PART I
ITEM 1. Business.
General Information
- --------------------
Texas Instruments Incorporated ("TI" or the "company," including subsidiaries
except where the context indicates otherwise) is headquartered in Dallas, Texas,
and has manufacturing, design or sales operations in more than 25 countries.
TI's largest geographic markets are in the United States, Asia, Japan and
Europe. TI has been in operation since 1930.
The financial information with respect to TI's business segments and operations
outside the United States, which is contained in the note to the financial
statements captioned "Business Segment and Geographic Area Data" on pages C-25
through C-27 of TI's proxy statement for the 2002 annual meeting of
stockholders, is incorporated herein by reference to such proxy statement.
Semiconductor
- -------------
TI is a global semiconductor company and a leading designer and supplier of
digital signal processors and analog integrated circuits, the engines driving
the digitization of electronics. These two types of semiconductor products work
together in digital electronic devices such as digital cellular phones. Digital
signal processors and analog integrated circuits enable a wide range of new
products and features for TI's more than 30,000 customers in commercial,
industrial and consumer markets.
TI also is a world leader in the design and manufacturing of other semiconductor
products. Those products include standard logic devices, application-specific
integrated circuits, reduced instruction-set computing microprocessors,
microcontrollers and digital imaging devices.
The semiconductor business comprised 83% of TI's 2001 revenues. TI's
semiconductor products are used in a diverse range of electronic systems,
including cellular telephones, personal computers, servers, communications
infrastructure equipment, digital cameras, digital audio players, motor
controls, automobiles and digital imaging systems including projector and
television systems. Products are sold to original-equipment manufacturers,
contract manufacturers and distributors. TI's semiconductor patent portfolio has
been established as an ongoing contributor to semiconductor revenues. Revenues
generated from sales to TI's top five semiconductor customers accounted for
approximately 29% of total semiconductor revenues in 2001.
The semiconductor business is intensely competitive, subject to rapid
technological change and pricing pressures, and requires high rates of
investment. TI faces strong competition in all of its semiconductor product
lines. The rapid pace of change and technological breakthroughs constantly
create new opportunities for existing competitors and start-ups, which can
quickly render existing technologies less valuable. In digital signal
processors, TI competes with a growing number of large and small companies, both
U.S.-based and international. New product development capabilities, applications
2
<PAGE>
support, software knowledge and advanced semiconductor process technology are
the primary competitive factors in this business.
The market for analog integrated circuits is highly fragmented. TI competes with
many large and small companies, both U.S.-based and international. Primary
competitive factors in this business are the availability of innovative designs
and designers, a broad range of process technologies and applications support
and, particularly in the standard products area, price.
Other TI Businesses
- -------------------
In addition to semiconductors, TI has two other principal segments. The largest,
representing 12% of TI's 2001 revenues, is Sensors & Controls. This business
sells electrical and electronic controls, sensors and radio-frequency
identification systems into commercial and industrial markets. Typically the top
supplier in targeted product areas, Sensors & Controls faces strong
multinational and regional competitors. The primary competitive factors in this
business are product reliability, manufacturing costs and engineering expertise.
The products of the business are sold to original equipment manufacturers and
distributors. Revenues generated from sales to TI's top five Sensors & Controls
customers accounted for approximately 24% of total Sensors & Controls revenues
in 2001.
Educational & Productivity Solutions (E&PS) represents 5% of TI's 2001 revenues
and is a leading supplier of graphing and educational calculators. This business
sells primarily through retailers and to schools through instructional dealers.
TI's principal competitors in this business are Japan- and U.S.-based companies.
Technology expertise, price and infrastructure for education and market
understanding are primary competitive factors in this business. Revenues
generated from sales to TI's top five E&PS customers accounted for approximately
44% of total E&PS revenues in 2001.
Acquisitions and Divestitures
- -------------------------------
From time to time TI considers acquisitions and divestitures that may strengthen
its business portfolio. TI may effect one or more of these transactions at such
time or times as it determines to be appropriate. In the third quarter of 2001,
TI acquired Graychip, a developer of digital up- and down-converters. This
acquisition strengthened TI's product offering for high-speed signal processing
applications such as digital radio, wireless basestations, point-to-point
microwave communications, broadband wireless access, cable modem head-ends, and
digital video systems. Graychip also provided expertise in data conversion
across multiple cellular standards.
Backlog
- -------
The dollar amount of backlog of orders believed by TI to be firm was $1036
million as of December 31, 2001 and $2411 million as of December 31, 2000.
Backlog orders are, under certain circumstances, subject to cancellation. Also,
there is generally a short cycle between order and shipment. Accordingly, the
company believes that its backlog as of any particular date may not be
indicative of revenue for any future period.
3
<PAGE>
Raw Materials
- --------------
TI purchases materials, parts and supplies from a number of suppliers. The
materials, parts and supplies essential to TI's business are generally available
at present and TI believes at this time that such materials, parts and supplies
will be available in the foreseeable future.
Patents and Trademarks
- ------------------------
TI owns many patents in the United States and other countries in fields relating
to its business. The company has developed a strong, broad-based patent
portfolio. TI also has several agreements with other companies involving license
rights and anticipates that other licenses may be negotiated in the future. TI
does not consider its business materially dependent upon any one patent or
patent license, although taken as a whole, the rights of TI and the products
made and sold under patents and patent licenses are important to TI's business.
TI owns trademarks that are used in the conduct of its business. These
trademarks are valuable assets, the most important of which are "Texas
Instruments" and TI's corporate monogram.
Research and Development
- --------------------------
TI's research and development expense was $1598 million in 2001, compared with
$1747 million in 2000 and $1379 million in 1999. Included is a charge for the
value of acquisition-related purchased in-process research and development of
zero in 2001, $112 million in 2000 and $79 million in 1999.
Seasonality
- -----------
TI's revenues and operating results are subject to some seasonal variation.
Employees
- ---------
The information concerning the number of persons employed by TI at December 31,
2001 on page C-31 of TI's proxy statement for the 2002 annual meeting of
stockholders is incorporated herein by reference to such proxy statement.
Cautionary Statements Regarding Future Results of Operations
- ------------------------------------------------------------
You should read the following cautionary statements in conjunction with the
factors discussed elsewhere in this and other of TI's filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and in materials incorporated by
reference in these filings. These cautionary statements are intended to
4
<PAGE>
highlight certain factors that may affect the financial condition and results of
operations of TI and are not meant to be an exhaustive discussion of risks that
apply to companies with broad international operations, such as TI. Like other
businesses, TI is susceptible to macroeconomic downturns in the United States or
abroad that may affect the general economic climate and performance of TI or its
customers. Similarly, the price of TI's securities is subject to volatility due
to fluctuations in general market conditions, differences in TI's results of
operations from estimates and projections generated by the investment community
and other factors beyond TI's control.
Further Weakening or Delayed Recovery in the Semiconductor Market May Adversely
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Affect TI's Performance.
- -----------------------
TI's semiconductor business represents its largest business segment and the
principal source of its revenues. The semiconductor market has historically been
cyclical and subject to significant economic downturns. After strong growth in
1999 and 2000, the semiconductor market declined significantly in 2001. Further
weakening or delayed recovery in the semiconductor market could adversely affect
TI's results of operations and have an adverse effect on the market price of its
securities. In particular, TI's strategic focus in this business is on the
development and marketing of digital signal processors and analog integrated
circuits. While TI believes that focusing its efforts on digital signal
processors and analog integrated circuits offers the best opportunity for TI to
achieve its strategic goals and that TI has developed, and will continue to
develop, a wide range of innovative and technologically advanced products, the
results of TI's operations may be adversely affected in the future if demand for
digital signal processors or analog integrated circuits decreases or if these
markets or key end-equipment markets such as telecommunications and computers
grow at a pace significantly less than that expected by management.
The Technology Industry is Characterized by Rapid Technological Change that
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Requires TI to Develop New Technologies and Products.
- ----------------------------------------------------
TI's results of operations depend in part upon its ability to successfully
develop, manufacture and market innovative products in a rapidly changing
technological environment. TI requires significant capital to develop new
technologies and products to meet changing customer demands that, in turn, may
result in shortened product lifecycles. Moreover, expenditures for technology
and product development are generally made before the commercial viability for
such developments can be assured. As a result, there can be no assurance that TI
will successfully develop and market these new products, that the products TI
does develop and market will be well received by customers or that TI will
realize a return on the capital expended to develop such products.
TI Faces Substantial Competition that Requires TI to Respond Rapidly to Product
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Development and Pricing Pressures.
- ---------------------------------
TI faces intense technological and pricing competition in the markets in which
it operates. TI expects that the level of this competition will increase in the
5
<PAGE>
future from large, established semiconductor and related product companies, as
well as from emerging companies serving niche markets also served by TI. Certain
of TI's competitors possess sufficient financial, technical and management
resources to develop and market products that may compete favorably against
those products of TI that currently offer technological and/or price advantages
over competitive products. Competition results in price and product development
pressures, which may result in reduced profit margins and lost business
opportunities in the event that TI is unable to match price declines or
technological, product, applications support, software or manufacturing advances
of its competitors.
TI's Performance Depends upon its Ability to Enforce Its Intellectual Property
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rights and to Develop or License New Intellectual Property.
- ----------------------------------------------------------
TI benefits from royalties generated from various license agreements that will
generally be in effect through the year 2005. Access to worldwide markets
depends on the continued strength of TI's intellectual property portfolio.
Future royalty revenue depends on the strength of TI's portfolio and enforcement
efforts, and on the sales and financial stability of TI's licensees. TI actively
enforces and protects its intellectual property rights, but there can be no
assurance that TI's efforts will be adequate to prevent the misappropriation or
improper use of the protected technology. Moreover, there can be no assurance
that, as TI's business expands into new areas, TI will be able to independently
develop the technology, software or know-how necessary to conduct its business
or that it can do so without infringing the intellectual property rights of
others. TI may have to rely increasingly on licensed technology from others. To
the extent that TI relies on licenses from others, there can be no assurance
that it will be able to obtain all of the licenses it desires in the future on
terms it considers reasonable or at all.
A Decline in Demand in Certain End-User Markets Could Have a Material Adverse
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Effect on the Demand for TI's Products and Results of Operations.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
TI's customer base includes companies in a wide range of industries, but TI
generates a significant amount of revenues from sales to customers in the
telecommunications and computer-related industries. Within these industries, a
large portion of TI revenues is generated by the sale of digital signal
processors and analog integrated circuits to customers in the cellular phone,
personal computer and communications infrastructure markets. Many of TI's
end-user markets declined significantly in 2001. Further decline in any one or
several of these end-user markets could have a material adverse effect on the
demand for TI's products and its results of operations.
TI's Global Manufacturing, Design and Sales Activities Subject It to Risks
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Associated with Legal, Political, Economic or Other Changes.
- -----------------------------------------------------------
TI operates in more than 25 countries worldwide and in 2001 more than 72% of its
revenues came from sales to locations outside the United States. Operating
internationally exposes TI to changes in the laws or policies, as well as the
6
<PAGE>
general economic conditions, security risks and possible disruptions in
transportation networks, of the various countries in which it operates, which
could result in an adverse effect on TI's business operations in such countries
and its results of operations. Also, as discussed in more detail on pages C-12
and C-37 of TI's proxy statement for the 2002 annual meeting of stockholders, TI
uses forward currency exchange contracts to minimize the adverse earnings impact
from the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on the company's non-U.S. dollar
net balance sheet exposures. Nevertheless, in periods when the U.S. dollar
strengthens in relation to the non-U.S. currencies in which TI transacts
business, the remeasurement of non-U.S. dollar transactions can have an adverse
effect on TI's non-U.S. business.
The Loss of or Significant Curtailment of Purchases by any of TI's Largest
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Customers Could Adversely Affect TI's Results of Operations.
- -----------------------------------------------------------
While TI generates revenues from thousands of customers worldwide, the loss of
or significant curtailment of purchases by one or more of its top customers,
including curtailments due to a change in the design or manufacturing sourcing
policies or practices of these customers, or the timing of customer inventory
adjustments may adversely affect TI's results of operations.
TI's Performance Depends on the Availability of Raw Materials and Critical
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Manufacturing Equipment.
- -----------------------
Limited or delayed access to key raw materials used in the manufacturing process
or critical manufacturing equipment could adversely impact TI's results of
operations.
TI's Continued Success Depends Upon Its Ability to Retain and Recruit a
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sufficient Number of Qualified Employees in a Competitive Environment.
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
TI's continued success depends on the retention and recruitment of skilled
personnel, including technical, marketing, management and staff personnel.
Experienced personnel in the electronics industry are in high demand and
competition for their skills is intense. There can be no assurance that TI will
be able to successfully retain and recruit the key personnel that it requires.

TI's facilities in the United States contained approximately 15,800,000 square
feet as of December 31, 2001, of which approximately 2,400,000 square feet were
leased. TI's facilities outside the United States contained approximately
5,900,000 square feet as of December 31, 2001, of which approximately 1,500,000
square feet were leased.
TI believes that its existing properties are in good condition and suitable for
the manufacture of its products. At the end of 2001, the company utilized
substantially all of the space in its facilities.
Leases covering TI's leased facilities expire at varying dates generally within
the next 10 years. TI anticipates no difficulty in either retaining occupancy
through lease renewals, month-to-month occupancy or purchases of leased
facilities, or replacing the leased facilities with equivalent facilities.

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

"Safe Harbor" Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995:
This report includes "forward-looking statements" intended to qualify for the
safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements generally can be identified
by phrases such as TI or its management "believes," "expects," "anticipates,"
"foresees," "forecasts," "estimates" or other words or phrases of similar
import. Similarly, statements herein that describe TI's business strategy,
outlook, objectives, plans, intentions or goals also are forward-looking
statements. All such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in
forward-looking statements.
We urge you to carefully consider the following important factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations of TI or its
management:
- - Market demand for semiconductors, particularly for digital signal
processors and analog chips in key markets, such as
telecommunications and computers.
- - TI's ability to develop, manufacture and market innovative products
in a rapidly changing technological environment.
- - TI's ability to compete in products and prices in an intensely competitive
industry.
- - TI's ability to maintain and enforce a strong intellectual property
portfolio and obtain needed licenses from third parties.
- - Timely completion and successful integration of announced acquisitions.
18
<PAGE>
- - Economic, social and political conditions in the countries in which TI, its
customers or its suppliers operate, including security risks, possible
disruptions in the transportation networks and fluctuations in foreign
currency exchange rates.
- - Losses or curtailments of purchases from key customers or the timing of
customer inventory adjustments.
- - TI's ability to recruit and retain skilled personnel.
- - Availability of raw materials and critical manufacturing equipment.
For a more detailed discussion of these factors see the text under the heading
"Cautionary Statements Regarding Future Results of Operations" in Item 1 of
this report. The forward-looking statements included in this report are made
only as of the date of this report and TI undertakes no obligation to update
the forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.

FOURTH AMENDMENT
TO RESTATED
TI DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN
TEXAS INSTRUMENTS INCORPORATED, a Delaware corporation with its principal
offices in Dallas, Texas (hereinafter referred to as "TI" or the "Company")
hereby adopts this Fourth Amendment to the restated TI Deferred Compensation
Plan (the "Plan").
This Fourth Amendment to the restated TI Deferred Compensation Plan shall
be effective as of the dates specified. Except as hereby amended by this Fourth
Amendment, the Plan, as previously amended, shall continue in full force and
effect.
1. Effective January 1, 1998, the definition appearing as Section 1-4, Benefit
Restoration Account, is amended to correct the cross reference therein from
"Section 3-4" to "Section 3-3."

entirety, to read as follows:
"Sec. 1-14. Election Period. "Election Period" means the one or more
periods determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, when
Participants may enter into new, or amend existing, Deferred
Compensation Agreements; provided that a Designated Employee may defer
Compensation pursuant to Section 3.2(iv) any time after being
designated for participation as a Designated Employee."
3. Effective April 1, 2001, Section 3-5 is amended and restated in the
entirety, to read as follows:
"Sec. 3-5. Withdrawal of Contributions During a Plan Year, a
Participant may withdraw funds credited to the Participant's Deferred
Compensation Account. A Participant who makes such an election shall
forfeit 10% of the amount withdrawn and the Participant's Deferred
Contribution Account shall be adjusted to reflect such forfeiture.
Withdrawals shall be made as soon as practicable after the

<PAGE>
4. Effective April 1, 2001, Section 3-11 is amended and restated in the
entirety, to read as follows:
"Sec. 3-11. Alternate Payee Claims. Any claim against any benefits
hereunder for child support, spousal maintenance, property settlement
or alimony (an "Alternate Payee Claim") shall be treated in the same
manner as would a claim for corresponding benefits under the U.S.
Retirement Plan or the Universal Plan, and shall be subject to all
claims provisions and restrictions of those plans; provided, however,
that the distribution of benefits hereunder in satisfaction of an
Alternate Payee Claim shall be made in a lump-sum payment as soon as
practicable after the determination of the validity of the claim. No
order issued pursuant to an Alternative Payee Claim may require
payment in any other form than a full lump sum distribution equal to
the present value (as determined by the Administrator) of the
Alternate Payee Claim. The Administrator may delegate the
administration of Alternate Payee Claims to the Administration
Committee under the U.S. Retirement Plan or the Universal Plan."
5. Effective April 1, 2001, Section 3-7 (iv) is amended by adding
the following clause at the end of the first sentence thereof:
" ; provided, however, that if the amount credited to the
Participant's Accounts at the time of the Participant's death is less
than $25,000, the entire amount credited to those Accounts shall
distributed in a single lump sum."
6. Effective January 1, 1998, Section 5-2 is hereby amended and
restated in the entirety, to read as follows:
"Sec. 5-2. Number and Selection. The Plan shall be administered by an
Administrator or Administrators appointed by the Compensation

services rendered in connection with the administration of this Plan."
7. Effective January 1, 1998, Section 5-4 is hereby amended by
addition of the following sentence at the end:
"The Administrator in its discretion shall determine whether, and to
what extent, Participant accounts will be charged with the expenses of

accounts shall be paid by TI."
8. Except as amended by this Fourth Amendment, the Company hereby ratifies
the Plan as last amended and restated in the entirety effective
January 1, 1998, and as amended thereafter.

efforts to obtain replacement policies from one or more other
financially-solvent insurance companies, to the extent the insurance
9

Company or Executive to pose an unacceptable risk of insolvency. However,
should Executive be unable to qualify to qualify for coverage under one or
more replacement policies needed to provide the benefits contemplated by
this Section 4.3.2, then Executive's entitlement to disability income
payments hereunder shall be reduced to the actual dollar amount of the
income payments provided by the remaining policies and shall be reduced to
zero if there are no remaining policies.
Executive shall look exclusively to the Company's Short-Term Disability
Income Plan and any long-term disability income policies maintained on his
behalf pursuant to this Section 4.3.2 for the payment of his disability
benefits hereunder, and the Company shall have no obligation to provide any
long-term disability income payments out of the Company's own funds and

beginning after December 31, 1999 by providing Executive with written notice of
such termination at least one hundred (180) days prior to the start of that

severance benefits to be reasonably agreed upon by the Company and
Executive on the basis of severance packages in effect for
similarly-situated chief executive officers in the industry.
If the Company elects to terminate this Agreement after a Change in Control
or Hostile Take-Over, then Executive shall, upon his termination of employment
within six (6) months after the effective date on which this Agreement is so
terminated, be treated as if his termination of employment were a termination by
the Company Without Cause, and all the provisions of Section 4.3 shall
accordingly apply to such termination of employment.

during the term of this Agreement shall incorporate the following terms and

shares as fully-vested shares upon a Change in Control in which that
Option is not assumed by the successor entity (or the parent company).
Any Option so assumed in a Change in Control shall subsequently become
exercisable for all the option shares as fully-vested shares if
Executive's employment is terminated within two (2) years after such
Change in Control either by the Company Without Cause or by Executive
in connection with a Constructive Termination.

shall not Compete or plan or prepare to Compete with the Company. To the extent

employment relationship with the Company.
3.1.4 SCOPE AND DURATION; SEVERABILITY. The Company and Executive
understand and agree that the scope and duration of the covenants contained in
this Section 3.1 are reasonable both in time and geographical area and are
fairly necessary to protect the business of the Company. Such covenants shall
survive the termination of Executive's employment, except that the Section 3.1.2
non-competition covenant shall remain in effect following such termination of
employment only to extent required pursuant to the provisions of ARTICLE FOUR.
It is further agreed that such covenants shall be regarded as divisible and
shall be operative as to time and geographical area to the extent that they may

not be affected.

<PAGE>
3.1.5 ASSIGNMENT. Except as otherwise provided to the contrary in ARTICLE

successor or assign.
3.2 CONSULTING AGREEMENT. Should Executive's employment terminate within
two (2) years following a Change in Control, then Executive shall make himself
available to perform, for a period not to exceed twelve (12) months following
such termination of employment, such consulting services for the Company within
his area of expertise as may from time to time be reasonably requested by the
Board, and the Company may not terminate the consulting arrangement during such
twelve (12)-month other than for Misconduct or breach by Executive of his
non-competition covenant under Section 3.1.2. However, Executive shall not be
required to perform more than ten (10) hours of consulting services per month
during the period of such consulting arrangement. Such consulting, agreement
shall not be applicable in the event Executive's employment terminates after a
Hostile Take-Over.

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

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

be that of a general creditor of the Company and will have no priority over the

may become entitled under this Agreement, then the payment of such benefits
shall be made, on the due date or dates hereunder had Executive survived, to his

vested Options, then each such Option may be exercised, during the applicable

to the Executive's will or in accordance with the laws of inheritance.
6.7. MISCELLANEOUS. The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and
interpreted under the laws of the State of Arizona. If any provision of this
Agreement as applied to any party or to any circumstance should be adjudged by a

TEXAS INSTRUMENTS
October 24, 2000
To: Mr. Syrus Madavi
Re: Letter Agreement
This letter confirms our agreement on the following matters with respect to your
employment with Texas Instruments Incorporated or any of its Subsidiaries
("Company").
Effective 1/1/01, you shall receive a base salary at an annual rate of $425,000,
payable in accordance with the applicable payroll practices and subject to
increases at the sole discretion of TI. You will be eligible to participate in
employee benefit plans generally provided to similarly situated employees in
accordance with the terms thereof from time to time. You will be entitled to and
shall abide by all applicable employment and personnel policies in effect from
time to time.
In recognition of both your continued employment for one year post-close of the
Burr-Brown acquisition, and your agreement to the competitive and
non-solicitation restrictions in your existing Change in Control Severance
Benefit Agreement dated October 30, 1996, the Company will pay you a Special
Payment. The Special Payment ("Special Payment") will be $3.5 million less
compensation paid to you or for your benefit (including base salary, profit
sharing and retirement plan contributions other than your salary deferral
contributions) with respect to the period 1/1/01 through 8/23/01. This Special
Payment will be paid to you in four (4) substantially equal installments payable
on 11/30/00, 2/28/01, 5/31/01 and 8/31/01. In the event you resign before one of
the payment dates listed above, you will not be eligible for the remaining
Special Payment(s). In case of Involuntary termination, however, all remaining
payments will become due and payable to you on the respective payment dates. The
amount of the fourth Special Payment installment may be estimated by the Company
in anticipation of your profit sharing entitlement for the period of 1/1 through
8/23 of year 2001. You agree to reimburse the Company for any overpayment of the
fourth Special Payment no later than 30 days after you are notified of any such
overpayment. The Company agrees to pay you for any underpayment of the Special
Payment no later than 3/31/02. The four Special Payment installments will not be
considered eligible earnings for purposes of TI profit sharing, 401 (k) and
other retirement benefits.
For the portion of the calendar year after August 24, 2001, you will be entitled
to receive a prorated bonus equal to at least 80% of the normal performance
bonus paid in cash to respect of such period to TI's 5th highest paid executive
officer, as will be reported in TI's 2002 proxy statement. This bonus will be
paid during the first quarter of 2002 provided you are employed by the Company
on the payment date. For example, if TI's 5th highest executive officer at the
end of 2001 earned a normal performance bonus of $100,000 for all of 2001, then
you will receive a bonus of at least $28,274 ($100,000 x.8 x 129/365).
For year 2002, you will be entitled to receive a bonus equal to at least 80% of
the normal performance bonus paid in crash in respect of such period to TI's 5th
highest paid executive officer, as will be reported In TI's 2003 proxy
statement. Should you terminate before 8/15/02, you will not be eligible to
receive such bonus. Should your employment be terminated after 8/15/02 but
before the end of the year, your bonus would be prorated to reflect 2002
calendar days employed. This bonus will be paid during the first quarter of
2003. Beginning 1/1/2003, you will be eligible, during your continued
employment, to participate in the Company's normal bonus programs as
commensurate with similarly situated employees.
<PAGE>
Upon your agreement to the terms of this letter, we will recommend to the
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of TI that you immediately be
awarded a non-qualified option under the Texas Instruments 2000 Long-Term
Incentive Plan (the "Plan") to purchase an aggregate of 250,000 shares of common
stock of TI, par value of $1.00 ("TI Stock'), at an exercise price equal to the
fair market value of TI Stock as of the date of grant. Each stock option shall
have a term of ten (10) years and shall vest 50% on 11/01/01 and 50% on 8/01/02,
provided you remain employed by the Company on each date. The vested portion of
such stock option shall be exercisable for the remainder of the full term
regardless of your termination of employment. The Company agrees that your
option agreement will not include any provisions requiring a repayment to the
company for any profit (spread between Option Price and market price of the TI
Stock on the date of exercise) realized from the exercising of such options. The
stock options will include a non-competition provision for the same period and
with respect to the same companies as set forth in the last paragraph of this
letter. The stock options granted pursuant to this paragraph shall be subject to
the remainder of the terms of the Plan. The stock options granted pursuant to
this paragraph will not fully vest upon your termination of employment as a
result of the change of control in connection with the Burr-Brown acquisition.
As a condition of continued employment with the Company, you shall promptly
execute and deliver to the Company an Employee Trade Secrets Information
Acknowledgement, an Assignment of Invention and Company Information Agreement, a
Release of Records and such other documents as TI reasonably may require from
time to time with respect to its new employees or similarly situated employees,
if you have not otherwise done so.
Effective beginning six months after August 24, 2000, should either you or the
Company terminate your employment, such termination will be considered Without
Cause for the purpose of severance calculation as outlined in your Change In
Control Severance Benefit Agreement. It is agreed that the options granted to
you by Burr-Brown, which remain unvested, will vest in full upon such
termination, given that such termination occurs on or before August 23, 2002.
For purposes of clarification. It is agreed that with regard to the acceleration
of vesting of options, any services performed as a consultant will not
constitute employment.
The Change In Control Severance Benefit Agreement dated October 30, 1996 Is
modified as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph. To the extent there
may be a conflict, the terms of this letter will govern. This letter, also,
supercedes and voids your June 20, 2000 letter agreement signed by Tom Engibous.
In addition to your obligations under the aforesaid severance agreement, you
agree not to provide services, directly or indirectly, as an employee or
otherwise for a period of one year following your termination of employment to
Analog Devices, Incorporated, Linear Technology Corporation & Maxim Integrated
Products, Incorporated.
Very truly yours,
TEXAS INSTRUMENTS INCORPORATED
