Ms. Wynne, 47, joined Analog Devices in 1999 and has been our Corporate Controller since 2011, managing our worldwide accounting and transaction processing, internal control, management planning and reporting, internal audit and Securities and Exchange Commission reporting functions. Prior to becoming Corporate Controller, Ms. Wynne served as our Assistant Corporate Controller from 2004 to 2011 and as our External Reporting Manager from 1999 to 2004. Ms. Wynne is a licensed Certified Public Accountant. There are no reportable family relationships or related person transactions involving Analog Devices and Ms. Wynne.

In connection with her appointment, Analog Devices and Ms. Wynne have entered into our standard Employment Retention Agreement for executive officers, and our standard Indemnification Agreement for executive officers, both previously filed.
