DALLAS (April 5, 2005) -- Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (NYSE: TXN)
announced that 30 businesses received the company's 2004 Supplier Excellence
Award. These recipients are a select few chosen from TI's large worldwide
supplier base as a result of their outstanding performance and continuous
improvement in supplying materials, equipment and services to Texas Instruments.
"TI’s
global business requires excellence from its supply chain around the world
and the Supplier Excellence Awards recognizes only those suppliers who
meet a very high-standard," said Rob Simpson, Vice President of Worldwide
Procurement and Logistics. "These companies contribute greatly to
the success of TI and our customers and we thank them for their commitment."

businesses that had provided exemplary service. The awards are a key vehicle

technology, responsiveness, assurance of supply and quality.
