Motorola wishes to caution the reader that
the factors below and those in the appendix
to Motorola’s Proxy Statement for the 2002
annual meeting of stockholders and in its
other SEC filings could cause Motorola’s
actual results to differ materially from those
stated in the forward-looking statements.
These factors include: (i) the company’s
ability to effectively carry out the planned
cost-reduction actions; (ii) the potential for
unanticipated results from cost-reduction
activities on productivity; (iii) the impact of
the slowdown in the overall economy and
the uncertainty of current economic condi-
tions; (iv) the impact of ongoing tax relief,
interest rate reduction and liquidity infusion
efforts to stimulate the economy; (v) the
decline in the telecommunications, semi-
conductor and broadband industries; (vi)
the company’s continuing ability to access
the capital markets on favorable terms;
(vii) demand for the company’s products,
including products related to new tech-
nologies; (viii) the company’s ability to con-
tinue to increase profitability and market
share in its wireless handset business; (ix)
the company’s success in the emerging 3G
market; (x) the demand for vendor financing
and the company’s ability to provide that
financing in order to remain competitive;
(xi) unexpected liabilities or expenses, includ-
ing unfavorable outcomes to any currently
pending or future litigation, including the
Iridium project; (xii) the success of alliances
and agreements with other companies to
develop new products and services; (xiii)
difficulties in integrating the operations of
newly acquired businesses and achieving
strategic objectives, cost savings and other
benefits; (xiv) volatility in the market value
