Item2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

At the effective time on February24, 2017 (the Effective
Time
), Merger Sub merged with and into Intersil, with
Intersil as the surviving corporation (the Merger). At
the Effective Time,

(a) each share of Intersil ClassA common stock, par value $0.01
per share (Intersil Common Stock), that was issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time
(except for Intersil Common Stock owned by Renesas, Merger
Sub, Intersil, or by any of their respective subsidiaries and
except for dissenting shares) was canceled and converted into
the right to receive $22.50 in cash in United States dollars,
without interest (the Merger Consideration);
(b) each outstanding stock option award to purchase shares of
Intersil Common Stock, whether or not vested, was canceled
and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash
equal to the product of the aggregate number of shares of
Intersil Common Stock subject to such option, and the excess,
if any, of the Merger Consideration over the applicable per
share exercise price under such option;
(c) each outstanding Intersil restricted stock unit award (an
Intersil RSU Award) that was vested as of the
Effective Time was canceled and converted into the right to
receive a cash amount equal to the sum of (1)the product of
the Merger Consideration and the number of shares of Intersil
Common Stock subject to the Intersil RSU Award, and (2)any
cash dividend equivalents that have accrued but remain unpaid
as of the Effective Time on such Intersil RSU Award (such
amount, the RSU Payment);
(d) each outstanding Intersil RSU Award that was not vested as of
the Effective Time was canceled and converted into an
adjusted award having the same terms and conditions
(including vesting and rights to acceleration of vesting,
payment schedule and the right to receive dividend
equivalents that accrued by the Effective Time) as were in
effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that
such adjusted award will be in the form of an unfunded,
unsecured promise of Renesas to deliver to the holder thereof
an amount in cash equal to the RSU Payment; and
(e) with respect to each Intersil RSU Award that was outstanding
and that would otherwise remain subject to an on-going
corporate performance period in the absence of the Merger,
(1)Intersil has accelerated the conclusion of the on-going
performance period to the last business day prior to the
Effective Time (the measurement date) and has
measured performance for each such Intersil RSU Award using
actual performance as of the measurement date, and (2)the
holder of such Intersil RSU Award was deemed, as of
immediately prior to the Effective Time, to have earned and
be fully vested in the number of shares of Intersil Common
Stock earned based on such actual performance and the payout
formula set forth in the applicable award agreement, and the
Intersil Common Stock earned in respect of each such Intersil
RSU Award was canceled and converted into the right to
receive the RSU Payment.

All outstanding stock option awards to purchase shares of
Intersil Common Stock with an exercise price equal to or greater
than the Merger Consideration were cancelled at the Effective
Time for no consideration. No former stock option awards to
purchase shares of Intersil Common Stock remain outstanding.

A total of approximately $3,228,000,000 in cash is expected to be
paid as consideration for the Merger.
