Letter from our CEO
 TI has undergone many transformations in our 80-year history, but one thing that never has changed is our commitment to stellar citizenship. At TI, we believe that how we conduct our business is just as important as the next technology breakthrough, so we invest deeply in our communities through leadership, partnerships, philanthropy and volunteerism. In this report, we want to share with you what we've done in our neighborhoods, in our business operations and for our employees.
Here are just a few of highlights:
- We opened solar and LED lighting laboratories to find new ways of using semiconductors to reduce the world's energy consumption;
- We prevented 22,000 metric tons of CO2 from entering the atmosphere through new energy efficiency projects, helping reduce our carbon footprint;
- We reduced health care costs for our employees through a personalized health management program and maintained consistent benefits;
- We started operations in two new LEED-certified facilities – one in the U.S. and one in the Philippines;
- We contributed nearly $19 million to support community, cultural and education initiatives; and
- We funded university programs to increase the number of math and science teachers.
We take pride in investing in technology and community programs that help to make the world smarter, healthier, safer, and greener, and even a little more fun. We have more under way in 2010, and you can count on us to stay focused on innovating and operating responsibly.
We thank you for reading about what we've done, and invite your feedback on our report.
Rich Templeton
Chairman, president and chief executive officer
