID business. The acquisition will enhance product offerings and is included in the Semiconductor segment. As of the acquisition date, there were several projects in-process. The projects were for development of RAID technology applications. Development of these projects started in early 2000 and 2001. As of August 31, 2001, we estimated the projects were approximately 12% to 62% complete for the RAID projects and the cost to complete these projects was estimated at $4.6 million for 2001 and $2.4 million for 2002. As of December 31, 2001, the actual development timeline and costs are in line with estimates. C-Cube. On March 26, 2001, we signed a definitive merger agreement to acquire C-Cube Microsystems Inc. The acquisition is intended to enhance and accelerate our DVD product offerings in the Semiconductor segment. As of the acquisition date, there were various projects that were in-process. The majority of the projects identified consist of Digital Video Disc Player ("DVD"), DVD Recorder ("DVD-R"), Consumer Set-Top Box and Cable Modem. Development of these projects started in early 1999. As of May 11, 2001, we estimated the projects were approximately 84%, 62%, 61% and 69% complete for DVD, DVD-R, Consumer Set-Top Box and Cable Modem, respectively. As of the acquisition date, the cost to complete these projects was estimated at $22.7 million in 2001 and $9.1 million in 2002. As of December 31, 2001, the actual development timeline and costs are in line with estimates. ParaVoice. On October 23, 2000, we entered into an Asset Acquisition Agreement with ParaVoice. Under the agreement, we acquired certain tangible and intangible assets associated with ParaVoice's Voice over Internet Protocol ("VoIP") and Voice over DSL ("VoDSL") technology. The acquisition is intended to enhance product offerings in the Semiconductor segment. As of the acquisition date, there was one project in-process for the development of ParaVoice's VoIP products, which was started in late 1999. As of October 23, 2000, we estimated that the project was 23% complete. As of the acquisition date, the cost to complete the project was estimated at $6.3 million in 2001 and $7.3 million for 2002. As of December 31, 2001, the actual development timeline and costs are in line with estimates. DataPath. On July 14, 2000, we acquired DataPath, a privately held supplier of communications chips for broadband, data networking and wireless applications, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Merger. The acquisition of DataPath is expected to enhance our product offerings in the communications market in the Semiconductor segment. As of the acquisition date, there were various projects in-process. The majority of the projects identified consist of Read Channel, Asynchronous Digital Subscriber Line ("ADSL") and Tuner technologies. As of July 14, 2000, we estimated the projects were approximately 50%, 65% and 75% complete in aggregate for Read Channel, ADSL and Tuner Technologies, respectively. As of the acquisition date, the cost to complete the projects was estimated at $8.3 million and $2.8 million for ADSL and Tuner projects, respectively, through early 2002 and $32.8 million for Read Channel projects through 2004. As of December 31, 2001, the actual development timeline and costs are in line with estimates for continuing projects. Intraserver. On May 26, 2000, we acquired Intraserver pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Merger. The acquisition of Intraserver is expected to enhance our host adapter board and other product offerings in the storage infrastructure and communications markets in the Semiconductor segment. As of the acquisition date, there were various projects in-process. The majority of the projects identified are targeted to high-end data storage and communication devices, where input/output 35 functionality and speed is critical. As of May 26, 2000, we estimated the projects were 58% complete in aggregate (ranging from 20% to 95%). As of the acquisition date, the costs to complete the project were $0.5 million in 2000 and early 2001. As of December 31, 2001, the project was complete. Division of Cacheware. On April 27, 2000, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Cacheware. Under the agreement, we acquired certain tangible and intangible assets associated with Cacheware's storage area network business. ("SAN Business"). The acquisition was intended to provide a key technology to enhance our SAN solutions. The SAN Business is included in our SAN Systems segment. The project in-process as of their acquisition date was for development of a SAN appliance. Development of the SAN appliance was started in January 1999. As of April 27, 2000, we estimated that the project was 90% complete and that remaining costs to complete the project would be $0.4 million in 2000 and early 2001. As of December 31, 2001, the project is scheduled to be completed in the first quarter of 2002. Division of NeoMagic. On April 13, 2000, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with NeoMagic. Under the Agreement, we acquired certain tangible and intangible assets from NeoMagic, which includes NeoMagic's optical read-channel mixed-signal design team and RF intellectual property. The acquisition was intended to enhance and accelerate our set-top decoder product offerings in the Semiconductor segment. As of the acquisition date, one project was identified to be in-process. The project was for the development of a two-chip controller chipset. As of April 13, 2000, we estimated that the project was 68% complete. As of the acquisition date, the project costs were estimated at $3.0 million for the remainder of 2000 and $4.0 million in 2001. In the second quarter of 2001, the project was abandoned and remaining intangibles and goodwill were written off. See discussion under restructuring of operations and other non-recurring items. ZSP. On April 14, 1999, we acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of ZSP, a development stage semiconductor company involved in the design and marketing of programmable Digital Signal Processors ("DSPs") for use in wired and wireless communications. We acquired ZSP's in-process DSP research and development project in process that was targeted at the telecommunications market. The project was completed in 1999. Development of the above-noted technologies that have not yet been completed remains a significant risk to us due to the remaining effort to achieve technological feasibility, rapidly changing customer markets and significant competitive threats from numerous companies. Failure to bring the product to market in a timely manner could adversely affect our sales and profitability in the future. Additionally, the value of other intangible assets acquired may become impaired. Restructuring of operations and other non-recurring items. We recorded approximately $219.6 million in restructuring and non-recurring charges for the year ended December 31, 2001, consisting of $207.2 for restructuring of operations and $12.4 million for other non-recurring charges. RESTRUCTURING In September 2001, we announced the consolidation of U.S. manufacturing operations at Gresham, Oregon and the transfer of process research and development from Santa Clara, California to Gresham, Oregon. We also announced the closure of certain assembly activities in Fremont, California, which will be transferred offshore. In September 2001, we recorded a restructuring charge of $77 million for fixed asset write-downs due to impairment in the U.S., losses on termination of operating leases for equipment and facilities, severance for approximately 600 employees across multiple company activities and functions in the U.S., Europe, Japan and Asia Pacific as well as other exit costs. In December 2001, we recorded $14 million of additional fixed asset write-downs due to impairment for the Santa Clara facility. We reclassified $25 million, representing the fair market value of the assets identified above, from property, plant and equipment to other current assets during the year to reflect the intention to dispose of the assets within 12 months. In addition, in December 2001, approximately $4 million in exit costs for the closures of the Santa Clara facility was recorded relating primarily to labor and facilities charges. In April 2001, we announced the closure of our Colorado Springs fabrication facility ("the facility") in August 2001. In May 2001, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell the facility to a third party. As part 36 of the agreement, we agreed to purchase a minimum amount of production wafers and die from the facility for a period of 18 months following the close of the transaction. During the quarter ended June 30, 2001, we recorded an impairment charge of $71 million relating to the facility, of which approximately $35 million was recorded in cost of sales and $36 million was recorded in restructuring charges. The restructuring charges consisted of fixed asset write-downs due to impairment, losses on termination of operating leases for equipment, severance for approximately 413 manufacturing employees and other exit costs. On August 1, 2001, we announced the termination of the agreement to sell the facility. In September 2001, we recorded an additional restructuring charge of $55 million for fixed asset write-downs and other exit costs associated with the planned closure of the facility. The additional asset write-downs during the third quarter of 2001 were incurred to reflect the new value of the facility's assets if sold on a piecemeal basis rather than sold as a facility in continued use. In addition, equipment market values continued to decline in the third quarter of 2001. We reclassified approximately $62 million from property, plant and equipment to other current assets to reflect the intention to dispose of the facility within the next twelve months. The facility was closed in the fourth quarter of 2001. In December 2001, we recorded $1.5 million of additional fixed asset write-downs due to impairment for the Colorado Springs facility. In addition, approximately $3 million in exit costs for the closure of the Colorado Springs facilities were recorded relating primarily to labor and facilities charges. We recorded approximately $16 million in restructuring charges in the second quarter of 2001 primarily associated with the write-down of fixed assets due to impairment in the U.S., Japan and Hong Kong that will be disposed of, and severance charges for approximately 240 employees across multiple company activities and functions in the U.S., Europe and Asia Pacific. As a result of the continued decline in the equipment market during the third quarter of 2001, we recorded an additional charge of $0.5 million during the third quarter of 2001 to reflect the fair value of the equipment when sold. In December 2001, we recorded $0.3 million of additional fixed asset write-downs due to impairment in Japan. We plan to sell the assets and accordingly have reclassified $2 million from property, plant and equipment to assets held for sale to reflect the intention to sell the assets within the next 12 months. The fair value of assets determined to be impaired was the result of independent appraisals and the use of management estimates. Given that current market conditions for the sale of older fabrication facilities and related equipment may continue to deteriorate, there can be no assurance that we will realize its current net book value for the assets. We will reassess the realizability of the carrying value of these assets at the end of each quarter until the assets are sold or otherwise disposed of and additional adjustments may be necessary. On January 16, 2002, the Company announced a series of actions to reduce costs and tailor company expenses to current revenues. These actions include: restructuring the Company's manufacturing operations in Tsukuba, Japan; divesting the CDMA handset and DSL standard product business units and reducing the worldwide workforce by approximately 1,400 positions or 20 percent. As a result of the restructuring actions taken during 2002, we expect to reduce expenses by approximately $120 million in 2002. (See Note 13 of the Notes.) The following table sets forth our restructuring reserves as of December 31, 2001:
BALANCE AT RESTRUCTURING DECEMBER 30, EXPENSE UTILIZED 2001 ------------- --------- ------------ (IN THOUSANDS) Write-down of excess assets(a)................... $139,724 $(135,962) $ 3,762 Lease terminations and maintenance contracts(c)................................... 26,912 (16,217) 10,695 Facility closure and other exit costs (c)........ 24,242 (10,089) 14,153 Payments to employees for severance(b)........... 16,346 (15,622) 724 -------- --------- ------- Total.................................. $207,224 $(177,890) $29,334 ======== ========= =======
- --------------- (a) Amounts utilized in 2001 reflect a non-cash write-down of fixed assets in the U.S., Japan and Hong Kong due to impairment of $133.8 million and cash payments for machinery and equipment decommissioning costs of $2.2 million. The fixed asset write-downs were accounted for as a reduction of the assets and did 37 not result in a liability. The $3.8 million balance as of December 31, 2001 relates to machinery and equipment decommissioning costs in the U.S. (b) Amounts utilized represent cash payments related to the severance of approximately 1180 employees during the year ended December 31, 2001. The $0.7 million balance as of December 31, 2001 will be paid during the first six months of 2002. (c) Amounts utilized represent cash payments. OTHER NON-RECURRING ITEMS: We recorded approximately $12.4 million in other non-recurring charges during 2001 as follows: - $8.1 million in charges associated with the write-down of intangible assets due to impairment. The majority of the intangible assets were originally acquired in the purchase of a division of NeoMagic in the second quarter of 2000. - $4.3 million in charges primarily consisting of the write-down of an investment in a marketable equity security and related purchased intellectual property. 2000 AND 1999 We recorded restructuring of operations and other non-recurring net charges of $2.8 million in 2000. This was primarily related to the loss on an agreement entered into with a third party to outsource certain testing services previously performed by us at our Fremont, California facility. (See Note 4 of the Notes.) We recorded restructuring of operations and other non-recurring net benefits of $2.1 million in 1999. The net benefit reflected the combination of the following: - Approximately $2.9 million in restructuring charges and $5.5 million in merger-related expenses in connection with the merger with SEEQ on June 22, 1999 (see Note 2 of the Notes.) The restructuring charge was primarily comprised of write-downs of fixed assets that were duplicative to the combined company, charges for exit costs relating to non-cancelable building lease contracts and severance costs. The restructuring actions as outlined by the restructuring plan were completed by June 30, 2000, one year from the date the reserve was taken. - Approximately $10.5 million of 1998 restructuring reserve reversals associated with a change in management estimate. (See Note 4 of the Notes.) The amount consisted of the following: - $3.9 million of reserves for lease termination and non-cancelable purchase commitments primarily in the U.S. and Europe; - $3.7 million of excess severance reserves in the U.S., Japan, and Europe; - $2.0 million of reserves for manufacturing facility decommissioning costs and other exit costs primarily in the U.S. and Japan; and - $0.9 million of related cumulative translation adjustments. The change in management estimates of the reserve requirements stemmed primarily from the following factors: - A significant increase in the requirement for manufacturing capacity to meet expected sales growth, which resulted in retention of certain employees originally targeted for termination of employment and in reversal of the reserve for decommissioning costs as a result of retention of the U.S. and Japan operations facilities originally targeted for sale; and - Our ability to exit lease commitments and non-cancelable purchase commitments more favorably than originally anticipated in the U.S. and Europe. Amortization of intangibles. Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles increased to $188.3 million in 2001 from $72.6 million in 2000. The increase was primarily related to additional amortization of goodwill and other intangibles associated with the acquisitions of C-Cube and the RAID business from AMI. (See Note 2 of the Notes.) 38 Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles increased to $72.6 million in 2000 from $46.6 million in 1999. The increase was primarily related to additional amortization of goodwill associated with the acquisitions of Syntax, ParaVoice, DataPath, Intraserver and the acquisition of divisions of Cacheware and NeoMagic. In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB Statements Nos. 141 and 142 (SFAS 141 and SFAS 142), "Business Combinations" and "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." The statements were effective for our purchase of the RAID business from AMI, which closed on August 31, 2001. As a result of the application of SFAS 141 and 142, approximately $129 million of goodwill related to the AMI acquisition will not be amortized. See Note 2 of the Notes and the recent accounting pronouncements section below for further discussion. Amortization of non-cash deferred stock compensation. Amortization of non-cash deferred stock compensation of $104.6 million and $41.1 million in 2001 and 2000, respectively is due to non-cash deferred stock compensation recorded in connection with acquisitions after July 1, 2000. Acquisitions consisted of C-Cube and the RAID business from AMI in 2001 and DataPath and Syntax in 2000 for which deferred stock compensation and related amortization were recorded. We amortize deferred stock compensation ratably over the vesting period. At December 31, 2001, the deferred stock compensation that remained was $124.1 million and it is expected to be amortized over the next four years. (See Note 2 to the Notes.) Interest expense. Interest expense increased to $44.6 million in 2001 from $41.6 million in 2000. The increase was primarily attributable to increased debt outstanding due to the issuance of the $490.0 million of 4% Convertible Subordinated Notes (the "2001 Convertible Notes") in October 2001. (See Note 8 of the Notes.) Interest expense increased to $41.6 million in 2000 from $40.0 million in 1999. The increase was primarily attributable to increased debt outstanding due to the issuance of $500.0 million of 4% Convertible Subordinated Notes (the "2000 Convertible Notes") in February 2000. (See Note 8 of the Notes.) Interest income and other. Interest income and other decreased to $14.5 million in income in 2001 from $51.8 million in income in 2000. The decrease was primarily attributable to the following events in 2001, which were absent in 2000: - $15.2 million write-down of equity investments due to impairment considered to be other than temporary, net of a $3.8 million pre-tax gain associated with equity securities of a certain technology company that was acquired by another technology company (See Note 5 of the Notes); - $8.9 million of lower interest income due to lower average balances of interest-generating cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments and lower interest rates in 2001; - The write-off of debt issuance costs of approximately $3.5 million associated with the repayment of bank debt and a master lease and security agreement (See Notes 8 and 12 of the Notes); and - The cost of purchased option contracts, bank fees and other miscellaneous expenses. In addition, the $5.7 million pre-tax gain in 2000 discussed below was absent in 2001. Interest income and other increased to $51.8 million in income in 2000 from $17.6 million in income in 1999. The increase was primarily attributable to the following events in 2000, which were absent in 1999: - $5.7 million pre-tax gain on the sale of a U.S. facility in Fremont, California, and - $33.8 million of additional interest income due to higher average balances of interest-generating cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments and higher interest rates. The above-noted increase was offset in part by net losses on disposals of fixed assets, bank fees and other miscellaneous expenses during 2000. Gain on sale of equity securities. During 2001, we sold investments in certain marketable equity securities for $7.9 million in the open market, realizing a pre-tax gain of approximately $5.3 million. During 2000, we sold investments in certain marketable equity securities for $78.8 million in the open market, 39 realizing a pre-tax gain of approximately $73.3 million. In 2000, we also recognized a $6.8 million pre-tax gain associated with equity securities of a certain technology company that was acquired by another technology company. In 1999, we recognized a gain of $48.4 million on proceeds of $49.4 million from the sale of marketable securities. Provision for income taxes. In 2001, we recorded an income tax benefit of $39.2 million, which represents an effective tax rate of 4%. This rate differs from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to losses of our foreign subsidiaries, which are benefited at lower rates, net operating losses not currently benefited, and items related to acquisitions, which are not deductible for tax purposes. The rates for 2000 and 1999 were 38% and 29%, respectively. The rate for 2000 was higher than the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to non- deductible transaction costs related to acquisitions. The 1999 rate was lower than the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to the utilization of prior loss carryovers and other credits. Minority interest in net income of subsidiary. Minority interest in net income of subsidiary was not significant for the periods presented. The changes in minority interest were attributable to the composition of earnings and losses among certain of our international affiliates for each of the respective years. FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments decreased 11% to $1.01 billion in 2001 from $1.13 billion in 2000. Some of the major transactions that impacted cash and short-term investments during the year were as follows: - Lower cash flows from our continuing operations in 2001. - Payments for companies acquired in 2001. - In the third quarter of 2001, we amended the master lease and security agreements entered into in April 2001 and March 2000. Pursuant to the amendments, we participated as a debt holder in the lease transactions replacing some of the existing lessor banks. As of December 31, 2001, our debt contribution of $242 million was recorded as non-current assets and deposits on the balance sheet. We cash collateralized $54 million of the remaining debt and equity investments of the lessors. This was also recorded as non-current assets and deposits. The net impact was a reduction in cash on the balance sheet. (See Note 12 of the Notes.) - In October 2001, we issued $490 million of 4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due in 2006. (See Note 8 of the Notes.) Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments increased 71% to $1.13 billion in 2000 from $661.3 million in 1999. The increase was primarily a result of proceeds from the issuance of the 2000 Convertible Notes, net of repayment of the existing debt, and proceeds from our employee stock option and purchase plans, partially offset by capital expenditures and cash paid for the purchase of common stock under our repurchase program and the acquisition of non-public technology companies. (See Note 2 of the Notes.) The increase was also attributable to proceeds from the sale of investments in marketable equity securities in the open market. At December 31, 2000, short-term investments included $60.0 million of marketable equity securities. (See Note 5 of the Notes.) WORKING CAPITAL. Working capital decreased to $1.26 billion in 2001 from $1.45 billion in 2000. The decrease was primarily a result of the following factors: - Lower short-term investments resulting from (a) maturities and sales of securities available-for-sale, net of purchases and (b) marketable equity securities reclassified to long-term assets. (See Notes 5 and 8 of the Notes.) This decrease was offset in part by a higher cash balance at December 31, 2001 as compared to December 31, 2000. The higher cash balance is primarily due to the issuance of the 2001 Convertible Notes for $490 million, net of payments made for companies acquired in 2001 and the investment in non-current assets and deposits made under the amended master lease and security agreements (See Notes 2, 8 and 12 of the Notes.); - Lower accounts receivable due to decreased revenue and improved collections during the fourth quarter of 2001 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2000; 40 - Lower inventory levels due to lower production volumes and increases in reserves for excess and obsolete inventory, offset in part by lower turnover; and - Higher accrued and other liabilities resulting primarily from acquisition and restructuring-related accruals. The decrease in working capital was offset in part by higher prepaid expenses and other current assets due to a reclassification from property and equipment to current assets held for sale, lower accounts payable that reflect lower purchases during the fourth quarter of 2001 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2000, lower accrued salaries and wages due to the various cost reduction measures implemented in 2001 and lower income taxes payable due to the timing of tax payments and the tax benefit recorded during 2001. Working capital increased to $1.45 billion in 2000 from $813.0 million in 1999. The increase was primarily a result of the following factors: - Higher short-term investments resulting from purchases of debt and equity securities, net of sales and maturities and marketable equity securities reclassified from long-term assets. (See Notes 5 and 8 of the Notes); - Higher net accounts receivable due to increased revenue and the timing of shipments when comparing the fourth quarter of 2000 to the fourth quarter of 1999. Shipments during the fourth quarter of 1999 were more linear throughout the quarter whereas during the fourth quarter of 2000, shipments increased towards the end of the quarter; - Lower current portion of long-term obligations resulting from repayment of the Revolver. (See Note 8 of the Notes.); and - Higher inventory reflecting the combination of higher sales in 2000 as compared to 1999 and lower than expected sales during the fourth quarter of 2000. The increase in working capital was offset in part by higher accrued salaries, wages and benefits and other liabilities primarily due to increases in headcount mainly resulting from acquisitions of companies (See Note 2 of the Notes) as of December 31, 2000 as compared to December 31, 1999, higher income taxes payable due to the higher income tax rate applied in 2000 primarily due to the DataPath acquisition, and also by higher trade accounts payable compared to 1999. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS GENERATED FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES. During 2001, we generated $119.5 million of cash and cash equivalents from operating activities compared to $565.4 million generated in 2000. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to a net loss for the year ended 2001 (before depreciation and amortization, write-off of acquired in-process research and development, non-cash restructuring charges, amortization of non-cash deferred stock compensation and gains on stock investments), as compared to net income for the year ended 2000, accompanied by a decrease in working capital as discussed above. During 2000, we generated $565.4 million of cash and cash equivalents from operating activities compared to $443.8 million in 1999. The increase in net cash and cash equivalents provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to the following factors: - Higher net income (before depreciation and amortization, write-off of acquired in-process research and development, non-cash restructuring charges, amortization of non-cash deferred stock compensation and gains on stock investments); and - An increase in trade accounts payable, and accrued and other liabilities. The increase in trade accounts payable reflects higher purchases during the fourth quarter of 2000 as compared to the same period of 1999 and the timing of invoice receipt and payment. The increase in accrued and other liabilities was primarily attributable to higher income taxes payable due to a higher provision for income taxes for 2000, net of payment and higher deferred tax liabilities recorded in conjunction with the acquisition of DataPath. 41 The increase in cash from operations was offset in part by an increase in accounts receivable, inventories and prepaid expenses and other assets. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily a result of higher revenues in the fourth quarter of 2000 as compared to the same period of 1999 and the timing of payment receipt. Higher inventory reflects the combination of higher sales in 2000 as compared to 1999 and lower than expected sales during the fourth quarter of 2000. The increase in prepaid and other assets was primarily a result of higher deferred tax assets recorded as of December 31, 2000 as compared to the balance as of December 31, 1999 and increased capitalized software and intellectual property during 2000 as compared to 1999. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS USED IN INVESTING ACTIVITIES. Cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities was $146.8 million in 2001, compared to $753.3 million used in 2000. The primary investing activities during 2001 included the following: - Lower proceeds from sale of stock investments; - Higher net payments towards acquisition of companies; - New investment in other non-current assets and deposits; (See Note 12 of the Notes.) - Higher maturities and sales of debt and equity securities available for sale, net of purchases as compared to 2000; and - Lower purchases of property and equipment, net of retirements. Cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities was $753.3 million in 2000, compared to $472.0 million in 1999. The primary investing activities during 2000 included the following: - Higher purchases of debt and equity securities available-for-sale and others, net of maturities and sales; - Higher purchases of property and equipment; and - Acquisitions of non-public technology companies (See Note 2 of the Notes). We believe that maintaining technological leadership in the highly competitive worldwide semiconductor industry requires substantial ongoing investment in advanced manufacturing capacity. Net capital additions were $224.3 million in 2001 and $276.6 million in 2000. In order to maintain our position as a technological market leader, we expect the level of capital expenditures to be less than $200 million in 2002. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS PROVIDED BY FINANCING ACTIVITIES. Cash and cash equivalents provided by financing activities during 2001 was $554.3 million compared to $183.7 million in 2000. The increase is primarily attributable to higher proceeds from the issuance of the 2001 Convertible Notes, net of repayment of bank debt and debt issuance costs as compared to the proceeds of the 2000 Convertible Notes issued in 2000, net of repayment of the Revolver (See Note 8 of the Notes). In addition, no shares were repurchased in 2001, as compared to $49.3 million in repurchases in 2000. However, we generated lower cash proceeds from our employee stock option and purchase plans in 2001 as compared to the proceeds in 2000. Cash and cash equivalents provided by financing activities during 2000 totaled $183.7 million compared to $51.9 million in 1999. The increase was primarily attributable to proceeds from the 2000 Convertible Notes, net of repayment of the revolving credit facility (see Note 8 of the Notes) and higher proceeds from our employee stock option and purchase plans in 2000. The increase was offset in part by debt issuance costs associated with the 2000 Convertible Notes and cash paid for the repurchase of our common stock under the repurchase program in 2000. On October 30, 2001, we issued $490 million of 4% Convertible Subordinated Notes (the "2001 Convertible Notes") due in 2006. The 2001 Convertible Notes are subordinated to all existing and future senior debt, are convertible at the holder's option at any time after 60 days following issuance, into shares of our company's common stock at a conversion price of $26.339 per share. The 2001 Convertible Notes are redeemable at our option, in whole or in part, on at least 30 days notice at any time on or after November 6, 2004. Each holder of the 2001 Convertible Notes has the right to cause us to repurchase all of such holder's convertible notes at 100% of their principal amount plus accrued interest upon the occurrence of any fundamental change. Interest is payable semiannually. We paid approximately $13.5 million for debt issuance costs related to the 42 2001 Convertible Notes. The debt issuance costs are being amortized using the interest method. The net proceeds from the 2001 Convertible Notes were used to repay bank debt outstanding with a balance of approximately $200 million as of September 30, 2001 as described below. On September 28, 2001, we entered into a Credit Agreement with Bank of America, N.A. and Banc of America Securities LLC that provided for borrowings up to $200 million through September 26, 2002. We borrowed $200 million under the Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2001, with an interest rate based on LIBOR. The obligation was secured by inventory and accounts receivable. In October 2001, the borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement were repaid in full with the proceeds of the 2001 Convertible Notes and the Credit Agreement was terminated. On February 18, 2000, we issued $500 million of 4% Convertible Subordinated Notes (the "2000 Convertible Notes") due in 2005. The 2000 Convertible Notes are subordinated to all existing and future senior debt, are convertible at the holder's option at any time after 60 days following issuance, into shares of our company's common stock at a conversion price of $70.2845 per share. The 2000 Convertible Notes are redeemable at our option, in whole or in part, on at least 30 days notice at any time on or after February 20, 2003. Each holder of the 2000 Convertible Notes has the right to cause us to repurchase all of such holder's convertible notes at 100% of their principal amount plus accrued interest upon the occurrence of any fundamental change. Interest is payable semiannually. We paid approximately $15.3 million for debt issuance costs related to the 2000 Convertible Notes. The debt issuance costs are being amortized using the interest method. The net proceeds from the 2000 Convertible Notes were used to repay bank debt outstanding with a balance of approximately $380 million as of December 31, 1999 as described below. During March 1999, we issued $345 million of 4 1/4% Convertible Subordinated Notes (the "1999 Convertible Notes") due in 2004. The 1999 Convertible Notes are subordinated to all existing and future senior debt, are convertible at the holder's option at any time after 60 days following issuance, into shares of our company's common stock at a conversion price of $15.6765 per share. The 1999 Convertible Notes are redeemable at our option, in whole or in part, on at least 30 days notice at any time on or after March 20, 2002. Each holder of the convertible notes has the right to cause us to repurchase all of such holder's convertible notes at 100% of their principal amount plus accrued interest upon the occurrence of any fundamental change. Interest is payable semiannually. We paid approximately $9.5 million for debt issuance costs related to the 1999 Convertible Notes. The amount was capitalized in other assets and is being amortized over the life of the 1999 Convertible Notes using the interest method. The net proceeds of the 1999 Convertible Notes were used to repay existing debt obligations. The term fundamental change referred to above means the occurrence of any transaction or event such as an exchange offer, liquidation, tender offer, consolidation, merger, or combination. On August 5, 1998, we entered into a credit agreement with ABN AMRO Bank N.V. ("ABN AMRO"). The credit agreement was restated and superseded by the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of September 22, 1998 by and among us, LSI Logic Japan Semiconductor, Inc. ("JSI") and ABN AMRO, and was thereafter syndicated to a group of lenders determined by ABN AMRO and us ("Notes payable to banks"). The credit agreement consisted of two credit facilities: a $575 million senior unsecured reducing revolving credit facility ("Revolver"), and a $150 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility ("364-day Facility"). On April 21, 2000, the credit agreement was superseded by the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement by and among us, JSI, ABN AMRO and a group of lenders determined by ABN AMRO to terminate the yen sub-facility and modify certain covenant requirements. On March 14, 2001, the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement was amended to reduce the total revolving commitment by $165 million from $240 million to $75 million. On the effective date of this reduction, the revolving commitment of each lender was reduced accordingly. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement was terminated in August 2001. It is our policy to reinvest our earnings internally and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends to stockholders in the foreseeable future. 43 In order to remain competitive, we must continue to make significant investments in new facilities and capital equipment. We may seek additional equity or debt financing from time to time. We believe that our existing liquid resources and funds generated from operations, combined with funds from such financing and our ability to borrow funds, will be adequate to meet our operating and capital requirements and obligations through the foreseeable future. However, we cannot be certain that additional financing will be available on favorable terms. Moreover, any future equity or convertible debt financing will decrease the percentage of equity ownership of existing stockholders and may result in dilution, depending on the price at which the equity is sold or the debt is converted. Fluctuations in our stock price impact the prices of our outstanding convertible securities and the likelihood of the convertible securities being converted into cash or equity. If we are required to redeem any of the convertible securities for cash it may affect our liquidity position. As of December 31, 2001 we had operating leases financing certain wafer fabrication equipment (See Note 12 of the Notes). The debt related to operating leases is not reflected on the balance sheet. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB Statements Nos. 141 and 142 (SFAS 141 and SFAS 142), "Business Combinations" and "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS 141 replaces APB 16 and eliminates pooling-of-interests accounting prospectively. It also provides guidance on purchase accounting related to the recognition of intangible assets and accounting for negative goodwill. SFAS 142 changes the accounting for goodwill from an amortization method to an impairment-only approach. Under SFAS 142, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles will be tested annually and whenever events or circumstances occur indicating that they might be impaired. Goodwill is tested for impairment employing a two-step method. First the fair value of the reporting unit is compared to its carrying amount. If the fair value is less than the carrying amount, the impairment is measured as the excess of recorded goodwill over its implied fair value. Indefinite-lived intangibles are tested for impairment by comparing the carrying amount to the fair value. SFAS 141 and SFAS 142 are effective for all business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. Upon adoption of SFAS 142, amortization of goodwill recorded for business combinations consummated prior to July 1, 2001 will cease, and intangible assets acquired prior to July 1, 2001 that do not meet the criteria for recognition under SFAS 141 will be reclassified to goodwill. We adopted SFAS 142 on January 1, 2002, the beginning of fiscal 2002. As a result of the adoption of SFAS 142, amortization of goodwill and intangibles will be lower by approximately $112 million in 2002 as compared to 2001 and approximately $952 million of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles will no longer be amortized. We have completed the transitional goodwill impairment assessment in accordance with SFAS 142 and concluded that goodwill is not impaired as of January 1, 2002. In August 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 143 ("SFAS 143"), "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations." SFAS 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. The Statement applies to all entities. It applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development, and/or the normal operation of a long-lived asset, except for certain obligations of lessees. We adopted SFAS 143 on January 1, 2002 and it did not have a significant effect on our financial position and results of operations. In October 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed. We adopted SFAS 144 on January 1, 2002 and it did not have a significant effect on our financial position and results of operations. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK We have foreign subsidiaries that operate and sell our products in various global markets. We purchase a substantial portion of our raw materials and equipment from foreign suppliers and incur labor and other operating costs in foreign currencies, particularly at our Japanese manufacturing facilities. As a result, our 44 cash flow and earnings are exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We attempt to limit these exposures through operational strategies and financial market instruments. We use various hedge instruments, primarily forward contracts with maturities of six months or less and currency option contracts, to manage our exposure associated with net asset and liability positions and cash flows denominated in non-functional currencies. We did not purchase or hold derivative financial instruments for trading purposes as of December 31, 2001 and 2000. Interest rate sensitivity. We are subject to interest rate risk on our investment portfolio and outstanding debt. An interest rate move of 41 basis-points (10% of our weighted-average worldwide interest rate in 2001) affecting our floating-rate financial instruments as of December 31, 2001, including both debt obligations and investments, would not have a significant effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows over the next fiscal year, assuming that the investment balance remains consistent. In 2000, an interest rate move of 41 basis points (10% of our weighted-average worldwide interest rate in 2000) affecting our interest sensitive investments would also not have had a significant effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Foreign currency exchange risk. Based on our overall currency rate exposures at December 31, 2001, including derivative financial instruments and nonfunctional currency denominated receivables and payables, a near-term 10% appreciation or depreciation of the U.S. dollar would not have a significant effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows over the next fiscal year. In 2000 and 1999, a near-term 10% appreciation or depreciation of the U.S. dollar would also not have had a significant effect. 45 ITEM 8.

See Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. 49 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of business. LSI Logic Corporation ("the Company" or "LSI") is a leading supplier of high-performance integrated circuits and highly scalable enterprise storage systems. The Company is focused on the four markets of consumer products, communications, storage components and storage area network ("SAN") systems. Segment reporting. The Company operates in two reportable segments: the Semiconductor segment and the SAN Systems segment. In the Semiconductor segment, the Company uses advanced process technology and comprehensive design methodologies to design, develop, manufacture and market highly complex integrated circuits. These system-on-a-chip solutions include both application specific integrated circuits, commonly referred to as ASICs; application specific standard products in silicon, or ASSPs; as well as Redundant Array of Independent Disks ("RAID") host bus adapters and related products; and services. In the SAN Systems segment, the Company designs, manufactures, markets and supports high-performance, highly scaleable open storage area network systems, storage solutions and a complete line of RAID systems, subsystems and related software. (See Note 11 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements referred to hereafter as "Notes".) Basis of presentation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Assets and liabilities of certain foreign operations are translated to U.S. dollars at current rates of exchange and revenues and expenses are translated using weighted average rates. Accounts denominated in foreign currencies have been remeasured into functional currencies before translation into U.S. dollars. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included as a component of interest income and other. Gains and losses from foreign currency translation are included as a separate component of comprehensive income. On January 25, 2000, the Company announced a two-for-one stock split, which was declared by the Board of Directors as a 100% stock dividend payable to stockholders of record on February 4, 2000 as one new share of common stock for each share held on that date. The newly issued common stock shares were distributed on February 16, 2000. In the Notes, stockholders' equity has been restated to give retroactive recognition to the two-for-one common stock split announced on January 25, 2000 for all periods presented by reclassifying the par value of the newly issued shares arising from the split from additional paid-in capital to common stock. In addition, all references in the financial statements to number of shares, per share amounts, stock option data and market prices of the Company's common stock have been restated. 2001 ACQUISITIONS During 2001, the Company acquired C-Cube Microsystems Inc. ("C-Cube") and certain tangible and intangible assets associated with the RAID business of American Megatrends, Inc. ("AMI"). The acquisitions were accounted for as purchases and, accordingly, the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the results of operations were included in the Company's consolidated financial statements as of the effective date of each acquisition, through the end of the period. These transactions are summarized below. There were no significant differences between accounting policies of LSI and the companies acquired. (See Note 2 of the Notes.)

50 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 2000 AND 1999 ACQUISITIONS During 2000, the Company acquired a division of NeoMagic Corporation ("NeoMagic"), a division of Cacheware, Inc. ("Cacheware"), Intraserver Technology, Inc. ("Intraserver"), DataPath Systems, Inc. ("DataPath"), ParaVoice Technologies, Inc. ("ParaVoice") and Syntax Systems, Inc. ("Syntax"). The acquisitions were accounted for as purchases and, accordingly, the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the results of operations were included in the Company's consolidated financial statements as of the effective date of each acquisition, through the end of the period. These transactions are summarized below. There were no significant differences between the accounting policies of LSI and the companies acquired. (See Note 2 of the Notes.)

November 2000 58.8 1.4 million shares, -- 42.0 25.4 2.5 0.6 million options
In the second quarter of 2001, the NeoMagic research project was abandoned and the remaining intangibles and goodwill recorded in connection with the project were written off to other non-recurring items. (See Note 4 of the Notes.) On June 22, 1999, the Company and SEEQ Technology, Inc. ("SEEQ") were combined in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests. All financial information has been restated retroactively to reflect the combined operations of the Company and SEEQ as if the combination had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. (See Note 2 of the Notes.) Prior to the combination, SEEQ's fiscal year-end was the last Sunday in September of each year, whereas the Company operates on a year ending on December 31. SEEQ's financial information has been recast to conform to the Company's year-end. There were no significant differences between the accounting policies of the Company and SEEQ. Minority interest in subsidiary represents the minority stockholders' proportionate share of the net assets and the results of operations of the Company's majority-owned subsidiary. Sales of common stock of the Company's subsidiary and purchases of such shares may result in changes in the Company's proportionate share of the subsidiary's net assets. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Certain items previously reported in specific financial statement captions have been reclassified to conform to the 2001 presentation. Cash equivalents and short-term investments. All highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of 90 days or less are considered to be cash equivalents and are classified as held-to-maturity. Marketable short-term investments are generally classified and accounted for as available-for-sale. Management determines the appropriate classification of debt and equity securities at the time of purchase and reassesses the classification at each reporting date. Investments in debt and equity securities classified as held- 51 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) to-maturity are reported at amortized cost plus accrued interest, and securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses, net of related tax, recorded as a separate component of comprehensive income in stockholders' equity until realized (See Note 5 of the Notes). Gains and losses on securities sold are determined based on the specific identification method and are included in interest income and other. For all investment securities, unrealized losses that are other than temporary are recognized in net income. The Company does not hold these securities for speculative or trading purposes. Fair value disclosures of financial instruments. The estimated fair value of financial instruments is determined by the Company, using available market information and valuation methodologies considered to be appropriate. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a significant effect on the estimated fair value amounts. At December 31, 2001, the estimated fair values of the 2001, 2000 and 1999 Convertible Subordinated Notes were $444.7 million, $418.8 million and $387.2 million, respectively. At December 31, 2000, the estimated fair values of the 2000 and 1999 Convertible Subordinated Notes were $356.9 million and $388.6 million, respectively. Derivative instruments. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS Nos. 137 and 138 as of January 1, 2001. SFAS No. 133 requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. It further provides criteria for derivative instruments to be designated as fair value, cash flow and foreign currency hedges and establishes respective accounting standards for reporting changes in the fair value of the instruments. All of the Company's derivative instruments are recorded at their fair value in other current assets or other accrued liabilities. (See Note 6 of the Notes.) The transition adjustment upon adoption of SFAS No. 133 was not material. On the date a derivative contract is entered into, the Company designates its derivative as either a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability ("fair-value" hedge), as a hedge of the variability of cash flows to be received ("cash-flow" hedge), or as a foreign-currency hedge. Changes in the fair value of a derivative that is highly effective, and is designated and qualifies as a fair-value hedge, along with the loss or gain on the hedged asset or liability that is attributable to the hedged risk (including losses or gains on firm commitments), are recorded in current period earnings. Changes in the fair value of a derivative that is highly effective, and is designated and qualifies as a cash-flow hedge, are recorded in other comprehensive income, until earnings are affected by the variability of the cash flows. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are highly effective, and are designated and qualify as a foreign-currency hedge, are recorded in either current period earnings or other comprehensive income, depending on whether the hedge transaction is a fair-value hedge (e.g., a hedge of a firm commitment that is to be settled in a foreign currency) or a cash-flow hedge (e.g., a foreign-currency-denominated forecasted transaction). The Company's derivative instruments at December 31, 2001 and 2000 were designated as foreign currency fair-value hedges. The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. This process includes linking all derivatives that are designated as fair-value, cash-flow or foreign-currency hedges to specific assets and liabilities on the balance sheet or to specific firm commitments or forecasted transactions. The Company also assesses, both at the hedge's inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of the hedged items. If it were determined that a derivative is not highly effective as a hedge or that it has ceased to be a highly effective hedge, the Company would discontinue hedge accounting prospectively, as discussed below. 52 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) The Company would discontinue hedge accounting prospectively when (1) it is determined that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in the fair value or cash flows of a hedged item (including firm commitments or forecasted transactions); (2) the derivative expires or is sold, terminated or exercised; (3) the derivative is no longer designated as a hedge instrument, because it is unlikely that a forecasted transaction will occur; (4) the hedged firm commitment no longer meets the definition of a firm commitment; or (5) management determines that designation of the derivative as a hedge instrument is no longer appropriate. When hedge accounting is discontinued because it is determined that the derivative no longer qualifies as an effective fair-value hedge, the derivative will continue to be carried on the balance sheet at its fair value, and the hedged asset or liability will no longer be adjusted for changes in fair value. When hedge accounting is discontinued because the hedged item no longer meets the definition of a firm commitment, the derivative will continue to be carried on the balance sheet at its fair value, and any asset or liability that was recorded pursuant to recognition of the firm commitment will be removed from the balance sheet and recognized as a gain or loss in current-period earnings. When hedge accounting is discontinued because it is probable that a forecasted transaction will not occur, the derivative will continue to be carried on the balance sheet at its fair value, and gains and losses that were accumulated in other comprehensive income will be recognized immediately in earnings. In all other situations in which hedge accounting is discontinued, the derivative will be carried at its fair value on the balance sheet, with changes in its fair value recognized in current period earnings. Concentration of credit risk of financial instruments. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist of cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. Cash equivalents and short-term investments are maintained with high quality institutions, the composition and maturities of which are regularly monitored by management. A majority of the Company's trade receivables are derived from sales to large multinational computer, communication, networking and consumer electronics manufacturers, with the remainder distributed across other industries. As of December 31, 2001, two customers each accounted for 12% of consolidated trade receivables. No customers accounted for greater than or equal to 10% of trade receivables as of December 31, 2000. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to all other trade receivables are considered to be limited due to the quantity of customers comprising the Company's customer base and their dispersion across industries and geographies. One customer accounted for 18% of the Company's total consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2001, and another customer represented 12% and 11% of the Company's consolidated revenues for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and requires collateral as considered necessary. Write-offs of uncollectable amounts have not been significant. Inventories. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a first-in, first-out basis for raw materials and is computed on a currently adjusted standard basis (which approximates first-in, first-out) for work-in-process and finished goods. Inventory reserves are established when conditions indicate that the selling price could be less than cost due to physical deterioration, obsolescence, changes in price levels, or other causes. Reserves are established for excess inventory generally based on inventory levels in excess of 12 months judged demand for each specific product. Property and equipment. Property and equipment are recorded at cost and include interest on funds borrowed during the construction period. Depreciation and amortization are calculated based on the straight- 53 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) line method. Depreciation of equipment and buildings, in general, is computed using the assets' estimated useful lives as presented below: Buildings and improvements.................................. 20-40 years Equipment................................................... 3-6 years Furniture and fixtures...................................... 3-5 years
Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the shorter of the remaining term of the Company's facility leases or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. Depreciation for income tax purposes is computed using accelerated methods. Preproduction engineering costs. In April 1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the AICPA released SOP No. 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-up Activities." The SOP is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998 and requires companies to expense all costs incurred or unamortized in connection with start-up activities. Accordingly, the Company expensed the unamortized preproduction balance of $92 million, net of tax, associated with the Gresham manufacturing facility on January 1, 1999 and has presented it as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in accordance with the SOP No. 98-5. Goodwill and other intangibles. Goodwill and other intangibles acquired in connection with business acquisitions and the purchase of common stock from minority stockholders were approximately $1,661 million and $737 million, and related accumulated amortization was $341 million and $156 million at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. (See Note 2 of the Notes.) The acquisitions were accounted for as purchases, and the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired was allocated to existing technology, customer base, workforce in place, trademarks and residual goodwill, which are being amortized using the straight-line method over a weighted average life of two to six years. Goodwill and other intangibles are evaluated for impairment based on the related estimated undiscounted cash flows. The goodwill and identifiable intangible assets from the acquired RAID division of AMI has been accounted for in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 141, "Business Combinations" and Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." (See Note 2 of the Notes.) Other assets. Long-term investments in marketable and restricted shares of technology companies are included in other assets. The marketable investments are accounted for as available-for-sale and are reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses, net of related tax, recorded as a separate component of comprehensive income in stockholders' equity until realized in accordance with SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." (See Note 5 of the Notes.) Gains and losses on securities sold are based on the specific identification method and are included in gain on sale of equity securities. The investments in restricted and non-marketable shares are recorded at cost. For all investment securities, unrealized losses that are other than temporary are recognized as a component of interest income and other. Circumstances that indicate an other than temporary decline may include subsequent "down" financing rounds, decreases in quoted market price and declines in results of operations of the issuer. The Company does not hold these securities for speculative or trading purposes. Software. The Company capitalizes external costs related to the purchase and implementation of software projects used for business operations and engineering design activities. Capitalized software costs primarily include purchased software and external consulting fees. Capitalized software projects are amortized over the estimated useful lives of the projects, typically a two to five year period. The Company had $178 million and $137 million of capitalized software costs and $131 million and $72 million of accumulated amortization included in other assets at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Software amortization totaling $56 million, $41 million and $25 million was included in the Company's results of operations during 2001, 2000 and 1999. 54 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Self-insurance. The Company retains certain exposures in its insurance plan under self-insurance programs. Reserves for claims made and reserves for estimated claims incurred but not yet reported are recorded as current liabilities. Revenue recognition. Product revenue is primarily recognized upon shipment with the exception of standard products sold to distributors. Revenue from standard products sold to distributors is deferred until the distributor sells the product to a third party. Revenue from the licensing of the Company's design and manufacturing technology is recognized when the significant contractual obligations have been fulfilled. Royalty revenue is recognized upon the sale of products subject to royalties. The Company uses the percentage-of-completion method for recognizing revenues on fixed-fee design arrangements. All amounts billed to a customer related to shipping and handling are classified as revenue while all costs incurred by the Company for shipping and handling are classified as costs of goods sold. The provisions of Statement of Position 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition," as amended by Statement of Position 98-9 "Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions" are applied to all transactions involving the sale of software products and hardware transactions where the software is not incidental. For hardware transactions where software is incidental, the fee is not bifurcated and separate accounting guidance is not applied to the hardware and software elements. For hardware transactions where no software is involved the provisions of Staff Accounting Bulletin 101 "Revenue Recognition" are applied. Stock-based compensation. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation, including stock options granted and shares issued under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, using the intrinsic value method prescribed in APB No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations. Compensation cost for stock options, if any, is recognized ratably over the vesting period. The Company's policy is to grant options with an exercise price equal to the quoted market price of the Company's stock on the grant date. The Company provides additional pro forma disclosures as required under SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." (See Note 9 of the Notes.) The Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 44 ("FIN No. 44"), "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation -- an Interpretation of APB 25", on July 1, 2000. Amortization of non-cash deferred stock compensation of $105 million and $41 million in 2001 and 2000, respectively, is due to non-cash deferred stock compensation of $270 and $204 million recorded in connection with the acquisitions of the RAID business of AMI, C-Cube, Syntax and DataPath, which closed on August 31, 2001, May 11, 2001, November 29, 2000, and July 14, 2000, respectively (See Note 2 of the Notes). 55 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Earnings per share. Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted-average number of common and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be repurchased upon the exercise of stock options. A reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted per share amount computations is as follows:

- --------------- * Numerator + Denominator Options to purchase approximately 73,996,916 shares were outstanding at December 31, 2001 and were excluded from the computation of diluted shares because of their antidilutive effect on earnings per share as the Company incurred a net loss for the year. Options to purchase approximately 6,573,340 shares and 4,122,000 shares were outstanding at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted shares for the year ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, because the exercise prices of these options were greater than the average market price of common shares for the respective years. The exercise price of these options ranged from $0.01 to $72.25 and $26.38 to $72.25 at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Related party transactions. There were no significant related party transactions during the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, other than as listed in Notes 3 and 12 of the Notes. Comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is defined as a change in equity of a company during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances excluding transactions resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The primary difference between net income and comprehensive income, for the Company, arises from foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains or losses 56 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) on available-for-sale securities, net of applicable taxes. Comprehensive income is shown in the statement of stockholders' equity. As of December 31, 2001, the accumulated other comprehensive income consisted of $22 million of unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities, net of the related tax effect of $12 million, and $8 million loss from foreign currency translation adjustments, net of the related tax effect of $3 million. As of December 31, 2000, the accumulated other comprehensive income consisted of $31 million of unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities, net of the related tax effect of $17 million, and $23 million gain from foreign currency translation adjustments, net of the related tax effect of $12 million. As of December 31, 1999, the accumulated other comprehensive income consisted of $90 million of unrealized gain on available-for-sale securities, net of the related tax effect of $48 million, and $56 million gain from foreign currency translation adjustments, net of the related tax effect of $30 million. NOTE 2 -- BUSINESS COMBINATIONS Acquisitions accounted for as purchases. The estimated fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities and the results of operations for acquisitions accounted for as a purchase are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements as of the effective date of the purchase, through the end of the period. The total purchase price is allocated to the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on independent appraisals and management estimates. The fair value of common shares issued for acquisitions was determined using the average closing stock price for the period of two days before and after the date the number of LSI common shares to be issued was fixed. The purchase price includes direct acquisition costs consisting of investment banking, legal and accounting fees. There were no significant differences between the accounting policies of the Company and the acquired entities except as noted below. Deferred compensation. On July 1, 2000, FIN No. 44 was adopted by the Company as discussed in Note 1 of the Notes. In accordance with FIN No. 44, for all acquisitions that closed after it's adoption, the intrinsic value of the unvested options, restricted awards and warrants assumed as part of the acquisitions as of the closing date of the acquisitions was recorded as deferred stock compensation as a component of the purchase price to be amortized over the respective vesting periods of the options and awards. The Company calculated the value of restricted shares issued using the closing price of its common stock on the date of consummation of the purchase. The fair value of the options and warrants assumed was determined using the Black Scholes method. Deferred stock compensation is included as a component of stockholders' equity and is amortized over the vesting period of one to four years. 57 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) In-process research and development. During 2001, the Company recorded a $96.6 million IPR&D charge associated with the acquisitions of C-Cube and the purchase of the RAID business of AMI. During 2000, the Company recorded a $77.4 million IPR&D charge associated with the acquisitions of ParaVoice, DataPath, Intraserver and the purchase of divisions of NeoMagic and Cacheware. There was no IPR&D charge recorded in connection with the acquisition of Syntax. During 1999, the Company recorded a $4.6 million IPR&D charge associated with the acquisition of ZSP. See summary table below:

The amounts of IPR&D were determined by identifying research projects for which technological feasibility had not been established and no alternative future uses existed as of the respective acquisition dates. The value of the projects identified to be in progress was determined by estimating the future cash flows from the projects once commercially feasible, discounting the net cash flows back to their present value and then applying a percentage of completion to the calculated value. The net cash flows from the identified projects were based on estimates of revenues, cost of revenues, research and development costs, selling general and administrative costs and applicable income taxes for the projects. Total revenues for the projects are expected to extend through the dates noted in the table above by acquisition. These projections were based on estimates of market size and growth, expected trends in technology and the expected timing of new product introductions by our competitors and us. These estimates do not account for any potential synergies that may be realized as a result of the acquisition and are in line with industry averages and growth estimates. The percentage of completion for the projects was determined using one of the following methods: - Percentage of research and development expenses. Research and development expenses incurred as of the acquisition dates for the projects as a percentage of total research and development expenses to bring the projects to technological feasibility. - Project milestones. Milestones representing management's estimate of effort, value added and degree of difficulty of the portion of the projects completed as of the acquisition dates, as compared to the remaining research and development to be completed to bring the projects to technological feasibility. The development process is grouped into three phases, with each phase containing between one and five milestones. The three phases are: (i) researching the market requirements and the engineering architecture and feasibility studies; (ii) design and verification milestones; and (iii) prototyping and testing the product (both internal and customer testing). 58 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) A discount rate is used for the projects to account for the risks associated with the inherent uncertainties surrounding the successful development of the IPR&D, market acceptance of the technology, the useful life of the technology, the profitability level of such technology and the uncertainty of technological advances, which could impact the estimates described above. The Company applied a royalty rate by project by acquisition to operating income to attribute value for dependency on predecessor core technologies. Development of technologies that have not yet been completed remains a substantial risk to the Company due to various factors, including the remaining effort to achieve technological feasibility, rapidly changing customer markets and competitive threats from other companies. Failure to bring the product to market in a timely manner could adversely affect sales and profitability of the Company in the future. Additionally, the value of other intangible assets acquired may become impaired. Recent accounting pronouncements. In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB Statements Nos. 141 and 142 (SFAS 141 and SFAS 142), "Business Combinations" and "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS 141 replaces APB 16 and eliminates pooling-of-interests accounting prospectively. It also provides guidance on purchase accounting related to the recognition of intangible assets and accounting for negative goodwill. SFAS 142 changes the accounting for goodwill from an amortization method to an impairment-only approach. Under SFAS 142, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles will be tested annually and whenever events or circumstances occur indicating that they might be impaired. Goodwill is tested for impairment employing a two-step method. First the fair value of the reporting unit is compared to its carrying amount. If the fair value is less than the carrying amount, the impairment is measured as the excess of recorded goodwill over its implied fair value. Indefinite-lived intangibles are tested for impairment by comparing the carrying amount to the fair value. SFAS 141 and SFAS 142 are effective for all business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. Upon adoption of SFAS 142, amortization of goodwill recorded for business combinations consummated prior to July 1, 2001 will cease, and intangible assets acquired prior to July 1, 2001 that do not meet the criteria for recognition under SFAS 141 will be reclassified to goodwill. The Company will adopt SFAS 142 on January 1, 2002, the beginning of fiscal 2002, for all goodwill and intangibles that arose before July 1, 2001. As a result of the adoption of SFAS 142, amortization of goodwill and intangibles will be lower by approximately $112 million in 2002 as compared to 2001 and approximately $952 million of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles will no longer be amortized. The Company has completed the transitional goodwill impairment assessment in accordance with SFAS 142 and concluded that goodwill is not impaired as of January 1, 2002. 2001 Acquisition of the RAID business. On August 31, 2001, the Company finalized the Asset Purchase Agreement with American Megatrends, Inc. ("AMI"). Under the agreement, the Company acquired certain tangible and intangible assets associated with AMI's Redundant Array of Independent Disks, or RAID, business. The acquisition will enhance product offerings and be included in the Semiconductor segment. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. 59 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) The Company paid approximately $224 million in cash, which included direct acquisition costs of $2.5 million. The Company issued and will issue approximately 0.8 million restricted common shares to certain RAID business employees retained as part of the purchase transaction. The total purchase price was allocated as follows (in thousands): Fair value of net liabilities acquired...................... $ (1,440) In-process research and development......................... 19,100 Current technology.......................................... 74,100 Trademarks.................................................. 3,400 Excess of purchase price over net liabilities acquired...... 128,891 -------- -------- Total purchase price excluding deferred compensation........ 224,051 Deferred stock compensation................................. 16,400 -------- Total purchase price........................................ $240,451 ========
The calculated value of deferred stock compensation includes certain minimum guaranteed amounts. Deferred stock compensation will be amortized over approximately two years. In-process research and development. In connection with the purchase of the RAID business, the Company recorded a $19.1 million charge for several IPR&D projects during the third quarter of 2001. The projects were for development of RAID technology applications. The percentage of completion for the projects was determined based on the percentage of research and development expenses. The discount rate used was 20% for the projects. Development of RAID technology applications was started in early 2000 and 2001. As of August 31, 2001, the Company estimated that the projects were from 12% to 62% complete. Useful life of intangible assets. The amount allocated to current technology and trademarks is being amortized over their estimated useful lives of 4 and 5.5 years, respectively, using the straight-line method. The excess of purchase price over net assets acquired is not being amortized. The identification of intangibles and amortization periods were determined in accordance with the recent accounting pronouncements as described above. Pro forma statement of earnings information has not been presented because the effect of this acquisition was not material. ACQUISITION OF C-CUBE. On March 26, 2001, the Company signed a definitive merger agreement ("Merger Agreement") to acquire C-Cube Microsystems Inc. ("C-Cube"). In accordance with the Merger Agreement, the Company commenced an exchange offer whereby it offered 0.79 of a share of common stock for each outstanding share of C-Cube common stock. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the exchange offer was followed by a merger in which the Company acquired, at the same exchange ratio, the remaining shares of C-Cube common stock not previously acquired in the exchange offer. Upon completion of the merger, the Company assumed all options and warrants to purchase shares of C-Cube common stock and converted them into options and warrants to purchase shares of the Company's common stock. The merger was subject to customary closing conditions, including the tender for exchange of at least a majority of C-Cube's outstanding shares of common stock (including for purposes of the calculation of the majority of shares, certain outstanding options and warrants to purchase C-Cube shares). The acquisition was effective May 11, 2001. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. The Company issued approximately 40.2 million shares of its common stock, 10.6 million options and 0.8 million warrants in exchange for the outstanding ordinary shares, options and warrants of C-Cube, respectively. The fair value of common shares issued was $18.73 per share. The acquisition is intended to 60 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) enhance and accelerate the Company's digital video product offerings in the Semiconductor segment. The components of purchase price are as follows (in thousands): Fair value of common shares issued.......................... $752,557 Fair value of options assumed............................... 116,174 Fair value of warrants assumed.............................. 8,121 Direct acquisition costs.................................... 16,856 -------- Total purchase price........................................ $893,708 ========
The total purchase price was allocated as follows:

In-process research and development. In connection with the purchase of C-Cube, the Company recorded a $77.5 million charge for various IPR&D projects. The projects identified primarily consisted of digital video disc ("DVD"), recordable digital video ("DVD-R"), Consumer Set-Top Box and Cable Modem. The percentage of completion for the projects was determined based on the percentage of research and development expenses. The discount rate used was 27.5% for these projects. The development of these projects started in early 1999. As of May 11, 2001, the Company estimated the projects were approximately 84%, 62%, 61% and 69% complete for DVD, DVD-R, Consumer Set-Top Box and Cable Modem, respectively. Useful life of intangible assets. The amount allocated to current technology, trademarks, assembled workforce and excess of purchase price over net assets acquired is being amortized over their estimated weighted average useful life of six years using the straight-line method. Pro forma results. The following pro forma summary is provided for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the consolidated results of operations for future periods or that actually would have been realized had the Company and C-Cube been a consolidated entity during the periods presented. The summary combines the results of operations as if C-Cube had been acquired as of the beginning of the periods presented. The summary includes the impact of certain adjustments such as amortization of intangibles and non-cash deferred stock compensation. Additionally, the in-process research and development charge of $77.5 million discussed above has been excluded from the periods presented as it arose from the acquisition of C-Cube. The restructuring and other non-recurring charges of $219.6 million were included in the pro forma calculation as the charges did not relate to the acquisition of C-Cube.

In the second quarter of 2001, the NeoMagic research project was abandoned and the remaining intangibles and goodwill recorded in connection with the project were written off to other non-recurring items. (See Note 4 of the Notes.) 1999 Merger with SEEQ. On June 22, 1999, the Company and SEEQ were combined. SEEQ was formed in January 13, 1981 and engaged in the development, production and sale of state-of-the-art semiconductor data communications devices. The stock-for-stock transaction was approved by the shareholders of SEEQ. In December 1999, SEEQ was merged with and into LSI with LSI continuing as the surviving corporation in the merger. As a result of the merger, the separate existence of SEEQ ceased. Under the terms of the Agreement 62 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) and Plan of Reorganization and Merger, SEEQ's shareholders received 0.1518 of a share of the Company's common stock for each SEEQ share. Accordingly, the Company issued approximately 5 million shares of its common stock for all the outstanding shares of SEEQ common stock. Additionally, outstanding options to acquire SEEQ common stock as of the merger date were converted to options to acquire 0.8 million shares of the Company's common stock. The merger was accounted for as a pooling of interests. Accordingly, the Company's financial statements have been restated retroactively to include the financial results of SEEQ for all periods presented. Selected financial information for the combining entities included in the consolidated statements of operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 (unaudited), the interim period nearest the merger date is as follows:
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 -------------- (IN THOUSANDS) Net sales: LSI....................................................... $949,915 SEEQ...................................................... 14,714 -------- Combined.................................................. $964,629 ======== Net loss: LSI....................................................... $(75,148) SEEQ...................................................... (2,785) -------- Combined.................................................. $(77,933) ========
Adjustments to conform accounting policies of SEEQ to those of LSI were not significant to the combined financial results. There were no inter-company transactions between the two companies for the periods presented. Restructuring and merger-related expenses associated with the SEEQ merger. In connection with the merger with SEEQ on June 22, 1999, the Company recorded approximately $2.9 million in restructuring charges and $5.5 million in merger-related expenses, which included $0.5 million recorded by SEEQ in the first quarter of 1999. The merger expenses related primarily to investment banking and other professional fees directly attributable to the merger with SEEQ. The restructuring charge was comprised of $1.9 million in write-downs of fixed assets that were duplicative to the combined company, $0.5 million of exit costs relating to non-cancelable building lease contracts and a $0.5 million provision for severance costs related to the involuntary termination of certain employees. The restructuring actions as outlined by the restructuring plan were completed by June 30, 2000, one year from the date the reserve was taken. Approximately $0.5 million of severance was paid to three employees terminated during 1999. Acquisition of ZSP. On April 14, 1999, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of ZSP, a semiconductor company that designs and markets programmable digital signal processors. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. There were no significant differences between the accounting policies of the Company and ZSP. 63 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) The Company paid $7 million in cash, which included direct acquisition costs of $0.6 in addition to liabilities assumed of $4.3 million. The total purchase price of $11.3 million was allocated as follows (in thousands): Fair value of tangible net liabilities...................... $ (301) In-process research and development......................... 4,600 Current technology.......................................... 2,600 Excess of purchase price over net assets acquired........... 4,370 ------- $11,269 =======
Pro forma results of operations have not been presented as ZSP's operations were not significant to the Company's consolidated operations, and therefore, the pro forma results would not significantly differ from the Company's historical results. NOTE 3 -- LICENSE AGREEMENT In the second quarter of 1999, the Company and Silterra Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. (formerly known as Wafer Technology (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd.) ("Silterra") entered into a technology transfer agreement under which the Company grants licenses to Silterra with respect to certain of the Company's wafer fabrication technologies and provides associated manufacturing training and related services. In exchange, the Company receives cash consideration of $75 million and equity consideration over three years for which transfers and obligations of the Company are scheduled to occur. The equity consideration was valued at zero as of December 31, 2001. The Company transferred technology to Silterra valued at $20 million, $24 million and $15 million for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The amount was recorded as an offset to the Company's R&D expenses. In addition, the Company provided engineering training with a value of $2 million, $4 million and $2 million for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The amount was recorded as an offset to cost of revenues. NOTE 4 -- RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER NON-RECURRING ITEMS 2001 The Company recorded approximately $219.6 million in restructuring and non-recurring charges for the year ended December 31, 2001, consisting of $207.2 for restructuring of operations and $12.4 million for other non-recurring charges. Restructuring In September 2001, the Company announced the consolidation of U.S. manufacturing operations at Gresham, Oregon and the transfer of process research and development from Santa Clara, California to Gresham, Oregon. The Company also announced the closure of certain assembly activities in Fremont, California, which will be transferred offshore. In September 2001, the Company recorded a restructuring charge of $77 million for fixed asset write-downs due to impairment in the U.S., losses on operating leases for equipment and facilities, severance for approximately 600 employees across multiple company activities and functions in the U.S., Europe, Japan and Asia Pacific as well as other exit costs. In December 2001, the Company recorded $14 million of additional fixed asset write-downs due to impairment for the Santa Clara facility. The Company reclassified $25 million, representing the fair market value of the assets identified above, from property, plant and equipment to other current assets during the year to reflect the intention to dispose of the assets within 12 months. In addition, in December 2001, approximately $4 million in exit costs for the closure of the Santa Clara facility was recorded relating primarily to labor and facilities charges. 64 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) In April 2001, the Company announced the closure of the Company's Colorado Springs fabrication facility ("the facility") in August 2001. In May 2001, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell the facility to a third party. As part of the agreement, the Company agreed to purchase a minimum amount of production wafers and die from the facility for a period of 18 months following the close of the transaction. During the quarter ended June 30, 2001, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $71 million relating to the facility of which approximately $35 million was recorded in cost of sales and $36 million was recorded in restructuring charges. The restructuring charges consisted of fixed asset write-downs due to impairment, losses on operating leases for equipment, severance for approximately 413 manufacturing employees and other exit costs. On August 1, 2001, the Company announced the termination of the agreement to sell the facility. The facility was closed in the fourth quarter of 2001. In September 2001, the Company recorded an additional restructuring charge of $55 million for fixed asset write-downs and other exit costs associated with the planned closure of the facility. The additional asset write-downs during the third quarter of 2001 were incurred to reflect the lower value of the facility's assets if sold on a piecemeal basis rather than sold as a facility in continued use. In addition, equipment market values continued to decline in the third quarter of 2001. The Company reclassified approximately $62 million from property, plant and equipment to other current assets to reflect the intention to dispose of the facility within the next 12 months. In December 2001, the Company recorded $1.5 million of additional fixed asset write-downs due to impairment for the Colorado Springs facility. In addition, approximately $3 million in exit costs for the closures of Colorado Springs facilities were recorded relating primarily to labor and facilities charges. The Company recorded approximately $16 million in restructuring charges in the second quarter of 2001 primarily associated with the write-down of fixed assets due to impairment in the U.S., Japan and Hong Kong that will be disposed of and severance charges for approximately 240 employees across multiple company activities and functions in the U.S., Europe and Asia Pacific. As a result of the continued decline in the equipment market during the third quarter of 2001, the Company recorded an additional charge of $0.5 million during the third quarter of 2001 to reflect the fair value of the equipment when sold. In December 2001, the Company recorded $0.3 million of additional fixed asset write-downs due to impairment in Japan. The Company plans to sell the assets and accordingly has reclassified $2 million from property, plant and equipment to other current assets to reflect the intention to sell the assets within the next 12 months. The fair value of assets determined to be impaired was based on independent appraisals and management estimates. Given that current market conditions for the sale of older fabrication facilities and related equipment may continue to deteriorate, there can be no assurance that the Company will realize its current net book value for the assets. The Company will reassess the realizability of the carrying value of these assets at the end of each quarter until the assets are sold or otherwise disposed of and additional adjustments may be necessary. The following table sets forth our restructuring reserves as of December 31, 2001, which is included in other accrued liabilities on the balance sheet:
BALANCE AT RESTRUCTURING DECEMBER 31, EXPENSE UTILIZED 2001 ------------- --------- ------------ (IN THOUSANDS) Write-down of excess assets(a)................... $139,724 $(135,962) $ 3,762 Lease terminations and maintenance contracts(c)................................... 26,912 (16,217) 10,695 Facility closure and other exit costs(c)......... 24,242 (10,089) 14,153 Payments to employees for severance(b)........... 16,346 (15,622) 724 -------- --------- ------- Total.......................................... $207,224 $(177,890) $29,334 ======== ========= =======
65 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) - --------------- (a) Amounts utilized in 2001 reflect a non-cash write-down of fixed assets in the U.S., Japan and Hong Kong due to impairment of $133.8 million and cash payments for machinery and equipment decommissioning costs of $2.2 million. The fixed asset write-downs were accounted for as a reduction of the assets and did not result in a liability. The $3.8 million balance as of December 31, 2001 relates to machinery and equipment decommissioning costs in the U.S. (b) Amounts utilized represent cash payments related to the severance of approximately 1180 employees during the year ended December 31, 2001. The $0.7 million balance as of December 31, 2001 will be paid during the first six months of 2002. (c) Amounts utilized represent cash payments. Other Non-Recurring Charges: The Company recorded approximately $12.4 million in other non-recurring charges during 2001 as follows: - $8.1 million in charges associated with the write-down of intangible assets due to impairment. The majority of the intangible assets were originally acquired in the purchase of a division of NeoMagic in the second quarter of 2000. - $4.3 million in charges primarily consisting of the write-down of an investment in a marketable equity security and related purchased intellectual property. 2000 The Company recorded a restructuring of operations and other non-recurring net charges of $2.8 million in 2000. This was primarily related to the loss on an agreement entered into with a third party to outsource certain testing services previously performed by us at our Fremont, California facility. 1999 During the third quarter of 1999, the Company completed the activities underlying the restructuring plan, which was originally established in the third quarter of 1998. During the year ended December 31, 1999, the Company utilized $11.5 million of restructuring reserves, which consisted of severance payments of $7.9 million for 358 employees terminated during the year, $2.3 million for early lease contract terminations and to exit non-cancelable purchase commitments, $0.7 million of manufacturing facility decommissioning costs in Japan and other exit costs, and $0.6 million of currency translation adjustments. During 1999, the Company recorded approximately $2.9 million in restructuring charges and $5.5 million in merger-related expenses in connection with the merger with SEEQ on June 22, 1999 (see Note 2 of the Notes.) During 1999, the Company determined that $10.5 million of the restructuring reserve from 1998 would not be utilized because of a change in management's estimate of the reserve requirements. The amount consisted of the following: - $3.9 million of reserves for lease terminations and non-cancelable purchase commitments, primarily in the U.S. and Europe; - $3.7 million of excess severance reserves in the U.S., Japan and Europe; - $2.0 million of reserves for manufacturing facility decommissioning costs and other exit costs primarily in the U.S. and Japan; and - $0.9 million of related cumulative translation adjustments. 66 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) The change in management estimates of the reserve requirements stemmed primarily from the following factors: - A significant increase in the requirement for manufacturing capacity to meet expected sales growth, which resulted in retention of certain employees originally targeted for termination of employment and in reversal of the reserve for decommissioning costs as a result of retention of the U.S. and Japan operation facilities originally targeted for sale; and - The Company's ability to exit lease commitments and non-cancelable purchase commitments on more favorable terms than originally anticipated in the U.S. and Europe. Accordingly, the restructuring reserve reversal was included in the determination of income from operations for the year ended December 31, 1999. NOTE 5 -- CASH AND INVESTMENTS As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments included the following debt and equity securities:

Unrealized holding gains and losses of held-to-maturity securities and available-for-sale debt securities were not significant and accordingly the amortized cost of these securities approximated fair market value at December 31, 2001 and 2000. Securities classified as held-to-maturity were included in cash equivalents, and debt securities classified as available-for-sale were included in short-term investments as of December 31, 2001 and 2000. Contractual maturities of these securities were within one year as of December 31, 2001. Realized gains and losses for held-to-maturity securities and available-for-sale debt securities were not significant for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999. At December 31, 2001, the Company had investments in available-for-sale marketable equity securities with an aggregate carrying value of $54 million, of which all securities were included as a component of other long-term assets. At December 31, 2000, the Company had investments in available-for-sale marketable equity securities with an aggregate carrying value of $66 million, of which $60 million were classified as short- 67 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) term investments.

As of December 31, 2001, an unrealized gain of $22 million, net of the related tax effect of $12 million, on these equity securities was included in accumulated comprehensive income. As of December 31, 2000, an unrealized gain of $31 million, net of the related tax effect of $17 million, on these equity securities was included in accumulated comprehensive income. During 2001, the Company sold equity securities for $8 million in the open market, realizing a pre-tax gain of approximately $5 million. During 2000, the Company sold equity securities for $79 million in the open market, realizing a pre-tax gain of approximately $73 million.

During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company wrote down to estimated fair value equity investments in certain technology companies. The write down was for approximately $19 million. The decline in value of the investments was considered by management to be other than temporary. The Company also realized a pre-tax gain of approximately $4 million associated with equity securities of a certain technology company that was acquired by another technology company during the year. NOTE 6 -- DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS The Company has foreign subsidiaries that operate and sell the Company's products in various global markets. As a result, the Company is exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company utilizes various hedge instruments, primarily forward contracts and currency option contracts, to manage its exposure associated with firm intercompany and third-party transactions and net asset and liability positions denominated in non-functional currencies. The Company does not hold derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. FORWARD CONTRACTS Forward contracts are used to hedge certain cash flows denominated in non-functional currencies. Changes in the fair value of forward contracts due to changes in time value are excluded from the assessment of effectiveness and are recognized in other income and expense. At December 31, 2001, there was one forward contract outstanding, it was set to expire within one month and is designated as a foreign currency fair-value hedge in accordance with SFAS No. 133. For the year ended December 31, 2001, the change in time value of the forward contracts was not significant. The Company did not record any gains or losses due to hedge ineffectiveness during 2001. Forward exchange contracts are also used to hedge certain foreign currency-denominated assets or liabilities. These derivatives do not qualify for SFAS No. 133 hedge accounting treatment. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of these hedges are recorded immediately in earnings to offset the changes in fair value of the assets or liabilities being hedged. The related gains and losses included in other income and expense was not significant. OPTION CONTRACTS The Company also enters into purchased currency option contracts that are designated as foreign currency cash-flow hedges of third-party yen revenue exposures. Changes in the fair value of currency option contracts due to changes in time value are excluded from the assessment of effectiveness and are recognized in other income and expense. There were no option contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2001 and 2000. For the year ended December 31, 2001, the change in option time value was approximately $4 million. During the year ended December 31, 2001, an amount of $6 million was reclassified to revenue from other comprehensive 68 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) income as the forecasted transactions affected earnings. The Company did not record any gains or losses due to hedge ineffectiveness for the year ended December 31, 2001. NOTE 7 -- BALANCE SHEET DETAIL

The Company recorded, as a component of cost of revenues, additional excess inventory and related charges of $211 million for the year ended December 31, 2001. The charges were due to inventory production in anticipation of closing the Company's Colorado Springs manufacturing facility (see Note 4 of the Notes), a sudden and significant decrease in forecasted revenue, and significant underutilization related to a temporary idling of the Company's fabrication facilities due to reduced demand. The charges were calculated in accordance with the Company's policy, which is primarily based on inventory levels in excess of 12 month judged demand for each specific product. An allocation of interest costs incurred on borrowings during a period required to complete construction of the asset is capitalized as part of the historical cost of acquiring certain assets. Gross capitalized interest included in property and equipment totaled $29 million at December 31, 2001 and 2000. No interest was capitalized during 2001 and 2000. Accumulated amortization of capitalized interest was $17 million and $15 million at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. 69 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 8 -- DEBT

Stock split. On January 25, 2000, the Company announced a two-for-one stock split, which was declared by the Board of Directors as a 100% stock dividend payable to stockholders of record on February 4, 2000 as one new share of common stock for each share held on that date. The newly issued common stock shares were distributed on February 16, 2000. All references to stock option data of the Company's common 71 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) stock below have been restated retroactively to reflect the two-for-one common stock split as if it occurred for all periods presented. Stock repurchase program. There were no stock repurchases in 2001. On July 28, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a new stock repurchase program in which up to 5 million shares of the Company's common stock may be repurchased in the open market from time to time. Accordingly, the Company repurchased 1.5 million shares of its common stock in the open market for approximately $49.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2000. The transactions were recorded as reductions to common stock and additional paid-in capital. Stock option plans. On August 13, 1999, the Board of Directors approved the 1999 Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan ("1999 NSO Plan") under which 14 million shares were reserved for issuance. In August 2000, 12 million additional shares were approved by the Board of Directors for issuance, and in May 2001, 13 million additional shares were approved for issuance, for a total of 39 million shares reserved for issuance under the 1999 NSO Plan. Under the terms of the 1999 NSO Plan, the Company may grant stock options to its employees, excluding officers, with an exercise price that is no less than the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant. The term of each option is determined by the Board of Directors and is generally ten years. Options generally vest in annual increments of 25% per year commencing one year from the date of grant. The 1991 Equity Incentive Plan enables the Company to grant stock options to its employees and consultants. Stock options may be granted with an exercise price no less than the fair value of the stock on the date of grant. The term of each option is determined by the Board of Directors and is generally ten years. Options generally vest in annual increments of 25% per year commencing one year from the date of grant. A total of 77.5 million shares have been reserved for issuance under this plan, including 5 million shares approved by the stockholders in May 2001 and 10 million approved by stockholders in May 2000. The Company's 1982 Incentive Stock Option Plan is administered by the Board of Directors. Terms of that plan required that the exercise price of options be no less than the fair value at the date of grant and that options be granted only to employees and consultants of the Company. Generally, options granted vested in annual increments of 25% per year commencing one year from the date of grant and had a term of ten years. During 1992, the 1982 Incentive Stock Option Plan expired by its terms. Accordingly, no further options may be granted thereunder. None of the options previously granted under this plan remained outstanding at December 31, 2001. In May 1995, the stockholders approved the 1995 Director Option Plan, which replaced the 1986 Directors' Stock Option Plan, and reserved 1 million shares for issuance thereunder. Terms of the 1995 Director Option Plan provide for an initial option grant to new directors and subsequent automatic option grants each year thereafter. The option grants generally have a ten-year term and vest in equal increments over four years. The exercise price of options granted is the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant. On May 7, 1999, the stockholders approved an amendment to the 1995 Director Option Plan to increase the annual grant of options to each non-employee director to 25,000 shares, which fully vest six months after grant. None of the options previously granted under the 1986 Directors' Stock Option Plan remained outstanding at December 31, 2001. In connection with the acquisition of C-Cube (see Note 2 of the Notes), each outstanding stock option under C-Cube's Stock Option Plan was converted to an option of the Company's common stock at a ratio of 0.79. As a result, outstanding options to purchase 10,616,640 shares and warrants to purchase 750,100 shares were assumed. No further options may be granted under the C-Cube Stock Option Plan. In connection with the acquisition of Syntax Systems, Inc. (see Note 2 of the Notes), each outstanding stock option under Syntax's Stock Option Plan was converted to an option of the Company's common stock at a ratio of 0.1896. As a result, outstanding options to purchase 611,241 shares were assumed. No further options may be granted under the Syntax Stock Option Plan. 72 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) In connection with the acquisition of DataPath Systems, Inc. (see Note 2 of the Notes), each outstanding stock option under DataPath's Stock Option Plan was converted to an option of the Company's common stock at a ratio of 0.4269. As a result, outstanding options to purchase 1,560,823 shares were assumed. No further options may be granted under the DataPath Stock Option Plan. In connection with the acquisition of Intraserver Technology, Inc. (see Note 2 of the Notes), each outstanding stock option under Intraserver's Stock Option Plan was converted to an option of the Company's common stock at a ratio of 2.2074. As a result, outstanding options to purchase 154,709 shares were assumed. No further options may be granted under the Intraserver Stock Option Plan. In connection with the merger with SEEQ (see Note 2 of the Notes), each outstanding stock option under SEEQ's Stock Option Plan was converted to an option of the Company's common stock at a ratio of 0.1518. As a result, outstanding options to purchase 760,878 shares were assumed. No further options may be granted under the SEEQ Stock Option Plan. All tables presented below were retroactively restated as if the merger occurred at the beginning of the periods presented. At December 31, 2001, remaining shares available for grant under all stock option plans were approximately 33,130,000. The following table summarizes the Company's stock option share activity and related weighted average exercise price within each category for each of the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 (share amounts in thousands):

All options were granted at an exercise price equal to the market value of the Company's common stock at the date of grant, with the exception of the options assumed as part of the acquisition of C-Cube on May 11, 73 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 2001, Syntax on November 29, 2000, DataPath on July 14, 2000, Intraserver on May 26, 2000 and the merger with SEEQ on June 22, 1999. (See Note 2 of the Notes.) The weighted average estimated grant date fair value, as defined by SFAS No. 123, of options granted during 2001, 2000 and 1999 was $15.44, $30.86 and $14.35 per option, respectively. The estimated grant date fair value was calculated using the Black-Scholes model. The Black-Scholes model, as well as other currently accepted option valuation models, was developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable options without vesting restrictions, which significantly differ from the Company's stock option awards. These models also require highly subjective assumptions, including future stock price volatility and expected time until exercise, which greatly affect the calculated grant date fair value. The following weighted average assumptions were included in the estimated grant date fair value calculations for the Company's stock option awards:
2001 2000 1999 ------ ------ ----- Expected life (years)....................................... 3.79 3.85 4.76 Risk-free interest rate..................................... 4.70% 6.28% 5.55% Volatility.................................................. 110.98% 108.15% 60.46% Dividend yield.............................................. -- -- --
Stock purchase plan. Since 1983, the Company has offered an Employee Stock Purchase Plan under which rights are granted to all employees to purchase shares of common stock at 85% of the lesser of the fair market value of such shares at the beginning of an offering period or the end of each six-month segment within such an offering period. Sales under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan in 2001, 2000 and 1999 were approximately 2.9 million, 5.2 million and 4.3 million shares of common stock at an average price of $16.39, $6.30 and $5.20 per share, respectively. In 1997, the stockholders approved an amendment to the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan to increase the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance on the first day of each fiscal year, beginning fiscal 1998, by 1.15% of the shares of the Company's common stock issued and outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year, less the number of shares available for future option grants under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan on the last day of the preceding fiscal year. An additional 2.4 million, 2.5 million and 1.5 million shares were reserved for this Plan in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. In addition, during 2001, the Company's stockholders approved an amendment to the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance by 10 million shares. The weighted average estimated grant date fair value, as defined by SFAS No. 123, of rights to purchase stock under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan granted in 2001, 2000 and 1999 was $6.90, $13.83 and $8.30 per share, respectively. The estimated grant date fair value was calculated using the Black-Scholes model. The following weighted average assumptions were included in the estimated grant date fair value calculations for rights to purchase stock under the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan:
2001 2000 1999 ----- ----- ----- Expected life (years)....................................... 0.50 0.63 0.75 Risk-free interest rate..................................... 3.03% 6.07% 4.95% Volatility.................................................. 82.34% 98.82% 60.30% Dividend yield.............................................. -- -- --
Stock purchase rights. In November 1988, the Company implemented a plan to protect stockholders' rights in the event of a proposed takeover of the Company. The plan was amended and restated in November 1998. Under the plan, each share of the Company's outstanding common stock carries one Preferred Share Purchase Right. Each Preferred Share Purchase Right entitles the holder, under certain circumstances, to purchase one-thousandth of a share of Preferred Stock of the Company or its acquirer at a discounted price. The Preferred Share Purchase Rights are redeemable by the Company and will expire in 2008. 74 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Pro forma net (loss)/income and proforma net (loss)/income per share. Had the Company recorded compensation costs based on the estimated grant date fair value, as defined by SFAS No. 123, for awards granted under its stock option plans and stock purchase plan, the Company's net income and earnings per share would have been adjusted to the pro forma amounts below for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999.
2001 2000 1999 -------------- ----------- ---------- (IN THOUSANDS EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS) Pro forma net (loss)/income Basic............................................. $(1,220,551) $140,964 $10,679 Diluted........................................... $(1,220,551) $150,055 $10,679 Pro forma net (loss)/income per share Basic............................................. $ (3.49) $ 0.45 $ 0.04 Diluted........................................... $ (3.49) $ 0.43 $ 0.04
For the year ended December 31, 2001, common stock equivalents of approximately 95.8 million shares were excluded from the computation of pro forma diluted earnings per share as a result of their antidilutive effect on pro forma earnings per share. For the year ended December 31, 2000, common stock equivalents of approximately 6.2 million shares and interest expense of $11 million, net of taxes, associated with the 2000 Convertible Subordinated Notes were excluded from the computation of pro forma diluted earnings per share as a result of their antidilutive effect on pro forma earnings per share. For the year ended December 31, 1999, common equivalents of approximately 17.6 million shares and interest expense of $8 million, net of taxes, associated with the 1999 Convertible Subordinated Notes were excluded from the computation of pro forma diluted earnings per share as a result of their antidilutive effect on pro forma earnings per share. The pro forma effect on net income and net income per share for 2001, 2000 and 1999 is not representative of the pro forma effect on net income in future years because it does not take into consideration pro forma compensation expense related to grants made prior to 1995. See Note 8 of the Notes for a discussion of the 2001, 2000 and 1999 Convertible Notes. NOTE 10 -- INCOME TAXES The provision for taxes consisted of the following:

75 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Undistributed earnings of the Company's foreign subsidiaries aggregate approximately $265 million at December 31, 2001, and are indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations or will be remitted substantially free of additional tax. No material provision has been made for taxes that might be payable upon remittance of such earnings, nor is it practicable to determine the amount of this liability. The domestic and foreign components of income before income taxes and minority interest were as follows:

The deferred tax assets valuation allowance at December 31, 2001 and 2000 is attributed to U.S. federal, state and foreign deferred tax assets, which result primarily from restructuring and other one-time charges, and net operating loss carryovers. Management believes that the realization of deferred tax assets was not assured in the years presented other than to the extent of estimated taxable income for the carryover period. At December 31, 2001, the Company had federal and state net operating loss carryovers of approximately $242 million and $77 million, respectively, which will expire beginning in 2004 through 2022. Approximately $39 million of the federal net operating loss carryover and $12 million of the state net operating loss carryover relate to recent acquisitions and are subject to certain limitations under IRC sec.382. The Company had tax credits of approximately $25 million, which will expire beginning in 2004. 76 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Differences between the Company's effective tax rate and the federal statutory rate were as follows:

The Company paid $22 million, $28 million and $14 million for income taxes in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The IRS is currently auditing the Company's federal income tax returns for fiscal years 1995 through 1996. Final proposed adjustments have not been received for these years. Management believes the ultimate outcome of the IRS audits will not have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. NOTE 11 -- SEGMENT REPORTING The Company operates in two reportable segments: the Semiconductor segment and the SAN Systems segment. In the Semiconductor segment, the Company uses advanced process technology and comprehensive design methodologies to design, develop, manufacture and market highly complex integrated circuits. These system-on-a-chip solutions include both application specific integrated circuits, commonly referred to as ASICs; application specific standard products in silicon, or ASSPs; as well as RAID host bus adapters and related products; and services. In the SAN Systems segment, the Company designs, manufactures, markets and supports high-performance, highly scaleable open storage area network systems, storage solutions and a complete line of RAID systems, subsystems and related software. There were no significant inter-segment revenues for the periods presented below. 77 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Information about profit or loss and assets. The following is a summary of operations by segment for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999:

Intersegment revenues for the periods presented above were not significant. Restructuring of operations and other non-recurring items were included in both segments. One customer represented 18% of the Company's total consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2001, and another customer represented 12% and 11% of the Company's consolidated revenues each of the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. In the Semiconductor segment, one customer represented 21% of total Semiconductor revenues for the year ended December 31, 2001. No customer represented 10% or more of the total revenue in the Semiconductor segment for the year ended December 31, 2000. For the year ended December 31, 1999, one customer represented 10% of the total Semiconductor revenues. In the SAN Systems segment, there were two customers with revenues representing 21% each, and one customer with revenues representing 13% of total SAN Systems revenues for the year ended December 31, 2001. During 2000, there were three customers with revenues representing 31%, 17% and 13% of total SAN Systems revenues.

United States revenues include export sales. Long-lived assets consist of net property and equipment, goodwill, capitalized software and other intangibles, and other long-term assets excluding long-term deferred tax assets. NOTE 12 -- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company uses operating leases to finance certain equipment used in its wafer fabrication facilities. As of December 31, 2001 the Company had two operating leases, which are commonly referred to as synthetic leases. A synthetic lease represents a form of off-balance sheet financing under which an unrelated third party funds up to 100% of the costs of acquisition and installation of the property. In March 2000, the Company entered into a master lease and security agreement with ABN AMRO Bank and two other banks acting as the Lessor and several other banks acting as Participants for up to $250 million for certain wafer fabrication equipment. Each lease supplement pursuant to the transaction will have a lease term of three years with two consecutive one-year renewal options. The Company may, at the end of any lease term, return, or purchase at a stated amount all the equipment. As of December 31, 2001, the Company had fully drawn against the agreement. In April 2001, the Company entered into a master lease and security agreement with a group of banks for up to $230 million for certain wafer fabrication equipment. The Lessor under this lease is an unrelated trust administered and managed by Wells Fargo Bank Northwest. Each lease supplement pursuant to the transaction will have a lease term of five years with two consecutive one-year renewal options. The Company may, at the end of any lease term, return, or purchase at a stated amount all the equipment. As of December 31, 2001, the Company had drawn down a total of $152 million under the agreement. The agreement was amended in fourth quarter of 2001 to reduce the total availability to $180 million. 79 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) In the third quarter of 2001, the Company amended the master lease and security agreements entered into in April 2001 and March 2000 as described above. As of December 31, 2001, there was $296 million outstanding under these two leases. Pursuant to the amendments, the Company now participates in these leases as a debt holder, replacing some of the existing banks. As of December 31, 2001, the Company's debt contribution of $242 million and cash collateral of $54 million were recorded as non-current assets. The Lessors have access to the cash collateral only in the event of a default by the Company. Per the amendments, the Company is required to maintain a minimum cash balance of $350 million. The Company was in compliance with this requirement as of December 31, 2001. No officer or employee of the Company has any financial interest with regards to these leasing arrangements or with the trust used in the April 2001 lease. The minimum lease payments under the two lease agreements, excluding option periods, are $3 million each for the years 2002 and 2003, and $0.9 million each in the years 2004 and 2005. These payments reflect the amendments and as such, exclude any payments on the Company's debt participation. The Company leases the majority of its facilities and certain equipment under non-cancelable operating leases, which expire through 2011. The facilities lease agreements typically provide for base rental rates that are increased at various times during the terms of the lease and for renewal options at the fair market rental value. Future minimum payments under these operating lease agreements are $34 million, $28 million, $21 million, $15 million, $9 million and $25 million for the years ending December 31, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006 and thereafter, respectively. Rental expense under all operating leases was $96 million, $64 million and $58 million for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. In late 1995, a lawsuit was filed by certain former shareholders of our Canadian subsidiary ("LSI Canada") petitioner in a proceeding in the Court of Queens Bench of Alberta, Judicial District of Calgary in which the question of LSI Canada's value at September 7, 1995 is to be determined. At present, parties representing approximately 580,000 shares are contesting the value of $4.00 (Canadian) that was paid to the other former shareholders of LSI Canada at the time all the shares of LSI Canada not then owned by the Company were acquired by the Company. Following a hearing held in March 2001, the Court dismissed the motion of the former shareholders that challenged the proprietary of the fair value proceedings initiated by LSI Canada and the jurisdiction of the Court to adjudicate the matter. In addition, the Court ruled that the portions of the application of the former shareholders to initiate a claim based upon allegations that our actions and certain named (former) directors and a (former) officer of LSI Canada were oppressive of the rights of minority shareholders of LSI Canada were to be struck and the balance of the claims were stayed. The Court also directed all of the litigants to recommence preparation for trial in the fair value proceeding and advised the litigants of the Court's intention to schedule a date for trial of that matter as soon as practicable. While we cannot give any assurances regarding the resolution of these matters, we believe that the final outcome will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition. No assurance can be given, however, that these matters will be resolved without our becoming obligated to make payments or to pay other costs to the opposing parties, with the potential for having an adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. 80 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) In February 1999, a lawsuit alleging patent infringement was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona by the Lemelson Medical, Education & Research Foundation, Limited Partnership against 88 electronics industry companies, including LSI Logic. The case number is CIV990377PHXRGS. The patents involved in this lawsuit are alleged to relate to semiconductor manufacturing and computer imaging, including the use of bar coding for automatic identification of articles. In September 1999, the Company filed an answer denying infringement, raising affirmative defenses and asserting a counterclaim for declaratory judgment of non-infringement, invalidity and unenforceability of Lemelson's patents. In December 2001, the court held a hearing on Cypress Semiconductor's and plaintiff's cross-motions for summary judgment with respect to the 4,390,586 patent. In February 2002, the court denied Cypress Semiconductor's motion for summary judgment. The court also granted the plaintiff's cross motion in part with respect to Cypress Semiconductor and denied the cross-motion with respect to all other defendants. These activities are ongoing, and as yet, no trial date has been set. While the Company cannot make any assurance regarding the eventual resolution of this matter, the Company does not believe it will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition. U.S. Philips Corporation, a subsidiary of Royal Philips Electronics of Netherlands, filed suits on October 17, 2001 in the U.S. District Court in New York against eight companies, including us, for allegedly infringing and inducing others to infringe Philips U.S. Patent Number 4,689,740. This patent is directed to devices and methods used with the Inter-Integrated Circuit Bus. While we cannot make any assurance regarding the eventual resolution of this matter, we do not believe it will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition. The Company is a party to other litigation matters and claims, which are normal in the course of its operations. While the results of such litigations and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the final outcome of such matters is not expected to have a significant adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. No assurance can be given, however, that these matters will be resolved without the Company becoming obligated to make payments or to pay other costs to the opposing parties, with the potential for having an adverse effect on the Company's financial position or its results of operations. NOTE 13 -- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On January 16, 2002, the Company announced a series of actions to reduce costs and align company expenses to current revenues.

In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 14(a)(2) on page 85 present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. - -s- PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP San Jose, California January 23, 2002 82 SUPPLEMENTARY FINANCIAL DATA INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

EX-3.2 3 f79795ex3-2.txt EXHIBIT 3.2 Exhibit 3.2 BY-LAWS OF LSI LOGIC CORPORATION ARTICLE I CORPORATE OFFICES 1.1 REGISTERED OFFICE The registered office of the corporation shall be in the City of Wilmington, County of New Castle, State of Delaware. The name of the registered agent of the corporation at such location is The Corporation Trust Company. 1.2 OTHER OFFICES The board of directors may at any time establish other offices at any place or places where the corporation is qualified to do business. ARTICLE II MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS 2.1 PLACE OF MEETINGS Meetings of stockholders shall be held at any place, within or outside the State of Delaware, designated by the board of directors. In the absence of any such designation, stockholders' meetings shall be held at the registered office of the corporation. 2.2 ANNUAL MEETING The annual meeting of stockholders shall be held each year on a date and at a time designated by the board of directors. At the meeting, directors shall be elected and any other proper business may be transacted. 2.3 SPECIAL MEETING A special meeting of the stockholders may be called at any time only by the board of directors, by the chairman of the board, by the president or by the chief executive officer. If a special meeting is called by any person or persons other than the board of directors, the request shall be in writing, specifying the time of such meeting and the general nature of the business proposed to be transacted, and shall be delivered personally or sent by registered mail or by telegraphic or other facsimile transmission to the secretary of the corporation. No business may be transacted at such special meeting otherwise than specified in such notice. The secretary, upon receiving the request, shall cause notice to be given to the stockholders entitled to vote, in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.4 and 2.5, and that a meeting will be held at the time requested by the person or persons who called the meeting, not less than thirty-five (35) nor more than sixty (60) days after the receipt of the request. Nothing contained in this second paragraph of Section 2.3 shall be construed as limiting, fixing or affecting the time when a meeting of stockholders called by action of the board of directors may be held. 2.4 NOTICE OF STOCKHOLDERS' MEETINGS All notices of meetings with stockholders shall be in writing and shall be sent or otherwise given in accordance with Section 2.5 of these by-laws not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting. The notice shall specify the place, date, and hour of the meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. 2.5 MANNER OF GIVING NOTICE; AFFIDAVIT OF NOTICE Written notice of any meeting of stockholders, if mailed, is given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the stockholder at his address as it appears on the records of the corporation. An affidavit of the secretary or an assistant secretary or of the transfer agent of the corporation that the notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. 2.6 QUORUM The holders of a majority of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business except as otherwise provided by statute or by the certificate of incorporation. If, however, such quorum is not present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, then either (i) the Chairman of the meeting or (ii) the stockholders entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other announcement at the meeting, until a quorum is present or represented. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum is present or represented, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally noticed. 2.7 ADJOURNED MEETING; NOTICE When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, unless these by-laws otherwise require, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are 2 announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting the corporation may transact any business that might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. 2.8 CONDUCT OF BUSINESS The Chairman of any meeting of stockholders shall determine the order of business and the procedure at the meeting, including such regulation of the manner of voting and the conduct of business. 2.9 VOTING The stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.12 of these by-laws, subject to the provisions of Sections 217 and 218 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware (relating to voting rights of fiduciaries, pledgors and joint owners of stock and to voting trusts and other voting agreements). Except as provided in the last paragraph of this Section 2.9, or as may be otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation, each stockholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share of capital stock held by such stockholder. At a stockholders' meeting at which directors are to be elected, each stockholder shall be entitled to cumulate votes (i.e., cast for any candidate a number of votes greater than the number of votes greater than the number of votes which such stockholder normally is entitled to cast) if the candidates' names have been properly placed in nomination (in accordance with these by-laws) prior to commencement of the voting and the stockholder requesting cumulative voting has given notice prior to commencement of the voting of the stockholder's intention to cumulate votes. If cumulative voting is properly requested, each holder of stock, or of any class or classes or of a series or series thereof, who elects to cumulate votes shall be entitled to as many votes as equals the number of votes which (absent this provision as to cumulative voting) he would be entitled to cast for the election of directors with respect to his shares of stock multiplied by the number of directors to be elected by him, and he may cast all of such votes for a single director or may distribute them among the number to be voted for, or for any two or more of them, as he may see fit. 2.10 WAIVER OF NOTICE Whenever notice is required to be given under any provision of the General Corporation Law of Delaware or of the certificate of incorporation or these by-laws, a written waiver thereof, signed by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of 3 notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders need be specified in any written waiver of notice unless so required by the certificate of incorporation or these by-laws. 2.11 STOCKHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT WITHOUT A MEETING Unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation, any action required by this chapter to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of a corporation, or any action that may be taken at any annual or special meeting of such stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice, and without a vote if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing. If the action which is consented to is such as would have required the filing of a certificate under any section of the General Corporation Law of Delaware if such action had been voted on by stockholders at a meeting thereof, then the certificate filed under such section shall state, in lieu of any statement required by such section concerning any vote of stockholders, that written notice and written consent have been given as provided in Section 228 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware. 2.12 RECORD DATE FOR STOCKHOLDER NOTICE; VOTING; GIVING CONSENTS (a) Actions other than Written Consent. For the purpose of determining the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or the allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion, or exchange of stock, or other lawful purpose (other than the expression of consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting) the directors may fix, in advance, a record date, which, in the case of a meeting of stockholders, shall not be more than 60 days nor less than 10 days before the date of such meeting. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held and the record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose pursuant to this Section 2.12(a) shall be at the close of business on the day on which the board of directors adopts the resolution relating thereto. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the 4 meeting; provided, however, that the board of directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting. (b) Action by Written Consent. In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, the board of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors. Any stockholder of record seeking to have the stockholders authorize or take corporate action by written consent shall, by written notice to the secretary, request the board of directors to fix a record date. The board of directors may, at any time within ten (10) days after the date on which such a request is received, adopt a resolution fixing the record date (unless a record date has previously been fixed by the first sentence of this Section 2.12(b)). If no record date has been fixed by the board of directors pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 2.12(b) or otherwise within ten (10) days of the date on which such a request is received, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the board of directors is required by applicable law, shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the corporation by delivery to its registered office in Delaware, its principal place of business, or to any officer or agent of the corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Delivery shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. If no record date has been fixed by the board of directors and prior action by the board of directors is required by applicable law, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the date on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action. In the event of the delivery, in the manner provided by this Section 2.12(b), to the corporation of the requisite written consent or consents to take corporate action and/or any related revocation or revocations, the corporation may engage independent inspectors of elections for the purpose of performing promptly a ministerial review of the validity of the consents and revocations. For the purpose of permitting the inspectors to perform such review, in the event such inspectors are appointed, no action by written consent without a meeting shall be effective until such date as such appointed independent inspectors certify to the corporation that the consents delivered to the corporation in accordance herewith represent at least the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to take the corporate action. Nothing contained in this Section 2.12(b) shall in any way be construed to suggest or imply that the board of directors or any stockholder shall not be entitled to contest the validity of any consent or revocation thereof, whether before or after any certification by any independent inspectors, or to take any other action (including, without limitation, the commencement, prosecution or defense of any litigation with respect thereto, and the seeking of injunctive relief in such litigation). Every written consent shall bear the date of signature of each stockholder who signs the consent and no written consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein 5 unless, within sixty (60) days of the earliest dated written consent received in accordance with this Section 2.12(b), a written consent or consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take such action are delivered to the corporation in the manner prescribed herein. 2.13 PROXIES Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for him by a written proxy, signed by the stockholder and filed with the secretary of the corporation, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three (3) years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A proxy shall be deemed signed if the stockholder's name is placed on the proxy (whether by manual signature, typewriting, telegraphic transmission or otherwise) by the stockholder or the stockholder's attorney-in-fact. The revocability of a proxy that states on its face that it is irrevocable shall be governed by the provisions of Section 212(c) of the General Corporation Law of Delaware. 2.14 LIST OF STOCKHOLDERS ENTITLED TO VOTE The officer who has charge of the stock ledger of a corporation shall prepare and make, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not so specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held. The list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. Such list shall presumptively determine the identity of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting and the number of shares held by each of them. 2.15 INSPECTORS OF ELECTION Before any meeting of stockholders, the board of directors may appoint an inspector or inspectors of election to act at the meeting or its adjournment. If no inspector of election is so appointed, the chairman of the meeting may, and on the request of any stockholder or a stockholder's proxy shall, appoint an inspector or inspectors of election to act at the meeting. The number of inspectors shall be either one (1) or three (3). If inspectors are appointed at a meeting pursuant to the request of one (1) or more stockholders or proxies, the holders of a majority of shares or their proxies present at the meeting shall determine whether one (1) or three (3) inspectors are to be appointed. If any person appointed as inspector fails to appear or fails or refuses to act, the chairman of the meeting may, and upon the request of any stockholder or a stockholder's proxy shall, appoint a person to fill that vacancy. 6 Such inspectors shall: (a) Determine the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each, the number of shares represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum, and the authenticity, validity and effect of proxies; (b) Receive votes, ballots or consents; (c) Hear and determine all challenges and questions in any way arising in connection with the right to vote; (d) Count and tabulate all votes or consents; (e) Determine when the polls shall close; (f) Determine the result; and (g) Do any other acts that may be proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all stockholders. 2.16 NOMINATIONS AND PROPOSALS Nominations of persons for election to the board of directors and the proposal of business to be considered by the stockholders may be made at any meeting of stockholders only (a) pursuant to the corporation's notice of meeting, (b) by or at the direction of the board of directors or (c) by any stockholder of the corporation who was a stockholder of record at the time of giving of notice provided for in these bylaws, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.16. For nominations or other business to be properly brought before a stockholders meeting by a stockholder pursuant to clause (c) of the preceding sentence, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the secretary of the corporation and such other business must otherwise be a proper matter for stockholder action. To be timely, a stockholder's notice shall be delivered to the secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation not later than the close of business on the 60th day nor earlier than the close of business on the 90th day prior to the meeting; provided, however, that in the event that less than 65 days notice of the meeting is given to stockholders, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the seventh (7th) day following the day on which the notice of meeting was mailed. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment of a stockholders meeting commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder's notice as described above. Such stockholder's notice shall set forth (a) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election 7 or reelection as a director all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors in an election contest, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (or any successor thereto) and Rule 14a-11 thereunder (or any successor thereto) (including such person's written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected); (b) as to any other business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a reasonably detailed description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting, the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made; and (c) as to the stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made (i) the name and address of such stockholder, as they appear on the corporation's books, and of such beneficial owner, and (ii) the class and number of shares of the corporation which are owned beneficially and of record by such stockholder and such beneficial owner. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at a stockholders meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.16. ARTICLE III DIRECTORS 3.1 POWERS Subject to the provisions of the General Corporation Law of Delaware and any limitations in the certificate of incorporation or these by-laws relating to action required to be approved by the stockholders or by the outstanding shares, the business and affairs of the corporation shall be managed and all corporate powers shall be exercised by or under the direction of the board of directors. 3.2 NUMBER OF DIRECTORS The board of directors shall consist of eight (8) persons until changed by a proper amendment of this Section 3.2. No reduction of the authorized number of directors shall have the effect of removing any director before that director's term of office expires. 3.3 ELECTION, QUALIFICATION AND TERM OF OFFICE OF DIRECTORS Except as provided in Section 3.4 of these by-laws, directors shall be elected at each annual meeting of stockholders to hold office until the next annual meeting. Directors need not be stockholders unless so required by the certificate of incorporation or these by-laws, wherein other qualifications for directors may be prescribed. Each director, including a director elected to fill a 8 vacancy, shall hold office until his successor is elected and qualified or until his earlier resignation or removal. Election of directors need not be by written ballot. 3.4 RESIGNATION AND VACANCIES Any director may resign at any time upon written notice to the attention of the secretary of the corporation. When one or more directors so resigns and the resignation is effective at a future date, a majority of the directors then in office, including those who have so resigned, shall have power to fill such vacancy or vacancies, the vote thereon to take effect when such resignation or resignations shall become effective, and each director so chosen shall hold office as provided in this section in the filling of other vacancies. Unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation or these by-laws: (i) Vacancies and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors elected by all of the stockholders having the right to vote as a single class may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director. (ii) Whenever the holders of any class or classes of stock or series thereof are entitled to elect one or more directors by the provisions of the certificate of incorporation, vacancies and newly created directorships of such class or classes or series may be filled by a majority of the directors elected by such class or classes or series thereof then in office, or by a sole remaining director so elected. If at any time, by reason of death or resignation or other cause, the corporation should have no directors in office, then any officer or any stockholder or an executor, administrator, trustee or guardian of a stockholder, or other fiduciary entrusted with like responsibility for the person or estate of a stockholder, may call a special meeting of stockholders in accordance with the provisions of the certificate of incorporation or these by-laws, or may apply to the Court of Chancery for a decree summarily ordering an election as provided in Section 211 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware. If, at the time of filling any vacancy or any newly created directorship, the directors then in office constitute less than a majority of the whole board ( as constituted immediately prior to any such increase), then the Court of Chancery may, upon application of any stockholder or stockholders holding at least ten (10) percent of the total number of the shares at the time outstanding having the right to vote for such directors, summarily order an election to be held to fill any such vacancies or newly created directorships, or to replace the directors chosen by the directors 9 then in office as aforesaid, which election shall be governed by the provisions of Section 211 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware as far as applicable. 3.5 PLACE OF MEETINGS; MEETINGS BY TELEPHONE The board of directors of the corporation may hold meetings, both regular and special, either within or outside the State of Delaware. Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of incorporation or these by-laws, members of the board of directors, or any committee designated by the board of directors, may participate in a meeting of the board of directors, or any committee, by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at the meeting. 3.6 REGULAR MEETINGS Regular meetings of the board of directors may be held without notice at such time and at such place as shall from time to time be determined by the board. 3.7 SPECIAL MEETINGS; NOTICE Special meetings of the board of directors for any purpose or purposes may be called at any time by the chairman of the board, the president, the chief executive officer, any vice president, the secretary or any two (2) directors. Notice of the time and place of special meetings shall be delivered personally or by telephone to each director or sent by first-class mail or telegram, charges prepaid, addressed to each director at that director's address as it is shown on the records of the corporation. If the notice is mailed, it shall be deposited in the United States mail at least four (4) days before the time of the holding of the meeting. If the notice is delivered personally or by telephone or by telegram, it shall be delivered personally or by telephone or to the telegraph company at least forty-eight (48) hours before the time of the holding of the meeting. Any oral notice given personally or by telephone may be communicated either to the director or to a person at the office of the director who the person giving the notice has reason to believe will promptly communicate it to the director. The notice need not specify the purpose or the place of the meeting, if the meeting is to be held at the principal executive office of the corporation. 3.8 QUORUM At all meetings of the board of directors, a majority of the authorized number of directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business and the act of a majority of the directors present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the board of directors, except 10 as may be otherwise specifically provided by statute or by the certificate of incorporation. If a quorum is not present at any meeting of the board of directors, then the directors present thereat may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum is present. A meeting at which a quorum is initially present may continue to transact business notwithstanding the withdrawal of directors, if any action taken is approved by at least a majority of the required quorum for that meeting. 3.9 WAIVER OF NOTICE Whenever notice is required to be given under any provision of the General Corporation Law of Delaware or of the certificate of incorporation or these by-laws, a written waiver thereof, signed by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the directors, or members of a committee of directors, need to specified in any written waiver of notice unless so required by the certificate of incorporation or these by-laws. 3.10 BOARD ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT WITHOUT A MEETING Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of incorporation or these by-laws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the board of directors, or of any committee thereof, may be taken without a meeting if all members of the board or committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing and the writing or writings are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the board or committee. 3.11 FEES AND COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of incorporation or these by-laws, the board of directors shall have the authority to fix the compensation of directors. 3.12 APPROVAL OF LOANS TO OFFICERS The corporation may lend money to, or guarantee any obligation of, or otherwise assist any officer or other employee of the corporation or of its subsidiary. including any officer or employee who is a director of the corporation or its subsidiary, whenever, in the judgment of the directors, such loan, guaranty or assistance may reasonably be expected to benefit the corporation. The loan, guaranty or other assistance may be with or without interest and may be unsecured, or secured in 11 such manner as the board of directors shall approve, including, without limitation, a pledge of shares of stock of the corporation. Nothing in this section contained shall be deemed to deny, limit or restrict the powers of guaranty or warranty of the corporation at common law or under any statute. 3.13 REMOVAL OF DIRECTORS Unless otherwise restricted by statute, by the certificate of incorporation or by these by-laws, any director or the entire board of directors may be removed, with or without cause, by the holders of a majority of the shares then entitled to vote at an election of directors; provided, however, that, so long as shareholders of the corporation are entitled to cumulative voting, if less than the entire board is to be removed, no director may be removed without cause if the votes cast against his removal would be sufficient to elect him if then cumulatively voted at an election of the entire board of directors. No reduction of the authorized number of directors shall have the effect of removing any director prior to the expiration of such director's term of office. ARTICLE IV COMMITTEES 4.1 COMMITTEES OF DIRECTORS The board of directors may, by resolution passed by a majority of the whole board, designate one or more committees, with each committee to consist of one or more of the directors of the corporation.

ARTICLE VI INDEMNITY 6.1 THIRD PARTY ACTIONS The corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the corporation, or that such director or officer is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture trust or other enterprise (collectively "Agent"), against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement (if such settlement is approved in advance by the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with the respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the corporation, and, with the respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was lawful. 6.2 ACTIONS BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE CORPORATION The corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a Agent (as defined in Section 6.1) against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the 17 circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Delaware Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper. 6.3 SUCCESSFUL DEFENSE To the extent that an agent of the corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections 6.1 and 6.2, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith. 6.4 DETERMINATION OF CONDUCT Any indemnification under Sections 6.1 and 6.2 (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that the indemnification of the Agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 6.1 and 6.2. Such determination shall be made (1) by the Board of Directors or an executive committee by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, or (2) or if such quorum is not obtainable or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (3) by the stockholders. 6.5 PAYMENT OF EXPENSES IN ADVANCE Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director, officer, employee or agent to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this Article VI. 6.6 INDEMNITY NOT EXCLUSIVE The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided or granted pursuant to the other subsections of this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity in another capacity while holding such office. 6.7 INSURANCE INDEMNIFICATION The corporation shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was an Agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation, as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint 18 venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this Article VI. 6.8 THE CORPORATION For purposes of this Article VI, references to "the corporation" shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors and officers, so that any person who is or was a director or Agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under and subject to the provisions of this Article VI (including, without limitation the provisions of Section 6.4) with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued. 6.9 EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS For purposes of this Article VI, references to "other enterprises" shall include employee benefit plans; references to "fines" shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to "serving at the request of the corporation" shall include any service as a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee, or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants, or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner "not opposed to the best interests of the corporation" as referred to in this Article VI. 6.10 INDEMNITY FUND Upon resolution passed by the Board, the corporation may establish a trust or other designated account, grant a security interest or use other means (including, without limitation, a letter of credit), to ensure the payment of certain of its obligations arising under this Article VI and/or agreements which may be entered into between the corporation and its officers and directors from time to time. 6.11 INDEMNIFICATION OF OTHER PERSONS The provisions of this Article VI shall not be deemed to preclude the indemnification of any person who is not an Agent (as defined in Section 6.1), but whom the corporation has the power or obligation to indemnify under the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of 19 Delaware or otherwise. The corporation may, in its sole discretion, indemnify an employee, trustee or other agent as permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. The corporation shall indemnify an employee, trustee or other agent where required by law. 6.12 SAVING CLAUSE If this Article or any portion thereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each Agent against expenses (including attorney's fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal or administrative, and whether internal or external, including a grand jury proceeding and an action or suit brought by or in the right of the corporation, to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article that shall not have been invalidated, or by any other applicable law. 6.13 CONTINUATION OF INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article VI shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person. ARTICLE VII RECORDS AND REPORTS 7.1 MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION OF RECORDS The corporation shall, either at its principal executive office or at such place or places as designated by the board of directors, keep a record of its stockholders listing their names and addresses and the number and class of shares held by each stockholder, a copy of these by-laws as amended to date, accounting books, and other records. Any stockholder of record, in person or by attorney or other agent, shall, upon written demand under oath stating the purpose thereof, have the right during the usual hours for business to inspect for any proper purpose the corporation's stock ledger, a list of its stockholders, and its other books and records and to make copies or extracts therefrom. A proper purpose shall mean a purpose reasonably related to such person's interest as a stockholder. In every instance where an attorney or other agent is the person who seeks the right to inspection, the demand under oath shall be accompanied by a power of attorney or such other writing that authorizes the attorney or other agent to so act on behalf of the stockholder. The demand under oath shall be directed to the corporation at its registered office in Delaware or at its principal place of business. 20 7.2 INSPECTION BY DIRECTORS Any director shall have the right to examine the corporation's stock ledger, a list of its stockholders, and its other books and records for a purpose reasonably related to his position as a director. The Court of Chancery is hereby vested with the exclusive jurisdiction to determine whether a director is entitled to the inspection sought. The Court may summarily order the corporation to permit the director to inspect any and all books and records, the stock ledger, and the stock list and to make copies or extracts therefrom. The Court may, in its discretion, prescribe any limitations or conditions with reference to the inspection, or award such other and further relief as the Court may be deem just and proper. 7.3 ANNUAL STATEMENT TO STOCKHOLDERS The board of directors shall present at each annual meeting, and at any special meeting of the stockholders when called for by vote of the stockholders, a full and clear statement of the business and condition of the corporation. ARTICLE VIII GENERAL MATTERS 8.1 CHECKS From time to time, the board of directors shall determine by resolution which person or persons may sign or endorse all checks, drafts, other orders for payment of money,, notes or other evidences of indebtedness that are issued in the name of or payable to the corporation, and only the persons so authorized shall sign or endorse those instruments. 8.2 EXECUTION OF CORPORATE CONTRACTS AND INSTRUMENTS The board of directors, except as otherwise provided in these by-laws, may authorize any officer or officers, or agent or agents, to enter into any contract or execute any instrument in the name of and on behalf of the corporation; such authority may be general or confined to specific instances. Unless so authorized or ratified by the board of directors or within the agency power of an officer, no officer, agent or employee shall have any power or authority to bind the corporation by any contract or engagement or to pledge its credit or to render it liable for any purpose or for any amount. 21 8.3 STOCK CERTIFICATES; PARTLY PAID SHARES The shares of a corporation shall be represented by certificates, provided that the board of directors of the corporation may provide by resolution or resolutions that some or all of any or all classes or series of its stock shall be uncertificated shares. Any such resolution shall not apply to shares represented by a certificate until such certificate is surrendered to the corporation. Notwithstanding the adoption of such a resolution by the board of directors, every holder of stock represented by certificates and upon request every holder of uncertificated shares shall be entitled to have a certificate signed by, or in the name of the corporation by the chairman or vice-chairman of the board of directors, or the president or vice-president, and by the chief financial officer or an assistant treasurer, or the secretary or an assistant secretary of such corporation representing the number of shares registered in certificate form. Any or all of the signatures on the certificate may be a facsimile. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate has ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the corporation with the same effect as if he were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue. The corporation may issue the whole or any part of its shares as partly paid and subject to call for the remainder of the consideration to be paid therefor. Upon the face or back of each stock certificate issued to represent any such partly paid shares, upon the books and records of the corporation in the case of uncertificated partly paid shares, the total amount of the consideration to be paid therefor and the amount paid thereon shall be stated. Upon the declaration of any dividend on fully paid shares, the corporation shall declare a dividend upon partly paid shares of the same class, but only upon the basis of the percentage of the consideration actually paid thereon. 8.4 SPECIAL DESIGNATION ON CERTIFICATES If the corporation is authorized to issue more than one class of stock or more than one series of any class, then the powers, the designations, the preferences, and the relative, participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights shall be set forth in full or summarized on the face or back of the certificate that the corporation shall issue to represent such class or series of stock; provided, however, that, except as otherwise provided in Section 202 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware, in lieu of the foregoing requirements there may be set forth on the face or back of the certificate that the corporation shall issue to represent such class or series of stock a statement that the corporation will furnish without charge to each stockholder who so requests the powers, the designations, the preferences, and the relative, participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights. 22 8.5 LOST CERTIFICATES Except as provided in this Section 8.5, no new certificates for shares shall be issued to replace a previously issued certificate unless the latter is surrendered to the corporation and cancelled at the same time. The corporation may issue a new certificate of stock or uncertificated shares in the place of any certificate theretofore issued by it, alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, and the corporation may require the owner of the lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, or his legal representative, to give the corporation a bond sufficient to indemnify it against any claim that may be made against it on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate or uncertificated shares. 8.6 CONSTRUCTION; DEFINITIONS Unless the context requires otherwise, the general provisions, rules of construction, and definitions in the General Corporation Law of Delaware, shall govern the construction of these by-laws. Without limiting the generality of this provision, the singular number includes the plural, the plural number includes the singular, and the term "person" includes both a corporation and a natural person. 8.7 DIVIDENDS The directors of the corporation, subject to any restrictions contained in (i) the General Corporation Law of Delaware or (ii) the certificate of incorporation, may declare and pay dividends upon the shares of its capital stock. Dividends may be paid in cash, in property, or in shares of the corporation's capital stock. The directors of the corporation may set apart out of any of the funds of the corporation available for dividends a reserve or reserves for any proper purpose and may abolish any such reserve. Such purposes shall include but not be limited to equalizing dividends, repairing or maintaining any property of the corporation, and meeting contingencies. 8.8 FISCAL YEAR The fiscal year of the corporation shall be fixed by resolution of the board of directors and may be changed by the board of directors. 8.9 SEAL The corporation may adopt a corporate seal, which may be altered at pleasure, and may use the same by causing it or a facsimile thereof, to be impressed or affixed or in any other manner reproduced. 23 8.10 TRANSFER OF STOCK Upon surrender to the corporation or the transfer agent of the corporation of a certificate for shares duly endorsed or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignation or authority to transfer, it shall be the duty of the corporation to issue a new certificate to the person entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate, and record the transaction in its books. 8.11 STOCK TRANSFER AGREEMENTS The corporation shall have power to enter into and perform any agreement with any number of stockholders of any one or more classes of stock of the corporation to restrict the transfer of shares of stock of the corporation of any one or more classes owned by such stockholders in any manner not prohibited by the General Corporation Law of Delaware. 8.12 REGISTERED STOCKHOLDERS The corporation shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a person registered on its books as the owner of shares to receive dividends and to vote as such owner, shall be entitled to hold liable for calls and assessments the person registered on its books as the owner of shares, and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares on the part of another person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by the laws of Delaware. ARTICLE IX AMENDMENTS The by-laws of the corporation may be adopted, amended or repealed by the stockholders entitled to vote; provided, however, that the corporation may, in its certificate of incorporation, confer the power to adopt, amend or repeal by-laws upon the directors. The fact that such power has been so conferred upon the directors shall not divest the stockholders of the power, nor limit their power to adopt, amend or repeal by-laws. 24 EX-10.26 4 f79795ex10-26.txt EXHIBIT 10.26 Exhibit 10.26 LSI LOGIC CORPORATION WILFRED J. CORRIGAN EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT This Agreement is made by and between LSI Logic Corporation ("the Company"), and you, Wilfred J. Corrigan, as of September 20, 2001 (the "Effective Date"). 1. Duties and Scope of Employment. (a) Positions and Duties. You will continue to serve as Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chairman of the Company's Board of Directors ("Chairman"). You will render such business and professional services in the performance of your duties, consistent with your position within the Company, as may reasonably be assigned to you by the Board of Directors (the "Board"). If the Board appoints a different CEO during your term of employment with the Company, you will serve as the employee Chairman of the Company. Your term of employment with the Company is referred to as the "Employment Term". (b) Obligations. During the Employment Term, you will devote your full business efforts and time to the Company and such of its subsidiaries as the Board may designate. During the Employment Term, you will not engage in any other employment, occupation or consulting activity for any direct or indirect remuneration without the prior approval of the Board (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld), except that without the approval of the Board, and to the extent that such service does not substantially interfere with your duties under this Agreement, you may serve in any capacity with any civic, educational or charitable organization and on any board of directors on which you presently serve. 2. Employee Benefits. During the Employment Term, you will be eligible to participate in all Company employee benefit plans that are applicable to executive officers of the Company, as such plans may exist from time to time and at a level commensurate with your position. 3. Vacation. During the Employment Term, you will be entitled to the same amount of paid vacation time as other executive officers of the Company. 4. At-Will Employment. Your employment with the Company constitutes "at-will" employment. You and the Company acknowledge that this employment relationship may be terminated at any time, upon written notice to the other party, with or without good cause or for any or no cause, at the option of either you or the Company. However, as described in this Agreement, you may be entitled to severance benefits depending upon the circumstances of your termination of employment. 5. Business Expenses. The Company will pay or reimburse you for all business expenses incurred while performing your duties under this Agreement. Such reimbursements will be in accordance with the Company's established policies, as they may exist from time to time. 6. Compensation. (a) Base Salary. During the Employment Term, the Company will pay you as compensation for your services a base salary as determined by the Board from time to time (the "Base Salary"). The Base Salary will be paid through payroll periods that are consistent with the Company's normal payroll practices, but in any case not less frequently than once per month. (b) Annual Bonus. For each calendar year during which you are CEO, you will be eligible to receive a bonus based upon the achievement of one or more performance goals specified by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the "Committee"), as provided in the Company's Chief Executive Officer Incentive Plan or another similar plan adopted by the Company (the "Bonus Plan"). The actual amount of the bonus (if any) payable to you for any year will depend upon the extent to which the applicable performance goal(s) have been satisfied. In determining the bonus formula for any year, the Committee may (but will not be required to) specify a target bonus (the "Target Bonus") to be paid if the performance goal(s) specified by the Committee are exactly 100% achieved (with the actual bonus payable being increased or decreased for over- or underachievement of the performance goal(s)). For purposes of Section 7 below, if the Committee does not specify a Target Bonus for a particular year, your Target Bonus for that year will be deemed to equal 50% of the maximum annual bonus payable under the Bonus Plan. 7. Severance. (a) Termination Other than for Cause; Termination as a Result of Death or Disability. If the Company terminates your employment for any reason other than "Cause" (as defined below) or if your employment terminates as a result of your death or "Disability" (as defined below), then you will be entitled to the following: (i) Option Acceleration and Time to Exercise. Any then unexpired Company stock options that were granted after the Effective Date, your Company stock option grant no. 018891, dated November 11, 1999 (if then unexpired), and your Company stock option grant no. 025112, dated April 2, 2001 (if then unexpired) will immediately become fully vested and exercisable. In addition, with respect to each option described in the preceding sentence, you will have the respective full term of each such option to exercise the option. (ii) Other Benefits. You will be paid a lump sum equal to: (1) thirty-six (36) months of your Base Salary (as in effect immediately prior to the date of your employment termination), and (2) 300% of your Target Bonus for the year in which the employment termination occurs. In addition, the Company shall provide you with (a) health, dental and vision coverage benefits during the period of twenty-four (24) months following the date of your employment termination, provided, however, that you elect continuation coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended ("COBRA"), within the time period prescribed pursuant to COBRA, and (b) life insurance benefits during the period of eighteen (18) months following the date of your employment termination, at the same level as each of such benefits were in effect for you on the day immediately preceding the date of your employment termination. -2- (iii) Accrued Wages and Vacation; Expenses. The Company will pay you: (1) any unpaid Base Salary due for periods prior to the date of your employment termination; (2) all of your accrued and unused vacation through the date of your employment termination; and (3) following your submission of proper expense reports, the total unreimbursed amount of all expenses that you reasonably and necessarily incurred in connection with the business of the Company prior to the date of your employment termination. These payments will be made promptly upon your employment termination and within the period of time mandated by law. (b) Certain Voluntary Resignations. If you voluntarily resign as CEO for any reason other than your death or Disability and the Company asks you to remain as the employee Chairman and you agree to do so, then you will be entitled to receive the following: (i) Option Vesting and Time to Exercise. The vesting schedule of any unvested Company stock option granted after the Effective Date that remains outstanding on the effective date of your resignation (the "Resignation Date"), of your Company stock option grant no. 018891, dated November 11, 1999 (if then unexpired and to the extent not yet vested), and of your Company stock option grant no. 025112, dated April 2, 2001 (if then unexpired and the extent not yet vested) automatically will be converted to a monthly vesting schedule pursuant to the following rules. The number of shares that will be scheduled to vest on each "Monthly Vesting Date" will equal the "Monthly Vesting Amount." The Monthly Vesting Amount equals the product of the total number of unvested shares covered by the option on the Resignation Date, and the "Vesting Multiplier." The Vesting Multiplier equals the reciprocal of the number of full months (but in no event more than 36) between the Resignation Date and the date on which the option originally was scheduled to become fully vested (the "Final Vesting Date"). The Monthly Vesting Date is the monthly anniversary of the Final Vesting Date. The Monthly Vesting Amount actually will vest on any Monthly Vesting Date only if you still are Chairman on that Monthly Vesting Date, subject to the following: if, before your options become fully vested in accordance with the rules of this Section 7(b)(i), the Company terminates your employment for any reason other than Cause or if your employment terminates as a result of your death or Disability, then all of your then unexpired Company stock options (whether granted before, on or after the Effective Date) will immediately become fully vested and exercisable. In addition, with respect to each option described in this Section 7(b)(i), you will have the respective full term of each such option to exercise the vested part of the option. (ii) Examples of Option Vesting Rules. The vesting rules of Section 7(b)(i) are illustrated by the following examples. Assume that the Resignation Date is June 1, 2007, and that the Company asks you to remain as Chairman and you agree to do so. (1) Also assume that you have an option that covers 240,000 unvested shares on the Resignation Date and the Final Vesting Date is April 15, 2011. Therefore, the number of full months remaining until the Final Vesting Date is forty six, and the Vesting Multiplier is the reciprocal of 36. The Monthly Vesting Amount is 6,667 shares (6,655 shares on the last Monthly Vesting Date, due to rounding). The Monthly Vesting Date is the 15th of each month, commencing June 15, 2007. (2) Assume the same facts as in the preceding example, except that the Final Vesting Date is November 20, 2007. Therefore, the number of full months remaining until the Final Vesting Date is five, and the Vesting Multiplier is the reciprocal of 5. The Monthly Vesting Amount is 48,000 shares. The Monthly Vesting Date is the 20th of each month, commencing June 20, 2007. -3- (iii) Other Benefits. You will be paid a lump sum equal to: (1) thirty-six (36) months of your Base Salary (as in effect immediately prior to the date of your employment termination), and (2) 300% of your Target Bonus for the year in which the employment termination occurs. In addition, the Company shall provide you with (a) health, dental and vision coverage benefits during the period of twenty-four (24) months following the end of the Employment Term; provided, however, that you elect continuation coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended ("COBRA"), within the time period prescribed pursuant to COBRA, and (b) life insurance benefits during the period of eighteen (18) months following the Employment Term, at the same level as each of such benefits were in effect for you on the day immediately preceding the date of your employment termination. (iv) Accrued Wages and Vacation; Expenses. The Company will pay you: (1) any unpaid Base Salary due for periods prior to the Resignation Date; (2) all of your accrued and unused vacation through the Resignation Date; and (3) following your submission of proper expense reports, the total unreimbursed amount of all expenses that you reasonably and necessarily incurred in connection with the business of the Company prior to the Resignation Date. These payments will be made promptly following the Resignation Date. (c) Certain Voluntary Terminations. If you voluntarily terminate your employment as CEO for any reason other than your death or Disability and the Company does not ask you to remain as Chairman, then you will be entitled to receive the following: (i) Option Acceleration and Time to Exercise. Any then unexpired Company stock options that were granted after the Effective Date, your Company stock option grant no. 018891, dated November 11, 1999 (if then unexpired), and your Company stock option grant no. 025112, dated April 2, 2001 (if then unexpired) will immediately become fully vested and exercisable. In addition, with respect to each option described in the preceding sentence, you will have the respective full term of each such option to exercise the option. (ii) Other Benefits. You will be paid a lump sum equal to: (1) thirty-six (36) months of your Base Salary (as in effect immediately prior to the date of your employment termination), and (2) 300% of your Target Bonus for the year in which the employment termination occurs. In addition, the Company shall provide you with (a) health, dental and vision coverage benefits during the period of twenty-four (24) months following the date of your employment termination, provided, however, that you elect continuation coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended ("COBRA"), within the time period prescribed pursuant to COBRA, and (b) life insurance benefits during the period of eighteen (18) months following the date of your employment termination, at the same level as each of such benefits were in effect for you on the day immediately preceding the date of your employment termination. (iii) Accrued Wages and Vacation; Expenses. The Company will pay you: (1) any unpaid Base Salary due for periods prior to the date of your employment termination; (2) all of your accrued and unused vacation through the date of your employment termination; and (3) following your submission of proper expense reports, the total unreimbursed amount of all expenses that you reasonably and necessarily incurred in connection with the business of the Company prior -4- to the date of your employment termination. These payments will be made promptly upon your employment termination and within the period of time mandated by law. (d) Termination for Cause; Other Voluntary Terminations. If (1) the Company terminates your employment for Cause or (2) if you voluntarily terminate your employment for any reason (other than your death or Disability) and the Company asks you to remain as Chairman but you do not agree to do so, then you will receive: (i) the Base Salary owed to you through the date of your employment termination, (ii) any bonus earned under Section 6(b) prior to the date of your employment termination, (iii) all accrued vacation, expense reimbursements and any other benefits due to you through the date of your employment termination in accordance with the Company's then existing employee benefit plans and policies, and (iv) such other compensation or benefits from the Company as may be required by law (for example, COBRA benefits under Section 4980B of the Code) or as part of your other employment-related agreements. Thus, for example, vesting of your Company stock options will cease upon your termination of employment and you will have until the earlier of ninety (90) days after your termination of employment or the normal expiration date of your option(s) to exercise any vested but unexpired options. 8. Golden Parachute Excise Tax Gross-Up. In the event that the benefits provided for in this Agreement or otherwise payable to you constitute "parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and will be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then you will receive a payment from the Company sufficient to pay such excise tax, plus (ii) an additional payment from the Company sufficient to pay the excise tax and federal and state income and employment taxes arising from the payments made to you by the Company pursuant to this sentence. Unless you and the Company otherwise agree in writing, the determination of your excise tax liability and the amount required to be paid under this Section 8 will be made in writing by the independent auditors who are primarily used by the Company immediately prior to the change of control (the "Accountants"). For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 8, the Accountants may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. You and the Company will furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section 8. The Company will bear all costs the Accountants may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 8. 9. Maximum Deductibility for the Company. To the extent a payment under this Agreement would be subject to the Section 162(m) limit of the Code, the Board may elect to defer such payment until the first date when the payment would not be subject to the limit. 10. Definition of Terms. The following terms referred to in this Agreement shall have the following meanings: (a) Cause. "Cause" means termination due to your willful engagement in misconduct that is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole. No act, or failure to act, on your part will be considered "willful" unless done, or omitted to be done, by you not in good faith and without reasonable belief that your action or -5- omission was in the best interest of the Company or its subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will not be deemed to have been terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to you a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters of the entire membership of the Company's Board of Directors at a meeting of the Board called and held for the purpose (after reasonable notice to you and an opportunity for you, together with your counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board you were guilty of misconduct as set forth above and specifying the particulars thereof in detail. (b) Disability. "Disability" means your being unable to perform the principal functions of your duties due to a physical or mental impairment, but only if such inability has lasted or is reasonably expected to last for at least twelve (12) months. The Board will determine whether a Disability exists based on evidence provided by one or more physicians selected by the Board. 11. Assignment. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of (a) your heirs, executors and legal representatives upon your death and (b) any successor of the Company. Any such successor of the Company will be deemed substituted for the Company under the terms of this Agreement for all purposes. For this purpose, "successor" means any person, firm, corporation or other business entity which at any time, whether by purchase, merger or otherwise, directly or indirectly acquires all or substantially all of the assets or business of the Company. None of your rights to receive any form of compensation payable pursuant to this Agreement may be assigned or transferred except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any other attempted assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of your right to compensation or other benefits will be null and void. 12. Legal Fees. The Company will reimburse you for your reasonable, direct costs of obtaining counsel to review this Agreement. In addition, the Company will reimburse all reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by you in contesting any termination or in seeking to obtain or enforce any right or benefit provided by this Agreement. 13. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications called for hereunder shall be in writing and will be deemed given (i) on the date of delivery if delivered personally, (ii) one (1) day after being sent by a well established commercial overnight service, or (iii) four (4) days after being mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, prepaid and addressed to the parties or their successors at the following addresses, or at such other addresses as the parties may later designate in writing: If to the Company: LSI Logic Corporation 1551 McCarthy Boulevard Milpitas, CA 95035 Attn: Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary If to you: -6- at your last residential address known by the Company. 14. Severability. In the event that any provision hereof becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, this Agreement will continue in full force and effect without said provision. 15. Confidentiality. You agree to use your best efforts to maintain in confidence the existence of this Agreement, the contents and terms of this Agreement, including any documents incorporated by reference, and the consideration for this Agreement (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Employment Information"). You agree to take every reasonable precaution to prevent disclosure of any Employment Information to third parties, and agree that there will be no publicity, directly or indirectly, concerning any Employment Information. You agree to take every precaution to disclose Employment Information only to those attorneys, accountants, governmental entities and family members who have a reasonable need to know of such Employment Information. After termination of employment for any reason, you will continue to maintain the confidentiality of all Employment Information. 16. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Chief Executive Officer Incentive Plan, and agreements evidencing the options represent the entire agreement and understanding between the Company and you concerning your employment relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries, and supersedes and replaces any and all prior agreements and understandings concerning your employment relationship with the Company. For example (but not by way of limitation), your 1998 Change of Control Severance Agreement no longer is effective and you will not be entitled to receive any benefits under that agreement. 17. Arbitration and Equitable Relief. (a) Except as provided in Section 16(d) below, you and the Company agree that to the extent permitted by law, any dispute or controversy arising out of, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement, or the interpretation, validity, construction, performance, breach, or termination thereof will be settled by arbitration to be held in the County of Santa Clara, California, in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes then in effect of the American Arbitration Association (the "Rules"). The arbitrator may grant injunctions or other relief in such dispute or controversy. The decision of the arbitrator will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties to the arbitration. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator's decision in any court having jurisdiction. (b) The arbitrator will apply California law to the merits of any dispute or claim (with the exception of its conflict of laws provisions). You hereby expressly consent to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in California for any action or proceeding arising from or relating to this Agreement and/or relating to any arbitration in which the parties are participants. (c) The Company will pay the direct costs and expenses of the arbitration. The Company will pay your counsel fees and expenses. -7- (d) The Company or you may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, or other interim or conservatory relief, as necessary to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, without breach of this arbitration agreement and without abridgement of the powers of the arbitrator. (e) You understand that nothing in this Section 16 modifies your at-will status. Either the Company or you can terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without cause. (f) YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS SECTION 16, WHICH DISCUSSES ARBITRATION. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AGREE TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TO SUBMIT ANY FUTURE CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE INTERPRETATION, VALIDITY, CONSTRUCTION, PERFORMANCE, BREACH, OR TERMINATION THEREOF TO BINDING ARBITRATION, AND THAT THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND RELATES TO THE RESOLUTION OF ALL DISPUTES RELATING TO ALL ASPECTS OF THE EMPLOYER/EXECUTIVE RELATIONSHIP, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE FOLLOWING CLAIMS: (i) ANY AND ALL CLAIMS FOR WRONGFUL DISCHARGE OF EMPLOYMENT; BREACH OF CONTRACT, BOTH EXPRESS AND IMPLIED; BREACH OF THE COVENANT OF GOOD FAITH AND FAIR DEALING, BOTH EXPRESS AND IMPLIED; NEGLIGENT OR INTENTIONAL INFLICTION OF EMOTIONAL DISTRESS; NEGLIGENT OR INTENTIONAL MISREPRESENTATION; NEGLIGENT OR INTENTIONAL INTERFERENCE WITH CONTRACT OR PROSPECTIVE ECONOMIC ADVANTAGE; AND DEFAMATION; (ii) ANY AND ALL CLAIMS FOR VIOLATION OF ANY FEDERAL STATE OR MUNICIPAL STATUTE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT OF 1990, THE FAIR LABOR STANDARDS ACT, AND ANY LAW OF ANY STATE; AND (iii) ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF ANY OTHER LAWS AND REGULATIONS RELATING TO EMPLOYMENT OR EMPLOYMENT DISCRIMINATION. 18. No Oral Modification, Cancellation or Discharge. This Agreement may be changed or terminated only in writing (signed by you and another member of the Board of Directors). 19. Withholding. The Company is authorized to withhold, or cause to be withheld, from any payment or benefit under this Agreement the full amount of any applicable withholding taxes. 20. Governing Law.

You acknowledge that you have had the opportunity to discuss this matter with and obtain advice from your private attorney, have had sufficient time to, and have carefully read and fully understand all the provisions of this Agreement, and are knowingly and voluntarily entering into this Agreement.
