The committee set the Comparator Group in July 20122014 for the base salary and equity compensation decisions it made in January 2013.2015. For a discussion of the factors considered by the committee in setting the Comparator Group, please see page 71pages 88-89 of the company’s 20132015 proxy statement.
In July 2013,2015, the committee conducted its regular review of the Comparator Group in terms of industry, revenue and market capitalization. With the advice of its compensation consultant, and to increase the group’s overall comparability to TI, the committee removed Oracle, which was atdecided to make no change to the upper end ofgroup. Accordingly, it used the revenue and market capitalization ranges, from the Comparator Group. The committee used thatsame Comparator Group for the bonus decisions in January 20142016 relating to 2013 performance.2015 performance as it used to set salary and equity compensation in January 2015.

Analysis of compensation determinations for 2013 2015 Total compensation – Before finalizing the compensation of the executive officers, the committee reviewed all elements of compensation. The information included total cash compensation (salary, profit sharing and projected bonus), the grant date fair value of equity compensation, the impact that proposed compensation would have on other compensation elements such as pension, and a summary of benefits that the executives would receive under various termination scenarios. The review enabled the committee to see how various compensation elements relate to one another and what impact its decisions would have on the total earnings opportunity of the executives. In assessing the information, the committee did not target a specific level of total compensation or use a formula to allocate compensation among the various elements. Instead, it used its judgment in assessing whether the total was consistent with the objectives of the program. Based on this review, the committee determined that the level of compensation was appropriate. 72 •2014 PROXY STATEMENT | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS |

The committee set the 20132015 base-salary rate for each of the named executive officers in January 2013.2015. In keeping with its strategy, the committee set the annual base-salary rates to be below the estimated median level of salaries expected to be paid to similarly situated executives (considering job scope and tenure) of companies within the Comparator Group in 2013. 2015. The salary differences between the named executive officers were driven primarily by the market rate of pay for each officer, and not the application of a formula designed to maintain a differential between the officers. | | | | | 20 | | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT | | |
Equity compensation – In 2013,2015, the committee awarded equity compensation to each of the named executive officers. The grants are shown in the grants of plan-based awards in 20132015 table on page 83.30. The grant date fair value of the awards is reflected in that table and in the “Stock Awards” and “Option Awards” columns of the summary compensation table on page 81.28. The table below is provided to assist the reader in comparing the number of shares, grant date fair values and “NQ Equivalent” levelsnumber of shares for each of the years shown in the summary compensation table.

In January 2013,2015, the committee awarded equity compensation to each of the named executive officers. The committee’s objective was to award to those officers equity compensation that had a grant date fair value at approximately the median market level, in this case the 40th to 60th percentile of the 3-year average of equity compensation (including an estimate of amounts for 2013)2015) granted by the Comparator Group. TEXAS INSTRUMENTS | 2014 PROXY STATEMENT •73 |
In assessing the market level, the committee considered information presented by TI’s Compensation and Benefits organization (prepared using data provided by the committee’s compensation consultant) on the estimated value of the awards expected to be granted by the Comparator Group to similarly situated executives.executives (considering job scope and tenure) of companies within the Comparator Group. The award value was estimated using the same methodology used for financial accounting.
For each officer, the committee set a number of NQ Equivalents to achieve the desired grant value. The committee decided to allocate the NQ Equivalents for each officervalue equally between restricted stock units and options for each officer, to give equal emphasis to promoting retention, motivating the executive and aligning his interests with those of shareholders.
Before approving the grants, the committee reviewed the amount of unvested equity compensation held by the officers to assess its retention value. In making this assessment, the committee used its judgment and did not apply any formula, threshold or maximum. This review did not result in an increase or decrease of the awards from the levels described above. awards. The exercise price of the options was the closing price of TI stock on January 25, 2013,28, 2015, the thirdsecond trading day after the company released its annual and fourth quarter financial results for 2012.2014. All grants were made under the Texas Instruments 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan, which shareholders approved in April 2009.
All grants have the terms described on pages 85-86.32-33. The differences in the equity awards between the named executive officers were primarily the result of differences in the applicable estimated market level of equity compensation for their positions, and not the application of any formula designed to maintain differentials between the officers. | | | | | | | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT | | 21 |
Bonus – In January 2014,2016, the committee set the 20132015 bonus compensation for executive officers based on its assessment of 20132015 performance. In setting the bonuses, the committee used the following performance measures to assess the company: Therelative one-year and three-year performance of TI as compared with competitor companies, as measured by
revenue growth,operating profit as a percentage of revenue,total shareholder return; and
Theabsolute one-year and three-year performance of TI on the above measures.
| • | | Therelative one-year and three-year performance of TI as compared with competitor companies, as measured by |
| ¡ | | operating profit as a percentage of revenue, |
| ¡ | | total shareholder return; and |
| • | | Theabsolute one-year and three-year performance of TI on the above measures. |
In addition, the committee considered our strategic progress by reviewing how competitive we are in key markets with our core products and technologies, as well as the strength of our relationships with key customers.
One-year relative performance on the three measures and one-year strategic progress were the primary considerations in the committee’s assessment of the company’s 20132015 performance. In assessing performance, the committee did not use formulas, thresholds or multiples. Because market conditions can quickly change in our industry, thresholds established at the beginning of a year could prove irrelevant by year-end. The committee believes its approach, which assesses the company’s relative performance in hindsight after year-end, gives it the insight to most effectively and critically judge results and encourages executives to pursue strategies that serve the long-term interests of the company and its shareholders.
In the comparison of relative performance, the committee used the following companies (the “competitor companies”):2 Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. | | LSI Corporation | Altera Corporation | | Marvell Technology Group Ltd. | Analog Devices, Inc. | | Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. | Atmel Corporation | | Microchip Technology Incorporated | Broadcom Corporation | | NVIDIA Corporation | Fairchild Semiconductor International, Inc. | | NXP Semiconductors N.V. | Freescale Semiconductor, Ltd. | | ON Semiconductor Corporation | Infineon Technologies AG | | QUALCOMM Incorporated | Intel Corporation | | STMicroelectronics N.V. | Intersil Corporation | | Xilinx, Inc. | Linear Technology Corporation | | |

Marvell Technology Group Ltd. Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. Microchip Technology Incorporated NVIDIA Corporation NXP Semiconductors N.V. ON Semiconductor Corporation QUALCOMM Incorporated STMicroelectronics N.V. Xilinx, Inc. This list includes both broad-based and niche suppliers that operate in our key markets or offer technology that competes with our products. The committee considers annually whether the list is still appropriate in terms of revenue, market capitalization and changes in business activities of the companies. In July 2015, the committee added Avago Technologies Limited to increase the overall comparability of the group to TI. In December 2015, Altera Corporation and Freescale Semiconductor, Ltd. were acquired by other companies and accordingly were removed from the list. The committee made no other change to the list of competitor companies in 2013.2015. ____________________Assessment of 2015 performance
The committee spent extensive time in December and January assessing TI’s results and strategic progress for 2015. In setting bonuses, the committee considered quantitative and qualitative measures on both an absolute and relative basis, and it applied judgment. On an absolute basis most measures were positive, and in relative comparisons with competitors most measures were as good as or better than the median. In aggregate, the committee determined that performance in 2015 was strong and on par with the prior year, which also was strong. Therefore, the committee held bonuses for 2015 performance to the same levels they were in 2014 for named executive officers, except for two individuals whose bonuses increased because 2015 was their first full year in current positions. Details on the committee’s assessment are below. Revenue and margin | ¡ | | TI’s revenue decline of 0.3 percent was consistent with the median growth rate as compared with competitor companies. | |

Assessment of 2013 performance
The committee spent extensive time in December and January assessing TI’s results and strategic progress for 2013. The committee considered both quantitative and qualitative data, and it applied judgment in its assessment. Overall, the committee determined that TI’s performance was better than the prior year. Absolute performance in the company’s core businesses was stronger versus a year ago, and relative performance for total TI was, again, better on most measures (see list of competitor companies above). The committee also noted the increasing strength of TI’s strategic position. Commensurate with this performance, the committee set bonuses for executive officers about 10 percent higher than the prior year. Below are details of the committee’s performance assessment.
Revenue and margin
TI revenue declined 4.8 percent, which was below the median growth rate of competitor companies. However, this included a$730 million decline in revenue from legacy wireless products, for which the company has had publicly stated exit plans fora number of years. Excluding the legacy wireless products, TI’s revenue grew about 1 percent, better than the median rateof competitors.3Revenue Revenues for the company’s core businesses of Analog and Embedded Processing waswere up 2.8 percent and8.6 percent, respectively. This resulted in share gains for both businesses.Operating profit margin was 23.2 percent, above the median comparison with competitors.Three-year metrics were -4.4 percent compounded annual revenue growth and 20.1 percent average operating profit margin,below and above the median, respectively, as compared with competitors. (Without the impact of the legacy wireless productsmentioned above, three-year compounded revenue growth was 1.9 percent, above the median comparison with competitors.)
Total shareholder return (TSR)
TSR was 46.3 percent, which was better than the median performance of competitors.The company again generated strong cash, with free cash flow at 24.4 percent of revenue.4More than 100 percent of freecash flow was returned to shareholders in 2013 through share repurchases and dividends. Share repurchases of $2.9 billionreduced outstanding shares by 2.3 percent (net of stock issuances during the year). The quarterly dividend rate increased twice,by 33.32.9 percent and 7.11.7 percent, respectively (the 11thand 12thincreases in ten years). These share repurchases and dividendincreases are an important element of TI’s capital management strategy. TI’s business model, with its focus on Analog andEmbedded Processing semiconductors, allows the company to consistently generate cash and return it to shareholders, whichputs TI within a unique group of companies that do so.The balance sheet remained robust, ending the year with cash and short-term investments of $3.8 billion.Three-year TSR increased 13.2 percent, above the median performance of competitors.
Strategic progress
The company’s efforts over the past five years to focus onrespectively. Analog and Embedded Processing semiconductorseach gained share, as they have yieldedstrong results. Almost 80 percent of revenue in 2013 came from these core businesses, which serve markets with thousands ofpossible applications and have dependable long-term growth opportunities. The company’s customer base is highly diverse, withno single customer representing more than 7 percent of total revenue.The successful integration of National Semiconductor continued, with the associated product lines gaining market share in 2013,a year ahead of schedule.Also of note were the company’s strategic access to low-cost capacity for future revenue growth, and its strong customer andmarket share position in China.In all, the committee concluded that the strategic condition of the company continued to improve and provides a sustainablecompetitive advantage.

In 2015, TI’s revenue from automotive applications increased by two points, and its revenue percentage from industrial applications held consistent after several years of steady increases. Overall, diversity in applications and customers provides for better stability because success is not dependent on a single market or buyer. | |
| • | | TI’s in-house capability to produce high volumes of Analog semiconductors on 300-millimeter wafers remains a competitive advantage. In 2015, the company increased production on 300-millimeter wafers, which enabled more chips to be produced per wafer, thereby improving margins and cash flowgeneration. Additionally, TI continues to leverage existing facilities, along with equipment that has been strategically acquired at low price points, to enable the company to increase production levels yet keep capital spending at about 4 percent of revenue. | |
| • | | In total, the committee determined that TI’s strategic position was strengthened by management’s decisions and actions in 2015, noting sustainable advantages in the company’s manufacturing and technology, the breadth and differentiation of its product portfolio, and the ratios based on it are non-GAAP financial measures.

The performance of the CEO was judged according to the performance of the company. For the other officers, the committee considered the factors described below in assessing individual performance. In making this assessment, the committee did not apply any formula or performance targets.
Mr. March is the chief financial officer. The committee noted the financial management of the company.
Mr. Crutcher is responsible for all of the company’s product lines and sales activities. The committee noted the financial performance and strategic position of the product lines and activities for which he is responsible. Mr. Anderson is responsible for the company’s analog semiconductor product lines. The committee noted the financial performance and strategic position of the product lines. lines for which he is responsible. Mr. Ritchie is responsible for the company’s semiconductor manufacturing operations. The committee noted the performance of those operations, including their cost-competitiveness and inventory management.
Mr. Delagi is responsible for the company’s embedded processing and custom product lines. The committee noted the financial performance and strategic position of these product lines.
The bonuses awarded for 20132015 performance are shown in the table on page 77.below. The differences in the amounts awarded to the named executive officers were primarily the result of differences in the officers’ level of responsibility and the applicable market level of total cash compensation expected to be paid to similarly situated officers inat companies within the Comparator Group. The bonus of each named executive officer was paid under the Executive Officer Performance Plan described on pages 8028 and 83.30. 76 •2014 PROXY STATEMENT | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS |
Results of the compensation decisions – Results of the compensation decisions made by the committee relating to the named executive officers for 20132015 are summarized in the following table. This table is provided as a supplement to the summary compensation table on page 8128 for investors who may find it useful to see the data presented in this form. Although the committee does not target a specific level of total compensation, it considers information similar to that in the table to ensure that the sum of these elements is, in its judgment, in a reasonable range.

For Messrs. Templeton and Ritchie, the “Total” was higher for 2013 than for 2012 primarily due to the combination of higher bonus levels and the higher grant date fair value of their equity compensation. For Mr. March, the “Total” was essentially unchanged for 2013 as compared to 2012. For the other officers, the ”Total” was lower for 2013 due to the lower grant date fair value of their equity compensation.

TEXAS INSTRUMENTS | 2014 • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT•77 | | |
For Mr. Crutcher, the “Total” for 2015 was higher than for 2014 primarily due to the higher grant date fair value of his equity compensation in 2015, the first full year in which he was in his current position. For Mr. Anderson, the “Total” for 2015 was lower than for 2014 due to the lower value of his equity compensation as compared to 2014, when he received a retention grant upon assuming his current position. For the other officers, including Mr. Templeton, the “Total” for 2015 was essentially unchanged from 2014, as the bonus for 2015 and the value of 2015 equity compensation granted to each of them were held flat. The compensation decisions shown above resulted in the following 20132015 compensation mix for the named executive officers: |
| | | | | | * Average data for the named executive officers other than Mr. Templeton. | |
Equity dilution
The Compensation Committee’s goal is to keep net annual dilution from equity compensation under 2 percent. “Net annual dilution” means the number of shares under equity awards granted by the committee each year to all employees (net of award forfeitures) as a percentage of the shares of the company’s outstanding common stock. Equity awards granted in 2013 under the company’s equity-compensation program2015 resulted in 1.3 percent net annual dilution. Process for equity grants
The Compensation Committee makes grant decisions for equity compensation at its January meeting each year. The dates on which these meetings occur are generally set three years in advance. The January meetings of the board and the committee generally occur in the week or two before we announce our financial results for the previous quarter and year.
On occasion, the committee may grant stock options or restricted stock units to executives at times other than January. For example, it has done so in connection with job promotions and for purposes of retention.
We do not back-date stock options or restricted stock units. We do not accelerate or delay the release of information due to plans for making equity grants.
If the committee meeting falls in the same month as the release of the company’s financial results, the committee’s practice is to make grants effective (i) after the results have been released or (ii) on the meeting day if later. In other months, its practice is to make them effective on the day of committee action. The exercise price of stock options is the closing price of TI stock on the effective date of the grant. Recoupment policy
The committee has a policy concerning recoupment (“clawback”) of executive bonuses and equity compensation. Under the policy, in the event of a material restatement of TI’s financial results due to misconduct, the committee will review the facts and circumstances and take the actions it considers appropriate with respect to the compensation of any executive officer whose fraud or willful misconduct contributed to the need for such restatement. Such action may include (a) seeking reimbursement of any bonus paid to such officer exceeding the amount that, in the judgment of the committee, would have been paid had the financial | | | | | | | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT | | 25 |
results been properly reported and (b) seeking to recover profits received by such officer during the twelve months after the restated period under equity compensation awards. All determinations by the committee with respect to this policy are final and binding on all interested parties. Most recent stockholder advisory vote on executive compensation
In April 2013,2015, our shareholders cast an advisory vote on the company’s executive compensation decisions and policies as disclosed in the proxy statement issued by the company in March 2013.2015. Approximately 9596 percent of the shares voted on the matter were cast in support of the compensation decisions and policies as disclosed. The committee considered this result and determined that it was not necessary at this time to make any material changes to the company’s compensation policies and practices in response to the advisory vote. 78 •2014 PROXY STATEMENT | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS |
Benefits Benefits Retirement plans
The executive officers participate in our retirement plans under the same rules that apply to other U.S. employees. We maintain these plans to have a competitive benefits program and for retention.
Like other established U.S. manufacturers, we have had a U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan for many years. At its origin, the plan was designed to be consistent with those offered by other employers in the diverse markets in which we operated, which at the time included consumer and defense electronics as well as semiconductors and materials products. In order to limit the cost of the plan, we closed the plan to new participants in 1997. We gave U.S. employees as of November 1997 the choice to remain in the plan, or to have their plan benefits frozen (i.e., no benefit increase attributable to years of service or change in eligible earnings) and begin participating in an enhanced defined contribution plan. Mr. Templeton and Mr. Crutcher chose not to remain in the defined benefit plan. As a result, their benefits under that plan were frozen in 1997 and they participate in the enhanced defined contribution plan. Mr. Anderson, who joined the company in 1999, participates in the enhanced defined contribution plan. The other named executive officers have continued their participation in the defined benefit pension plan.
The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) imposes certain limits on the retirement benefits that may be provided under a qualified plan. To maintain the desired level of benefits, we have non-qualified defined benefit pension plans for participants in the qualified pension plan. Under the non-qualified plans, participants receive benefits that would ordinarily be paid under the qualified pension plan but for the limitations under the IRC. For additional information about the defined benefit plans, please see pages 86-90. 34-36. Employees accruing benefits in the qualified pension plan, including the named executive officers other than Mr. Templeton, Mr. Crutcher and Mr. Crutcher,Anderson, also are eligible to participate in a qualified defined contribution plan that provides employer matching contributions. The enhanced defined contribution plan, in which Mr. Templeton, Mr. Crutcher and Mr. CrutcherAnderson participate, provides for a fixed employer contribution plus an employer matching contribution.
In general, if an employee who participates in the pension plan (including an employee whose benefits are frozen as described above) dies after having met the requirements for normal or early retirement, his or her beneficiary will receive a benefit equal to the lump-sum amount that the participant would have received if he or she had retired before death. In 2013, havingHaving already reached the age of 55 withand at least 20 years of employment, Mr. Templeton, Mr. March and Mr. Ritchie wereare eligible for early retirement under the pension plans.
Because benefits under the qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans are calculated on the basis of eligible earnings (salary and bonus), an increase in salary or bonus may result in an increase in benefits under the plans. Salary or bonus increases for Mr. Templeton and Mr. Crutcher do not result in greater benefits for them under the company’s defined benefit pension plans because their benefits under those plans were frozen in 1997. Mr. Anderson does not participate in the company’s defined benefit pension plans. The committee considers the potential effect on the executives’ retirement benefits when it sets salary and performance bonus levels. Deferred compensation
Any U.S. employee whose base salary and management responsibility exceed a certain level may defer the receipt of a portion of his or her salary, bonus and profit sharing. Rules of the U.S. Department of Labor require that this plan be limited to a select group of management or highly compensated employees. The plan allows employees to defer the receipt of their compensation in a tax-efficient manner. Eligible employees include, but are not limited to, the executive officers. We have the plan to be competitive with the benefits packages offered by other companies.
| | | | | 26 | | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT | | |
The executive officers’ deferred compensation account balances are unsecured and all amounts remain part of the company’s operating assets. The value of the deferred amounts tracks the performance of investment alternatives selected by the participant. These alternatives are a subset of those offered to participants in the defined contribution plans described above. The company does not guarantee any minimum return on the amounts deferred. In accordance with SEC rules, no earnings on deferred compensation are shown in the summary compensation table on page 8128 for 20132015 because no “above market” rates were earned on deferred amounts in that year. Employee stock purchase plan
Our shareholders approved the TI Employees 2005 Stock Purchase Plan in April 2005. We have an employee stock purchase plan. Under the plan, which our shareholders approved, all employees in the U.S. and certain other countries may purchase a limited number of shares of the company’s common stock at a 15 percent discount. The plan is designed to offer the broad-based employee population an opportunity to acquire an equity interest in the company and thereby align their interests with those of shareholders. Consistent with our general approach to benefit programs, executive officers are also eligible to participate. TEXAS INSTRUMENTS | 2014 PROXY STATEMENT •79 |
Health-related benefits
Executive officers are eligible under the same plans as all other U.S. employees for medical, dental, vision, disability and life insurance. These benefits are intended to be competitive with benefits offered in the semiconductor industry. Other benefits
Executive officers receive only a few benefits that are not available to all other U.S. employees. The CEO is eligible for a company-paid physical and financial counseling. In addition, the board of directors has determined that for security reasons, it is in the company’s interest to require the CEO to use company aircraft for personal air travel. Please see pages 8229 (footnote 6) and 9038 for further details. The company provides no tax gross-ups for perquisites to any of the executive officers. Compensation following employment termination or change in control
None of the executive officers has an employment contract. Executive officers are eligible for benefits on the same terms as other U.S. employees upon termination of employment or a change in control of the company. The current programs are described under the heading Potential Paymentspayments upon Terminationtermination or Changechange in Controlcontrol beginning on page 90.37. None of the few additional benefits that the executive officers receive continue after termination of employment, except the amount for financial counseling is provided in the following year in the event of retirement. The committee reviews the potential impact of these programs before finalizing the annual compensation for the named executive officers. The committee did not raise or lower compensation for 20132015 based on this review.
The Texas Instruments 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan generally establishes double-trigger change-in-control terms for grants made in 2010 and later years. Under those terms, options become fully exercisable and shares are issued under restricted stock unit awards (to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the IRC) if the grantee is involuntarily terminated within 24 months after a change in control of TI. These terms are intended to encourage employees to remain with the company through a transaction while reducing employee uncertainty and distraction in the period leading up to any such event. Stock ownership guidelines and policy against hedging
Our board of directors has established stock ownership guidelines for executive officers. The guideline for the CEO is four times base salary or 125,000 shares, whichever is less. The guideline for other executive officers is three times base salary or 25,000 shares, whichever is less. Executive officers have five years from their election as executive officers to reach these targets. Directly owned shares and restricted stock units count toward satisfying the guidelines.
Short sales of TI stock by our executive officers are prohibited. It is against TI policy for any employee, including an executive officer, to engage in trading in “puts” (options to sell at a fixed price on or before a certain date)price), “calls” (similar options to buy), or other options or hedging techniques on TI stock.stock. Consideration of tax and accounting treatment of compensation
Section 162(m) of the IRC generally denies a deduction to any publicly held corporation for compensation paid in a taxable year to the company’s CEO and three other highest compensated officers excluding the CFO, to the extent that the officer’s compensation (other than qualified performance-based compensation) exceeds $1 million. The Compensation Committee considers the impact of this deductibility limit on the compensation that it intends to award. The committee exercises its discretion to award compensation that does not meet the requirements of Section 162(m) when applying the limits of Section 162(m) would frustrate or be inconsistent with our compensation policies and/or when the value of the foregone deduction would not be material. The | | | | | | | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT | | 27 |
committee has exercised this discretion when awarding restricted stock units that vest over time, without performance conditions to vesting. The committee believes it is in the best interest of the company and our shareholders that restricted stock unit awards provide for the retention of our executive officers in all market conditions.
The Texas Instruments Executive Officer Performance Plan is intended to ensure that performance bonuses under the plan are fully tax deductible under Section 162(m). The plan, which shareholders approved in 2002, is further described on page 83.30. The committee’s general policy is to award bonuses within the plan, although the committee reserves the discretion to pay a bonus outside the plan if it determines that it is in the best interest of the company and our shareholders to do so. The committee set the bonuses of the named executive officers for 20132015 performance at the levels described on page 77.pages 22 and 24. The bonuses were awarded within the plan.
When setting equity compensation, the committee considers the estimated cost for financial reporting purposes of equity compensation it intends to grant. Its consideration of the estimated cost of grants made in 20132015 is discussed on pages 73-74.page 21. 80 •2014 PROXY STATEMENT | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS |

* | | Defined for purposes of equity awards made after 2012 as at least age 55 with 10 or more years of TI service or at least age 65. For awards made before 2013, the definition of normal or early retirement eligibility in the relevant pension plan applies (see page 87)35). | |
** | | This provision is not applicable to grants made after 2012. |
Options may be cancelled if, the grantee competes with TI during the two years after employment termination, the grantee competes with TI or solicits TI employees to work for another company, or if the grantee discloses TI trade secrets. In addition, for options received while the grantee was an executive officer, the company may reclaim (or “claw back”) profits earned under grants if the officer engages in such conduct. These provisions are intended to strengthen retention and provide a reasonable remedy to TI in case of competition, solicitation of our employees or disclosure of our confidential information.
Options granted after 2009 become fully vested if the grantee is involuntarily terminated from employment with TI (other than for cause) within 24 months after a change in control of TI. “Change in control” is defined as provided in the Texas Instruments 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan and occurs upon (1) acquisition of more than 50 percent of the voting stock or at least 80 percent of the assets of TI or (2) change of a majority of the board of directors in a 12-month period unless a majority of the directors then in office endorsed the appointment or election of the new directors (“Plan definition”). These terms are intended to reduce employee uncertainty and distraction in the period leading up to a change in control, if such an event were to occur. For options granted before 2010, the stock option terms provide that upon a change in control of TI, the option becomes fully vested to the extent it is then outstanding; and if employment termination (except for cause) has occurred within 30 days before the change in control, the change in control is deemed to have occurred first. “Change in control” is defined in these pre-2010 options as (1) acquisition of 20 percent of TI common stock other than through a transaction approved by the board of directors, or (2) change of a majority of the board of directors in a 24-month period unless a majority of the directors then in office have elected or nominated the new directors (together, the “pre-2010 definition”). TEXAS INSTRUMENTS | 2014 PROXY STATEMENT •85 |
The “Stock Awards”“Stock Awards” in the table of outstanding equity awards at fiscal year-end 20132015 are RSU awards. Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of TI common stock on a stated date (the “vesting date”) unless the award is terminated earlier under terms summarized below. In general, the vesting date is approximately four years after the grant date. Each RSU includes the right to receive dividend equivalents, which are paid annually in cash at a rate equal to the amount paid to stockholders in dividends. | | | | | 32 | | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT | | |
The table below shows the termination provisions of RSUs outstanding as of December 31, 2013.2015. | | Employment Termination | | Employment | | Other Circumstances | Employment Termination Due toDeath or Permanent Disability | | Employment Termination (at Least 6 Months after Grant) | | Termination for | | of Employment | Due to Death or Permanent DisabilityWhen Retirement Eligible | | When Retirement EligibleEmployment Termination for Cause | | Cause | | Other Circumstances of Employment Termination | Vesting continues; shares are paid at the scheduled vesting date | | For grants made after 2012: Grant stays in effect and pays out shares at the scheduled vesting date.date | | Grant cancels; no shares are issued | | Grant cancels; no shares are issued | | | | | | | | | | For grants made before 2013: Grant stays in effect and pays out shares at the scheduled vesting date.

* | | Calculated by multiplying the number of RSUs by a fraction equal to the number of whole 365-day periods from the grant date to the employment termination date (or first day of any bridge leave of absence leading to retirement), divided by the number of years in the vesting period. |
These termination provisions are intended to promote retention. All RSU awards contain cancellation and clawback provisions like those described above for stock options. The terms provide that, to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the IRC, the award vests upon involuntary termination of TI employment within 24 months after a change in control. Change in control is the Plan definition. These cancellation, clawback and change-in-control terms are intended to conform RSU terms with those of stock options (to the extent permitted by the IRC) and to achieve the objectives described above in the discussion of stock options.
In addition to the “Stock Awards” shown in the outstanding equity awards at fiscal year-end 20132015 table on pages 84 and 85,page 31, Mr. Templeton holds an award of RSUs that was granted in 1995. The award, for 120,000 shares of TI common stock, vested in 2000. Under the award terms, the shares will be issued to Mr. Templeton in March of the year after his termination of employment for any reason. These terms were designed to provide a tax benefit to the company by postponing the related compensation expense until it was likely to be fully deductible. In accordance with SEC requirements, this award is reflected in the 20132015 non-qualified deferred compensation table on page 89.36. 20132015 option exercises and stock vested
The following table lists the number of shares acquired and the value realized as a result of option exercises by the named executive officers in 20132015 and the value of any RSUs that vested in 2013.2015. For option exercises, the value realized is calculated by multiplying the number of shares acquired by the difference between the exercise price and the market price of TI common stock on the exercise date. For RSUs, the value realized is calculated by multiplying the number of RSUs that vested by the market price of TI common stock on the vesting date. | | Option Awards | | Stock Awards | | | Number of | | | | | | | Number of | | | | | | | | Shares Acquired | | Value Realized | | Shares Acquired | | Value Realized | Name | | on Exercise (#) | | on Exercise ($) | | on Vesting (#) | | on Vesting ($) | R.

(1) | Mr. Anderson does not participate in any of the company’s defined benefit pension plans because he joined TI after these plans were closed to new participants. |
(2) | In 1997, TI’s U.S. employees were given the choice between continuing to participate in the defined benefit pension plans or participating in a new enhanced defined contribution retirement plan. Messrs. Templeton and Crutcher chose to participate in the defined contribution plan. Accordingly, their accrued pension benefits under the qualified and non-qualified plans were frozen (i.e., they will experience no increase attributable to years of service or change in eligible earnings) as of December 31, 1997. Contributions to the defined contribution plan for Mr. Templeton’s and Mr. Crutcher’s benefits are included in the 20132015 summary compensation table. |
| (2) | (3) | For each of the named executive officers, credited service began on the date the officer became eligible to participate in the plan. For Mr. Crutcher, eligibility to participate began on the first day of the month following completion of one year of employment. For each of the other named executive officers, eligibility to participate began on the earlier of 18 months of employment, or January 1 following the completion of one year of employment. Accordingly, each of the named executive officers has been employed by TI for longer than the years of credited service shown above. |
| (3) | (4) | Credited service began on the date the named executive officer became eligible to participate in the TI Employees Pension Plan as described in note 23 above and ceased at December 31, 2004. |
| (4) | (5) | Credited service began on the date the named executive officer became eligible to participate in the TI Employees Pension Plan as described in note 23 above. |
| (5) | (6) | The assumptions and valuation methods used to calculate the present value of the accumulated pension benefits shown are the same as those used by TI for financial reporting purposes and are described in Note 1110 to the financial statements contained in Exhibit 13 toItem 8 in TI’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013,2015, except that a named executive officer’s retirement is assumed (in accordance with SEC rules) for purposes of this table to occur at age 65 and no assumption for termination prior to that date is used. The amount of the lump-sum benefit earned as of December 31, 2013,2015, is determined using either (i) the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) interest assumption of 2.251.50 percent or (ii) the Pension Protection Act of 2006 (PPA) corporate bond yield interest assumption of 5.114.62 percent for the TI Employees Pension Plan and 5.184.64 percent for the TI Employees Non-Qualified Pension Plans, whichever rate produces the higher lump sum amount. A discount rate assumption of 5.114.62 percent for the TI Employees Pension Plan and 5.184.64 percent for the non-qualified pension plans was used to determine the present value of each lump sum. |

TI Employees Pension Plan
The TI Employees Pension Plan is a qualified defined benefit pension plan. Please see page 7926 for a discussion of the origin and purpose of the plan. Employees who joined the U.S. payroll after November 30, 1997, are not eligible to participate in this plan.
A plan participant is eligible for normal retirement under the terms of the plan if he is at least 65 years of age with one year of credited service. A participant is eligible for early retirement if he is at least 55 years of age with 20 years of employment or 60 years of age with five years of employment. As of December 31, 2013,2015, Mr. Templeton, Mr. March and Mr. Ritchie were eligible for early or normal retirement. TEXAS INSTRUMENTS | 2014 PROXY STATEMENT •87 |
A participant may request payment of his accrued benefit at termination or any time thereafter. Participants may choose a lump sum payment or one of six forms of annuity. In order of largest to smallest periodic payment, the forms of annuity are: (i) single life annuity, (ii) 5-year certain and life annuity, (iii) 10-year certain and life annuity, (iv) qualified joint and 50 percent survivor annuity, (v) qualified joint and 75 percent survivor annuity, and (vi) qualified joint and 100 percent survivor annuity. If the participant does not request payment, he will begin to receive his benefit in April of the year after he reaches the age of 70½70 1⁄2 in the form of annuity required under the IRC.
The pension formula for the qualified plan is intended to provide a participant with an annual retirement benefit equal to 1.5 percent multiplied by the product of (i) years of credited service and (ii) the average of the five highest consecutive years of his base salary plus bonus up to a limit imposed by the IRS, less a percentage (based on his year of birth, when he elects to retire and his years of service with TI) of the amount of compensation on which his Social Security benefit is based.
If an individual takes early retirement and chooses to begin receiving his annual retirement benefit at that time, such benefit is reduced by an early retirement factor. As a result, the annual benefit is lower than the one he would have received at age 65.
If the participant’s employment terminates due to disability, the participant may choose to receive his accrued benefit at any time prior to age 65. Alternatively, the participant may choose to defer receipt of the accrued benefit until reaching age 65 and then take a disability benefit. The disability benefit paid at age 65 is based on salary and bonus, years of credited service the participant would have accrued to age 65 had he not become disabled and disabled status.
The benefit payable in the event of death is based on salary and bonus, years of credited service and age at the time of death, and may be in the form of a lump sum or annuity at the election of the beneficiary. The earliest date of payment is the first day of the second calendar month following the month of death.
Leaves of absence, including a bridge to retirement, are credited to years of service under the qualified pension plan. Please see the discussion of leaves of absence on page 90.38. TI Employees Non-Qualified Pension Plans employees non-qualified pension plans TI has two non-qualified pension plans: the TI Employees Non-Qualified Pension Plan (Plan I), which governs amounts earned before 2005; and the TI Employees Non-Qualified Pension Plan II (Plan II), which governs amounts earned after 2004. Each is a non-qualified defined benefit pension plan. Please see page 7926 for a discussion of the purpose of the plans. As with the qualified defined benefit pension plan, employees who joined the U.S. payroll after November 30, 1997, are not eligible to participate in Plan I or Plan II. Eligibility for normal and early retirement under these plans is the same as under the qualified plan (please see above). Benefits are paid in a lump sum.
A participant’s benefits under Plan I and Plan II are calculated using the same formula as described above for the TI Employees Pension Plan. However, the IRS limit on the amount of compensation on which a qualified pension benefit may be calculated does not apply. Additionally, the IRS limit on the amount of qualified benefit the participant may receive does not apply to these plans. Once this non-qualified benefit amount has been determined using the formula described above, the individual’s qualified benefit is subtracted from it. The resulting difference is multiplied by an age-based factor to obtain the amount of the lump-sum benefit payable to an individual under the non-qualified plans.
Amounts under Plan I will be distributed when payment of the participant’s benefit under the qualified pension plan commences. Amounts under Plan II will be distributed subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the IRC. Because the named executive officers are among the 50 most highly compensated officers of the company, Section 409A of the IRC requires that they not receive any lump sum distribution payment under Plan II before the first day of the seventh month following termination of employment.
If a participant terminates due to disability, amounts under Plan I will be distributed when payment of the participant’s benefit under the qualified plan commences. For amounts under Plan II, distribution is governed by Section 409A of the IRC, and the disability benefit is reduced to reflect the payment of the benefit prior to age 65.
| | | | | | | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT | | 35 |
In the event of death, payment under both plans is based on salary and bonus, years of credited service and age at the time of death and will be in the form of a lump sum. The earliest date of payment is the first day of the second calendar month following the month of death.
Balances in the plans are unsecured obligations of the company. For amounts under Plan I, in the event of a change in control, the present value of the individual’s benefit would be paid not later than the month following the month in which the change in control occurred. For such amounts, the pre-2010 definition of a change in control (please see page 85)32) applies. For all amounts accrued under this plan, if a sale of substantially all of the assets of the company occurred, the present value of the individual’s benefit would be distributed in a lump sum as soon as reasonably practicable following the sale of assets. For amounts under Plan II, no distribution of benefits is triggered by a change in control.
Leaves of absence, including a bridge to retirement, are credited to years of service under the non-qualified pension plans. For a discussion of leaves of absence, please see pages 90-91.page 38. 88 •2014 PROXY STATEMENT | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS |
TI Employees Survivor Benefit Plan
TI’s qualified and non-qualified pension plans provide that upon the death of a retirement-eligible employee, the employee’s beneficiary receives a payment equal to half of the benefit to which the employee would have been entitled under the pension plans had he retired instead of died. We have a survivor benefit plan that pays the beneficiary a lump sum that, when added to the reduced amounts the beneficiary receives under the pension plans, equals the benefit the employee would have been entitled to receive had he retired instead of died. Because Messers. Templeton, March and Ritchie were eligible for early retirement in 2013,2015, their beneficiaries would be eligible for benefits under the survivor benefit plan if they were to die. 20132015 non-qualified deferred compensation

Please see page 7926 for a discussion of the purpose of the plan. An employee’s deferred compensation account contains eligible compensation the employee has elected to defer and contributions by the company that are in excess of the IRS limits on (i) contributions the company may make to the enhanced defined contribution plan and (ii) matching contributions the company may make related to compensation the executive officer deferred into his deferred compensation account.
Participants in the deferred compensation plan may choose to defer up to (i) 25 percent of their base salary, (ii) 90 percent of their performance bonus, and (iii) 90 percent of profit sharing. Elections to defer compensation must be made in the calendar year prior to the year in which the compensation will be earned.
During 2013,2015, participants could choose to have their deferred compensation mirror the performance of one or more of the following mutual funds, each of which is managed by a third party (these alternatives, which may be changed at any time, are a subset of those offered to participants in the defined contribution plans): BlackRock MSCI ACWI ex-U.S. IMI Index Non-Lendable Fund F, Northern Trust Short Term Investment Fund, Northern Trust Aggregate Bond Index Fund-Lending, Northern Trust Russell 1000 Value Index Fund-Lending, Northern Trust Russell 1000 Growth Index Fund-Lending, Northern Trust Russell 2000 Index Fund-Lending, Northern Trust MidCap 400 Index Fund-Lending, Fidelity Puritan Fund, BlackRock Equity Index Fund F, BlackRock (EAFE) (Europe, Australia, Far East) Equity Index Fund F, BlackRock Lifepath Index 2020 Fund F, BlackRock Lifepath Index 2030 Fund F, BlackRock Lifepath Index 2040 Fund F, BlackRock Lifepath Index 2050 Fund F and BlackRock Lifepath Index Retirement Fund F. From among the available investment alternatives, participants may change their instructions relating to their deferred compensation daily. Earnings on a participant’s balance are determined solely by the performance of the investments that the participant has chosen for his plan balance. The company does not guarantee any minimum return on investments. A third party administers the company’s deferred compensation program. TEXAS INSTRUMENTS | 2014 PROXY STATEMENT •89 |
A participant may request distribution from the plan in the case of an unforeseeable emergency. To obtain an unforeseeable emergency withdrawal, a participant must meet the requirements of Section 409A of the IRC. Otherwise, a participant’s balance is paid pursuant to his distribution election and is subject to applicable IRC limitations.
Amounts contributed by the company, and amounts earned and deferred by the participant for which there is a valid distribution election on file, will be distributed in accordance with the participant’s election. Annually participants may elect separate distribution dates for deferred compensation attributable to a participant’s (i) bonus and profit sharing and (ii) salary. Participants may elect that these distributions be in the form of a lump sum or annual installments to be paid out over a period of five or ten consecutive years. Amounts for which no valid distribution election is on file will be distributed three years from the date of deferral.
In the event of the participant’s death, payment will be in the form of a lump sum and the earliest date of payment is the first day of the second calendar month following the month of death.
Like the balances under the non-qualified defined benefit pension plans, deferred compensation balances are unsecured obligations of the company. For amounts earned and deferred prior to 2010, a change in control does not trigger a distribution under the plan. For amounts earned and deferred after 2009, distribution occurs, to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the IRC, if the participant is involuntarily terminated within 24 months after a change in control. Change in control is the Plan definition. Potential payments upon termination or change in control None of the named executive officers has an employment contract with the company. They are eligible for benefits on generally the same terms as other U.S. employees upon termination of employment or change in control of the company. TI does not reimburse executive officers for any income or excise taxes that are payable by the executive as a result of payments relating to termination or change in control. Termination
The following programs may result in payments to a named executive officer whose employment terminates. Most of these programs have been discussed above. For a discussion of the impact of these programs on the compensation decisions for 2013,2015, please see page 80.pages 20 and 27. Bonus.Bonus
Our policies concerning bonus and the timing of payments are described on page 71.pages 18-19. Whether a bonus would be awarded under other circumstances and in what amount would depend on the facts and circumstances of termination and is subject to the Compensation Committee’s discretion. If awarded, bonuses are paid by the company. | | | | | | | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT | | 37 |
Qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans.plans The purposes of these plans are described on page 79.26. The formula for determining benefits, the forms of benefit and the timing of payments are described on page 88.pages 34-36. The amounts disbursed under the qualified and non-qualified plans are paid, respectively, by the TI Employees Pension Trust and the company. Survivor benefit plan.plan The purpose of this plan is described on page 89.36. The formula for determining the amount of benefit, the form of benefit and the timing of payments are described on page 89.36. Amounts distributed are paid by the TI Employees Health Benefit Trust. Deferred compensation plan.plan The purpose of this plan is described on page 79.26. The amounts payable under this program depend solely on the performance of investments that the participant has chosen for his plan balance. The timing of payments is discussed on page 90.37. Amounts distributed are paid by the company. Equity compensation.compensation Depending on the circumstances of termination, grantees whose employment terminates may retain the right to exercise previously granted stock options and receive shares under outstanding RSU awards. Please see pages 85-86.32-33. RSU awards include a right to receive dividend equivalents. The dividend equivalents are paid annually by the company in a single cash payment after the last dividend payment of the year. Perquisites.Perquisites
Financial counseling is available to executive officers in the year after retirement. Otherwise, no perquisites continue after termination of employment. In the case of a resignation pursuant to a separation arrangement, an executive officer (like other employees above a certain job grade level) will typically be offered a 12-month paid leave of absence before termination, in exchange for a non-compete and non-solicitation commitment and a release of claims against the company. The leave period will be credited to years of service under the pension plans described above. During the leave, the executive officer’s stock options will continue to become exercisable and his RSUs will continue to vest. Amounts paid to an individual during a paid leave of absence are not counted when calculating benefits under the qualified and non-qualified pension plans. 90 •2014 PROXY STATEMENT | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS |
In the case of a separation arrangement in which the paid leave of absence expires when the executive officer will be at least 50 years old and have at least 15 years of employment with the company on his or her last day of active employment before beginning the paid leave of absence, the separation arrangement will typically include an unpaid leave of absence, to commence at the end of the paid leave and end when the executive officer has reached the earlier of age 55 with at least 20 years of employment or age 60 with at least five years of service (bridge to retirement). The bridge to retirement will be credited to years of service under the qualified and non-qualified defined benefitpension plans described above. Stock options will continue to become exercisable and RSUs will remain in effect, but for grants made before 2013, the number of RSUs will be reduced as described in note * on page 86.33. Change in Controlcontrol
Our only program, plan or arrangement providing benefits triggered by a change in control is the TI Employees Non-Qualified Pension Plan. A change in control at December 31, 2013,2015, would have accelerated payment of the balance under that plan. Please see page 8836 for a discussion of the purpose of change in control provisions of that plan as well as the circumstances and the timing of payment.
Upon a change in control there is no acceleration of vesting of stock options and RSUs granted after 2009. Only afterupon an involuntary termination (not for cause) within 24 months after a change in control of TI will the vesting of such stock options and RSUs accelerate. Please see pages 85-8632 and 33 for further information concerning change in control provisions relating to stock options and RSUs.
For a discussion of the impact of these programs on the compensation decisions for 2013,2015, please see page 80.pages 20 and 27. | | | | | 38 | | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS | 2014 • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT•91 | | |

PROPOSAL TO APPROVE THE TI EMPLOYEES 2014 STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
The board of directors is requesting that stockholdersProposal to approve the TI Employees 2014 Stock Purchase Plan (the “2014 ESPP”). The board believes the 2014 ESPP is in the best interest of stockholders as it enhances broad-based employee stock ownership (thus further aligning the interest of employees with TI stockholders) and helps the company attract, motivate and retain employees.
The full textamendment of the 2014 ESPP is Exhibit A to this proxy statement. The principal features of the 2014 ESPP are summarized below. The description below is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the 2014 ESPP. The terms of the 2014 ESPP are substantially similar to those of the TI Employees 2005 Stock PurchaseTexas Instruments 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2005 ESPP”) that was approved by stockholders in April 2005. No offerings under the 2005 ESPP will be made following the completion of any offering pending on the effective date of the 2014 ESPP.
Key plan provisions
Eligibility
All employees of TI, and such of its subsidiaries as the Compensation Committee of the company’s board of directors shall designate, who are employees on the date of grant of the option (including those on paid or unpaid leave of absence if the company expects that the employee will return to work), will be eligible to participate in offerings of options under the 2014 ESPP. On or prior to the date of grant, the Compensation Committee will determine the effect of an employee’s termination of employment during the term of the offering. Directors who are not employees will not be eligible to participate in the 2014 ESPP.
Offerings
Each year during the term of the 2014 ESPP, unless the Compensation Committee determines otherwise, TI will make one or more offers to each eligible employee of options to purchase TI common stock. Each eligible employee will be entitled to purchase up to a number or dollar amount of shares as the Compensation Committee may determine (but not exceeding the amount specified in Section 423(b) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”)) for the offering. The option price for each offering will be determined by the Compensation Committee and will not be less than (1) 85% of the fair market value of TI common stock on the date of grant of the option or (2) 85% of the fair market value of TI common stock on the date the option is exercised, whichever is lower. The date of grant will be as determined by the Compensation Committee. The fair market value of TI stock will be determined by the method or procedure established by the Compensation Committee. The closing price for TI common stock on February 18, 2014, was $44.01.
The expiration date of the options will be determined for each offering by the Compensation Committee but will not be later than 27 months from the date of grant of the option.
The term of an option will consist of an Enrollment Period, a Payroll Deduction Period and an Exercise Day. The beginning and ending dates of each Enrollment Period and Payroll Deduction Period and the date of each Exercise Day will be determined by the Compensation Committee. The employee may elect to be automatically re-enrolled in subsequent offerings. The employee’s election to participate in the offering will indicate the dollar amount of shares for which the employee wishes to participate and, unless prohibited by local law, will authorize payroll deductions to be made over the Payroll Deduction Period. If local law prohibits payroll deductions, the Compensation Committee may determine an alternative method of payment. During the Payroll Deduction Period, the Compensation Committee may allow participants to cancel or reduce (or both) their payment authorizations. After completion of the Payroll Deduction Period, the option will be automatically exercised on the Exercise Day and shares will be purchased with the amount in the employee’s account.
Under the 2005 ESPP, options are currently granted in four sets of offerings each year on the first day that the NASDAQ Stock Market is open for trading in December, March, June and September. The Payroll Deduction Period consists of three calendar months beginning on the first day of the calendar month following the grant date. The Exercise Day is the first day on which the NASDAQ Stock Market is open for trading after the end of the Payroll Deduction Period. The board of directors anticipates that offerings under the 2014 ESPP will operate in a similar manner.
An employee will not be granted an option under the 2014 ESPP if the employee, immediately after the option is granted, owns stock having 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the company. No employee will be granted an option under the 2014 ESPP that permits the employee to accrue rights to purchase stock under all employee stock purchase plans of the company at a rate that exceeds $25,000 (or such other maximum as may be prescribed from time to time under the Code) of the fair market value of such stock (determined at the date of grant).
Transfer
An option granted under the 2014 ESPP may not be transferred except by will or the laws of descent and distribution and, during the lifetime of the employee to whom granted, may be exercised only for the benefit of the employee.
TEXAS INSTRUMENTS | 2014 PROXY STATEMENT •95 |
Authorized shares and adjustments
No more than 40,000,000 shares of TI common stock may be sold pursuant to the 2014 ESPP, subject to adjustments as described below.
If the Compensation Committee determines that an adjustment is appropriate by reason of any dividend or other distribution, recapitalization, stock split, or other similar corporate transaction or event (as more fully described in the 2014 ESPP under the heading “Adjustments”), it will adjust any or all of (1) the number and type of shares that may be made subject to options, (2) the number and type of shares subject to outstanding options, and (3) the grant, purchase or exercise price with respect to any option.
Either authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares may be made subject to options under the 2014 ESPP. Any shares not purchased prior to the termination of an option may be again subjected to an option under the 2014 ESPP.
Administration
The 2014 ESPP will be administered by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee will have full power and authority to construe, interpret and administer the 2014 ESPP. The Compensation Committee may delegate such power, authority and rights with respect to the administration of the 2014 ESPP (including, without limitation, the designation of subsidiaries whose employees may participate in offerings and the exclusion of employees from specified offerings, in each case to the extent permitted by Section 423 of the Code) as it deems appropriate to one or more members of the management of TI; provided, however, that any delegation to management will conform with the requirements of applicable law and stock exchange regulations.
Amendment, sub-plans and termination
The Compensation Committee may, at any time and from time to time, alter, amend, suspend or terminate the 2014 ESPP. The Compensation Committee may also recommend to the board revisions of the 2014 ESPP. However, unless the stockholders of TI have first approved thereof, (1) the total number of shares for which options may be exercised under the 2014 ESPP will not be increased or decreased, except as described above in “Authorized shares and adjustments,” and (2) no amendment may be made that allows an option price for offerings under the 2014 ESPP to be less than 85% of the fair market value of the common stock of TI on the date of grant of the options or, if lower, 85% of the fair market value of the common stock of TI on the date on which an option is exercised.
The Compensation Committee may also adopt and amend stock purchase sub-plans for employees of subsidiaries with such provisions as are appropriate to conform with local laws, practices and procedures. All such sub-plans will be subject to the limitations on the amount of stock that may be issued under the 2014 ESPP.
No offering may be made under the 2014 ESPP after April 17, 2024.
New plan benefits and participation
Each executive officer of the company qualifies for participation under the 2014 ESPP and may be eligible to annually purchase up to $25,000 worth of the company’s stock at a discount below the market price. However, participation in the 2014 ESPP is voluntary and dependent upon the executive officer’s election to participate, and the benefit of participating will depend on the terms of the offerings (if any) and fair market value of the stock on the Exercise Day. Accordingly, future benefits that would be received by the executive officers and other eligible employees under the proposed 2014 ESPP are not determinable at this time. The table below sets forth the shares purchased by the named executive officers and other employees under the 2005 ESPP during 2013.

U.S. federal tax consequences
The following summary is limited to the U.S. federal tax laws. It does not include the tax laws of any municipality, state or foreign country in which the participant resides.
The 2014 ESPP is intended to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code. However, TI does not undertake to maintain such status throughout the term of the 2014 ESPP.
In accordance with SEC rules, the following description of tax matters relating to the 2014 ESPP is provided. In general, a participant has no taxable event at the time of grant of an option or at the time of exercise of an option, but will realize taxable income at the time the participant sells the shares acquired under the 2014 ESPP.
If the participant observes certain holding period requirements, the participant’s gain on sale will generally be taxed at capital gains rates, except that in certain circumstances a portion of the participant’s gain will be treated as ordinary income. Those circumstances will generally occur if the exercise price of the shares is established as a percentage less than 100% of the fair market value of the shares at the beginning of the offering period, or if at the beginning of the period it is unknown what the exercise price will be, for example, if the exercise price can be determined only on the Exercise Day. The participant’s ordinary income will not be greater than the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares at the time of grant over the exercise price (or, if lower, the actual proceeds of sale over the actual purchase price of the shares). If the exercise price is a function of the value of the shares on the Exercise Day, the exercise price will be determined as if the option was exercised at the time of grant for purposes of calculating this limit. If the participant sells the shares only after satisfying the holding period requirements, the company will not be entitled to a deduction.
If the participant sells the shares before satisfying the holding period requirements, then the participant will realize ordinary income in an amount equal to the difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the stock on the Exercise Day. The company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction. The remainder of the proceeds of sale will be taxed at capital gains rates.
The board of directors recommends a vote “FOR” the TI Employees 2014 Stock Purchase Plan.
PROPOSAL TO REAPPROVE THE MATERIAL TERMS OF THE PERFORMANCE GOALS UNDER THE TEXAS INSTRUMENTS 2009 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
The board asks stockholders to reapproveapprove amending the material terms of performance goals that may apply to awards under the TexasInstruments 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2009 Plan”). Reapproval to provide for the following: an increase in the number of the material termsshares of the performance goals is sought with the intent of satisfying a requirementTI common stock (“Shares”) authorized for tax deductibility under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 162(m)”).
Section 162(m) imposes an annual limit of $1 million on the amount that a public company may deduct for federal income tax purposes for compensation it has paidissuance pursuant to its chief executive officer or to any of its other three most highly compensated executive officers (other than the chief financial officer). The tax deduction limit does not apply to “qualified performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m). Restricted stock units and certain other types of awards may be considered qualified performance-based compensation if, among other things, they are subject to performance goals, the material terms of which have been approved by stockholders not less than five years before the grant date of such restricted stock units or awards. For purposes of Section 162(m), the material terms of the performance goals under the 2009 Plan include: (1) the employees eligible to receive compensation; (2) a description(the “Share Reserve”) by 40,000,000 Shares; and an extension of the business criteria onperiod during which the performance goals are based; and (3) the maximum amount of compensation that couldawards may be paid to any employeegranted under the 2009 Plan if(the “Term”) to April 21, 2026. The board has approved these amendments to the 2009 Plan subject to approval of stockholders. For the reasons stated below, the board believes these amendments are in the best interest of the company and stockholders and urges that this proposal be approved. The 2009 Plan is intended to enhance the company’s ability to attract and retain qualified individuals as employees and encourage them to acquire a proprietary interest in the growth and performance goalsof the company. The 2009 Plan is our only active plan under which we may grant equity awards to employees. Non-employee directors are satisfied. not eligible for awards under the 2009 Plan. The 2009 Plan reflects responsible equity compensation practices. These include: | • | | No “evergreen” provision – The Share Reserve is not automatically replenished. |
| • | | No liberal share counting provision – Shares tendered by grantees to pay the exercise price of a stock option or stock appreciation right (“SAR”) or satisfy tax obligations are not added back into the Share Reserve. |
| • | | No automatic grants – The 2009 Plan does not provide for automatic grants to any individual. |
| • | | No discounted stock options or SARs – The exercise price of stock options and SARs shall be no lower than the fair market value of Shares on the date of grant (other than substitute awards if we assume or replace outstanding awards granted by a company that we acquire). |
| • | | No repricing of stock options or SARs – No repricing of stock options or SARs is permitted, except to adjust the exercise price due to a stock split, corporate restructuring or similar event. |
| • | | Double-trigger change-in-control terms – Awards are generally subject to double-trigger change-in-control terms, under which full vesting of the award would be triggered not by a change in control of the company, but rather by employment termination if it occurred within 24 months after such event. |
| • | | No tax gross-ups – The 2009 Plan does not provide for tax gross-ups to any individual, whether in connection with a change in control or otherwise. |
Stockholders approved the 2009 Plan including the material terms ofin April 2009 and reapproved in April 2014 the performance goals under the 2009 Plan, in April 2009. Because almost five years have passed since that approval, the board is submitting this proposal to stockholders for reapproval of the material terms of the performance goals set forthidentified in the 2009 Plan for purposes of Section 162(m).This proposal does not seek to amend or alter the performance goals or any other termscertain performance-based awards. Without taking account of the proposed increase in the Share Reserve, the remaining Share Reserve under the 2009 Plan. as of January 31, 2016, is 18,464,864 Shares. For more details on the Share Reserve, please see the first table on page 43. We consider the 2009 Plan to be a vital element of our employee compensation program and believe that the continued ability to grant awards at competitive levels is in the best interest of the company and stockholders. If stockholders do not approve thisthe proposal, the companyrequested increase in the Share Reserve and extension of the Term will stillbecome effective on the date of stockholder approval. We believe the Share Reserve will then be ablesufficient to enable us to make awards under the 2009 Plan but awards (other than stock optionsfor approximately the next three years, assuming historical grant and stock appreciation rights) willforfeiture levels and recent market prices of Shares. The Term is proposed to be subjectextended to April 21, 2026, to give us the tax deduction limit under Section 162(m) even if they have been granted subjectflexibility to the achievement of performance goals.

If stockholders do not approve the fair market value of TI’s stockproposed amendments, the 2009 Plan will remain in effect through April 16, 2019, and we may continue to make awards under the plan until then, to the extent Shares remain available for grant. We believe the current Share Reserve will be enough only for approximately the next one year on the grant date. assumptions described above. In that event, our flexibility to make equity awards at competitive levels may be severely limited.

The descriptionsummary below is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the 2009 Plan. TEXAS INSTRUMENTS | 2014 PROXY STATEMENT •97 |
Material terms of performance goals under the 2009 Plan
The 2009 Plan provides for the grant of the following types of awards: (1) stock options, (2) restricted stock and restricted stock units, (3) performance units and (4) other awards (including stock appreciation rights)SARs) valued in whole or in part by reference to or otherwise based on common stock of the company. The Compensation Committee of TI’s board of directors (the “Committee”) administers the 2009 Plan. The Committee consists exclusively of (1) independent directors within the meaning of the rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market and (2) outside directors as described in Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). The Committee has the sole discretion to grant awards to eligible grantees under the 2009 Plan and determine the terms, timing, transferability and method of exercise of awards, as applicable. Employees of the company and its subsidiaries and affiliates are eligible to receive awards under the 2009 Plan. The Compensation CommitteeAs of the company’s board of directors, which consists exclusively of “outside directors” within the meaning of Section 162(m), may grantJanuary 31, 2016, we have approximately 30,000 employees who are eligible to be considered for awards under the 2009 Plan, to eligible grantees in its discretion. We currently have approximately 32,000 employees, including 1410 executive officers. Substitute awards may be made in case of acquisitions and business combinations. While the plan2009 Plan also provides that awards may be granted to independent contractors, no award has been granted under the 2009 Plan to an independent contractor of the company or any subsidiary or affiliate, and none will be granted in the future under the 2009 Plan. Directors who are not employees of the company are not eligible to receive awards under the 2009 Plan.
The number of Shares currently authorized for issuance under the 2009 Plan is 75,000,000 Shares (which we are requesting stockholders to increase by 40,000,000 Shares in this proposal), plus Shares subject to any award made under a previous long-term incentive plan that are not issued due to cancellation or forfeiture of the award. The number of authorized Shares may be adjusted in the case of a dividend or other distribution, recapitalization, stock split, or other corporate event or transaction. Shares underlying awards that the company makes in assumption of, or in substitution for, awards previously granted by a company that the company acquires (“Substitute Awards”) do not count against the Shares authorized for issuance under the 2009 Plan. Except in the case of Substitute Awards, and except as a result of a corporate adjustment event described above, stock options, SARs and similar stock-based awards under the 2009 Plan with an exercise or a purchase price will not have an exercise or a purchase price (or equivalent) of less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock on the date the Committee grants the stock option or award. Determinations of fair market value under the 2009 Plan are made in accordance with methods or procedures established by the Committee. Under the 2009 Plan, no individual may receive stock options and SARs, considered together, for more than 4,000,000 Shares in any calendar year. In any calendar year, no individual may be granted awards under the 2009 Plan (other than stock options or SARs) intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) that exceed, in the aggregate, $5,000,000 or, if denominated in Shares, 4,000,000 Shares. | | | | | 44 | | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT | | |
Any award under the 2009 Plan may, but need not, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more performance goals. Awards will be made subject to one or more performance goals if the Compensation Committee determines that such awards are in the best interest of the company and its stockholders.
Awards (other than stock options and stock appreciation rights)SARs) intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) will be granted subject to performance goals based on one or more of the following business criteria as applied, in the Compensation Committee’s discretion, on an absolute basis or relative to other companies: cash flow; cycle time; earnings before income taxes; earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization; earnings per share; free cash flow; gross profit; gross profit margin; manufacturing process yield; market share; net income; net revenue per employee; operating profit,profit; return on assets; return on capital; return on common equity; return on invested capital; return on net assets; revenue growth; or total stockholder return.

New plan benefits We are not proposing any change to the types of benefits any individual may receive under the 2009 Plan. New plan benefits

Tax matters The following summary is limited to the U.S. federal tax laws. It does not include the tax laws of any municipality, state or foreign country in which the participant resides.
Stock options: Counsel for the company has advised that a participant will recognize no income under the Code upon the receipt of any stock option award. In the case of an incentive stock option, if a participant exercises the stock option during or within three months of employment and does not dispose of the sharesShares within two years of the date of grant or one year after the transfer of the sharesShares to the participant, the participant will be entitled for federal income tax purposes to treat any profit which may be recognized upon the disposition of the sharesShares as a long-term capital gain. In contrast, a participant who receives a stock option under the 2009 Plan that is not an incentive stock option or who does not comply with the conditions noted above will generally recognize ordinary income at the time of exercise in the amount of the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the stock on the date of exercise over the stock option price. If the participant is an employee, suchSuch ordinary income generally is subject to withholding of income and employment taxes. The company should be entitled to a deduction for federal income tax purposes equal to the amount of ordinary income, if any, recognized by a participant who (a) exercises a stock option that is not an incentive stock option, or (b) disposes of stock that was acquired pursuant to the exercise of an incentive stock option prior to the end of the required holding period described above, except to the extent such tax deduction is limited by applicable provisions of the Code. In the case of incentive stock options, any excess of the fair market value of the stock at the time of exercise over the stock option price would be an item of income for purposes of the participant’s alternative minimum tax.

Upon the settlement of a restricted stock unit award, participants will recognize ordinary income in the year of receipt in an amount equal to the fair market value of any sharesShares received.

Related person transactions The company has no reportable related person transactions. Because we believe that company transactions with directors and executive officers of TI or with persons related to TI directors and executive officers present a heightened risk of creating or appearing to create a conflict of interest, we have a written related person transaction policy that has been approved by the board of directors. The policy states that TI directors and executive officers should obtain the approvals specified below in connection with any related person transaction. The policy applies to transactions in which:
1. | | TI or any TI subsidiary is or will be a participant; |
2. | | The amount involved exceeds or is expected to exceed $100,000 in a fiscal year; and |
3. | | Any of the following (a “related person”) has or will have a direct or indirect interest: |
| | (a) | | A TI director or executive officer, or an Immediate Family Member of a director or executive officer; |
| | (b) | | A stockholder owning more than 5 percent of the common stock of TI or an Immediate Family Member of such stockholder, or, if the 5 percent stockholder is not a natural person, any person or entity designated in the Form 13G or 13D filed under the SEC rules and regulations by the 5 percent stockholder as having an ownership interest in TI stock (individually or collectively, a “5 percent holder”); or |
| | (c) | | An entity in which someone listed in (a) or (b) above has a 5 percent or greater ownership interest, by which someone listed in (a) or (b) is employed, or of which someone listed in (a) or (b) is a director, principal or partner. |
102 •2014 PROXY STATEMENT | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS |
For purposes of the policy, an “Immediate Family Member” is any child, stepchild, parent, stepparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, sister-in-law or any person (other than a tenant or employee) sharing the household of a TI director, executive officer or 5 percent holder.
The policy specifies that a related person transaction includes, but is not limited to, any financial transaction, arrangement or relationship (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness) or any series of similar transactions or arrangements.
| | | | | | | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT | | 49 |
The required approvals are as follows:
Arrangement involving: | | | Arrangement involving: | | Approval required by: | Executive officer who is also a member of the TI board, an Immediate Family Member of such person, or an entity in which any of the foregoing has a 5 percent or greater ownership interest | | G&SR Committee | | | | Chair of the G&SR Committee, chief compliance officer, any of his or her Immediate Family Members, or an entity in which any of the foregoing has a 5 percent or greater ownership interest | | G&SR Committee | | | | Any other director or executive officer, an Immediate Family Member of such person, or an entity in which any of the foregoing has a 5 percent or greater ownership interest | | Chief compliance officerCompliance Officer in consultation with the Chair of the G&SR Committee | | | | A 5 percent holder | | G&SR Committee |
No member of the G&SR Committee will participate in the consideration of a related person arrangement in which such member or any of his or her Immediate Family Members is the related person.
The approving body or persons will consider all of the relevant facts and circumstances available to them, including (if applicable) but not limited to: the benefits to the company of the arrangement; the impact on a director’s independence; the availability of other sources for comparable products or services; the terms of the arrangement; and the terms available to unrelated third parties or to employees generally. The primary consideration is whether the transaction between TI and the related person (a) was the result of undue influence from the related person or (b) could adversely influence or appear to adversely influence the judgment, decisions or actions of the director or executive officer in meeting TI responsibilities or create obligations to other organizations that may come in conflict with responsibilities to TI.
No related person arrangement will be approved unless it is determined to be in, or not inconsistent with, the best interests of the company and its stockholders, as the approving body or persons shall determine in good faith.
The chief compliance officer will provide periodic reports to the committee on related person transactions. Any related person transaction brought to the attention of the chief compliance officer or of which the chief compliance officer becomes aware that is not approved pursuant to the process set forth above shall be terminated as soon as practicable. During 2015, two family members of executive officers were employed by the company. The son of R. Gregory Delagi (Senior Vice President) was employed in our facilities organization, and the spouse of Cynthia Hoff Trochu (Senior Vice President and General Counsel) was employed in our finance organization until his retirement in August 2015. Neither Mr. Delagi nor Ms. Trochu was involved in any decisions regarding their family member’s employment at TI, and the compensation of both family members was consistent with that of similarly situated employees. These transactions have been reviewed and ratified in accordance with the company’s related person transactions policy described above. Compensation committee interlocks and insider participation During 2013,2015, Messrs. Carp and Sanchez and Mses. Cox, Patsley and Simmons and Messrs. Sanchez and SandersWhitman served on the Compensation Committee. No committee member (i) was an officer or employee of TI, (ii) was formerly an officer of TI or (iii) had any relationship requiring disclosure under the SEC’s rules governing disclosure of related person transactions (Item 404 of Regulation S-K). No executive officer of TI served as a director or member of the compensation committee of another entity, one of whose directors or executive officers served as a member of our board of directors or a member of the Compensation Committee. Cost of solicitation The solicitation is made on behalf of our board of directors. TI will pay the cost of soliciting these proxies. We will reimburse brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for reasonable expenses they incur in sending these proxy materials to you if you are a beneficial holder of our shares.
| | | | | 50 | | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT | | |
Without receiving additional compensation, officials and regular employees of TI may solicit proxies personally, by telephone, fax or e-mail, from some stockholders if proxies are not promptly received. We have also hired Georgeson Inc. to assist in the solicitation of proxies at a cost of $12,000 plus out-of-pocket expenses. TEXAS INSTRUMENTS | 2014 PROXY STATEMENT •103 |
Stockholder proposals for 20152017 If you wish to submit a proposal for possible inclusion in TI’s 20152017 proxy material, we must receive your notice, in accordance with the rules of the SEC, on or before November 5, 2014.9, 2016. Proposals are to be sent to: Texas Instruments Incorporated, 12500 TI Boulevard, MS 8658, Dallas, TX 75243, Attn: Secretary.
If you wish to submit a proposal at the 20152017 annual meeting (but not seek inclusion of the proposal in the company’s proxy material), we must receive your notice, in accordance with the company’s by-laws, on or before January 17, 2015. 21, 2017. All suggestions from stockholders concerning the company’s business are welcome and will be carefully considered by TI’s management. To ensure that your suggestions receive appropriate review, the G&SR Committee from time to time reviews correspondence from stockholders and management’s responses. Stockholders are thereby given access at the board level without having to resort to formal stockholder proposals. Generally, the board prefers you present your views in this manner rather than through the process of formal stockholder proposals. Please see page 618 for information on contacting the board. Benefit plan voting If you are a participant in the TI Contribution and 401(k) Savings Plan, or the TI 401(k) Savings Plan, you are a “named fiduciary” under the plans and are entitled to direct the voting of shares allocable to your accounts under these plans. The trustee administering your plan will vote your shares in accordance with your instructions. If you wish to instruct the trustee on the voting of shares held for your accounts, you should do so by April 14, 2014,18, 2016, in the manner described in the notice of annual meeting.
Additionally, participants under the plans are designated as “named fiduciaries” for the purpose of voting TI stock held under the plans for which no voting direction is received. TI shares held by the TI 401(k) savings plans for which no voting instructions are received by April 14, 2014,18, 2016, will be voted in the same proportions as the shares in the plans for which voting instructions have been received by that date unless otherwise required by law. Section 16(a) beneficial ownership reporting compliance Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act requires certain persons, including the company’s directors and executive officers, to file reports with the SEC regarding beneficial ownership of certain equity securities of the company. Due to administrative error, there was one late filing for Mr. Blinn with respect to his deferred compensation and one late filing for Mr. Ritchie with respect to a transfer of shares out of his 401(k) account and a separate sale of shares. The company believes that all other reports during 20132015 were timely filed by its directors and executive officers. Telephone and Internet voting Registered stockholders and benefit plan participants. Stockholders with shares registered directly with Computershare (TI’s transfer agent) and participants who beneficially own shares in a TI benefit plan may vote telephonically by calling (800) 690-6903 (within the U.S. and Canada only, toll-free) or via the Internet at www.proxyvote.com.
The telephone and Internet voting procedures are designed to authenticate stockholders’ identities, to allow stockholders to give their voting instructions and to confirm that stockholders’ instructions have been recorded properly.

Stockholders with shares registered in the name of a brokerage firm or bank. A number of brokerage firms and banks offer telephone and Internet voting options. These programs may differ from the program provided to registered stockholders and benefit plan participants.

It is the intention of the Company to have the Plan qualify as an “Employee Stock Purchase Plan” pursuant to Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Code”), but the Company does not undertake to maintain such status through the Plan term.

If for any reason any option under the Plan terminates in whole or in part, shares subject to such terminated option may be again subjected to an option under the Plan.
Adjustments
In the event that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of shares or other securities of TI, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase shares or other securities of TI, or other similar corporate transaction or event affects the shares such that an adjustment is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan, then the Committee shall equitably adjust any or all of (i) the number and type of shares which may be made the subject of options, (ii) the number and type of shares subject to outstanding options, and (iii) the grant, purchase or exercise price with respect to any option or, if deemed appropriate, make provision for a cash payment to the holder of an option. However, any adjustment that results in an increase in the aggregate number of shares that may be issued under the Plan (other than an increase merely reflecting a change in the number of outstanding shares, such as a stock dividend or stock split) will be considered the adoption of a new plan that would require stockholder approval, to the extent required by Section 423 of the Code and the regulations thereunder.
Terms and conditions of options
Each offering shall be subject to the following terms and conditions, and to such further terms and conditions as may be established by the Committee as described in the paragraph above entitled “Administration of Plan.” To the extent required by Section 423 of the Code and the regulations thereunder, all Employees granted options in an offering shall have equal rights and privileges.
(1) | | An option price per share for each offering shall be determined by the Committee on or prior to the date of grant of the option which shall in no instance be less than (a) 85% of the fair market value of TI common stock on the date the option is granted, or (b) 85% of the fair market value of TI common stock on the date the option is exercised, whichever is lower. The fair market value on the date on which an option is granted or exercised shall be determined by such methods or procedures as shall be established by the Committee prior to or on the date of grant of the option. |

Alternatively, or in combination with setting a maximum number of shares, the Committee may choose to determine a maximum dollar amount that could be used to purchase shares for each offering (but not to exceed the amount specified in Section 423(b) of the Code). Each Employee may elect to participate for less than the maximum number of shares or dollar amount specified by the Committee. The Committee shall determine prior to or on the date of grant of the options the consequences of an Employee’s election to participate for less than the maximum and whether the Employee shall be entitled to purchase fractional shares. | (4) | | The term of each offering shall consist of the following three periods: | | | (a) | | an Enrollment Period during which each eligible Employee shall determine whether or not and to what extent to participate by authorizing payroll deductions; | | | (b)TEXAS INSTRUMENTS • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT | | a Payroll Deduction Period during which (subject to paragraph (15) below) payroll deductions shall be made and credited to each Employee’s payroll deduction account; and | | | (c) | | an Exercise Day on which options of participating Employees will be automatically exercised in full. | | | The beginning and ending dates of each Enrollment Period and Payroll Deduction Period and the date of each Exercise Day shall be determined by the Committee. | (5) | | Each eligible Employee who desires to participate in an offering shall elect to do so by completing and delivering by the end of the Enrollment Period to a person or firm designated by the Treasurer of TI a payroll deduction authorization in the form (including without limitation, telephonic and electronic transmission, utilization of voice response systems and computer entry) prescribed by the Committee authorizing payroll deductions during the Payroll Deduction Period. Where local law prohibits payroll deductions, paragraph (15) shall apply. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, such election and payroll deduction authorization shall constitute an election and payroll deduction authorization to participate in the current offering, and the Employee may elect to be automatically re-enrolled in subsequent offerings under the Plan. | (6) | | TI shall maintain or arrange for the maintenance of payroll deduction accounts for all participating Employees (or alternative payment method pursuant to paragraph (15)). | (7) | | On the Exercise Day, the options of each participating Employee to which such Exercise Day relates shall be automatically exercised in full without the need for the participating Employee to take any action. | (8) | | Upon exercise of an option, the shares shall be paid for in full by transfer of the purchase price from the Employee’s payroll deduction account, if any, to the account of TI, and any balance in the Employee’s payroll deduction account shall be paid to the Employee in cash. | (9) | | The Committee may allow participating Employees to cancel or reduce, or both, their payroll deduction authorizations. The Committee shall determine the consequences of such cancellations or reductions on the participating Employees’ enrollment in subsequent offerings. | (10) | | The Committee shall determine on or prior to the date of grant of options the consequences of the termination of employment of a participating Employee for any reason, including death, during the term of an offering. | (11) | | An Employee will have none of the rights and privileges of a stockholder of TI with respect to the shares of common stock subject to an option under the Plan until such shares of common stock have been transferred or issued to the Employee or to a designated broker for the Employee’s account on the books of TI. | (12) | | An option granted under the Plan may not be transferred except by will or the laws of descent and distribution and, during the lifetime of the Employee to whom granted, may be exercised only by the Employee. | (13) | | Each option granted shall be evidenced by an instrument in such written or electronic form as the Committee shall approve which shall be dated the date of grant and shall comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. | (14) | | No Employee shall be granted an option hereunder if such Employee, immediately after the option is granted, owns stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of TI or a related corporation as defined in Treas. Reg. Section 1.421-1(i) (“Related Corporation”), computed in accordance with Section 423(b)(3) of the Code. No Employee shall be granted an option that permits the Employee’s rights to purchase common stock under all employee stock purchase plans of TI or a Related Corporation to accrue at a rate which exceeds $25,000 (or such other maximum as may be prescribed from time to time by the Code) of fair market value of such common stock (determined at the date of grant) for each calendar year in which such option is outstanding at any time in accordance with the provisions of Section 423(b)(8) of the Code. | (15) | | If local law prohibits payroll deductions for some or all Employees who are eligible for an offering, all Employees who are eligible for the offering in that location may authorize their employer to place the funds that otherwise would be subject to payroll deductions into bank accounts or in accounts with a trustee or other custodian in the names of the Employees or in the name of the employer or pay the funds by such other method authorized by the Committee. In such event, all of the provisions of the Plan applicable to payroll deductions shall apply to such accounts.A-1 |

| (b) | Awards may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone or in addition to or in tandem with any other Award or any award granted under any other plan of the Company. Awards granted in addition to or in tandem with other Awards, or in addition to or in tandem with awards granted under any other plan of the Company, may be granted either at the same time as or at a different time from the grant of such other Awards or awards. |
| (c) | Subject to the terms of the Plan, payments or transfers to be made by the Company upon the grant, exercise or settlement of an Award may be made in such form or forms as the Committee shall determine including, without limitation, cash, Shares, other securities, other Awards, or other property, or any combination thereof, and may be made in a single payment or transfer, in installments, or on a deferred basis, in each case in accordance with Section 11(g) and rules and procedures established by the Committee. Such rules and procedures may include, without limitation, provisions for the payment or crediting of reasonable interest on installment or deferred payments or, with respect only to Awards other than Options and SARs, the grant or crediting of dividend equivalents in respect of installment or deferred payments. |
| (d) | Unless the Committee shall otherwise determine, (i) no Award, and no right under any such Award, shall be assignable, alienable, saleable or transferable by a Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution;provided,however, that, if so determined by the Committee, a Participant may, in the manner established by the Committee, designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries to exercise the rights of the Participant, and to receive any property distributable, with respect to any Award upon the death of the Participant; (ii) each Award, and each right under any Award, shall be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant or, if permissible under applicable law, by the Participant’s guardian or legal representative; and (iii) no Award, and no right under any such Award, may be pledged, alienated, attached, or otherwise encumbered, and any purported pledge, alienation, attachment or encumbrance thereof shall be void and unenforceable against the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any Award which has been fully exercised, earned or paid, as the case may be, and shall not preclude forfeiture of an Award in accordance with the terms thereof. |
| (e) | All certificates for Shares or other securities delivered under the Plan pursuant to any Award or the exercise thereof shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan or the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which such Shares or other securities are then listed, and any applicable Federal, state or foreign securities laws, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions. |
| (f) | Every Award (other than an Option or SAR) to a member of the Executive Group that the Committee intends to constitute “qualified performance-based compensation” for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code shall include a pre-established formula, such that payment, retention or vesting of the Award is subject to the achievement during a performance period or periods, as determined by the Committee, of a level or levels, on an absolute basis or relative to |
| | | | | B-6 | | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT | | |
| other companies, as determined by the Committee, of one or more of the following performance measures: (i) Cash Flow, (ii) Cycle Time, (iii) Earnings Before Income Taxes, (iv) Earnings Per Share, (v) EBITDA, (vi) Free Cash Flow, (vii) Gross Profit, (viii) Gross Profit Margin, (ix) Manufacturing Process Yield, (x) Market Share, (xi) net income, (xii) Net Revenue Per Employee, (xiii) Operating Profit, (xiv) Return on Assets, (xv) Return on Capital, (xvi) Return on Common Equity, (xvii) Return on Invested Capital, (xviii) Return on Net Assets, (xix) Revenue Growth or (xx) Total Stockholder Return. For any Award subject to any such pre-established formula, no more than $5,000,000 can be paid in satisfaction of such Award to any Participant,provided,however, that if the performance formula relating to such Award is expressed in Shares, the maximum limit shall be 4,000,000 Shares in lieu of such dollar limit. |
| (g) | Unless the Committee expressly determines otherwise in the Award Agreement, any Award of an Option, SAR, or Restricted Stock is intended to qualify as a stock right exempt under Section 409A of the Code, and the terms of the Award Agreement and any related rules and procedures adopted by the Committee shall reflect such intention. Unless the Committee expressly determines otherwise in the Award Agreement, with respect to any other Award that would constitute deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the Award Agreement shall set forth the time and form of payment and the election rights, if any, of the holder in a manner that is intended to avoid the imposition of additional taxes and penalties under Section 409A. The Company makes no representation or covenant that any Award granted under the Plan will comply with Section 409A. |
| (h) | The Committee shall not have the authority to provide in any Award granted hereunder for the automatic award of an Option upon the exercise or settlement of such Award. | | |
B-6 •2014 PROXY STATEMENT | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS |
| (i) | This Section 11(i) applies with respect to Awards granted on or after January 1, 2010. If a Participant experiences an Involuntary Termination within 24 months after a Change in Control, then unless specifically provided to the contrary in any Award Agreement or the Committee otherwise determines under authority granted elsewhere in the Plan, |
| | (1) | Awards held by the Participant shall become fully vested and exercisable, and any restrictions applicable to the Awards shall lapse, upon the effective date of such termination; |
| | (2) | to the extent permitted without additional tax or penalty by Section 409A of the Code, the shares underlying Restricted Stock Units, Performance Units or other Stock-Based Awards held by the Participant will be issued on, or as soon as practicable (but no later than 60 days) after, the Participant’s Involuntary Termination, provided, however, that if the Participant is a Specified Employee upon such termination, the shares will be issued on, or as soon as practicable (but no more than 10 days) after, the first day of the seventh month following such Involuntary Termination; and |
| | (3) | to the extent that the issuance of shares as specified in (2) above is not permitted without additional tax or penalty by Section 409A, the Award will continue to full term and the shares will be issued at the issuance date specified in the Award Agreement as if the Participant were still an employee of TI on such date. |
SECTION 12.Amendment and Termination. | (a) | Unless otherwise expressly provided in an Award Agreement or in the Plan, the Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time;provided,however, that no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination shall be made without (i) stockholder approval if such approval is necessary to comply with the listing requirements of The NASDAQ Stock Market or (ii) the consent of the affected Participants, if such action would adversely affect the rights of such Participants under any outstanding Award. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Committee may amend the Plan in such manner as may be necessary to enable the Plan to achieve its stated purposes in any jurisdiction outside the United States in a tax-efficient manner and in compliance with local rules and regulations. |
| (b) | The Committee may waive any conditions or rights under, or amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate, any Award theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively, without the consent of any relevant Participant or holder or beneficiary of an Award, provided,however, that (i) no such action shall impair the rights of any affected Participant or holder or beneficiary under any Award theretofore granted under the Plan; (ii) except as provided in Section 5(e), no such action shall reduce the exercise price of any Option or SAR established at the time of grant thereof; and (iii) except in connection with a corporate transaction involving the Company (including an event described in Section 5(e)), an Option or SAR may not be terminated in exchange for (x) a cash amount greater than the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the underlying Shares on the date of cancellation over the exercise price times the number of Shares outstanding under the Award (the “Award Value”), (y) another Option or SAR with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the cancelled Option or SAR, or (z) any other type of Award. For avoidance of doubt, in connection with a corporate transaction involving the Company (including an event described in Section 5(e)), any Award may be terminated in exchange for a cash payment, and such payment is not required to exceed the Award Value. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may terminate Awards granted in any jurisdiction outside the United States prior to their expiration date for consideration determined by the Committee when, in the Committee’s judgment, |
| | | | | | | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT | | B-7 |
| the administrative burden of continuing Awards in such locality outweighs the benefit to the Company. Any such action taken with respect to an Award intended to be a stock right exempt under Section 409A of the Code shall be consistent with the requirements for exemption under Section 409A, and any such action taken with respect to an Award that constitutes deferred compensation under Section 409A shall be in compliance with the requirements of Section 409A. The Committee also may modify any outstanding Awards to comply with Section 409A without consent from Participants. The Company makes no representation or covenant that any action taken pursuant to this Section 12(b) will comply with Section 409A. |
| (c) | The Committee shall be authorized to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards in recognition of changes in applicable laws, regulations or accounting principles, whenever the Committee determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan. Any such action taken with respect to an Award intended to be a stock right exempt under Section 409A of the Code shall be consistent with the requirements for exemption under Section 409A, and any such action taken with respect to an Award that constitutes deferred compensation under Section 409A shall be in compliance with the requirements of Section 409A. However, the Company makes no representation or covenants that Awards will comply with Section 409A. |
| (d) | The Committee may correct any defect, supply any omission, or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Award in the manner and to the extent it shall deem desirable to carry the Plan into effect. | | |
TEXAS INSTRUMENTS | 2014 PROXY STATEMENT •B-7 |
SECTION 13.Miscellaneous. | (a) | No employee, independent contractor, Participant or other person shall have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of employees, independent contractors, Participants, or holders or beneficiaries of Awards, either collectively or individually, under the Plan. The terms and conditions of Awards need not be the same with respect to each recipient. |
| (b) | The Committee may delegate to another committee of the Board, one or more officers or managers of the Company, or a committee of such officers or managers, the authority, subject to such terms and limitations as the Committee shall determine, to grant Awards to, or to cancel, modify, waive rights with respect to, alter, discontinue, suspend or terminate Awards held by, employees who are not officers or directors of the Company for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended;provided,however, that any such delegation to management shall conform with the requirements of the General Corporation Law of Delaware, as in effect from time to time. |
| (c) | The Company shall be authorized to withhold from any Award granted or any payment due or transfer made under any Award or under the Plan or from any compensation or other amount owing to a Participant the amount (in cash, Shares, other securities, other Awards, or other property) of withholding taxes (including income tax, social insurance contributions, payment on account and other taxes) due in respect of an Award, its exercise, or any payment or transfer of Shares, cash or property under such Award or under the Plan and to take such other action (including, without limitation, providing for elective payment of such amounts in cash, Shares, other securities, other Awards or other property by the Participant) as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations of the Company for the payment of such taxes. |
| (d) | Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company from adopting or continuing in effect other or additional compensation arrangements, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases. |
| (e) | The grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained in the employ or service of the Company or any Affiliate. Further, the Company or the applicable Affiliate may at any time dismiss a Participant from employment or terminate the services of an independent contractor, free from any liability, or any claim under the Plan, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or in any Award Agreement or in any other agreement binding the parties. |
| (f) | If any provision of the Plan or any Award is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any person or Award, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Award, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or Award, and the remainder of the Plan and any such Award shall remain in full force and effect. |
| (g) | Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and a Participant or any other person. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company pursuant to an Award, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company. |
| | | | | B-8 | | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS • 2016 PROXY STATEMENT | | |
| (h) | No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award, and the Committee shall determine whether cash, other securities or other property shall be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional Shares, or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be canceled, terminated or otherwise eliminated. |

APPENDIX
NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS
This proxy statement refers to (1) revenue excluding legacy wireless products (baseband products, and OMAP applications processors and connectivity products sold into smartphone and consumer tablet applications) and (2) ratios based on free cash flow. These are financial measures that were not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (non-GAAP measures). Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure calculated by subtracting Capital expenditures from the most directly comparable GAAP measure, Cash flows from operating activities (also referred to as Cash flow from operations). We believe revenue excluding legacy wireless products provides insight into our underlying business results. We believe free cash flow and these ratios based on it provide insight into our liquidity, our cash-generating capability and the amount of cash potentially available to return to investors, as well as insight into our financial performance. These non-GAAP measures are supplemental to the comparable GAAP measures and are reconciled in the tables below to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.
