NXP Announces Early Tender Results of the

Tender Offer for 9 3/4% Senior Secured Notes due 2018

Eindhoven, the Netherlands, November 14, 2012. NXP Semiconductors N.V. (together with its subsidiaries, “NXP”) today announced the early tender results of the previously announced tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) by NXP B.V. for up to $500 million in cash of outstanding U.S. dollar-denominated 93/4% Senior Secured Notes due 2018 (the “Notes”), jointly and severally issued by NXP B.V. and NXP Funding LLC. The purpose of the Tender Offer is to allow NXP to lower its interest cost and to extend the maturity profile of its debt. NXP expects to use funds raised in the debt securities or term loan markets to fund the purchase of the Notes in the Tender Offer.

The table below sets forth the results of the Tender Offer for the Notes, according to information provided by Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (the “Tender Agent”), as of the early tender deadline of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 9, 2012. As the aggregate principal amount of the Notes tendered exceeds the $500 million maximum tender amount, the amount of Notes, if any, that will be accepted for purchase will be prorated pursuant to the terms of the offer to purchase dated October 24, 2012 (the “Offer to Purchase”) and the related letter of transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”).
