(a) The parties acknowledge and agree that some of the transfers contemplated by this Article 2 may not be effected on the Effective Date due to the inability of the parties to obtain necessary consents or approvals or the inability of the parties to take certain other actions necessary to effect such transfers on the Effective Date. To the extent any transfers contemplated by this Article 2 have not been fully effected on the Effective Date, Motorola and Freescale will cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts (and will cause the applicable members of its respective Group to use such efforts) to obtain any necessary consents or approvals or take any other actions necessary to effect such transfers as promptly as practicable following the Effective Date.

(b) Nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to require the transfer or assignment of any Contract or other Asset by Motorola or one of its Subsidiaries (an “Intended Transferor”) to Freescale or one of its Subsidiaries (an “Intended Transferee”) to the extent that such transfer or assignment would constitute a material breach of such Contract or cause forfeiture or loss of such Asset; provided, however, that even if such Contract or other Asset cannot be so transferred or assigned, such Contract or other Asset will be deemed a SPS Asset solely for purposes of determining whether any Liability is a SPS Liability.

(c) If an attempted assignment would be ineffective or would impair an Intended Transferee’s rights under any such SPS Asset so that the Intended Transferee would not receive all such rights, then the parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to, or cause to be provided to, the Intended Transferee, to the extent permitted by law, the rights of any such SPS Asset and take such other actions as may reasonably be requested by the other party in order to place the Intended Transferee, insofar as reasonably possible, in the same position as if such SPS Asset had been transferred as contemplated hereby. In connection therewith, (i) the Intended Transferor will promptly pass along to the Intended Transferee when received all benefits derived by the Intended Transferor with respect to any such SPS Asset, and (ii) the Intended Transferee will pay, perform and discharge on behalf of the Intended Transferor all of the Intended Transferor’s obligations with respect to any such SPS Asset in a timely manner and in accordance with the terms thereof which it may do without breach. If and when such consents or approvals are obtained or such other required actions have been taken, the transfer of the applicable SPS Asset will be effected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any applicable Ancillary Agreement.

Motorola will, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine the date of the consummation of the Distribution and all terms of the Distribution, including without limitation, the form, structure and terms of any transaction(s) and/or offering(s) to effect the Distribution and the timing of and conditions to the consummation of the Distribution. In addition, Motorola may, at any time and from time to time until the completion of the Distribution, modify or change the terms of the Distribution, including, without limitation, by accelerating or delaying the timing of the consummation of all or part of the Distribution. Freescale will cooperate with Motorola in all respects to accomplish the Distribution and will, at Motorola’s direction, promptly take any and all actions necessary or desirable to effect the Distribution, including, without limitation, to the extent necessary, the registration under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act of the Freescale Common Stock on an appropriate registration form or forms to be designated by Motorola. Motorola will select any investment banker(s) and manager(s) in connection with the Distribution, as well as any financial printer, solicitation and/or exchange agent and financial, legal, accounting and other advisors for Motorola, provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement will prohibit Freescale from engaging (at its own expense) its own financial, legal, accounting and other advisors in connection with the Distribution.

Section 4.2 Actions Prior to the Distribution. In connection with the Distribution, the parties will take the actions set forth in this Section 4.2.

Section 4.3 Conditions to Distribution. The consummation of the Distribution will be subject to the satisfaction, or waiver by Motorola in its sole and absolute discretion, of the conditions set forth in this Section 4.3. Any determination by Motorola regarding the satisfaction or waiver of any of such conditions will be conclusive. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that Motorola determines not to consummate the Distribution because one or more of such conditions is not satisfied or for any other reason, such determination by Motorola will not impact the effectiveness of the Contribution or the IPO.

(a) The receipt by Motorola, in form and substance satisfactory to it, of either, at its option and in its sole and absolute discretion, a ruling by the IRS or an opinion from its Tax Advisor regarding the Tax-Free Status and such other matters, as it will determine to be necessary or advisable in its sole and absolute discretion.

(b) The receipt of any governmental approvals and material consents necessary to consummate the Distribution, which approvals and consents will be in full force and effect.

opinion, and (iii) appropriate certificates from Freescale and/or Freescale’s senior management with respect to factual matters required by the advisors to render the opinions referenced in (i) and (ii).

Section 4.4 Certain Stockholder Matters.

(a) Subject to Section 4.3 hereof, on or prior to the Distribution Date, Motorola will deliver to a distribution agent to be appointed by Motorola (the “Distribution Agent”) for the benefit of holders of record of Motorola Common Stock on the Record Date, a single stock certificate, endorsed by Motorola in blank, representing all of the outstanding shares of Freescale Common Stock then owned by Motorola, and Motorola will instruct the Distribution Agent to deliver to the Freescale Transfer Agent true, correct and complete copies of the stock and transfer records reflecting the holders of Motorola Common Stock entitled to receive shares of Freescale Common Stock in connection with the Distribution. Motorola will cause its transfer agent to instruct the Distribution Agent to distribute on the Distribution Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter the appropriate number of shares of Freescale Common Stock to each such holder or designated transferee(s) of such holder. Motorola will cooperate, and will instruct the Distribution Agent to cooperate, with Freescale and the Freescale Transfer Agent, and Freescale will cooperate, and will instruct the Freescale Transfer Agent to cooperate, with Motorola and the Distribution Agent, in connection with all aspects of the Distribution and all other matters relating to the issuance and delivery of certificates representing, or other evidence of ownership of, the shares of Freescale Common Stock to be distributed to the holders of Motorola Common Stock in connection with the Distribution.

(b) Subject to Section 4.4(d), each holder of Motorola Common Stock on the Record Date (or such holder’s designated transferee(s)) will be entitled to receive in the Distribution a number of shares of Freescale Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Motorola Common Stock held by such holder on the Record Date, multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is the number of shares of Freescale Common Stock beneficially owned by Motorola or any other member of the Motorola Group on the Record Date, and (ii) the denominator of which is the number of Shares of Motorola Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date. In the event that the Distribution consists of more than one class of Freescale Common Stock, each holder of Motorola Common Stock will receive shares of Freescale Common Stock, calculated as provided above, except that the calculation will be performed separately for each such class of stock.

(c) Until such Freescale Common Stock is duly transferred in accordance with applicable law, Freescale will regard the Persons entitled to receive such Freescale Common Stock as record holders of Freescale Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the Distribution without requiring any action on the part of such Persons. Freescale agrees that, subject to any transfers of such stock, (i) each such holder will be entitled to receive all dividends payable on, and exercise voting rights and all other rights and privileges with respect to, the shares of Freescale Common Stock then held by such holder, and (ii) each such holder will be entitled, without any action on the part of such holder, to receive one or more certificates representing, or other evidence of ownership of, the shares of Freescale Common Stock then held by such holder.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.4, in the event that the Distribution is not made in the form of a pro rata distribution of Freescale Common Stock to holders of Motorola Common Stock, the above provisions of this Section 4.4 will not apply to the Distribution.

In addition, prior to the issuance of any such press release or public statement that meets the criteria set forth in the preceding two sentences, the issuing party will consult with the other party regarding any changes (other than typographical or other similar minor changes) to such substantially final drafts. Immediately following the issuance thereof, the issuing party will deliver to the other party copies of final drafts of all press releases and other public statements.

Freescale will provide such information in a timely manner on the dates requested by Motorola (which may be earlier than the dates on which Freescale otherwise would be required hereunder to have such information available) to enable Motorola to prepare, print and release all Motorola Public Filings on such dates as Motorola will determine but in no event later than as required by applicable law. Freescale will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause Freescale’s Auditors to consent to any reference to them as experts in any Motorola Public Filings required under any law, rule or regulation. If and to the extent requested by Motorola, Freescale will diligently and promptly review all drafts of such Motorola Public Filings and prepare in a diligent and timely fashion any portion of such Motorola Public Filing pertaining to Freescale. Prior to any printing or public release of any Motorola Public Filing, an appropriate executive officer of Freescale will, if requested by Motorola, certify that the information relating to any Freescale Group member or the SPS Business in such Motorola Public Filing is accurate, true, complete and correct in all material respects. Unless required by law, rule or regulation, Freescale will not publicly release any financial or other information which conflicts with the information with respect to any Freescale Group member or the SPS Business that is included in any Motorola Public Filing without Motorola’s prior written consent. Prior to the release or filing thereof, Motorola will provide Freescale with a draft of any portion of a Motorola Public Filing containing information relating to the Freescale Group and will give Freescale an opportunity to review such information and comment thereon; provided that Motorola will determine in its sole and absolute discretion the final form and content of all Motorola Public Filings.

(b) Auditors and Audits; Annual Statements and Accounting. Freescale agrees that, for so long as Motorola is required to consolidate Freescale’s results of operations and financial position or to account for its investment in Freescale under the equity method of accounting (in accordance with GAAP):

(i) Selection of Freescale Auditors. Unless required by law, Freescale will not select a different accounting firm than KPMG LLP (or its affiliate accounting firms) (unless so directed by Motorola in accordance with a change by Motorola in its accounting firm) to serve as its (and the Freescale Affiliates’) independent certified public accountants (“Freescale’s Auditors”) without Motorola’s prior written consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that, to the extent any such Freescale Affiliates are currently using a different accounting firm to serve as their independent certified public accountants, such Freescale Affiliates may continue to use such accounting firm provided such accounting firm is reasonably satisfactory to Motorola.

(ii) Audit Timing. Freescale will use its commercially reasonable efforts to enable Freescale’s Auditors to complete their audit such that they will date their opinion on the Annual Financial Statements on the same date that Motorola’s independent certified public accountants (“Motorola’s Auditors”) date their opinion on Motorola’s audited annual financial statements (the “Motorola Annual Statements”), and to enable Motorola to meet its timetable for the printing, filing and public dissemination of the Motorola Annual Statements, all in accordance with Section 5.1(a) hereof and as required by applicable law.

(iii) Information Needed by Motorola. Freescale will provide to Motorola on a timely basis all information that Motorola reasonably requires to meet its schedule for the preparation,

printing, filing, and public dissemination of the Motorola Annual Statements in accordance with Section 5.1(a) hereof and as required by applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Freescale will provide all required financial information with respect to the Freescale Group to Freescale’s Auditors in a sufficient and reasonable time and in sufficient detail to permit Freescale’s Auditors to take all steps and perform all reviews necessary to provide sufficient assistance to Motorola’s Auditors with respect to information to be included or contained in the Motorola Annual Statements.

(iv) Access to Freescale Auditors. Freescale will authorize Freescale’s Auditors to make available to Motorola’s Auditors both the personnel who performed, or are performing, the annual audit of Freescale and work papers related to the annual audit of Freescale, in all cases within a reasonable time prior to Freescale’s Auditors’ opinion date, so that Motorola’s Auditors are able to perform the procedures they consider necessary to take responsibility for the work of Freescale’s Auditors as it relates to Motorola’s Auditors’ report on Motorola’s statements, all within sufficient time to enable Motorola to meet its timetable for the printing, filing and public dissemination of the Motorola Annual Statements.

(v) Access to Records. If Motorola determines in good faith that there may be some inaccuracy in a Freescale Group member’s financial statements or deficiency in a Freescale Group member’s internal accounting controls or operations that could materially impact Motorola’s financial statements, at Motorola’s request, Freescale will provide Motorola’s internal auditors with access to the Freescale Group’s books and records so that Motorola may conduct reasonable audits relating to the financial statements provided by Freescale under this Agreement as well as to the internal accounting controls and operations of the Freescale Group.

(vi) Notice of Changes. Subject to Section 5.1(a)(vii), Freescale will give Motorola as much prior notice as reasonably practicable of any proposed determination of, or any significant changes in, Freescale’s accounting estimates or accounting principles from those in effect on the Effective Date. Freescale will consult with Motorola and, if requested by Motorola, Freescale will consult with Motorola’s Auditors with respect thereto. Freescale will not make any such determination or changes without Motorola’s prior written consent if such a determination or a change would be sufficiently material to be required to be disclosed in Freescale’s or Motorola’s financial statements as filed with the SEC or otherwise publicly disclosed therein.

(vii) Accounting Changes Requested by Motorola. Notwithstanding clause (vi) above, Freescale will make any changes in its accounting estimates or accounting principles that are requested by Motorola in order for Freescale’s accounting practices and principles to be consistent with those of Motorola.

(viii) Special Reports of Deficiencies or Violations. Freescale will report in reasonable detail to Motorola the following events or circumstances promptly after any executive officer of Freescale or any member of the Freescale Board of Directors becomes aware of such matter: (A) all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect Freescale’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information; (B) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in Freescale’s internal control over financial reporting; (C) any illegal act within the meaning of Section 10A(b) and (f) of the Exchange Act; and (D) any report of a material violation of law that an attorney representing any Freescale Group member has formally made to any officers or directors of Freescale pursuant to the SEC’s attorney conduct rules (17 C.F.R. Part 205).

Section 5.2 Other Covenants. In addition to the other covenants contained in this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, Freescale hereby covenants and agrees that, for so long as Motorola beneficially owns at least fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power of all classes of then outstanding capital stock of Freescale entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (“Freescale Voting Stock”):

(a) Freescale will not, without the prior written consent of Motorola (which Motorola may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion), take, or cause to be taken, directly or indirectly, any action, including making or failing to make any election under the law of any state, which has the effect, directly or indirectly, of restricting or limiting the ability of Motorola to freely sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of shares of Freescale Common Stock or would restrict or limit the rights of any transferee of Motorola as a holder of Freescale Common Stock. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Freescale will not, without the prior written consent of Motorola (which Motorola may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion), take any action, or take any action to recommend to its stockholders any action, which would among other things, limit the legal rights of, or deny any benefit to, Motorola as a Freescale stockholder either (i) solely as a result of the amount of Common Stock owned by Motorola or (ii) in a manner not applicable to Freescale stockholders generally.

(b) Freescale will not, without the prior written consent of Motorola (which it may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion), issue any shares of Freescale Capital Stock or any rights, warrants or options to acquire Freescale Capital Stock (including, without limitation, securities convertible into or exchangeable for Freescale Capital Stock), if after giving effect to such issuances and considering all of the shares of Freescale Capital Stock acquirable pursuant to such rights, warrants and options to be outstanding on the date of such issuance (whether or not then exercisable), Motorola would own less than fifty percent (50%) of the Freescale Voting Stock.

(c) To the extent that Motorola is a party to any Contracts that provide that certain actions or inactions of Motorola Affiliates (which for purposes of such Contract includes any member of the Freescale Group) may result in Motorola being in breach of or in default under such Contracts and Motorola has advised Freescale of the existence, and has furnished Freescale with copies, of such Contracts (or the relevant portions thereof), Freescale will not take or fail to take, as applicable, and Freescale will cause the other members of the Freescale Group not to take or fail to take, as applicable, any actions that reasonably could result in Motorola being in breach of or in default under any such Contract. The parties acknowledge and agree that from time to time Motorola may in good faith (and not solely with the intention of imposing restrictions on Freescale pursuant to this covenant) enter into additional Contracts or amendments to existing Contracts that provide that certain actions or inactions of Motorola Subsidiaries or Affiliates (including, for purposes of this Section 5.2(c), members of the Freescale Group) may result in Motorola being in breach of or in default under such Contracts. In such event, provided Motorola has notified Freescale of such additional Contracts or amendments to existing Contracts, Freescale will not thereafter take or fail to take, as applicable, and Freescale will cause the other members of the Freescale Group not to take or fail to take, as applicable, any actions that reasonably could result in Motorola being in breach of or in default under any such additional Contracts or amendments to existing Contracts. Motorola acknowledges and agrees that Freescale will not be deemed in breach of this Section 5.2(c) to the extent that, prior to being notified by Motorola of an additional Contract or an amendment to an existing Contract pursuant to this Section 5.2(c), a Freescale Group member already has taken or failed to take one or more actions that would otherwise constitute a breach of this Section 5.2(c) had such action(s) or inaction(s) occurred after such notification, provided that Freescale does not, after notification by Motorola, take any further action or fail to take any action that contributes further to such breach or default. Freescale agrees that any Information provided to it pursuant to this Section 5.2(c) will constitute Information that is subject to Freescale’s obligations under Article 6.

Section 5.3 Covenants Regarding the Incurrence of Indebtedness.

(a) Freescale covenants and agrees that prior to the consummation of the IPO, Freescale will not, and Freescale will not permit any other member of the Freescale Group to, without Motorola’s prior written consent (which Motorola may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion), directly or indirectly, solicit, initiate or encourage any negotiations or discussions with respect to any offer or proposal for Freescale Indebtedness, other than for (i) the Freescale High Yield Notes and (ii) the Freescale Bank Facilities.

(b) Freescale covenants and agrees, that, notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, prior to the consummation of the IPO, Freescale will not, and Freescale will not permit any other member of the Freescale Group to, without Motorola’s prior written consent (which Motorola may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion), directly or indirectly, incur any Freescale Indebtedness (other than Inter-Group Indebtedness). Freescale covenants and agrees that after the consummation of the IPO and through the Distribution Date, Freescale will not, and Freescale will not permit any other member of the Freescale Group to, without Motorola’s prior written consent (which Motorola may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion), directly or indirectly, incur any Freescale Indebtedness other than in accordance with the terms of the Freescale High Yield Notes and the Freescale Bank Facilities.

(c) Freescale hereby covenants and agrees that, for so long as Freescale constitutes a “Subsidiary” as such term is defined in the Motorola Credit Agreement, Freescale will not, and Freescale will not permit any other member of the Freescale Group to, without Motorola’s prior written consent (which Motorola may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion), create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Freescale Indebtedness if the incurrence of such Freescale Indebtedness would cause Motorola to be in breach of or in default under any Contract the existence of which Motorola has advised Freescale and of which Motorola has furnished Freescale a copy pursuant to Section 5.2(c), or if the incurrence of such Freescale Indebtedness could be reasonably likely to adversely impact the credit rating of any commercial Motorola indebtedness.

(d) In order to implement this Section 5.3, Freescale will notify Motorola in writing at least forty-five (45) Business Days prior to the time it or any other member of the Freescale Group contemplates incurring any Freescale Indebtedness of its intention to do so and will either (i) demonstrate to Motorola’s satisfaction that this Section 5.3 will not be violated by such proposed additional Freescale Indebtedness or (ii) obtain Motorola’s prior written consent to the incurrence of such proposed additional Freescale Indebtedness. Any such written notification from Freescale to Motorola will include documentation of any existing Freescale Indebtedness and estimated Freescale Indebtedness after giving effect to such proposed incurrence of additional Freescale Indebtedness. Motorola will have the right to verify the accuracy of such information and Freescale will cooperate fully with Motorola in such effort (including, without limitation, by providing Motorola with access to the working papers and underlying documentation related to any calculations used in determining such information).

ARTICLE 6

ACCESS TO INFORMATION

Section 6.1 Restrictions on Disclosure of Information.

(a) Generally. Without limiting any rights or obligations under any other existing or future agreement between the parties and/or any other members of their respective Group relating to confidentiality, for five (5) years after the Effective Date each party will, and each party will cause its respective Group members and its Representatives to, hold in strict confidence, with at least the same

degree of care that applies to Motorola’s confidential and proprietary Information pursuant to policies in effect as of the Effective Date, all confidential and proprietary Information concerning the other Group that is either in its possession as of the Effective Date or furnished by the other Group or its respective Representatives at any time pursuant to this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party, its respective Group members and its Representatives, may disclose such Information to the extent that such party can demonstrate that such Information is or was (i) in the public domain other than by the breach of this Agreement or by breach of any other agreement between or among the parties and/or any of their respective Group members relating to confidentiality, or (ii) lawfully acquired from a third Person on a non-confidential basis or independently developed by, or on behalf of, such party by Persons who do not have access to, or descriptions of, any such Information. Each party will maintain, and will cause its respective Group members and Representatives to maintain, policies and procedures, and develop such further policies and procedures as will from time to time become necessary or appropriate, to ensure compliance with this Section 6.1.

(b) Disclosure of Third Person Information. Freescale acknowledges that it and other members of the Freescale Group may have in its or their possession confidential or proprietary Information of third Persons that was received under confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement with such third Person while part of Motorola. Freescale will, and Freescale will cause its respective Group members and its Representatives to, hold in strict confidence the confidential and proprietary Information of third Persons to which any member of the Freescale Group has access, in accordance with the terms of any agreements entered into prior to the Effective Date between members of the Motorola Group (whether acting through, on behalf of, or in connection with, the SPS Business) and such third Persons.

Section 6.2 Legally Required Disclosure of Information. If either party or any of its respective Group members or Representatives becomes legally required to disclose any Information (the “Disclosing Party”) that it is otherwise obligated to hold strict confidence pursuant to Section 6.1, such party will promptly notify the Person that owns the Information (the “Owning Party”) and will use all commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Owning Party so that the Owning Party may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with this Section 6.2. All expenses reasonably incurred by the Disclosing Party in seeking a protective order or other remedy will be borne by the Owning Party. If such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or if the Owning Party waives compliance with this Section 6.2, the Disclosing Party will (a) disclose only that portion of the Information which its legal counsel advises it is compelled to disclose or otherwise stand liable for contempt or suffer other similar significant corporate censure or penalty, (b) use all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance requested by the Owning Party that confidential treatment will be accorded such Information, and (c) promptly provide the Owning Party with a copy of the Information so disclosed, in the same form and format so disclosed, together with a list of all Persons to whom such Information was disclosed.

Section 6.3 Access to Information. During the Retention Period (as defined in Section 6.4 below), each party will cooperate with and afford, and will cause its respective Group members and Representatives to cooperate with and afford, to the other party reasonable access upon reasonable advance written request to all Information (other than Information which is (a) protected from disclosure by the attorney-client privilege or work product doctrine, (b) proprietary in nature, (c) the subject of a confidentiality agreement between such party and a third Person which prohibits disclosure to the other party, or (d) prohibited from disclosure under applicable law) owned by such party or one of its Group members or within such party’s or any of its respective Group member’s or Representative’s possession which is created prior to the Distribution Date and which relates to the requesting party’s (the “Requestor”) business, assets or liabilities, and such access is reasonably required by the Requestor (i) to comply with requirements imposed on the Requestor by any governmental authority, (ii) for use in any

proceeding (except for a litigation matter between the parties or any of their respective Group members), (iii) to satisfy audit, accounting, Tax or similar requirements, (iv) to obtain insurance, or (v) to comply with the Requestor’s obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement. As used in this Agreement, “access” will mean the obligation of a party in possession of Information (the “Possessor”) requested by the Requestor to exert its commercially reasonable efforts to locate all requested Information that is owned and/or possessed by Possessor or any respective Group members or Representatives. The Possessor, at its own expense, will conduct a diligent search designed to identify all requested Information and will collect all such Information for inspection by the Requestor during normal business hours at the Possessor’s place of business. Subject to such confidentiality and/or security obligations as the Possessor may reasonably deem necessary, the Requestor may have all requested Information duplicated at Requestor’s expense. Alternatively, the Possessor may choose to deliver, at the Requestor’s expense, all requested Information to the Requestor in the form requested by the Requestor. The Possessor will notify the Requestor in writing at the time of delivery if such Information is to be returned to the Possessor. In such case, the Requestor will return such Information when no longer needed to the Possessor at the Possessor’s expense. In connection with providing Information pursuant to this Section 6.3, each party hereto will, upon the request of the other party and upon reasonable advance notice, make available during normal business hours its respective employees (and those employees of its respective Group members and Representatives, as applicable) to the extent that they are reasonably necessary to discuss and explain all requested Information with and to the Requestor.

Section 6.4 Record Retention. Freescale will, and Freescale will cause each of the other Freescale Group members to, adopt and comply with a record retention policy with respect to Information owned by or in the possession of the Freescale Group and which is created prior to the Distribution Date that is no less stringent than Motorola’s record retention policy in effect as of the Effective Date or as Motorola may modify such policy during the three (3) year period subsequent to the Distribution Date, provided that Motorola notifies Freescale of any such modifications. Each party will, at its sole cost and expense, preserve and retain all Information in its respective possession or control that the other party has the right to access pursuant to Section 6.3 or that it is required to preserve and retain in accordance with such record retention policy or for any longer period as may be required by (a) any government agency, (b) any litigation matter, (c) applicable law, or (d) any Ancillary Agreement (as applicable, the “Retention Period”). If either party wishes to dispose of any Information which it is obligated to retain under this Section 6.4 prior to the expiration of the Retention Period, then that party will first provide forty-five (45) days’ written notice to the other party, and the other party will have the right, at its option but at the expense of the party that desires to dispose of such Information, upon prior written notice within such 45-day period, to take possession of such Information within ninety (90) days after the date of the notice provided pursuant to this Section 6.4. Written notice of intent to dispose of such Information will include a description of the Information in detail sufficient to allow the other party to reasonably assess its potential need to retain such materials.

Section 6.5 Production of Witnesses. For no less than seven (7) years after the Effective Date, each party will use commercially reasonable efforts, and will cause each of its respective Group members to use commercially reasonable efforts, to make available to each other, upon written request, its past and present Representatives as witnesses to the extent that any such Representatives may reasonably be required (giving consideration to the business demands upon such Representatives) in connection with any legal, administrative or other proceedings in which the requesting party may from time to time be involved.

Section 6.6 Reimbursement. Unless otherwise provided in this Article 6, each party providing access to Information or witnesses to the other party pursuant to Sections 6.3, 6.4 or 6.5 will be entitled to receive from the receiving party, upon the presentation of invoices therefor, payment for all

reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses (excluding allocated compensation, salary and overhead expenses) as may be reasonably incurred in providing such Information or witnesses.

Section 6.7 Other Agreements Regarding Access to Information. The rights and obligations of the parties under this Article 6 are subject to any specific limitations, qualifications or additional provisions on the sharing, exchange or confidential treatment of Information set forth in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

Section 6.8 Acquisition of Freescale by another Person. In the event Freescale enters into an agreement with a third Person to sell all or any portion of the SPS Business, together with the Information related thereto, whether pursuant to a stock or asset sale, merger or otherwise, Motorola will have the right to duplicate prior to any such disposition any Information held by Freescale that relates to either (a) the SPS Business as conducted through the Distribution Date (or the date of the disposition to such third Person if the Distribution has not occurred), or (b) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Freescale covenants and agrees in connection with any such disposition (x) to provide Motorola not less than sixty (60) days’ written notice prior to the consummation of such disposition, and (y) not to disclose any Information of Motorola or relating to the Motorola Business to such third Person without Motorola’s express written consent which may be withheld in Motorola’s sole discretion. In addition, Motorola will have the right, in its sole discretion, to require Freescale to destroy or return to Motorola all or any portion of such Information prior to such disposition. Freescale covenants and agrees that it will not sell all or any portion of the SPS Business to any third Person unless such third Person expressly agrees in writing to be bound by all of Freescale’s obligations under this Section 6.8. In the event Motorola enters into an agreement with a third Person to sell all or any portion of the Motorola Business, Motorola covenants and agrees in connection with any such disposition not to disclose any Information of Freescale or relating to the SPS Business to such third Person without Freescale’s express written consent which may be withheld in Freescale’s sole discretion.

Section 6.9 Iridium Data Retention and Access. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 6, Freescale acknowledges that some Information may include Iridium Data and/or may relate to Iridium Claims. Freescale further agrees and acknowledges as follows: (a) the Iridium Data will be retained and preserved and will not be removed, modified, altered or destroyed; provided that, should such Iridium Data inadvertently be removed, modified, altered or destroyed, Freescale agrees to provide prompt written notice to Motorola, which will be provided within two (2) business days of learning of the removal, modification, alteration or destruction and will include details of same; and (b) Motorola may need access to the Iridium Data in the future, including the right to copy, retrieve and/or remove the Iridium Data for purposes of defending against the Iridium Claims. Freescale agrees to give Motorola reasonable access to the Iridium Data upon reasonable advance written notice, and the right to copy, retrieve and/or remove such Iridium Data at Motorola’s cost and expense.

Section 6.10 Iridium Claims: Cooperation. In addition to the provisions of Section 6.9, Freescale agrees that it will: (a) fully cooperate in connection with Motorola’s defense of the Iridium Claims; and (b) make available during normal business hours its Representatives (and the Representatives of its respective Group members, as applicable) to the extent reasonably necessary to discuss and explain all requested Iridium Data with and to Motorola or its Representatives.

In addition to the Ancillary Agreements, the parties agree to execute, or cause to be executed by their appropriate Group members or Representatives, and deliver, as appropriate, such other agreements, instruments and documents as may be necessary or desirable in order

to effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. At the request of Freescale, Motorola will execute and deliver, and will cause applicable members of the Motorola Group to execute and deliver, to Freescale and/or applicable members of the Freescale Group such other instruments of transfer, conveyance, assignment, substitution and confirmation and take such other actions as Freescale may reasonably deem necessary or desirable in order (a) to transfer, convey and assign to Freescale and the other members of the Freescale Group, as applicable, the SPS Assets, (b) to put Freescale and the other members of the Freescale Group, as applicable, in actual possession and operating control thereof, and (c) to permit Freescale and the other members of the Freescale Group, as applicable, to exercise all rights with respect thereto. At the request of Motorola, Freescale will execute and deliver, and will cause applicable members of the Freescale Group to execute and deliver, to Motorola and/or applicable members of the Motorola Group all instruments, assumptions, novations, undertakings, substitutions or other documents and take such other action as Motorola may reasonably deem necessary or desirable in order to ensure that Freescale and the other members of the Freescale Group fully and unconditionally assume and discharge the SPS Liabilities as contemplated under this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or any document in connection herewith or therewith, and relieve the Motorola Group of any Liability with respect thereto and evidence the same to third Persons. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, no member of the Motorola Group will be obligated to incur any out-of-pocket costs, expenses and fees in connection with its obligations under this Section 7.1, including, without limitation, any attorneys’ fees, recording, assignment or other similar fees.

Section 7.2 Performance. Motorola will cause to be performed, and hereby guarantees the performance of, all actions, agreements and obligations set forth in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement to be performed by any member of the Motorola Group. Freescale will cause to be performed, and hereby guarantees the performance of, all actions, agreements and obligations set forth in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement to be performed by any member of the Freescale Group. Each party further agrees that it will cause its other Group members not to take any action or fail to take any action inconsistent with such party’s obligations under this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

Freescale will cause to be performed and hereby guarantees the performance of all actions, agreements and obligations related to remediation at what are commonly known as the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇ Drive Arizona State Superfund site, the Motorola ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Superfund site and the Mesa Arizona Voluntary Remediation Program site in accordance with applicable Environmental Laws and plans approved by the responsible governmental agency, and in a manner consistent with the performance of the same by Motorola’s Semiconductor Products Sector prior to the Effective Date. Further, Freescale agrees to use reasonable efforts to obtain letters, orders or other available means to provide Motorola with the same benefit of an agency’s completion determination or finding that no further action is necessary as Freescale will receive upon completion of the same.

Section 7.4 Existing Litigation Matters. Freescale agrees that the Existing IP Litigation Matters constitute pre-existing Third Party Claims, as that term is defined below in Section 8.3(d)(i), which were initiated prior to the Effective Date and for which proper notice has been given, and Freescale hereby expressly assumes control of such Existing IP Litigation Matters pursuant to Section 8.3(d)(i) as the Indemnifying Party. The parties further agree that the Existing IP Litigation Matters will remain and be treated as Third Party Claims after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Intellectual Property License Agreement, Freescale agrees to indemnify Motorola for the Existing IP Litigation Matters pursuant to the terms of indemnification set forth below in Article 8 for any and all Damages incurred or suffered by Motorola whether such Damages arise or accrue prior to, on or following the Effective Date. Motorola agrees that the outside legal counsel currently retained by Freescale in the Existing IP Litigation Matters may continue to represent the interests of both Freescale

and Motorola, subject to Motorola’s rights pursuant to Section 8.3(d)(ii) and Section 8.3(d)(iii) below. Motorola further agrees that it will cooperate and assist Freescale in preserving and enforcing any third Person intellectual property indemnification protection rights available to Motorola in connection with the Existing IP Litigation Matters.

Section 7.5 Insurance Matters.

(a) Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance. Freescale and its Covered Subsidiaries, and each of their directors and officers will be covered under Motorola’s current directors’ and officers’ insurance program until its expiration on July 1, 2004. Freescale will promptly pay or reimburse Motorola, as the case may be, for all costs and expenses associated with this coverage that are allocated by Motorola to Freescale and its Covered Subsidiaries in accordance with Motorola’s practice with respect to the SPS Business as of the Effective Date. Freescale, its Covered Subsidiaries and each of their directors and officers may review said policies upon request. In addition, Motorola will continue to provide such coverage to Freescale and its Covered Subsidiaries, and each of their directors and officers in connection with any extension of Motorola’s current directors’ and officers’ insurance program or under any new director’s and officers’ insurance program when Motorola’s current program expires on July 1, 2004. Freescale will reimburse Motorola for any incremental costs or expenses incurred by Motorola in connection with covering Freescale and its Covered Subsidiaries, and each of their directors and officers under any new insurance program or extension of the current insurance program that Motorola determines, in the exercise of its reasonable discretion, to be attributable to the coverage for Freescale, its Covered Subsidiaries or any of their directors or officers. Freescale acknowledges that such directors’ and officers’ insurance coverage will terminate as of the Distribution Date, and Freescale covenants and agrees that it will take appropriate steps to secure directors’ and officers’ insurance coverage for itself, its Subsidiaries and each of their directors and officers as of the Distribution Date.

(b) TCS Insurance. Prior to the Effective Date, TCS Insurance Company of Ireland, Ltd. (“TCS”) has provided insurance coverage for assets and/or entities that will become part of the Freescale Group as of the Effective Date. Motorola will cause TCS to continue to provide insurance to Freescale and its Covered Subsidiaries between the Effective Date and the Distribution Date that is comparable to that maintained generally for Motorola and its Covered Subsidiaries during the same period, subject to insurance market conditions and other factors beyond Motorola’s or TCS’s reasonable control. Freescale will pay Motorola for all costs and expenses associated with the provision of such TCS insurance to Freescale and its Covered Subsidiaries in accordance with Motorola’s practice with respect to the SPS Business as of the Effective Date. From and after the Distribution Date, TCS will provide no further insurance to Freescale or any member of the Freescale Group.

(c) Other Insurance. Except as set forth in Section 7.5(a) with respect to directors’ and officers’ insurance and Section 7.5(b) with respect to TCS insurance, during the period from the Effective Date through the Distribution Date, Motorola will, subject to insurance market conditions and other factors beyond Motorola’s reasonable control, maintain, for the protection of Freescale and its Covered Subsidiaries, policies of insurance that are comparable to those maintained generally for Motorola and its Covered Subsidiaries during the same period. Freescale will promptly pay or reimburse Motorola, as the case may be, for all costs and expenses associated therewith that are allocated by Motorola to Freescale and its Covered Subsidiaries in accordance with (i) Motorola’s practice with respect to the SPS Business as of the Effective Date, or (ii) the terms of the Transition Services Agreement, as applicable. To the extent Motorola purchases a new type of insurance, or an amount or level of insurance not previously purchased by Motorola in order to protect, at least in part, Freescale or any of its Covered Subsidiaries, that portion of the costs and expenses of such insurance attributable to Freescale or any of its Covered Subsidiaries, as determined in Motorola’s sole discretion, shall be reimbursed by Freescale.

(d) Payments and Reimbursements. All payments and reimbursements by Freescale pursuant to this Section 7.5 will be made within thirty (30) days after Freescale’s receipt of an invoice therefor from Motorola.

(e) Changes in Costs or Expenses. The costs and expenses for which Freescale is obligated to pay or reimburse Motorola pursuant to this Section 7.5 will be based on Motorola’s current insurance costs and expenses as of the Effective Date and will be appropriately adjusted as a result of any changes in those costs and expenses after the Effective Date, although the methodology upon which such costs and expenses is based will remain the same.

(f) Notification of Changes. Motorola agrees to provide Freescale not less than sixty (60) days advance written notice in the event it elects (or any of its insurers notifies Motorola in writing of such insurer’s election) to cancel or effect any non-administrative modification of the terms and conditions of any Motorola insurance policy that provides coverage to Freescale or any of its Covered Subsidiaries, which notice will include the anticipated date of cancellation or a description of such modification, as applicable.

(g) Historical Loss Data. For no less than seven (7) years after the Effective Date, Motorola will use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to Freescale, upon written request, historical insurance loss Information relating to the SPS Business and any other Information relating to Motorola’s historic insurance program with respect to the SPS Business. Any such Information provided to Freescale pursuant to this provision will also be subject to the provisions of Section 6.3.

(h) Post Distribution Date. Freescale acknowledges and agrees that from and after the Distribution Date (i) no member of the Motorola Group will purchase or maintain, or cause to be purchased or maintained, any insurance policy for the protection of Freescale, its Covered Subsidiaries, any member of the Freescale Group or any of their respective directors and officers, and (ii) the Freescale Group (including Freescale and its Covered Subsidiaries) will purchase insurance coverage sufficient to protect its interests.

Section 7.6 Export Control Compliance. Freescale agrees not to, and Freescale will cause each other member of the Freescale Group not to, export, re-export or otherwise transfer any commodities or technology received from any member of the Motorola Group in connection with the Contribution or otherwise, except in accordance with applicable export control regulations, including, without limitation, the applicable export control regulations of the United States. This Section 7.6 will survive termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever.

Section 7.7 Conduct of SPS Business between Effective Date and the IPO Settlement Date. From the Effective Date through the IPO Settlement Date, Freescale will (and Freescale will cause each of the other Freescale Group members to) conduct its operations in the Ordinary Course of Business. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, prior to the IPO Settlement Date, Freescale will not (and Freescale will cause each of the other Freescale Group members not to), without the written consent of Motorola, which consent may be withheld in Motorola’s sole discretion, take any action outside the Ordinary Course of Business, including, without limitation: (a) the incurrence of any capital expenditures or Liabilities not previously approved by Motorola prior to the Effective Date; (b) the acquisition of any businesses or other Assets, by means of merger, consolidation or otherwise; (c) any action that would result in the acceleration of payment of any account payable or delay in the creation or collection of any account receivable; or (d) any loans, advances or capital contributions to, or investments in, any other Person (other than members of the Freescale Group).

Section 7.8 Conduct of SPS Business between IPO Settlement Date and Distribution Date. Subject to any additional restrictions in the Tax Sharing Agreement, during the period from the IPO Settlement Date through the Distribution Date, Freescale covenants and agrees that the Freescale Group as a whole will not, without Motorola’s prior written consent (which Motorola may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion): (a) acquire any businesses or other Assets, by means of merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any other Person, with an aggregate value of more than $100 million for all such acquisitions, (b) dispose of Assets held by the Freescale Group, by sale or otherwise, with an aggregate value of more than $100 million for all such dispositions, or (c) acquire any equity or debt securities of any other Person, with an aggregate value of more than $50 million for all such acquisitions.

ARTICLE 8

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1 Indemnification by Freescale Group. Subject to the provisions hereof, Freescale will, and Freescale will cause any member of the Freescale Group that receives any SPS Asset or assumes any SPS Liability pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (and each of their respective successors and assigns) to, jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless Motorola, each member of the Motorola Group, each of their respective past and present Representatives, and each of their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Motorola Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Damages incurred or suffered by the Motorola Indemnified Parties arising or resulting from the following, whether such Damages arise or accrue prior to, on or following the Effective Date:

(a) The failure of Freescale or any other member of the Freescale Group or any other Person to pay, perform or otherwise properly discharge any of the SPS Liabilities in accordance with their respective terms;

(b) The SPS Business or any SPS Liability, including without limitation, any Liabilities arising out of or relating to the Existing IP Litigation Matters;

(d) Any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, with respect to all information contained in, or incorporated by reference into, the IPO Registration Statement and any other documents filed with the SEC in connection with the IPO or the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, other than with respect to the Motorola Disclosure Portions.

Section 8.2 Indemnification by Motorola Group. Subject to the provisions hereof, Motorola will, and Motorola will cause any member of the Motorola Group that transfers any SPS Asset pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (and each of their respective successors and assigns) to, jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless each member of the Freescale Group, each of their respective past and present Representatives, and each of their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Freescale Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Damages incurred or suffered by the Freescale Indemnified Parties arising or resulting from the following:

(a) The failure of Motorola or any other member of the Motorola Group or any other Person to pay, perform or otherwise properly discharge any of the Motorola Liabilities in accordance with their respective terms;

(b) The Motorola Business or the Motorola Liabilities; and

Section 8.3 Claim Procedure.

(a) Claim Notice. A party that seeks indemnity under this Article 8 (an “Indemnified Party”) will give written notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the party from whom indemnification is sought (an “Indemnifying Party”), whether the Damages sought arise from matters solely between the parties or from Third Party Claims. The Claim Notice must contain (i) a description and, if known, estimated amount (the “Claimed Amount”) of any Damages incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by the Indemnified Party, (ii) a reasonable explanation of the basis for the Claim Notice to the extent of facts then known by the Indemnified Party, and (iii) a demand for payment of those Damages. No delay or deficiency on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party of any Liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any Damages caused by or arising out of such failure.

(b) Response to Notice of Claim. Within thirty (30) days after delivery of a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party will deliver to the Indemnified Party a written response in which the Indemnifying Party will either: (i) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount and, in which case, the Indemnifying Party will pay the Claimed Amount in accordance with a payment and distribution method reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party; or (ii) dispute that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all or any portion of the Claimed Amount, in which case, the parties will resort to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 9.3.

(c) Contested Claims. In the event that the Indemnifying Party disputes the Claimed Amount, as soon as practicable but in no event later than ten (10) days after the receipt of the notice referenced in Section 8.3(b)(ii) hereof, the parties will begin the process to resolve the matter in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions of Section 9.3 hereof. Upon ultimate resolution thereof, the parties will take such actions as are reasonably necessary to comply with such agreement or instructions.

(d) Third Party Claims.

(i) In the event that the Indemnified Party receives notice or otherwise learns of the assertion by a Person who is not a member of either Group of any claim or the commencement of any Action (collectively, a “Third-Party Claim”) with respect to which the Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification under this Article 8, the Indemnified Party will give written notification to the Indemnifying Party of the Third-Party Claim. Such notification will be given within five (5) days after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of such Third-Party Claim, will be accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation submitted by such third party (to the extent then in the possession of the Indemnified Party) and will describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the Indemnified Party) the facts constituting the basis for such Third-Party Claim and the amount of the claimed Damages; provided, however, that no delay or deficiency on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party of any Liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any Damages caused by or arising out of such failure. Within twenty (20) days after delivery of such notification, the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of such Third-Party Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. During any period in which the

Indemnifying Party has not so assumed control of such defense, the Indemnified Party will control such defense.

(ii) The party not controlling such defense (the “Non-controlling Party”) may participate therein at its own expense; provided, however, that if the Indemnifying Party assumes control of such defense and the Indemnified Party concludes, upon the written opinion of counsel, that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party have conflicting interests or different defenses available with respect to such Third-Party Claim, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party will be considered “Damages” for purposes of this Agreement. The party controlling such defense (the “Controlling Party”) will keep the Non-controlling Party reasonably advised of the status of such Third-Party Claim and the defense thereof and will consider in good faith recommendations made by the Non-controlling Party with respect thereto. The Non-controlling Party will furnish the Controlling Party with such Information as it may have with respect to such Third-Party Claim (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served on such party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and will otherwise cooperate with and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

(iii) The Indemnifying Party will not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that the consent of the Indemnified Party will not be required if (A) the Indemnifying Party agrees in writing to pay any amounts payable pursuant to such settlement or judgment, and (B) such settlement or judgment includes a full, complete and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from further Liability. The Indemnified Party will not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Section 8.4 Survival; Limitations.

(a) All covenants and agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement will survive each of the Contribution, the IPO and the Distribution. The rights and obligations of Motorola, Freescale and each of their respective Indemnified Parties under this Agreement will survive the sale, assignment or other transfer by any party of any Assets or Liabilities.

(b) The amount of any Damages for which indemnification is provided under this Agreement will be net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party from any third Person (including, without limitation, amounts actually recovered under insurance policies) with respect to such Damages. Any Indemnifying Party hereunder will be subrogated to the rights of the Indemnified Party upon payment in full of the amount of the relevant indemnifiable Damages. An insurer who would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim will not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of the indemnification provision hereof, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto. If any Indemnified Party recovers an amount from a third Person in respect of Damages for which indemnification is provided in this Agreement after the full amount of such indemnifiable Damages has been paid by an Indemnifying Party or after an Indemnifying Party has made a partial payment of such indemnifiable Damages and the amount received from the third Person exceeds the remaining unpaid balance of such indemnifiable Damages, then the Indemnified Party will promptly remit to the Indemnifying Party the excess (if any) of (X) the sum of the amount theretofore paid by such Indemnifying Party in respect of such indemnifiable Damages plus the amount received from the third Person in respect thereof, less (Y) the full amount of such indemnifiable Damages.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 8, in the event that a Freescale Group member is an Indemnifying Party, the initial presumption will be that there is no insurance coverage for any such Damages, and the Indemnifying Party will, upon request by Motorola, fully indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnified Party from and against any and all such Damages. Once the Indemnifying Party has discharged this obligation to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party may request that the Indemnified Party pursue insurance coverage from one or more insurers in connection with such Damages. If requested, the Indemnified Party will pursue insurance coverage, including, if necessary, the filing of coverage litigation, all of which will be at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense. The Indemnifying Party will pay directly or promptly reimburse the Indemnified Party for all such costs and expenses, as directed by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party will retain full and exclusive control of all such matters (including, without limitation, the settlement of underlying covered claims and/or coverage claims against insurers), and the Indemnified Party will have the right to select counsel with the concurrence of Indemnifying Party, which concurrence will not be withheld unreasonably. The net proceeds of any insurance recovery (after deducting any costs and expenses that have not yet been paid or reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party) will be paid to the Indemnifying Party. At all times, the Indemnifying Party will cooperate with the Indemnified Party’s insurers and/or with the Indemnified Party in the pursuit of insurance coverage, as and when reasonably requested to do so by the Indemnified Party. It is not the intent of this Section 8.4(c) to absolve the Indemnifying Party of any responsibility to the Indemnified Party for those Damages in connection with which the Indemnified Party actually secures insurance coverage, but to allocate the costs of pursuing such coverage to the Indemnifying Party and to provide the Indemnified Party with a full, interim indemnity from the Indemnifying Party until such time as the extent of insurance coverage is determined and is obtained. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.4(c), if the Indemnified Party in its sole discretion determines that it is necessary to do so, the Indemnified Party may pursue insurance coverage for the benefit of Indemnifying Party before the Indemnifying Party has fully discharged its obligations to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement. In such event, the Indemnified Party may unilaterally take any steps it determines are necessary to preserve such insurance coverage, including, by way of example and not by way of limitation, tendering the defense of any claim or suit to an insurer or insurers of the Indemnified Party if the Indemnified Party concludes that such action may be required by the relevant insurance policy or policies. Any such actions by the Indemnified Party will not relieve Indemnifying Party of any of its obligations to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement, including the Indemnifying Party’s obligation to pay directly or reimburse the Indemnified Party for costs and expenses.

(d) Any indemnification payment made under this Agreement will be characterized for Tax purposes as a contribution or distribution or payment of an assumed or retained liability, as applicable.

(e) Notwithstanding the joint and several indemnification obligations of each Group as set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.2, the parties agree that the indemnification obligation of any Motorola Group member or Freescale Group member, as applicable, for Damages will be satisfied by a direct payment from Motorola or Freescale, as applicable, to the other party irrespective of which Group member is found liable for Damages.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.1 or Section 8.2, (i) indemnification with respect to Taxes shall be governed exclusively by the Tax Sharing Agreement, (ii) to the extent the Intellectual Property License Agreement specifically provides indemnification with respect to Third-Party Claims for infringement of Intellectual Property rights (other than the Existing IP Litigation Matters), the Intellectual Property License Agreement shall govern with respect to that indemnification, and (iii) to the extent the Employee Matters Agreement specifically provides indemnification with respect to certain employee-related SPS Liabilities, the Employee Matters

Agreement shall govern with respect to that indemnification. To the extent indemnification is not provided in such Ancillary Agreements, the terms of this Agreement shall govern.

(g) NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY ANCILLARY AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY OR ANY OF ITS GROUP MEMBERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, COLLATERAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS SUFFERED BY AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY (COLLECTIVELY, “UNFORESEEN DAMAGES”), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DAMAGES ARISING HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT TO THE EXTENT AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY IS REQUIRED TO PAY ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, COLLATERAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS TO A PERSON WHO IS NOT A MEMBER OF EITHER GROUP IN CONNECTION WITH A THIRD PARTY CLAIM, SUCH DAMAGES WILL CONSTITUTE DIRECT DAMAGES AND NOT SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATION SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 8.4(g).

ARTICLE 9

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 9.1 Governing Law. The internal laws of the State of Delaware (without reference to its principles of conflicts of law) govern the construction, interpretation and other matters arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and, unless expressly provided therein, each Ancillary Agreement, and each of the exhibits and schedules hereto and thereto (whether arising in contract, tort, equity or otherwise).

Section 9.2 Jurisdiction. If any Dispute arises out of or in connection with this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, except as expressly contemplated by another provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, the parties irrevocably (and the parties will cause each other member of their respective Group to irrevocably) (a) consent and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of federal and state courts located in Delaware, (b) waive any objection to that choice of forum based on venue or to the effect that the forum is not convenient, and (c) WAIVE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL OR ADJUDICATION BY JURY.

Section 9.3 Dispute Resolution.

(a) Amicable Resolution.

(i) Motorola and Freescale mutually desire that friendly collaboration will continue between them. Accordingly, they will try, and they will cause their respective Group members to try, to resolve in an amicable manner all disagreements and misunderstandings connected with their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, including any amendments hereto or thereto. In furtherance thereof, in the event of any dispute or disagreement (a “Dispute”) between any Motorola Group member and any Freescale Group member as to the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement executed in connection herewith or therewith (or the performance of obligations hereunder or thereunder), then unless otherwise provided in any Ancillary Agreement, the matter, upon written request of either party, will be referred for resolution to a steering committee established pursuant to this Section 9.3(a) (the “Steering Committee”). The Steering Committee will have eight (8) members, four (4) of whom will be appointed by Motorola and four (4) of whom will be appointed by Freescale. Each of Motorola and Freescale will use its good faith efforts to avoid replacing the initial members of the Steering Committee for the first year after the Effective Date. Thereafter, Motorola and Freescale will, to the extent practicable, honor the other party’s

reasonable objections to any replacements of Steering Committee members. While any person is serving as a member of the Steering Committee, such person may not designate any substitute or proxy for purposes of attending or voting at a Steering Committee meeting. The Steering Committee will make a good faith effort to promptly resolve all Disputes referred to it. Steering Committee decisions made with the consent of at least three (3) Freescale members and at least three (3) Motorola members will be binding on Motorola and Freescale. If the Steering Committee does not agree to a resolution of a Dispute within thirty (30) days after the reference of the matter to it, each of Motorola and Freescale will be free to exercise the remedies available to it under applicable law, subject to Section 9.3(b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 9, any amendment to the terms of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement may only be effected in accordance with Section 9.10.

(ii) Between the Effective Date and the first anniversary of the Effective Date, the Steering Committee will hold meetings every six (6) weeks on dates established at the organizational meeting of the Steering Committee, which will be held as promptly as practicable after the Effective Date. Such meeting dates may be rescheduled by the Steering Committee if it becomes reasonably impracticable to hold such a meeting. After the first anniversary of the Effective Date, the Steering Committee will hold regularly scheduled meetings as determined by the Steering Committee.

(b) Mediation and Alternate Dispute Resolution. In the event any Dispute cannot be resolved in a friendly manner as set forth in Section 9.3(a), the parties intend that such Dispute be resolved by an alternative dispute resolution process (“ADR”). If the Steering Committee is unable to resolve the Dispute as contemplated by Section 9.3(a), either Motorola or Freescale may demand mediation of the Dispute by written notice to the other in which case the two parties will select a mediator within ten (10) days after the demand. Neither party may unreasonably withhold consent to the selection of the mediator. The parties may agree to replace mediation with some other form of non-binding ADR such as neutral fact finding or mini-trial. The use of any ADR procedures will not be construed under the doctrines of laches, waiver or estoppel to affect adversely the rights of either party. Each of Motorola and Freescale will bear its own costs of mediation or other form of ADR, but both parties will share the costs of the mediator or other arbiter equally.

(c) Non-Exclusive Remedy. Nothing in this Section 9.3 will prevent either Motorola or Freescale from commencing formal litigation proceedings or seeking injunctive or similar relief if (i) the Dispute has not been resolved within forty-five (45) days after commencement of the applicable ADR process or (ii) any delay resulting from efforts to mediate such Dispute could result in serious and irreparable injury to either Motorola, Freescale or any member of either party’s Group.

(d) Commencement of Dispute Resolution Procedure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, Motorola and Freescale are the only members of their respective Group entitled to commence a dispute resolution procedure under this Agreement, whether pursuant to Section 8.3, this Section 9.3 or otherwise, and each party will cause its respective Group members not to commence any dispute resolution procedure other than through such party as provided in this Section 9.3(d).

Section 9.4 Notices. Each party giving any notice required or permitted under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement will give the notice in writing and use one of the following methods of delivery to the party to be notified, at the address set forth below or another address of which the sending party has been notified in accordance with this Section 9.4: (a) personal delivery; (b) facsimile or telecopy transmission with a reasonable method of confirming transmission; (c) commercial overnight courier with a reasonable method of confirming delivery; or (d) pre-paid, United States of America certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. Notice to a party is

effective for purposes of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement only if given as provided in this Section 9.4 and will be deemed given on the date that the intended addressee actually receives the notice.

Notwithstanding anything in Section 6.8 to the contrary, neither party may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement without the written consent of the other party which consent may be withheld in such party’s sole and absolute discretion and any assignment or attempted assignment in violation of the foregoing will be null and void. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Motorola may assign this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement in connection with a merger transaction in which Motorola is not the surviving entity or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets.

Section 9.6 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement or such Ancillary Agreement, as the case may be, remain in full force, if the essential terms and conditions of this Agreement or such Ancillary Agreement, as the case may be, for each party remain valid, binding and enforceable.

Section 9.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Ancillary Agreements and each of the exhibits and schedules appended hereto and thereto, constitutes the final agreement between the parties, and is the complete and exclusive statement of the parties’ agreement on the matters contained herein and therein.

In the event of any conflict between any provision in this Agreement and any provision in a Contribution Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement will control over the provisions in such Contribution Agreement. In the event of any conflict between (a) any provision in this Agreement or any Contribution Agreement, on the one hand, and (b) any specific provision in any Key Ancillary Agreement, on the other hand, pertaining to the subject matter of such Key Ancillary Agreement, the specific provisions in such Key Ancillary Agreement will control over the provisions in this Agreement or such Contribution Agreement, as applicable.

Section 9.8 Counterparts. The parties may execute this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement in multiple counterparts, each of which constitutes an original as against the party that signed it, and all of which together constitute one agreement. The signatures of both parties need not appear on

the same counterpart. The delivery of signed counterparts by facsimile or email transmission that includes a copy of the sending party’s signature is as effective as signing and delivering the counterpart in person.

Section 9.9 Expenses. Freescale will be responsible for the payment of all costs, fees and expenses relating to the IPO, Motorola will be responsible for the payment of all costs, fees and expenses relating to the Distribution, and the responsibility for payment of costs, fees and expenses relating to the Contribution will be agreed to by the parties, including as set forth in the Tax Sharing Agreement and the Employee Matters Agreement.

Section 9.10 Amendment. The parties may amend this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement only by a written agreement signed by each party to be bound by the amendment and that identifies itself as an amendment to this Agreement or such Ancillary Agreement, as applicable.

Section 9.11 Waiver. The parties may waive a provision of this Agreement or an Ancillary Agreement only by a writing signed by the party intended to be bound by the waiver. A party is not prevented from enforcing any right, remedy or condition in the party’s favor because of any failure or delay in exercising any right or remedy or in requiring satisfaction of any condition, except to the extent that the party specifically waives the same in writing. A written waiver given for one matter or occasion is effective only in that instance and only for the purpose stated. A waiver once given is not to be construed as a waiver for any other matter or occasion. Any enumeration of a party’s rights and remedies in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement is not intended to be exclusive, and a party’s rights and remedies are intended to be cumulative to the extent permitted by law and include any rights and remedies authorized in law or in equity.

Section 9.12 Authority. Each of the parties represents to the other that (a) it has the corporate or other requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Agreements to which it is a party, (b) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Agreements to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action, (c) it has duly and validly executed and delivered this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Agreements to which it is a party, and (d) this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Agreements to which it is a party is a legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general equity principles.

Section 9.13 Construction of Agreement.

(a) Where this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement states that a party “will” or “shall” perform in some manner or otherwise act or omit to act, it means that the party is legally obligated to do so in accordance with this Agreement or such Ancillary Agreement, as applicable.

(b) The captions, titles and headings, and table of contents, included in this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements are for convenience only, and do not affect this Agreement’s or such Ancillary Agreements’ construction or interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to an Article or a Section, exhibit or schedule, such reference will be to an Article or Section of, or an exhibit or schedule to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.

(c) This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements are for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective Group members and, except for the indemnification rights of the Motorola Indemnified Parties and the Freescale Indemnified Parties under this Agreement or as expressly provided in any Ancillary Agreement, do not, and are not intended to, confer any rights or remedies in

favor of any Person (including any employee or stockholder of Motorola or Freescale) other than the parties signing this Agreement and their respective Group members.

(d) The words “including,” “includes,” or “include” are to be read as listing non-exclusive examples of the matters referred to, whether or not words such as “without limitation” or “but not limited to” are used in each instance.

(e) Any reference in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to the singular includes the plural where appropriate. Any reference in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to the masculine, feminine or neuter gender includes the other genders where appropriate. For purposes of this Agreement, after the Effective Date the SPS Business will be deemed to be the business of Freescale and the Freescale Group, and all references made in this Agreement to Freescale as a party which operates as of a time following the Effective Date, will be deemed to refer to all members of the Freescale Group as a single party where appropriate.

(f) Unless otherwise expressly specified in an Ancillary Agreement, all references in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to “dollars” or “$” means United States Dollars. If any payment required to be made hereunder is denominated in a currency other than United States Dollars, such payment will be made in United States Dollars and the amount thereof will be computed using Motorola’s P&L rate for the current month.

(g) Any reference in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to a “member” of a Group means a party to this Agreement or another Person referred to in the definition of Freescale Group or Motorola Group, as applicable.

Section 9.14 Termination.

(a) This Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Effective Date by and in the sole discretion of Motorola without the approval of Freescale in which case neither party will have any liability of any kind to the other party.

(b) The obligations of the parties under Article 4 (including the obligation to pursue or effect the Distribution) may be terminated by Motorola if (i) at any time after the Effective Date Motorola determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that the Distribution would not be in the best interests of Motorola or its stockholders or (ii) the Distribution has not occurred by December 31, 2005.

Section 9.15 Limitation on Damages. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY ANCILLARY AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY OR ANY OF ITS GROUP MEMBERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, COLLATERAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY CLAIMS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, OR INJURIES ARISING OUT OF THE CONDUCT OF SUCH PARTY PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT.

(This space intentionally left blank)

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the parties has caused this Agreement to be executed on its behalf by a duly authorized officer on the date first set forth above.
