</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Skyworks Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the &#147;<U>Company</U>&#148;) is filing this
Current Report on Form 8-K for the purpose of updating the description of the Company&#146;s capital
stock in connection with the anticipated filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-4 in connection with the Company&#146;s pending acquisition of Advanced Analogic Technologies Incorporated. The description of the capital stock of the Company set forth below is only a summary and is
not intended to be complete. For a complete description, please read the Company&#146;s Restated
Certificate of Incorporation (as amended, the &#147;<U>Certificate of Incorporation&#148;)</U> and the
Company&#146;s Second Amended and Restated By-laws (as amended, the &#147;<U>By-laws</U>&#148;) and the
amendments thereto, which have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Authorized Capital Stock</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company is authorized to issue 550,000,000 shares of all classes of stock, of which
525,000,000 shares are designated common stock, $0.25 par value per share (&#147;<U>Common Stock</U>&#148;),
and 25,000,000 are designated preferred stock, no par value per share (&#147;<u>Preferred Stock</u>&#148;).
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Common Stock</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote of the
stockholders of the Company and is equal to each other share of Common Stock with respect to
voting, liquidation and dividend rights. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends,
if any, as may be declared by the Company&#146;s board of directors (the &#147;<U>Board</U>&#148;) from time to
time out of assets or funds of the Company that are legally available, payable in cash or
otherwise, and to receive net assets in liquidation after payment of all amounts due to creditors
and any preferential amounts due to holders of Preferred Stock. Holders of Common Stock have no
conversion rights and are not entitled to any preemptive or subscription rights. Holders of Common
Stock are not subject to redemption or any further calls or assessments and the Common Stock does
not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors. Except as may be provided in a
Preferred Stock designation, the holders of Common Stock have the exclusive right to vote for the
election of directors and for all other purposes.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Preferred Stock</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, and shares of each
series shall have such rights and preferences as shall be fixed by the Board. In designating any
series of Preferred Stock, the Board has authority, without further action by the holders of Common
Stock, to fix the (i)&nbsp;designation of the series, (ii)&nbsp;number of shares of the series, (iii)
dividend rate (including whether such dividends shall be cumulative or non-cumulative and the dates
on which such dividends shall be paid), (iv)&nbsp;voting rights, if any, subject to certain limitations,
(v)&nbsp;conversion rights, (vi)&nbsp;rights and terms of redemption (including any sinking fund provisions),
(vii)&nbsp;the amounts payable on shares in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Company and (viii)&nbsp;restrictions on the issuance of shares of the
same series or of any other class or series. The issuance of Preferred Stock by the Company could
adversely affect the voting power of holders of Common Stock and the likelihood that such holders
will receive dividend payments and/or payments upon liquidation and could have the effect of
delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company. The number of authorized
shares of Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased by the affirmative vote of the holders of a
majority of the shares of all classes of stock of the Company entitled to vote for the election of
directors (such classes of stock together, the &#147;<u>Voting Stock</u>&#148;), voting as one class, without a vote
of the holders of Preferred Stock, or of any series thereof, unless a vote of any such holders is
required pursuant to any Preferred Stock designation.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Classification of the Board of Directors</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#146;s directors are not divided into classes. All directors are elected annually by
stockholders of the Company at the Company&#146;s annual meeting.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#146;s Certificate of Incorporation provide that the Company&#146;s directors will have no
personal liability to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages arising from a breach of
fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i)&nbsp;for breach of the directors&#146; duty of loyalty
to the company or its stockholders, (ii)&nbsp;for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii)&nbsp;under Section&nbsp;174 of the DGCL or (iv)
for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. This provision in
the Certificate of Incorporation does not eliminate Company directors&#146; fiduciary duties of
care. This provision does not affect a director&#146;s responsibilities under any other laws, such as
the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#146;s Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws further provide that the Company shall
indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened,
pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation), by reason of the fact
that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the company or any of its
majority-owned subsidiaries or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another company or enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys&#146;
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with such action, suit or
proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be
in or not opposed to the best interests of the company, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Provisions contained in the Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws may be deemed to have an
anti-takeover effect and may deter or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt, including
attempts that may result in a premium being paid over the market price for the shares held by the
Company&#146;s stockholders.

unless the amendment (or adoption) is approved by the holders of at least eighty percent (80%) of

that govern transactions with Related Person, as defined below, require the affirmative vote of the
holders of ninety percent (90%) of the Company&#146;s Voting Stock.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#146;s Certificate of Incorporation further provides that the affirmative vote of the
