TABLE OF CONTENTS
PROXY STATEMENT
PROXY STATEMENT
ABOUT THE 2011 ANNUAL MEETING
This proxy statement (the Proxy Statement) is being furnished to holders of common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the
Common Stock), of Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc. (Motorola Mobility, or the Company). Proxies are being solicited on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company (the Board) to be used at the
2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the Annual Meeting) to be held at The Westin Chicago North Shore, 601 N. Milwaukee Avenue, Wheeling, Illinois 60090 on Monday, May 9, 2011 at 1:00 P.M., local time, for the purposes set
forth in the Notice of 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
This Proxy Statement, the form of proxy and the Companys
2010 Annual Report are being made available to stockholders on or after March 15, 2011.
All stockholders may view and
print Motorola Mobilitys Proxy Statement and the 2010 Annual Report at the Companys website at http://investors.motorola.com.
VOTING PROCEDURES
Who Is Entitled to Vote?
Only stockholders of record at the close of business on March 11, 2011 (the record date) will be entitled to notice of,
and to vote at, the Annual Meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof. On the record date, there were 294,956,924 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. The Common Stock is the only class of
voting securities of the Company.
A list of stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting will be available for examination
at the corporate offices of Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc., 600 N. U.S. Highway 45, Libertyville, Illinois 60048 for ten days before the Annual Meeting and at the Annual Meeting.
Why Did I Receive a Notice of Internet Availability?
Pursuant to
Securities and Exchange Commission rules for the electronic distribution of proxy materials, we have elected to provide our stockholders access to our proxy materials and 2010 Annual Report on the Internet instead of sending a full set of printed
proxy materials to all of our stockholders. This enables us to reduce costs, provide ease and flexibility for our stockholders and lessen the environmental impact of
our Annual Meeting. On or about March 18, 2011, we intend to mail most of our stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (a Notice). If you receive a
Notice by mail, you will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials in the mail unless you request it. Instead, the Notice instructs you on how to access and review all of the important information contained in the 2011 Proxy Statement and
2010 Annual Report. The Notice also instructs you on how you may submit your proxy over the Internet or by telephone. If you receive a Notice by mail and would like to receive a printed copy of our proxy materials, you should follow the instructions
for requesting such materials included in the Notice.
How Can I Vote Without Attending the Annual Meeting?
There are three convenient methods for registered stockholders to direct their vote by proxy without attending the Annual Meeting.
Stockholders can:
|
|
|
Vote by Internet. You can vote via the Internet. The website address for Internet voting is provided on your Notice or proxy card. You will need
to use the control number appearing on your Notice or proxy card to vote via the Internet. You can use the Internet to transmit your voting instructions up until 11:59 P.M. Eastern Time on Sunday, May 8, 2011. Internet voting is available
24 hours a day. If you vote via the Internet you do NOT need to vote by telephone or return a proxy card. |
|
|
|
Vote by Telephone. You can also vote by telephone by calling the toll-free telephone number provided on your Notice or on your proxy card. You
will need to use the control number appearing on your Notice or proxy card to vote by telephone. You may transmit your voting instructions from any touch-tone telephone up until 11:59 P.M. Eastern Time on Sunday, May 8, 2011. Telephone
voting is available 24 hours a day. If you vote by telephone you do NOT need to vote over the Internet or return a proxy card. |
|
|
|
Vote by Mail. If you received a printed copy of the proxy card, you can vote by marking, dating, signing, and returning it in the postage-paid
envelope provided. Please promptly mail your proxy card to ensure that it is received prior to the closing of the polls at the Annual Meeting.
|
If you are a beneficial owner, or you hold your shares in street name, please
check your voting instruction card or contact your bank, broker or nominee to determine whether you will be able to vote by Internet or telephone.
How Can I Change My Vote?
Registered stockholders can revoke their proxy
at any time before it is voted at the Annual Meeting by either:
|
|
|
Submitting another timely, later-dated proxy by Internet, telephone or mail; |
|
|
|
Delivering timely written notice of revocation to the Secretary, Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc., 600 N. U.S. Highway 45,
Libertyville, Illinois 60048; or |
|
|
|
Attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. |
If your shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or other nominee, you must obtain a proxy, executed in your favor, from the holder of record (that is, your bank, broker or nominee) to be able to
vote at the Annual Meeting.
How Many Votes Must be Present to Conduct Business at the Annual Meeting?
In order for business to be conducted, a quorum must be represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting. A quorum is a majority
of the shares entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Shares represented by a proxy marked abstain will be considered present at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining a quorum.
How Many Votes am I Entitled to Cast?
You are entitled to cast one vote for each share of Common Stock you own on the record date. Stockholders do not have the right to vote cumulatively in electing directors.
How Many Votes Are Required to Elect Directors?
Our Board of Directors has adopted through the Companys Bylaws and Board Governance Guidelines a majority vote standard for non-contested director elections. Because the number of nominees properly
nominated for the 2011 Annual Meeting is the same as the number of directors to be elected at the 2011
Annual Meeting, the 2011 election of directors is a non-contested election. To be elected in a non-contested election, a director nominee must receive more For votes than
Against votes. Abstentions will have no effect on the director election since only votes For and Against a nominee will be counted.
How Many Votes Are Required to Approve the Companys Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation?
With regard to the stockholder advisory vote on executive compensation, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual
Meeting will be required for advisory approval of the Companys executive compensation. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote Against the proposal.
How Many Votes are Required to Approve the Frequency of Future Stockholder Votes on Executive Compensation?
With regard to the stockholder advisory vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on executive compensation, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy
and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be required for advisory approval. The Board will consider the outcome of the vote when making future decisions regarding the frequency of advisory votes on executive compensation, recognizing that
such vote is advisory. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote Against the proposal.
How Many Votes Are Required to
Ratify the Appointment of KPMG LLP as our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm?
The affirmative vote of
the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be required to ratify the selection of KPMG LLP. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote Against the
proposal.
Will My Shares be Voted if I Do Not Provide Instructions to My Broker?
If you are the beneficial owner of shares held in street name by a broker, the broker, as the record holder of the shares,
is required to vote those shares in accordance with your instructions. If you do not give instructions to the broker, the broker will be entitled to vote the shares with respect to discretionary items,
but will not be permitted to vote the shares with respect to non-discretionary items (resulting in a broker non-vote).
These so-called broker non-votes will be included in the calculation of the number of votes considered to be present at the
meeting for the purposes of determining a quorum, but will not be considered in determining the number of votes necessary for approval and will have no effect on the outcome of the votes for (1) the election of directors, (2) the advisory vote on
executive compensation, or (3) the advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation. Only the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP is a discretionary item for which brokers would be permitted
to vote your shares in the absence of your instructions.
Who Represents My Proxy at the Annual Meeting?
If you do not vote in person at the Annual Meeting, but have voted your shares over the Internet, by telephone or by signing and
returning your proxy card, you have authorized certain members of Motorola Mobilitys senior management designated by the Board and named in your proxy to represent you and to vote your shares as instructed.
How does the Board Recommend I vote?
The Board of Directors recommends that you vote your shares:
|
(1) |
For the election of the ten director nominees named in this Proxy Statement, |
|
(2) |
For the approval of the advisory vote on executive compensation, |
|
(3) |
For the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation to be held annually, and |
|
(4) |
For the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as the Companys independent registered public accounting firm for 2011.
|
What if I Return a Proxy But Do Not Provide Specific Voting Instructions For Some or All of the Items?
All shares that have been properly votedwhether by Internet, telephone or mailand not revoked will be voted
at the Annual Meeting in accordance with your instructions. If you sign your proxy but do not give voting instructions, the shares represented by that proxy will be voted as recommended by the Board of Directors.
What if Other Matters Are Voted on at the Annual Meeting?
If any other matters are properly presented at the Annual Meeting for consideration and if you have voted your shares by Internet, telephone or mail, the persons named as proxies in your proxy will have
the discretion to vote on those matters for you. At the date we filed this Proxy Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Board of Directors did not know of any other matter to be raised at the Annual Meeting.
How Do I Vote if I Participate in the Companys 401(k) Plan?
If you own shares of Motorola Mobility Common Stock through the transitional Company stock fund of the 401(k) Plan (the 401(k) Plan) at Motorola Mobility or our Former Parent, the Notice or
proxy card includes the shares you hold in the 401(k) Plan as well as the shares you hold outside of the 401(k) Plan. Under the 401(k) Plan, participants are named fiduciaries to the extent of their authority to direct the voting of
shares of Common Stock credited to their 401(k) Plan accounts and their proportionate share of allocated shares for which no direction is received and unallocated shares, if any (together, Undirected Shares). The trustee of the 401(k)
Plan will vote Undirected Shares in the same proportion as the shares for which directions are received, except as otherwise provided in accordance with ERISA. By submitting voting instructions by Internet, telephone, or if hardcopies are requested,
by signing, dating and returning the proxy card, you direct the trustee of the 401(k) Plan to vote these shares, in person or by proxy, as designated therein, at the Annual Meeting.

RECOMMENDATION
OF THE BOARD
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE ELECTION OF THE TEN
NOMINEES NAMED HEREIN AS DIRECTORS. UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED ON YOUR PROXY, YOUR SHARES WILL BE VOTED FOR THE ELECTION OF SUCH TEN NOMINEES AS DIRECTORS.
What if a Nominee is Unable to Serve as Director?
If any of the nominees named above is not available to serve as a director at the time of the 2011 Annual Meeting (an event which the Board does not now anticipate), the proxies will be voted for the
election of such other person or persons as the Board may designate, unless the Board, in its discretion, reduces the number of directors.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE MATTERS
What Are the Boards Corporate Governance Principles?
As a new independent company, the Board established governance principles designed to reflect the current governance environment. These governance principles are included in the Board Governance
Guidelines, the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, the committee charters and other important policies of the Board and the Company. The new Board has considered important areas of governance, including the rights of the stockholders, the
role of Board and the responsibilities of management in developing the governance structure. The Board is committed to reviewing corporate best practices and assessing if adoption of such practices is in the best interest of the Company. The
Board recognizes that there are differing views on what is a best practice and has carefully determined what it believes is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders, especially as a new public company.
What Are Some of the Major Corporate Governance Initiatives the Board Has Adopted?
Some of the major corporate governance best practices that the Board has adopted include: an election of all of our directors annually by
a majority voting standard for uncontested director elections; no existing stockholder rights plan (commonly known as a poison pill); the ability for holders of 20% or more of Motorola Mobilitys Common Stock to request a special
meeting of stockholders; and a recoupment policy to recover certain executive pay in the event of misconduct leading to a financial restatement (commonly known as a clawback policy). Further, the Board is recommending in this proxy
statement that stockholders approve an annual frequency for the Say-on-Pay vote.
What Are our Directors Qualifications
to Serve on the Motorola Mobilitys Board?
The Board believes it should be comprised of individuals with appropriate
skills and experiences to meet board governance responsibilities and contribute effectively to the Company. Pursuant to its charter, the Governance and Nominating Committee will carefully consider the skills and experiences of directors and nominee
candidates to ensure that they meet the needs of the Company before nominating directors for election to the Board. All of our non-employee directors are expected to serve on Board committees,
further supporting the Board by providing expertise to those committees. The needs of the committees will also be reviewed when considering nominees to the Board.
The Board is comprised of active and former senior executives of major corporations and individuals with experience in various fields. As
such, they have a deep working knowledge of matters common to large companies, generally including experience with financial statement preparation, compensation determinations, regulatory compliance, corporate governance, public affairs and legal
matters. Many of our directors serve on the boards of one or more other publicly traded companies. We believe the Company benefits from the diverse experience and expertise our directors gain from serving on those boards. We also believe for
effective board governance and collaboration it is important to have Dr. Jha, our CEO, serve on the Board.
As a new
independent company, we had the opportunity to create a Board of Directors tailored specifically to the needs and strategic vision of the Company with a balance of former Motorola, Inc. directors and new directors with technological, consumer, media
and financial expertise. Our directors are qualified to serve as directors and members of the Committees on which they serve based on the biographical information in Who Are the Nominees? and on the following.
Mr. Barfield contributes the type of experience and qualifications the Board seeks to maintain, primarily through
his experiences as a senior leader, including as the chief executive officer for over 15 years of a talent acquisition and management firm specializing in placement of engineering and technology professionals, business process consulting services
and management of staffing requirements for regional and global corporations, his legal background, his service as the presiding director of BMC Software, Inc. and as a director of CMS Energy Corporation, and his past service as a director of

highly valued by the Board.
Which Directors Are Independent?
On December 13, 2010, the Board made the determination in accordance with the Motorola Mobility Board Governance Guidelines and consistent with the NYSE standards regarding independence, that
Mr. Barfield, Mr. Hambrecht, Mr. Meister, Mr. Meredith, Mr. Ninivaggi, Mr. Stengel, Mr. Vinciquerra and Dr. Viterbi were independent. On January 8, 2011, the Board also determined that Ms. Jackson
was independent under the same guidelines. Dr. Jha does not qualify as an independent director since he is an employee of the Company.
How Was Independence Determined?
The Motorola Mobility Board Governance Guidelines are based upon the NYSE independence standards. When applying the independence standards Motorola Mobility includes Motorola Mobility
Holdings, Inc. and any of its subsidiaries and the Motorola Mobility Foundation. A complete copy of the Motorola Mobility Board Governance Guidelines with independence standards is available on the Companys website
at http://investors.motorola.com.
What is Motorola Mobilitys Relationship with Entities Associated with Independent Directors?
For each director that is identified as independent, the Board reviewed under the NYSEs independence
standards included in the Motorola Mobility Board Governance Guidelines any transactions, relationships or arrangements with the Company and its Former Parent in determining that the director is independent. Commercial relationships were
reviewed for: Mr. Hambrecht in connection with a marketing agreement with the United Football League; Mr. Ninivaggi in connection with a supplier arrangement between the Company and a supplier where a family member is an executive officer;
and Mr. Vinciquerra in connection with a sales agreement between the Company and a subsidiary of the Fox Networks Group. In each case, the payments were significantly less than the NYSE independence standards and were determined by
the Board to be immaterial.
Are the Members of the Audit, Compensation and Leadership and Governance and Nominating Committees
Independent?
Yes. The Board has determined that all of the current members of the Audit Committee, the Compensation and
Leadership Committee and the Governance and Nominating Committee are independent within the meaning of the Motorola Mobility Board Governance Guidelines and the NYSE listing standards for independence.
Where Can I Receive More Information About Motorola Mobilitys Corporate Governance Practices?
Motorola Mobility maintains a corporate governance page on its website at http://investors.motorola.com that includes information
about its corporate governance practices. The following Motorola Mobility documents are currently included on the website:
Board Governance Guidelines, the current version of which the Board adopted on December 13, 2010;
Code of Business Conduct, which applies to all employees and directors effective January 4, 2011;
The charters of the Audit, Compensation and Leadership and Governance and Nominating Committees, the current versions of
which the Board adopted on December 13, 2010;
The Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended through
December 15, 2010; and
The Restated Bylaws, the current version of which the Board adopted on
November 30, 2010.
The Company intends to disclose amendments to the above documents or waivers applicable to its
directors, chief executive officer, chief financial officer or corporate controller from certain provisions of its ethical policies and standards for directors and its employees, on the Motorola Mobility website within four business days following
the date of the amendment or waiver.
SEPARATION FROM MOTOROLA, INC.
How Was Motorola Mobility Recently Separated from Motorola, Inc.?
On January 4, 2011 (the Distribution Date), Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc. became an independent, publicly traded company (the Separation) as a result of Motorola, Inc.s
distribution of its shares of Motorola Mobility to Motorola, Inc. stockholders. On the Distribution Date, Motorola, Inc. stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 21, 2010 (the Record Date) were entitled to receive
one share of Motorola Mobility Common Stock for every eight shares of Motorola, Inc. common stock held as of the Record Date (the Distribution). Motorola Mobility is comprised of Motorola, Inc.s former Mobile Devices and Home
businesses. Motorola, Inc.s Board of Directors approved the distribution of its shares of Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc. on November 30, 2010. Our Registration Statement on Form 10 was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission on December 1, 2010. Our Common Stock began trading regular way under the ticker symbol MMI on the New York Stock Exchange on January 4, 2011.
Motorola, Inc. changed its name to Motorola Solutions, Inc. (hereinafter, our Former Parent) effective on Separation on
January 4, 2011. For further information, see our amended Registration Statement on Form 10 filed with the SEC.
BOARD OF DIRECTORS MATTERS
How Often Did the Board Meet in 2010?
In preparation for the Separation of
Motorola Mobility from our Former Parent on January 4, 2011, the Board of Directors held one meeting during 2010.
Overall attendance at Board and committee meetings was 100%. Each incumbent director attended all of the combined total meetings of the Board and the committees on which such director served
during 2010.
Our Chairman and CEO, Dr. Jha and CFO, Mr. Rothman served as interim management members of our board of directors
during 2010 until November 30, 2010, when seven non-employee directors were elected by our Former Parent, replacing Mr. Rothman in preparation for the Separation on January 4, 2011. On January 4, 2011 and January 8, 2011, two
additional directors were elected by our Board. This Proxy Statement discusses the full public company Board.
How Many Directors Comprise
the Board?
The Board of Directors is currently comprised of ten directors. Immediately following the Annual Meeting, the
Board will consist of ten directors. In the interim between Annual Meetings, the Board has the authority under the Companys Bylaws to increase or decrease the size of the Board and to fill vacancies.
How Many Executive Sessions of the Board Were Held in 2010?
Independent directors of the Company meet regularly in executive session without management as required by the Motorola Mobility Board Governance Guidelines. Generally, executive sessions are held in
conjunction with regularly-scheduled meetings of the Board of Directors. In 2010, the non-employee independent members of the Board met in executive session one time during the one Board meeting held in anticipation of the Separation.
What is the Leadership Structure of the Board? Why was that Structure Chosen? Who Serves as Chairman of the Board and Lead Director?
Dr. Jha serves as Chairman of the Board, in addition to his role as Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Mr. Vinciquerra serves as an
independent Lead Director (the Lead Director). The Board has chosen this leadership structure, because it believes such structure is in the best interests of stockholders to enhance communication and efficiency and to implement strategic
priorities of the Company, particularly as the Company is a recent independent public company separated from our Former Parent. Further, the combined role fosters clear accountability and agile decision making, which is particularly important at
this time and in the industries in which we compete. Approximately 60% of the S&P 500 have
combined CEO-Chairman roles and only approximately 19% of the S&P 500 have an independent non-executive Chair, according to a recent survey. As with all corporate governance, the Board
intends to carefully evaluate from time to time the best governance for the Company. The Lead Director acts as the presiding director at meetings of the independent directors; advises on Board meeting agendas, materials and schedules; acts as
liaison between the independent directors and the Chairman and CEO; is available to speak on behalf of the Company; assists the Chairman and CEO as requested; and performs other duties as the Board determines.
Will the Directors Attend the Annual Meeting?
Board members are expected to attend the Annual Meeting as provided in the Motorola Mobility Board Governance Guidelines. This is the nominees first election to the Motorola Mobility Board as a
publicly-held company.
What is the Boards Role in the Oversight of Risks?
The Board of Directors oversees the business of the Company, including CEO and senior management performance and risk management, to
assure that the long-term interests of the stockholders are being served. Each committee of the Board of Directors is also responsible for reviewing the risk exposure of the Company related to the committees areas of responsibility and
providing input to management on such risks.
Management has a robust process embedded throughout the Company to identify,
analyze, manage and report all significant risks facing the Company. Each Board committee reviews with management significant risks related to the committees area of responsibility and reports to the Board on such risks, which includes the
Compensation and Leadership Committees review of Company-wide compensation-related risks. The independent Board members also discuss the Companys significant risks when they meet in executive session without management.
Our Companys Audit department has a very important role in the risk management program. The role of the department is to provide
management and the Audit Committee with an overarching and objective view of the risk management activity of the enterprise. The departments engagements span financial, operational, strategic and compliance risks and the engagement results
assist management in
maintaining tolerable risk levels. The director of the department works directly with the Audit Committee and meets regularly with the Committee, including in executive session.
What Are the Committees of the Board?
To assist it in carrying out its duties, the Board has delegated certain authority to several committees. The Board currently has the following committees: (1) Audit, (2) Compensation and
Leadership, and (3) Governance and Nominating. Committee membership as of January 8, 2011 is indicated below. In preparation for the Separation of Motorola Mobility from our Former Parent on January 4, 2011, the number of meetings
held during 2010 are also indicated below:

What is the Decision-Making Process to Determine Director Compensation?
Our Board approved the compensation for non-employee directors at its meeting on December 13,
2010 in preparation for the Separation from our Former Parent. The non-employee director compensation package was recommended by Compensia, Inc. (Compensia), our Boards
independent compensation consultant. The non-employee director compensation was determined to be consistent with market practices of other similarly situated companies and took into consideration the impact on non-employee directors
independence and objectivity. The Governance and Nominating Committee will recommend any future changes to such non-employee director compensation to the Board. In carrying out its duties, the Governance and Nominating Committee has direct access to
outside advisors, including independent compensation advisors. The charter of the Governance and Nominating Committee does not permit the Committee to delegate director compensation matters to management and management has no role in recommending
the amount or form of director compensation.
What is the Decision-Making Process to Determine Executive Compensation?
Our Board delegated to its Compensation and Leadership Committee the responsibility to oversee the programs under which compensation is
paid or awarded to our executives and to evaluate the performance of our senior management. The Compensation and Leadership Committee is responsible for bringing recommended compensation actions involving the Chairman and CEO to the Board for its
concurrence. The Global Compensation department in the Human Resources organization supports the Compensation and Leadership Committee in its work and, in some cases, may act pursuant to delegated authority from the Compensation and Leadership
Committee to fulfill various functions in administering its compensation programs.
In carrying out its duties, our
Compensation and Leadership Committee has direct access to outside advisors, independent compensation consultants and others to assist them. Our Compensation and Leadership Committee employs its own independent compensation consultant to assist in
its compensation decisions for the Companys executive officers, as discussed below. Further, for a discussion of the role of our Former Parents Compensation and Leadership Committees independent compensation consultant in
determining 2010 compensation for our Named Executive Officers, see the section entitled Former Parents Independent Consultant Engagement in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis.
What is the Role of Independent Compensation Consultants in Executive and Director Compensation
Determinations?
In accordance with our Former Parents Compensation and Leadership Committees charter, the
Committee has the sole authority, to the extent deemed necessary and appropriate, to retain and terminate any compensation consultants, outside counsel or other advisors, including the sole authority to approve the firms or advisors fees
and other retention terms.
In accordance with this authority, in mid-2010, our Former Parents Compensation and
Leadership Committee retained Compensia to provide independent compensation services to Motorola Mobility. In December 2010, our Compensation and Leadership Committee retained Compensia in this capacity. Compensia provided insight and advice on
matters regarding trends in executive compensation, relative executive pay and benefits practices, relative assessment of pay to performance of our executives, and may cover other topics as the Compensation and Leadership Committee deems
appropriate. See the section entitled Former Parents Independent Consultant Engagement in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis for further details on the consultant engagement.
Compensia maintains no other direct or indirect business relationship with the Company. In addition to the independent, outside
compensation consultant, members of our human resources, legal and finance departments support our Compensation and Leadership Committee in its work.
What Role, if any, do Executive Officers Play in Determining or Recommending Executive and Director Compensation?
Our senior corporate staff, comprised of the Chairman and CEO and certain executives designated by the Chairman and CEO, provides recommendations regarding the design of the Companys compensation
program to the Compensation and Leadership Committee. Additionally, the Committees compensation consultant provides input on these recommendations from time to time. Upon Compensation and Leadership Committee approval, the senior corporate
staff is responsible for executing the objectives of the approved compensation program.
Each member of our senior corporate
staff is ultimately responsible for approving all compensation actions for their respective organizations. When these
compensation actions involve other Motorola Mobility executives, the involved senior corporate staff member is accountable for ensuring adherence to all established governance procedures.
The Chairman and CEO is responsible for recommending all compensation actions involving any officer subject to Section 16
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (a Section 16 Officer) and other key senior officers, to the Compensation and Leadership Committee for its approval. The Chairman and CEO takes an active role in Compensation
and Leadership Committee meetings at which compensation actions involving the above officers are discussed.
As discussed
above, our Compensation and Leadership Committee directly engages an independent outside consulting firm to assist it in its review of the compensation for Motorola Mobilitys senior corporate staff. This consultant also participates in certain
Committee meetings.
The Global Compensation department in Motorola Mobilitys Human Resources organization, the Senior
Vice President, Chief People Officer and the Committees independent compensation consultant together prepare recommendations regarding Chairman and CEO compensation and brings those recommendations to our Compensation and Leadership Committee.
The Chairman and CEO is not involved in the preparation of recommendations related to his compensation and does not participate in the discussions regarding his compensation at Committee meetings. The consultant is also available at such meetings.
Our Compensation and Leadership Committee is responsible for bringing recommended compensation actions involving the Chairman
and CEO to the independent members of the Board for their concurrence. The Compensation and Leadership Committee cannot unilaterally approve compensation changes for the Chairman and CEO.
As stated above, management does not recommend or determine director compensation.
What Are the Director Stock Ownership Guidelines?
Our Board Governance Guidelines provide that, within five years of joining the Board, directors are expected to own Motorola Mobility Common Stock with a value equivalent to at least five times the annual
retainer fee for directors for a total value of $375,000. For the purposes of these guidelines, Motorola Mobility Common Stock includes stock units.
How Are the Directors Compensated?
Our non-employee director compensation is designed to provide competitive compensation and benefits that will attract and retain high
quality directors, target director compensation at a level that is consistent with our compensation objectives and encourage ownership of our stock to further align directors interests with those of our stockholders.
Our Board of Directors approved the following non-employee director compensation, effective in connection with the Separation, which was
developed with the assistance of Compensia, our Boards independent compensation consultant.

Non-employee directors
do not receive any additional fees for attendance at meetings of the Board or its committees or for additional work done on behalf of the Board or a committee. Dr. Jha, who is an employee of Motorola Mobility, receives no additional
compensation for serving on the Board or its committees.
Deferral of Fees. Director retainers and other fees are paid
quarterly. A non-employee director may elect to receive all or a portion of his or her retainer and other fees in the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). The RSUs received in lieu of a retainer and other fees will be fully vested and
paid in the form of shares of Common Stock upon the deferral date specified by the director.
Annual Equity Award.
Annually, each non-employee director will receive an equity award with an aggregate fair market value on the date of grant of $150,000, 50% of which will be in stock options and 50% of which will be in RSUs. These equity awards will fully vest
on the first anniversary of the date of grant. The number of RSUs are determined by dividing the value by the closing price of our Common Stock on the date of grant. The
number of shares of our Common Stock to be acquired pursuant to a stock option will be determined based upon the Companys standard method for valuing stock options for financial accounting
purposes. The stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the closing price of our Companys stock on the date of grant and are exercisable for ten years from the date of grant. The settlement of vested RSUs received from such
equity award may be deferred. The annual grant for directors is expected following the annual meetings of stockholders.
Pro Rated Annual Equity Award. A non-employee director who joins our Board after the annual grant will receive an equity award
upon joining our Board which
will be pro rated based on the number of months to be served until the next annual equity award ($12,500 per month) divided by the closing price of our stock on the day of the award.
These pro rata equity awards will fully vest on the first anniversary of the date of grant, unless otherwise determined by the Board. A pro rated annual equity award for the non-employee directors was made on January 28, 2011 to all
non-employee directors, other than Ms. Jackson whose award was granted on February 1, 2011, for months of service until the 2011 annual meeting of stockholders. These pro rated awards vest on the last business day before the 2011 annual
meeting of stockholders.

As described above, directors may elect to receive a portion of their retainer or other fees in the form of restricted stock units (RSUs) that may be
deferred. No directors deferred fees in 2010. The amounts in column (b) are the portion of the annual retainer and any other fees the non-employee director received in cash for 2010. |
(2) |
As of December 31, 2010, no stock or option awards were outstanding for the directors. In the first quarter of 2011, directors were granted a pro rated annual
equity award for months of service until the 2011 annual meeting of stockholders. |
(3) |
The aggregate amount of perquisites and personal benefits, securities or property given to each named director valued on the basis of aggregate incremental cost to the
Company was less than $10,000. |

Mr. Barfield joined the Motorola Mobility Board on January 4, 2011. |

Ms. Jackson joined the Motorola Mobility Board on January 8, 2011. |
Director Insurance Coverage
Non-employee directors are covered by insurance that provides accidental death and dismemberment coverage of $500,000 per person. The
spouse of each such director is also covered by such insurance when traveling with the director on business trips for the Company. The Company pays the premiums for such insurance. As a subsidiary of our Former Parent throughout 2010, no premiums
were separately paid by Motorola Mobility for coverage of non-employee directors and their spouses during the year ended December 31, 2010.
What is the Process for Identifying and Evaluating Director Candidates?
As
stated in the Motorola Mobility Board Governance Guidelines, when selecting directors, the Board and the Governance and Nominating Committee will review and consider many factors, including experience in the context of the Boards needs,
leadership qualities, diversity, ability to exercise sound judgment, existing time commitments and independence. It will also consider ethical standards and integrity.
The Governance and Nominating Committee will consider nominees recommended by Motorola Mobility stockholders provided that the recommendation contains sufficient information for the Governance and
Nominating Committee to assess the suitability of the candidate, including the candidates qualifications. Candidates recommended by stockholders that comply with these procedures will receive the same consideration that candidates recommended
by the Committee and management receive.
The Governance and Nominating Committee will consider recommendations from many
sources, including members of the Board and search firms. During 2010, in connection with the Separation, our Former Parents board of directors recommended Mr. Hambrecht, Dr. Jha, Mr. Meister, Mr. Meredith, Mr. Stengel and Mr.
Vinciquerra. Mr. Barfield and Ms. Jackson were identified by a search firm and our chief executive officer identified Mr. Viterbi as potential director candidates. Carl C. Icahn and his related entities, our largest stockholder, recommended Mr.
Ninivaggi as a director candidate and the Company agreed to nominate him for 2010 through 2013 pursuant to a Letter Agreement with the Company dated November 30, 2010 attached to our amended Registration Statement on Form 10. From
time to time, we expect that Motorola Mobility will hire global search firms to help identify and facilitate the screening and interview process of director nominees. We expect that the search
firm will screen candidates based on the Boards criteria, perform reference checks, prepare a biography for each candidate for the Committees review and help arrange interviews. The Committee will conduct interviews with candidates who
meet the Boards criteria and will do a robust assessment of the candidate. In 2010, a global executive search firm was retained to help identify director prospects, perform candidate outreach and provide other related services.
PROPOSAL NO. 2
ADVISORY APPROVAL OF THE
COMPANYS EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
As a newly independent public company on January 4, 2011, the Motorola Mobility
Board and management have thoughtfully redesigned our executive compensation objectives, policies and programs for the businesses we are in and the strategic mission of the Company.
Principles for Motorola Mobilitys New Compensation Program
Our compensation programs are designed to be strongly linked to performance by:
|
(1) |
measuring performance at the individual, business segment and overall Company level; |
|
(2) |
leveraging the talent assessment program to closely align compensation to recent and relevant results; |
|
(3) |
providing highly differentiated rewards at the individual and business segment level, as warranted by performance; and |
|
(4) |
utilizing a high proportion of stock options in the long-term incentive program for executives. |
Our at-risk compensation programs (both short- and long-term) provide for significant upside for superior performance and
downside for underperformance and align executives interests to those of our stockholders.
New Program and
Practices
For 2011, Motorola Mobility, together with our Chairman and CEO, have made several program decisions
intended to enhance the effectiveness of rewards and align them to current best practices. For
example, both our Chairman and CEO and our NEOs hired in 2010 voluntarily agreed to forego a tax gross up on a change in control. We have also eliminated tax gross ups under the change in control
severance plan for newly hired or promoted executives and notified other participants that we are eliminating tax gross ups once the three year notice period under the Former Parents plan is concluded.
Several other program improvements are outlined in more detail in Our New Rewards Programs and Practices After Separation and
Specific Improvements section in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis.
Pursuant to Section
14A of the Securities Exchange Act, we are seeking stockholder advisory approval, commonly known as a Say-on-Pay, of the compensation of our Named Executive Officers. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of
compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our Named Executive Officers and the policies and practices described in this Proxy Statement, through consideration of the following non-binding advisory resolution:
Resolved, that the stockholders advise that they approve the compensation of the Companys Named Executive Officers,
as disclosed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables and any related material in this Proxy Statement.
Although your vote is advisory and not binding upon the Board, the Board and its Compensation and Leadership Committee take the outcome of the vote expressed by its stockholders into consideration for
future executive compensation arrangements.
RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE ADVISORY APPROVAL OF THE COMPANYS
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION. UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED ON YOUR PROXY, YOUR SHARES WILL BE VOTED FOR THE APPROVAL OF THE EXECUTIVE
COMPENSATION.
PROPOSAL NO. 3
ADVISORY APPROVAL OF THE FREQUENCY OF FUTURE STOCKHOLDER VOTES ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The Companys stockholders are being provided the opportunity to cast a non-binding, advisory vote on the frequency of how often the
Company should include an advisory vote on executive compensation or a Say-on-Pay in its proxy materials for future annual stockholder meetings and certain special meetings, when applicable, pursuant to Section 14A of the Securities
Exchange Act.
Stockholders may vote under this proposal to hold a Say-on-Pay advisory vote on executive
compensation every year, every two years or every three years.
Our Board is recommending an annual advisory vote on executive
compensation.
RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR AN ANNUAL ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION EVERY ONE YEAR. UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED ON YOUR PROXY, YOUR SHARES
WILL BE VOTED FOR AN ANNUAL ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION EVERY ONE YEAR.
PROPOSAL
NO. 4
RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF KPMG LLP AS THE COMPANYS INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR
2011
The Audit Committee of the Board has appointed KPMG LLP as the Companys independent registered public
accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2011. Services provided to the Company and its subsidiaries by KPMG LLP in fiscal year 2010 are described under Audit Committee MattersIndependent Registered Public
Accounting Firm Fees.
We are asking our stockholders to ratify the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent
registered public accounting firm. Although ratification is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise, the Board is submitting the appointment of KPMG LLP to our stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice.
Representatives of KPMG LLP will be present at the Annual Meeting to respond to appropriate questions and to make such statements as
they may desire.
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or by
proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be required to ratify the appointment of KPMG LLP. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote Against the proposal.
In the event stockholders do not ratify the appointment, the appointment will be reconsidered by the Audit Committee and the Board. Even
if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may appoint a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company
and our stockholders.
RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF
KPMG LLP AS THE COMPANYS INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR 2011. UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED ON YOUR PROXY, YOUR SHARES WILL BE VOTED FOR THE RATIFICATION OF KPMG LLP.

Pursuant to Dr. Jhas employment agreement, on January 28, 2011, he was granted post-separation equity awards (Post-Separation Equity Awards)
in an amount that, together with his inducement equity awards received at the time of hire, represented approximately 1.8% ownership of the stock of Motorola Mobility. This amount was determined based upon a formula that took into account the
Companys initial market capitalization. This formula was included in his employment agreement originally entered into between Dr. Jha and our Former Parent with 90% of the award in stock options (Post-Separation Option Award) and
10% in restricted stock (Post-Separation Restricted Stock Award). On January 28, 2011 (the Grant Date), Dr. Jha was granted the Post-Separation Restricted Stock Award of 318,792 shares of restricted stock and the
Post-Separation Option Award of 2,869,131 stock options to purchase shares of Company Common Stock with an exercise price based on the closing market value on the date of grant of $29.59. The Post-Separation Equity Awards vest, subject to continued

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Prior to the Separation from Motorola, Inc. (the Former Parent) on January 4, 2011, Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc.
(Motorola Mobility or the Company) was a subsidiary of the Former Parent and each Named Executive Officer (Named Executive Officer or NEO) was employed by the Former Parent or its subsidiaries. In
connection with the Separation, in December 2010, the board of directors of Motorola Mobility (our Board) formed its own Compensation and Leadership Committee. In this Compensation Discussion and Analysis, we refer to the Compensation
and Leadership Committee of the Former Parent as the Former Parent Compensation Committee and the Compensation and Leadership Committee of Motorola Mobility as our Compensation Committee. As a newly independent public
company, our Compensation Committee determines the Companys executive compensation for 2011 and beyond.
MOTOROLA
MOBILITY
Our New Rewards Objectives and Guidelines After Separation
As a newly independent public company on January 4, 2011, we have the opportunity to redesign our executive compensation objectives,
policies, practices and programs for the businesses we are in and to align with the strategic mission of our Company. We are designing our compensation programs and practices to drive financial performance, incentivize execution on our business
strategy and change our culture. Our new programs and practices reward superior performance on an individual, business segment and overall Company level and provide long-term incentives to employees in roles critical to our future.
Our objective is to provide a total compensation package that is competitive and that allows for significant upside when superior
performance is achieved and less than target when performance is below expectations. While more remains to be done, significant efforts have been made in the short time since Separation to align our programs to our principles.
Each pay component plays a different and important purpose in an employees overall compensation and each component is influenced by
different elements of our talent assessment.
|
|
|
Base salary and merit increases are influenced primarily by market competitiveness and an individuals skill set.
|
|
|
|
Short-term incentives reward recent individual and business performance. |
|
|
|
Equity grants recognize strategic potential and criticality of the role to the Company, longer-term business contributions and are a long-term
retention tool. |
Our rewards programs and levels generally target median market practices of our comparator
group for the industries and locations in which we operate through designs that link Company, business segment, and individual performance. Our Compensation Committee and Dr. Jha have discretion to set individuals total compensation above
or below the median market levels for strategic positions when the value of the role and the individuals experience, performance and specific skill set justifies variation.
We have set the following guiding principles for the development and implementation of our new rewards programs and have taken specific
actions in 2011 to align to these principles:
1. Be Market Competitive
Our compensation programs (base salary, annual and long-term incentives) and benefits target the median of our comparator group discussed
later, but may provide long-term incentive opportunities that are above the median for a select group of key strategic talent. The mix of compensation and benefits seeks to be competitive within the high technology market, and achieve market
competitiveness for individual programs as appropriate given their cost and complexity.
2. Pay for Performance
Our compensation programs are strongly linked to performance by:
(a) |
measuring performance at the individual, business segment and overall Company level, |
(b) |
leveraging the talent assessment program to closely align compensation to recent and relevant results, |
(c) |
providing highly differentiated rewards at the individual and business segment level, as warranted by performance, and |
(d) |
utilizing a high proportion of stock options in the long-term incentive program for executives.
|
Additionally, the at-risk compensation programs (both short and long-term)
provide for significant upside for superior performance and downside for underperformance without encouraging unnecessary and excessive risk taking that could jeopardize the Company. When performance goals are not met, we are committed to reducing
or eliminating short-term incentive bonuses and we are implementing a new annual incentive plan that will permit us the flexibility to do so on an individual, business segment or overall Company level.
3. Align Equity Awards to Business Strategy
We seek to effectively use equity awards as a tool to differentiate, reward and retain strategic talent who are expected to have the greatest impact on the Companys future results. This concentrates
our equity awards on strategic talent with the largest grant being awarded to critical talent. With such efforts, we seek to maintain market competitiveness by high technology industry standards.
4. Limit Perquisites and Gross Ups
As a new public company we strive to limit executives perquisites to those which are market competitive or considered necessary to help ensure our executives perform better and with fewer
distractions. Further, as discussed below, we have already taken several measures to eliminate tax gross ups in a change in control.
Our New Rewards Programs and Practices After Separation and Specific Improvements
Our Chairman and CEOs Compensation
Unique circumstances demanded the
Former Parent attract a top quality leader for our Mobile Devices business, particularly to accomplish the Separation into two independent, publicly traded companies. The Former Parent Compensation Committee determined it was necessary to have
Dr. Jhas employment agreement reflect a competitive and compelling compensation package involving a significant amount of at-risk equity. Attracting Dr. Jha to Motorola required both guaranteeing certain elements of
compensation and also providing inducements to accept the additional risk of leading a turnaround and Dr. Jha was one of very few industry leaders qualified to meet this challenge. Nevertheless, as we are now a new public company, the Chairman
and CEO and our Compensation Committee made
significant changes to these arrangements and certain provisions are no longer applicable, as described below:
|
|
|
Forego Tax Gross Ups. Dr. Jha voluntarily amended his employment agreement to: |
|
(1) |
forego and eliminate a tax gross up in the event of an excise tax on a change in control benefit under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) 280G provided in his
employment agreement originally entered into with the Former Parent, and |
|
(2) |
forego and eliminate a tax gross up for his temporary housing allowance provided in his employment agreement originally entered into with the Former Parent.
|
|
|
|
Forego Partial Bonus. Dr. Jha decided to voluntarily forego $704,000 of earned formula-based and discretionary bonuses granted to him for 2010
performance. |
|
|
|
No Guaranteed Bonuses. Dr. Jha is no longer entitled to any guaranteed minimum annual bonus, beginning with the 2010 bonus period. While
his target remains 200%, his bonus amount, if any, is determined by performance with no contractual minimum. |
|
|
|
Forego Loss on Sale. Dr. Jha decided to voluntarily forego the loss on sale provision for home relocation under his employment agreement
originally entered into with the Former Parent. |
|
|
|
No Contingent Payment Possible. On January 4, 2011, by nature of the Separation occurring, the Contingent Payment of $38 million in the
event the Company did not separate is no longer possible for Dr. Jha. At the time of his original employment agreement with the Former Parent, the Contingent Payment was considered necessary in order to attract an executive of his unique caliber and
experience to tackle the challenges and career risks associated with turning around the Mobile Devices business, particularly if circumstances precluded the separation from occurring. This provision is no longer applicable.
|
|
|
|
Low End of Separation Equity Range. In connection with the Separation and pursuant to his employment agreement, Dr. Jha was entitled to an
equity grant in an amount that, together with his inducement equity awards received at the time of hire, represented between 1.8% to
|
|
|
3.0% of the equity of the Company. His actual resulting equity awarded under this formula was approximately 1.8%on the lowest end of the range. |
|
|
|
No LRIP Participation. Dr. Jha has never participated in the long-range incentive plan (LRIP) multi-year cash incentive plan and the
Company does not expect to implement such a plan in the near-term. |
|
|
|
Exceeds Six Times Salary Stock Ownership Guideline. As discussed later, our Chairman and CEO is required to maintain stock equal to six times
his base salary and his ownership far exceeds these guidelines. |
Our Program Re-Design
Motorola Mobility has established its own compensation programs and practices for 2011. In addition to efforts related to our Chairman and
CEO above, we have made several changes to align our programs to current best practices and in ways intended to enhance the effectiveness of our rewards programs.
|
|
|
Gross Ups Eliminated or Minimized by: |
|
1. |
eliminating tax gross ups under the change in control severance plan for newly hired or promoted executives; |
|
2. |
notifying the remaining executives with change in control benefits that we are eliminating tax gross ups once the three year notice period under the Former
Parents change in control severance plan is concluded; and |
|
3. |
Mr. Moloney and Mr. Crum, who were hired in 2010, voluntarily and immediately foregoing a tax gross up in the event of a change of control provided under the
change in control severance plan for legacy participants without waiting for the conclusion of the three year notice period to eliminate this provision. |
|
|
|
Change in Control Benefits Reduced. We reduced the benefits for new participants under our change in control severance plan from a 3-times
severance multiple to a 2-times severance multiple as discussed in Change in Control Protection and notified the remaining executives with change in control benefits that the severance multiple will be no greater than a
|
|
|
2-times severance multiple once the three year notice period under the Former Parents plan is concluded. We also intend that the new plans eligibility would be limited to a smaller
group of key executives. |
|
|
|
Peer Group More Closely Tailored. We updated the comparator group of peer companies to be more reflective of our businesses and size after the
Separation from the Former Parent. |
|
|
|
At-Risk Compensation Weighted. We designed stock options to be approximately two-thirds of executives long-term incentive
value to ensure amounts are at-risk based on performance and aligned with stockholders in a responsible manner without creating undue risk. |
|
|
|
Eliminated Long-Term Cash Incentive Plans. We have not adopted a multi-year, long-term cash incentive plan for Motorola Mobility and instead
have rebalanced our long-term incentives to be delivered in the form of equity awards. |
|
|
|
Aligned First Equity Grant to Stockholders. We accelerated the first annual equity grant to January from May in 2011 to coincide with the
formation of a new, independent company and to align executives interests with stockholders at an earlier date. |
|
|
|
Increased Differentiation and Pay-for-Performance. We increased differentiation by targeting annual equity awards to a more
limited number of recipients expected to have the greatest impact on the Companys future results. Further, we are implementing a new annual bonus plan that permits us the flexibility to increase awards within limits or reduce awards to zero.
|
|
|
|
More Direct Link from Performance to Results. As a smaller company with fewer segments, our equity program has a more direct link for an
individuals performance to directly impact the stock price of the Company, creating enhanced incentives for superior individual performance. |
|
|
|
Extended Retention Value of Equity. We increased the standard equity vesting period from three to four years to extend retention value and
promote long-term performance, reducing incentives for excessive risk taking. |
|
|
|
Best Practice on Change in Control Trigger. We have a double trigger in the Change in
|
|
|
Control Severance Plan, which requires that an executive be separated from service or terminates for good reason in conjunction with a change in control event before receiving any change in
control payouts. We also have a modified double trigger in the 2011 Incentive Compensation Plan which provides that there is no acceleration of equity or performance awards if such awards are assumed or replaced by the successor. For
awards that are assumed or replaced during a change in control, accelerated treatment is only afforded if the executive is separated from service or terminates for good reason within 24 months of the change in control event.
|
|
|
|
Clawback Policy. We have a recoupment policy applicable to our executive officers, also called a clawback policy, that provides for
recoupment of incentive payments that are overstated as a result of the restatement of our financial results, reducing incentives for excessive risk taking. |
|
|
|
Stock Hedging Prohibited. We have an anti-hedging policy that prohibits all vice presidents and above, including our executive
officers from engaging in any transaction in which they may profit from short-term speculative swings in the value of our securities, reducing incentives for excessive risk taking. |
|
|
|
Independent Compensation Consultant. Our Compensation Committee engages an independent compensation consultant who reports directly to the
Committee and provides no other services directly or indirectly to Motorola Mobility. |
|
|
|
Risk Reviewed. Our Compensation Committee, with the input of management and the independent compensation consultant, reviews an annual risk
assessment of Motorola Mobility compensation practices and will make adjustments if undue risks are identified. |
|
|
|
Target Median Compensation. We intend to target the market median for total compensation as well as for each individual component of total
direct compensation, with deviations when the criticality of the role, performance and specific skill set justifies variation. |
2010 Business Highlights
2010 was a transformational year for our
Company. In February 2010, the Former Parent announced a revised strategy and timeline for the
Separation, which included splitting the formerly combined Home and Networks business segment between Motorola Mobility (comprised of the Mobile Devices and Home businesses) and Motorola
Solutions (comprised of the remaining businesses) and completing the Separation by the first quarter of 2011, which was successfully accomplished on January 4, 2011.
The Companys financial performance significantly improved in 2010 as did the Former Parents, which is especially noteworthy considering the challenging economic environment we faced while at
the same time managing the complexities associated with executing the Separation. The significantly improved financial performance of both the Company and the Former Parent correlated to increased payouts under the annual incentive plan, the
Motorola Incentive Plan (MIP), and the continued recovery of the Former Parents stock price correlated to payouts under two of the three LRIP cycles. In the case of the Mobile Devices business which did not receive bonuses for 2008
and received very small bonuses for 2009, the improved performance resulted in correspondingly larger bonuses under MIP. The sections Short-Term Incentives and Long-Term Incentives provide details regarding how
the improved business and stock performance correlated to payouts under both the MIP and LRIP programs.
FORMER PARENT
Remainder of this Compensation Discussion and Analysis
The historical compensation strategy, including for compensation shown in the Summary Compensation Table for 2008, 2009 and 2010, was
implemented by the Former Parents senior management and the Former Parent Compensation Committee. The remainder of this Compensation Discussion and Analysis covers the 2010 executive compensation provided in the tables that follow, with
additional 2011 disclosure as noted, for the most highly compensated Motorola Mobility NEOs.
2010 Former Parent
Compensation
Executive compensation arrangements with and compensation decisions regarding NEOs prior to our
Separation were decided by the Former Parent Compensation Committee with the exception of the individual performance factors for 2010 under the Motorola Incentive Plan which were determined by our Compensation Committee with the concurrence of our
Board of Directors in the case of Dr. Jha.
Our Chairman and CEO, CFO and NEOs held the following positions at the Former Parent during
2010 and currently at Motorola Mobility, as indicated:
|
|
|
Sanjay K. Jha, Co-Chief Executive Officer, Motorola, Inc.; Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Motorola Mobility |
|
|
|
Marc E. Rothman, Senior Vice President, Motorola, Inc.; Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, Motorola Mobility |
|
|
|
Daniel M. Moloney, Executive Vice President, Motorola, Inc.; President, Motorola Mobility |
|
|
|
Scott A. Crum, Senior Vice President, Motorola, Inc.; Senior Vice President, Chief People Officer, Motorola Mobility |
|
|
|
Geoffrey S. Roman, Senior Vice President, Motorola, Inc.; Senior Vice President, Chief Technology Officer, Motorola Mobility
|
Following the Separation, all listed executives are employed by the Company and are no longer employees of
the Former Parent.
Former Parent 2010 Compensation Actions
The revised timing of the Separation, which was initially anticipated to be completed in 2009, had a significant influence on pay
decisions for Dr. Jha. Dr. Jhas employment agreement permitted him to terminate employment for Good Reason and collect severance, in addition to receiving a significant contingent cash payment, if the Separation was not completed by
October 31, 2010. To address the revised timing of the Separation (and mitigate risks in the event of further Separation delays) and to incent Dr. Jha to execute the Separation based on the new timeline of the first quarter of 2011, Dr.
Jhas agreement was amended to extend the date on which he had the right to terminate for Good Reason to June 30, 2011. The Separation related equity award formulas in Dr. Jhas employment agreement were also modified as discussed in the
Employment Contracts section.

Dr. Jha without concurrence of the Former Parents Board.
Former Parent Compensation Mix
When making 2010 compensation decisions, the Former Parent Compensation Committee considered the total direct compensation levels for each
executive position against the median of similar positions in the Former Parents comparator group of large-cap, high-tech companies. The Former Parent intended to provide competitive total compensation, as well as competitive compensation for
each element comprising
total compensation. As a result, the Former Parent did not specifically limit one element of compensation in response to the amounts potentially realizable under other compensation elements.
However, certain limits were placed on benefits available under life and disability plans and investment plans, including the Former Parents pension plans, while ensuring competitiveness in the marketplace. The Former Parents
qualified plans are also subject to IRS limits. Although the Former Parent structured the executive compensation program to be targeted at the median of the comparator group, the exact percentile may differ by individual and is based on
their specific performance, experience, skill set, position and ability to impact business results.
In keeping with the
guiding principles of being business driven and performance differentiated, the Former Parent also structured the executive compensation program so that generally greater than 80% of Former Parents NEOs targeted
total compensation was delivered in the form of performance-based incentives; however, not all Motorola Mobility NEOs were the Former Parents NEOs and therefore may vary from this structure.
The following table highlights the specific 2010 target pay mix of each Motorola Mobility NEO:
|
* |
note that values for Mr. Moloney and Mr. Crum reflect annualized salary and target annual incentives; the LTI values reflect their new hire equity grants and
for Mr. Crum also includes the LRIP target. |
Former Parent 2010 Comparator Group
The Former Parent Compensation Committee reviewed the composition of the comparator group at
least annually to determine the appropriateness and applicability of the group for establishing its compensation programs and making individual pay decisions for NEOs. As a result of the
Companys transformation preceding the Separation, our comparator group changed.
In early 2010, the Former Parent used a
comparator group relevant for a company of the Former Parents size and multi-industry focus. This peer comparator group consisted of the following large-cap, high-tech companies that, in the aggregate, the Former Parent Compensation Committee
believed best represented the Former Parents portfolio of businesses and competition for executive talent at the time.
|
|
|
Alcatel-Lucent |
|
LM Ericsson Telephone Co. |
|
|
Apple Inc. |
|
Microsoft Corporation |
|
|
Cisco Systems, Inc. |
|
Nokia Corporation |
|
|
Dell, Inc. |
|
Nortel Networks Corp. |
|
|
EMC Corporation |
|
Oracle Corporation |
|
|
Hewlett-Packard Company |
|
QUALCOMM, Inc.
Sun Microsystems Inc. Texas Instruments, Inc. |
Intel Corporation |
|
International Business Machines Corp. |
|
2010 Transitional Comparator Group
Due to the unique circumstances of the Separation, the Former Parents Compensation Committee deemed it appropriate to establish
separate comparator groups for Motorola Mobility in the latter part of 2010 in order to benchmark companies of similar size and industry focus in planning for post-Separation compensation decisions.
The comparator group for Motorola Mobility was developed with input from the independent compensation consultant, Compensia, and
includes:
|
|
|
Advanced Micro Devices Inc. |
|
QUALCOMM Inc. |
|
|
Agilent Technologies Inc. |
|
Qwest Communications Intl Inc. |
|
|
Apple Inc. |
|
Research in Motion Ltd. |
|
|
Broadcom Corp. |
|
SanDisk Corp. |
|
|
eBay, Inc. |
|
Seagate Technology |
|
|
EMC Corporation |
|
Sprint Nextel Corp. |
|
|
Garmin Ltd. |
|
Telephone & Data Systems Inc. |
|
|
Micron Technology Inc. |
|
Texas Instruments, Inc. |
|
|
Nokia Corporation |
|
Western Digital Corp. |
|
|
NVIDIA Corp. |
|
Yahoo Inc. |
Our Compensation Committee will regularly
review the appropriateness of the comparator group.
To supplement comparator group data and obtain a more complete picture of the overall
compensation environment for the broader executive group and, from time to time, the NEOs, the Former Parent looked to multiple survey sources. During 2010, the Former Parent utilized supplemental data for some of the NEOs from the following survey
sources:
|
|
|
CHiPS Executive & Senior Management Total Compensation Survey, published by Pearl Meyer & Partners, LLC;
|
|
|
|
Towers Watson U.S. Compensation Data Bank (CDB) TriComp Executive Database; |
|
|
|
Radford Global Technology Survey, published by Radford, an Aon Hewitt consulting company; and |
|
|
|
U.S. Global Premium Executive Remuneration SuiteFortune 500® Organizations, published by Mercer. |
Because these surveys contain competitive compensation market data on a number of companies spanning different industries, market analysis involves narrowing the available information to data
cuts that most accurately reflect size, industry and competitive labor market.
The data cuts for the
supplemental data used by the Former Parent for some of the Named Executive Officers during 2010 were:
|
|
|
the 16 large-cap, high-tech companies that comprise the Former Parents comparator group and participate in the above surveys;
|
|
|
|
an expanded comparator group that includes other high-tech companies; |
|
|
|
all technology companies that participated in the above surveys; and |
|
|
|
all companies that participated in the above surveys. |
Former Parents Independent Consultant Engagement
The Former
Parent Compensation Committee engaged an independent consultant to advise them on the Former Parents compensation strategy and program design. The consultant conducted an in depth evaluation of the compensation program on a periodic basis
(typically every one or two years), and annually reviewed the specific compensation of Co-CEOs and the senior leadership team, including certain of our NEOs.
During 2010, the Former Parent Compensation Committee chose to continue the engagement of
Compensation Advisory Partners, LLC as its independent compensation consultant. Compensation Advisory Partners did not have any other business or consulting relationships with the Former Parent. The Former Parent Compensation Committee had
occasional discussions with Compensation Advisory Partners without management present to ensure impartiality on certain decisions.
In 2010, the Former Parent Compensation Committee also engaged Deloitte to consult on the amendments to Dr. Jhas employment agreement. Deloitte provided other services to the Former Parent, but did
not provide any other compensation consulting services to the Former Parent Compensation Committee. Motorola Mobility management engaged Deloitte separately on compensation matters during 2010 to support the Company in preparation for the Separation
and management (not our Compensation Committee) continues to engage Deloitte.
Prior to the Separation, the Former Parent
Compensation Committee decided to engage another compensation consultant, Compensia as the compensation consultant to our Compensation Committee for Motorola Mobility compensation matters. Compensia does not have any other direct or indirect
business relationships with either the Former Parent or Motorola Mobility. Our Compensation Committee has only engaged Compensia as its independent consultant and does not use Deloitte.

2010 Named
Executive Officer Compensation
Base Salary
Base salary is a component of the compensation program designed to provide market competitive fixed compensation to attract and retain
qualified talent. Base salary levels for each NEO were generally
targeted at the median of the comparator group, but the exact percentile may differ by individual. The Former Parent Compensation Committee had the discretion to deviate from the targeted median
when an NEOs performance, experience and specific skill set warranted such a variation. In response to the economic downturns impact on the business, annual salary increases were not provided to most employees, including NEOs, in 2010.
In addition, Dr. Jha took a 25% voluntary reduction in his base salary during 2009 and 2010.
Short-Term Incentives
Short-term incentives are a component of the compensation program designed to reward executives based on achievement
against the established short-term performance goals and individual performance goals that support the broader business strategy. The MIP is an annual cash incentive plan that applied in 2010 to all employees (excluding those employees participating
in a sales or other incentive plan), including NEOs.
The objectives of MIP were to:
|
|
|
Focus employees attention on achievement of the critical operating goals of the business. |
|
|
|
Link employee rewards to their individual contribution in achieving business results. |
|
|
|
Provide pay opportunities that were competitive with comparator companies in order to attract and retain a high-performing workforce.
|
MIP Incentive Formula
MIP awards were a function of an individuals target incentive opportunity, annual business performance and individual performance. The payout value of a MIP award to each individual is based on the
following formula:

MIP Individual Incentive Target
Individual Incentive Targets are based on market- competitive data and are established as a percentage of
eligible earnings. At the beginning of each year, the Former Parent Compensation Committee designated individual target levels for each NEO. For 2010, Individual Incentive Targets for NEOs were
generally targeted at the median of the Former Parents comparator group.

MIP Business
Performance Factor
At the beginning of each year, the Former Parent Compensation Committee established performance targets
for both the company as a whole and for specified business segments. Business Performance Factors, determined from actual performance results which impact the earned award, can range from 0% (no award paid) for below minimum financial performance to
130% for exceptional performance. The 2010 performance targets for the NEOs were based on corporate and business segment goals as follows:

|
|
|
Dr. Jha |

70% Mobile Devices (MDb) + Home 30% Enterprise Mobility Solutions (EMS) + Networks |
|
Higher weighting was placed on the Motorola Mobility businesses that Dr. Jha led while still acknowledging his ability to impact the overall performance of the
Former Parent. |
|
|
|
Messrs. Rothman, Moloney and Crum |
|
100% Mobile Devices + Home |
|
Mr. Rothman was the senior finance executive for Motorola Mobility (Mobile Devices + Home). Mr. Moloney was rehired in August 2010 as President of Motorola Mobility (Mobile Devices
+ Home). Mr. Crum was hired in July 2010 as the senior human resources executive for Motorola Mobility (Mobile Devices + Home). |
|
|
|
Mr. Roman |
|
57% Home 43%
Mobile Devices + Home |
|
Mr. Roman worked 210 days of the year in Home, the remainder in Motorola Mobility (Mobile Devices + Home). |
In 2010, business segment and corporate goals were established based on Operating
Earnings (OE) and Controllable Free Cash Flow (CFCF), which were key determinants in driving the short-term success in the businesses and what the Former Parent believed impacted stockholder value creation in the longer term.
OE carried a 65% weight in determining the Business Performance Factors. OE for incentive plan purposes was defined
according to GAAP, excluding the effect of the following items: (1) reorganization, asset impairment, extraordinary, unusual and/or non-recurring items of gain or loss, separately identified in the Former Parents quarterly earnings press
releases; (2) changes in tax or accounting regulations or laws; (3) the effect of discontinued operations; (4) the effect of a significant merger or acquisition and (5) expenses related to share-based compensation, intangible
amortization, and unallocated incentive and function costs.
CFCF carried a 35% weight in determining the Business Performance Factors. CFCF for
incentive plan purposes was defined as operating cash flow according to GAAP, excluding cash flow related to: (1) income taxes; (2) non-operating income or expense; and (3) unallocated incentive and function costs, less capital
expenditures. (A capital expenditure is defined as the original cost of acquiring property, plant and equipment, as reported in the investing section of the cash flow statement per GAAP).
At the end of each plan year, the Former Parent Compensation Committee reviewed full year performance and the corresponding management
recommendations regarding each Business Performance Factor (BPF). The Former Parent Compensation Committee exercised its discretion and approved certain adjustments to the final BPFs for the 2010 MIP. The results from the discontinued
operations of the Networks business and the MIRS Communications
business, including the impact of divesting the MIRS business, were included for determination of our 2010 MIP BPFs. The Former Parent Compensation Committee believed this was an appropriate
adjustment since the Networks business was part of the Former Parent for all of 2010, and the 2010 BPF performance targets factored in the performance of both of these businesses.
2010 MIP Business
Performance Targets and Results
The following tables reflect the minimum, target and maximum levels for each of the 2010
MIP BPF measures that pertain to each of the NEOs, as well as the actual and adjusted (for the impact of the above noted exceptions) 2010 performance levels. Assuming business performance meets the minimum threshold for a payout, the BPF formula
allows for a range of 25% of the established target award level (at the minimum level of performance) to 130% of the established target award level (at the maximum level of performance).

2010 MIP Individual Performance Factor
Individual Performance Factors seek to establish a clear line of sight by linking the performance management process with the rewards
employees received. Individual performance is measured by both what an individual accomplishes (goal achievement) and how the individual accomplishes those goals (leadership behaviors). In light of the timing of our Separation, our
Compensation Committee, with the concurrence of our Board in the case of the Chairman and CEO, determined 2010 Individual Performance Factors (IPFs) for each NEO to account for differences in individual contribution and performance.
IPFs can range from 0 (no award paid) for poor performance to 1.3 (130% of the formula-driven award) for exceptional
performance.
2010 MIP Payouts
Based on the approved 2010 BPFs and IPFs, the actual 2010 MIP award for each NEO is set forth in the following table:

Dr. Jha voluntarily elected to forego $278,000 under MIP for 2010. |
Additionally, our Compensation Committee awarded discretionary bonuses to Dr. Jha and Mr. Rothman in recognition of their personal impact on improved business results and efforts to achieve the
Separation. Dr. Jha voluntarily elected to forego his full 2010 discretionary bonus of $426,000.
Long-Term Incentives
Many of the Former Parents employees participated in one or more of the long-term incentive (LTI)
programs, which were designed to promote a focus on long-term results, drive retention and align employees with the interests of the stockholders. The Former Parent considered several factors in the design of the LTI programs, including the need to
attract and retain top talent, the cost impact of equity expensing, the evolving regulatory landscape, the impact on stockholder dilution and the Former Parents long-term business strategy.
In 2010, the LTI programs were comprised of equity awards (consisting of stock options and
RSUs) and the three-year LRIP.
The 2010 LTI levels for NEOs were generally targeted at the 50th percentile of the comparator group, although the exact
percentile may differ by individual. All of our NEOs received equity awards in 2010 and all participated in the 2010-2012 LRIP cycle, except for Dr. Jha and Mr. Moloney.
Equity Awards
Equity awards are a component of the compensation program designed to encourage ownership, align interests to those of stockholders, reward increases in the value of our Common Stock and enhance long-term
retention of top talent. In May 2010, the Former Parent Compensation Committee granted equity to approximately 30,000 employees of Former Parent, as part of the annual equity award process. Both components of the annual equity grants, stock options
and RSUs, will vest and become exercisable in three equal annual installments. The stock options expire ten years from the date of grant. All of these grants, as well as any other outstanding equity grants were replaced by substitute equity awards
adjusted to align employees equity to the Common Stock of our new Company at Separation.
The exercise price of the
stock options was set at the closing price of the stock on the date of grant. The Former Parent did not structure the timing of equity award grants to precede or coincide with the disclosure of material non-public information. Grants made outside
the annual equity grant cycle (e.g., new hire, promotion and special recognition grants) are made on the first trading day of the month following the date of hire/promotion/recognition. Since 2002, the Former Parents grant date for the annual
equity award has always been within a few days of the annual stockholders meeting in early May.
In 2010, all NEOs, except
Messrs. Moloney and Crum who were not employees at the time, received stock options and RSUs as part of the annual equity award. Messrs. Moloney and Crum received grants in connection with joining the Former Parent. When planning for the annual
equity award, it was the Former Parent Compensation Committees practice to establish individual awards based on a review of each NEOs current compensation profile, external market pricing data, historical and outstanding equity grants
and recent individual performance level in determining the number of stock options and RSUs to grant. Additionally, new hire, retention, and recognition grants may be awarded to employees.
The table below details equity granted to each NEO in 2010 in Former Parent RSUs and Stock Options.

For 2011, Motorola
Mobilitys annual equity grants were accelerated to January replacing the May grant for 2011. In future years the annual equity grant is expected to be within a few days of the annual meeting in May. The annual equity grants were accelerated to
coincide with the formation of a new, independent company and to align the interests of equity recipients with stockholders at an earlier date.
The 2011 annual grants included some one-time, larger than usual equity awards made to key individuals critical to the success of the Company as part of the Separation and formation of our new Company,
including to the CEO as described in Employment Agreement with Sanjay K. Jha.
Beginning in 2011, for
senior executives, equity is intended to represent 100% of the LTI, rather than cash. Stock options, particularly, represent approximately two-thirds of the LTI value to ensure rewards are at-risk, based on performance, and aligned with
stockholders. In furtherance of our pay-for-performance and retention of key talent goals, the 2011 grant process used new talent assessment factors including the criticality of role and strategic potential of the individual and other factors. This
assessment was designed to increase grant differentiation for superior potential and performance with awards for a more limited number of recipients expected to have the greatest impact on the Companys future results.
Long-Range Incentive Plan
The Former Parents Long-Range Incentive Plan (LRIP) is a performance-based, multi-year incentive plan that our Former Parent provided to our senior executives, including the NEOs
(excluding Dr. Jha pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement
and Mr. Moloney, pursuant to his rehire offer). During 2010, there were three concurrent LRIP cycles in effect, each with a three-year performance cycle:
|
1. |
2008-2010 LRIP Cycle: Concluded on December 31, 2010 with no payout. |
|
2. |
2009-2011 LRIP Cycle: Originally targeted to conclude on December 31, 2011, but terminated at Separation with performance ending on January 3, 2011.
|
|
3. |
2010-2012 LRIP Cycle: Originally targeted to conclude on December 31, 2012, but terminated at Separation with performance ending on January 3, 2011.
|
We have not adopted a LRIP plan for Motorola Mobility and instead have rebalanced our long-term incentives to
be delivered in the form of equity awards.
LRIP Termination at Separation
At Separation, the Former Parents 2009-2011 and 2010-2012 LRIP cycles were terminated for all participants and
the 2008-2010 cycle concluded with no payout. LRIP awards are divided into (1) those pro rated as earned from the beginning of the cycle until the date of the Separation (for example, 2/3rds are earned for the 2009-2011 cycle for the completed
years 2009 and 2010) and (2) those pro rated from the date of the Separation through the end of the original cycle as the remaining target for retention purposes (for example, 1/3rd is remaining target for the 2009-2011 cycle with 2011 not yet completed). Our Compensation Committee
determined that structuring as described above for the remaining target was necessary as the LRIP program was being eliminated.
LRIP Earned until Separation. For LRIP awards earned until Separation, the performance of both LRIP cycles was measured as of the
last date that the Former Parents common stock traded, which was January 3, 2011. The total shareholder return (TSR) performance of the Former Parent and the comparator group was measured from the beginning of each LRIP cycle
through the last date that the Former Parents common stock was traded and Former Parents TSR ranking was determined accordingly under both of these LRIP cycles. The corresponding LRIP Payout Factor was applied to each legacy
participants Individual LRIP Incentive Target. The earned payout amounts, which were pro rated to reflect the amount of time each LRIP cycle was in existence prior to termination, were reviewed and approved by our
Compensation Committee in January 2011. Actual cash payments are earned by legacy participants, but will not be made until the original cycle end dates in early 2012 for the 2009-2011 LRIP cycle
and early 2013 for the 2010-2012 LRIP cycle.
LRIP Remaining Target Retention Value. If a legacy LRIP participant
remains an employee of the Company through the end of 2011 and 2012, the respective original cycle end dates of the Former Parents 2009-2011 and 2010-2012 LRIP cycles, such legacy LRIP participant will receive the remaining LRIP target amount
paid in cash by the Company at that time. For retention purposes, a legacy LRIP participant must remain an employee through the end of the respective LRIP cycle to receive the remaining target amounts.
2008-2010 LRIP
In January 2011, the Former Parent Compensation Committee reviewed the performance of the 2008-2010 LRIP and determined no payments would be made since the minimum performance threshold for payment
was not achieved. No new awards were granted in their place.
2009-2011 LRIP and 2010-2012 LRIP
The 2009-2011 and 2010-2012 LRIP programs have the same design and solely focus on the Former Parents three-year TSR relative to the
three-year TSR of the identified comparator group.
The table below sets forth the design parameters for the 2009-2011 and
2010-2012 LRIP plans:

Individual Incentive Target
The Former Parent Compensation Committee
designated LRIP Individual Incentive Targets based on market competitive data. Targets were established as a percentage of each participants base salary at the start of the LRIP performance cycle.
TSR Rank Payout Factor
The TSR Rank Payout Factor was calculated in a two step process:
Step 1: Measure the three-year TSR for the Former Parent and each of the companies in the peer group.
TSR is calculated as follows:

Executive
Benefits and Perquisites
To enhance the ability to attract and retain top talent in a highly competitive labor market,
the Former Parent sought to align the executive total compensation program offerings with those commonly provided by companies in the peer comparator group. To ensure the Former Parent remained competitive, the core elements of the total
compensation programincluding cash and equity based compensation planswere supplemented by a few executive-only benefits and perquisites. The executive benefits and perquisites are described below.
As a new public company, we have adjusted these benefits as noted and will continue to review and
evaluate the appropriateness of these benefits and perquisites.
Change in Control Protection. The Former Parent maintained a Board-approved change in control plan (the CIC
Plan) which covered the NEOs and other members of the senior executive team. The Former Parent Board considered the maintenance of an effective and stable management team as essential to protecting and enhancing the value of the Former Parent
for the benefit of stockholders. To that end, the Former Parent recognized that the possibility of a change in control may exist from time to time and that this possibility, and the uncertainty and questions it may raise amongst the senior
management team, may result in the distraction, and potential departure, of management personnel to the detriment of the Former Parent and stockholders. The change in control provisions helped to encourage the continued attention and dedication of
senior management to their assigned duties without the distraction that may arise from the possibility of a change in control event.
The CIC Plan employed a double trigger before benefits are paid to a plan participant. In other words, in order for severance benefits to be paid, both of the following events must be
triggered: (1) a change in control must occur, and (2) an executive must be involuntarily terminated for a reason other than cause or the executive must leave for good reason within 24 months of the change in
control. For definitions and a description of benefits provided under the CIC Plan, please refer to the section called Former Parent Change in Control Arrangements.
The purpose of the Change in Control Plan is to encourage the continued attention and dedication of members of the Companys
management to their assigned duties without the distraction which may arise from the possibility of a change in control. We have adopted a Change in Control Plan substantially similar to the Former Parents Change in Control Plan for legacy
participants in recognition of the successorship clause and an amendment/notice clause in the Former Parent legacy plan that anticipates three years advance notice to participants of amendment or termination of the plan. All employees hired or
promoted on or after January 5, 2011 who are eligible to participate in the Change in Control Plan will have more limited benefits under the Change in Control Plan. New participation is limited by our Compensation Committee and not all of the
elected officers of the Company are expected to be included, significantly reducing the number of
eligible employees under the Change in Control Plan in the future. Furthermore, the severance multiple for senior vice presidents becoming eligible to participate in the Change in Control Plan on
or after January 5, 2011 is reduced from 3- to 2-times base salary and bonus. New participants will not be eligible for a tax gross up for benefits subject to the parachute payment excise tax. Moreover, the Company notified legacy plan
participants that it intends to make material changes to benefits in three years from notification, including eliminating the tax gross ups, and reducing benefits to no more than 2-times base salary and bonus.
Use of Corporate Aircraft. Dr. Jha has strong visibility in the media and other public forums, as well as significant
amounts of private and personal information readily available about him on the Internet. As a result, while serving as Co-CEO for the Former Parent, Dr. Jha was required to use corporate aircraft for all personal travel as part of the Former
Parents corporate security program.
As Chairman and CEO of the Company, we expect this practice to continue.
Furthermore, with major business facilities in various locations, Dr. Jha regularly commutes between these locations and his home and some of this travel is considered personal travel, the cost of which is described in the
Summary Compensation Table. In 2010, approximately 85% of his personal travel involved commuting to or from San Diego, California and business locations or meetings, primarily in San Jose, California and Libertyville,
Illinois. From time to time and on a limited basis, other executives are permitted to use aircraft for similar commuting or personal travel. The costs of personal use of corporate aircraft is imputed as income to the executive and no tax gross up is
provided for such usage, except as provided for in the event of a home relocation.
Relocation Benefits. We
provide and the Former Parent provided relocation and commuter benefits under relocation policies to employees, including the NEOs, who meet the criteria outlined in the policies. From time to time, in order to attract a particular employee and/or
pursuant to an employment agreement, such as in the case of Dr. Jha, Mr. Rothman and Mr. Crum, arrangements may be made that offer enhanced benefits beyond the terms of the relocation policy available to other employees. During 2010, Dr.
Jha received certain enhanced relocation benefits, primarily temporary housing expenses and a tax gross up. In 2011, Dr. Jhas housing allowance will not be grossed up. Mr. Rothman received certain enhanced relocation benefits, primarily
a commuting allowance, in addition to other benefits under the standard relocation policy. Mr. Crum also received a commuting allowance per the terms of his employment offer letter.
Executive Financial Planning Program. The Executive Financial Planning Program provided senior management, including
NEOs, with comprehensive financial planning assistance designed to help them achieve the highest value from their compensation package. The annual allowance for NEOs was up to $16,500 in the first and last year of receiving this benefit, and up to
$12,000 for the years in between the first and last years participation. This benefit is imputed as income to the executive and no tax gross up is provided.
Legal Fees. As part of his employment agreement, Dr. Jha engaged legal counsel to review and negotiate amendments to his employment agreement. Legal fee reimbursement and tax gross ups on
those legal fees were provided during 2008, 2009 and 2010, as required per the terms of his employment agreement.
Deferred Compensation Plan. Effective January 1, 2008, the Former Parent temporarily closed their Deferred
Compensation Plan (the Deferred Compensation Plan) to new deferrals due to low participation. The plan has remained closed since taking this action. When active, the Deferred Compensation Plan was a non-qualified deferred compensation
plan that is unfunded and unsecured, and allowed eligible executives, including NEOs, the opportunity to defer taxes on their base salary and cash incentive compensation. The Former Parent did not contribute to this plan. While the plan was not
intended to provide above-market or preferential earnings (as these terms are defined under SEC regulations) on compensation deferred under the plan, in 2010 the actual earnings on Mr. Moloneys account were above-market under SEC
regulations.
Motorola Mobility does not offer a deferred compensation plan.
Broad-based Employee Benefits. As U.S. employees, NEOs had the opportunity to participate in a number of benefit programs
that were generally available to all regular U.S. employees. These benefits include: (1) healthcare plans (medical, dental and wellness programs); (2) life and disability plans (group life insurance, business travel accident insurance, and
short-term and long-term disability income plans); (3) investment plans (the 401(k) Plan and employee stock purchase plan, as well as previously existing
pension plans at the Former Parent that were available to employees who began employment prior to January 1, 2005) and (4) work/life plans (programs that assist with daily needs such as
childcare, adoption assistance, dependent care account and long-term care insurance).
Pension Plans. A pension
plan was offered by our Former Parent to pension-eligible employees hired before January 1, 2005. The Former Parent offered the Portable Pension and the Traditional Pension. The Former Parent also offered a non-qualified plan, the Supplemental
Pension Plan (the SPP), to highly-compensated employees whose qualified pension plan benefits are reduced by annual salary limits imposed by the IRS.
On December 15, 2008, the Former Parent Board determined that, effective March 1, 2009, all future benefit accruals and compensation increases used to compute benefit accruals would
automatically cease for all individuals who were participants under the Pension Plan and/or SPP as of February 28, 2009. However, participants continued to earn vesting credit towards their Pension Plan benefit on and after March 1, 2009.
The SPP was further amended to freeze any future participation in the SPP after January 1, 2009, unless such participation was due to a prior contractual entitlement. Additional information regarding these and other plans are included in the
Retirement Plans section.
Motorola Mobility does not offer U.S. pension benefits.
Other Compensation Policies and Practices
Stock Ownership Requirements
To ensure strong alignment of senior
management with the interests of stockholders, our Chairman and CEO is required to maintain stock equal to six times his base salary and we are reviewing our stock ownership guidelines as a new public company for the rest of our senior management.
The Former Parents stock ownership requirements applicable for 2010 are shown below.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Minimum Stock Ownership Required |
|
Chief Executive Officer |
|
|
6 times base salary |
|
Executive Vice Presidents and direct reports to the CEO |
|
|
3 times base salary |
|
Senior Vice Presidents (other than direct reports to the CEO) |
|
|
2 times base salary |
|
Each executive subject to the guidelines must have met their ownership requirement within
five years from the date they first become subject to their applicable ownership requirement.
For purposes of meeting the
stock ownership requirement, stock means shares of Common Stock owned outright, restricted stock, RSUs and stock owned in benefit plans such as the 401(k) savings plan and the employee stock purchase plan.
Recoupment of Incentive Compensation Awards Upon Restatement of Financial Results
We maintain comprehensive audit policies and practices in order to identify, and ideally prevent, misconduct on the part of employees as
it relates to managing business performance and reporting financial results. In addition, we regularly conduct a risk assessment on compensation programs and practices, and reported on the results of this assessment to the Former Parent Compensation
Committee in 2010 and now report to our Compensation Committee, as a means to ensure programs did not create undue risk or exposure to the Company and its stockholders.
If, in the opinion of the independent directors of our Board, the Companys financial results require restatement due to the misconduct by one or more of our executive officers (including the NEOs),
the independent directors have the discretion to remedy the misconduct by directing the Company to recover all or a portion of any incentive compensation received by the executive as a result of the misconduct, as well as cancel all or a portion of
the outstanding equity-based awards held by the executive (commonly referred to as a clawback policy). In addition, the independent directors may also seek to recoup any gains realized by the executive with respect to their equity-based
awards, including exercised stock options and vested RSUs, regardless of when they were issued.
The independent directors may
seek a number of remedies, all of which are subject to a number of conditions and include: (1) the executive officer in question engaged in the intentional misconduct, (2) the bonus or incentive compensation to be recouped was calculated based upon
the financial results that were restated, and (3) the incentive compensation calculated under the restated financial results is less than the amount actually paid or awarded.
In addition, the independent directors may take other disciplinary action, including,
without limitation: (1) adjustment of future compensation of the executive officer, (2) termination of the executive officers employment, (3) pursuit of any and all remedies available in law and/or equity in any country and
(4) pursuit of such other action as may fit the circumstances of the particular case. The independent directors may take into account penalties or punishments imposed by third parties, such as law enforcement agencies, regulators or other
authorities. The independent directors power to determine the appropriate punishment for the wrongdoers was in addition to, and not in replacement of, remedies imposed by such third parties and is in addition to any right of recoupment against
the CEO or CFO under Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
Impact of Favorable Accounting and Tax Treatment
on Compensation Program Design
Favorable accounting and tax treatment of the various elements of the total compensation
program is an important, but not the sole, consideration in its design. Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code limits the deductibility of certain items of compensation paid to the CEO and certain other highly compensated executive
officers (together, the covered officers) to $1,000,000 annually, unless such compensation qualifies as performance-based compensation. The short-term and long-term incentive programs have been designed to provide for
performance-based compensation. In particular, in order to satisfy the Section 162(m) qualification requirements, under the Former Parent 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan, each year the Former Parent Compensation Committee allocated an incentive
pool equal to 5% of the consolidated operating earnings among the covered officers under MIP. Once the amount of the pool and the specific allocations are determined at the end of the year, the Former Parent Compensation Committee retained
negative discretion to reduce (but not increase) the amount of any award payable from the incentive pool to the covered officers, as determined by the amount payable to each covered officer based on the MIP performance criteria and
actual results.
For 2010, the Former Parent Compensation Committee exercised this discretion to reduce the
value of the awards payable under the incentive pool to the value of each such covered officers 2010 MIP award. For a discussion of the covered officers 2010 MIP awards, see Short-Term Incentives. The Former Parent
Compensation Committee reserved the right to provide for compensation to executive officers that may not be deductible pursuant to Section 162(m).
Securities Trading Policies
All directors, officers, employees and
consultants are prohibited from trading in securities of the Company, directly or through others, while aware of material nonpublic information relating to the Company and must not disclose material nonpublic information to others or recommend that
others trade in related securities when they are aware of material nonpublic information (often called tipping). Similarly, directors, officers, employees and consultants must not trade in the securities of other companies that do
business with the Company if they are aware of material nonpublic information about the other companies.
In
addition, executives and certain other employees, including NEOs, may not engage in any transaction in which they may profit from short-term speculative swings in the value of securities. This includes short sales (selling borrowed
securities that the seller hopes can be purchased at a lower price in the future) or short sales against the box (selling owned, but not yet delivered, securities), put and call options (publicly available rights
to sell or buy securities within a certain period of time at a specified price), and hedging transactions, such as zero-cost collars (a type of strategy that secures a range of return with a floor and a cap), forward sale
contracts (a privately negotiated agreement to deliver shares at a set price at some point in the future) and other hedging-related transactions. Our securities trading policy is designed to ensure compliance with all applicable insider
trading rules.
The following Report of Compensation and Leadership Committee on Executive
Compensation and related disclosure shall not be deemed incorporated by reference by any general statement incorporating this Proxy Statement into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 (the Securities Act) or under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act), except to the extent that the Company specifically incorporates this information by reference, and shall not otherwise be deemed filed under such Acts.
REPORT OF COMPENSATION AND LEADERSHIP COMMITTEE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
During 2010, Director James Stengel was the Chair of, and Directors Jon Barfield, Keith Meister and Thomas Meredith served on, the
Compensation and Leadership Committee (the Committee) of Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc. This Committee did not determine the 2010 compensation of the named executive officers, other than with respect to determining individual
performance factors under the Former Parents 2010 annual cash incentive program, MIP. In 2011, we acted to address the Companys current pay practices to better align them with todays market practices and the pay practices of our
new peer group companies. We will continue to assess our pay practices and adjust them as permitted.
The Committee has
reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis required by Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K with Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc. management. Based on such review and discussions, the Committee recommended
to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A and incorporated by reference into Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc.s 2010 Annual Report on
Form 10-K.
Respectfully submitted,
James R. Stengel, Chairman
Jon E. Barfield

Salary includes amounts deferred pursuant to salary reduction arrangements under our Former Parents 401(k) Plan. Between January 1, 2009 and July 1,
2010, our Former Parent suspended its matching contributions to the 401(k) Plan. |
(2) |
The amounts in columns (e) and (f) reflect the aggregate grant date fair value of the stock and option awards granted in the respective fiscal
year as computed in accordance with ASC Topic 718, excluding the effect of estimated forfeitures. Assumptions used in the calculation of these amounts are included in Note 8, Share-Based Compensation Plans and Other Incentive
Plans in Motorola Mobility Holding, Inc.s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. These amounts reflect the SEC valuation method, which is the aggregate grant date fair value of the equity awards, rather than
the dollar amounts recognized that year for financial statement reporting purposes. As such, in the year of a grant, the full aggregate grant date fair value appears, rather than the portion being expensed for financial statement reporting purposes
in that year. |
(3) |
For 2010, the amounts in column (g) consist of the following earned (i) under our Former Parents Incentive Plan (MIP) and
(ii) under the 2009-2011 and 2010-2012 cycles of our Former Parents Long-Range Incentive Plan (LRIP), which were terminated in connection with the Separation from our Former Parent. |

For 2009 and 2008, the
amounts in column (g) are the awards earned under MIP. There were no payments under any LRIP cycle ending in 2009 or 2008. LRIP amounts earned in this table for the 2009-2011 and 2010-2012 cycles are pro rated from the beginning of the
cycle until the date of Separation but are not payable until after the original cycle termination date of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
(4) |
Dr. Jha voluntarily elected to take a 25% decrease in base salary for 2010 and 2009 and forego any 2008 bonuses under MIP, including his contractually guaranteed
cash bonus of $2,400,000. Although foregone and not received, the $2,400,000 bonus is included in the table for 2008 in accordance with the SEC rules and interpretations. |
(5) |
These amounts in the Bonus and Foregone Bonus columns reflects discretionary bonuses for 2010 in recognition of Dr. Jhas and
Mr. Rothmans personal impact on improved business results, together with their efforts to achieve the Separation of Motorola Mobility from our Former Parent. Dr. Jha voluntarily elected to forego $278,000 under MIP and a discretionary bonus of
$426,000. Although foregone and not received, these amounts are included in the table for 2010 in accordance with the SEC rules and interpretations. |
(6) |
This amount consists of (i) perquisite costs for Dr. Jha of $328,564, including costs for personal use of company aircraft of $186,189, temporary housing
benefits of $61,243, personal use of car and driver of $50,633, legal fees of $25,348, income imputed for guest attendance at a Company event and costs for security system monitoring, (ii) tax gross ups of $55,159 primarily for temporary
housing benefits and legal fees, and (iii) contributions made by our Former Parent to the 401(k) Plan in the amount of $4,900. The personal use of the Company aircraft and car and driver were required by our Former Parent as part of a board
approved corporate security program. Furthermore, with major business facilities in various locations, Dr. Jha regularly commutes between these locations and his home and some of this travel is considered personal travel. In 2010, approximately 85%
of his personal travel involved commuting to or from San Diego, California and business locations or meetings, primarily in San Jose, California and Libertyville, Illinois. The amount reported as personal use of Company aircraft is net of a
reimbursement made by Dr. Jha pursuant to the Aircraft Time Sharing Agreement dated May 4, 2009 between our Former Parent and Dr. Jha. The incremental cost to our Former Parent for Dr. Jhas personal use of Company aircraft
is calculated by multiplying the number of hours Dr. Jha travels in a particular plane by the direct cost per flight hour per plane. Direct costs include fuel, maintenance, labor, parts, loading and parking fees, catering and crew. The
incremental cost to our Former Parent for Dr. Jhas personal use of a car and driver is calculated by adding the costs for the driver, including salary and benefits, on a pro rata basis to the cost of fuel for driving to and from work and
company events. |
(7) |
For 2010, the aggregate change in present value from December 31, 2009 to December 31, 2010 of Mr. Rothmans benefits under our Former Parents
Pension Plan was $9,224, under the General Instrument Pension Plan was $4,384 and under the General Instrument SERP Plan (GI SERP) was $461. For 2009, the aggregate change in present value from December 31, 2008 to December 31,
2009 of Mr. Rothmans benefits under all pension plans, including benefits under the General Instrument Pension Plan and the GI SERP was negative and is therefore reflected as $0. During that period, the change in present value of his
benefit under our Former Parents Pension Plan was $33,600 and under our Former Parents Supplemental Pension Plan (SPP) was ($49,770). The change in present value of his benefit under the General Instrument Pension Plan was
$7,651 and under the GI SERP was $803. The negative change in SPP present value is a result of our Former Parent freezing all future benefit accruals and compensation increases under the SPP, effective March 1, 2009, when calculated with the
assumptions under SEC rules. |
(8) |
This amount consists of (i) perquisite costs for Mr. Rothman of $160,397, including relocation benefits of $130,342, costs for personal use of Company
aircraft, financial planning and income imputed for guest attendance at Company events, (ii) tax gross ups of $19,571 primarily for relocation benefits, and (iii) contributions made by our Former Parent to the 401(k) Plan in the amount of

On September 1, 2010, Mr. Moloney rejoined our Former Parent as Executive Vice President and President, Motorola Mobility. Pursuant to Mr. Moloneys
employment offer letter dated July 30, 2010, the Company provided a sign-on bonus to Mr. Moloney of $325,000. This amount reflects the first installment of such sign-on bonus with the second installment in March 2011.
|
(10) |
These amounts reflect the aggregate grant date fair value of equity granted to Mr. Moloney in connection with his employment offer letter.
|
(11) |
For 2010, this amount consists of: (i) $11,691 in earnings on nonqualified deferred compensation in excess of the threshold for 2010 above-market
earnings established pursuant to SEC rules, and (ii) the aggregate change in present value from December 31, 2009 to December 31, 2010 of Mr. Moloneys benefits under our Former Parents Pension Plan of $12,940, under
the General Instrument Pension Plan of $19,235 and under the General Instrument SERP Plan (GI SERP) of $8,594. For 2009, this amount consists of $25,283 in earnings on nonqualified deferred compensation in excess of the threshold for
2009 above-market earnings established pursuant to SEC rules. The aggregate change in present value from December 31, 2008 to December 31, 2009 of Mr. Moloneys benefits under all pension plans, including benefits
under the General Instrument Pension Plan and the GI SERP was negative and therefore is reflected as $0. During 2009, the change in the present value of his benefits under our Former Parents Pension Plan was $46,849 and under our Former
Parents Supplemental Pension Plan (SPP) was ($142,336). The change in present value of his benefit under the General Instrument Pension Plan was $32,799 and under the GI SERP was $14,655. The negative change in SPP present value is
a result of our Former Parent freezing all future benefit accruals and compensation increases under the SPP, effective March 1, 2009, when calculated with the assumptions under SEC rules. For 2008, the aggregate change in present value from
December 31, 2007 to December 31, 2008 of Mr. Moloneys benefits under our Former Parents Pension Plan was $8,763, under the SPP was |
|
$13,953, under the General Instrument Pension Plan was $11,145 and under the GI SERP was $4,979. In connection with the Companys acquisition of General Instrument Corporation in January of
2000, the value of Mr. Moloneys benefits under the General Instrument Pension Plan and the GI SERP were frozen as of December 31, 2000. |
(12) |
This amount is our Former Parents contribution to the 401(k) Plan for Mr. Moloney in the amount of $4,900. |
(13) |
On March 5, 2010, as a result of his decision to leave our Former Parent, Mr. Moloney forfeited all unvested stock options and RSUs. Mr. Moloney returned
to our Former Parent as an executive officer on September 1, 2010. |
(14) |
On July 19, 2010, Mr. Crum joined our Former Parent as Senior Vice President, Chief People Officer, Motorola Mobility. Pursuant to Mr. Crums
employment offer letter dated June 16, 2010, our Former Parent provided him a sign-on bonus of $250,000. This amount reflects the first installment of such sign-on bonus with the second installment in July 2011. |
(15) |
These amounts reflect the aggregate grant date fair value of equity granted to Mr. Crum in connection with his employment offer letter. |
(16) |
For 2010, the aggregate change in present value from December 31, 2009 to December 31, 2010 of Mr. Crums benefits under the General Instrument
Pension Plan was $6,557 and under the General Instrument SERP Plan was $1,695. Mr. Crum participated in these plans prior to January 2000 as an employee of General Instrument. |
(17) |
This amount is perquisite costs for Mr. Crum of $80,670, including commuting benefits of $75,250 and financial planning. |
(18) |
This amount is a retention bonus awarded to Mr. Roman. |
(19) |

Pension Plan was $17,353, under our Former Parents Supplemental Pension Plan was $17,474, under the General Instrument Pension Plan was $26,480 and under the General Instrument SERP Plan was $19,038. |
(20) |
This amount is our Former Parents contribution to the 401(k) Plan for Mr. Roman in the amount of $4,900. |
Compensation Proportion
The executive compensation program of our Former Parent is structured so that more than two-thirds of senior executives targeted
total compensation is at-risk (in the form of equity grants, awards under long-term incentives and awards under the annual incentive plan MIP) and is therefore dependent upon the financial results. In determining the at-risk
proportion between cash and equity among the total mix of compensation, our Former Parent considers the senior executives position and responsibilities, the senior executives ability to impact financial results, and the competitive
market for executive talent in our industry. Our Former Parent sought to balance the components of the compensation program appropriately in light of these factors. For a further discussion of our Former Parents or our compensation
methodology, see the Compensation Discussion and Analysis. For a discussion of the material terms of employment agreements with our Named Executive Officers, see Employment Contracts. For a discussion of the
material terms of the 2010 grants of plan based awards, see the footnotes to the Grants of Plan-Based Awards in 2010 table and the Compensation Discussion and Analysis.
Adjustment of Equity in Connection with the Separation from Motorola, Inc.
In connection with the Separation from Motorola, Inc. on January 4, 2011, employee equity awards previously granted by Motorola, Inc.
for employees of either Motorola Mobility or Motorola, Inc. (renamed Motorola Solutions, Inc.)(our Former Parent) were replaced by substitute equity awards adjusted to align employees equity to the common stock of the employing
company. For Motorola Mobility, the equity adjustment factor (the Separation Adjustment Factor) was determined by dividing (1) the closing stock price of Motorola, Inc. on January 3, 2011, the day before the Separation, by
(2) the volume weighted average of Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc. Common Stock on January 4, 2011, its first trading day. The Separation Adjustment Factor is designed to retain the fair value of such equity awards, as provided for in the
Amended and Restated Employee Matters Agreement among Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc., Motorola Mobility, Inc. and our Former Parent effective as of July 31, 2010 (the Employee Matters Agreement) as further described in
Certain Relationships and Related Person TransactionsAgreements with Our Former Parent. The adjusted equity awards that a holder received in connection with the Separation were subject to substantially the same terms,
vesting conditions and other restrictions, if any, that were applicable prior to the Separation.

The stock awards, option awards and option exercise prices in columns (i), (j) and (k) and the explanatory footnotes have been converted to
relate to Motorola Mobility Common Stock using the Separation Adjustment Factor discussed in Adjustment of Equity in Connection with the Separation from Motorola, Inc. to provide more meaningful disclosure to Motorola Mobility
stockholders. The aggregate grant date fair value of the stock and option awards in column (l) are computed in accordance with ASC Topic 718, excluding the effect of estimated forfeitures. |
(2) |
In the aggregate, the RSUs described in this table represent approximately 0.12% of the total shares of Motorola Mobility Common Stock outstanding on January 31,
2011. RSUs granted on or after May 1, 2006 are not eligible for dividend equivalent rights. Each of these RSU awards were granted under our Former Parents Omnibus Incentive Plan of 2006 then replaced with substitute awards under the
Motorola Mobility Legacy Incentive Plan at the Separation. All RSUs entitle the holder to acquire shares of Common Stock and were valued at the fair market value at the time of the grant. Until March 1, 2007, Grant Date Fair Market
Value was defined as the closing price for a share of our Former Parents common stock on the last trading day before the date of grant for equity awards. For equity award grants on or after March 1, 2007, Grant Date Fair
Market Value (also termed Fair Market Value) is defined as the closing price for a share of our Former Parents common stock or our Common Stock on the date of grant. |
(3) |
In the aggregate, the options described in this table are exercisable for approximately 0.35% of the total shares of Motorola Mobility Common Stock outstanding on
January 31, 2011. Each of these option awards were granted under our Former Parents Omnibus Incentive Plan of 2006 then replaced with substitute awards under the Motorola Mobility Legacy Incentive Plan at the Separation. All options
entitle the holder to acquire shares of Common Stock. The options carry with them the right to elect to have shares withheld upon exercise and/or to deliver previously-acquired shares of Common Stock to satisfy tax-withholding requirements. Unvested
options are generally forfeited upon retirement. These options could expire earlier in certain situations. |
(4) |
The exercise price of option awards is based on the fair market value of our Former Parents common stock at the time of grant, then converted using the Separation
Adjustment Factor. See Adjustment of Equity in Connection with the Separation from Motorola, Inc. for further details. |
(5) |
These 2010 awards are made pursuant to the Motorola Incentive Plan (MIP) and are payable in cash. MIP is an annual pay-for-performance bonus plan that is
based upon a formula that combines business performance and individual performance. Awards may be $0 under the formula. Targets assume individual and business performance factors of 1.0. Awards under MIP are determined using a participants
eligible earnings (generally, base salary) for the plan year. Maximum assumes individual and business performance factors of 1.3. |
(6) |
On May 5, 2010, as part of our Former Parents annual broad-based employee equity grants, Dr. Jha was granted 120,375 RSUs, Mr. Rothman was granted
5,553 RSUs, and Mr. Roman was granted 6,039 RSUs. The restrictions on these RSUs lapse in three equal annual installments beginning on May 5, 2011. |
(7) |
On May 5, 2010, as part of our Former Parents annual broad-based employee equity grants, Dr. Jha was granted 647,804 options, Mr. Rothman was
granted 12,495 options, and Mr. Roman was granted 4,529 options. The options vest and become exercisable in three equal annual installments beginning on May 5, 2011. The options expire on May 5, 2020, 10 years from the date of grant.
|
(8) |
These grants are for the 2010-2012 cycle under the Motorola Long-Range Incentive Plan (LRIP). Awards under the 2010-2012 LRIP cycle are determined in
dollars but, at the discretion of the Former Parent Compensation and Leadership Committee, may be paid in cash or common stock. The measure/metric used is relative total shareholder return. On January 3, 2011, the 2010-2012 LRIP cycle was terminated
early with amounts earned to that date becoming earned though not payable until the original cycle end date. For a discussion of the LRIP, including the targets and plan mechanics, see Compensation Discussion and Analysis. The
amounts under Threshold assume the performance level necessary to generate an award was achieved. The amounts under Target assume performance factors of 1.0 based on a median three-year total shareholder return, which equates
to a payout of 100% of target. The amounts under Maximum would have been payable if our Former Parents three-year total shareholder return ranked first or second amongst the peer companies, which would be a significant
accomplishment, the probability of which is remote though possible. |
(9) |
On September 1, 2010, Mr. Moloney was granted 166,609 RSUs in connection with Mr. Moloneys employment offer letter. The restrictions on these RSUs

Option exercises and stock vested in columns (b) and (d) have been converted to relate to Motorola Mobility Common Stock using the Separation
Adjustment Factor discussed in Adjustment of Equity in Connection with the Separation from |
|
Motorola, Inc. to provide more meaningful disclosure to Motorola Mobility stockholders. These equity awards were settled in shares of our Former Parents common stock prior to
the Separation. No option exercises or stock vestings of Motorola Mobility stock occurred in 2010. |
(2) |
The Value Realized on Exercise represents the difference between the base (or exercise) price of the option shares and the market price of the option shares
at exercise. The value realized was determined without considering any taxes that may have been owed. |
(3) |
The Value Realized on Vesting is computed by multiplying the number of shares of stock or units by the market value of the underlying shares on the vesting
date. When an award vests on a non-trading day the most recent previous market closing price is used for the purpose of this calculation. |
Nonqualified Deferred Compensation in 2010
Motorola Mobility does not offer a deferred compensation plan. Because Motorola Mobility was a subsidiary of our Former Parent in 2010
before the Separation on January 4, 2011, deferred compensation from our Former Parents Management Deferred Compensation Plan (the Deferred Compensation Plan) is shown below. The Deferred Compensation Plan allowed eligible
executive participants, the opportunity to defer portions of their base salary and annual cash incentive compensation and thereby defer taxes. Our Former Parent did not contribute to this plan. The Deferred Compensation Plan was not intended to
provide for the payment of above-market or preferential earnings on compensation deferred under the Deferred Compensation Plan, however, as described below and pursuant to SEC rules, all earnings on nonqualified deferred compensation in 2010 in
excess of 4.16% would have been deemed above-market earnings. Of the Named Executive Officers, only Mr. Moloney participated in the Deferred Compensation Plan. Effective January 1, 2008, because of low participation, the
Deferred Compensation Plan was temporarily closed to new deferrals.

Pursuant to SEC rules, all earnings on nonqualified deferred compensation in 2010 in excess of 4.16% are deemed above-market earnings. Based on the
performance of the funds elected in advance by the participant (as described below), for above-market earnings on nonqualified deferred compensation see the Change in Pension Value and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation
Earnings column of the Summary Compensation Table. |
Our Former Parents
Deferred Compensation Plan used the following funds as the index for calculating investment returns on a participants deferrals. The participants deferrals were deemed to be invested in these funds as per the participants election.
The participant does not actually own any share of the investment options he/she selects. The investment fund choices mirror the fund choices available in our Former Parents 401(k) plan (with the exception of the Former Parents stock
fund). The funds are available only through variable universal life insurance products and are not publicly traded mutual funds.

Deferral elections can be changed only during the open
enrollment period prior to each plan (calendar) year. Changes to distribution elections must be filed at least 12 months in advance of a previously elected payment start date. Any change will require that the payment start date be at least five
years later than the previous payment start date. A participant may postpone or change his/her termination payment distribution election once per plan (calendar) year. Hardship withdrawals are available, but no other nonscheduled withdrawals are
available. Termination payments cannot be earlier than six months after separation from service, except in the event of disability, death or, possibly, a change in control of the Company. The amounts reported in the Aggregate Earnings in
Last FY column represent all earnings on nonqualified deferred compensation in 2010. The portion of earnings reported as above-market earnings in the Summary Compensation Table in the Change in
Pension Value and Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Earnings column represent the amount in excess of the 4.16% threshold established for 2010 pursuant to SEC rules.
RETIREMENT PLANS
Motorola Mobility does not offer a pension plan or supplemental pension plan. Because Motorola Mobility was a subsidiary of our Former
Parent in 2010 before the Separation on January 4, 2011, our Former Parents pension plan information is described below. Our Former Parents Pension Plan (Pension Plan) and Supplemental Pension Plan (SPP) are
intended to provide pension benefits to the Named Executive Officers in the future. Prior to January 1, 2005, most regular U.S. employees who had completed one year of employment with our Former Parent or certain of its subsidiaries were
eligible to participate in the pension plans. Those employees become vested after five years of service. Effective January 1, 2005, newly-hired employees were no longer eligible to participate in the Pension Plan or the SPP. Effective
January 1, 2008, employees in the Pension Plan not yet vested, became vested after three years of service. Normal retirement is at age 65.
Effective March 1, 2009, all future benefit accruals and compensation increases under our Former Parents Pension Plan and SPP automatically ceased for all individuals who were participants
under the Pension Plan as of February 28, 2009. However, active participants continue to earn vesting credit towards their Pension Plan benefit on and after March 1, 2009 if not already fully vested.
Former Parent Traditional and Portable Plan
Our Former Parents Pension Plan contains two benefit formulas, referred to as the Traditional Plan and the Portable Plan. The
Traditional Plan provides an annual pension annuity benefit based on the participants average earnings and the participants benefit service, offset by the participants estimated Social Security benefit at age 65. The
Traditional Plan formula consists of (1) for service from 1978 through 1987, (a) the sum of (i) 40% of the first $20,000 of final average earnings, plus (ii) 35% of final average earnings in excess of $20,000,
multiplied by (b) a fraction whose numerator is the number of months of service during that period and whose denominator is 420, plus (2) for service after 1987, 75% of final average earnings, multiplied by a
fraction whose numerator is the number of months of service after 1987 (not exceeding 420) and whose denominator is 420, minus (3) 50% of the participants projected primary annual Social Security benefit at age 65 (or the
participants later retirement age (including any delayed retirement credits or similar adjustments)) multiplied by a fraction whose numerator is the number of months of benefit service after 1977 (not exceeding 420) and whose
denominator is 420.
The Portable Plan formula provides a lump-sum pension benefit based on the participants average
earnings, and a benefit percentage determined by the participants vesting service and the participants
benefit service. The Portable Plan formula consists of (1) average earnings multiplied by the participants cumulative benefit percentage, which cumulative benefit percentage is
based on benefit service earned on or after July 1, 2000 and vesting service (where a participants benefit percentage is determined as follows: 4% for each year of benefit service earned while the participant has five or fewer years of
vesting service, plus 5% for each year of benefit service earned while the participant has more than five but less than ten years of vesting service, plus 6% for each year of benefit service earned while the participant has more
than ten but less than 15 years of vesting service, plus 7% for each year of benefit service earned while the participant has more than 15 years of vesting service), plus (2) the participants Traditional Plan
benefit as of June 30, 2000 (if applicable) converted to a lump-sum based on the participants age and the interest rate in effect for the year of payment.
Both Pension Plan formulas use average earnings to calculate the relevant pension benefit. Prior to January 1, 2008, a participants final average earnings were used to
calculate the relevant pension benefit, while the participants modified average earnings are used to calculate the relevant pension benefit beginning on and after January 1, 2008.
A participants final average earnings are his/her average earnings for the five years of his/her highest pay during the
last ten calendar years (including years he/she did not work a complete year) of the participants employment with our Former Parent. A participants modified average earnings are: (1) the sum of (a) his/her
average earnings for the five (or fewer if hired after 2002) years of his/her highest pay during the ten calendar years before January 1, 2008, plus (b) his/her earnings during all years after 2007 in which he/she participated in
the Pension Plan, divided by (2) the sum of (a) the number of years of the participants benefit service under the Pension Plan prior to January 1, 2008, up to a maximum of five years (or fewer, if less than five);
plus (b) the participants total years of participation in the Pension Plan for all years after 2007. Eligible earnings include regular earnings, commissions, overtime, lump-sum merit pay, participant contributions to our Former
Parents 401(k) Plan and other pre-tax plans and incentive pay with respect to the period January 1, 2000 to February 3, 2002. After February 3, 2002, incentive pay was excluded from the definition of eligible compensation.
Former Parent Supplemental Pension Plan
Our Former Parents SPP provides benefits for highly compensated individuals whose tax-qualified Pension Plan benefits are reduced
by certain IRS limits or by participation in our Former Parents Management Deferred Compensation Plan. The IRS annual salary limitation (Section 401(a)(17) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the Code)) and certain other
IRS requirements reduce pension benefits from tax-qualified Pension Plans for certain highly compensated individuals. The SPP is designed to offset these limitations. The SPP is a non-qualified plan, which means benefits are not subject to certain
nondiscrimination testing and reporting requirements of the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA); however, these amounts are unsecured, leaving the participants in the status of a general creditor of our Former
Parent.
On December 15, 2008, our Former Parents Board authorized amendments to the SPP. On this date, commensurate
with our Former Parents Boards decision to freeze its Pension Plan, they also, effective March 1, 2009, froze all future benefit accruals and compensation increases under this plan for all individuals who were participants under
this plan as of February 28, 2009. Additionally, the SPP was further amended to freeze any future participation in the SPP after January 1, 2009 unless such participation was due to a prior contractual entitlement.
An individual was eligible to participate in SPP if he or she was age 55 or older with at least five years of service, was eligible
to receive a Former Parent Pension Plan benefit, was eligible to accrue additional benefits under the Former Parent Pension Plan at the time of termination of employment, and the individuals pension benefit was reduced by Internal Revenue Code
limitations. A participants pension benefit and SPP benefit together cannot exceed 70% of his or her final average earnings at retirement.
401(k) Plan
On December 15, 2008, our Former Parents Board of
Directors authorized amendments to our Former Parents 401(k) Plan. On this date, our Former Parents Board determined that, effective January 1, 2009, our Former Parents match of employee contributions to the 401(k) Plan was
suspended until subsequent Board action. On March 16, 2010, our Former Parents Compensation and Leadership Committee recommended the Board reinstate the 401(k) matching contributions as of July 1, 2010 and
approved an amendment to permit after-tax contributions by employees. Matching contributions were reinstated as of July 1, 2010 at a rate of 100% on the first 4% of pre-tax employee
contributions. The maximum matching contribution for the 2010 Plan year is pro rated to account for the number of months remaining in the year.
As of January 1, 2011, the Company established the Motorola Mobility 401(k) Plan for the benefit of its employees to provide funds for employees in the event of death, disability, unemployment and
retirement, and to encourage employees interests in the successful operation of the business. Motorola Mobility currently matches contributions at a rate of 100% on the first 4% of pre-tax employee contributions.
General Instrument Corporation Pension Plan and Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan
Our Former Parent acquired General Instrument Corporation in January of 2000. The General Instrument Corporation Pension Plan (the
GI Pension), frozen on December 31, 2000, provides a pension annuity benefit based on the participants benefit service, average monthly compensation and excess monthly compensation. Mr. Rothman, Mr. Moloney,
Mr. Crum and Mr. Roman are the Named Executive Officers who participated in the GI Pension.
The General Instrument
Corporation Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (GI SERP), frozen on December 31, 2000, provides benefits for highly compensated individuals whose tax qualified pension plan benefits are reduced by certain IRS limits.
Mr. Rothman, Mr. Moloney, Mr. Crum and Mr. Roman are the Named Executive Officers who participated in the GI SERP.
Pension Benefits in 2010
Motorola Mobility does not offer a pension plan or a supplemental pension plan. Because Motorola Mobility was a subsidiary of our Former Parent in 2010 before the Separation on January 4, 2011,
information concerning pension benefits provided by our Former Parent and General Instrument Corporation (acquired by our Former Parent in January 2000) is shown below. Assumptions described in Note 7, Retirement Benefits, in
our Former Parents Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 are used below and incorporated by reference. As stated above, effective March 1, 2009, all future benefit accruals and compensation increases under our
Former Parents Pension Plan and SPP automatically ceased for all individuals who were participants under the Pension Plan as of February 28, 2009.

EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS
Employment Agreement with Sanjay K. Jha
On August 4, 2008, Dr. Sanjay K. Jha became Co-Chief Executive Officer of Motorola, Inc., Chief Executive Officer of the Mobile Devices business (the Mobile Devices
business) of our Former Parent and a member of the Board of Directors of our Former Parent. On this same date, our Former Parent and Dr. Jha entered into an employment agreement (the original employment agreement) providing
Dr. Jha with an annual base salary of $1,200,000 and a guaranteed annual bonus of $2,400,000 for 2008 and $1,200,000 for 2009 and a target annual bonus of not less than 200% of base salary thereafter. The agreement was subsequently amended on
December 15, 2008 and February 11, 2010 (collectively, the amended employment agreement). Motorola Mobility assumed and the Board of Directors approved the assumption of Dr. Jhas amended employment agreement on
December 13, 2010 in connection with the Separation from our Former Parent.
Pursuant to make-whole awards under his original
employment agreement, Dr. Jha was granted 2,304,653 RSUs and 10,211,226 options to purchase shares of our Former Parents common stock. Pursuant to inducement awards (Inducement Awards) under his original employment
agreement, Dr. Jha was granted 1,362,769 RSUs and 6,383,658 options to purchase shares of our Former Parents common stock. Each of the above original equity awards vest or restrictions lapse in three equal annual installments
with the first two installments having vested on July 31, 2009 and 2010.
Pursuant to the amended employment agreement, on
Separation all of Dr. Jhas outstanding equity awards that related to our Former Parents common stock were converted into equity awards that relate to the stock of Motorola Mobility. Per the employment agreement terms, Motorola
Mobility granted Dr. Jha post-separation equity awards (the Post-Separation Equity Awards) in an amount that, together with his Inducement Awards, represented between 1.8% and 3% ownership of the stock of Motorola Mobility,
depending on its initial market capitalization. If the market capitalization of Motorola Mobility was equal to or less than $6.0 billion, the Post-Separation Equity Award, together with the Inducement Awards, would have represented 3% of
Motorola Mobilitys total equity immediately following the Separation. If the
market capitalization was greater than $6.0 billion, the Post-Separation Equity Award, together with the Inducement Awards, was reduced on a linear basis, calculated as the quotient obtained
by dividing $6.0 billion by the market capitalization and finding the product of that ratio times 3%. The market capitalization calculation was based on an average of the closing price of Company stock on its first 15 trading days. 90% of the
award was stock options and 10% was restricted stock. The Post Separation Equity Awards vest, subject to continued employment, in three installments, each vesting date to be the later of (a) the date on which the average closing price of
Motorola Mobility Common Stock over a 15-day trading period is 10% greater than the average closing price of Motorola Mobility Common Stock over its first 15-day trading period immediately following the date that Motorola Mobility became a separate,
publicly traded company, and (b) the first, second and third anniversary of the grant date, as applicable. On January 28, 2011, pursuant to the above, Dr. Jha was granted 318,792 shares of restricted stock (the Post-Separation
RS) and 2,869,131 stock options to acquire shares of Motorola Mobility.
In the event the Mobile Devices business did not
become a separate, publicly traded company on or prior to June 30, 2011 (a Separation Event) (as extended from October 31, 2010 by the Second Amendment to Dr. Jhas employment agreement) or if the Mobile Devices
business were disposed of in a manner where it was not at least 50% owned by our Former Parent on or prior to June 30, 2011 (a Disposition Event), Dr. Jha would have been entitled, by July 15, 2011, to a lump sum cash
payment from our Former Parent or a successor equal to $38 million (the Contingent Payment) (increased from $30 million by the Second Amendment to Dr. Jhas employment agreement) and Dr. Jha would not have been
entitled to the Post-Separation Equity Award. Moreover, if a Separation Event did not occur or if a Disposition Event occurred by June 30, 2011 and Dr. Jha was terminated or resigned, the Contingent Payment would be in addition to other
entitlements discussed below because such a termination would have been deemed without cause or for good reason under the amended employment agreement. Further, if any successor to the Mobile Devices business did not assume
the employment agreement, that also would have constituted good reason for Dr. Jha to terminate and receive the other entitlements discussed below. If the Separation Event did not occur, Dr. Jhas employment with our
Former
Parent would have automatically terminated without cause on August 31, 2011. On January 4, 2011, by nature of the Separation occurring, the Contingent Payment is no longer
possible for Dr. Jha.
In the event of Dr. Jhas termination of employment without cause or by
Dr. Jha for good reason, Dr. Jha is entitled to lump sum payments consisting of: (1) accrued and unpaid obligations (including base salary, vacation pay and undistributed bonuses), (2) severance equal to two times
(prior to a change of control) or three times (on or after a change of control) the sum of Dr. Jhas base salary and target annual bonus, (3) a pro rata annual bonus based on actual performance during the year in which termination has
occurred, (4) in the event that the Mobile Devices business did not become a separate, publicly traded company and Dr. Jhas employment was terminated on or prior to June 30, 2011, the Contingent Payment, to the extent not
previously paid (not possible after January 4, 2011), (5) two years (prior to a change of control) or three years (following a change of control), of medical insurance continuation, and (6) prior to a change of control, accelerated
vesting of the (a) make-whole award RSUs and options, (b) inducement award RSUs and options and (c) amount of Post-Separation RS proportionately necessary to satisfy applicable taxes; and two years continued vesting of all other equity awards; and,
following a change of control, accelerated vesting of all equity awards. In the event the Company terminates Dr. Jhas employment for cause or Dr. Jha terminates employment without good reason, he is entitled
only to accrued and unpaid base salary and vacation pay. In the event of a termination of employment due to death or disability, Dr. Jha is entitled to accrued and unpaid obligations (including base salary, vacation pay and undistributed
bonuses) and vesting of all then unvested equity awards that are outstanding as of the date of termination.
Good
reason for Dr. Jha to terminate his employment and receive the above generally includes: (1) a Separation Event had not occurred on or prior to June 30, 2011 or a Disposition Event had occurred by June 30, 2011 (not
possible after January 4, 2011), (2) a reduction in salary, bonus targets or benefits, (3) a failure to continue on the Board of Directors or negative change in reporting structure, (4) the Company requires the principal location
of employment be more than 50 miles from Libertyville, Illinois, (other than to the extent agreed to or requested by Dr. Jha), (5) the failure of a successor to assume the employment agreement, or (6) any other breach of the
agreement.
Dr. Jha was eligible to receive a long-term incentive award commensurate with his
position in May 2010 when annual equity awards were made.
During his employment term, Dr. Jha is eligible to
participate in the health and welfare, perquisite, fringe benefits and other arrangements generally available to other senior executives. Dr. Jha is entitled to the use of the Companys aircraft for business and personal travel pursuant to
the security policy. Dr. Jha is entitled to relocation expenses, including temporary housing, until the Separation Event or June 30, 2011, whichever is earlier. On February 1, 2011, such temporary housing benefits were extended by the
Board to June 30, 2011 or earlier in certain circumstances. Dr. Jha is not covered by a Change in Control Severance Plan and did not participate in LRIP in 2008, 2009 or 2010.
In early March 2011, Dr. Jha voluntarily agreed to an amendment to his employment agreement which (1) eliminates his right to a gross up
for excise taxes on excess parachute payments exceeding 110% of the applicable limit that previously existed under his original employment agreement and establishes a limited cut-back of excess parachute payments (in other words, change
in control payments will be reduced below the Code Section 280G safe harbor unless the net after-tax amount of the payments will be greater without the reduction), (2) provides a monthly housing allowance for a residence in the Chicago, Illinois
area during his employment period without a tax gross up, and (3) eliminates the relocation provision that provides coverage for any loss on sale of his residence under his original employment agreement with the Former Parent.
Dr. Jhas employment agreement and certain of his equity awards contain customary restrictive covenants, including perpetual
confidentiality obligations and employee non-solicitation and business non-compete provisions relating to our Former Parent and Motorola Mobility that apply during the employment period and the two-year period following termination of employment
with respect to certain competitors.
Other Arrangements
Mr. Moloney
Pursuant to Mr. Moloneys employment offer dated July 30, 2010, among other standard provisions: (1) he was granted equity compensation awards in Motorola Mobility in the amount of $6.5
million subject to and upon consummation of the Separation
by June 30, 2011, in such form and on such terms and conditions as equity grants are made to similarly situated employees of Motorola Mobility generally at such time; (2) he was granted
a one-time cash sign-on bonus of $325,000, of which $162,500 was paid within 30 days from Mr. Moloneys start date with our Former Parent and, subject to his continued employment with Motorola Mobility, $162,500 will be paid immediately
following the six-month anniversary of his start date; (3) in addition Mr. Moloney was eligible for our Former Parent executive severance plan and was provided (a) if his employment was terminated by the Former Parent or is terminated by
Motorola Mobility without cause before the first anniversary of his employment date, he will be eligible for a total cash severance allowance of 18 months base salary plus other benefits that are prescribed under the Executive Severance
Plan; (b) if his employment was terminated by our Former Parent or is terminated by Motorola Mobility without cause on or after the first anniversary of his employment date, he will be eligible for a total cash severance allowance
of 12 months base salary plus other benefits that are prescribed under the Executive Severance Plan or, if applicable, a Motorola Mobility executive severance plan; and (c) in no event was he eligible for benefits under the Executive Severance
Plan as a result of his ceasing to be an employee of our Former Parent as of and following the Separation. Mr. Moloney shall forfeit and repay to the Company any sign-on amounts paid to him if, within 12 months following any such payment, he is
terminated for cause (as defined under the Executive Severance Plan) or his employment is terminated on his own initiative for any reason.
Mr. Moloney is eligible to participate in benefit programs provided to similarly situated employees. As an Executive Vice President of our Former Parent, he was eligible to participate in our Former
Parents change in control severance plan. In early 2011, Mr. Moloney voluntarily agreed to immediately forego any 280G tax gross up that would have been provided under the change in control severance plan for legacy participants without
waiting for the conclusion of the three year notice period to eliminate this provision initiated for legacy participants by Motorola Mobility.
Mr. Crum
Pursuant to Mr. Crums employment offer dated June 23, 2010,
among other standard provisions: (1) he was granted a one-time cash sign-on bonus of $250,000, of which $125,000 was paid within 30 days from Mr. Crums start date with our Former Parent
and, subject to his continued employment with Motorola Mobility, $125,000 will be paid within 30 days following the one year anniversary of his start date; (2) he was granted 140,000 stock
options to purchase shares of our Former Parent vesting in three equal annual installments; (3) he was granted 210,000 restricted stock units of our Former Parent with restrictions lapsing in three equal annual installments; (4) he received a
$75,000 lump sum commuting allowance within 30 days of his start date and will receive another $75,000 lump sum commuting allowance within 30 days of the one year anniversary of his start date; (5) he is entitled to any and all living and local
transportation expenses in the Libertyville, Illinois vicinity for 24 months following his start date; and (6) following the 24-month commuting period, he is eligible for benefits under the homeowner relocation policy. Mr. Crum shall forfeit and
repay to the Company any sign-on bonus (pro rated) and relocation amounts paid to him if, within 12 months following any such payment, he is terminated for serious misconduct or his employment is terminated on his own initiative for any
reason.
As an elected officer of our Former Parent, Mr. Crum was eligible for the annual incentive plan, MIP, long-range
incentive plan, LRIP, equity awards, including in connection with Separation and benefit programs provided to similarly situated employees. As an elected officer of our Former Parent, he was also eligible to participate in our Former Parents
change in control severance plan. In early 2011, Mr. Crum voluntarily agreed to immediately forego any 280G tax gross up that would have been provided under the change in control severance plan for legacy participants without waiting for the
conclusion of the three year notice period to eliminate this provision initiated for legacy participants by Motorola Mobility.
TERMINATION
OF EMPLOYMENT AND CHANGE IN CONTROL ARRANGEMENTS
Former Parent Change in Control Arrangements
Each Named Executive Officer was an employee of our Former Parent throughout 2010 until the Separation on January 4, 2011. As such,
our Former Parents plans are discussed. Our Former Parent has Change in Control Severance Plans (the Plans) for its elected officers. The Plan applicable to the Named Executive Officers, other than Dr. Jha, is our Former
Parents Senior Officer Change in Control Severance Plan (the Senior Officer Plan). The Senior Officer Plan provides for the payment of benefits in the event
that: (1) an executive officer terminates his or her employment for Good Reason (as defined) within two years of a Change in Control (as defined), or (2) the
executive officers employment is involuntarily terminated for any reason other than termination for Cause (as defined), disability, death or normal retirement within two years of a change in control of our Former Parent. In
addition to unpaid salary for accrued vacation days and accrued salary through the termination date, the lump sum payable to an executive officer entitled thereto would be equal to the sum of:
|
(1) |
three times the greater of the executive officers highest annual base salary in effect during the three years immediately preceding the Change in Control and the
annual base salary in effect on the termination date; plus |
|
(2) |
three times the highest annual bonus received by the executive officer during the immediately preceding five fiscal years ending on or before the termination date; plus
|
|
(3) |
a pro rata target bonus for the performance period (year, quarter or month) in which the termination occurs. |
The executive officer would also receive continued medical and insurance benefits for three years, and three years of age and
service credit for retiree medical eligibility. In the event the executive officer is subject to the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, our Former Parent will make a tax reimbursement payment to the executive officer to offset the
impact of such excise tax. The Senior Officer Plans term is for three years, subject to automatic one-year extensions unless our Former Parent gives 90 days prior notice that it does not wish to extend. In addition, if a Change in
Control occurs during the term, the Plans continue for an additional two years. These Plans replaced individual agreements that our Former Parent began providing in 1988. In addition to plans covering all of our Former Parents officers, there
are change in control protections for the general employee population in our Former Parents Involuntary Severance Plan. A previous stand-alone change in control severance plan for the general employee population was terminated in 2008.
In addition, except as otherwise determined by our Former Parents Compensation and Leadership Committee at the time of
the grant of an award, under our Former Parents 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan, upon a change in control of our Former Parent: all
equity-based awards granted to an executive officer become fully vested and exercisable; all performance goals are deemed achieved at target levels and all other terms and conditions met; all
performance stock would be delivered as promptly as practicable; all performance units, RSUs and other units would be paid out as promptly as practicable; all annual management incentive awards would be paid out at target levels (or earned levels,
if greater) and all other terms and conditions deemed met; and all other stock or cash awards would be delivered and paid. Such treatment (referred to herein as Accelerated Treatment) does not apply if and to the extent that such awards
are assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or are replaced with awards that preserve the existing value of such awards at the time of the change in control and provide for subsequent payout in accordance with the same vesting
schedule applicable to the original awards. With respect to any awards that are so assumed or replaced, such assumed or replaced awards shall provide for the Accelerated Treatment with respect to any executive officer that is involuntarily
terminated (for a reason other than Cause) (as defined) or quits for Good Reason (as defined) within 24 months of the change in control. Such equity awards contain customary restrictive covenants, including perpetual
confidentiality obligations, and business non-compete provisions and employee non-solicitation relating to our Former Parent and its successors that apply during the employment period and the one- or two-year periods following termination of
employment.
Motorola Mobility Change in Control Arrangements
Our Board of Directors, acting on the recommendation of our Compensation and Leadership Committee, approved and adopted the Motorola
Mobility Change in Control Severance Plan (the Change in Control Plan) on February 15, 2011. For certain Legacy Plan Participants (as defined in the Change in Control Plan), the plan is substantially similar to that of the
Former Parent. Under the new plan, a participant is generally entitled to receive benefits if at any time during the two-year period following a Change in Control (as defined in the Change in Control Plan), the participants
employment is terminated (1) involuntarily for any reason other than Cause (as defined), death, disability, or retirement under a mandatory retirement policy of the Company in effect prior to the start of negotiations leading to such
change in control or (2) by the participant for Good Reason (as defined in the
Change in Control Plan). However, in the case of termination of employment prior to a Change in Control, but subsequent to such time as negotiations or discussions with a third party relating to
a Change in Control have commenced, a participant will only be entitled to benefits under the Change in Control Plan if the participant demonstrates that his or her termination (1) was at the request of a third party with which the Company is
negotiating or has made an agreement with regards to a Change in Control or (2) otherwise occurred in connection with a potential Change in Control.
Under Motorola Mobilitys plan, in addition to any earned but unpaid salary and pro rata portions of any annual incentive bonus or sales incentive bonus, participants will receive either (1) a
lump-sum payment equal to 2-times base salary and 2-times their three-year average annual bonus, as well as two years of continued coverage under the Companys medical, dental, and life insurance plans; (2) in the case of Senior Vice Presidents
or higher, who attained that title prior to January 5, 2011, a lump sum payment equal to 3-times base salary and 3-times their five-year highest annual bonus, as well as three years of continued coverage under the Companys medical, dental, and
life insurance plans; or (3) in the case of certain executives attaining the level of Corporate Vice President after May 9, 2001 but prior to January 5, 2011, a lump-sum payment equal to two 2-times base salary and 2-times their five-year highest
annual bonus, as well as two years of continued coverage under the Companys medical, dental and life insurance plans. We also have a modified double trigger in the 2011 Incentive Compensation Plan which provides that there is no
acceleration of equity or performance awards if such awards are assumed or replaced by the successor. For awards that are assumed or replaced during a Change in Control, accelerated treatment is only afforded if the executive is separated from
service or terminates for Good Reason within 24 months of the change in control event.
New participants in the Motorola
Mobility plan will not be eligible for a tax gross up for benefits subject to the parachute payment excise tax and Dr. Jha, Mr. Moloney and Mr. Crum voluntarily agreed to forego any such tax gross up, as discussed above. Instead, if it is determined
that the benefit received by Dr. Jha, Mr. Moloney or Mr. Crum or a new participant in the Change in Control Plan will be subject to the parachute payment excise tax, the benefit will be reduced so that no parachute payment excise tax is triggered;
provided that no reduction will occur
if the net after-tax amount of the benefit would be greater without the reduction. The Committee has the discretion to determine which employees participate in the Change in Control Plan. In
general, a participant may not receive benefits under the Change in Control Plan if the participant has entered into a separate agreement with the Company that provides for similar benefits in the case of a Change in Control. The Committee may at
any time remove an employee as a participant in the Change in Control Plan by providing written notice of removal to the employee; provided that no removal shall be effective (1) during the two-year period following a change in control, (2)
if effectuated in connection with a potential Change in Control, or (3) at such time as the participant is entitled to payment of a separation benefit or any other amounts payable under the Change in Control Plan.
The Companys equity awards contain customary restrictive covenants, including perpetual confidentiality obligations, and business
non-compete provisions and employee non-solicitation relating to the Company and its successors that apply during the employment period and the one-year period following termination of employment. If a Change in Control has not occurred, the Change
in Control Plan shall expire February 14, 2014; provided, that upon each annual anniversary of February 15, 2011 (each such annual anniversary a renewal date), the Change in Control Plan shall be extended for an additional year.
The Company nevertheless has the right to amend or terminate the Change in Control Plan at any time by action of the majority of the Companys Board of Directors. However, for a period of two years following a Change in Control, the Company may
not terminate or amend the Change in Control Plan such that a participants right to benefits is diminished unless the Company obtains the written consent of the participant.
Former Parent Executive Severance Plan
Each Named Executive Officer was an employee of our Former Parent throughout 2010 until the Separation on January 4, 2011. As such, our Former Parents plans are discussed. Our Former Parent
adopted an Executive Severance Plan (ExSP) for all elected officers and appointed vice presidents, effective October 1, 2008. The ExSP is applicable to Named Executive Officers in the Summary Compensation Table, other than Dr. Jha.
The ExSP provides for the payment of benefits in the event that an executive officers employment is terminated by our Former Parent other than: (a) for total and permanent
disability, (b) for Cause (as defined therein), (c) due to death, (d) if the executive officer is offered employment at a substantially similar direct compensation level with
another company in connection with a sale, lease, outsourcing arrangement or other asset transfer or transfer of any portion of a facility or all or any portion of a discrete organizational unit or business segment of our Former Parent or remains
employed by an affiliate or subsidiary that is sold or spun off, (e) if the termination of employment is followed by immediate or continued employment by our Former Parent or an affiliate or subsidiary, or (f) if the executive terminates
voluntarily for any reason. In addition to accrued salary through the separation date, the lump sums payable to an executive officer who signs a prescribed separation agreement and general release of claims against our Former Parent, and complies
with the restrictive covenants described below, would be equal to the sum of: (1) 12 months of base salary; and (2) pro rata alternate annual incentive bonus or pro rata alternate sales incentive, whichever is applicable, for the performance
period (year, month or quarter, as applicable) in which separation occurs.
In addition, the executive officer would receive
(a) 12 months of continued medical plan coverage at the active employee premium rate, offset against the COBRA amount, (b) up to 12 months outplacement services, and (c) financial planning services. Any severance pay and
benefits paid under the ExSP are to be offset against any severance pay and benefits payable under the Senior Officer Change in Control Plan and/or other individual severance arrangements. If an executive officer receives an alternate annual
incentive bonus or alternate sales incentive bonus under the ExSP, the executive officer is not to receive an annual incentive bonus or sales incentive bonus under any applicable plan for the same performance period. All equity grants and other
benefits are to be administered in accord with their prescribed terms. Such equity awards contain customary restrictive covenants, including perpetual confidentially obligations, and business non-compete provisions and employee non-solicitation
relating to our Former Parent and its successors that apply during the employment period and the one- or two-year periods following termination of employment. The Former Parent Compensation and Leadership Committee, or in some circumstances its
delegate, may, in its sole discretion, reduce, eliminate or otherwise adjust the amount of an executive officers severance pay and benefits, including any bonus or incentive.
Motorola Mobility Executive Severance Plan
On February 15, 2011, our Board of Directors, acting on the recommendation of our Compensation and Leadership Committee, approved and
adopted the Motorola Mobility Executive Severance Plan. The new plan is substantially similar to that of the Former Parent, except that the definition of Cause was modified to include more specific violations which would constitute
cause for termination of employment under the plan and the definition of Change in Control was modified to be more restrictive on what constitutes a change in control. Both changes were made to bring those definitions more in line with
market practice.
Termination and Change in Control Definitions for 2010
The table below outlines the potential payments to our Chief Executive Officer and other Named Executive Officers upon the occurrence of
certain termination triggering events. For the purposes of the table, below are the standard definitions for the various types of termination, although exact definitions may vary by agreement and by person.
Voluntary termination means a termination initiated by the officer.
Voluntary termination for Good Reason occurs when, other than in connection with a Change in Control, employment is terminated
by an officer for Good Reason.
Good Reason means (1) an officer is assigned duties materially inconsistent
with his position, duties, responsibilities and status, or his duties are materially diminished, during the 90-day period immediately preceding a Change in Control, (2) his position, authority, duties or responsibilities are materially
diminished from those in effect during the 90-day period immediately preceding a Change in Control, (3) his annual base salary or total annual compensation opportunity are materially reduced, (4) the Company requires regular performance of
duties beyond a 50 mile radius from the officers current location (other than to the extent agreed to or requested by the officer), (5) the Company fails to obtain a satisfactory agreement from any successor to assume and perform the
relevant plan, or (6) any other material breach of the relevant plan. In the case of Dr. Jha, Good Reason also means (1) a failure to continue on the Board of Directors or a negative change in reporting structure,
(2) a Separation Event has not occurred on
or prior to June 30, 2011 or a Disposition Event has occurred by June 30, 2011 (not possible after January 4, 2011), or (3) the failure of a successor to assume his employment
agreement.
Voluntary terminationRetirement means, apart from any pension plan or MIP, for purposes of the
Former Parent 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan and the Former Parent Long-Range Incentive Plans, retirement after reaching age 55 with at least 20 years of service, or age 60 with at least 10 years of service, or age 65; and for purposes of the
Former Parents Incentive Plans, retirement after reaching age 55 with three years of service.
Involuntary
TerminationTotal and Permanent Disability means termination of employment following entitlement to long-term disability benefits under the Disability Income Plan, as amended and any successor plan, or a determination of a permanent and
total disability under a state workers compensation statute.
Involuntary TerminationFor Cause means
termination of employment following any misconduct identified as a ground for termination in the Code of Business Conduct, or the human resources policies, or other written policies or procedures, including among other things, conviction for any
criminal violation involving dishonesty, fraud or breach of trust or willful engagement in gross misconduct in the performance of the officers duties that materially injures the Company.
Involuntary TerminationNot for Cause means termination of employment for reasons other than For Cause,
Change in Control as defined below, death, Retirement or Total and Permanent Disability as defined above.
Involuntary
Termination for Change in Control occurs when, at any time: (1) following a Change in Control and, assuming equity awards are not suitably replaced by a successor, prior to the second anniversary of a Change in Control, or (2) during
the 12 months prior to a Change in Control but after such time as negotiations or discussions that ultimately lead to a Change in Control have commenced, employment is terminated (a) involuntarily for any reason other than Cause, death,
Disability or retirement under a mandatory retirement policy of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (b) by the officer after the occurrence of an event giving rise to Good Reason. For purposes of this definition, Cause means:
(1) conviction of any criminal violation involving dishonesty, fraud or breach of trust, or (2) willful engagement in gross
misconduct in the performance of the officers duties that materially injures the Company, and Disability means a condition such that the officer by reason of physical or mental
disability becomes unable to perform his normal duties for more than 180 days in the aggregate (excluding infrequent or temporary absence due to ordinary transitory illness) during any 12 month period.
Change in Control (as used in the prior definition of Involuntary Termination for a Change in Control) shall be
deemed to have occurred if (1) any person or group (as such terms are used in Section 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act)) is or becomes the beneficial owner
(as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of our Former Parent representing 20% or more of the combined voting power of our Former Parents then outstanding securities (other than the company
or any employee benefit plan of the company, and no Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred as a result of the beneficial ownership, or changes therein, of the companys securities by either of the foregoing),
(2) there shall be consummated (a) any consolidation or merger of our Former Parent in which it is not the surviving or continuing corporation or pursuant to which shares of common stock would be converted into or exchanged for cash,
securities or other property, other than a merger of the company in which the holders of common stock immediately prior to the merger have, directly or indirectly, at least a 65% ownership interest in the outstanding common stock of the surviving
corporation immediately after the merger, or (b) any sale, lease, exchange or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) of all, or substantially all, of the assets of our Former Parent other than any such
transaction with entities in which the holder of our Former Parents common stock, directly or indirectly, have at least 65% ownership interest, (3) the stockholders of the company approve any plan or proposal for the liquidation or
dissolution of the company, or (4) as the result of, or in connection with, any cash tender offer, exchange offer, merger or other business combination, sale of assets, proxy or consent solicitation (other than by the Board), contested election
or substantial stock accumulation (a Control Transaction), the members of the Board immediately prior to first public announcement relating to such Control Transaction shall thereafter cease to constitute a majority of the Board.

For purposes of this analysis, we assumed the Named Executive Officers compensation is as follows: Dr. Jhas base salary is equal to $900,000, and his
short-term incentive target opportunity under MIP is equal to 200% of base salary. Per his employment agreement, Dr. Jha is not eligible to participate in the 2008-2010, 2009-2011 or 2010-2012 LRIP cycles. Mr. Rothmans base salary is
equal to $430,000, his short-term incentive target opportunity under MIP is equal to 75% of base salary, and his long-term incentive target opportunities under the 2008-2010, 2009-2011 and 2010-2012 LRIP cycles are equal to 100% of cycle salary.
Mr. Moloneys base salary was equal to $650,000 and his short-term incentive target opportunity under MIP was equal to 100%. Mr. Moloney is not a participant in the LRIP cycles. Mr. Crums base salary is equal to $425,000,
his short-term incentive target opportunity under MIP was equal to 75% of base salary, and his long-term incentive target opportunities under the 2008-2010 LRIP cycle is equal to 13.89% of cycle salary, under the 2009-2011 LRIP cycle is equal to
47.22% of cycle salary and under the 2010-2012 LRIP cycle is equal to 80.56% of cycle salary. Mr. Romans base salary is equal to $400,000, his short-term incentive target opportunity under MIP is equal to 75% of base salary, and his
long-term incentive target opportunities under the 2008-2010, 2009-2011 and 2010-2012 LRIP cycles are equal to 100% of cycle salary. |
(2) |
Under Involuntary TerminationNot for Cause, severance is generally calculated as 12 months of base salary pursuant to the Executive Severance
Plan. For Dr. Jha, severance is calculated 2-times base salary plus 2-times target MIP award and for Mr. Moloney, severance is calculated as 18 months of base salary until September 1, 2011, the 12 months following his start date pursuant
to his employment offer letter, each as further discussed in Employment Contracts. Under Involuntary TerminationChange in Control, severance is calculated as 3-times base salary plus 3-times highest
bonus during the five full years preceding the termination date pursuant to our Former Parent Senior Officer Change in Control Severance Plan and pursuant to Dr. Jhas employment agreement is calculated as 3-times base salary plus 3-times
target bonus in the year of termination. Actual severance payments may vary. See Former Parent Executive Severance Plan for further details. |
(3) |
Assumes the effective date of termination is December 31, 2010 and that the payment under the short-term incentive plan is equal to the full target award; the pro
rata payment under 2008-2010 LRIP cycle is equal to the full target award and under 2009-2011 LRIP cycle is equal to two-thirds of the target award under 2010-2012 LRIP cycle is equal to one-third of the target award if the Named Executive Officer
meets the rule of retirement described below. If the Named Executive Officer does not meet the rule of retirement under our Former Parents Incentive Plan (age 55 plus 3 years service) or under the Former Parent Long-Range
Incentive Plans (either age 55 plus 20 years service, age 60 plus 10 years service or age 65) on the effective date of termination, zeroes are entered under Voluntary TerminationRetirement
and Involuntary TerminationNot For Cause. If a Named Executive Officer has not met the applicable rule of retirement, they are not automatically entitled to a pro rata payment under long-term incentive plans in the event of an
Involuntary TerminationNot for Cause unless the LRIP cycle is in its final year at the time of termination. Therefore, Messrs. Rothman and Crum reflect no pro rata LRIP payment for the 2009-2011 and 2010-2012 cycles in the event of
an Involuntary TerminationNot for Cause. Amounts under Involuntary TerminationChange in Control assume that target awards are paid under our Former Parents LRIP and the awards are not assumed or replaced by the
successor corporation. |
(4) |
Assumes the effective date of termination is December 31, 2010 and the price per share of our Former Parents common stock on the date of termination is $9.07
per share, the closing price on December 31, 2010. If the Named Executive Officer does not meet the rule of retirement, if applicable, under the equity plans (either age 55 plus 20 years service,
age 60 plus 10 years service or age 65) on the effective date of termination, zeroes are entered under Voluntary TerminationRetirement. For Involuntary TerminationNot For Cause, the vesting for
unvested RSUs granted on or after May 3, 2006 is pro rata accelerated for full years of service from the grant date to the termination date. For the vesting of unvested options granted June 12, 2009 or after August 1, 2009 is pro rata
accelerated for full months of service from the grant date to the termination date. For Dr. Jha, under Voluntary TerminationGood Reason and Involuntary TerminationNot For Cause, the unvested equity granted under his
employment agreement accelerates with all other equity continuing to vest for a period of two years following terminations. |
(5) |
Payments associated with Benefits and Perquisites are limited to the items listed. No other benefits or perquisite continuation occurs under the termination
scenarios listed that are not otherwise available to all regular U.S. employees. |
(6) |
Health and Welfare Benefits Continuation is calculated as 12 months (except Dr. Jha is calculated as 24 months per his employment agreement)
as provided in our Former Parents Executive Severance Plan under Involuntary TerminationNot for Cause and as 36 months under Involuntary TerminationChange in Control. |
(7) |
In early 2011, Dr. Jha voluntarily agreed to amend his employment agreement to forego and eliminate the 280G tax gross up provision. Further,
Mr. Moloney and Mr. Crum also voluntarily agreed to immediately forego any 280G tax gross up that would have been provided under the change in control severance plan for legacy participants without waiting for the conclusion of the three
year notice period to eliminate this provision initiated for legacy participants by Motorola Mobility. If the parachute payment (severance + value of accelerated equity) is greater than three times the average W-2 reported
compensation for the preceding five years, then an excise tax is imposed on the portion of the parachute payment that exceeds the average W-2 reported compensation for the preceding years. Per our Former Parents Change In Control
Severance Plan, a gross up payment equal to the value of the excise tax imposed will be paid. However, if the parachute payment value does not exceed 110% of the maximum parachute payment value that the participant can receive without
being subject to the excise tax (the Safe Harbor Amount), then no gross up shall be made to the participant and the |
|
amounts payable under the plan shall be reduced so that the parachute payment value, in the aggregate, equals the Safe Harbor Amounts (the cut-back). This limited cut-back
was applied to the amount shown for Mr. Rothman. These estimates do not take into account mitigation tax payments made in consideration of non-competition agreements or as reasonable compensation. The determination to whether and when a gross up
payment is required, the amount of the gross up payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, will be made by the Companys independent registered public accounting firm, currently KPMG LLP.
|
(8) |
See Named Executive Officer Compensation2010 Summary Compensation Table for nonqualified deferred compensation. There would be no further
enhancement or acceleration upon a termination or change in control. |
(9) |
Our Former Parents Senior Officer Change in Control Severance Plan uses a double trigger. In other words, in order for severance benefits to be
triggered, (1) a change in control must occur and (2) an executive must be involuntarily terminated for a reason other than cause or must leave for good reason within 24 months of the change in
control. |
(10) |
Dr. Jha is not eligible to participate in LRIP for the 2008-2010, 2009-2011 and 2010-2012 cycles pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement. Mr. Moloney is
not a participant in the LRIP cycles. |
(11) |
As a result of the January 4, 2011 Separation, these amounts are no longer possible for Dr. Jha. Under his employment agreement in effect at December 31,
2010, Dr. Jha was only entitled to the $38 million if: (1) the separation of the Mobile Devices business did not occur on or prior to June 30, 2011, or our Former Parent disposed of the Mobile Devices business resulting in our
Former Parent owning less than 50% of the business on or prior to June 30, 2011, and (2) Dr. Jha was terminated without cause as defined in his employment agreement, or Dr. Jha terminated for good reason as defined in his
employment agreement. See Employment Agreement with Sanjay K. Jha for further details. |
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS
Procedures for Review of Related Person Transactions
Motorola Mobilitys Governance and Nominating Committee is responsible for determining whether any conflicts of interest exist and for the review and approval of each related person transaction.
Motorola Mobilitys Board of Directors has established written policies and procedures (Related Person Transaction Policy or the Policy) to assist it in reviewing transactions in excess of $120,000
(Transactions) involving Motorola Mobility and its subsidiaries and Related Persons (as defined below).
The
Policy supplements Motorola Mobilitys other conflict of interest provisions set forth in the Motorola Mobility Code of Business Conduct and related policies for employees and directors and its other internal procedures. A summary description
of the Related Person Transaction Policy is set forth below.
For purposes of the Related Person Transaction Policy, a
Related Person includes our Companys directors, director nominees, executive officers, and beneficial owners of 5% or more of any class of our Companys voting securities (5% Holder) since the beginning of our Companys
last fiscal year and members of their respective Immediate Family (as defined in the Policy).
The Policy provides that any
Transaction since the beginning of the last fiscal year is to be promptly reported to our General Counsel. The General Counsel
will assist with gathering important information about the Transaction and present the information to the Governance and Nominating Committee. The Committee will determine if the Transaction is a
Related Person Transaction and approve, ratify or reject any Transaction determined to be a Related Person Transaction. In approving, ratifying or rejecting a Related Person Transaction, the committee will consider such information as it deems
important to conclude if the transaction is fair to our company and stockholders.
Related Person Transactions
The Company had no Related Person Transactions in 2010.
Agreements with Our Former Parent
Prior to our Separation from our Former Parent, we entered into a Master Separation and Distribution Agreement and several other agreements with our Former Parent to effect the Separation and provide a
framework for our relationships our Former Parent after the Separation, including with respect to employee matters, intellectual property rights, trademark licenses and tax matters. Shortly before our Separation from our Former Parent we also
entered into transition services agreements and several commercial agreements, which provided for, among other things, the provision of transition services and cooperation with respect to iDEN mobile devices and infrastructure products and services,
as well as the ongoing sale and support of various other products and services.
In addition to the Master Separation and Distribution Agreement (which contains many of the
key provisions related to our Separation and the distribution of our shares of Common Stock to our Former Parents stockholders), the other principal agreements entered into with our Former Parent include:
|
|
|
Intellectual Property Assignment Agreement; |
|
|
|
Intellectual Property License Agreement; |
|
|
|
Trademark License Agreement; |
|
|
|
Transition Services Agreements; |
|
|
|
Employee Matters Agreement; and |
|
|
|
Other Commercial Agreements. |
The summaries below of each of these agreements set forth the terms that we believe are material. These summaries are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the applicable agreements
and summaries thereof, which are available in our amended Registration Statement on Form 10.
Master Separation and Distribution Agreement
The Master Separation and Distribution Agreement contains the key provisions relating to the Separation of our businesses
from our Former Parents other businesses. It sets forth other agreements that govern certain aspects of our relationship with our Former Parent after Separation.
Transfer of Assets and Assumption of Liabilities. The Master Separation and Distribution Agreement identified assets and rights associated with our business to be transferred, liabilities to be
assumed and contracts to be assigned to us as part of our Separation from our Former Parent.
Indemnification. We will
indemnify our Former Parent and its affiliates and their directors, officers and employees against damages incurred by such parties arising out of or in connection with, among other things, the operation of our business, failure to pay on
liabilities assumed by us, and a breach of the agreement.
Our Former Parent will indemnify us and our affiliates, directors,
officers and employees against damages incurred by parties arising out of or in connection with, among other things, the operation of their business, failure to pay on its liabilities, and a breach of the agreement.
Intellectual Property Agreements
Motorola Mobility uses patents, trademarks, copyrights and other types of intellectual property. As part of the Separation, we were
allocated intellectual property related to our business. In most cases, the intellectual property was cross-licensed between our Former Parent and Motorola Mobility. The two companies entered into an Intellectual Property Assignment Agreement and
Intellectual Property License Agreement.
As part of the Intellectual Property License Agreement, our Former Parent and
Motorola Mobility entered into a cross-licensing arrangement with each other in respect of their respective patents. Under the cross-license arrangement, our Former Parent and its subsidiaries are entitled to use the patents transferred to Motorola
Mobility, and Motorola Mobility is entitled to use the patents retained by our Former Parent. No royalty or balancing payments will be made under the cross-licenses. The cross-licenses are perpetual and apply to all existing patents and patent
applications, as well as patents filed within a specified period from the date of the Intellectual Property License Agreement. Generally, the licensee (our Former Parent or Motorola Mobility, as the case may be) has no right to sub-license the
patents or otherwise collect royalties in respect of the patents licensed to it.
Copyrights relating to Motorola
Mobilitys businesses were transferred to Motorola Mobility. In general, copyrights are not jointly owned. Other forms of intellectual property (such as know-how, trade secrets and technology) were allocated to the entity to which they are most
relevant, subject to joint ownership of certain jointly used technology. These types of intellectual property are subject to a royalty-free perpetual cross-licensing arrangement between our Former Parent and Motorola Mobility, similar to the
cross-licensing arrangement between our Former Parent and Motorola Mobility described for patents. The technology cross-licensing arrangement is subject to certain product exclusions for a limited term.
Trademark License Agreement
Motorola Trademark Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Motorola Mobility, owns the MOTOROLA trademark, and the Stylized M logo, and all formatives and derivatives such as
MOTO and any other trademarks currently used by both Motorola Mobility and our Former Parent (Motorola Marks). Our Former Parent retains the exclusive
right, pursuant to an exclusive license agreement (Trademark License Agreement), to use certain Motorola Marks in connection with the products and services that fall within its
licensed field of use (Licensed FOU), and in connection with domain names, and trade names used in the operation of its business. Our Former Parents Licensed FOU generally encompasses enterprise products, government, public safety
and military products, wireless network infrastructure equipment, and related software, services and accessories. Motorola Mobility has the right to use, and the right to license others to use, the Motorola Marks outside of our Former Parents
Licensed FOU. The Licensed FOU may be expanded with Motorola Mobilitys consent, which is not to be unreasonably withheld. If Motorola Mobility agrees to expand the Licensed FOU, it will be royalty free to our Former Parent. If our Former
Parent sub-licenses the brand to a third-party within our Former Parents expanded field of use, our Former Parent and Motorola Mobility will share any royalties earned. Motorola Mobility may license the brand to third-parties within the
government, public safety and military market, but outside of our Former Parents Licensed FOU, with our Former Parents consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. If our Former Parent agrees to such license, then our Former Parent
and Motorola Mobility will share any royalties earned.
The territory covered by the Trademark License Agreement is worldwide.
The initial term of the Trademark License Agreement is ten years; the agreement renews at the end of the initial term and every ten years thereafter. Motorola Mobility has the right to terminate the Trademark License Agreement as a result of an
uncured material breach by our Former Parent. Upon termination for cause, our Former Parent will be permitted to wind-down its use of the Motorola Marks over time.
Tax Sharing Agreement
Motorola Mobility, Motorola Mobility, Inc. and our
Former Parent entered into a Tax Sharing Agreement. The Tax Sharing Agreement governs the respective rights, responsibilities and obligations of our Former Parent and Motorola Mobility, with respect to tax liabilities and benefits, tax attributes,
tax contests and other matters regarding income taxes, non-income taxes and related tax returns.
The Tax Sharing Agreement
imposes certain restrictions on our ability to pursue strategic or other transactions that may maximize the value of our
business. The Tax Sharing Agreement provides special rules allocating tax liabilities in the event that the distribution, together with certain related transactions, were not tax-free. In
general:
|
|
|
If any of the following events (among others) prevents the distribution and related transactions from being tax-free, we will be liable for the
resulting taxes: |
|
|
|
Any acquisition of all or a portion of our stock or assets, whether by merger or otherwise; |
|
|
|
Any negotiations, understandings, agreements or arrangements with respect to transactions or events that cause the distribution to be treated as part
of a plan pursuant to which one or more persons acquire, directly or indirectly, stock representing 50% or greater interest in Motorola Mobility; |
|
|
|
We cease to actively conduct the Mobile Devices business during the two-year period following the distribution; |
|
|
|
We take or fail to take any other action that prevents the distribution and related transactions from being tax-free; or |
|
|
|
Any breach by Motorola Mobility of certain of its undertakings and representations. |
|
|
|
To preserve the tax-free treatment to our Former Parent of the Distribution, we agreed to refrain from taking or failing to take any action that
prevents the Distribution and related transactions from being tax-free. Further, during the two-year period following the Distribution, in certain circumstances we may be precluded from entering into or authorizing: (1) any transaction
resulting in the acquisition of 40% or more of our stock or 60% or more of our assets; (2) any merger, consolidation or liquidation; (3) any issuance of equity securities beyond certain thresholds; or (4) any repurchase of Motorola
Mobility Common Stock beyond certain thresholds unless, in each case, (a) we deliver to our Former Parent a will-level legal opinion, satisfactory to our Former Parent, stating that the intended transaction will not prevent the
Distribution and related transactions from being tax-free or (b) our Former Parent obtains a letter ruling, satisfactory to our Former Parent, in its sole discretion from the IRS to this effect.
|
Transition Services Agreements
Our Former Parent, Motorola Mobility, Inc. and Motorola Mobility entered into Transition Services Agreements, which provide for the
provision of certain transitional services by our Former Parent and its subsidiaries to Motorola Mobility and its subsidiaries, and vice versa. The services may include the provision of administrative and other services identified by the parties.
The Transition Services Agreements generally provide for a term of up to 12 months. The charge for these interim services is expected to be based on actual costs incurred by the party rendering the services without profit.
Employee Matters Agreement
Our Former Parent, Motorola Mobility, Inc. and Motorola Mobility entered into an Employee Matters Agreement, which allocated responsibilities and liabilities relating to certain employee compensation and
benefit plans and programs and labor-related matters in connection with the Separation.
Pursuant to the Employee Matters
Agreement, the employees of our Former Parents Mobile Devices and/or Home businesses (including related corporate and shared services employees) were transferred to Motorola Mobility or one of its subsidiaries on July 31, 2010 (except
certain non-U.S. employees for whom such transfer on such date was not possible and whose transfer was effected on a subsequent transfer date). Such employees generally were credited for their years of service with our Former Parent for benefits
purposes (other than specified exceptions for non-U.S. employees).
U.S. Employee Benefits. Motorola Mobility
established comparable plans or programs for Motorola Mobility employees, except with respect to pension benefits, deferred compensation, post-employment health benefits and certain other programs.
For the period from July 31, 2010 through December 31, 2010, each of Motorola Mobility and Motorola Mobility, Inc. adopted our
Former Parents 401(k) Plan for the benefit of eligible U.S. employees. Effective January 1, 2011, Motorola Mobility established a 401(k) plan that is comparable to our Former Parents 401(k) Plan and our Former Parent and Motorola
Mobility caused a trust-to-trust transfer of all account balances (including any outstanding loans) for Motorola Mobility employees from our Former Parents 401(k) Plan to the 401(k) plan established by Motorola Mobility.
In addition, through December 31, 2010, Motorola Mobility and Motorola Mobility, Inc.
were participating employers in our Former Parents U.S. medical and dental, pre-tax contributions and flexible benefits, dependent care, disability, life insurance, business travel accident insurance and adoption assistance plans or programs.
Effective January 1, 2011, Motorola Mobility adopted certain comparable benefit plans and programs for its current and former employees.
Non-U.S. Employee Benefits. Motorola Mobility maintains employee benefit plans outside of the U.S. as may be required under applicable law or necessary to ensure the transfer of employees without
triggering severance obligations.
Equity Awards. The Employee Matters Agreement provides the mechanics for the
conversion and adjustment or replacement on the Distribution Date of equity awards (including stock options, stock appreciation rights, and restricted stock units) granted under our Former Parents equity plans into awards based on our Former
Parents common stock and/or Motorola Mobility Common Stock, as applicable. In addition, the Employee Matters Agreement also provides the mechanics for adjustments to be made with respect to our Former Parents common stock held by
participating employees in our Former Parents Employee Stock Purchase Plan (MOTshare Plan).
Incentive
Compensation. Eligible employees of our Former Parent and its affiliates, including transferred employees, continued to participate through the Distribution Date in the Motorola Long-Range Incentive Plan of 2009 (LRIP) for the
performance cycles ending December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012. Each outstanding performance cycle under the LRIP terminated on the Distribution Date and each eligible employee will be paid a pro rated portion of the award earned under
the LRIP, if any, based on performance through the Distribution Date for each performance cycle at the end of such cycles original term. Motorola Mobility will pay any such cash awards to the transferred employees and our Former Parent will
pay any such cash awards to all other employees.
Employee Liabilities. Motorola Mobility will be responsible for all
employment liabilities relating to current and former employees and contractors of Motorola Mobility and its constituent businesses and certain former shared services employees, subject to specified exceptions relating to: (1) severance
obligations in China, Vietnam, and Peru, (2) retiree
health plan liabilities in the U.S., (3) pension liabilities in the U.S., and (4) certain pension liabilities in the United Kingdom. Our Former Parent will be responsible for all
employment liabilities relating to current and former employees and contractors of our Former Parent and its constituent businesses (other than Motorola Mobility), certain former shared services employees and the above specified exceptions listed.
Other Commercial Agreements
Motorola Mobility and our Former Parent also entered into certain commercial agreements in connection with the Separation which were intended to ensure minimal disruption to ongoing sales and support of
various products and services that our Former Parent and Motorola Mobility provide to customers. Payments to be made under these commercial agreements are based on arms-length commercial pricing and will vary based on the amount of products,
services and software provided.
The following Report of Audit Committee and related disclosure shall not be
deemed incorporated by reference by any general statement incorporating this Proxy Statement into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 (the Securities Act) or under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange
Act), except to the extent that the Company specifically incorporates this information by reference, and shall not otherwise be deemed filed under such Acts.
AUDIT COMMITTEE MATTERS
Report of
Audit Committee
Mr. Meredith, the Chair, Mr. Meister and Mr. Ninivaggi, all non-employee directors, were
the members of the Audit Committee at the end of 2010. Ms. Jackson joined the Audit Committee on January 8, 2011. The Committee operates pursuant to a written charter that was adopted by the Board on December 13, 2010. A copy of the
Committees current charter is available at http://investors.motorola.com.
On December 13, 2010, the Board
determined that Messrs. Meredith, Meister and Ninivaggi were independent within the meaning of relevant NYSE listing standards, SEC rules and the Motorola Mobility Board Governance Guidelines. The Board also determined that (1) each such member
of the Committee is an audit committee financial expert as defined by SEC rules, whose expertise has been
attained through relevant experience as discussed in Who Are the Nominees?, and (2) each member of the Committee is financially literate. On
January 8, 2011, the Board determined that Ms. Jackson was independent within the meaning of relevant NYSE listing standards, SEC rules and the Motorola Mobility Board Governance Guidelines and is an audit committee financial
expert as defined by SEC rules, whose expertise has been attained through relevant experience as also discussed in Who Are the Nominees?
The responsibilities of the Committee include assisting the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities as they relate to the Companys accounting policies, internal controls,
financial reporting practices and legal and regulatory compliance. The Committee also appoints and retains the independent registered public accounting firm.
The Committee fulfills its responsibilities through periodic meetings with the Companys independent registered public accounting firm, internal auditors and management. In anticipation of the
Separation on January 4, 2011, during 2010, the Committee met one time. The Committee schedules its meetings with a view toward ensuring that it devotes appropriate attention to all of its tasks. During certain meetings, the Committee meets
privately with the independent registered public accounting firm, the chief financial officer, the chief audit executive, the chief legal counsel and, from time to time, other members of management. Outside of formal meetings, Committee members have
telephone calls to discuss important matters with management and the independent registered public accounting firm.
The
Committee monitors matters related to the independence of KPMG LLP (KPMG), the Companys independent registered public accounting firm. As part of its monitoring activities, the Committee reviews the relationships between the
independent registered public accounting firm and the Company. After reviewing the relationships and discussing them with management, the Committee discussed KPMGs overall relationship with the Company, as well as their objectivity and
independence. Based on its review, the Committee is satisfied with the auditors independence.
KPMG also has confirmed to
the Committee in writing, as required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the PCAOB) regarding the independent accountants communications with the Audit Committee concerning
independence, that, in its professional judgment, it is independent of the Company under all relevant professional and regulatory standards.
In January 2011, the Committee discussed with management, the internal auditors and the independent registered public accounting firm, the
quality and adequacy of the Companys internal controls and the internal audit functions management, organization, responsibilities, budget and staffing. The Committee reviewed with both the independent registered public accounting firm
and the internal auditors their 2011 audit plans, audit scope and identification of audit risks.
The Committee discussed and
reviewed with the independent registered public accounting firm all matters required by the standards of the PCAOB, including those described in SAS No. 61, Communication With Audit Committees, as amended. With and without
management present, the Committee discussed and reviewed the results of the independent registered public accounting firms examination of the combined financial statements. The Committee also discussed the results of the internal audit
examinations.
The Committee reviewed the audited combined financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2010, with management and the independent registered public accounting firm. Management has the responsibility for the preparation and integrity of the Companys combined financial statements and the independent registered
public accounting firm has the responsibility for the examination of those statements. Based on the above-mentioned review and discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm, the Committee recommended to the Board
that the Companys audited combined financial statements be included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 does not include a report of
managements assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting due to a transition
period established by the rules of the SEC for newly public companies.
As specified in the Audit Committee Charter, it is not the duty of the Committee to plan or
conduct audits or to determine that the Companys combined financial statements are complete and accurate and in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. That is the responsibility of management and the Companys
independent registered public accounting firm. In giving its recommendation to the Board of Directors, the Committee has relied on: (1) managements representation that such combined financial statements have been prepared with integrity
and objectivity and in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and (2) the reports of the Companys independent registered public accounting firm with respect to such combined financial statements.
Respectfully submitted,
Thomas J. Meredith, Chair
Jeanne P. Jackson
Keith A. Meister
Daniel A. Ninivaggi
Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies
The Audit Committee has established a policy (the Pre-Approval Policy) requiring its pre-approval of all audit services and
permissible non-audit services provided by the independent auditors, along with the associated fees for those services. The Pre-Approval Policy provides for the annual pre-approval of specific types of services pursuant to policies and procedures
adopted by the Audit Committee, and gives detailed guidance to management as to the specific services that are eligible for such annual pre-approval.
The Pre-Approval Policy requires the specific pre-approval of all other permitted services. For both types of pre-approval, the Audit Committee considers whether the provision of a non-audit service is
consistent with the SECs rules on auditor independence, including whether provision of the service (1) would create a mutual or conflicting interest between the independent auditors and the Company; (2) would place the independent
auditors in the position of auditing their own work; (3) would result in the independent auditors acting in the role of management or as an employee of the Company; or (4) would place the independent auditors in a position of acting as an
advocate for the Company. Additionally, the Audit Committee considers whether the independent auditors are best positioned and qualified to provide the most effective and efficient
service, based on factors such as the independent auditors familiarity with the Companys business, personnel, culture, accounting systems or risk profile and whether provision of the
service by the independent auditors would enhance the Companys ability to manage or control risk or improve audit quality or would otherwise be beneficial to the Company. The Audit Committee will also consider the relationship between fees for
audit and non-audit services in deciding whether to pre-approve such services.
The Audit Committee has delegated to its Chair
the authority to address certain requests for pre-approval of services between meetings of the Audit Committee, and the Chair must report his pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next regular meeting. The Audit Committee allows the
Companys chief audit executive to authorize payment for any audit and non-audit service in the approved budget. The Audit Committee also provides the Companys chief audit executive with the authority to pre-approve fees less than
$100,000 that were not included in the annual budget, but that are included in the list of services approved by the Committee. This authority excludes approval over the annual integrated audit, internal control over financial reporting services, and
tax services. The chief audit executive must report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next regular meeting. The Audit Committee monitors compliance by management with the Pre-Approval Policy by requiring management, pursuant
to the Pre-Approval Policy, to report to the Audit Committee on a regular basis regarding the pre-approved services rendered by the independent auditors. Management has also implemented internal procedures to promote compliance with the Pre-Approval
Policy.
Prior to our Separation from our Former Parent, the pre-approval of permitted services was performed by our Former
Parents Audit and Legal Committee.
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Fees

(1) |
The aggregate fees billed by KPMG for professional services rendered in connection with the audit of our Former Parents annual financial statements, the audit of
internal control over financial reporting, the review of the quarterly financial statements, and services that are normally provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements were $14.6 million in 2010 and
$18.3 million in 2009. Of the total audit fees, approximately $5.8 million in 2010 and $6.3 million in 2009 represent an allocation of KPMG fees from our Former Parent to the Company. Further, $1.5 million and $6.1 million in 2010 and 2009,
respectively, were related to separate audits and filings related to the Separation of the Company from our Former Parent. |
(2) |
The aggregate fees billed by KPMG for assurance and related services reasonably related to the performance of the audit of the financial statements, but not included
under Audit Fees, were $0.6 million in 2010 and $1.3 million in 2009. |
(3) |
The aggregate fees billed by KPMG for tax services were $0.4 million in 2010 and $0.4 million in 2009. The 2010 fees are primarily related to state and local
tax efficiency analyses, and multi-national transfer pricing and tax services. |
(4) |
The aggregate fees for all other services rendered by KPMG were $0.3 million and $0 in 2010 and 2009, respectively. The 2010 fees were primarily related to analyzing
cost optimization studies for management. |
Our Former Parents Audit and Legal Committee considered whether
providing the non-audit services shown in this table was compatible with maintaining KPMGs independence and concluded that it was.
The Audit Committee of the Company has appointed KPMG to serve as our independent auditors
for 2011.
Representatives of KPMG will be present at the Annual Meeting to answer questions. They also will have the
opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so.
The shares represented by your proxy will be voted for the
ratification of the appointment of KPMG unless you specify otherwise. KPMG has served as the independent auditors of the Company since the Separation.

How Can I Recommend a Director Candidate to
the Governance and Nominating Committee?
The Governance and Nominating Committee will consider a candidate for director
proposed by a stockholder. A candidate must be highly qualified and be both willing and expressly interested in serving on the Board. A stockholder wishing to propose a candidate for the Committees consideration should forward the
candidates name and information about the candidates qualifications in writing to the Governance and Nominating Committee, c/o Secretary, Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc., 600 N. U.S. Highway 45, Libertyville, Illinois 60048.
The Governance and Nominating Committee will consider nominees recommended by Motorola Mobility stockholders provided that
the recommendation contains sufficient information for the Governance and Nominating Committee to assess the suitability of the candidate, including the candidates qualifications. Candidates recommended by stockholders that comply with these
procedures will receive the same consideration that candidates recommended by the Committee and management receive.
What is the Deadline
and How Do I Submit Nominations to the Board?
A stockholder wishing to nominate a candidate for election to the Board at
the 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is required to give written notice addressed to the Secretary, Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc., 600 N. U.S. Highway 45, Libertyville, Illinois 60048 of his or her intention to make such a nomination. The
notice of nomination must be
received by the Companys Secretary at the address above between January 10, 2012 and 5:00 pm Central Time on February 9, 2012.
The notice of nomination is required to contain certain information about both the nominee and the stockholder making the nomination as
set forth in the Companys Bylaws. In addition, it must include information regarding the recommended candidate relevant to a determination of whether the recommended candidate would be barred from being considered independent under New York
Stock Exchange Rule 303A.02(b), or, alternatively, a statement that the recommended candidate would not be so barred. A nomination that does not comply with the above requirements will not be considered.
What is the Deadline and How Do I Submit Proposals For the 2012 Annual Meeting?
Any stockholder who intends to present a proposal at the Companys 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders must send the proposal to:
Secretary, Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc., 600 N. U.S. Highway 45, Libertyville, Illinois 60048.
If the stockholder
intends to present a proposal at the Companys 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and have it included in the Companys proxy materials for that meeting, the proposal must be received by the Company no later than November 16, 2011,
and must comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company is not obligated to include any stockholder proposal in its proxy materials for the 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders if
the proposal is received after 5:00 pm Central Time on November 16, 2011.
If a stockholder wishes to present a
proposal at the 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders but not have it included in the Companys proxy materials for that meeting, the proposal must: (1) be received by the Company between January 10, 2012 and 5:00 pm Central Time on
February 9, 2012, (2) present a proper matter for stockholder action under Delaware General Corporation Law, (3) present a proper matter for consideration at such meeting under the Companys Certificate of Incorporation and
Bylaws, (4) be submitted in a manner that is consistent with the submission requirements provided in the Companys Bylaws, and (5) relate to subject matter which could not be excluded from a proxy statement under any rule promulgated
by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
How Can I Communicate with the Board?
All communications to the Board of Directors, Chairman of the Board, the non-management directors or any individual director, must be in
writing and addressed to them c/o Secretary, Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc., 600 N. U.S. Highway 45, Libertyville, Illinois 60048 or by email to MobilityBoard@motorola.com.
OTHER MATTERS
The Board knows of no other
business to be transacted at the 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, but if any other matters do come before the meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote or act with respect to them in accordance with
their best judgment.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Each director and certain officers of the Company are required to report to the Securities and Exchange Commission, by a specified date,
his or her transactions related to Motorola Mobility Common Stock. Based solely on a review of the copies of reports furnished to the Company or written representations that no other reports were required, the Company believes that, during the 2010
fiscal year, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners for Motorola Mobility securities were complied with on a timely basis.
Manner and Cost of Proxy Solicitation
The Company pays the cost of soliciting proxies. In addition to mailing proxies, officers, directors and regular employees of the Company, acting on its behalf, may solicit proxies by telephone, personal
interview or other electronic means. You may also be solicited by means of press releases issued by the Company and advertisements in periodicals. Also, the Company has retained D.F. King & Co., Inc. (D.F. King)
to aid in soliciting proxies for a fee estimated not to exceed $15,000 plus expenses. The Company will, at its expense, request banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward proxy soliciting material to the beneficial
owners of shares held of record by such persons.
Reduce Duplicate Proxy Materials
Securities and Exchange Commission rules permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for
proxy statements with respect to two or more security holders sharing the same address by delivering a single annual report, proxy statement or Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (a Notice), as applicable, addressed to
those security holders. This process, which is commonly referred to as householding, potentially provides extra convenience for security holders and cost savings for companies.
A number of brokers with accountholders who are Motorola Mobility stockholders will be householding to reduce duplicate
mailings of our proxy materials. As indicated in the notice provided by these brokers to Motorola Mobility stockholders, a single set of proxy materials or Notice will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary
instructions have been received from an affected stockholder. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be householding communications to your address, householding will continue until you are notified
otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement or Notice, please notify your broker or call 1-800-579-1639, email:
sendmaterials@proxyvote.com, or write us at Secretary, Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc., 600 N. U.S. Highway 45, Libertyville, Illinois 60048.
Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the proxy statement at their address and would like to request to receive only one should contact their broker.
By order of the Board of Directors,
Carol H. Forsyte
Secretary
