On December 10, 2003, Silicon Laboratories Inc. acquired Cygnal Integrated Products, Inc.

In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 99-12, “Determination of the Measurement Date for the Market Price of Acquirer Securities Issued in a Purchase Business Combination”, Silicon Laboratories Inc. intends to use the average of the closing prices of Silicon Laboratories common stock for the three days before and after the date of the final distribution to value the earn-out shares issued to former Cygnal stockholders in this final distribution.

 

Also on May 18, 2005, Silicon Laboratories Inc. instructed the escrow agent in connection with such acquisition to distribute the 205,603 shares of common stock held in escrow to the former Cygnal stockholders.
