Form of Email Announcement of Offer to Amend or Cancel and Replace Eligible Options

Subject: Action Required: Urgent Information Regarding Some of Your Unexercised Stock Options

Important: Read this email and the attachments provided under the links below carefully before completing and signing your personalized Election Form and returning it to Cirrus Logic.

Dear Cirrus Logic Option Holder:

This email contains important information about some of your unexercised stock options.

We recently performed a voluntary review of Cirrus Logic’s stock option granting practices. As a result of that review, we determined that certain stock option grants awarded under the Cirrus Logic, Inc. 1996 Stock Plan (the “1996 Plan”) and the Cirrus Logic, Inc. 2002 Stock Option Plan (the “2002 Plan”) had an exercise price per share that was less than the fair market value per share of the Cirrus Logic common stock underlying the option on the date that the grant was actually finalized. Therefore, one or more of these outstanding options may be deemed to be “below-market” options under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). The portion of such options that remained unvested as of December 31, 2004, may be subject to taxation as ordinary income and may also be subject to an additional 20% federal penalty tax plus an interest charge under Section 409A, even if you do not exercise such options. In addition, some states, including California, may impose additional penalty taxes on amounts that are subject to the 20% federal penalty tax.

You are receiving this email because we believe that some of your Cirrus Logic stock options may be subject to adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Code (and comparable state laws). A list of each of these options can be found on your attached personalized Election Form.

We are pleased to announce that, in an effort to eliminate any potential adverse tax consequences to our employees who may be subject to the additional taxes described above, Cirrus Logic is launching a program that will adjust the exercise price applicable to outstanding stock options that we believe are subject to Section 409A. If you decide to tender your “Eligible Options” (as defined in Cirrus Logic’s Offer to Amend or Cancel and Replace Eligible Options (the “Offer”)), the exercise price per share of each properly tendered Eligible Option will be amended to an increased price to reflect the fair market value of Cirrus Logic common stock underlying your Eligible Option on the date that we have determined that your grant was actually finalized. After your Eligible Option is amended (i) you will receive a special cash payment, to compensate you for the higher exercise price applicable to your amended Eligible Option or (ii) if the original grant date of your Eligible Option is either August 15, 2001, or February 21, 2002, your amended Eligible Option will be cancelled and replaced with a new option that has a reduced exercise price. You will not be eligible to receive a cash payment with respect to options that are cancelled and replaced with a new option. Any cash payment that you are entitled to receive

under the Offer will be made on the first regular payday in January 2008, and no later than January 31, 2008.

The following documents, which provide specifics regarding participation in the Offer and the potential consequences of accepting or declining the Offer, are hyperlinked to this email (except for your personalized Election Form, a copy of which is attached to this email):

Ø	The grant date indicated for that option in the applicable option agreement or grant notice,
Ø	The original exercise price in effect for that option,
Ø	The number of shares subject to your outstanding options and the number of such shares that qualify as an “Eligible Option” (if all of such shares do not meet the requirements of an “Eligible Option”),
Ø	The date that your option grant was actually finalized, as determined by us,
Ø	The adjusted exercise price that will apply to options that you properly tender for adjustment pursuant to the Offer, and
Ø	The Cash Payment that you will be entitled to receive, less applicable income, payroll, and employment tax withholding, with respect to each Amended Option that you will receive if you tender your Eligible Options, if any.
