Indenture

The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of April 13, 2010 (the “Indenture”), among Freescale, certain direct and indirect parent companies, certain subsidiaries of Freescale (the “Guarantors”) and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee.

Freescale may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time prior to April 15, 2014 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, plus the applicable “make-whole” premium, as described in the Indenture. Freescale may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time on or after April 15, 2014 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, plus a premium declining over time as set forth in the Indenture. In addition, at any time on or prior to April 15, 2013, Freescale may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes with the proceeds of certain equity offerings, as described in the Indenture. If Freescale experiences certain change of control events, Note holders may require it to repurchase all or part of their Notes at 101% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the repurchase date.

The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability of Freescale, certain parent guarantors and restricted subsidiaries to, among other things, incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue preferred stock; pay dividends and make other restricted payments; incur restrictions on the payment of dividends or other distributions from restricted subsidiaries; create or incur certain liens; make certain investments; transfer or sell assets; engage in transactions with affiliates; and merge or consolidate with other companies or transfer all or substantially all of its assets. These covenants are subject to a number of other limitations and exceptions set forth in the Indenture.

The Indenture also provides for customary events of default, including failure to pay any principal or interest when due, failure to comply with covenants and cross acceleration provisions. In the case of an event of default arising from specified events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other event of default under the Indenture occurs or is continuing, the trustee or holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all of the Notes to be due and payable immediately.

The description of the Notes and the Indenture contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Indenture, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 4.1 which is incorporated herein by reference.

The Notes are also secured by an intellectual property security agreement, dated April 13, 2010, by and between Freescale, the Guarantors party thereto and Citibank, N.A., in its capacity as collateral agent for the holders of the Notes (the “IP Security Agreement”).
