Rambus2009 Annual Report and Proxy Statement
TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS:
One of the desires every human being has is to be appreciated. That is why, for the last 19 years, I have ended my annual
report letter by thanking our shareholders, customers and employees. Considering these challenging economic times, I am
moving this appreciation to the top. I know that I speak for each member of our board of directors and our management
team, when I say we appreciate the fact that as an investor you have chosen to invest in Microchip, as a customer you have
chosen to do business with Microchip, and as an employee you have decided to join and remain with the Microchip team. I
want to assure you that your support is not taken for granted.
Fiscal year 2009 was the most tumultuous year we have seen in Microchip’s history. The first half of fiscal 2009 was
excellent, with Microchip achieving record sales and profits in the second fiscal quarter. Then came the global financial
crisis, and the third and fourth fiscal quarters saw significant revenue and gross margin reductions. We ended fiscal 2009
with net sales of $903.3 million, down 12.8% from fiscal 2008. Despite fiscal 2009 being a very difficult year, Microchip
had numerous accomplishments, including:
(cid:120) We were one of the few semiconductor companies that remained profitable, even at the bottom of the cycle. In fiscal
2009, our net income was $248.8 million, which was 27.5% of sales.
(cid:120) Microchip is the only major semiconductor company that has avoided a layoff for more than five years, reaffirming our
core value that “employees are our greatest strength” in the face of the global downturn, and positioning Microchip for
strong growth when the economy recovers. Maintaining our employee base assists our customers as they bring new
applications to market, and helps enable our customers to introduce new products to achieve incremental market
penetration. The shared sacrifices of our employees including salary reductions, time off without pay, and suspension of
bonuses, exemplify the spirit that has made Microchip such a strong force in the marketplace over the last 19 years.
(cid:120)
Based on Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) data, we gained market share in all of our target markets -- 8-bit and
16-bit microcontrollers, and analog.
(cid:120) Microchip achieved a record quarterly dividend of 33.9 cents per share and then maintained that dividend through the
bottom of the cycle. Many large S&P 500 companies have cut their dividends in the face of the economic crisis.
(cid:120) We introduced approximately 125 microcontrollers, analog products and memory products.
(cid:120) Microchip acquired three small companies as part of our “Elbow Out” strategy. Specifically, we acquired Hampshire
Company (resistive and capacitive touch screens) to complement our mTouch™ capacitive and inductive touch-sensing
portfolio, HI-TECH Software (C-Compliers) to augment our own compiler offerings, and R&E International
(semiconductors for security and life-safety applications) to extend our strong market position in these segments.
(cid:120) We introduced the much coveted PIC32 family to production. During fiscal 2009, 18 PIC32 products were released to
production, and the new family has already received a total of eight industry awards for product excellence.
(cid:120) Microchip won the EE Times ACE Award for Company of the Year and the EDN Innovation Award for our 32-bit
PIC32 microcontroller family, among other honors for business leadership and product innovation.
(cid:120) Microchip shipped 136,531 development systems, a 16.9% increase over the previous fiscal year.
(cid:120) We introduced the world’s lowest power microcontrollers, with nanoWatt XLP™ Technology, to enable the latest
battery-operated and green applications.
As we begin fiscal year 2010, the global economic challenges are still with us. However, we are seeing the early signs of a
recovery shaping up.
I again express my sincere appreciation to our customers, shareholders and employees for your support during these difficult
times, and I am confident that we are well positioned for growth as we begin to move into a period of economic recovery.

PROXY STATEMENT
You are cordially invited to attend our annual meeting on Friday, August 14, 2009, beginning at 9:00 a.m., Mountain
Standard Time. The annual meeting will be held at our Chandler facility located at 2355 West Chandler Boulevard, Chandler,
Arizona 85224-6199.
We are providing these proxy materials in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of
Microchip Technology Incorporated (“Microchip”) of proxies to be voted at Microchip’s 2009 annual meeting of stockholders
and at any adjournment(s) thereof.
Our fiscal year begins on April 1 and ends on March 31. References in this proxy statement to fiscal 2009 refer to the
12-month period from April 1, 2008 through March 31, 2009, and references to fiscal 2008 refer to the 12-month period from
April 1, 2007 through March 31, 2008.
We anticipate first mailing this proxy statement and accompanying form of proxy on July 10, 2009 to holders of
Microchip’s common stock on June 18, 2009, the Record Date for the annual meeting.
PROXIES AND VOTING PROCEDURES
YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT. Because many stockholders cannot attend the annual meeting in person, it is
necessary that a large number of stockholders be represented by proxy. Stockholders may have a choice of voting over the
Internet, by using a toll-free telephone number or by completing a proxy card and mailing it in the postage-paid envelope
provided. Please refer to your proxy card or the information forwarded by your bank, broker or other holder of record to
see which options are available to you. Under Delaware law, stockholders may submit proxies electronically. Please be aware
that if you vote over the Internet, you may incur costs such as telephone and Internet access charges for which you will be
responsible.
You can revoke your proxy at any time before it is exercised by timely delivery of a properly executed, later-dated
proxy (including an Internet or telephone vote if these options are available to you) or by voting by ballot at the annual meeting.
The method by which you vote will in no way limit your right to vote at the annual meeting if you later decide to
attend in person. If your shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or other holder of record, you must obtain a proxy,
executed in your favor, from the holder of record, to be able to vote at the annual meeting.
All shares entitled to vote and represented by properly completed proxies received prior to the annual meeting and not
revoked will be voted at the annual meeting in accordance with the instructions on such proxies. IF YOU DO NOT
INDICATE HOW YOUR SHARES SHOULD BE VOTED ON A MATTER, THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY
YOUR PROPERLY COMPLETED PROXY WILL BE VOTED AS OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS.
If any other matters are properly presented at the annual meeting for consideration, including, among other things,
consideration of a motion to adjourn the annual meeting to another time or place, the persons named as proxies and acting
thereunder will have discretion to vote on those matters according to their best judgment to the same extent as the person
delivering the proxy would be entitled to vote. At the date this proxy statement went to press, we did not anticipate that any
other matters would be raised at the annual meeting.
Stockholders Entitled to Vote
Stockholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date, June 18, 2009, are entitled to notice of and to vote
at the annual meeting. Each share is entitled to one vote on each of the five director nominees and one vote on each other
matter properly brought before the annual meeting. On the Record Date, there were 182,929,088 shares of our common stock
issued and outstanding.
In accordance with Delaware law, a list of stockholders entitled to vote at the annual meeting will be available at the
annual meeting on August 14, 2009, and for 10 days prior to the annual meeting at 2355 West Chandler Boulevard, Chandler,
Arizona, between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Mountain Standard Time.
Required Vote
Quorum, Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes
The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote at the annual meeting is
necessary to constitute a quorum at the annual meeting. Abstentions and broker “non-votes” are counted as present and entitled
to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. A broker “non-vote” occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial
owner (i.e., in “street name”) does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting
power with respect to that item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. Under the rules of the New York
Stock Exchange (NYSE), which apply to NYSE member brokers trading in non-NYSE stock, brokers have discretionary
authority to vote shares on certain routine matters if customer instructions are not provided. Proposal One and Proposal Three
to be considered at the annual meeting may be treated as routine matters. Consequently, if you do not return a proxy card, your
broker may have discretion to vote your shares on such matters.
Election of Directors (Proposal One)
A plurality of the votes duly cast is required for the election of directors (i.e., the five nominees receiving the greatest
number of votes will be elected). Abstentions and broker “non-votes” will not affect the election of directors.
Amendment and Restatement of 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (Proposal Two)
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock present in person or represented by
proxy and entitled to vote at the annual meeting is required to adopt the amendment and restatement of our 2004 Equity
Incentive Plan described in Proposal Two. An abstention will have the same effect as voting against this proposal. Broker
“non-votes” are not counted for purposes of approving the amendment and restatement of our 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, and
thus will not affect the outcome of the voting on such proposal.
Ratification of Accounting Firm (Proposal Three)
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock present in person or represented by
proxy and entitled to vote at the annual meeting is required for ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the
independent registered public accounting firm of Microchip for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2010. An abstention will have
the same effect as voting against this proposal. Broker “non-votes” are not counted for purposes of approving the ratification of
our accounting firm, and thus will not affect the outcome of the voting on this proposal.
Electronic Access to Proxy Statement and Annual Report
This proxy statement and our fiscal 2009 Annual Report are available at www.microchip.com/annual_reports.
We will post our future proxy statements and annual reports on Form 10-K on our website as soon as reasonably
practicable after they are electronically filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All such filings on our website are
available free of charge. The information on our website is not incorporated into this proxy statement. Our Internet address is

Cost of Proxy Solicitation
Microchip will pay its costs of soliciting proxies. Proxies may be solicited on behalf of Microchip by its directors,
officers or employees in person or by telephone, facsimile or other electronic means. We may also reimburse brokerage firms
and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their expenses incurred in sending proxies and proxy materials to beneficial
owners of Microchip common stock.
Meetings of the Board of Directors
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Our Board of Directors met seven times in fiscal 2009. During fiscal 2009, each of Mr. Day, Mr. Hugo-Martinez, Mr.
Meyercord and Mr. Sanghi attended 100% of the meetings of the Board of Directors, and Mr. Chapman attended 6 of the 7
meetings of the Board of Directors. Each director attended 100% of the meetings of the committees on which such director
served. During fiscal 2003, the Board of Directors implemented the practice of meeting in executive session on a periodic
basis without management or management directors (i.e., Mr. Sanghi) present, and continued this practice through fiscal 2009.
The Board of Directors has determined that each of Mr. Chapman, Mr. Day, Mr. Hugo-Martinez and Mr. Meyercord is an
independent director as defined by applicable SEC rules and NASDAQ listing standards.
Communications from Stockholders
Stockholders may communicate with the Board of Directors or individual members of the Board of Directors,
provided that all such communication is submitted in writing to the attention of the Secretary at Microchip Technology
Incorporated, 2355 West Chandler Boulevard, Chandler, Arizona 85224-6199, who will then forward such communication to
the appropriate director or directors.
Committees of the Board of Directors
The following table lists our three Board committees, the directors who served on them and the number of committee

Audit Committee
The responsibilities of our Audit Committee are to appoint, compensate, retain and oversee Microchip’s independent
registered public accounting firm, oversee the accounting and financial reporting processes of Microchip and audits of its
financial statements, and provide the Board of Directors with the results of such monitoring. These responsibilities are further
described in the committee charter. A copy of the Audit Committee Charter, as last amended on May 13, 2007, is available at
the Corporate/Investors section under Mission Statement/Corporate Governance on www.microchip.com.

Our Board of Directors has determined that all members of the Audit Committee are independent directors as defined
by applicable SEC rules and NASDAQ listing standards. The Board of Directors has also determined that each of
Mr. Chapman, Mr. Hugo-Martinez and Mr. Meyercord meet the requirements for being an “audit committee financial expert”
as defined by applicable SEC rules.
In fiscal 2005, our Audit Committee adopted a policy with respect to (i) the receipt, retention and treatment of
complaints received by us regarding questionable accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters; (ii) the
confidential, anonymous submission by our employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting, internal accounting
controls or auditing matters; and (iii) the prohibition of harassment, discrimination or retaliation arising from submitting
concerns regarding questionable accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters or participating in an investigation
regarding questionable accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters. This policy, called “Legal Compliance,”
was created in accordance with applicable SEC rules and NASDAQ listing requirements. A copy of this policy is available at
the Corporate/Investors section under Mission Statement/Corporate Governance on www.microchip.com.
Compensation Committee
Our Compensation Committee has oversight responsibility for the compensation and benefit programs for our
executive officers and other employees, and for administering our equity incentive and employee stock purchase plans adopted
by our Board of Directors. The responsibilities of our Compensation Committee are further described in the committee charter
as adopted on January 29, 2007. A copy of the Compensation Committee Charter is available at the Corporate/Investors
section under Mission Statement/Corporate Governance on www.microchip.com.
The Board of Directors has determined that the members of our Compensation Committee are independent directors
as defined by applicable SEC rules and NASDAQ listing standards. For more information on our Compensation Committee,
please turn to the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” at page 18.
Nominating and Governance Committee
Our Nominating and Governance Committee has the responsibility of ensuring that our Board is properly constituted
to be able to meet its fiduciary obligations to our stockholders. In so doing, the Nominating and Governance Committee
identifies and recommends director candidates, develops and recommends governance principles, and recommends director
nominees to serve on committees of the Board of Directors. The responsibilities of our Nominating and Governance
Committee are further described in the committee charter which is available at the Corporate/Investors section under Mission
Statement/Corporate Governance on www.microchip.com. The Board of Directors has determined that the members of the
Nominating and Governance Committee are independent directors as defined by applicable SEC rules and NASDAQ listing
standards.
When considering a candidate for a director position, the Nominating and Governance Committee looks for
demonstrated character, judgment, relevant business, functional and industry experience, and a high degree of skill. The
Nominating and Governance Committee evaluates director nominees recommended by a stockholder in the same manner as it
would any other nominee. The Nominating and Governance Committee will consider nominees recommended by stockholders
provided such recommendations are made in accordance with procedures described in this proxy statement under
“Requirements, Including Deadlines, for Receipt of Stockholder Proposals for the 2010 Annual Meeting of Stockholders;
Discretionary Authority to Vote on Stockholder Proposals” at page 40. We do not pay any third party to identify or assist in
identifying or evaluating potential nominees for director.
Attendance at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders
All directors are encouraged, but not required, to attend our annual meeting of stockholders. All directors attended
our 2008 annual meeting of stockholders.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE (1)
The Board of Directors has adopted a written charter setting out the purposes and responsibilities of the Audit
Committee. The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee review and assess the adequacy of the charter on an annual
basis. A copy of the Audit Committee Charter, as last amended on May 13, 2007, is available at the Corporate/Investors
section under Mission Statement/Corporate Governance on www.microchip.com.
Each of the directors who serves on the Audit Committee meets the independence and experience requirements of the
SEC rules and NASDAQ listing standards. What this means is the Microchip Board of Directors has determined that no
member of the Audit Committee has a relationship with Microchip that may interfere with such member’s independence from
Microchip and its management, and that all members have the required knowledge and experience to perform their duties as
committee members.
We have received from Ernst & Young LLP the written disclosure and the letter required by Rule 3526 of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (Communication with Audit Committees Concerning Independence) and have discussed
with Ernst & Young LLP their independence from Microchip. We also discussed with Ernst & Young LLP all matters
required to be discussed by the Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (Professional Standards). We have
considered whether and determined that the provision of the non-audit services rendered to us by Ernst & Young LLP during
fiscal 2009 was compatible with maintaining the independence of Ernst & Young LLP.
We have reviewed and discussed with management the audited annual financial statements included in Microchip’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 and filed with the SEC, as well as the unaudited
financial statements filed with Microchip’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. We also met with both management and Ernst &
Young LLP to discuss those financial statements.
Based on these reviews and discussions, we recommended to the Board of Directors that Microchip’s audited financial
statements be included in Microchip’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 for filing with
the SEC.
By the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors:
Matthew W. Chapman (Chairman)
Albert J. Hugo-Martinez
Wade F. Meyercord
Director Compensation
Procedures Regarding Director Compensation
The Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, sets non-employee director
compensation. Microchip does not pay employee directors for services provided as a member of the Board of Directors. The
current program of cash and equity compensation for non-employee directors has been in effect for several years, and is
designed to achieve the following goals: compensation should fairly pay directors for work required for a company of
Microchip’s size and scope; compensation should align directors’ interests with the long-term interests of stockholders;
compensation should be competitive so as to attract and retain qualified non-employee directors; and the structure of the
compensation should be simple, transparent and easy for stockholders to understand. Non-employee director compensation is
typically reviewed once per year to assess whether any adjustment is needed to further such goals. The Board of Directors has
not used outside consultants in setting non-employee director compensation.
(1) The Report of the Audit Committee is not “soliciting” material and is not deemed “filed” with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
and is not incorporated by reference into any filings of Microchip under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
whether made before or after the date of this proxy statement and irrespective of any general incorporation language contained in such
filings.

Director Fees
Effective November 3, 2008, non-employee directors receive an annual retainer of $28,500, paid in quarterly
installments, $3,000 for each meeting attended in person and do not receive any additional amounts for serving as a committee
chair. Also, directors do not receive any compensation for telephonic meetings of the Board of Directors or for meetings of
committees of the Board. From April 1, 2008 to November 3, 2008, non-employee directors received an annual retainer of
$26,000, paid in quarterly installments, $2,800 for each meeting attended in person, the Chairman of the Audit Committee
received an annual retainer of $3,250 paid in quarterly installments, and the Chair of the Compensation Committee, and the
Chair of the Nomination and Governance Committee each received an annual retainer of $1,600 paid in quarterly installments.
Equity Compensation
Under the terms of our current 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, each non-employee director is automatically granted:
•
•
an option to purchase 12,000 shares of common stock upon his or her first election to the Board of Directors,
and
an option to purchase 6,000 shares of common stock on the date of our annual stockholders’ meeting,
provided that he or she has served as a non-employee director for at least three months on that date and has
been elected by the stockholders to serve as a member of the Board at that annual meeting.
In accordance with the foregoing, on August 15, 2008, each of Mr. Chapman, Mr. Day, Mr. Hugo-Martinez and Mr.
Meyercord was granted an option to acquire 6,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $33.90 per share. Each such
option vests in 12 equal and successive monthly installments following the grant date.
On June 1, 2009, our Board of Directors approved our amended and restated 2004 Equity Incentive Plan which,
among other things, would change the equity compensation for our non-employee directors to provide (a) on first appointment
as a director, an initial grant of an option to purchase 6,000 shares of common stock and $60,000 in RSUs (based on the market
price of our stock on the grant date), each subject to four-year vesting, (b) an annual grant of an option to purchase 3,000
shares of common stock subject to vesting over 12 months and $30,000 in RSUs (based on the market price of our stock on the
grant date) subject to two-year vesting; and (c) for non-employee directors who as of the 2009 annual meeting have served as
our director for at least five years, a one-time grant of $100,000 in RSUs (based on the market price of our stock on the grant
date) subject to four-year vesting. These changes are subject to approval by our stockholders at the annual meeting as
described in Proposal Two.
The following table details the total compensation for Microchip’s non-employee directors for fiscal 2009.

2009, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, as revised, “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS

the annual stock option grants of 6,000 shares of common stock on August 15, 2008 at an exercise price per share of $33.90.
The grant date fair value of such equity award made to each of the non-employee directors on August 15, 2008 is $62,355.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
The Compensation Committee is currently comprised of Mr. Day (Chair), Mr. Hugo-Martinez and Mr. Meyercord,
three of our independent directors. From April 1, 2008 through August 14, 2008, the Compensation Committee was comprised
of Mr. Day and Mr. Meyercord. None of Mr. Day, Mr. Hugo-Martinez nor Mr. Meyercord had any related-party transaction
with Microchip during fiscal 2009 other than service as a director. In addition, none of such directors has a relationship which
would constitute a compensation committee interlock under applicable SEC rules.
Further, during the most recent fiscal year, no Microchip executive officer served on the compensation committee (or
equivalent) or the board of directors, of another entity whose executive officer(s) served either on Microchip’s Compensation
Committee or Board of Directors.
CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
During fiscal 2009, Microchip had no related-party transactions within the meaning of the applicable SEC rules.
Pursuant to its charter, the Audit Committee reviews issues involving potential conflicts of interest and reviews and
approves all related-party transactions as contemplated by NASDAQ and SEC rules and regulations. The Audit Committee
may consult with the Board of Directors regarding certain conflict of interest matters that do not involve a member of the
Board.
SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
Section 16(a) and related rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 require our directors, executive officers and
stockholders holding more than 10% of our common stock to file reports of holdings and transactions in Microchip stock with
the SEC and to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely on our review of the copies of such
forms received by us during fiscal 2009, and written representations from our directors and executive officers that no other
reports were required, we believe that all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our directors, executive officers and
stockholders holding more than 10% of our common stock were met for fiscal 2009, except for the following: Mr. Moorthy
filed one Form 4 in May 2008 that omitted two grants of RSUs and, later in May 2008, filed an amended Form 4 to include
such grants; Mr. Sanghi filed a Form 4 one day late in June 2008 with respect to two transactions; and Mr. Meyercord filed
one late Form 4 in December 2008 with respect to one transaction.
PROPOSAL ONE
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
A board of five directors will be elected at the annual meeting. Unless proxy cards are otherwise marked, the persons
named in the proxy card will vote such proxy for the election of the nominees named below. Each of the nominees is currently

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT OF OUR 2004 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
PROPOSAL TWO
Our 2004 Equity Incentive Plan was approved by our stockholders in August 2004 and provides for the grant of stock
options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock (which may be granted in the form of restricted stock shares or RSUs),
performance shares, performance units, and deferred stock units to our employees and consultants as well as for automatic
grants of awards to the non-employee members of our Board of Directors. As of March 31, 2009, there were approximately
4,895 employees (including executive officers) who were eligible to participate in the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan.
On June 1, 2009, our Board of Directors approved our amended and restated 2004 Equity Incentive Plan to:
•
•
change the equity compensation for our non-employee directors to provide (a) on first appointment as a
director, an initial grant of an option to purchase 6,000 shares of common stock and $60,000 in RSUs (based
on the market price of our stock on the grant date), each subject to four-year vesting, (b) an annual grant of
an option to purchase 3,000 shares of common stock subject to vesting over 12 months and $30,000 in RSUs
(based on the market price of our stock on the grant date) subject to two-year vesting; and (c) for non-
employee directors who as of the 2009 annual meeting have served as our director for at least five years, a
one-time grant of $100,000 in RSUs (based on the market price of our stock on the grant date) subject to
four-year vesting, and
revise the definition of “performance goals” in the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan related to the treatment of
awards under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.
The purpose of the change in equity compensation for our non-employee directors is to enable us to continue to attract
and retain qualified persons to serve as directors. Our Board also believes that the equity compensation for our non-employee
directors should include RSUs together with a reduced number of options to be more in line with the equity awards provided to
our officers and key employees. In this regard, since fiscal 2006, we have used RSUs, as opposed to stock options, as our
preferred method of providing equity incentives to our employees, and, since fiscal 2007, we have not granted stock options to
any of our executive officers or key employees. However, under our 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, our non-employee directors
have continued to receive stock options under the automatic grant provisions of such plan. Any change to such automatic grant
provisions requires stockholder approval.
The purpose of the amendment to the definition of “performance goals” under our 2004 Equity Incentive Plan is to
give the Compensation Committee of our Board more flexibility in structuring equity compensation arrangements that will
qualify as “performance based compensation” for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code and to help us
achieve our goal of attracting, retaining and motivating our personnel. In particular, as amended and restated, our 2004 Equity
Incentive Plan will allow us to set goals based on a variety of GAAP and non-GAAP financial metrics, operating milestones or
other object performance criteria as described in more detail in the summary below. We believe that, as revised, the 2004
Equity Incentive Plan will continue to be an essential element of our competitive compensation package.
Please see the summary of our 2004 Equity Incentive Plan below.
Vote Required and Recommendation
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock present in person or represented by
proxy and entitled to vote at the annual meeting is required to approve the amendment and restatement of our 2004 Equity
Incentive Plan.
Our executive officers have an interest in this proposal as they may receive awards of RSUs under the 2004 Equity
Incentive Plan. The non-employee members of our Board of Directors have an interest in this proposal as they may receive
awards of options and RSUs under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan.
Our Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR Proposal Two to amend and restate our 2004 Equity
Incentive Plan. Proxies solicited by the Board of Directors will be so voted unless stockholders specify otherwise in
their proxies.

Summary of the Amended 2004 Equity Incentive Plan
The essential features of the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan are summarized below. This summary does not purport to be
complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the provisions of the amended and restated 2004 Equity Incentive
Plan, which is attached as Appendix A. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined shall have the meanings set forth in the
2004 Equity Incentive Plan.
General. The purposes of the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan are to attract and retain the best available personnel, provide
additional incentive to our employees, consultants and non-employee directors and promote the success of our business.
Administration. The 2004 Equity Incentive Plan may be administered by our Board of Directors or a committee,
which our Board of Directors may appoint from among its members (the “Administrator”). Subject to the provisions of the
2004 Equity Incentive Plan, the Administrator has the authority to: (i) interpret the plan and apply its provisions; (ii) prescribe,
amend or rescind rules and regulations relating to the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan; (iii) select the persons to whom awards are
to be granted (apart from the non-employee director automatic grant provisions); (iv) subject to individual fiscal year limits
applicable to each type of award, determine the number of shares or equivalent units to be made subject to each award; (v)
determine whether and to what extent awards are to be granted; (vi) determine the terms and conditions applicable to awards
generally and of each individual award (including the provisions of the award agreement to be entered into between Microchip
and the participant); (vii) amend any outstanding award subject to applicable legal restrictions (except repricing an option or
SAR); (viii) authorize any person to execute, on our behalf, any instrument required to effect the grant of an award; (ix)
approve forms of agreement for use under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan; (x) allow participants to satisfy withholding tax
obligations by electing to have Microchip withhold from the shares or cash to be issued upon exercise, vesting of an award (or
distribution of a deferred stock unit) that number of shares or cash having a fair market value equal to the minimum amount
required to be withheld; and (xi) subject to certain limitations, take any other actions deemed necessary or advisable for the
administration of the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan. All decisions, interpretations and other actions of the Administrator shall be
final and binding on all holders of options or rights and on all persons deriving their rights therefrom.
Discount Award Limitations. No more than 30% of the shares initially available for issuance under the 2004 Equity
Incentive Plan and 30% of the shares subsequently added to the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan by virtue of options expiring or
being cancelled under the 1993 Stock Option Plan and the 1997 Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan may be granted pursuant to
restricted share or share unit awards with a purchase price that is less than 100% of fair market value on the date of grant;
provided, however, that such 30% limitation does not apply to RSUs issued on or after August 18, 2006. No stock options or
stock appreciation rights may be granted with an exercise price that is less than 100% of fair market value on the date of grant.
No Repricing. The 2004 Equity Incentive Plan prohibits option or stock appreciation right repricing, including by
way of an exchange for another award.
Eligibility. The 2004 Equity Incentive Plan provides that awards may be granted to our employees, consultants and
non-employee directors.
Code Section 162(m) Performance Goals. We have designed the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan so that it permits us to
also issue other awards that qualify as performance-based under Section 162(m) of the Code. Thus, the Administrator may
make performance goals applicable to a participant with respect to an award. Prior to the amendment and restatement of our
2004 Equity Incentive Plan, at the Administrator’s discretion, one or more of the following performance goals may apply:
revenue, cash position, earnings per share, net income, operating cash flow, operating expense, operating income, return on
assets, return on equity, return on sales, total stockholder return, and gross margin. The Administrator shall appropriately
adjust any evaluation of performance under a performance goal to exclude (i) any extraordinary non-recurring items as
described in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30 and/or in management’s discussion and analysis of financial
conditions and results of operations appearing in our quarterly or annual reporting with the Securities and Exchange
Commission for the applicable year, or (ii) the effect of any changes in accounting principles affecting our business unit’s
reported results. Moreover, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may adjust any performance goal (in both setting and
determining the performance) to exclude other items, such as compensation expenses under FAS 123R. If Proposal Two is
approved at the annual meeting, under our 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and restated, at the Administrator’s
discretion, the performance measures for any performance period may be one or more of the following objective
performance criteria: cash flow, cash position, revenue (on an absolute basis or adjusted for currency effects), revenue
growth, contribution margin, gross margin or gross margin as a percentage of revenue, operating margin or operating margin
as a percentage of revenue, operating expenses or operating expenses as a percentage of revenue, earnings (which may
10
include earnings before interest and taxes, earnings before taxes and net earnings), earnings per share, net income, stock
price, return on equity, total stockholder return, growth in stockholder value relative to a specified publicly reported index,
return on capital, return on assets or net assets, return on investment, operating profit or net operating profit, market share
(which include ranking for a specific product line or market share percentage for a given product line), contract awards or
backlog, overhead or other expense reduction, credit rating, objective customer indicators, new product invention or
innovation, attainment of research and development milestones, improvements in productivity, attainment of objective
operating goals and objective employee metrics. At the Administrator’s discretion, the objective performance criteria may be
applied to Microchip as a whole or (except with respect to stockholder return metrics) to a region, business unit, affiliate or
business segment or specific product or products, and measured either on an absolute basis or relative to a pre-established
target, to a previous period’s results or to a designated comparison group. At the Administrator’s sole discretion, with
respect to financial metrics, which may be determined in accordance with GAAP or accounting principals established by the
International Accounting Standards Board, or IASB Principles, such objective performance criteria may be adjusted when
established to exclude any items otherwise includable under GAAP or under IASB Principles or any other objectively
determinable items including, without limitation, any extraordinary non-recurring items, the effect of any merger,
acquisition, or other business combination or divestiture, or the effect of any changes in accounting principles affecting
Microchip’s or a business unit’s, region’s, affiliate’s or business segment’s reported results. The Administrator may
use other performance goals for awards that are not intended to qualify as performance-based under Section 162(m) of the
Code.
Terms and Conditions of Options. Each option granted under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan is evidenced by a
written stock option agreement between the optionee and Microchip and is subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a)
Exercise Price. The Administrator determines the exercise price of options at the time the options are
granted. However, the exercise price of a stock option may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the common
stock on the date the option is granted. As our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq National Market, the fair market value is
the closing sale price for the common stock (or the closing bid if no sales were reported) on the date the option is granted.
(b)
Form of Consideration. The means of payment for shares issued upon exercise of an option is specified
in each option agreement and generally may be made by cash, check, other shares of our common stock owned by the optionee,
delivery of an exercise notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver to us the exercise price from sale
proceeds, or by a combination thereof or other consideration permitted by applicable laws.
(c)
Exercise of the Option. Each stock option agreement will specify the term of the option and the date
when the option is to become exercisable. However, in no event shall an option granted under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan
be exercised more than ten (10) years after the date of grant.
(d)
Termination of Employment. If an optionee’s employment terminates for any reason (other than
misconduct, death or permanent disability), all vested options held by such optionee under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan
expire upon the earlier of (i) such period of time as is set forth in his or her option agreement, or three (3) months if no period
is stated, or (ii) the expiration date of the option. The optionee may exercise all or part of his or her option at any time before
such expiration to the extent that such option was exercisable at the time of termination of employment. Unvested options shall
revert to the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan upon termination.
(e)
Permanent Disability. If an optionee is unable to continue employment with us as a result of permanent
and total disability (as defined in the Code), all options held by such optionee under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan shall expire
upon the earlier of (i) six (6) months after the date of termination of the optionee’s employment or (ii) the expiration date of the
option. The optionee may exercise all or part of his or her option at any time before such expiration to the extent that such
option was exercisable at the time of termination of employment.
(f)
Death. If an optionee dies while employed by us, 100% of the optionee’s awards shall immediately vest,
and shall expire upon the earlier of (i) 12 months after the optionee’s death or (ii) the expiration date of the option. The
executors or other legal representatives or the optionee may exercise all or part of the optionee’s option at any time before such
expiration with respect to all shares subject to such option.
(g)
Other Provisions. The stock option agreement may contain terms, provisions and conditions that are
consistent with the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan as determined by the Administrator.
11
162(m) Share Limit. No participant may be granted stock options and stock appreciation rights to purchase more than
1,500,000 shares of common stock in any fiscal year, except that up to 4,000,000 shares may be granted in the participant’s
first fiscal year of service.
Exercise Price and Other Terms of Stock Appreciation Rights. The Administrator, subject to the provisions of the
2004 Equity Incentive Plan (including the 162(m) share limit referred to above), shall have complete discretion to determine
the terms and conditions of SARs granted under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan.
Payment of Stock Appreciation Right Amount. Upon exercise of an SAR, the holder of the SAR shall be entitled to
receive payment in an amount equal to the product of (i) the difference between the fair market value of a share on the date of
exercise and the exercise price and (ii) the number of shares for which the SAR is exercised.
Payment upon Exercise of Stock Appreciation Right. At the discretion of the Administrator, payment to the holder of
an SAR may be in cash, shares of our common stock or a combination thereof. To the extent that an SAR is settled in cash, the
shares available for issuance under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan shall not be diminished as a result of the settlement.
Stock Appreciation Right Agreement. Each SAR grant shall be evidenced by an agreement that shall specify the
exercise price, the term of the SAR, the conditions of exercise, and such other terms and conditions as the committee, in its sole
discretion, shall determine.
Expiration of Stock Appreciation Rights. SARs granted under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan expire as determined by
the Administrator, but in no event later than ten (10) years from date of grant. No SAR may be exercised by any person after
its expiration.
Termination of Employment. If a SAR holder terminates employment, other than for death or disability, the
participant may exercise vested SARs within such period as specified by the SAR agreement, or three (3) months if no period
is specified, but in no event later than the term of the SAR. In the event of termination for disability, the participant may
exercise vested SARs for a period specified in the SAR agreement, or six (6) months following termination if no period is
specified. In the event of termination for death, all SARs become vested, and the participant may exercise the SARs for a
period specified in the SAR agreement, or twelve (12) months if no period is specified.
Grant of Restricted Stock. Subject to the terms and conditions of the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, restricted stock may
be granted to our employees and consultants at any time and from time to time at the discretion of the Administrator. The
Administrator shall have complete discretion to determine (i) the number of shares subject to a restricted stock award granted
to any participant and (ii) the conditions for grant or for vesting that must be satisfied, which typically will be based principally
or solely on continued provision of services but may include a performance-based component. However, no participant shall
be granted a restricted stock award covering more than 300,000 shares in any of our fiscal years, except that up to 750,000
shares may be granted on the participant’s first fiscal year of service. Until the shares are issued, no right to vote or receive
dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to the underlying shares. Restricted stock may also be
granted in the form of RSUs, which are generally not issued until the vesting date.
Restricted Stock Award Agreement. Each restricted stock grant shall be evidenced by an agreement that shall specify
the purchase price (if any) and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine; provided, however, that if
the restricted stock grant has a purchase price, the purchase price must be paid no more than ten (10) years following the date
of grant.
Grant of Performance Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions of the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, performance
shares may be granted to our employees and consultants at any time and from time to time as shall be determined at the
discretion of the Administrator. The Administrator shall have complete discretion to determine (i) the number of shares of our
common stock subject to a performance share award granted to any service provider and (ii) the conditions that must be
satisfied for grant or for vesting, which typically will be based principally or solely on achievement of performance milestones
but may include a service-based component. However, no participant shall be granted a restricted stock award covering more
than 300,000 shares in any of our fiscal years, except that up to 750,000 shares may be granted on the participant’s first fiscal
year of service.
Performance Share Award Agreement. Each performance share grant shall be evidenced by an agreement that shall
specify such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine.
12
Grant of Performance Units. Performance units are similar to performance shares, except that they shall be settled in
cash equivalent to the fair market value of the underlying shares of our common stock, determined as of the vesting date. The
shares available for issuance under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan shall not be diminished as a result of the settlement of a
performance unit.
Performance Unit Award Agreement. Each performance unit grant shall be evidenced by an agreement that shall
specify such terms and conditions as shall be determined at the discretion of the Administrator. However, no participant shall
be granted a performance unit award covering more than $1,500,000 in any of Microchip’s fiscal years, except that a newly
hired participant may receive a performance unit award covering up to $4,000,000.
Deferred Stock Units. Deferred stock units shall consist of a restricted stock, performance share or performance unit
award that the Administrator, in its sole discretion, permits to be paid out in installments or on a deferred basis, in accordance
with rules and procedures established by the Administrator. Deferred stock units are subject to the individual annual limits that
apply to each type of award.
Awards to Non-Employee Directors. Prior to the amendment and restatement of our 2004 Equity Incentive Plan by
our Board on June 1, 2009, our 2004 Equity Incentive Plan provided for initial and annual awards to non-employee directors
within prescribed parameters. Specifically, each non-employee director is entitled to receive the following automatic option
grants of Common Stock: (i) an initial option grant of 12,000 shares on the date first appointed or elected to the Board of
Directors (except for non-employee directors who previously served as directors); and (ii) an annual option grant of 6,000
shares on the first business day of the month in which our annual stockholders’ meeting is scheduled. Only non-employee
directors who have served as such for at least three months as of the grant date are eligible to receive the annual grant. If
Proposal Two is approved by our stockholders at the annual meeting, our 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and restated,
would result in each non-employee director being entitled to receive the following automatic equity award grants: (i) an initial
option grant of 6,000 shares, and $60,000 of RSUs (based on the market price of our stock on the grant date) on the date first
appointed or elected to the Board of Directors (except for non-employee directors who previously served as directors); (ii) an
annual option grant of 3,000 shares and $30,000 of RSUs (based on the market price of our stock on the grant date) on the date
of our annual meeting of stockholders’, provided that such non-employee director has served as such for at least three months
as of the grant date; and (iii) for each non-employee director who has served as a non-employee director for at least five years
as of the date of our 2009 annual stockholders’ meeting and provided that such director is elected by the stockholders to
continue to serve as a director at that meeting, a one-time grant of $100,000 of RSUs (based on the market price of our stock
on the grant date).
Non-Transferability of Awards. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, an award granted under the 2004
Equity Incentive Plan may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than
by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the recipient, only by the recipient.
If the Administrator makes an award granted under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan transferable, such award shall contain such
additional terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate.
Acceleration upon Death. In the event that a participant dies while a service provider, 100% of his or her awards shall
immediately vest.
Leave of Absence. In the event that a participant goes on a leave of absence, award vesting will cease until he or she
returns to work, except as required by law or as determined by the Administrator.
Misconduct. In the event a participant’s service is terminated for misconduct, including but not limited to dishonesty,
willful misconduct, fraud, embezzlement or unauthorized use of confidential information, then all awards held by the
participant shall terminate immediately.
Adjustment Upon Changes in Capitalization. In the event that our capital stock is changed by reason of any stock
split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of our common stock or any other increase or decrease
in the number of issued shares of common stock effected without receipt of consideration by us, appropriate proportional
adjustments shall be made in the number and class of shares of stock subject to the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, the individual
fiscal year limits applicable to restricted stock, performance share awards, SARs and options, the number and class of shares of
stock subject to any award outstanding under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, and the exercise price of any such outstanding
option or SAR or other award, provided that such automatic adjustments will not be made to the number of shares to be granted
13
to our non-employee Directors under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan. Any such adjustment shall be made by the
Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive.
Change of Control. In the event of a change of control, the successor corporation (or its parent or subsidiary) will
assume or substitute for each outstanding award. If the successor corporation refuses to assume the awards or to substitute
equivalent awards, such awards shall become 100% vested. In such event, the Administrator shall notify the participant that
each award subject to exercise is fully exercisable for 30 days from the date of such notice and that the award terminates upon
expiration of such period.
Amendment, Suspensions and Termination of the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan. Our Board of Directors may amend,
suspend or terminate the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan at any time; provided, however, that stockholder approval is required for
any amendment to the extent necessary to comply with Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or
“Rule 16b-3,” or Section 422 of the Code, or any similar rule or statute. The 2004 Equity Incentive Plan will naturally expire
in September 2014, unless earlier terminated.
Federal Tax Information
Options. Options granted under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan are nonstatutory options that do not qualify as
incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code.
An optionee will not recognize any taxable income at the time the optionee is granted a nonstatutory option.
However, upon its exercise, the optionee will recognize taxable income generally measured as the excess of the then fair
market value of the shares purchased over the purchase price. Any taxable income recognized in connection with an option
exercise by an optionee who is also our employee will be subject to tax withholding by us. Upon resale of such shares by the
optionee, any difference between the sale price and the optionee’s purchase price, to the extent not recognized as taxable
income as described above, will be treated as short-term or long-term capital gain or loss, depending on the holding period.
Stock Appreciation Rights. No taxable income is reportable when an SAR is granted to a participant. Upon exercise,
the participant will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the fair market value of any shares of our common stock
received and/or the amount of cash received. Any additional gain or loss recognized upon any later disposition of the shares of
our common stock would be a capital gain or loss.
Restricted Stock, Performance Units and Performance Shares. A participant will not have taxable income upon grant
(unless, with respect to restricted stock that is not in the form of RSUs, he or she elects to be taxed at that time). Instead, he or
she will recognize ordinary income at the time of vesting/delivery equal to the fair market value (on the vesting date) of the
vested shares or cash received minus any amount paid for the shares of our vested common stock.
Code Section 409A. Section 409A of the Code, which was added by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004,
provides certain new requirements on non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements. These include new requirements
with respect to an individual’s election to defer compensation and the individual’s selection of the timing and form of
distribution of the deferred compensation. Code Section 409A also generally provides that distributions must be made on or
following the occurrence of certain events (e.g., the individual’s separation from service, a predetermined date, or the
individual’s death). Code Section 409A imposes restrictions on an individual’s ability to change his or her distribution timing
or form after the compensation has been deferred. For certain individuals who are officers, Code Section 409A requires that
such individual’s distribution commence no earlier than six months after such officer’s separation from service.
Awards granted under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan with a deferral feature will be subject to the requirements of
Code Section 409A. If an Award is subject to and fails to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 409A, the recipient of that
Award will recognize ordinary income on the amounts deferred under the Award, to the extent vested, which may be prior to
when the compensation is actually or constructively received. Also, if an Award that is subject to Code Section 409A fails to
comply with Code Section 409A’s provisions, Code Section 409A imposes an additional twenty percent (20%) federal income
tax on compensation recognized as ordinary income, as well as possible interest charges and penalties. Certain states have
enacted laws similar to Section 409A which impose additional taxes, interest and penalties on non-qualified deferred
compensation arrangements. The Company will also have reporting requirements with respect to such amounts, and will have
certain withholding requirements.
Tax Effect for Microchip. We generally will be entitled to a tax deduction in connection with an award under the 2004
Equity Incentive Plan in an amount equal to the ordinary income realized by a participant at the time the participant recognizes
14
such income (for example, the exercise of a nonqualified stock option). Special rules limit the deductibility of compensation
paid to our CEO, CFO and to each of our three most highly compensated executive officers. Under Section 162(m) of the
Code, the annual compensation paid to any of these specified executives will be deductible only to the extent that it does not
exceed $1,000,000. However, we can preserve the deductibility of certain compensation in excess of $1,000,000 if the
conditions of Section 162(m) are met with respect to awards. The 2004 Equity Incentive Plan has been designed to permit the
committee to grant awards that qualify as performance-based for purposes of satisfying the conditions of Section 162(m),
thereby permitting us to continue to receive a federal income tax deduction in connection with such awards.
The foregoing is only a summary of the effect of federal income taxation upon us and upon participants, does
not purport to be complete, and does not discuss the tax consequences of any participant’s death or the income tax laws
of any municipality, state or foreign country in which a participant may reside.
New Plan Benefits
The amount, timing, and value of discretionary awards under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, including grants to our
CEO, our current and former CFOs and our three other most highly compensated executive officers, is not determinable. The
future award of options or RSUs to non-employee directors is subject to the election of such individuals as directors and the
fair market value of the common stock on the date the awards are made. The following table sets forth information with respect
to the grant of options during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 to: (a) non-employee directors; (b) our CEO, our current
and former CFOs and our three other most highly compensated executive officers named in this proxy statement; (c) all current
executive officers as a group; and (d) all other employees as a group:

PROPOSAL THREE
RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors has appointed Ernst & Young LLP, independent registered public
accounting firm, to audit our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2010. Ernst & Young LLP
has audited our financial statements since the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002 and has served as our independent registered
public accounting firm since June 2001. The partner in charge of our audit is rotated every five years. Other partners and non-
partner personnel are rotated on a periodic basis.
We anticipate that a representative of Ernst & Young LLP will be present at the annual meeting, will have the
opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires and will be available to respond to appropriate questions. Stockholder
ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP is not required by our Bylaws or applicable law. However, our Board of
Directors chose to submit such appointment to our stockholders for ratification. In the event of a negative vote on such
ratification, the Audit Committee will reconsider its selection.
Upon the recommendation of our Audit Committee, the Board of Directors recommends that stockholders vote
FOR ratification of such appointment.
Fees Paid to Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Audit Fees
This category includes fees associated with our annual audit, the reviews of our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and
statutory audits required internationally. This category also includes advice on audit and accounting matters that arose during,
or as a result of, the audit or the review of our interim financial statements, statutory audits and the assistance with review of
our SEC registration statements. This category also included fees associated with the audit of our internal control over
financial reporting required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The aggregate fees billed or to be billed by
Ernst & Young LLP in each of the last two fiscal years for such services were $967,000 for fiscal 2009 and $1,188,000 for
fiscal 2008.
Audit-Related Fees
This category includes fees associated with employee benefit plan audits, internal control reviews, accounting
consultations and attestation services that are not required by statute or regulation. The aggregate fees billed or to be billed by
Ernst & Young LLP in each of the last two fiscal years for such services were $0 for fiscal 2009 and $85,000 for fiscal 2008.
Tax Fees
This category includes fees associated with tax return preparation, tax advice and tax planning. The aggregate fees
billed or to be billed by Ernst & Young LLP in each of the last two fiscal years for such services were $258,000 for fiscal 2009
and $262,000 for fiscal 2008.
All Other Fees
This category includes fees for support and advisory services not related to audit services or tax services. There were
no such fees in fiscal 2009 or fiscal 2008.
Our Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent
registered public accounting firm. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other
services. The Audit Committee has adopted a policy for the pre-approval of services provided by our independent registered
public accounting firm. Under the policy, pre-approval is generally provided for up to one year, and any pre-approval is
detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is subject to a specific budget or limit. The Audit Committee
may also pre-approve particular services on a case-by-case basis. The Chairman of the Audit Committee has the delegated
16
authority from the Audit Committee to pre-approve a specified level of services, and such pre-approvals are then
communicated to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. During fiscal 2009, all audit and non-audit
services rendered by Ernst & Young LLP were approved in accordance with our pre-approval policy.
Our Audit Committee has determined that the non-audit services rendered by Ernst & Young LLP during fiscal 2009
and fiscal 2008 were compatible with maintaining the independence of Ernst & Young LLP.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Overview of the Compensation Program
The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, presently comprised of Mr. Day, Mr. Hugo-Martinez and
Mr. Meyercord, reviews the performance of our executive officers and makes compensation decisions regarding our executive
officers. Our policies for setting compensation for each of our named executive officers (CEO, our current and former CFOs,
and our three most highly paid executive officers) are the same as those for the rest of our executive officers. Our
compensation program is a comprehensive package designed to motivate the executive officers to achieve our corporate
objectives and is intended to be competitive and allow us to attract and retain highly qualified executive officers. In general,
the types of compensation and benefits provided to our executive officers are similar to those provided to most other Microchip
employees, and include salary, cash bonuses, RSUs, and other benefits described below.
Our Executive Compensation Policy and Objectives
Our compensation policy for executive officers, including our named executive officers, and key employees is based
on a “pay-for-performance” philosophy. This “pay-for-performance” philosophy emphasizes variable compensation, primarily
by placing a large portion of pay at risk. We believe that this philosophy meets the following objectives:
18
•
•
•
•
•
•
rewards performance that may contribute to increased stockholder value,
attracts, retains, motivates and rewards individuals with competitive compensation opportunities,
aligns an executive officer’s total compensation with our business objectives,
fosters a team environment among our management that focuses their energy on achieving our financial and
business objectives consistent with Microchip’s “guiding values,”
balances short-term and long-term strategic goals, and
builds and encourages ownership of our common stock.
Decisions regarding cash and equity compensation also include subjective determinations and consideration of various
factors with the weight given to a particular factor varying from time to time and in various individual cases, such as an
executive officer’s experience in the industry and the perceived value of the executive officer’s position to Microchip as a
whole.
In response to the adverse global economic conditions which impacted our business in fiscal 2009, we took a number
of actions to significantly reduce our operating expenses, including significant reductions in compensation for our executive
officers and other employees. These actions included:
•
•
•
•
•
•
a reduction in salary equal to one week without pay in the third quarter of fiscal 2009 which ended
December 31, 2008,
a 10% salary reduction for all executive officers effective December 29, 2008,
a week off without pay in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 which ended March 31, 2009,
no payments under our Executive Management Incentive Compensation Plan, or EMICP, or under our
Discretionary Management Incentive Compensation Plan, or DMICP, for the third and fourth quarters of
fiscal 2009,
no payments to officers or employees under our Employee Cash Bonus Program, or ECBP, for the second,
third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2009, and
no matching contributions under our 401(k) for the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2009.
We believe that the overall compensation levels for our executive officers, including our named executive officers, in
fiscal 2009 were consistent with our “pay-for-performance” philosophy and are commensurate with our fiscal 2009
performance.
Executive Compensation Process
On an annual basis, the Compensation Committee evaluates and establishes the compensation of the executive
officers, including the named executive officers. The Compensation Committee seeks input from Mr. Sanghi when discussing
the performance of, and compensation levels for, the executive officers other than himself. Mr. Sanghi does not participate in
deliberations relating to his own compensation.
The Compensation Committee designs our executive compensation program to be competitive with those of other
companies in the semiconductor or related industries that are similar to us in number of employees, revenue and capitalization.
The Compensation Committee determines appropriate levels of compensation for each executive officer based on their level of
responsibility within the organization, performance, and overall contribution. After such determination, the Compensation
Committee makes allocations between long-term and short-term as well as cash and non-cash elements of compensation.
Microchip’s financial and business objectives, the salaries of executive officers in similar positions with comparable companies
and individual performance are considered in making these determinations. If compensation information is reviewed for other
companies, it is obtained from published materials such as proxy statements, and information gathered from such companies
directly. We do not engage consultants to conduct such review process for us.
The executive officer compensation process begins with consideration of Microchip’s overall annual budget for
employee compensation. The Compensation Committee considers the budgeted salary data and individual executive officer
salary increases are determined with the goal of keeping the average executive officer salary increase within the budgeted
range for all other employees. In setting annual salaries for executive officers, the Compensation Committee also considers
relevant industry data but does not target any overall industry percentage level or peer group average.
19
Microchip’s annual budget is created as part of Microchip’s annual operating plan process under which business and
financial objectives are initially developed by our executive officers, in conjunction with their respective operating units, and
then discussed with and approved by our CEO. These objectives are then reviewed by our Board of Directors and the Board
sets the overall financial and business objectives for Microchip on which incentive compensation is based.
The Compensation Committee sets the compensation of our Chairman, CEO and President, Mr. Sanghi, in the same
manner as each of our other executive officers. In particular, the Compensation Committee considers Mr. Sanghi’s level of
responsibility, performance, and overall contribution to the results of the organization. The Compensation Committee also
considers the compensation of CEOs of other companies in the semiconductor or related industries that are similar to us in
number of employees, revenue and capitalization. Mr. Sanghi participates in the same cash incentive, equity incentive and
benefit programs as our other executive officers. For example, his compensation is subject to the same performance metrics
as our other executive officers under our EMICP and DMICP programs. The Compensation Committee recognizes that
Mr. Sanghi’s total compensation package is significantly higher than that of our other executive officers and the Committee
believes this is appropriate in consideration of Mr. Sanghi’s superior leadership of Microchip over a long period of time. In
particular, the Committee believes that Mr. Sanghi’s leadership has been key to the substantial revenue growth, strong market
position and substantial increase in the market value of Microchip since taking Microchip public in 1993, and to leading
Microchip’s strong performance relative to others in the industry in the current adverse conditions facing the semiconductor
industry and the global economy.
For fiscal 2009, the Compensation Committee reviewed and approved the total compensation package of all of our
executive officers, including the elements of compensation discussed below, and determined the amounts to be reasonable and
competitive. In addition, in light of the global economic downturn, the Compensation Committee took actions to reduce
executive compensation as part of Microchip’s overall efforts to significantly reduce its operating expenses.
Elements of Compensation
Our executive compensation program is currently comprised of four major elements:
•
•
•
•
annual base salary,
incentive cash bonuses,
equity compensation, and
compensation and employee benefits generally available to all of our employees.
The retirement benefits and other benefits offered to our executive officers are largely the same as those we provide to
a broad base of employees. While our executive officers’ level of participation in our management incentive compensation
plans and equity incentive plans is typically higher than for our non-executive employees, based on the officers’ level of
responsibility and industry experience, the plans in which our executive officers are eligible to participate are very similar to
those for our other employees. In accordance with Microchip’s compensation philosophy, we do not offer perquisites to our
executive officers. The Compensation Committee reviews each element of compensation separately and total compensation as
a whole, other than those benefits which are available to all employees. The Compensation Committee determines the
appropriate mix of elements to meet our compensation objectives and ensures that we remain competitive with the
compensation practices in our industry.
Although our executive officers are entitled to certain severance and change of control benefits (as described below),
the Compensation Committee does not consider such benefits to be elements of compensation for purposes of annual
compensation reviews because such benefits may never be paid.
Base Salaries. We review the base salaries of our executive officers each year. When setting base salaries, we review
the business and financial objectives for Microchip as a whole, as well as the objectives for each of the individual officers
relative to their respective areas of responsibility. We may also consider the salaries of executive officers in similar positions
with comparable companies in the semiconductor industry. This review encompasses the objectives for both the immediately
preceding fiscal year and the upcoming fiscal year.
After consideration of the factors described above and in light of the adverse global economic conditions that
impacted our business in fiscal 2009, the base salaries for our CEO and other named executive officers were not increased from
the fiscal 2008 levels. In addition, during the third quarter of fiscal 2009, our CEO and other named executive officers (and
many other employees) had their salaries reduced by one week’s pay. Also, effective December 29, 2008, our CEO and other
named executive officers (and many other employees), underwent a 10% reduction in base salary. In the fourth quarter of
20
fiscal 2009 our CEO and other named executive officers received a week off without pay. The only salary increase among our
named executive officers during fiscal 2009 was in connection with the promotion of our VP of Finance, J. Eric Bjornholt, to
the position of CFO effective January 1, 2009.
Incentive Cash Bonuses. The Compensation Committee sets performance goals which, if met, result in quarterly
payments to our executive officers under the EMICP. Executive officers may also receive quarterly payments under the
DMICP. The Committee establishes performance goals which it believes are challenging, require a high level of performance
and motivate participants to drive shareholder value, but which goals are expected to be achievable in the context of business
conditions anticipated at the time the goals are set. When setting the performance goals, the Committee places more emphasis
on the overall expected financial performance of Microchip rather than on the achievement of any one individual goal.
The Committee believes that this focus on the overall payout incentivizes outstanding performance across the corporation and
drives the overall financial success of the corporation. The Committee uses the DMICP to help achieve the overall objectives
of the performance bonus program.
In fiscal 2009, the quarterly payments under the EMICP for our named executive officers were targeted at an
aggregate of approximately $295,000 for all such officers as a group. The aggregate budgeted bonus pool under the various
management incentive compensation plans is calculated by multiplying the eligible executive officer’s bonus target percentage
by his or her base salary. Actual payments under the various management incentive plans are predicated on Microchip’s
quarterly operating results and, with respect to the DMICP, a subjective element. Bonuses under the DMICP are subject to a
maximum award of $2,500,000 per individual on an annual basis; however, all awards to date have been substantially less than
such maximum amount.
In fiscal 2009, the following business and financial areas were selected as the basis for calculating bonuses under our
management incentive compensation plans:
Total sequential revenue growth
16-bit sequential revenue growth
Analog sequential revenue growth

(non-GAAP)

(non-GAAP)

(1) The EMICP quarterly non–GAAP earnings per share (EPS) targets for fiscal 2009 were $0.42, $0.43, and
$0.37 for the first through third quarters, respectively. There was no EPS target set for the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2009 due to the uncertain economic conditions existing at the time. The EPS targets (as well as the
other targets under the EMICP) are set each quarter by the Compensation Committee and may be based on
either GAAP or non-GAAP financial results at the discretion of the Compensation Committee. The
Compensation Committee typically uses non-GAAP information when setting the targets because it believes
such targets are more useful in understanding our operating results due to the exclusion of non-cash and other
special charges.
Consistent with our “pay-for-performance” philosophy, our CEO and other executive officers received bonuses under
the EMICP and DMICP for the first two quarters of fiscal 2009 as we achieved or exceeded 100% of the Target Quarterly
Measurements stated above. However, to conserve cash, the Compensation Committee determined that only a portion of the
awards should be paid. In particular, the EMICP bonuses for the first quarter of fiscal 2009 were paid at 80% and the bonuses
for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 were paid at 60%. For the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2009, no bonuses were paid
under the EMICP as the performance criteria for such periods were not met and no amounts were paid under the DMICP for
such periods due to adverse global economic conditions. For fiscal 2009, the total cash bonus payments under the EMICP and
the DMICP for our named executive officers, other than our CEO, ranged from $9,240 to $47,450. In fiscal 2009, Mr. Sanghi
21
earned an aggregate EMICP bonus of $374,413, and no DMICP bonus. The differences in the levels of compensation under
these programs for the various executive officers are based upon their relative contribution, performance, and responsibility
level within the organization.
Equity Compensation. Equity compensation, such as RSUs, constitutes a significant portion of our incentive
compensation program because we believe that executive officers and key employees should hold a long-term equity stake in
Microchip to align their collective interests with the interests of our stockholders. In fiscal 2009, equity grants in the form of
RSUs were a significant portion of our executive officers’ total compensation package.
We typically make equity compensation grants to executive officers and key employees in connection with their initial
employment, and we also typically make quarterly evergreen grants of equity to incentivize employees on a continuing basis as
their initial equity awards vest. In setting the amount of the equity compensation grants, the estimated value of the grants is
considered, as well as the intrinsic value of the outstanding equity compensation held by the executive officer, both the
unvested retention value and the vested amount. In setting these amounts and any performance goals, the Committee uses its
judgment after considering the effect of the overall RSU amounts and the percentage of RSUs granted to executive officers in
connection with the overall financial results and performance of the corporation.
The evergreen grants of RSUs for fiscal 2009 were awarded with vesting subject to meeting specified performance
goals over identified periods. In fiscal 2009, these performance goals were related to achieving certain levels of operating
profit over a specified time frame. Specifically, with respect to the awards made in April 2008, the performance goal was
related to achieving non-GAAP operating profit for the six months ended September 30, 2008 from $160 million to $190
million with an achievement of $190 million of non-GAAP operating profit necessary for full vesting of the award. Based on
the actual operating profit for such period, these awards vested at 100%. With respect to the awards made in July 2008, the
performance goal was related to achieving non-GAAP operating profit for the six months ended December 31, 2008 from $157
million to $187 million with an achievement of $187 million of non-GAAP operating profit necessary for full vesting of the
award. Based on the actual operating profit for such period, the performance goal was not achieved, these awards did not vest
and were subsequently cancelled. With respect to the awards made in October 2008, the performance goal was related to
achieving non-GAAP operating profit for the six months ended March 31, 2008 from $112 million to $142 million with an
achievement of $142 million of non-GAAP operating profit necessary for full vesting of the award. Based on the actual
operating profit for such period, the performance goal was not achieved, these awards did not vest and were subsequently
cancelled. With respect to the awards made in February 2009, the performance goal was related to achieving non-GAAP
operating profit of $21 million or more for the three months ended June 30, 2009 in order for the awards to vest in full. As of
the date of this proxy statement, it was not known what portion of these awards, if any, will vest.
In addition to the evergreen RSU grants, in October 2008, we made additional RSU grants under the 2004 Equity
Incentive Plan in order to recognize achievement of the Target Quarterly Measurements under the EMICP for the first and
second quarters of fiscal 2009. These grants were made with vesting subject to a performance goal related to achieving non-
GAAP operating profit for the six months ended March 31, 2009 from $112 million to $142 million with an achievement of
$142 million of non-GAAP operating profit necessary for full vesting of the award. These awards were made in RSUs in
order to incentivize employees on a continuing basis and to conserve cash. Based on the actual operating profit for such
period, the performance goal was not achieved, these awards did not vest and were subsequently cancelled.
Grants of RSUs may also be made in connection with promotions, other changes in responsibilities or in recognition
of other individual or Microchip developments or achievements. Grants of RSUs in fiscal 2009 typically were scheduled to
vest approximately four years from the grant date. The RSUs were awarded without a purchase price and therefore have
immediate value to recipients upon vesting. On March 31, 2009, approximately 58% of our employees worldwide held RSUs
or options to purchase our common stock. Since the middle of fiscal 2006, RSUs have been the principal equity compensation
vehicle for Microchip executive officers and key employees.
In granting equity compensation awards to executive officers, we consider numerous factors, including:
•
•
•
•
the individual’s position and responsibilities,
the individual’s future potential to influence our mid- and long-term growth,
the vesting schedule of the awards, and
the number and value of awards previously granted.
22
We do not separately target the equity element of our executive officer compensation programs at a specific
percentage of overall compensation. However, overall total compensation is structured to be competitive so that we can attract
and retain executive officers. In setting equity award levels, we also take into consideration the impact of the equity-based
awards on the dilution of our stockholders’ interests in our common stock.
Historically, the Compensation Committee had granted RSUs to executive officers and current employees once per
year near the start of the fiscal year. In fiscal 2008, the Compensation Committee moved from annual grants to a quarterly
grant program in order to more evenly record its stock-based compensation expense. Grants of RSUs to new employees are
made once per month by the Employee Committee at a meeting of such committee. Microchip does not have any program,
plan or practice to time grants of RSUs in coordination with the release of material non-public information. Microchip does
not time, nor do we plan to time, the release of material non-public information for the purposes of affecting the value of
executive compensation. Our 2004 Equity Incentive Plan provides that the value of RSUs be the market closing price of our
stock on the grant date.
See the table under “Grants of Plan-Based Awards for Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2009” at page 29 for
information regarding RSUs granted during fiscal 2009 to our named executive officers.
Stock Ownership Guidelines For Key Employees And Directors. To help ensure alignment of the interests of our
management and Board of Directors with those of our stockholders, we have put in place a stock holding policy that applies to
each member of our management and Board of Directors. This policy was proposed by our Nominating and Governance
Committee and ratified by our Board of Directors at its October 24, 2003 meeting. Under this policy, effective April 1, 2004,
each of our directors, executive officers, vice presidents and internal director-level employees must maintain a specified
minimum level of ownership of our stock during their tenure in their respective office or position. During fiscal 2009, all
persons subject to this policy were in compliance with its terms.
Microchip does not permit executive officers to speculate in Microchip stock, which includes a prohibition on short
selling, buying and selling options (including writing covered calls) or hedging or any type of arrangement that has a similar
economic effect.
Other Compensation and Employee Benefits Generally Available to All Employees. We maintain compensation and
employee benefits that are generally available to all Microchip employees, including:
our employee stock purchase plan,
•
• medical, dental, vision, employee assistance program, flexible spending, and short- and long-term disability
insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance,
life insurance benefits,
a 401(k) retirement savings plan,
an employee cash bonus plan, and
vacation and paid time off.
•
•
•
•
Since these programs are generally available to all employees, these forms of compensation are not independently
evaluated by the Compensation Committee in connection with the annual determination of executive officer compensation.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Our 2001 Employee Stock Purchase Plan is a Section 423 qualified employee stock
purchase plan that allows all U.S. employees the opportunity to purchase our common stock through payroll deduction at 85%
of the fair market value at the lower of the price as of the opening of the two-year offering period or at the end of any six-
month purchase period. A significant portion of our international employees have the ability to participate in the 1994
International Employee Stock Purchase Plan that allows them the opportunity to purchase our common stock through payroll
deduction at 85% of the fair market value at the lower of the price as of the opening or the end of any six-month offering
period.
Medical, Dental, Vision, Employee Assistance Program, Flexible Spending, Alternative Health Care, Long-Term
Care, Legal Assistance, and Disability Coverage. We make medical, dental, vision, employee assistance program, flexible
spending, alternative health care, long term care, legal assistance, and disability coverage available to all of our U.S. employees
through our active benefit plans. Under these generally available plans, our named executives officers are eligible to receive
between $1,000 and $7,500 per month in long-term disability coverage depending on which plan they elect. Short-term
disability coverage is provided which allows for 100% of base salary to be paid for six months in the event of disability.
Accidental death and dismemberment insurance with a benefit of one times the executive’s annual salary is provided by
23
Microchip. Since all of our U.S. employees participate in this plan on a non-discriminatory basis, the value of these benefits to
our named executive officers is not required to be included in the Summary Compensation Table on page 27 pursuant to SEC
rules and regulations.
Life Insurance. In fiscal 2009, we provided life insurance coverage to our named executive officers in the amount up
to one and a half times the executive’s annual salary (up to a maximum of $500,000). The named executive officers may
purchase supplemental life insurance at their own expense.
401(k). We maintain a 401(k) plan for the benefit of all of our U.S. employees in order to allow our employees to
save for retirement. We contribute to our 401(k) plan each year based on our profitability during the year, subject to maximum
contributions and other rules prescribed by Federal law governing such plans. Our named executive officers are permitted to
participate in the plans to the same extent as our other U.S. employees. In light of the adverse global economic conditions
which impacted our business in fiscal 2009 and our resulting actions to significantly reduce our operating expenses, no
discretionary matching contributions were made for the third or fourth quarters of fiscal 2009, and we eliminated any required
matching contribution effective January 1, 2009.
Employee Cash Bonus Plan. All of our employees worldwide participate in our Employee Cash Bonus Plan. The
cash bonus plan can award each eligible employee with a target of two and one-half days of pay, calculated on base salary,
every quarter, if certain operating profitability objectives are achieved. The pay-out is adjusted based on actual quarterly
operating results. During fiscal 2009, bonus awards were paid out at 75% for the first quarter of fiscal 2009. There were no
bonus awards for the second, third and fourth quarters of 2009 due to the adverse economic conditions, the impact of such
conditions on our performance and our efforts to substantially reduce our operating expenses. Under such program, for fiscal
2009, our named executive officers received payments ranging from $998 to $3,857.
Vacation and Paid Time-Off Benefits. We provide vacation and other paid holidays to all of our employees, including
our named executive officers. We believe our vacation and holidays are comparable to others in the industry.
Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan. We maintain a non-qualified deferred compensation plan for certain
employees, including our named executive officers, who receive compensation in excess of the 401(k) contribution limits
imposed under the Internal Revenue Code and desire to defer more compensation than they would otherwise be permitted
under a tax-qualified retirement plan, such as our 401(k) plan. Microchip does not make contributions to this non-qualified
deferred compensation plan. This plan allows our executive officers to make pre-tax contributions to this plan which would be
fully taxed to the executive officers after the executive officer’s termination of employment with Microchip.
We do not have pension plans or other retirement plans for our named executive officers or our other U.S. employees.
Employment Contracts, Termination of Employment and Change of Control Arrangements We do not have
employment contracts with our CEO, CFO or any of our executive officers, nor agreements to pay severance on involuntary
termination (other than as stated in the change of control agreements below) or upon retirement. Our CEO, CFO, and our
executive officers have entered into change of control agreements with us.
These agreements were designed to help ensure the continued services of our key executive officers in the event that a
change of control of the company is effected, and to assist our key executive officers in transitioning from the company if as a
result of a change of control, they lose their positions. We believe that the benefits provided by these agreements help to
ensure that our management team will be incentivized to remain employed with Microchip during a change of control.
Capitalized terms used herein and not defined shall have the meanings set forth in the change of control agreements.
Additionally, our 2004 Equity Incentive Plan has a change of control provision which provides that any successor company
shall assume each outstanding award or provide an equivalent substitute award; however, if the successor fails to do so, vesting
of awards shall accelerate. The Compensation Committee considered prevalent market practices in determining the severance
amounts and the basis for selecting the events triggering payment in the agreements.
With respect to our CEO, CFO and VP of Worldwide Sales, if the executive officer’s employment terminates for
reasons other than Cause within the Change of Control Period, the executive officer will be entitled to receive severance
benefits consisting of the following primary components:
•
a one-time payment of his base salary in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control or termination
date, whichever is greater, for the following periods: (1) in the case of the CEO, two years; (2) in the case of
the CFO and the VP of Worldwide Sales, one year; and
24
•
•
•
a one-time payment of his bonuses for which he was or would have been eligible in the year in which the
Change of Control occurred or for the year in which termination occurred, whichever is greater, for the
following periods: (1) in the case of the CEO, two years; (2) in the case of the CFO and the VP of
Worldwide Sales, one year; and
a continuation of medical and dental benefits (subject to any required employee contributions) for the
following periods: (1) in the case of the CEO, two years; (2) in the case of the CFO and VP of Worldwide
Sales, one year; provided in each case that such benefits would cease sooner if and when the executive
officer becomes covered by the plans of another employer; and
a payment to cover any excise tax that may be due under Section 4999 of the Code, if the payments provided
for in the change of control agreement constitute “parachute payments” under Section 280G of the Code and
the value of such payments is more than three times the executive officer’s “base amount” as defined by
Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code.
With respect to our CEO, the CFO and the VP of Worldwide Sales, immediately prior to a Change of Control
(regardless of whether the executive officer’s employment terminates), all equity compensation held by the executive officer
shall become fully vested.
With respect to our executive officers other than the CEO, the CFO and the VP of Worldwide Sales, if the executive
officer terminates his employment for Good Reason, or the executive’s employment is terminated for reasons other than Cause
within the Change of Control Period, the executive officer will be entitled to receive severance benefits consisting of the
following primary components:
•
•
•
•
a one-time payment of his base salary in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control or termination
date, whichever is greater, for one year, and
a one-time payment of his bonuses for which he was or would have been eligible in the year in which the
Change of Control occurred or for the year in which termination occurred, whichever is greater, for one year,
and
a continuation of medical and dental benefits (subject to any required employee contributions) for one year
(provided in each case that such benefits would cease sooner if and when the executive officer becomes
covered by the plans of another employer), and
a payment to cover any excise tax that may be due under Section 4999 of the Code, if the payments provided
for in the change of control agreement constitute “parachute payments” under Section 280G of the Code and
the value of such payments is more that three times the executive officer’s “base amount” as defined by
Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code.
With respect to our executive officers other than the CEO, the CFO and the VP of Worldwide Sales, immediately
upon termination during the Change of Control Period other than for Cause, all equity compensation held by the executive
officer shall become fully vested.
The following table sets forth the aggregate dollar value of payments, to the extent calculable, in the event of a
termination of a named executive officer on March 31, 2009, the last business day of our last completed fiscal year.

(1) Mr. Parnell was a party to a change of control agreement which terminated effective December 31, 2008 in connection with
his stepping down from his position as VP and CFO in order to assume the role of VP, Business Development and Investor
Relations.
(2) This payment covers any excise tax that may be payable under Section 4999 of the Code if the payments provided for under
the change of control agreement constitute “parachute payments” under section 280G of the Code and the value of the
payments is more than three times the executive officer’s “base amount” as defined by Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code.
25
(3) Benefits continued under the change of control agreements are limited to company-paid medical, dental, vision and life
insurance coverage at the same level of coverage the executive was provided immediately prior to termination of
employment with Microchip. Amounts are not determinable at this time and are dependent on each executive officer’s
individual circumstances.
(4) The change of control payment includes an amount equal to twice the annual salary of the executive plus a bonus equal to
two times the targeted annual amount payable to such executive under our management incentive compensation plans and
employee cash bonus plan.
(5) The change of control payment includes an amount equal to one times the annual salary of the executive plus a bonus equal
to the targeted annual amounts payable to such executive under our management incentive compensation plans and
employee cash bonus plan.
Performance-Based Compensation and Financial Restatement
To date, Microchip has not experienced a financial restatement and has not considered or implemented a policy
regarding retroactive adjustments to any cash or equity-based incentive compensation paid to its executive officers and other
employees where such payments were predicated upon the achievement of certain financial results that would subsequently be
the subject of a restatement.
Tax Deductibility
Section 162(m) of the Code disallows a corporate income tax deduction for executive compensation paid to our named
executive officers in excess of $1,000,000 per year, unless that income meets permitted exceptions. In order to enhance our
ability to obtain tax deductions for executive compensation, our stockholders approved the EMICP at our 2006 annual meeting.
This allows us to seek to have such compensation under our EMICP qualify as performance-based compensation under Section
162(m). Additionally, our 2004 Equity Incentive Plan allows for the granting of performance-based awards such as RSUs. To
the extent that we grant awards with such performance-based limitations, we would expect them to qualify as performance-
based awards for purposes of 162(m).
To maintain flexibility in compensating Microchip’s executive officers in a manner designed to promote varying
corporate goals, it is not the policy of the Compensation Committee that executive compensation must be tax deductible. We
intend to review the deductibility of executive officer compensation from time to time to determine whether any additional
actions are advisable to obtain deductibility.
Conclusion
We believe that our executive team provided outstanding service to Microchip in fiscal 2009. We will work to assure
that the executive compensation programs continue to meet Microchip’s strategic goals as well as the overall objectives of the
compensation program.

(1) Individual awards under our EMICP are made quarterly and are not stated in terms of a threshold or maximum amount for an
award period. The EMICP does provide that the maximum amount payable to any participant is $2.5 million for any fiscal
year.
(2) Represents RSUs granted under Microchip’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan.
(3) This column shows the full grant date fair value of RSU awards under SFAS No. 123R granted to the named executives under
SFAS No. 123R in fiscal 2009. Generally, the full grant date fair value is the amount that Microchip would expense in its
financial statements over the award’s vesting schedule.
(4) The vesting of this grant was subject to achievement of performance goals which were not met, therefore these grants were
cancelled and will not vest.
(5) This annual target represents the percentage of the executive officer’s base salary reflected in dollar terms targeted under
Microchip’s EMICP.
(6) This annual target represents the percentage of the executive officer’s base salary reflected in dollar terms targeted under
Microchip’s DMICP.
(7) Microchip’s EMICP annual target is based on 2.5 days of base salary per quarter, or on an annual basis, two weeks of the
executive officer’s annual base salary.
Summary Compensation Table and Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table Discussion
Based on the data stated in the Summary Compensation Table, the level of salary, bonus and non-equity incentive
plan compensation in proportion to total compensation ranged from approximately 27% to 55% for the named executive
officers in fiscal 2009. See the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this proxy statement for further discussion
of overall compensation and how compensation is determined.
We do not have employment contracts with our named executive officers, nor agreements to pay severance on
involuntary termination (other than as stated in the change of control agreements discussed above under the heading
“Employment Contracts, Termination of Employment and Change of Control Arrangements”) or retirement.
For a discussion of the material terms of the awards listed in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table, see our
discussion of the equity awards and incentive cash bonuses in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this
proxy statement under the headings “Incentive Cash Bonus,” “Equity Compensation,” and “Cash Bonus Plan.”
Microchip has not repriced any stock options or made any material modifications to any equity-based awards during
the last fiscal year.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation for Fiscal Year 2009
All of our U.S. employees in director-level and above positions, including our executive officers, are eligible to defer a
portion of their salary and cash bonuses into our Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan, or the Deferred Compensation
Plan. Pursuant to the Deferred Compensation Plan, eligible employees can defer up to 50% of their base salary and/or cash
bonuses. In general, deferral elections are made prior to January of each year for amounts to be earned in the upcoming year.
Participants may invest amounts in various funds available under the Deferred Compensation Plan (in general, any of those
funds traded on a nationally recognized exchange). Plan earnings are calculated by reference to actual earnings of mutual funds
or other securities chosen by individual participants.
Except for a change in control or certain unforeseeable emergencies (as defined under the Deferred Compensation Plan),
benefits under the plan will not be distributed until a “distribution event” has occurred. The distribution event occurs
upon termination of employment.
We incur incidental expenses for administration of the Deferred Compensation Plan, and the receipt of any tax benefit
we might obtain based on payment of a participant’s compensation is delayed until funds (including earnings or losses on the
amounts invested pursuant to the plan) are eventually distributed. We do not pay any additional compensation or guarantee
minimum returns to any participant in the Deferred Compensation Plan.
The following table shows the non-qualified deferred compensation activity for each named executive officer for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2009.

Total
(1) Beginning January 1, 2005, the shares authorized for issuance under our 2001 Employee Stock Purchase Plan are
subject to an annual automatic increase of the lesser of (i) 1,500,000 shares, (ii) one-half of one percent (0.5%) of the
then outstanding shares of our common stock, or (iii) such lesser amount as is approved by our Board of Directors.
Beginning January 1, 2007, the shares authorized for issuance under our 1994 International Employee Stock Purchase
Plan, or the IESPP, are subject to an annual automatic increase of one-tenth of one percent (0.10%) of the then
outstanding shares of our common stock.
(2) Includes 3,603,210 shares issuable upon the vesting of RSUs granted under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan. The
remaining balance consists of outstanding stock option grants under various plans.

(3) The weighted average exercise price does not take into account the shares issuable upon vesting of outstanding RSUs,
which have no exercise price.
(4) Includes outstanding options to purchase an aggregate of 111,211 shares of our common stock assumed through our
acquisitions of TelCom Semiconductor, Inc. in January 2001, and PowerSmart, Inc. in June 2002. At March 31, 2009,
these assumed options had a weighted average exercise price of $20.60 per share. No additional options may be
granted under these plans.
Equity Compensation Plans Not Approved by Stockholders
Microchip Technology Incorporated 1997 Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan
In November 1997, our Board of Directors approved the Microchip 1997 Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan, or our
1997 Plan. Under our 1997 Plan, nonqualified stock options were granted to employees who were not officers or directors of
Microchip and to our consultants. The 1997 Plan was not submitted to our stockholders for approval because doing so was not
required under applicable rules and regulations in effect at the time the plan was initially adopted or when it was amended. As
of March 31, 2009, options to acquire 5,220,219 shares were outstanding under the 1997 Plan and no shares were available for
future grant because this plan was replaced with our 2004 Equity Incentive Plan for future grants.
The expiration date, maximum number of shares purchasable, and other provisions of options granted under the 1997
Plan, including vesting provisions, were established at the time of grant by either the Compensation Committee or the
Employee Committee appointed by the Board of Directors, provided that the exercise price of an option could not be less than
the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant and no option could have a term of more than 10 years. If
Microchip is acquired by merger, consolidation or asset sale, each outstanding option that is not assumed by the successor
corporation or otherwise replaced with a comparable option will automatically accelerate and vest in full. In connection with a
change of control of Microchip by tender offer or proxy contest for board membership, our Board of Directors can accelerate
the vesting of outstanding options. Our Board of Directors or Compensation Committee may amend or terminate the 1997
Plan without stockholder approval, but no amendment or termination of the 1997 Plan may adversely affect any award
previously granted under the 1997 Plan without the written consent of the stock option holder.
CODE OF ETHICS
On May 3, 2004, our Board of Directors adopted a code of ethics for our directors, officers (including our chief
executive officer and chief financial officer), and employees. A copy of the code of ethics is available on our website at the
Corporate/Investors section under Mission Statement/Corporate Governance on www.microchip.com.
We intend to post on our website any amendment to, or waiver from, a provision of our codes of ethics within four
business days following the date of such amendment or waiver or such other time period required by SEC rules.
Other Matters to be Presented at the Annual Meeting
OTHER MATTERS
At the date this proxy statement went to press, we did not anticipate that any other matters would be raised at the
annual meeting.
Requirements, Including Deadlines, for Receipt of Stockholder Proposals for the 2010 Annual Meeting of Stockholders;
Discretionary Authority to Vote on Stockholder Proposals
Under SEC rules, if a stockholder wants us to include a proposal in our proxy statement and form of proxy for the
2010 annual meeting, our Secretary must receive the proposal at our principal executive offices by March 12, 2010.
Stockholders interested in submitting such a proposal are advised to contact knowledgeable counsel with regard to the detailed
requirements of applicable securities laws. The submission of a stockholder proposal does not guarantee that it will be
included in our proxy statement.
40
Under our Bylaws, stockholders must follow certain procedures to nominate a person for election as a director or to
introduce an item of business at our annual meeting. Under these procedures, stockholders must submit the proposed nominee
or item of business by delivering a notice addressed to our Secretary at our principal executive offices. We must receive notice
as follows:
• Normally we must receive notice of a stockholder’s intention to introduce a nomination or proposed item of
business for an annual meeting not less than 90 days before the first anniversary of the date on which we first
mailed our proxy statement to stockholders in connection with the previous year’s annual meeting of
stockholders. Accordingly, a stockholder who intends to submit a nomination or proposal for our 2010
annual meeting must do so no later than April 11, 2010.
• However, if we hold our 2010 annual meeting on a date that is not within 30 days before or after the
anniversary date of our 2009 annual meeting, we must receive the notice no later than the close of business
on the later of the 90th day prior to our 2010 annual meeting or the 10th day following the day on which
public announcement of the date of such annual meeting is first made.
• A stockholder’s submission must include certain specified information concerning the proposal or nominee,
as the case may be, and information as to the stockholder’s ownership of our common stock. Proposals or
nominations not meeting these requirements will not be considered at our 2010 annual meeting.
•
If a stockholder does not comply with the requirements of this advance notice provision, the proxies may
exercise discretionary voting authority under proxies it solicits to vote in accordance with its best judgment
on any such proposal or nomination submitted by a stockholder.
To make any submission or to obtain additional information as to the proper form and content of submissions,
stockholders should contact our Secretary in writing at 2355 West Chandler Boulevard, Chandler, Arizona 85224-6199.
Householding of Annual Meeting Materials
Some brokers and other nominee record holders may be participating in the practice of “householding” proxy
statements and annual reports. This means that only one copy of our proxy statement and annual report may have been sent to
multiple stockholders in a stockholder’s household. Additionally, you may have notified us that multiple stockholders share an
address and thus you requested to receive only one copy of our proxy statement and annual report. While our proxy statement
and 2009 Annual Report are available online (see “Electronic Access to Proxy Statement and Annual Report” on page 2), we
will promptly deliver a separate copy of either document to any stockholder who contacts our investor relations department at
480-792-7761 or by mail addressed to Investor Relations, Microchip Technology Incorporated, 2355 West Chandler
Boulevard, Chandler, Arizona 85224-6199, requesting such copies. If a stockholder is receiving multiple copies of our proxy
statement and annual report at the stockholder’s household and would like to receive a single copy of the proxy statement and
annual report for a stockholder’s household in the future, stockholders should contact their broker, or other nominee record
holder to request mailing of a single copy of the proxy statement and annual report. Stockholders receiving multiple copies of
these documents directly from us, and who would like to receive single copies in the future, should contact our investor
relations department to make such a request.
Date of Proxy Statement
The date of this proxy statement is July 10, 2009.

subject to any outstanding options under the Company’s 1993 or 1997 Nonstatutory Stock Option Plans that subsequently

remaining issuable under the Plan as of the effective date and 30% of the Shares subsequently added to the Plan by virtue of

distribution under the Plan; provided, however, that if Shares of Restricted Stock, Performance Shares, Performance Units or
Deferred Stock Units are repurchased by the Company at their original purchase price or are forfeited to the Company, such
Shares shall become available for future grant under the Plan. Shares used to pay the exercise price or purchase price, if
applicable, of an Award shall become available for future grant or sale under the Plan. To the extent an Award under the Plan
is paid out in cash rather than stock, such cash payment shall not result in reducing the number of Shares available for issuance
under the Plan.

An Option shall be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (i) written or electronic notice of
exercise (in accordance with the Option Agreement) from the person entitled to exercise the Option, and (ii) full payment for
the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised. Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of
payment authorized by the Administrator and permitted by the Option Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of
an Option shall be issued in the name of the Participant or, if requested by the Participant, in the name of the Participant and his
or her spouse. Until the stock certificate evidencing such Shares is issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books
of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other
rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to the optioned stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company
shall issue (or cause to be issued) such stock certificate promptly after the Option is exercised. No adjustment will be made for

period of time as is specified in the Option Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of termination (but in
no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement). In the absence of a
specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for three (3) months following the Participant’s
termination. If, on the date of termination, the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the
unvested portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Participant does not exercise his or her Option
within the time specified by the Administrator, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall revert
to the Plan.

the Participant may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Option Agreement to the extent
the Option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth
in the Option Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for
six (6) months following the Participant’s termination. If, on the date of termination, the Participant is not vested as to his or
her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the

covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.
(i)

option be exercised later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement), by the personal
representative of the Participant’s estate, provided such representative has been designated prior to Participant’s death in a form
acceptable to the Administrator. If no such representative has been designated by the Participant, then such Option may be
exercised by the person(s) to whom the Option is transferred pursuant to the Participant’s will or in accordance with the laws of
descent and distribution. In the absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for
twelve (12) months following Participant’s death. If the Option is not so exercised within the time specified herein, the Option

have complete discretion to determine (i) the number of Shares subject to a Restricted Stock award granted to any Participant
(provided that during any Fiscal Year, no Participant shall be granted more than 300,000 Shares of Restricted Stock); provided,
however, that such limit shall be 750,000 Shares in the Participant’s first Fiscal Year of Company service, and (ii) the
conditions that must be satisfied, which typically will be based principally or solely on continued provision of services but may
include a performance-based component, upon which is conditioned the grant or vesting of Restricted Stock.
(b)
Restricted Stock Units. Restricted Stock may be granted in the form of Restricted Stock or units to
acquire Shares. Each such unit shall be the equivalent of one Share for purposes of determining the number of Shares subject
to an Award. With respect to the units to acquire Shares, until the Shares are issued, no right to vote or receive dividends or
any other rights as a stockholder shall exist.
(c)
Other Terms. The Administrator, subject to the provisions of the Plan, shall have complete
discretion to determine the terms and conditions of Restricted Stock granted under the Plan. Restricted Stock grants shall be

agreement that shall specify the purchase price (if any) and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole
discretion, shall determine; provided, however, that if the Restricted Stock grant has a purchase price, such purchase price must
be paid no more than ten (10) years following the date of grant.
(e)
Section 162(m) Performance Restrictions. For purposes of qualifying grants of Restricted Stock as
“performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Administrator, in its discretion, may set restrictions
based upon the achievement of Performance Goals. The Performance Goals shall be set by the Administrator on or before the
latest date permissible to enable the Restricted Stock to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of
the Code. In granting Restricted Stock which is intended to qualify under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Administrator shall
follow any procedures determined by it from time to time to be necessary or appropriate to ensure qualification of the
Restricted Stock under Section 162(m) of the Code (e.g., in determining the Performance Goals).

Performance Shares); provided, however, that such limit shall be 750,000 Shares in the Participant’s first Fiscal Year of
Company service, and (ii) the conditions that must be satisfied, which typically will be based principally or solely on
achievement of performance milestones but may include a service-based component, upon which is conditioned the grant or
vesting of Performance Shares. Performance Shares shall be granted in the form of units to acquire Shares. Each such unit
shall be the equivalent of one Share for purposes of determining the number of Shares subject to an Award. Until the Shares
are issued, no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to the units to
acquire Shares.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, Performance Units may be granted to Participants at any time and from time to
time as shall be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. The Administrator shall have complete discretion to
determine the conditions that must be satisfied, which typically will be based principally or solely on achievement of
performance milestones but may include a service-based component, upon which is conditioned the grant or vesting of

equivalent of one Share of Common Stock. No right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall

17.
Non-Employee Director Options.
(a)
Initial Grants. Each Non-Employee Director who first becomes a Non-Employee Director on or
after the date upon which the Plan is approved by the Company’s stockholders (excluding any Non-Employee Director who
previously served on the Board), shall be automatically granted (i) an Option grant covering 6,000 shares of Common Stock
(the “Initial Option Grant”), and (ii) that number of Restricted Stock Units equal to $60,000 divided by the Fair Market Value,
rounded down to the nearest whole Share (the “Initial RSU Grant”), as of the date that the individual first is appointed or
elected as a Non-Employee Director. The Initial Option Grant shall vest as to 1/48th of the Shares subject to the Initial Option
each month following the grant date, so as to be 100% vested on the four-year anniversary of the grant date. The Initial RSU
Grant will vest in equal 25% annual installments on each of the four anniversaries of the first business day of the second month
of the Company’s fiscal quarter in which the grant is made. All vesting of the Initial Option Grant and the Initial RSU Grant is
contingent upon the Non-Employee Director maintaining continued status as a Non-Employee Director through the applicable
vesting date.

Annual Grants. On the date of the Company’s annual stockholders’ meeting, each Non-Employee
Director who has served as a Non-Employee Director for at least three months on that date shall be automatically granted (i) an
Option grant covering 3,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Annual Option Grant”), and (ii) that number of Restricted Stock
Units equal to $30,000 divided by the Fair Market Value, rounded down to the nearest whole Share (the “Annual RSU Grant”),
provided that such Non-Employee Director has been elected by the stockholders to serve as a member of the Board at that

following the grant date, so as to be 100% vested on the anniversary of the grant date. The Annual RSU Grant will vest in
equal 50% annual installments on each of the two anniversaries of the first business day of the second month of the Company’s
fiscal quarter in which the grant is made. All vesting of the Annual Option Grant and the Annual RSU Grant is contingent

Director who has served as a Non-Employee Director for at least five years on that date shall be automatically granted a one-
time grant of that number of Restricted Stock Units equal to $100,000 divided by the Fair Market Value, rounded down to the
nearest whole Share, provided that such Non-Employee Director has been elected by the stockholders to serve as a member of
the Board at that annual meeting. The Restricted Stock Units subject to this grant will vest in equal 25% annual installments on
each of the four anniversaries of the first business day of the second month of the Company’s fiscal quarter in which the grant
is made. Vesting of the one-time grant is contingent upon the Non-Employee Director maintaining continued status as a Non-
Employee Director through the applicable vesting date.

sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or
distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the recipient, only by the recipient. If the Administrator makes an
Award transferable, such Award shall contain such additional terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate.
19.
Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization, Dissolution or Liquidation or Change of Control.
(a)
Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, the
number of shares of Common Stock covered by each outstanding Award, the number of shares of Common Stock which have
been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Awards have yet been granted or which have been returned to
the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an Award, as well as the price per share of Common Stock covered by each such
outstanding Award and the 162(m) fiscal year share issuance limits under Sections 6(c), 10(a) and 11(a) shall be
proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a stock
split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or
decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided,
however, that any such change in capitalization shall not affect the number of shares awarded under the automatic grants to
Non-Employee Directors described in Sections 17(a) and (b), and provided that conversion of any convertible securities of the
Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of consideration.” Such adjustment shall be made by the
Committee, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no
issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect,
and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject to
an Award.
(b)
Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company,
the Administrator shall notify each Participant as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction.
The Administrator in its discretion may provide for a Participant to have the right to exercise his or her Option or SAR until ten
(10) days prior to such transaction as to all of the Awarded Stock covered thereby, including Shares as to which the Award
would not otherwise be exercisable. In addition, the Administrator may provide that any Company repurchase option or
forfeiture rights applicable to any Award shall lapse 100%, and that any Award vesting shall accelerate 100%, provided the
proposed dissolution or liquidation takes place at the time and in the manner contemplated. To the extent it has not been
previously exercised (with respect to Options and SARs) or vested (with respect to other Awards), an Award will terminate
immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action.
(c)
Change of Control.
(1)
Stock Options and SARs. In the event of a Change of Control, each outstanding Option
and SAR shall be assumed or an equivalent option or SAR substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of
the successor corporation. In the event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the Option or SAR,
the Participant shall fully vest in and have the right to exercise the Option or SAR as to all of the Awarded Stock, including
Shares as to which it would not otherwise be vested or exercisable. If an Option or SAR becomes fully vested and exercisable
in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a Change of Control, the Administrator shall notify the Participant in
writing or electronically that the Option or SAR shall be fully vested and exercisable for a period of thirty (30) days from the
date of such notice, and the Option or SAR shall terminate upon the expiration of such period. For the purposes of this
paragraph, the Option or SAR shall be considered assumed if, following the Change of Control, the option or stock
appreciation right confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share of Awarded Stock subject to the Option or SAR
immediately prior to the Change of Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in
the Change of Control by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders
were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding
Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the Change of Control is not solely common stock of the
successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the
consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Option or SAR, for each Share of Awarded Stock subject to the Option or
SAR, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share
consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the Change of Control.
event of a Change of Control, each outstanding Restricted Stock, Performance Share, Performance Unit and Deferred Stock
Unit award shall be assumed or an equivalent Restricted Stock, Performance Share, Performance Unit and Deferred Stock Unit

Restricted Stock, Performance Shares, Performance Units and Deferred Stock Units. In the
A-12
award substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the event that the
successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the Restricted Stock, Performance Share, Performance Unit or
Deferred Stock Unit award, the Participant shall fully vest in the Restricted Stock, Performance Share, Performance Unit or
Deferred Stock Unit including as to Shares (or with respect to Performance Units, the cash equivalent thereof) which would not
otherwise be vested. For the purposes of this paragraph, a Restricted Stock, Performance Share, Performance Unit and
Deferred Stock Unit award shall be considered assumed if, following the Change of Control, the award confers the right to
purchase or receive, for each Share (or with respect to Performance Units, the cash equivalent thereof) subject to the Award
immediately prior to the Change of Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in
the Change of Control by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders
were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding
Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the Change of Control is not solely common stock of the
successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the
consideration to be received, for each Share and each unit/right to acquire a Share subject to the Award, to be solely common
stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of
Common Stock in the Change of Control.
20.
Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Award shall be, for all purposes, the date on which the Administrator
makes the determination granting such Award, or such other later date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the
determination shall be provided to each Participant within a reasonable time after the date of such grant.
21.
Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

(a)
Amendment and Termination. The Board may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the
(b)
Stockholder Approval. The Company shall obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to
the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Section 422 of the Code (or any successor rule or statute or other applicable
law, rule or regulation, including the requirements of any exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock is listed
or quoted). Such stockholder approval, if required, shall be obtained in such a manner and to such a degree as is required by
the applicable law, rule or regulation.
Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the
Plan shall impair the rights of any Participant, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Participant and the Administrator,
which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Participant and the Company.
(c)
22.
Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.
(a)
Legal Compliance. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Award unless the
exercise of the Award or the issuance and delivery of such Shares (or with respect to Performance Units, the cash equivalent
thereof) shall comply with Applicable Laws and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with
respect to such compliance.
(b)
Investment Representations. As a condition to the exercise or receipt of an Award, the Company
may require the person exercising or receiving such Award to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise or receipt
that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in
the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required.
23.
Liability of Company.
(a)
Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory
body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale
of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to
which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.
Grants Exceeding Allotted Shares. If the Awarded Stock covered by an Award exceeds, as of the
date of grant, the number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan without additional stockholder approval, such Award
(b)
A-13
shall be void with respect to such excess Awarded Stock, unless stockholder approval of an amendment sufficiently increasing
the number of Shares subject to the Plan is timely obtained in accordance with Section 21(b) of the Plan.
24.
Reservation of Shares. The Company, during the term of this Plan, will at all times reserve and keep
available such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (U.S.). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our
audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that
a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control
based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the
circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over
financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records
that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the
company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that
receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of
management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or
timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a
material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk
that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, Microchip Technology Incorporated maintained, in all material respects, effective internal
control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2009, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(U.S.), the March 31, 2009 consolidated financial statements of Microchip Technology Incorporated and our
report dated May 28, 2009 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
