This summary may not contain all of the information that may be important to
you. You should read this entire prospectus, including the financial data and
related notes, before making an investment decision.

                                    INTERSIL

     We are a systems oriented designer and manufacturer of analog and digital
integrated circuits and discrete semiconductors for the communications and power
management end-user markets.

     o Wireless--We are the industry leader in providing wireless local area
       networking semiconductor sets, which we refer to as our PRISM(R) chip
       set, based upon data published by Dataquest and Cahners In-Stat Group.
       The PRISM(R) chip set is our fastest growing product, which has
       applications in the wireless networking of voice, video and data for
       business and home and in transmitting data to and from broadband home
       data gateways to multiple end-user applications. The PRISM(R) chip set is
       also used to provide wireless connectivity to wired ethernet networks.

     o Analog & Mixed-Signal--Our analog and mixed-signal semiconductors are
       used in wireless and wired data and voice communications products. Our
       products include integrated circuits which perform multiple power
       management tasks, industry standard signal processing products that
       manage power in desktop and laptop computers and Internet servers, and a
       portfolio of standard analog products such as analog-to-digital and
       digital-to-analog converters.

     o Discrete Power--Our discrete semiconductors perform single power
       management functions such as switching electricity on or off or
       conditioning power used in communications, computing and automotive
       applications.

Business Strategy

     We provide systems level solutions for the growing integrated
communications semiconductor market. Integrated communications semiconductors
enable the convergence of voice, data and video. Within integrated
communications, we are focused on several key markets including high data rate
wireless connectivity, power management and wireless and wired communications
infrastructure. We use our expertise in digital and analog semiconductors and
radio and software design to deliver chip sets, components, software and
licensable application designs for communications equipment customers. For
fiscal year 2000, we allocated about 92% of our research and development
investment to the development of products for the integrated communications
market.

Sales and Manufacturing

     We currently sell to many industry leaders in our targeted markets
including Alcatel, Asustek, Cisco, Compaq, Dell, Ericsson, Hewlett-Packard,
Nokia, Siemens, Sony and 3Com. We have been doing business with many of these
industry leaders for more than ten years. No single customer represents more
than 5% of our total revenues. Our products are sold worldwide with about 49.2%,
22.0% and 28.8% of our revenues for fiscal year 2000 being derived from North
America, Europe and Asia/Pacific, respectively. We own wafer fabrication
facilities, which we refer to as fabs, that manufacture analog and discrete
semiconductors in Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania. We contract with key suppliers
that use sub-micron complementary metal oxide semiconductors, or CMOS, and
silicon germanium semiconductor wafer fabrication processes to produce
components of our PRISM(R) chip sets.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

     On September 26, 2000, we completed a underwritten registered public
offering for 12,650,000 shares of Class A Common Stock at a price of $48.00 per
share.

     On September 1, 2000, we entered into a binding letter of intent to acquire
the capital stock and related securities of SiCOM, Inc. in exchange for about
3.7 million shares of our Class A Common Stock. Based in Scottsdale, Arizona,
SiCOM is a fabless communications integrated circuit developer for fixed
broadband wireless infrastructure and access solutions. We believe SiCOM modems
will enable customers to maximize
<PAGE>
network capacity while minimizing total system cost. The shareholders of SiCOM
will enter into a lock-up agreement which will provide that the shares of our
Class A Common Stock held by them may not be disposed of for a period of 180
days after the close of the transaction. To secure us against undisclosed
liabilities and breaches of terms of the transaction agreement, ten percent of
the shares of Class A Common Stock will be held in escrow for one year after the
closing of the purchase. Subject to successful completion of our due diligence,
the escrow will be our exclusive remedy for any undisclosed liabilities or
breaches of the agreement. Our obligations to consummate the transaction will be
subject to reasonably satisfactory completion of our due diligence review of
SiCOM, including verification of its significant relationships and technology,
compliance with the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as
amended, and the satisfaction of other customary conditions. If we do not
consummate the purchase through no fault of SiCOM, we will pay to SiCOM cash in
an amount equal to about $5.4 million. SiCOM's revenue for calendar year 2000
will be less than one percent of our revenue and we do not expect this
acquisition to have a material effect on a pro forma basis on our historical
results of operations, exclusive of amortization of goodwill.

     In May 2000, we acquired No Wires Needed B.V., or NWN, in an all-stock
transaction. Based in Bilthoven, The Netherlands, NWN provides high performance
wireless-to-broadband access point reference designs. NWN combines the PRISM(R)
chip set with its own high data rate digital controller integrated circuit to
allow end users to wirelessly connect multiple computers and hand-held or
Internet appliances to a wired broadband network, NWN also provides wireless
encryption software which enhances the security of a wireless local area
network. We believe NWN's high data rate digital controller integrated circuit
will enhance the performance of future generations of our PRISM(R) chip set.

     In June 2000, we sold our assembly and test facilities in Malaysia to
ChipPAC, Inc. and entered into a multi-year supply agreement with ChipPAC under
which the Malaysian facility became our preferred provider of semiconductor
assembly and test services.

     Our principal executive office is located at 7585 Irvine Center Drive,
Suite 100, Irvine, California 92618, and our telephone number is (949) 341-7062.

from our predecessor's audited consolidated financial statements and from our
audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus.
The summary pro forma financial information for the combined fiscal year ended
June 30, 2000 (six weeks ended August 13, 1999 (Predecessor) and 46 weeks ended
June 30, 2000 (Successor), were derived from our pro forma unaudited
consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. The pro
forma adjustments give effect to the acquisition of the semiconductor business
of Harris and to our subsequent initial public offering as if they had occurred
on July 3, 1999.

     During the predecessor period covered by our consolidated financial
statements, our activities were conducted as part of Harris' overall operations.
Accordingly, our consolidated financial statements contain various allocations
for costs and expenses attributable to services provided by Harris. Therefore,
the Consolidated Statement of Operations may not be indicative of the results of
operations that would have resulted if we had operated on a stand-alone basis.

     Since the information in the tables below is a summary, you should read the
following tables in conjunction with other information contained under the
captions "Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Statement of Operations,"
"Capitalization," "Selected Historical Financial Data and Other Data,"
"Forward-Looking Statements," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations," and with our financial statements and
related notes and other financial information contained elsewhere in this
prospectus.

                                  RISK FACTORS

     You should carefully consider the risks described below before making an
investment decision. The risks described below are not the only ones facing our
company. Additional risks not now known to us or that we currently deem
immaterial may also impair our business operations.

FLUCTUATION OF OPERATING RESULTS--OUR FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS ARE LIKELY TO
FLUCTUATE AND THEREFORE MAY FAIL TO MEET EXPECTATIONS WHICH COULD CAUSE THE
PRICE OF THE CLASS A COMMON STOCK TO DECLINE.

     Our operating results have varied widely in the past and are likely to do
so in the future. In addition, our operating results may not follow any past
trends. Our future operating results will depend on many factors, many of which
are beyond our control, and may fail to meet our expectations for a number of
reasons, including those set forth in these risk factors. Any failure to meet
expectations could cause the price of the Class A Common Stock to significantly
fluctuate or decline.

     Factors that could cause our operating results to fluctuate that relate to
our internal operations include:

     o the need for continual, and rapid introductions of new products;

     o changes in our product mix;

     o our inability to adjust our fixed costs in the face of any declines in
       sales; and

     o the availability of production capacity and fluctuations in the
       manufacturing yields at our facilities.

     Factors that could cause our operating results to fluctuate that depend on
our suppliers and customers include:

     o the timing of significant product orders, order cancellations and
       reschedulings;

     o the availability of production capacity and fluctuations in the
       manufacturing yields at third parties' facilities that manufacture our
       devices; and

     o the cost of raw materials and manufacturing services from our suppliers.

     Factors that could cause our operating results to fluctuate that relate to
our industry include:

     o the cyclical nature of the semiconductor industry;

     o the new and evolving nature of the wireless local area network market and
       the possibility that wireless local area network technology may not be
       adopted on a widespread basis or may be replaced by a competing
       technology; and

     o intense competitive pricing pressures.

CYCLICAL INDUSTRY--DOWNTURNS IN THE BUSINESS CYCLE COULD REDUCE THE REVENUES AND
PROFITABILITY OF OUR BUSINESS.

     The semiconductor industry is highly cyclical. In 1998, the semiconductor
industry experienced a downturn. Our markets may experience other, possibly more
severe and prolonged, downturns in the future. We may also experience
significant changes in our operating income margins as a result of variations in
sales, changes in product mix, price competition for orders and costs associated
with the need for continual and rapid introduction of new products.

     The markets for our products depend on continued demand for integrated
communications, industrial, automotive and consumer electronics products. There
can be no assurance that these end-user markets will not experience changes in
demand that will adversely affect our business, financial conditions or results
of operations.

                                       7
<PAGE>
NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE--OUR INABILITY TO INTRODUCE NEW
PRODUCTS COULD RESULT IN DECREASED REVENUES AND LOSS OF MARKET SHARE TO
COMPETITORS; NEW TECHNOLOGIES COULD ALSO REDUCE THE DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS.

     Rapidly changing technology and industry standards, along with frequent new
product introductions, characterize the semiconductor industry. Our success in
our markets depends on our ability to design, develop, manufacture, assemble,
test, market and support new products and enhancements on a timely and
cost-effective basis. There can be no assurance that we will successfully
identify new product opportunities and develop and bring new products to market
in a timely and cost-effective manner or that products or technologies developed
by others will not render our products or technologies obsolete or
noncompetitive. A fundamental shift in technology in our product markets could
have a material adverse effect on us.

DEPENDENCE ON SOURCES OF SUPPLY--PRODUCTION TIME AND THE COST OF OUR PRODUCTS
COULD INCREASE IF WE WERE TO LOSE ONE OF OUR LIMITED NUMBER OF SUPPLIERS OR IF
ONE OF THOSE SUPPLIERS INCREASED THE PRICES OF RAW MATERIALS.

     Our operating results could be adversely affected if we were unable to
obtain adequate supplies of raw materials in a timely manner or if the costs of
raw materials increased significantly. Our manufacturing operations depend upon
obtaining adequate supplies of raw materials on a timely basis. We purchase raw
materials, such as silicon wafers, from a limited number of suppliers on a
just-in-time basis. From time to time, suppliers may extend lead times, limit
supplies or increase prices due to capacity constraints or other factors.

DEPENDENCE ON OUTSIDE FOUNDRIES--BECAUSE WE DEPEND ON THIRD PARTY FOUNDRIES TO
MANUFACTURE, ASSEMBLE AND TEST SOME OF OUR PRODUCTS, WE MAY EXPERIENCE DELAYS
BEYOND OUR CONTROL IN DELIVERING THOSE PRODUCTS TO OUR CUSTOMERS.

     We use outside wafer fabrication foundries for the manufacture of device
types where we do not have the necessary technologies resident in house. We also
use advanced manufacturing processes of outside foundries for certain components
of our PRISM(R) products. We intend to continue to rely on third party foundries
and other specialist suppliers for some of our manufacturing requirements and
most of our assembly and testing requirements. However, these third party
foundries are not obligated to supply products to us for any specific period, in
any specific quantity or at any specific price, except with respect to a five-
year supply aggrement with ChipPAC for test and assembly services and as may be
provided in a particular purchase order that has been accepted by one of them.
As a result, we cannot directly control semiconductor delivery schedules, which
could lead to product shortages, quality assurance problems and increases in the
cost of our products. We may experience delays in the future and we cannot be
sure that we will be able to obtain semiconductors within the time frames and in
the volumes required by us at an affordable cost or at all. Any disruption in
the availability of semiconductors or any problems associated with the delivery,
quality or cost of the fabrication, assembly and testing of our products could
significantly hinder our ability to deliver our products to our customers and
may result in a decrease in sales of our products. If the third party foundries
we currently use are unable to provide our products, we may be required to seek
new foundries, and we cannot be certain that their services will be available at
favorable terms or that sufficient capacity will be available.

     In addition, the manufacture of our products is a highly complex and
precise process, requiring production in a highly controlled environment.
Changes in manufacturing processes or the inadvertent use of defective or
contaminated materials by a third party foundry could adversely affect the
foundry's ability to achieve acceptable manufacturing yields and product
reliability. If the third party foundries we currently use do not achieve
adequate yields or product reliability, our customer relationships could suffer.
This could ultimately lead to a loss of sales of our products and have a
negative effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

DEPENDENCE ON CHIPPAC--BECAUSE WE DEPEND ON CHIPPAC TO PROVIDE US WITH ASSEMBLY
AND TEST SERVICES, WE MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED IF CHIPPAC FAILS TO PERFORM
ADEQUATELY.

     We depend on ChipPAC for the assembly and testing of most of our
semiconductors. In connection with the sale of our assembly and test facilities
in Malaysia to ChipPAC, we entered into a five-year supply

                                       8
<PAGE>
agreement with ChipPAC under which the Malaysian facility became our preferred
provider of semiconductor assembly and test services. Any disruption in the
availability of semiconductors associated with the assembly and testing of our
products by ChipPAC could significantly hinder our ability to deliver our
products to our customers and may result in a decrease in sales of our products.
In addition, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be
adversely affected if ChipPAC is unable to obtain adequate supplies of raw
material in a timely manner or if ChipPAC's costs of raw materials increase
significantly. See "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions."

MANUFACTURING RISKS--DELAYS IN PRODUCTION AT NEW FACILITIES, IN IMPLEMENTING NEW
PRODUCTION TECHNIQUES OR IN CURING PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH TECHNICAL EQUIPMENT
MALFUNCTIONS MAY LOWER YIELDS AND REDUCE OUR REVENUES.

     Our manufacturing processes are highly complex, require advanced and costly
equipment and are continuously being modified in an effort to improve yields and
product performance. Impurities or other difficulties in the manufacturing
process can lower yields. Our manufacturing efficiency will be an important
factor in our future profitability and we cannot assure you that we will be able
to maintain our manufacturing efficiency or increase manufacturing efficiency to
the same extent as our competitors.

     In addition, as is common in the semiconductor industry, we have from time
to time experienced difficulty in beginning production at new facilities or in
effecting transitions to new manufacturing processes. As a consequence, we have
suffered delays in product deliveries and reduced yields. We may experience
manufacturing problems in achieving acceptable yields or experience product
delivery delays in the future as a result of, among other things, capacity
constraints, construction delays, upgrading or expanding existing facilities or
changing our process technologies, any of which could result in a loss of future
revenues. Our operating results could also be adversely affected by the increase
in fixed costs and operating expenses related to increases in production
capacity if revenues do not increase proportionately.

CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDERS--A LIMITED NUMBER OF PERSONS INDIRECTLY CONTROL US AND
MAY EXERCISE THEIR CONTROL IN A MANNER ADVERSE TO YOUR INTERESTS.

     Following our completion of the public offering on September 20, 2000 and
the exercise of the over-allotment option on September 26, 2000, Sterling
Holding Company, LLC, or Sterling, and our directors and executive officers now
own approximately 15% of the outstanding Class A Common Stock, our only class of
voting stock, and about 89% of the outstanding Class B Common Stock, which is
convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis. By
virtue of this stock ownership, they may have the power to direct our affairs
and will be able to determine the outcome of all matters required to be
submitted to shareholders for approval, including the election of a majority of
our directors, any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of
our assets, and the amendment of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
Sterling also has a significant equity investment in Fairchild Semiconductor,
one of our competitors. An affiliate of Sterling is a principal shareholder of
ChipPAC. Because a limited number of persons control us, transactions could be
difficult or impossible to complete without the support of those persons. It is
possible that these persons will exercise control over us in a manner adverse to
your interests. See "Principal and Selling Shareholders."

COMPETITION--OUR BUSINESS IS VERY COMPETITIVE AND INCREASED COMPETITION COULD
REDUCE GROSS PROFIT MARGINS AND THE VALUE OF AN INVESTMENT IN OUR COMPANY.

     The semiconductor industry, and the semiconductor product markets
specifically, are highly competitive. Competition is based on price, product
performance, quality, reliability and customer service. The gross margins
realizable in our markets can differ across regions, depending on the economic
strength of end-product markets in those regions. Even in strong markets, price
pressures may emerge as competitors attempt to gain more market share by
lowering prices. Competition in the various markets in which we participate
comes from companies of various sizes, many of which are larger and have greater
financial and other resources than we have and thus can better withstand adverse
economic or market conditions. Competitors include manufacturers of standard
semiconductors, application-specific integrated circuits and fully customized
integrated circuits, as well as customers who develop their own integrated
circuit products. In

                                       9

addition, companies not currently in direct competition with us may introduce
competing products in the future.

RESTRICTIONS AND COVENANTS IN OUR DEBT INSTRUMENTS--RESTRICTIONS IMPOSED BY OUR
SENIOR CREDIT FACILITIES AND THE INDENTURE GOVERNING THE 13.25% SENIOR
SUBORDINATED NOTES DUE 2009, OR THE NOTES, MAY LIMIT INTERSIL'S ABILITY TO
ENGAGE IN OR ENTER INTO BUSINESS, OPERATING AND FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS, WHICH
COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF POTENTIALLY PROFITABLE
BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES.

     The operating and financial restrictions and covenants in our debt
instruments, including the senior credit facilities and the indenture governing
the 13.25% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2009, or the Notes, may adversely
affect our ability to finance our future operations or capital needs or engage
in other business activities that may be in our interest.

     Intersil's senior credit facilities require it to maintain certain
financial ratios which become more restrictive over time. Intersil's ability to
comply with these ratios may be affected by events beyond our control. A breach
of any of these covenants or Intersil's inability to comply with the required
financial ratios could result in a default under Intersil's senior credit
facilities. In the event of any of these defaults, the lenders under Intersil's
senior credit facilities could elect to declare all borrowings outstanding,
together with accrued interest and other fees, to be due and payable, to require
us to apply all of Intersil's available cash to repay these borrowings or to
prevent Intersil from making debt service payments on the notes, any of which
would be an event of default under the Notes. The indenture governing the Notes
restricts, among other things, the incurrence of additional debt, the payment of
dividends on the Class A Common Stock and other capital stock of Intersil
investments, sales of assets and certain consolidations, mergers and transfers
of assets. See "Description of Certain Indebtedness."

HOLDING COMPANY STRUCTURE--AS A HOLDING COMPANY, WE ARE TOTALLY DEPENDENT ON
DIVIDENDS FROM OUR OPERATING SUBSIDIARIES TO MEET OUR DEBT OBLIGATIONS OR,
SHOULD WE SO CHOOSE, PAY DIVIDENDS. TO THE EXTENT WE DO NOT RECEIVE DIVIDENDS
FROM INTERSIL, WE COULD HAVE DIFFICULTY SATISFYING OUR OBLIGATIONS.

     We are a holding company whose only material asset is the capital stock of
Intersil. We conduct no business (other than in connection with our ownership of
the capital stock of Intersil and certain other administrative obligations), and
depend on distributions from Intersil to meet our obligations. Because of
Intersil's ability to incur substantial indebtedness and our dependence upon the
operating performance of Intersil to generate distributions to us, there can be
no assurance that any of these distributions will be adequate to fund our
obligations when due. In addition, the senior credit facilities, the Notes and
applicable Federal and state law impose restrictions on the payment of dividends
and the making of loans by Intersil to us. As a result of the foregoing
restrictions, we may be required to:

     o refinance our indebtedness,

     o seek additional debt or equity financing,

     o cause Intersil to refinance all or a portion of its indebtedness with
       indebtedness containing covenants allowing us to gain access to
       Intersil's cash flow or assets,

     o cause Intersil to obtain modifications of the covenants restricting our
       access to cash flow or assets of Intersil contained in Intersil's
       financing documents including, without limitation, the senior credit
       facilities and the indentures governing the Notes:

     o merge Intersil with us, which merger would be subject to compliance with
       applicable debt covenants and the consents of certain lenders; or

     o pursue a combination of the foregoing actions.

     The measures we may undertake to gain access to sufficient cash flow to
meet our future debt service requirements will depend on general economic and
financial market conditions, as well as our financial condition and the
financial condition of Intersil and other relevant factors existing at the time.
No assurance

                                       10
<PAGE>
can be given that any of the foregoing measures can be accomplished, and the
failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on the value of the Class
A Common Stock.

CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATE FLUCTUATIONS--FLUCTUATIONS IN THE EXCHANGE RATE OF THE
U.S. DOLLAR AND OTHER FOREIGN CURRENCIES COULD INCREASE OPERATING EXPENSES AND
NEGATIVELY AFFECT OUR FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

     While we and our subsidiaries transact business primarily in U.S. dollars
and most of our revenues are denominated in U.S. dollars, a portion of our costs
and revenues is denominated in other currencies, such as the Euro and the
Japanese Yen. As a result, changes in the exchange rates of these currencies or
any other applicable currencies to the U.S. dollar will affect our costs of
goods sold and operating margins and could result in exchange losses. The impact
of future exchange rate fluctuations on our results of operations cannot be
accurately predicted. From time to time, we have engaged in, and may continue to
engage in, exchange rate hedging activities in an effort to mitigate the impact
of exchange rate fluctuations. However, any hedging technique that we may
implement may not be effective or may result in foreign exchange hedging losses.
In the past, we have incurred foreign exchange hedging losses, including
$13.3 million during fiscal year 1998 and $11.4 million during fiscal year 1999.
In fiscal year 2000, foreign exchange hedging resulted in a gain of $3.9
million.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS--OUR INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS
SUBJECT US TO RISKS NOT FACED BY DOMESTIC COMPETITORS WHICH INCLUDE UNFAVORABLE
POLITICAL, REGULATORY, LABOR AND TAX CONDITIONS IN OTHER COUNTRIES.

     We cannot be certain to what extent our future operations and earnings may
be adversely affected by the risks related to, or any other problems arising
from, operating in international markets. We generate approximately one-half of
our revenue from outside the United States. Risks inherent in doing business on
an international level include:

     o economic and political instability;

     o trade restrictions;

     o foreign currency fluctuations; and

     o unexpected changes in the laws and policies of the United States and of
       the countries in which we manufacture and sell our products.

DEPENDENCE ON INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY--WE USE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF INTELLECTUAL
PROPERTY IN OUR BUSINESS. IF WE ARE UNABLE TO PROTECT THIS INTELLECTUAL
PROPERTY, WE COULD LOSE OUR RIGHT TO EXCLUSIVE USE OF KEY TECHNOLOGY, RESULTING
IN DECREASED REVENUES.

     Our future success and competitive position depend in part upon our ability
to obtain and maintain proprietary technology used in our principal products. We
rely on intellectual property rights, including, but not limited to, rights
existing under patent, trade secret, trademark, maskwork and copyright law, to
protect this technology. Some of our technology is not covered by any patent or
patent application, and there are risks that:

     o some of the approximately 1,250 patents that we own and other patents
       that we license from Harris may be invalidated, circumvented, challenged
       or licensed to others;

     o the license rights granted by Harris, or the patents that we own, will
       not provide competitive advantages to us; or

     o some of our pending or future patent applications will not be issued
       within the scope of the claims sought by us, if at all.

Further, others may develop technologies that are similar or superior to our
technology, duplicate our technology or design around our patents. In addition,
effective patent, trademark, copyright, maskwork and trade secret protection may
be unavailable, limited or not applied for in certain foreign countries.

                                       11
<PAGE>
     We also seek to protect our proprietary technology, including technology
that may not be patented or patentable, in part by confidentiality agreements
and, if applicable, inventors' rights agreements with our collaborators,
advisors, employees and consultants. There can be no assurance that these
agreements will not be breached or that we will have adequate remedies for any
breach.

     Some of our current licenses to use others' technology are scheduled to
expire periodically over the next several years, unless extended. In particular,
we have access to a portfolio of patents under cross-license agreements that
begin to expire in December of the year 2000. We will need to negotiate renewals
of these agreements or obtain the technology from alternative sources. There is
no guarantee that we will be able to obtain renewals on substantially similar
terms as those that currently exist.

DEPENDENCE ON INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY ACQUIRED FROM HARRIS--WE HAVE ACQUIRED
SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY FROM HARRIS. TO THE EXTENT OUR
USE OF THIS INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGES THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF
OTHERS, WE MAY BE REQUIRED TO CEASE OUR USE OR SALE OF AFFECTED PRODUCTS.

     Under our intellectual property agreement with Harris, Harris has limited,
royalty-free, worldwide, nonexclusive license rights (without right to
sublicense) to some of our technology. Under our patent assignment and services
agreements with Harris, Harris will retain the ownership and rights to certain
patents until August 13, 2002 after which time the patents will be assigned to
us, provided the patents are not the subject of litigation at that time, and
with the provision that any binding obligations on third parties to make royalty
or other payments respecting the patents will be retained by Harris.
Furthermore, the license agreements under which third parties are licensed to
use our intellectual property (or intellectual property that is assigned to us)
and under which Harris is cross-licensed to the third party's intellectual
property, may not be assignable to us. For this situation, Harris agreed to
partially indemnify us for limited periods in limited situations against claims
that our activities infringe upon the intellectual property rights of others.
The extent and duration of this indemnification may be insufficient to shield us
from the need to make monetary payments to third parties or to facilitate the
continued manufacture, use or sale of some affected products.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY UPON WHICH WE RELY MAY INFRINGE ON OTHER PARTIES'
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS--WE MAY HAVE TO PAY OTHERS FOR INFRINGING THEIR
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OR DEFEND OURSELVES IN A LITIGATION, RESULTING IN
SIGNIFICANT EXPENSE TO US.

     Vigorous protection and pursuit of intellectual property rights or
positions characterize the semiconductor industry. This vigor and pursuit have
resulted in significant and often protracted and expensive litigation. We may
from time to time be notified of claims that we may be infringing third party
patents or other intellectual property rights. A countersuit has been brought
against Harris by Ericsson, one of its competitors and one of our customers,
alleging infringement by Harris of four of Ericsson's patents relating to
telephone subscriber line interface circuits. We have been joined as a defendant
in this action. Because this litigation was filed prior to our acquisition of
the semiconductor business of Harris, we believe our liability from this
litigation, is covered by Harris' agreement to provide us with limited
indemnities. We do not believe that this litigation will have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. It is
still possible, however, that this litigation will be resolved in a manner that
is materially adverse to us.

     If necessary or desirable, we may, from time to time, seek licenses to
patents or other intellectual property rights. However, we cannot be certain
that we will obtain these licenses or that the terms of any offered licenses
will be acceptable to us, and any acquisition or license could require
expenditure of substantial time and other resources. Furthermore, some licenses
or other rights to intellectual property of third parties that we use, such as
software, may not be freely assignable by Harris to us. Our failure to obtain a
license from a third party for technology we use could cause us to incur
substantial liabilities and to suspend the manufacture or shipment of products
or our use of processes requiring the technology. Litigation could result in
significant expense to us, adversely affecting sales of the challenged product
or technology and diverting the efforts of our technical and management
personnel, whether or not the litigation is determined in our favor. In the
event of an adverse outcome in any litigation, we may be required to:

     o pay substantial damages and incur significant attorneys' fees;

     o cease the manufacture, use, sale or importation of infringing products;

     o expend significant resources to develop or acquire non-infringing
       technology;

                                       12
<PAGE>
     o discontinue the use of some processes; or

     o obtain licenses to intellectual property covering the infringing
       technology.

ADDITIONAL BORROWINGS AVAILABLE--WE AND OUR SUBSIDIARIES WILL BE ABLE TO INCUR
SUBSTANTIALLY MORE DEBT, WHICH COULD FURTHER EXACERBATE THE RISKS DESCRIBED
BELOW.

     We and our subsidiaries may be able to incur substantial additional
indebtedness in the future. Although the indenture governing the Notes contains
restrictions on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, these restrictions
are subject to a number of qualifications and exceptions and the indebtedness
incurred in compliance with these restrictions could be substantial. Also, these
restrictions do not prevent us from incurring obligations that do not constitute
indebtedness. As of June 30, 2000, Intersil's senior credit facilities provided
for additional borrowings of up to $70.0 million, all of which would be
permitted under the indenture governing the Notes. To the extent new debt is
added to our and our subsidiaries' currently anticipated debt levels, it could:

     o require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from
       operations to payments on our indebtedness, thereby reducing the
       availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital
       expenditures, research and development efforts and other general
       corporate purposes;

     o increase our vulnerability to adverse general economic or industry
       conditions;

     o limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our
       business or the industry in which we operate;

     o prevent us from raising the funds necessary to repurchase all the Notes
       tendered to us upon the occurrence of certain changes of control in our
       ownership, which would constitute a default under the indenture governing
       the Notes; and

     o place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that
       have less debt.

     See "Capitalization," "Selected Historical Financial Data and Other Data"
and "Description of Certain Indebtedness."

RISKS RELATING TO FUTURE ACQUISITIONS--WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CONSUMMATE FUTURE
ACQUISITIONS, AND THOSE ACQUISITIONS WHICH WE DO COMPLETE MAY BE DIFFICULT TO
INTEGRATE AND RESULT IN INCREASED DEBT AND LIABILITIES.

     We plan to pursue acquisitions of related businesses in the near future,
including the acquisition of SiCOM discussed elsewhere in this prospectus. We
might not be able to consummate acquisitions, or, if we complete any
acquisition, we may not realize any of the benefits anticipated from these
acquisitions. Financing for acquisitions may not be available and, depending on
the terms of these acquisitions, financing could be restricted by the terms of
our senior credit facilities and the indenture governing Notes. The process of
integrating acquired operations into our existing operations may result in
unforeseen operating difficulties and may require significant financial
resources that would otherwise be available for the ongoing development or
expansion of our existing operations. Possible future acquisitions could result
in the incurrence of additional debt, contingent liabilities and amortization
expenses related to goodwill and other intangible assets, all of which could
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results
of operations.

     We have entered into a letter of intent to acquire SiCOM. Because of the
preliminary nature of this agreement, we cannot assure you that this transaction
will be completed or will be completed on the terms described in this
prospectus. We may be unable or choose not to enter into a definitive agreement
regarding this acquisition or, if such a definitive agreement is reached, may
not be able to satisfy the various conditions that such an agreement will likely
contain.

ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES AND OTHER GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS--REGULATORY MATTERS
COULD FORCE US EXPEND SIGNIFICANT CAPITAL AND INCUR SUBSTANTIAL COSTS.

     We are subject to various environmental laws relating to the management,
disposal and remediation of hazardous materials and the discharge of pollutants
into the environment. We are also subject to laws relating to workplace safety
and worker health which, among other things, regulate employee exposure to
hazardous substances. Harris agreed to indemnify us for substantially all
environmental liabilities in excess of financial

                                       13
<PAGE>
reserve amounts related to events or activities occurring before our acquisition
of the semiconductor business. The nature of our ongoing operations exposes us
to the risk of liabilities with respect to environmental matters, including
those relating to the on- and off-site disposal and release of hazardous
materials, and there can be no assurance that material costs will not be
incurred in connection with such liabilities.

     Based on our experience, we believe that the future cost of compliance with
existing environmental and health and safety laws (and liability for known
environmental conditions even without the Harris indemnity) will not have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of
operations. However, we cannot predict:

     o what environmental or health and safety legislation or regulations will
       be enacted in the future;

     o how existing or future laws or regulations will be enforced, administered
       or interpreted; or

     o the amount of future expenditures which may be required to comply with
       these environmental or health and safety laws or regulations or to
       respond to future cleanup matters or other environmental claims.

     See "Business--Environmental Matters."

RISKS RELATING TO FUTURE SALES OF OUR SHARES--ALL OF OUR OUTSTANDING SHARES OF
COMMON STOCK MAY BE SOLD INTO THE MARKET IN THE NEAR FUTURE, AND FUTURE SALES OF
THOSE SHARES COULD DEPRESS THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR CLASS A COMMON STOCK.

     Following the underwritten public offering on September 20, 2000 and the
exercise of the over-allotment option by the underwriters on September 26, 2000,
the public market for our Class A Common Stock includes 41,904,405 shares of
freely tradable Class A Common Stock. There will be an additional 17,773,206
shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding and 41,738,580 shares of Class B
Common Stock outstanding, which are convertible into shares of Class A Common
Stock on a one-for-one basis, which are not now freely tradable. See "Shares
Eligible for Future Resale."

     Our directors, executive officers and various shareholders have entered
into lock-up agreements which generally provide that these holders will not
offer, sell, contract to sell, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose
of our common stock or any securities exercisable for or convertible into our
common stock owned by them before December 15, 2000 without the prior written
consent of Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation. In addition, shareholders who
received our common stock in the acquisition of NWN have entered into lock-up
agreements which restrict the disposition of 131,844 sharess of common stock and
79,106 shares of common stock prior to August 23, 2001 and August 23, 2002,
respectively.

     Warrants issued in connection with the Notes that initially entitle their
holders to acquire in the aggregate 3,703,707 shares of Class A Common Stock are
exercisable. We have filed a shelf registration statement to cover the warrants
for resale and the issuance of the Class A Common Stock upon exercise of these
warrants. This registration statement has been declared effective by the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission. Any common stock issued in connection with
these warrants will be freely tradable in the open market. Unless earlier
exercised, these warrants will expire on August 15, 2009.

     Some of our existing shareholders have the right to cause us to register
the sale of their shares under the Securities Act and some other current
shareholders may have the right to cause us to register their shares for resale
if we choose to file a registration statement. Registration of the sale of these
shares of our common stock would permit their sale into the market without
regard to the legal restrictions on transfer mentioned above. If our existing
shareholders sell a large number of shares, the market price of the Class A
Common Stock could decline, as these sales may be viewed by the public as an
indication of an upcoming or recently occurring shortfall in our financial
performance. Moreover, the perception in the public market that these
shareholders might sell shares of Class A Common Stock could depress the market
price of the Class A Common Stock.

     We filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on April 18, 2000 under which we registered 4,000,000 shares of our
Class A Common Stock for issuance in connection with future acquisitions. We
issued 3,026,559 shares of Class A Common Stock under this registration
statement in connection with our acquisition of NWN and also issued immediately
exercisable options to acquire 323,493 shares of our common stock. The issuance
of shares upon exercise of these options is registered under a registration
statement. Any shares issued pursuant to this registration statement will be
freely tradable without restriction under the Securities Act and will result in
dilution to our existing shareholders. See "Shares Eligible for Future Sale."

changes in technology and the development of new technology; foreign currency
fluctuations; reductions in sales to any significant customers; changes in sales
mix; industry capacity; competition; disruptions of established supply channels;
manufacturing capacity constraints; and the availability, terms and deployment
of capital. Our risks are more specifically described in the "Risk Factors"
section of this prospectus. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties
materialize, or if underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results
may vary materially from those expected, estimated or projected.

     We do not undertake to update our forward-looking statements or risk
factors to reflect future events or circumstances.

                                USE OF PROCEEDS

     We will not receive any proceeds of this offering other than the value of
the businesses or properties we or our subsidiaries acquire in the proposed
acquisitions.

                                DIVIDEND POLICY

     We have never paid a cash dividend and do not anticipate declaring or
paying any cash dividends on shares of our common stock in the foreseeable
future. In addition, any determination to declare and pay dividends will be made
by our board of directors in light of our earnings, financial position, capital
requirements, contractual limitations contained in our debt instruments and such
other factors as the board of directors deems relevant. See "Description of
Certain Indebtedness" and "Description of Capital Stock."

                          PRICE RANGE OF COMMON STOCK

     Our Class A Common Stock has been traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market's
National Market since February 23, 2000 under the symbol "ISIL." Prior to that
time, there was no public market for our common stock, and there is currently no
public market for our Class B Common Stock. The following table sets forth, for
the periods indicated, the high and low closing prices per share of our Class A
Common Stock as reported in composite Nasdaq Stock Market trading.

         UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS

     The following Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Statement of
Operations (six weeks ended August 13, 1999 (Predecessor) and 46 weeks ended
June 30, 2000 (Successor)) are based on or derived from historical Consolidated
Financial Statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. The acquisition of
the semiconductor business of Harris was consummated on August 13, 1999.

     The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Statement of Operations gives
effect to the transactions as if they had occurred on July 3, 1999. The
transactions and the related adjustments are described in the accompanying
notes. The pro forma statement of operations does not purport to represent what
our results of operations would actually have been had the transactions in fact
occurred on July 3, 1999 nor do they purport to project the results of
operations for any future period.

     The acquisition of the semiconductor business has been accounted for using
the purchase method of accounting. After the acquisition of the semiconductor
business, the total purchase price of the acquisition was allocated to the
tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of the semiconductor business
based upon their respective fair values. In the opinion of our management, all
adjustments that are necessary to present fairly the pro forma data have been
made.

     The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Statement of Operations should
be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes
thereto as of June 30, 2000 and July 2, 1999 and for the fiscal year ended July
2, 1999, the six weeks ended August 13, 1999, and the 46 weeks ended June 30,
2000, included elsewhere in this prospectus. See "Forward-Looking Statements"
and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations."

    NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS

     The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations give effect
to the following adjustments:

(a)  The total purchase price of $614.3 million was allocated to the assets and
     liabilities of the semiconductor business based upon their approximate fair
     value. The fair value of the net assets acquired exceeded the purchase
     price resulting in negative goodwill. This negative goodwill was allocated
     to property and equipment and identified intangible assets based on their
     relative fair value as follows:

    As a result of the allocation of negative goodwill to property and
    equipment, the net book carrying value at August 13, 1999 of $403.7 million
    was reduced by $75.9 million to the fair value of $327.8 million. Therefore,
    for pro forma purposes, depreciation expense was reduced by $1.7 million,
    for the six weeks ended August 13, 1999, respectively.

(b)  Historically, Harris allocated corporate headquarters expenses to the
     semiconductor business based on the semiconductor business' net sales as a
     percentage of Harris' net sales. This pro forma adjustment represents the
     elimination of this allocation and our estimate of the cost of replacing
     these services as a stand-alone company, calculated as follows:

          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the Consolidated Financial Statements,
including the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. Except for
historical information, the discussions in this section of the prospectus
contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual
results could differ materially from those discussed below.

OVERVIEW

     We are a systems oriented designer and manufacturer of analog and digital
integrated circuits and discrete semiconductors for the communications and power
management end-user. We provide systems level solutions for the growing
integrated semiconductor market. Integrated communications semiconductors enable
the convergence of voice, data and video. Within integrated communications, we
are focused on several key markets including high data rate wireless
connectivity, power management and wireless and wired communications
infrastructure. We use our expertise in digital and analogue semiconductors and
radio and software design to deliver chip sets, component software and
licensable applicable designs for communications equipment customers. We sell
over 4,500 products to more than 28,000 customers worldwide.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     We were formed on August 13, 1999 through a series of transactions, in
which we and our wholly-owned subsidiary, Intersil, acquired the semiconductor
business of Harris. Intersil and its wholly-owned domestic and foreign
subsidiaries include the operations of the predecessor. Our fiscal year 2000
began on July 3, 1999 and ended on June 30, 2000.

     The total purchase price of the semiconductor business acquisition was
$614.3 million, which included transaction costs of approximately $7.8 million
and deferred financing costs of $12.2 million. The consideration paid by
Intersil Holding was $504.3 million in cash of which $420.0 million was financed
through borrowings from the senior credit facilities, the 13.25% Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2009 and 13.50% Subordinated Holding "Pay-In-Kind" (PIK)
Note and the issuance of a $90.0 million 11.13% PIK Note to Harris.

     The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting
and accordingly, the operating results of the semiconductor business have been
included in Intersil's consolidated financial statements since the date of
acquisition. The total purchase price was allocated to the assets and
liabilities of the semiconductor business based upon their approximate fair
value. The fair value of the net assets acquired exceeded the purchase price
resulting in negative goodwill of $200.0 million. This negative goodwill was
allocated to the identified intangibles and property and equipment based on
their relative fair values. The most significant effects were to decrease
property, plant and equipment and to increase certain intangibles and
liabilities. Accordingly, certain financial information for the periods prior to
August 13, 1999 is not comparable to periods subsequent to August 13, 1999. All
statement of operations information for fiscal year 2000 represents the combined
results of the semiconductor business from July 3, 1999 through August 13, 1999
and Intersil Holding from August 14, 1999 through December 31, 1999.

     On February 25, 2000, we issued 22,000,000 shares of our Class A Common
Stock in a registered underwritten initial public offering at a price of $25.00
per share and on September 20, 2000, we issued 3,000,000 shares of our Class A
Common Stock in a registered underwritten public offering at a price of $48.00
per share. On September 26, 2000, we issued an additional 500,000 shares of our
Class A Common Stock at a price of $48.00 per share upon the exercise of the
over-allotment option by the underwriters pursuant to the registered public
offering on September 20, 2000. See "-- Liquidity and Capital Resources."

</TABLE>

     Historically, our first fiscal quarter has been the weakest due to model
year changeovers in the automotive industry and summer holiday seasons,
primarily in Europe. Our increasing focus on integrated communications products
has resulted in a higher percentage of our sales coming from the communications
markets in the second half of our fiscal year. Revenues from integrated
communications products accounted for 53.1% of our total fourth quarter fiscal
year 2000 sales versus 39.1% of our total fourth quarter fiscal year 1999 sales.
Sales made into the communications market generally experience less seasonality
than sales of our historical mix of products.

     The semiconductor industry has historically experienced declining selling
prices over the past 15 years, and we expect that trend to continue in the
future. We expect to realize productivity gains which will offset the decline in
average selling prices and therefore we do not anticipate a significant adverse
effect on our financial condition.

     Industry demand weakened significantly in the first half of fiscal 1999 due
to widespread inventory adjustments which led to excess manufacturing capacity
and steep declines in product prices. This trend affected all three of our
product groups. Our results, and those of the industry as a whole, began to
strengthen in the third fiscal quarter of 1999, with an increase in sales of
9.1% from the second quarter to the third quarter and 11.3% from the third
quarter to the fourth quarter. We experienced sales growth of over 25% in each
of the last three fiscal quarters of 2000 as compared to the same periods in
fiscal year 1999 due to increased demand for our communication products and an
overall improvement in market conditions. Additionally, the introduction of our
new PRISM II wireless product has accelerated growth in the Wireless product
group.

</TABLE>

FISCAL YEAR 2000 COMPARED WITH FISCAL YEAR 1999

  Revenue

     Revenue for fiscal year 2000 increased 22.8% to $654.2 million from $532.7
million in fiscal year 1999. This growth is the result of increased demand for
communications products and overall improved market conditions. Wireless sales
growth of 181% was driven by increased market acceptance of our
PRISM(R) products.

     Geographically, 49.2%, 22.0% and 28.8% of product sales were derived in
North America, Europe and Asia/Pacific, respectively, during fiscal year 2000,
compared to 53.5%, 24.6% and 21.9% respectively, in fiscal year 1999. This
change in mix is the result of increased demand from Asian-based customers and
from other customers moving from manufacturing facilities to Asia.

  Gross Margin

     Cost of goods sold consists primarily of purchased materials, labor and
overhead (including depreciation) associated with product manufacturing, plus
royalty, warranty and sustaining engineering expenses pertaining to products
sold. Gross margin on product sales increased 43.2% to $262.0 million in fiscal
year 2000 from $182.9 million in fiscal year 1999. As a percentage of sales,
gross margin was 40.0% in fiscal year 2000 as compared to 34.3% in fiscal year
1999. This increase was primarily due to increased capacity utilization in all
three fabrication facilities, improved product costs from yield enhancements and
manufacturing cost improvement projects. Additionally, wireless products, which
generally carry higher margins, increased as a

                                       23
<PAGE>
percentage of our total sales. Headcount reductions and a decrease in
depreciation expense resulting from a revaluation of our property and equipment
due to purchase accounting also contributed to the margin improvement.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ("R&D")

     R&D expenses consist primarily of salaries and selected costs of employees
engaged in product/process research, design and development activities, as well
as related subcontracting activities, prototype development, cost of design
tools and technology license agreement expenses. R&D expenses increased 16.4% to
$78.0 million in fiscal year 2000 from $67.0 million in fiscal year 1999. The
increase was the result of our continued investment in PRISM(R) chip sets and in
power management integrated circuits, focusing in the categories of
communications and computing products. As a percentage of sales, R&D expenses
declined slightly to 11.9% in fiscal year 2000 from 12.6% in fiscal year 1999.

  In-Process R&D Charge

     In connection with the acquisition of the semiconductor business of Harris,
we allocated $20.2 million of the purchase price to in-process R&D projects.
These projects were in various stages of completion ranging from 35-90%
completion. The present value of $29.0 million of in-process R&D was primarily
determined by discounting 10 year after tax cash flow projections of the
individual projects using a discount rate of 20%. This value was then reduced by
negative goodwill resulting from the acquisition.

     At the date of acquisition, the development of these projects had not yet
reached technological feasibility and the in-process R&D had no alternative
future uses. Accordingly, these costs were expensed as a one-time charge to
earnings in the combined fiscal year ended June 30, 2000.

     There is risk associated with the completion of the projects and there can
be no assurance that any will meet with either technological or commercial
success. Discussion of certain of the acquired projects can be found in the
Products and Technology portion of the Business section located elsewhere in
this prospectus.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE ("SG&A")

     SG&A costs, which include marketing, selling, general and administrative
expenses, increased 17.1% to $109.3 million in fiscal year 2000 from $93.3
million in fiscal year 1999. The increase was due to additional selling costs
resulting from higher sales in fiscal year 2000 and additional marketing costs
associated with our new company branding initiative. Operating expenses include
charges allocated by Harris to us for legal, financial and other administrative
expenses of $1.2 million for the six weeks ended August 13, 1999, and $9.3
million for the twelve months ended July 2, 1999. As a percentage of sales, SG&A
costs decreased to 16.7% in fiscal year 2000 from 17.5% in fiscal year 1999.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

     Certain intangible assets were recorded on the opening balance sheet of
Intersil as part of purchase accounting. We also recorded goodwill in June 2000
as a result of the acquisition of No Wires Needed B.V. These assets are being
amortized over their useful lives ranging from five to eleven years.

LOSS ON SALE OF MALAYSIAN OPERATION

     On June 30, 2000, we completed the sale of our Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia-based
semiconductor assembly and test operations to ChipPAC, Inc. As consideration for
the sale we received approximately $52.5 million in cash and $15.8 million in
ChipPAC preferred convertible stock and we recognized a non-recurring, non-cash
charge of $24.8 million for loss on sale.

INTEREST EXPENSE

     In connection with the acquisition of the semiconductor business, we
entered into new credit facilities. See "--Liquidity and Capital Resources."
Interest expense related to this debt for Intersil Holding during the fiscal
year 2000 was $41.9 million, excluding interest income of $3.8 million.

                                       24
<PAGE>
  Extraordinary Item

     On February 25, 2000, we issued 22,000,000 shares of our Class A Common
Stock in a registered underwritten initial public offering. From the proceeds of
the offering, we repaid approximately $419.0 million of debt incurred through
the acquisition of the semiconductor business, which included certain prepayment
penalties and accrued interest. In connection with the early extinguishment of
debt, we recorded extraordinary charges (net of tax effect) of $25.5 million.
The extraordinary charges consisted of the write-off of deferred financing fees
and prepayment penalties.

  Tax Expense

     The tax benefit for the combined twelve months ended June 30, 2000 is not
comparable to the twelve months ended July 2, 1999, due to the differences in
our tax structure as compared to that of the semiconductor business and Harris.

  Backlog

     We had backlog at June 30, 2000 of $259.5 million compared to
$174.0 million at July 2, 1999. The increase was due to increased demand for our
integrated communications products and improved market conditions.

FISCAL YEAR 1999 COMPARED WITH FISCAL YEAR 1998

  Revenue

     Revenue for fiscal year 1999 decreased 7.6% to $532.7 million from $576.8
million in fiscal year 1998. This decrease was the result of continued soft
market conditions and resulting adverse effects on semiconductor demand. This
trend continued through the second quarter of fiscal 1999. We believe that the
principal causes for the decline were initially high inventory levels of our
products at our distributors, which decreased 17% from fiscal year 1998 to
fiscal year 1999, as well as high levels of inventory at customers. This was
followed by an overall drop in global semiconductor demand of 8.5% in calendar
year 1998. Particularly hard hit were our Discrete Power products where prices
of power metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors, or MOSFETs,
declined by nearly 15%. Additionally, distributors and major original equipment
manufacturers reduced the amount of pipeline inventory in the channel, taking
advantage of the shorter lead-times and lower prices. During the third fiscal
quarter of 1999, we began to experience an increase in new orders, which
resulted in a 9.1% increase in sales in the third quarter versus the preceding
quarter. The positive trend continued into the fourth quarter with an increase
in sales of 11.3% from the third quarter.

     Geographically, 53.5%, 24.6% and 21.9% of product sales were derived in
North America, Europe and Asia/Pacific, respectively, during fiscal year 1999,
compared to 53.8%, 28.0%, and 18.2% in fiscal year 1998.

  Gross Margin

     Gross margin on product sales declined 11.9% to $182.9 million in fiscal
year 1999 from $207.5 million in fiscal year 1998. As a percent of sales, gross
margin was 34.3% in fiscal year 1999 and 36.0% in fiscal year 1998. This
decrease was substantially due to price pressure worldwide for our Discrete
Power products and a $13.2 million increase in our depreciation expense
resulting from the additional capital expenditures that went into our 8-inch
wafer fab in Mountaintop, Pennsylvania. Our gross margin decline was partially
offset by a series of cost reduction initiatives which resulted in lower
operating costs and improved pricing and terms with our suppliers of raw
materials.

  R&D

     R&D expenses decreased 10.8% to $67.0 million in fiscal year 1999 from
$75.1 million in fiscal year 1998. During fiscal year 1999, we focused our
resources on targeted applications and reduced programs that did not support our
emphasis. Major investment continued on the PRISM(R) chip set which addresses
the wireless local area network market. R&D for products designed for the power
management market was

                                       25
<PAGE>
principally focused on computing and communications which led our growth of new
product revenue during fiscal year 1999.

  SG&A

     SG&A costs decreased 13.8% to $93.3 million in fiscal year 1999 from $108.2
million in fiscal year 1998. The decrease in SG&A was primarily due to increased
efficiencies resulting from a reorganization of the internal sales force and
external sales representative firms and reduction of administrative expenses
including headcount reductions. Operating expenses include allocated charges by
Harris to us for legal, financial and other administrative expenses of
$9.3 million for fiscal year 1999 and $10.0 million for fiscal year 1998. As a
percentage of sales, SG&A costs decreased to 17.5% in fiscal year 1999 from
18.8% in fiscal year 1998.

  Tax Expenses

     The tax benefit of $6.0 million in fiscal year 1999 was primarily driven by
changes in the Malaysian tax system, resulting in fiscal year 1999 income not
being subject to tax.

  Backlog

     We had backlog at July 2, 1999 of $174.0 million compared to backlog of
about $188.5 million at July 3, 1998. The decrease in backlog was primarily due
to shorter industry lead-times.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     On February 25, 2000, we issued 22,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock
at a price of $25.00 per share. We received net proceeds from this offering,
after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other fees, of
approximately $513.1 million, of which $435.2 million was subsequently used to
repay debt incurred as a result of our acquisition of the semiconductor business
of Harris.

     In connection with the acquisition of the semiconductor business, we
entered into new credit facilities, which provided for a Senior Term Facility of
$205.0 million and a Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate amount up to
$70.0 million. We may request, subject to the agreement of our lenders, that the
amount of the Revolving Credit Facilities be increased to as much as $150
million. The Revolving Credit Facility will mature in 2005 unless terminated
earlier and was undrawn as of June 30, 2000.

     Our principal capital requirements are to fund working capital needs, to
meet required debt payments and to complete planned maintenance and expansion.
We anticipate that our operating cash flow and our cash on hand, together with
available borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, will be sufficient to
meet our working capital, capital expenditure and interest requirements on our
debt obligations for the foreseeable future. As of June 30, 2000, our total debt
and shareholders' equity was $116.6 million and $679.0 million, respectively.

     Because our business was operated as a subsidiary of Harris during fiscal
year 1998 to August 13, 1999, we do not believe our prior years' cash flows are
indicative of our business on a stand-alone basis. Net cash generated by
operating activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000 was $111.1 million.
Net cash provided by investing activities for the fiscal year ended June 30,
2000 was $13.7 million. Net cash used twelve months ended June 30, 2000 was
$435.2 million. Our cash and cash equivalents balance at June 30, 2000 was
$211.9 million.

     Our Revolving Credit Facility and the indenture governing the Notes contain
financial covenants and restrictions including restrictions on our ability to
pay cash dividends or to effect mergers or acquisitions, incur certain
indebtedness or to make certain investments without the bank's prior approval.
We are currently in compliance with such financial covenants and restrictions.

     On September 20, 2000, we issued 3,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock
at a price of $48.00 per share. We received net proceeds from this offering,
after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses of
$7.8 million, of approximately $136.2 million. Pursuant to this public offering,
we issued an additional 500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock at $48.00 per
share upon the exercise of the over-allotment option by the underwriters on
September 26, 2000. We received net proceeds from the exercise of the
over-allotment option, after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated
offering

                                       26
<PAGE>
expenses of $1.1 million, of approximately $22.9 million. We intend to use the
proceeds from the offering and the exercise of the over-allotment option for
general corporate purposes, including expenditures for research and development
of new products and sales and marketing efforts. In addition, we intend to use a
portion of the proceeds to acquire complementary products, technology or
businesses or to retire portions of our outstanding debt.

  Receivables and Inventories

     Trade accounts receivable less the allowance for collection losses totaled
$111.7 million at June 30, 2000 compared to $100.7 million at July 2, 1999. This
increase was due to higher product shipments from increased demand. Inventories
declined 17.8% from $153.8 million at July 2, 1999 to $126.5 million at June 30,
2000. The inventory decrease was a result of the sale of our Malaysian operation
and a management initiative to reduce our inventory through portfolio management
and process improvements.

     Distributor reserves have fluctuated from year to year based on the level
of inventory at distributors. The reserve increased 13.8% from $6.5 million at
July 2, 1999 to $7.4 million at June 30, 2000 resulting from increasing
inventory levels at distributors in response to higher demand and overall market
improvement.

  Capital Expenditures

     Capital expenditures for fiscal year ended June 30, 2000 were $40.7 million
compared to $38.6 million in fiscal year 1999. We do not anticipate substantial
capital expenditures in the foreseeable future.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. (SFAS) 137, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities -- Deferral of the Effective Date of SFAS
133." SFAS 137 amends Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," to defer its
effective date to all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June
15, 2000. SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments including standalone instruments, as forward currency exchange
contracts and interest rate swaps or embedded derivatives and requires that
these instruments be marked-to-market on an ongoing basis. These market value
adjustments are to be included either in the income statement or shareholders'
equity, depending on the nature of the transaction. We are required to adopt
SFAS 133 in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2001. We believe that SFAS 133
will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of
operations.

     In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued SAB No.
101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements," which provides guidance on
the recognition, presentation, and disclosure of revenue in financial statements
filed with the SEC. SAB No. 101 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to
recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosure related to revenue
recognition policies. We believe that SAB No. 101 will not have a material
effect on our financial position or results of operations.

     In April 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB
Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock
Compensation, an Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25." Among other issues, this
interpretation clarifies the definition of employees for purposes of applying
Opinion No. 25, the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a
non-compensatory plan, the accounting consequence of various modifications to
the terms of a previously fixed stock option or award and the accounting for an
exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. This
interpretation is effective July 1, 2000, but certain conclusions in the
interpretations cover specific events that occur after either December 15, 1998
or January 12, 2000. To the extent that this interpretation covers events
occurring during the period after December 15, 1998, or January 12, 2000, but
before the effective date of July 1, 2000, the effect of applying this
interpretation is recognized on a prospective basis from July 1, 2000. We are
currently reviewing our stock grants to determine the impact, if any, that may
arise from implementation of this interpretation, although we do not expect the
impact, if any, to be material to our financial statements.

MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT

     In the normal course of doing business, we are exposed to the risks
associated with foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates.
We employ established policies and procedures governing the use of financial
instruments to manage our exposure to these risks.

     In August 1999, we began to use foreign exchange contracts to hedge
anticipated foreign cash flow commitments of up to six months. Hedges on
anticipated foreign cash flow commitments do not qualify for deferral and,
therefore, gains and losses or changes on fair market value of the foreign
exchange contracts are recognized in income.

     Prior to August 1999, we used foreign exchange contracts and options to
hedge both balance sheet and off-balance sheet foreign currency commitments.
Specifically, these foreign exchange contracts offset foreign currency
denominated inventory and purchase commitments from suppliers, and accounts
receivable from, and future committed sales to customers and intercompany loans.
Foreign currency financial instruments were used to reduce the risks that arise
from doing business in international markets.

     At June 30, 2000 we had open foreign exchange contracts with a notional
amount of $30.9 million, all of which were anticipated foreign cash flow
commitments. At July 2, 1999, we had open foreign exchange contracts with a
notional amount of $22.0 million, all of which were to hedge off-balance-sheet
commitments. Additionally, during fiscal year 2000 we purchased and sold $87.4
million of foreign exchange forward and option contracts, compared to
$120.7 million for the prior year. See Note O "Financial Instruments" in the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information with respect
to commitments to buy or sell foreign currencies. Our hedging activities provide
only limited protection against currency exchange risks. Factors that could
impact the effectiveness of our hedging programs include accuracy of sales
estimates, volatility of currency markets and the cost and availability of
hedging instruments. A 10% adverse change in currency exchange rates for our
foreign currency derivatives held at June 30, 2000, would have an impact of
approximately $3.8 million on the fair value of these instruments. This
qualification of exposure to the market risk associated with foreign exchange
financial instruments does not take into account the offsetting impact of
changes in the fair value of our foreign denominated assets, liabilities, and
firm commitments.

     As of June 30, 2000, we also had fixed rate debt of approximately $116.6
million consisting primarily of the 13.25% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2009.
For fixed rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair market
value, but not earnings or cash flows.

                               INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

     Semiconductors, which consist of integrated circuits and discrete
semiconductors, are the critical components used to create an increasing variety
of electronic products and systems. Integrated circuits operate at low power
levels and perform multiple functions to process and convey information in
electronic signal form. Integrated circuit capability is largely defined by
circuit density, which increases as its components are miniaturized. In contrast
to integrated circuits, discrete semiconductors perform a single function and
often have multiple uses in many different end-user applications.

     Worldwide Semiconductor Trade Statistics, or WSTS, forecasts strong growth
of about 17.9% for the semiconductor industry through 2003. We sell our
semiconductors into high-growth segments of the market including the
communications analog & mixed-signal market, which is forecast by the
Semiconductor Industry Association, or SIA, to grow 34.5% in calendar year 2000
from calendar year 1999, segments of the power management market, which is
forecast by SIA to grow at 70.0% in calendar year 2000 from calendar year 1999,
and the wireless local area network integrated circuit market, which is forecast
by Cahners In-Stat Group to grow 133.1% in calendar year 2000 from calendar year
1999.

SEMICONDUCTOR CLASSIFICATIONS

     The following table sets forth the worldwide semiconductor total available
market, or TAM, for each of five product functions of the semiconductor industry

     Analog integrated circuits are used to shape or condition electrical
signals, to amplify electrical signal strengths, to convert electrical signals
to and from digital "one or zero" levels, to regulate voltage levels and to
provide interfaces between other products within an electrical system. Power
semiconductors can be either discrete power devices or analog integrated
circuits. Discrete devices perform a single function, such as switching
electricity on and off. Analog integrated circuits perform multiple functions
such as controlling and regulating currents. Microcomponents include
microprocessors and microcontrollers that process data according to instructions
embedded within the semiconductors themselves. These are considered the "brains"
of the electronic system and are at the center of the system architecture.
Memory are devices that store data and instructions. The "other" category
includes all electronic devices whose functions do not include one of the four
previously mentioned product functions.

ANALOG

     Analog signals are not discrete binary numerical values, but rather
continuously variable electrical signals that represent continuous data
variables or wave signals, such as sound waves. The analog market is split into
two major segments: standard linear and mixed signal. The standard linear market
is composed of building block products such as amplifiers, voltage regulators,
data conversion, interface circuits and comparators. These products are used in
all end systems, from computers and telecommunications, to industrial,
automotive and consumer applications. The mixed signal market consists of more
complex analog products, which also contain some digital circuitry for timing,
information control and data flow. Mixed signal products are often developed for
specific applications, such as video encoding, hard disk drive control, data
transmission, motor control and power management.

                                       29

DISCRETE POWER

     Discrete power semiconductors, such as a transistor or diode (a device that
allows current to flow in only one direction), typically contain one active
element. These devices perform a single function such as efficiently switching
electricity on and off. Examples of discrete power semiconductors include power
metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors, or MOSFETs, and insulated
gate bipolar transistors, or IGBTs. MOSFETs are semiconductors that convert,
switch or otherwise shape or condition electricity. IGBTs typically serve the
switch function in power conversion applications that require higher current and
voltage than power MOSFETs can handle efficiently. IGBTs combine the ease of
voltage-driven power MOSFET technology with the conduction efficiency of bipolar
transistor technology.

INDUSTRY TRENDS

     As the performance of semiconductor devices has increased and size and cost
have decreased, demand for semiconductors has expanded beyond their original
primary applications in computer systems to applications in telecommunications
systems, automotive products, consumer products and industrial automation and
control systems. In addition, system users and designers have driven the demand
for systems with increased functionality, higher levels of performance, greater
reliability and shorter design cycle times, all in smaller packages at lower
costs. These demands have resulted in increased semiconductor dollar content of
electronic products. The demand for electronic systems has also expanded
geographically with the emergence of new markets, particularly in the
Asia/Pacific region. We believe that future demand for semiconductors will be
driven by the growing trend towards use of the Internet and portable
electronics, including consumer electronics, computers and cellular telephones,
and the resulting need for semiconductors that can manage connectivity and power
for longer periods of use and that require less space.

     Today, nearly every form of communication is being revolutionized by the
growing use of digital communications to move all types of data, voice and video
around the world. Different technologies, protocols and media have evolved which
are uniquely suited to particular applications in this rapidly evolving
environment. Advances in broadband communications are accelerating the reach of
cost effective, fast data highways to both homes and offices. Communications
semiconductors will be used extensively in broadband communication
networks/facilities, portable communications devices, and in servers and
infrastructure supporting the Internet. Each of these technologies requires
specific transport and access hardware devices, including handsets and base
stations for wireless telephony, switches and routers for telecommunications and
data networking, set-top boxes for cable and satellite communications, and
digital cable and digital subscriber line, or xDSL, modems for Internet access.
The advent of the Internet as a communications medium has dramatically increased
business and consumer demand for high-speed access to multimedia and
entertainment content.

     As business and consumers increasingly rely on the Internet and intranets,
many existing networks are under significant stress. A bandwidth constraint has
emerged, particularly at the "last mile" of network infrastructures, challenging
users and industry participants in a number of communications segments. In
response to growing network demands, telecommunications, data communications and
cable network operators are making significant investments to alleviate
congestion and support emerging high bandwidth, integrated data, voice and video
services. Specific technologies addressing bandwidth capacity constraints
include cable modems and xDSL, including asymmetric digital subscriber line, or
ADSL, for residential applications, high speed digital subscriber line, or HDSL,
symmetric digital subscriber line, or SDSL, and T1/E1 for high speed network
access in commercial applications, and asynchronous transfer mode, or ATM, and
synchronous optical network, or SONET, for network backbone transmission. The
importance of the Internet as a communications medium and the increased ability
to deliver access to content available through the Internet will increase the
demand for home and small business networking solutions, provided these
networking solutions are cost-effective.

     Wireless telephony technologies are moving towards the third generation, or
3G, of standards such as Wideband CDMA which will support more users than
current standards, provide faster data transmission and mobile Internet access,
and increase the ability to execute new wireless applications. Second
generation, or 2G, is the current digital standard supporting IS-95 CDMA and GSM
and is used widely throughout the

                                       30
<PAGE>
world. Given the significant investment in infrastructure required to move from
2G to 3G, some carriers have begun to provide an intermediate technology, known
as 2.5G, such as Edge and IS-95+, which enhances speed and capacity, but does
not provide all the capabilities of 3G. This infrastructure buildout to 2.5G and
ultimately to 3G will require the use of advanced integrated circuits that are
compatible with the new digital standards.

     In addition, these developments in communications infrastructure depend on
enhanced performance capabilities of advanced electronic systems. As electronic
systems continue to increase in performance and sophistication, they demand more
complex power management solutions. The latest generation personal computers
rely on advances in power conversion to operate at ever-lower voltages in order
to reduce power consumption, increase efficiency and, in notebook personal
computers, prolong battery life. Further, advanced electronic systems outside of
communications applications also have greater power management requirements. All
of these systems, including efficient power supplies for communications and
computing networks and engine and chassis management in automobiles, require
advanced power management semiconductors for more complex digital signal
processors and microcontrollers and for efficient power inverters.

     The growth in Internet infrastructure, portable battery-powered computing
and communication devices and continually faster microprocessors are driving the
development of, and demand for, successively more efficient power management
integrated circuits and discrete power semiconductors.

    ANALOG & MIXED-SIGNAL

     Our Analog & Mixed-Signal portfolio represented 60.7% of our fiscal year
2000 revenue. We deliver leading-edge analog, mixed signal and digital signal
processing semiconductors and groups of semiconductors that are designed to work
together, also known as chip set solutions, for today's fastest-growing
communications markets. Our design focus targets such opportunities as wired
networks, subscriber line interface circuits, or SLICs, which interface analog
and digital signals for telecom systems, and high-speed digital radios for
cellular basestations. The two analog product lines include the following:

     Signal Processing Products.  We have a portfolio of linear, mixed-signal
and digital signal processing integrated circuits optimized for high-speed
communications applications, Communications analog and mixed-signal integrated
circuits are primarily targeted at wired and wireless voice and data
communications infrastructure applications. We have developed a complete
portfolio of digital radio signal processing products and a line of 8-, 12- and
14-bit high speed data acquisition converter integrated circuits for cellular
basestations, wireless data links, wireless local loop and broadband wireless
access, which we refer to as the wireless infrastructure market. These products,
designated CommLink(TM), enable our customers to increase the amount of data
that can be transmitted, enabling the addition of high speed data transmission
to cellular communications networks. These integrated circuits enable faster
wireless data links between remote basestations and also enable more efficient
cable "headends"--the ground station for the satellite links and broadband
wireless access--which is sometimes called Wireless Cable or LMDS. Our products
support cellular standards including 2G Digital such as IS-95 CDMA and GSM, 2.5G
such as Edge and IS-95+, and G3 such as Wideband CDMA. We utilize both systems
level engineering and integrated circuit expertise to offer superior products
for wireless communications systems. This combination of expertise enabled us to
introduce the industry's first digital signal processing-based single chip, the
HSP50016, which increased the efficiency of signal chain implementation through
component reductions. We continue that leadership with the HSP50216 Quad
programmable down converter for use in 2.5G cellular basestation designs.

     New generations of high performance digital signal processing
communications integrated circuits require ever increasing performance from the
analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters that convert between digital
signals and analog radio frequency signals for wireless applications. We
currently market a family of 6- to 14-bit, CMOS analog-to-digital and
digital-to-analog converters in multiple speed ranges and functional
combinations in order to complement our digital radio wireless infrastructure
solutions.

     With more than 15 years of experience in their design and development, we
continue to expand our portfolio of SLICs. SLICs, which are used in many
telephone applications, serve two primary functions. First, they interface
analog voice signals with digital processors. Second, they serve the simple, yet
essential, function of ringing a telephone to signal an incoming call. Recently,
we introduced an advanced ringing SLIC, which combined both functions into a
single SLIC. Thus, the ringing SLIC acts as both an interface into the telephone
and also rings the telephone. Our newest ringing SLIC product, a voice over
internet protocol, or VoIP, product, enables the use of analog phones in the
emerging Internet telephony market. Our SLIC portfolio of advanced telecom
linecard solutions are ideal for today's universal telecom exchange

                                       33

systems, including Plain Old Telephone Service, or POTS, Private Branch
Exchanges, Central Office, Loop Carrier, Fiber in the Loop and Wireless Local
Loop.

     Included in our legacy base product portfolio are operational amplifiers,
which are referred to as op amps, interface integrated circuits, industrial and
video integrated circuits and digital products which serve both defense and
commercial systems, with microprocessor, memory and data communications
products. These products typically have long life cycles and are designed into
customers' products. These include the industry standard BiCMOS high speed op
amp and the low power instrumentation converter. This portfolio is sold to a
broad range of customers in industrial, medical, computer, avionics and test and
measurement instrumentation markets, primarily through distribution partners.
These products typically have long life cycles and are designed into our
customers' products thereby supporting long-term sales. Our end-user markets
include wireless communications, video and image processing, high-speed
satellite communications, test/measurement equipment and medical
instrumentation.

     We supply our communications products to Cisco, Dell, IBM, Lucent, Siemens
and other customers.

     Power Management Integrated Circuits.  We develop power system
architectures and provide a portfolio of computer products, file server/storage
system products, networking and VoIP products. Our power management products for
computing applications operate in a voltage range of 1 to 30 volts and are
designed into desktop personal computers, file servers and workstations. We have
also developed new power management circuits for 24x7 server networks supporting
e-commerce on the Internet.

     Our highly successful HIP6000 family of pulse width modulator controller
integrated circuits are used in about 30% of all personal computers that use
Pentium, Pentium II and Pentium III class processors. We are currently working
with motherboard manufacturers to have our pulse width modular controller
integrated circuits designed into motherboards utilizing the recently introduced
Pentium 4 processor. We expect to begin shipping products for Pentium 4
motherboards as Pentium 4 processors begin to ship in greater volumes in the
near term. Based on our current design wins, we believe that we also will have a
substantial share of the volume of pulse width modulator controller integrated
circuits used in motherboards utilizing Athlon processors.

     We have introduced an advanced architecture which delivers multiphase power
to higher speed microprocessors. This is a requirement for Intel and AMD
microprocessors above 800 MHz. This new platform of products consists of three
controllers (HIP6301, HIP6302 and HIP6303) and three gate drivers (HIP6601,
HIP6602 and HIP6603). We also offer a complete advanced configuration power
interface solution for instant on and sleep mode capability used to save energy
in personal computers.

     We provide complete power solutions for the file server and redundant array
of independent disks, or RAID, market. Internet growth, especially e-commerce,
is driving the need for high reliability/availability in these applications. Our
family of hot plug products allows repair and maintenance of a file server and
RAID without a complete shutdown of the file server.

     We are currently expanding our space-qualified portfolio by offering our
Starpower(TM) family of radiation hardened power management products for
commercial satellite applications. We are developing what we believe will be an
industry-leading radiation hardened DC/DC Converter power module line to provide
highly reliable power management in communications satellites. Our radiation
hardened integrated circuit product portfolio includes logic, memories, signal
processing components, microprocessors and custom devices, providing system
designers with a full complement of products for radiation hardened systems used
in commercial space and defense applications.

     Our power management integrated circuits are also used in industrial
control and automotive engine management systems.

     We supply our power management products to Asustek, Compaq, Dell, IBM,
Intel and other customers.

     DISCRETE POWER

     Our Discrete Power portfolio represented 31.4% of our revenue for fiscal
year 2000. Discrete Power products, coupled with our power management integrated
circuits provide unique power management solutions for the integrated
communications market. Our MOSFETs have been designed in conjunction with our
multiphase power integrated circuits for faster, next generation computers. We
also manufacture efficient power MOSFETs used in servers supporting the
Internet. We are investing in new, efficient trench power devices for cellular
phones and portable information appliances.

     In 1980, we invented IGBTs, or insulated gate bipolar transistors, and hold
some of the fundamental patents that cover their production. We introduced our
600V SMPS, or switch mode power supply Series IGBT family of high-speed, high
efficiency IGBTs specifically tailored for operation in today's switched mode
power supplies. Our portfolio also includes radiation hardened N- and P-channel
metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors, or MOSFETs, for
high-reliability applications such as communications satellites.

     In addition, our IGBTs, MOSFETs and rectifiers are used in automotive and
industrial applications. These include motor management, automotive ignition,
welding, instrumentation and other industrial applications. Like our base analog
and mixed-signal products, our base power MOSFETs are designed into our
customers' products with life cycles spanning several years.

     We supply our Discrete Power products to Asustek, Bosch, Compaq, Emerson
and Siemens and other customers who use our products for personal computer
motherboard power, diesel fuel injection, body and chassis controls and
industrial power supplies.

     WIRELESS

     Our Wireless portfolio represented 7.9% of our revenue for fiscal year
2000. We are the leading developer of semiconductor solutions for the emerging
wireless local area networking market. Our PRISM(R) family of chip sets
addresses the growing demand for wireless networking for use in both the home
and business providing cost effective, wireless access to high data rate
broadband communications networks. We believe we are the only supplier of an
integrated wireless networking product solution, including reference designs,
software and all integrated circuits necessary for wireless data communications
at data rates of 11 megabits-per-second.

     The PRISM II chip set is composed of five highly integrated semiconductors.
They are the 2.4GHz power amplifier, RF/IF up and down converter, IF/BV
quadrature modulator/demodulator, baseband processor and the medium access
controller. These integrated circuits represent design and manufacturing
competence in radio frequency, or RF, mixed-signal and digital technologies. The
2.4GHz power amplifier, RF/IF up and down converter, and the quadrature
modular/demodulator are designed and manufactured using a high performance RF
silicon germanium process technology. The baseband processor and medium access
controller are designed and manufactured using submicron complementary metal
oxide semiconductor, or CMOS, process technologies.

     Because we design all of the components of our wireless chip set, including
reference designs and software, we believe we provide our customers with the
best available performance and value. Providing our customers with a turnkey
wireless data radio solution enables them to have the fastest time to market for
their systems which we believe is a critical competitive advantage in this
emerging market. More than 40 companies, including Cisco, Compaq, Nokia,
Samsung, and Sony, have adopted use of the PRISM(R) chip set in their products.
Our PRISM II chip set, our second-generation chip set capable of delivering
high-speed wireless networking at data rates of 11 megabits-per-second. The
PRISM II chip set incorporates advanced integrated circuit design with silicon
germanium process technology which makes the PRISM II chip set five times faster
while reducing power consumption by 50% compared to the original PRISM(R) chip
set. Since the introduction of the PRISM II chip set, we have been developing
relationships with original equipment manufacturers, including Cisco, Compaq,
Nokia, Nortel, Siemens, Sony, Symbol and 3Com, for use of the PRISM II chip set
in a variety of wireless local area network applications for home and business.

     As of May 29, 2000, we acquired privately held No Wires Needed B.V., or
NWN, for 3.35 million shares (which includes 323,493 shares issuable upon the
exercise of options) of our Class A Common Stock. Based in Bilthoven, The
Netherlands, NWN provides high performance wireless-to-broadband access point
reference designs. NWN utilizes the PRISM(R) chip set together with its own high
data rate digital controller integrated circuits allowing end users to
wirelessly connect multiple computers and hand-held or Internet appliances to a
wired broadband network. NWN also provides wireless encryption software which
enhances the security of a wireless local area network. Additionally, NWN has
designed a high data rate digital controller integrated circuit, which is a
component we believe will enhance the performance of future generations of our
PRISM(R) chip set. The NWN digital integrated circuit, which we refer to as a
medium access controller, or MAC, is compliant with the IEEE802.11b standard and
can support data rates of up to 54 megabits per second, which is vital for
multi-channel voice and digital video in homes and offices. The acquisition of
NWN added 52 new employees.

     Outside of our targeted end markets, our remaining category is industrial
products. Applications in this category include automotive applications such as
fuel injection and ignition circuits, industrial applications including power
supplies and defense applications such as smart munitions and tactical and
strategic missiles. We sell to, among others, DaimlerChrysler, Siemens, Boeing,
Lockheed Martin and Emerson.

SALES, MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION

     In fiscal years 2000 and 1999, we derived about 60% and 66%, respectively,
of our sales from original equipment manufacturer, or OEM, customers through our
global sales organizations and 40% and 34%, respectively, of our sales through
distributors. We operate sales organizations in the Americas, Europe and the
Asia/Pacific region. Our sales organizations are supported by logistics
organizations. Product orders flow to our manufacturing facilities or to one of
our foundries where the product is made. Products are then shipped to the
customer either directly or indirectly via our warehouses in the United States,
and Europe and Asia.

     We have dedicated direct sales organizations operating in the Americas,
Europe and Asia/Pacific regions that serve our major OEM customers. We have
strategically located our sales offices near these major OEM customers. We also
have a large network of distributors and manufacturers' representatives to
distribute our products around the world. To serve our customers base we
maintain a small, highly focused, direct sales force selling products for each
of our targeted product areas, combined with an extensive network of
distributors and manufacturers' representatives. Our sales force is segmented by
end-user markets, thereby ensuring each salesperson has an end-user market
expertise and focus. We also maintain a dedicated marketing organization, which
supports each product area on a regional basis.

     Typically, distributors handle a wide variety of products, including
products that compete with our products, and fill orders for many customers.
Some of our sales to distributors are made under agreements

                                       36
<PAGE>
allowing for market price fluctuations and/or the right of return on some unsold
merchandise. Virtually all distribution agreements contain an industry standard
stock rotation provision allowing for minimum levels of inventory returns. In
our experience, these inventory returns can usually be resold. Manufacturers'
representatives generally do not offer products that compete directly with our
products, but may carry complementary items manufactured by others.
Manufacturers' representatives do not maintain a product inventory; instead,
their customers place large quantity orders directly with us and are referred to
distributors for smaller orders.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

     We believe that the continued introduction of new products in our target
markets is essential to our growth. We believe that we must continue to
innovate, enhance and expand our products and services to maintain our
leadership position, and we intend to achieve this through in-house research and
development efforts and selective acquisitions. As of June 30, 2000, we had 571
employees engaged in research and development efforts. Our research and
development efforts are focused on new product development and improvements in
process technology in our growth areas of communications and power management.
For fiscal year 2000, we allocated about 92% of our research and development
investment towards development of products for the integrated communications
market.

     Our expenditures for research and development in fiscal years 1998, 1999
and 2000 were $75.1 million, $67.0 million and $78.0 million, respectively. Each
of our product areas maintains independent research and development
organizations. We work closely with our major customers in many research and
development situations to increase the likelihood that our products will be
designed directly into the customers' products and achieve rapid and lasting
market acceptance.

MANUFACTURING

     We fabricate wafers at three locations in the United States--Mountaintop,
Pennsylvania, Palm Bay, Florida, and Findlay, Ohio. We also use a number of
outside wafer fabrication foundries for the manufacture of device types where we
do not have the necessary technologies resident in house. We also utilize
advanced manufacturing processes of outside foundries for certain components of
our PRISM(R) products.

     We recently sold our principal assembly and test facility is located in
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to ChipPAC and entered into a multi-year supply
agreement with ChipPAC under which the Malaysian facility became our preferred
provider of semiconductor assembly and test services. We also have limited
assembly and test capability in Palm Bay, Florida. We use a number of assembly
and test subcontractors for device types and packages that cannot be assembled
and tested at ChipPAC's facility in Kuala Lumpur.

     Our wafer fabs are among the most productive and efficient in the industry.
We believe we can continue to maintain competitive cost, further increase
productivity and enhance our process efficiency by investing in people and
assets, where necessary.

     We utilize an extensive set of manufacturing processes to fabricate our
products, including technologies such as: ULTRAFET(R), IGBT, BiCMOS, Power
BiCMOS, High Frequency Bipolar, CMOS and Rad Hard Processes. The table below
sets forth some information regarding our manufacturing facilities, products,
wafer diameter and annual wafer capacity:

     Our manufacturing processes use many raw materials, including silicon
wafers, and various chemicals and gases. We obtain our raw materials and
supplies from a large number of sources on a just-in-time basis. Although
supplies for the raw materials used by us are currently adequate, shortages
could occur in various essential materials due to interruption of supply or
increased demand in the industry.

BACKLOG

     Our sales are made pursuant to purchase orders that are generally booked
from one to six months in advance of delivery. Backlog is influenced by several
factors including market demand, pricing and customer order patterns in reaction
to product lead times. Although quantities actually purchased by customers may
vary between booking and delivery to the extent customer needs or industry
conditions change, our backlog has historically been a reliable indicator of our
future revenues. Our backlog was about $188.5 million at July 3, 1998, $174.0
million at July 2, 1999 and $259.5 million at June 30, 2000. We expect to ship
the backlog at June 30, 2000 within twelve months of that date.

SEASONALITY

     A lower percentage of our products is sold to the computer end-user or into
the computer market than is sold by other semiconductor manufacturers. Sales in
the computer market fluctuate more than in other semiconductor markets. As a
result, we experience less seasonal fluctuation than the semiconductor industry
as a whole. Historically, our first quarter has been the weakest due to model
year changeovers in the automotive industry and summer holiday seasons,
primarily in Europe. Our increasing focus on integrated communications products
has resulted in a higher percentage of our sales coming from the communications
markets in the second half of our fiscal year. Sales made into the
communications market generally experience less seasonality than sales of our
historical mix of products.

COMPETITION

     We compete in different markets to various degrees on the basis of price,
technical performance, product features, product system compatibility,
customized design, availability, quality and sales and technical support. Our
ability to compete successfully depends on elements both within and outside of
our control, including successful and timely development of new products and
manufacturing processes, product performance and quality, manufacturing yields,
product availability, intellectual property protection obtained by us and our
competitors, customer service, pricing, industry trends and general economic
trends.

engaged in engineering, 394 were engaged in marketing and sales, 145 were
engaged in administration and 105 were engaged in operating our management
information systems. Of our employees, 1,786 were employed in the Analog &
Mixed-Signal area; 882 were employed in the Discrete Power area; and 262 were
employed in the Wireless area. We believe that our relations with our employees
are good.

PROPERTIES

     In the United States, we lease our corporate headquarters in Irvine,
California. Additional manufacturing, warehouse and office facilities are housed
in about 846,000 square feet, 445,000 square feet and 270,000 square feet of
space in properties owned by us in Palm Bay, Florida, Mountaintop, Pennsylvania
and Findlay, Ohio, respectively.

     Our primary engineering activity takes place in Palm Bay, Florida and at
our other manufacturing facilities. In addition, we have engineering activities
taking place in our corporate headquarters and in leased facilities in Durham,
North Carolina (Research Triangle Park), Branchburg, New Jersey, San
Antonio, Texas, Seattle, Washington and Bilthoven, The Netherlands.

     We maintain regional sales offices in Orange County, California, Palm Bay,
Florida; Burlington, Massachusetts; Dallas, Texas; San Jose, California; Munich,
Germany; Milan, Italy; Camberly, United Kingdom; and Taipei, Taiwan and other
sales offices around the world. All our offices are leased generally under short
term leases, except our offices in Palm Bay, Florida.

     We believe that our facilities around the world, whether owned or leased,
are well-maintained. Our manufacturing facilities contain sufficient production
capacity to meet our needs for the foreseeable future.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

     Our operations are subject to environmental laws in the countries in which
we operate that regulate, among other things, air, ground and water emissions at
our manufacturing facilities; the management and disposal of hazardous
substances; and the investigation and remediation of environmental
contamination. As with other companies engaged in like businesses, the nature of
our operations exposes us to the risk of environmental liabilities or claims. We
believe, however, that our operations are in substantial compliance with
applicable environmental requirements. Our costs to comply with environmental
regulations were about $6.3 million, $7.4 million and $4.8 million in each of
fiscal years 1998, 1999 and 2000, respectively.

                                       39

     Our facilities in Findlay, Ohio have ongoing remediation projects to
respond to releases of hazardous substances that occurred prior to the
acquisition of Harris' semiconductor business. Our facilities in Mountaintop,
Pennsylvania have groundwater and subsurface soil contamination from past
operations, some of which occurred prior to Harris' acquisition of those
facilities, for which remediation has been conducted, and additional remediation
may be required. In addition, Harris' facilities in Palm Bay, Florida, a portion
of which includes our business, are listed on the National Priorities List for
clean-up under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and
Liability Act. ("Superfund") Remediation activities are ongoing in Palm Bay in
accordance with consent decrees entered into by Harris with the United States
Environmental Protection Agency. Harris has agreed to indemnify us for the cost
of these projects at all of our facilities, including at Findlay, Ohio,
Mountaintop, Pennsylvania, and Palm Bay, Florida and our former facility at
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to the extent these costs exceed financial reserve
amounts at the time of our acquisition of the semiconductor business of Harris.
Based on the historical costs of these projects and because the remediation
projects are in advanced stages, we do not believe that the future cleanup costs
will be material, even without the indemnity.

     In connection with the closure of a waste storage pad at our former Kuala
Lumpur facility in Malaysia, a June 2000 environmental investigation identified
evidence of potential releases to the groundwater of hazardous substances that
were previously stored on the pad. Based on the composition of our groundwater
impacts, it appears that the hazardous substances were those used by Harris or
its predecessors, and not us. Harris has agreed to indemnify us for addressing
environmental conditions created prior to our ownership, and accordingly we put
Harris on notice of the potential environmental claim. We sold the business
which operates out of the Kuala Kumpur, Malaysia facility to ChipPAC in June
2000 (See Business--Manufacturing) and we gave ChipPAC a similar indemnity.
ChipPAC provided us with a claim for indemnification by letter dated August 1,
2000. We do not have adequate information to determine the extent of the impacts
to groundwater, but we do not believe future cleanup costs, if needed, will be
material even without the Harris indemnity.

     Future laws or regulations and changes in existing environmental laws or
regulations may subject our operations to different, additional or more
stringent standards. While historically the cost of compliance with
environmental laws has not had a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition or our results of operations, we cannot predict with
certainty our future costs of compliance because of changing standards and
requirements. We cannot assure you that material costs will not be incurred in
connection with the future compliance with environmental laws or with future
cleanup costs related to currently unknown contamination.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     From time to time we are involved in legal proceedings arising in the
ordinary course of business. We are presently co-defendants with Harris in a
suit brought by Ericsson alleging patent infringement, which is pending in the
Sherman Division of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of
Texas. Ericsson alleges infringement of four of its patents relating to
telephone subscriber line interface circuits. The suit was initially directed
against Harris; we were joined as defendants in this action on September 1,
1999. Ericsson seeks an injunction (requiring the co-defendants to stop making,
using or selling telephone subscriber line interface circuits which utilize
Ericsson's patents) plus damages, including lost profits and/or a reasonable
royalty, costs of suit, treble damages, prejudgment interest and attorneys'
fees. However, to the extent our liability for damages from this litigation, if
any, arises out of the conduct of the semiconductor business by Harris prior to
closing, this liability will be covered by Harris' agreement in connection with
the acquisition of the semiconductor business to provide us with certain
indemnities.

     In addition, Harris is a defendant in an action brought by Geisting &
Associates seeking to recover commissions and receivables allegedly lost as a
result of the termination of Geisting as a sales representative for our PRISM(R)
chip set. The action is pending in the United States District Court for the
Middle District of Florida-Orlando. While Intersil has not been named as a
defendant, we could be liable for any judgment entered against Harris on the
pending claims, and we are conducting the defense of the action. Geisting seeks
damages, including lost profits, and attorneys' fees.

     We believe that there is no litigation pending that could have,
individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition or results of operations.

him to serve as our Chief Executive Officer and a member of our Board of
Directors. His employment agreement provides for an annual base salary of
$550,000, subject to increases and annual performance bonuses at the discretion
of the Board of Directors. The agreement also provides for Mr. Williams to

August 13, 1999, subject to automatic renewal for successive one year terms,
unless either we give or Mr. Williams gives prior notice of non-renewal.

agreement and for a period of one year following termination or expiration of
the agreement.

RETIREMENT AND SAVINGS PROGRAM

     We provide retirement benefits to substantially all employees primarily
through a retirement plan having profit-sharing and savings elements.
Contributions by us to the retirement plan are based on profits and employees'
savings with no other funding requirements. We are able to make additional
contributions to the fund at our discretion. We also have non-contributory
defined benefit pension plans which are fully funded.

     Retirement benefits also include an unfunded limited healthcare plan for
U.S.-based retirees and employees on long-term disability. We accrue the
estimated cost of these medical benefits, which are not material, during an
employee's active service life.

1999 EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN

     We adopted the 1999 Equity Compensation Plan, effective August 13, 1999,
which we refer to as the Plan. Under the Plan, we may grant awards covering up
to 7,500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to key employees, directors and
consultants of the companies and our subsidiaries. Options to acquire 3,177,184
shares of Class A Common Stock are the only awards which have been granted under
the Plan as of June 30, 2000. The Plan authorizes us to grant either (1) options
intended to constitute incentive stock options under the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended, (2) non-qualified stock options, (3) shares of restricted
stock, (4) stock appreciation rights or (5) phantom share awards. Under the
Plan, a committee of the Board of Directors will determine the exercise price of
each option granted, provided that the minimum exercise price for an incentive
stock option will be the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date
the option is granted. The maximum term of any option will be ten years from the
date of grant. Options granted will be exercisable at the determination of the
committee of the Board of Directors. Within any calendar year, an employee may
not receive options to purchase more than 666,667 shares of Class A Common
Stock.

     A grant of restricted stock represents the right to become the owner of
that stock upon the lapse of restrictions, which will usually require the
performance of substantial additional services by the recipient of the grant. If
the restrictions are not satisfied, the restricted stock is forfeited. If the
restrictions are satisfied, the individual in question becomes the owner of
those shares. In the interim, the individual is entitled to any dividends that
may be paid on the restricted shares and is allowed to vote them. The individual
cannot, however, sell, assign or otherwise transfer the subject shares.

     A stock appreciation right entitles the recipient to a payment, in cash or
in shares of Class A Common Stock of an amount equal to the excess of the fair
market value of Class A Common Stock on the date the stock appreciation right is
exercised over the "exercise price" of the stock appreciation right, which will
usually be the fair market value of the Class A Common Stock on the date the
stock appreciation right is granted.

     A phantom stock award entitles the recipient to a payment in cash or in
shares of Class A Common Stock of an amount equal to the value of the underlying
Class A Common Stock as of the date of settlement specified in the award or
appreciation in the value of the underlying Class A Common Stock over the period
from the grant of the phantom share award to the date of settlement specified in
the award.

     The terms and conditions of grants of restricted stock, stock appreciation
rights and phantom stock awards will be governed by the Plan and by the terms of
the agreement making the grant or award, as determined by the committee of the
Board of Directors.

     Any Class A Common Stock awarded as restricted stock, awarded upon exercise
of an option or a stock appreciation right or awarded in settlement of a phantom
stock award will count against the 7,500,000 share overall limit under the Plan.

EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

     In connection with our initial public offering, we adopted the Intersil
Holding Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan, which we refer to as the
Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Pursuant to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, our
employees and employees of related participating employers such as Choice-
Microsystems, Inc. have an opportunity to purchase up to 1,333,334 shares of our
Class A Common Stock at a discount. All such employees who render more than 20
hours of service per week for more than five months per calendar year, other
than those who own 5% or more of our outstanding securities, are eligible to
participate in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The Employee Stock Purchase
Plan will expire 10 years from its effective date. The Employee Stock Purchase
Plan is intended to comply with the provisions of Section 423 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986.

     Employees purchase shares pursuant to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan by
electing to have a percentage of their base compensation withheld from their
paychecks for the duration of a six month purchase period. We hold such
compensation in notional accounts for the benefit of the participating
employees. At the end of each purchase period, the money that has accumulated in
each employee's notional account will be used to buy shares of our Class A
Common Stock at a price equal to no less than 85% of the lesser of the fair
market value of the stock on the first day of the purchase period and the fair
market value of the stock on the last day of the purchase period. Within any one
calendar year, an employee may not purchase more than $25,000 worth of our Class
A Common Stock under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, and no more than 16,667
shares may be purchased by an employee on any purchase date.

                 CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

     Citicorp Mezzanine Partners, L.P. contributed $30.0 million in cash to us
in exchange for the 13.5% Subordinated PIK Note due 2010 and warrants to
purchase 3,703,707 shares of our Class A Common Stock. The 13.5% Subordinated
PIK Note due 2010 was repaid in full with the proceeds of our initial public
offering and, as a result of early repayment, the number of shares subject to
such warrants was reduced to 2,222,224 shares. We contributed the $30.0 million
from Citicorp Mezzanine Partners, L.P. to Intersil as a capital contribution.
The general partner of Citicorp Mezzanine Partners, L.P. is an affiliate of
Citicorp Venture Capital Ltd. Citicorp Venture Capital Ltd. owns an interest in
Sterling, one of our principal shareholders. In connection with the public
offering of September 20, 2000 and the exercise of the over-allotment option
by the underwriters on September 26, 2000, we permitted the partial early
exercise of warrants to purchase 360,633 shares of our Class A Common Stock that
Citicorp Mezannine Partners, L.P. subsequently sold in the offering.

     Sterling, Harris and certain members of our management team entered into a
Shareholders' Agreement containing certain agreements among the shareholders
regarding our capital stock and corporate governance. We exercised our option
under the Shareholders' Agreement to repurchase from Sterling Holding Company,
LLC a total of 1,833,333 shares of Class A Common Stock for an aggregate
purchase price of $137,500 to reissue to our employees. See "Description of
Capital Stock--Shareholders' Agreement."

     We purchased from Harris selected portions of the semiconductor business.
Harris entered into various agreements with us, including the Intellectual
Property Agreement, the Patent Assignment and Services Agreement, the License
Assignment Agreement, the Secondary Trademark Assignment and License Agreement,
the Harris Trademark License Agreement and the Royalty Agreement.

     o The Intellectual Property Agreement provides for the assignment by Harris
       to us of its entire ownership right, title and interest in some
       intangible property rights owned by Harris and specific to the
       semiconductor business.

     o The Patent Assignment and Services Agreement provides for the assignment
       by Harris to us, subject to pre-existing license rights, of about 1,300
       patent rights. Harris has retained the rights to some patents for up to
       three years before assigning their entire right, title and interest
       therein to us (provided that the patents are not in litigation at the
       time, and no royalties are owed on licenses to the patents). During the
       interim preceding the assignment of these retained patents, Harris has
       granted us a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license to these
       patents, without the right to sublicense.

     o The License Assignment Agreement provides for the assignment by Harris to
       us of certain license agreements that may be assigned without the consent
       of third party licensors and licensees and also provides that Harris will
       provide us with the economic benefit of certain other material license
       agreements that may not be assigned without the consent of third party
       licensors and licensees.

     o The Secondary Trademark Assignment and License Agreement provides for the
       assignment by Harris to us of some trademarks related to products of the
       semiconductor business and provides that we grant back to Harris
       worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licenses recognizing transitional
       use of some visable trademarks assigned by Harris to us.

     o The Harris Trademark License Agreement provides for the grant by Harris
       to us of non-exclusive, royalty-free licenses recognizing transitional
       use of some visible trademarks and product-embedded trademarks, which
       embedded trademarks will not be eliminated until the relevant product is
       discontinued.

     o The Royalty Agreement provides for our payment to Harris of 2% of the
       revenue generated by the sales of the PRISM(R) chip sales until August
       13, 2004. As of August 31, 2000, we had paid Harris $593,670 in
       connection with the Royalty Agreement.

     In June 2000, we sold our assembly and test facilities in Malaysia along
with related intellectual property to ChipPAC in exchange for $52.5 million in
cash and preferred stock of ChipPAC that has an aggregate liquidation preference
of $17.5 million. We also assigned to ChipPAC patents, copyrights and technical
information used exclusively in or associated exclusively with our assembly and
test facilities in

                                       48
<PAGE>
Malaysia and granted ChipPAC a worldwide, nonexclusive, royalty-free license
under other of our patents, copyrights and technical information that is also
used in or related to the operation of the assembly and test facilities in
Malaysia. Any intellectual property rights in the bonding diagrams, test
programs, mask works and test boards uniquely related to our products for which
ChipPAC will provide packaging and test services under the supply agreement are
licensed to ChipPAC only for use in providing those services. We also entered
into a long term joint services agreement with ChipPAC in connection with the
sale under which each party is required to assist the other in a smooth
transition of each party's operations following the sale.

     Under our supply agreement with ChipPAC, we have agreed to continue to use
the Malaysian facility to provide 100% (until June 30, 2003), 90% (from July 1,
2003 to June 30, 2004) and 80% (from July 1, 2004 to June 30, 2005) of our
semiconductor package configuration assembly and test requirements for all
products assembled and tested at the Malaysian facility on the date of the
supply agreement and any new or additional products we may develop after that
date. In addition, ChipPAC will ensure that we are allocated 100% of the
utilized capacity that was in place on the date of the supply agreement.

     One of the principal shareholders of ChipPAC is an affiliate of Sterling,
our principal shareholder.

     The terms of the agreements listed above were the result of arms-length
negotiations and in our opinion are no less favorable to us than those that
could be obtained from non-affiliated parties.

                            DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

     Our capital stock consists of 600,000,000 authorized shares of common
stock, par value $.01 per share, divided into two classes consisting of
(a) 300,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, of which 59,677,611 shares are
outstanding and (b) 300,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, of which
41,738,580 shares are outstanding. Our capital stock also consists of 100,000
authorized shares of preferred stock, par value $.01 per share, none of which is
issued or outstanding.

     The following description of the terms and provisions of our capital stock
is not complete, and you should read our Bylaws and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation, which have been filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement
of which this prospectus is a part.

CLASS A COMMON STOCK

     The holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share
held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders other than
elections of directors. Our Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides for
cumulative voting for directors. With cumulative voting, at each election for
directors, each holder of Class A Common Stock is entitled to as many votes as
would equal the number of shares he or she holds multiplied by the number of
directors to be elected. The holder may cast all of his or her votes for a
single candidate or may distribute them among any number of candidates. Under
cumulative voting, a minority holder has a greater possibility of influencing
the election of directors because, for example, the minority holder can increase
the number of votes such holder may cast for an individual director. The holders
of Class A Common Stock will be entitled to such dividends as may be declared at
the discretion of our Board of Directors out of funds legally available for that
purpose. The holders of Class A Common Stock will be entitled to share ratably
with holders of Class B Common Stock in the net assets of our company upon
liquidation after payment or provision for all liabilities. A holder of Class A
Common Stock may convert any or all of his shares into an equal number of shares
of Class B Common Stock. We have never paid and we do not anticipate declaring
or paying any cash dividends on shares of our Class A Common Stock in the
foreseeable future. As of August 11, 2000, there were 8,900 holders of record of
our Class A Common Stock.

CLASS B COMMON STOCK

     Except as required by law, the holders of Class B Common Stock have no
voting rights. The holders of Class B Common Stock will be entitled to such
dividends as may be declared at the discretion of our Board of Directors out of
funds legally available for that purpose. The holders of Class B Common Stock
will be entitled to share ratably with holders of Class A Common Stock in the
net assets of our company upon liquidation after payment or provision for all
liabilities. A holder of Class B Common Stock may convert any or all of his
shares into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock, provided that
such conversion would be permitted only to the extent that the holder of such
shares to be converted certifies to us in writing that the holder would be
permitted under applicable law to hold the total number of shares of Class A
Common Stock which would be held after giving effect to the conversion. We have
never paid and we do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends on
shares of our Class B Common Stock in the foreseeable future. As of June 30,
2000, there were 2 holders of record of our Class B Common Stock.

PREFERRED STOCK

     Under our Restated Certificate of Incorporation, our Board of Directors has
the authority to issue up to 100,000 shares of preferred stock, but only in
connection with the adoption of a shareholder rights plan. A shareholder rights
plan may only be adopted by our Board of Directors with the approval of holders
of a majority of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock or with the
unanimous consent of our Board of Directors, unless Sterling and its affiliates
hold less than 15% of our outstanding common stock, in which case approval by a
majority of our Board of Directors is required. See "--Other Provisions of Our
Restated Certificate of Incorporation." If our Board of Directors has such
requisite authority, it will be authorized to issue preferred stock in
connection with a shareholder rights plan in one or more series, and to fix the
voting powers, designations, preferences, and relative, participating, optional
or other special rights and qualifications, limitations and restrictions of each
series, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of
redemption, liquidation preferences, and the number of shares constituting any
series. The ability of our Board of Directors to issue preferred stock could
have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or
discouraging a third party from acquiring, a majority of our outstanding Class A
Common Stock. Our Board of Directors' ability to establish the preferences and
rights of the shares of any

                                       53
<PAGE>
series of preferred stock may also afford holders of any preferred stock
preferences, powers and rights (including voting rights) senior to the rights of
holders of our Class A Common Stock. We have no present plans to issue any
shares of preferred stock.

OTHER PROVISIONS OF OUR RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION

     Our Restated Certificate of Incorporation contains provisions affecting the
rights of our shareholders and the powers of our Board of Directors, including
the following:

     o We are not subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the General
       Corporation Law of Delaware regulating takeovers. Section 203 generally
       makes it more difficult for a third party to take control of a company by
       prohibiting a third party owning more than 15% of the company's stock
       from entering into transactions with the company unless the board of
       directors or shareholders unaffiliated with the third party approve
       either the third party or the transaction at issue, before the third
       party becomes a 15% owner or the third party acquires at least 85% of the
       company's stock.

     o A shareholder rights plan can be adopted only with the consent of holders
       of a majority of outstanding Class A Common Stock or with the unanimous
       consent of our Board of Directors, except that if Sterling's and its
       affiliates' ownership is less than 15% of our outstanding common stock,
       then a shareholder rights plan can be adopted with the consent of a
       majority of our Board of Directors. A shareholder rights plan generally
       makes it more difficult for a hostile bidder to take control of a company
       by providing existing shareholders with special rights which would make
       it uneconomical for the third party to acquire additional interests. If
       our Board of Directors is authorized to and decides to implement a
       shareholder rights plan, the plan adopted by the Board may deter
       acquisitions which you might deem to be in your best interests.

     o Our Board of Directors must have no fewer than three and no more than
       seven members and may not be divided into classes. The term of each
       member of the Board of Directors expires at each annual shareholders'
       meeting. Having a minimum number of Directors ensures that cumulative
       voting will operate to protect the interests of minority shareholders,
       since with a smaller Board it would take a greater percentage of votes to
       elect one director. Similarly, by prohibiting a classified Board, our
       Restated Certificate of Incorporation ensures that shareholders may
       replace the entire Board at each annual election.

     o Shareholders may act by written consent, without a meeting and without
       notice or a vote. This provision enables shareholders to act on matters
       subject to a shareholder vote without waiting until the next annual or
       special meeting of shareholders.

     o Each of the provisions of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation
       described above, and the provision described above under "Preferred
       Stock" that limits the Board of Directors' ability to issue preferred
       stock other than in connection with a shareholder rights plan, may be
       amended only with the approval of holders of 75% of our outstanding Class
       A Common Stock. Amending other provisions requires approval by holders of
       a majority of our outstanding Class A Common Stock. The provision
       requiring a supermajority vote also cannot be amended without the consent
       of holders of 75% of the Class A Common Stock. If a third party--that is,
       a person or entity other than our principal shareholders or members of
       our management--acquires more than 40% of the Class A Common Stock, then
       the holders of a majority of the Class A Common Stock could amend the
       foregoing provisions. If, after any transfer by Sterling or its
       affiliates, Sterling and its affiliates together own less than 15% of our
       outstanding common stock, then holders of a majority of the Class A
       Common Stock can amend the supermajority provisions. The effect of each
       supermajority provision is that holders of 25% or more of our Class A
       Common Stock could block amendments to our Restated Certificate of
       Incorporation affecting the provisions described above.

WARRANTS RELATING TO THE ISSUANCE OF THE UNITS

     We originally issued and sold warrants, referred to as the Warrants, to
Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation, J.P. Morgan Securities, Inc. and Salomon
Smith Barney Inc. pursuant to a private placement by Intersil Holding and
Intersil of 200,000 units, each unit consisting of $1,000 principal amount of
13.25% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2009 and one Warrant to purchase 18.5185
shares of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price (the "Exercise Price") of
$0.0015. The Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of a Warrant may be subject to adjustment. The Warrants initially
entitle the holders to acquire, in the aggregate 3,703,707 shares of Class A
Common Stock.

                                       54
<PAGE>
     The Warrants may be exercised at any time after August 13, 2000; provided,
however, that the holder of Warrants will be able to exercise the Warrants only
if a shelf registration statement relating to the Class A Common Stock
underlying the Warrants is effective or the exercise of those Warrants is exempt
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, or the
Securities Act, and such securities are qualified for sale or exempt from
qualification u-nder the applicable securities laws of the states or other
jurisdictions in which such holders reside. We have filed a shelf registration
statement to cover the Warrants for resale and the issuance of the Class A
Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrants, and the Securities and Exchange
Commission has declared it effective. Unless earlier exercised, the Warrants
will expire on August 15, 2009 (the "Expiration Date"). We will give notice of
expiration not less than 90 nor more than 120 days prior to the Expiration Date
to the registered holders of the then outstanding Warrants. If we fail to give
the expiration notice, the Warrants will nevertheless expire and become void on
the Expiration Date.

WARRANTS RELATING TO THE 13.5% SUBORDINATED HOLDING PIK NOTE

     In connection with our issuance of the 13.5% Subordinated Holding PIK Note,
we issued to Citicorp Mezzanine Partners, L.P. warrants to purchase Class A
Common Stock. These warrants entitle the holder to purchase up to
1,911,149 shares of Class A Common Stock upon exercise of the warrants beginning
on August 13, 2001 and ending on August 15, 2009 at an exercise price of $0.0015
per share, subject to anti-dilution adjustments. In connection with the
registered underwritten public offering on September 20, 2000 and the exercise
of the over-allotment option by the underwriters on September 26, 2000,
Citicorp Mezzanine Partners, L.P. exercised warrants to purchase 360,633
shares of our Class A Common Stock which it sold in the offering.

SHAREHOLDERS' AGREEMENT

     Prior to our initial public offering, the then-existing shareholders of our
company entered into a Securities Purchase and Holders Agreement, which we refer
to as the Shareholders' Agreement, containing agreements among the stockholders
with respect to our capital stock and corporate governance.

     The Shareholders' Agreement contains provisions which restrict Citicorp
Venture Capital Ltd. or CVC, and its permitted transferees from effecting a
transfer of 50% or more of the shares of common stock owned by them without
offering the other parties to the Stockholders' Agreement an equal opportunity
to participate in the transaction or transactions. In addition, CVC and its
affiliates have the right to have observers present at meetings of our Board of
Directors if they are not represented on our Board of Directors as long as they
own at least 5% of the common stock then outstanding. The Shareholders'
Agreement continues to subject some of our executive officers' common stock to a
risk of repurchase by the Company.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

     In connection with their entry into the Shareholders' Agreement, the
then-existing shareholders of our Company also entered into a Registration
Rights Agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement"). According to the
Registration Rights Agreement, upon the written request of CVC and subject to
our option to defer action for 180 days, we will prepare and file a registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission concerning the
distribution of all or part of the shares held by CVC and use our best efforts
to cause such registration statement to become effective. If at any time we file
a registration statement for our common stock because of a request by CVC or
otherwise, we will use our best efforts to allow the other parties to the
Registration Rights Agreement to have their shares of our common stock (or a
portion of their shares under circumstances set forth in the Registration Rights
Agreement) included in the registered offering. We are not bound by this
requirement if we file a registration statement on Form S-8, Form S-4 or any
similar form in connection with an exchange offer or an offering solely to our
employees or existing shareholders, or a registration statement registering a
unit offering consisting of a public offering of our debt and equity securities
in which (i) not more than twenty percent of the gross proceeds received from
the sale of those securities is attributed to the equity securities and
(ii) after the public offering, we do not have a class of equity securities
required to be registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Most
registration expenses of the selling shareholders will be paid by us. We will
not pay expenses relating to underwriting commissions, brokerage fees and
transfer taxes applicable to the shares sold by the shareholders or in certain
cases the fees and expenses of any accountants or other representatives retained
by a selling shareholder.

 AND REGISTRANT

     The Transfer Agent and Registrar for the Class A Common Stock is Equiserve
Trust Company.

                      DESCRIPTION OF CERTAIN INDEBTEDNESS

     The following is a summary of certain indebtedness of Intersil Corporation,
or Intersil and of Intersil Holding. To the extent such summary contains
descriptions of documents relating to the notes, the senior credit facilities
and other loan documents, such descriptions do not purport to be complete and
are qualified in their entirety by reference to such documents, which are
available upon request to us.

NOTES

     On August 13, 1999, Intersil and Intersil Holding issued 200,000 units,
each unit consisting of $1,000 principal amount of the Notes of Intersil and one
warrant to purchase 18.5185 shares of Class A Common Stock, in connection with
the unit offering for gross proceeds of approximately $200.0 million. The Notes
were issued under an indenture dated as of August 13, 1999 (the "Indenture")
between Intersil and United States Trust Company of New York, as Trustee. The
warrants were issued under the Warrant Agreement between us and United States
Trust Company of New York, as warrant agent. The net proceeds of the unit
offering, together with the net proceeds of certain other funds, were used to
pay the cash consideration for the acquisition of the semiconductor business
from Harris and pay related fees and expenses. Under the terms of the Notes, we
were permitted, but were not required, to redeem up to $70.0 million principal
amount of the Notes with the net cash proceeds of our initial public offering at
a price of 113.25% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid
interest on the Notes. The amount repaid with the proceeds of our initial public
offering included $70.0 million of the principal amount of the Notes plus a
prepayment premium and accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

     The Notes were initially in the principal amount of $200.0 million and
mature on August 15, 2009. Interest on the Notes accrues at 13.25% per annum and
is payable semiannually in arrears on February 15 and August 15, commencing
February 15, 2000. Subject to certain covenants set forth in the Indenture,
Intersil may issue more Notes under the Indenture in an unlimited principal
amount. Any additional Notes that are actually issued will be treated as issued
and outstanding Notes (and as the same class as the initial Notes) for most
purposes. The Notes are unsecured senior subordinated obligations of Intersil,
are subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future Senior
Indebtedness (as defined in the Indenture) of Intersil, and are senior in right
of payment to all future Subordinated Indebtedness (as defined in the Indenture)
of Intersil. The Notes are guaranteed by Intersil Holding and each Subsidiary
Guarantor (as defined in the Indenture). The Guaranties are senior subordinated
obligations of Intersil Holding and the relevant Subsidiary Guarantor.

     On or after August 15, 2004, the Notes may be redeemed at the option of
Intersil, in whole or in part, at the following redemption prices (expressed as
percentages of principal amount at maturity), plus accrued and unpaid interest,
if redeemed during the 12 months beginning August 15 of the years
indicated below:

2008 and thereafter...............................................................     100.000
</TABLE>

     Upon a Change of Control (as defined in the Indenture), each holder of
Notes may require Intersil to repurchase all or any portion of the holder's
Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and
unpaid interest to the date of purchase.

     The Indenture contains certain covenants that, among other things, limit
(i) the incurrence of additional debt by Intersil and certain of its
subsidiaries, (ii) the payment of dividends on capital stock of Intersil and the
purchase, redemption or retirement of capital stock or subordinated
indebtedness, (iii) investments, (iv) certain transactions with affiliates, (v)
sales of assets, including capital stock of subsidiaries, and (vi) certain
consolidations, mergers and transfers of assets. The Indenture also prohibits
certain restrictions on distributions from certain subsidiaries. All of these
limitations and prohibitions, however, are subject to a number of important
qualifications.

SENIOR CREDIT FACILITIES

     General.  Intersil entered into senior credit facilities with a syndicate
of certain financial institutions, as lenders, Credit Suisse First Boston, New
York branch, as the Administrative Agent, Salomon Smith Barney Inc., as
Syndication Agent, and Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York, as
Documentation Agent. The description below is only a summary of the principal
terms of the senior credit facilities and related loan documents.

     Intersil has available up to $70.0 million of aggregate borrowing capacity,
consisting of a secured $70.0 million revolving line of credit (the "Revolving
Credit Facility"). Intersil may request, subject to lender approval, that the
amount of the Revolving Credit Facility be increased to an amount not to exceed
$150.0 million.

     Guaranties; Security.  Intersil's obligations under the senior credit
facilities are unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by Intersil
Holding and each of Intersil's existing and subsequently acquired or organized
domestic subsidiaries. Intersil's obligations and those of the guarantors under
the senior credit facilities are secured by a pledge of all of Intersil's
capital stock and by substantially all of the assets of Intersil Holding,
Intersil and each of Intersil's existing and subsequently acquired or organized
domestic (and, to the extent no adverse tax consequences will result, foreign)
subsidiaries. No foreign subsidiary is required to guarantee the senior credit
facilities and less than two-thirds of the capital stock of certain foreign
subsidiaries is required to be pledged to secure the senior credit facilities.

     Amortization; Interest; Fees; Maturity.  The Revolving Credit Facility is
available until 2005 unless terminated earlier under the terms of the senior
credit facilities.

     Borrowings under the senior credit facilities bear interest at a rate equal
to, at Intersil's option, either (i) the base rate (which is based on the prime
rate most recently announced by the Administrative Agent or the Federal Funds
rate plus one-half of 1%) or (ii) the applicable London interbank offered rate,
in each case plus the applicable margin. In addition, the senior credit
facilities are subject to a commitment fee of 0.50% per annum of the undrawn
portion of the Revolving Credit Facility, and letter of credit fees regarding
each letter of credit outstanding under the senior credit facilities equal to
(i) the applicable margin over the Adjusted LIBOR Rate (as defined in the Credit
Agreement) in effect for loans under the Revolving Credit Facility and
(ii) 0.25% per annum on the face amount of all outstanding letters of credit.

     Prepayments.  Voluntary prepayments may be made in whole or in part without
premium or penalty.

     Covenants and Events of Default.  The senior credit facilities contain,
among other things, covenants restricting Intersil's ability and its
subsidiaries' ability to dispose of assets, merge, pay dividends, repurchase or
redeem capital stock and indebtedness (including the notes), incur indebtedness
or guaranties, create liens, enter into agreements with negative pledge clauses,
make certain investments or acquisitions, enter into sale and leaseback
transactions, enter into transactions with affiliates, change Intersil's
business or make fundamental changes, and otherwise restrict corporate actions.
The senior credit facilities also contain a number of financial maintenance
covenants.

     The senior credit facilities also include events of default usual for these
types of credit facilities and transactions, including but not limited to
nonpayment of principal or interest, violation of covenants, incorrectness of
representations and warranties, cross defaults and cross acceleration,
bankruptcy, material judgments, ERISA, actual or asserted invalidity of the
guaranties or the security documents and certain changes of control of Intersil.
The occurrence of any event of default could result in the acceleration of
Intersil's and the guarantors' obligations under the senior credit facilities,
which could materially and adversely affect holders of Class A Common Stock.

                        SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

     We have 59,677,611 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding (excluding
shares issuable upon exercise of employee stock options, of which options to
purchase 2,967,322 shares, are issued and outstanding as of August 31, 2000) and
41,738,580 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding. Class A and Class B
shares are convertible into the other on a one-for-one basis. 41,904,405 shares
of Class A Common Stock, which includes the 12,650,000 shares sold at the public
offering on September 20, 2000 (including the exercise of the over-allotment
option by the underwriters), the 23,000,000 shares sold in our initial public
offering, 2,995,552 shares issued in connection with the exercise of warrants
(which does not include 360,633 shares issuable upon the early exercise of
warrants held by Citicorp Mezzanine Partners, L.P.), the 232,294 shares issued
in connection with the exercise of options and 3,026,559 shares issued in
connection with the acquisition of NWN are freely tradable without further
registration under the Securities Act, unless held by an "affiliate" of our
company as that term is defined in Rule 144. All of the remaining 17,773,206
shares of Class A Common Stock and the 41,738,580 shares of Class B Common
Stock, are "restricted securities," as such term is defined under Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. These shares are restricted
securities because they were issued in private transactions not involving a
public offering and may not be sold in the absence of registration other than in
accordance with Rule 144 or another exemption from registration under the
Securities Act and will be available for resale under Rule 144, as described
below. In addition, we can currently issue up to 4,149,948 shares of our Class
A Common Stock under an effective registration statement in connection with
future acquisitions, all of which will be freely tradable upon issuance.

LOCK-UP AGREEMENTS

     Our directors, executive officers and various shareholders, including the
selling shareholders have entered into lock-up agreements which generally
provide that these holders will not offer, sell, contract to sell, grant any
option to purchase or otherwise dispose of our common stock or any securities
exercisable for or convertible into our common stock owned by them before
December 15, 2000 without the prior written consent of the representatives of
the underwriters. The lock-up agreements executed by our employees and directors
also cover any shares they may acquire upon the exercise of options. Shares
subject to lock-up agreements may not be sold until these agreements expire or
are waived by Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation. In addition, shareholders
who received our common stock in the acquisition of NWN have entered into
lock-up agreements which restrict the disposition of 131,844 shares of common
stock and 79,106 shares of common stock prior to August 23, 2001 and August 23,
2002, respectively. A total of 296,540 shares of common stock received in the
acquisition are held by us in escrow until May 29, 2001.

RULE 144

     In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, if a minimum of one year
has elapsed since the later of the date of acquisition of the restricted
securities from the issuer or from an affiliate of the issuer, a person (or
persons whose shares of Class A Common Stock are aggregated), including persons
who may be deemed our affiliates would be entitled to sell within any
three-month period a number of shares of Class A Common Stock that does not
exceed the greater of:

     o one percent of the then-outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, which
       will equal approximately 596,776 shares; and

     o the average weekly trading volume during the four calendar weeks
       preceding the date on which notice of the sale is filed with the
       Securities and Exchange Commission.

     Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to restrictions as to the manner of
sale, notice requirements and the availability of current public information
about our company. In addition, under Rule 144(k), if a period of at least two
years has elapsed since the later of the date restricted securities were
acquired from our company or the date they were acquired from an affiliate of
our company, a shareholder who is not an affiliate of our company at the time of
sale and who has not been an affiliate of our company for at least three months
prior to the sale would be entitled to sell shares of Class A Common Stock in
the public market

                                       58
<PAGE>
immediately without compliance with the foregoing requirements under Rule 144,
unless otherwise restricted. Rule 144 does not require the same person to have
held the securities for the applicable periods.

     59,511,786 shares of Class A Common Stock (including shares of Class A
Common Stock issued upon conversion of the 41,738,580 outstanding shares of
Class B Common Stock) will be "restricted securities" and will be available for
sale in the open market, subject to the expiration of the 90-day lock-up period
described above as well as to the volume and other limitations under Rule 144.

RULE 144(K)

     Under Rule 144(k), a person who is not deemed to have been our affiliate at
any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially
owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least two years, may sell these
shares without complying with the manner of sale, public information, volume
limitation or notice requirements of Rule 144.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

     Some of our shareholders have the right to cause us to register the sale of
their shares under the Securities Act and our other current shareholders may
have the right to have their shares covered by the registration statement. See
"Description of Capital Stock--Registration Rights Agreement."

EMPLOYEE PLANS

     We filed a registration statement under the Securities Act to register
8,833,334 shares to be issued pursuant to our employee benefit plans. As a
result, any shares issued pursuant to the exercise of options or rights under
the 1999 Equity Compensation Plan or the Intersil Holding Corporation Employee
Stock Purchase Plan will also be freely tradable in the public market. However,
shares held by affiliates will still be subject to the volume limitation, manner
of sale, notice and public information requirements of Rule 144.

     As of August 31, 2000, we had granted options to purchase 3,227,484 shares
of common stock, (of which 232,294 have been exercised), and we had reserved
7,239,838 shares of common stock for possible future issuance under our 1999
Equity Compensation Plan.

     We have also reserved 1,333,334 shares of common stock for possible future
issuance under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan. See "Risk Factors--Risks
Relating to Future Sales," "Management--1999 Equity Compensation Plan" and
"Management--Employee Stock Purchase Plan."

                          OTHER RESTRICTIONS ON RESALE

     The Class A Common Stock offered by this prospectus is being registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, but this registration does not cover resale of
distribution by persons who receive Class A Common Stock issued by us in our
acquisitions. Affiliates (as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the
Securities Act of 1933) of entities acquired by us who do not become affiliates
of our company may not resell Class A Common Stock registered under the
registration statement to which this prospectus relates except pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering such shares,
or in compliance with Rule 145 promulgated under the Securities Act or another
applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
Generally, Rule 145 permits such affiliates to sell such shares immediately
following the acquisition in compliance with certain volume limitations and
manner of sale requirements. Under Rule 145, sales by such affiliates during any
three-month period cannot exceed the greater of (1) 1% of the shares of our
Class A Common Stock outstanding and (2) the average weekly reported volume of
trading of shares of our Class A Common Stock on all national securities
exchanges during the four calendar weeks preceding the proposed sale. These
restrictions will cease to apply under most other circumstances if the affiliate
has held the Class A Common Stock for at least two years, provided that the
person or entity is not then an affiliate of our company. Individuals who are
not affiliates of the entity being acquired and do not become affiliates of our
company will not be subject to resale restrictions under Rule 145 and, unless
otherwise contractually restricted, may resell shares of our Class A Common
Stock immediately following the acquisition without an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act. The ability of affiliates to resell shares
of our Class A Common Stock under Rule 145 will be subject to our company having
satisfied its reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, for specified periods prior to the time of sale.

                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

     Well will issue Class A Common Stock from time to time in connection with
acquisitions by us or our subsidiaries of other businesses, assets or
securities. We expect that the terms of the acquisitions involving the issuance
of securities covered by this prospectus will be determined by direct
negotiations with the owners or controlling persons of the businesses, assets or
securities to be acquired by us or our subsidiaries. No underwriting discounts
or commissions will be paid in connection with the issuance of our Class A
Common Stock, although finders' fees may be paid from time to time with respect
to specific mergers or acquisitions. Any person receiving such fees may be
deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933.

                                 LEGAL MATTERS

     The validity of the Class A Common Stock will be passed upon for us by
Dechert, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Dechert beneficially owns 80,300 shares of
our Class A Common Stock. Members of Dechert who provided legal advice in
connection with this offering beneficially own 2,500 shares of our Class A
Common Stock.

                INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

The Board of Directors
Intersil Holding Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Harris
Semiconductor Business (Semiconductor Business) (Predecessor), which was wholly
owned by Harris Corporation, as of July 2, 1999 and the related statement of
operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the two fiscal years
in the period ended July 2, 1999 and the six weeks ended August 13, 1999,
respectively. We have also audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet
of Intersil Holding Corporation (Successor) as of June 30, 2000 and the related
statements of operations, comprehensive income, shareholders' equity, and cash
flows for the 46 weeks ended June 30, 2000. Our audits also included the
financial statement schedule listed at Item 21. These financial statements and
financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying Predecessor consolidated financial statements were prepared on
the basis of presentation as described in Note A. The results of operations are
not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would be recorded
by Semiconductor Business on a stand-alone basis.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Intersil Holding
Corporation as the Successor and Predecessor companies at June 30, 2000 and
July 2, 1999 and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash
flows for each of the two years in the period ended July 2, 1999 and for the six
weeks and 46 weeks ended August 13, 1999 and June 30, 2000, respectively, on the
basis described in Note A, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States. Also, in our opinion, the related financial
statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the
information set forth therein.

NOTE A--ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

ORGANIZATION

     Intersil Holding Corporation (Intersil Holding or Successor) was formed on
August 13, 1999 through a series of transactions in which Intersil Holding and
its wholly-owned subsidiary, Intersil Corporation (Intersil), acquired the
semiconductor business (semiconductor business or Predecessor) of Harris
Corporation (Harris) (the acquisition). Intersil Holding currently has no
operations but holds common stock related to its investment in Intersil.
Intersil and its wholly-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries include the
operations of the Predecessor.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying Successor consolidated financial statements subsequent to
August 13, 1999 include the accounts of Intersil Holding and Intersil
(collectively, the Company). All material intercompany transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated balance sheet as of July 2, 1999
and the consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income and cash
flows for the fiscal years ended July 3, 1998 and July 2, 1999 and the six weeks
ended August 13, 1999 include the accounts of the semiconductor business, the
Predecessor company.

     Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements include the power,
communications, space and defense product lines of Harris' Semiconductor
Business that were purchased in the transaction. The transaction did not include
Harris' semiconductor suppression business or photomask operations or certain
patents in the memory field that were retained by Harris. The semiconductor
business, which was wholly-owned by Harris, designs, manufactures and sells
discrete semiconductors and standard and custom integrated circuits to the
semiconductor markets. The semiconductor business' manufacturing facilities
perform manufacturing operations related to other Harris Semiconductor Product
Lines. The semiconductor business was not a separate legal entity and the assets
and liabilities associated with the semiconductor business were components of a
larger business.

     The Predecessor's consolidated statements of operations include all
revenues and costs attributable to the semiconductor business. For cost of
sales, material costs are directly attributable to a product line and are
charged accordingly. Indirect costs are assigned using activity based costing.
Operating expenses (engineering, marketing, and administration & general) have
been allocated to the product lines based on sales or labor, as appropriate.
Harris corporate expense allocations were based on a percentage of the
semiconductor business' net sales. Interest expense was provided on direct
borrowings of the semiconductor business. Interest expense of Harris has not
been allocated to the semiconductor business.

     All of the allocations and estimates in the Predecessor's combined
statements of operations are based on assumptions that management believes are
reasonable under the circumstances. However, these allocations and estimates are
not necessarily indicative of the costs that would have resulted if the
semiconductor business had been operated on a stand alone basis.

     The semiconductor business sells products to other affiliated operations of
Harris. Sales to these operations are not material.

ACQUISITION OF HARRIS' SEMICONDUCTOR BUSINESS

     The total purchase price of the semiconductor business acquisition was
$614.3 million, which included transaction costs of approximately $7.8 million
and deferred financing costs of $12.2 million (Note H). The consideration paid
by Intersil Holding was $504.3 million in cash of which $420.0 million was
financed

through borrowings from the senior credit facilities, the 13.25% Senior
Subordinated Notes and 13.5% Subordinated Holding "Pay-In-Kind" (PIK) Note and
the issuance of a $90.0 million PIK Note note to Harris.

     The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting
and, accordingly, the operating results of the Semiconductor Business have been
included in Intersil's consolidated financial statements since the date of
acquisition. The total purchase price was allocated to the assets and
liabilities of the Semiconductor Business based upon their approximate fair
values. The fair values of the net assets acquired exceeded the purchase price
resulting in negative goodwill. This negative goodwill was allocated to the
identified intangibles and property and equipment based on their relative fair
values as follows (in millions).

     The appraisal of the acquired semiconductor business included $20.2 million
of purchased in-process research and development, which was related to various
products under development. This valuation represents the 10 year after-tax cash
flow of this in-process technology using a discount rate of 20%. The acquired
technology had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no future
alternative uses. Accordingly, it was written off at the time of the
acquisition. The remaining identified intangibles (developed technology,
customer base and assembled workforce) are being amortized over 5 to 11 years.

     In connection with the acquisition of the semiconductor business, Intersil
formulated a restructuring plan that included the termination of the employment
of 372 employees of the semiconductor business. At

      For the 46 weeks ended June 30, 2000, approximately $10.1 million of these
restructuring costs had been paid out. As of June 30, 2000, the restructuring
liability was $0.9 million. Intersil Holding will complete the restructing plan
by the end of August 2000.

NOTE B--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     FISCAL YEAR--The 1998 fiscal year includes the 53 weeks ended July 3, 1998;
fiscal year 1999 includes the 52 weeks ended July 2, 1999; and fiscal year 2000
includes the six weeks ended August 13, 1999 and the 46 weeks ended June 30,
2000.

     CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS--Intersil Holding considers all highly liquid
investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash
equivalents.

     INVENTORIES--Inventories are carried at the lower of standard cost, which
approximates actual cost, determined by the First-In-First-Out (FIFO) method, or
market.

     PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT--Machinery and equipment are carried on the
basis of cost. The estimated useful lives of buildings range between 5 and
50 years. The estimated useful lives of machinery and equipment range between 3
and 10 years. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method using the
estimated useful life of the asset.

     REVENUE RECOGNITION--Revenue is recognized from sales to all customers,
including distributors, when a product is shipped. Sales to distributors are
made under agreements which provide the distributors rights of return and price
protection on unsold merchandise they hold. Accordingly, sales are reduced for
estimated returns from distributors and estimated future price reductions of
unsold merchandise held by distributors. Product sales to two distributors for
the fiscal years ended July 3, 1998 and July 2, 1999, and the six weeks ended
August 13, 1999 and 46 weeks ended June 30, 2000 amounted to 19.0%, 16.6%, 29.3%
and 15.7%, respectively, of total product sales.

     RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT--Research and development costs, consisting of the
cost of designing, developing, and testing new or significantly enhanced
products, are expensed as incurred.

     RETIREMENT BENEFITS--Intersil Holding provides retirement benefits to
substantially all employees primarily through a retirement plan having
profit-sharing and savings elements. Contributions by Intersil Holding to the
retirement plan are based on profits and employees' savings with no other
funding requirements. Intersil Holding may make additional contributions to the
fund at its discretion.

NOTE B--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES--(CONTINUED)

     The savings element of the retirement plan is a defined contribution plan,
which is qualified under Internal Revenue Service Code Section 401(k). All
employees of the Company may elect to participate in the 401(k) retirement plan
(the "401(k) plan"). Under the 401(k) plan, participating employees may defer a
portion of their pretax earnings up to certain limits prescribed by the Internal
Revenue Service. The Company provides matching contributions under the
provisions of the plan. Employees fully vest in the Company's matching
contributions upon the completion of 7 years of service.

     Retirement benefits also include an unfunded limited healthcare plan for
U.S.-based retirees and employees on long-term disability. Intersil Holding
accrues the estimated cost of these medical benefits, which are not material,
during an employee's active service life.

     Retirement plans expense was $15.6 million in 1998, $14.8 million in 1999,
$1.4 million for the six weeks ended August 13, 1999 and $10.4 million for the
46 weeks ended June 30, 2000.

     INCOME TAXES--For the Predecessor financial statements, the semiconductor
business was included with its parent, Harris, in a consolidated federal income
tax return. Harris required each of its businesses to provide for taxes on
financial statement pre-tax income or loss at applicable statutory tax rates.
United States local amounts receivable or payable for current and prior years'
income taxes were treated as intercompany transactions and were recorded in the
Semiconductor Business equity. Intersil Holding follows the liability method of
accounting for income taxes. International current income taxes payable and
deferred income taxes resulting from temporary differences between the financial
statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities of Intersil Holding's
international subsidiaries are separately classified on the balance sheet.

     ASSET IMPAIRMENT--Intersil Holding accounts for long-lived asset impairment
under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of."
The Company recognizes impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations
when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows
estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying
amounts. The impairment loss is measured by comparing the fair value of the
asset to its carrying amount. Fair value is estimated based on discounted future
cash flows. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are recorded at the lower of
their carrying amount or estimated fair value less cost to sell.

     INTANGIBLES--Intangibles resulting from acquisitions are being amortized by
the straight-line method over five to 11 years. Recoverability of intangibles is
assessed using estimated undiscounted cash flows of related operations.
Intangibles that are not expected to be recovered through future undiscounted
cash flows are charged to expense when identified. Amounts charged to expense
are amounts in excess of the fair value of the intangible asset. Fair value is
determined by calculating the present value of estimated expected future cash
flows using a discount rate commensurate with the risks involved.

     FUTURES AND FORWARD CONTRACTS--When Intersil Holding sells products outside
the United States or enters into purchase commitments, the transactions are
frequently denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars. To minimize the
impact on revenue and cost from currency fluctuations, Intersil Holding enters
into currency exchange agreements that qualify for hedge accounting treatment.
It is Intersil Holding's policy not to speculate in foreign currencies. Currency
exchange agreements are designated as, and are effective as, hedges of foreign
currency commitments. In addition, these agreements are consistent with the
designated currency of the underlying transaction and mature on or before the
underlying transaction. Gains and losses on currency exchange agreements that
qualify as hedges are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the carrying
amount of the hedged asset, liability or commitment. Gains and losses on
currency exchange

NOTE B--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES--(CONTINUED)

agreements that do not qualify as hedges are recognized in operations based on
changes in the fair market value of the currency exchange agreement.

     FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION--The functional currency for the Malaysian
subsidiary was the U.S. dollar, and for other international subsidiaries it is
the local currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at current rates of
exchange, and income and expense items are translated at the weighted average
exchange rate for the year. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded
as a separate component of shareholders' equity (Business Equity in the
Predecessor's financial statements). Cumulative translation gains (losses) were
$(0.6) million and $1.6 million at July 2, 1999 and June 30, 2000, respectively.

     LOSS PER SHARE--Loss per share is computed and presented in accordance with
SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share" and the Securities and Exchange Commission
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98. Net loss per common share is presented for the
46 weeks ended June 30, 2000 only because it is not meaningful for earlier
periods since the Company did not have common stock outstanding for any of the
earlier periods.

     USE OF ESTIMATES--These statements have been prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and require
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

     RECLASSIFICATIONS--Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to
conform with current year classifications.

NOTE C--ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. (SFAS) 137, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities--Deferral of the Effective Date of
FASB Statement No. 133." SFAS 137 amends SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities," to defer its effective date to all fiscal
quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS 133 establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments including
standalone instruments, such as forward currency exchange contracts and interest
rate swaps or embedded derivatives and requires that these instruments be
marked-to-market on an ongoing basis. These market value adjustments are to be
included either in the income statement or shareholders' equity, depending on
the nature of the transaction. The Company is required to adopt SFAS 133 in the
first quarter of its fiscal year 2001. We believe that SFAS 133 will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.

     In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued SAB
No. 101. "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements," which provides guidance
on the recognition, presentation, and disclosures of revenue in financial
statements filed with the SEC. SAB No. 101 outlines the basic criteria that must
be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosures related to
revenue recognition policies. We believe that SAB No. 101 will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.

NOTE C--ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS--(CONTINUED)

     In April 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB
Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock
Compensation, an Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25." Among other issues, that
interpretation clarifies the definition of employees for purposes of applying
Opinion No. 25, the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a
non-compensatory plan, the accounting consequence of various modifications to
the terms of a previously fixed stock option or award and the accounting for an
exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. This
interpretation is effective July 1, 2000, but certain conclusions in the
interpretation cover specific events that occur after either December 15, 1998
or January 12, 2000. To the extent that this interpretation covers events
occurring during the period after December 15, 1998, or January 12, 2000, but
before the effective date of July 1, 2000, the effect of applying this
interpretation is recognized on a prospective basis from July 1, 2000. We are
currently reviewing stock grants to determine the impact, if any, that may arise
from implementation of this interpretation, although we do not expect the
impact, if any, to be material to our financial statements.

  13.25% Senior Subordinated Notes and Warrants

     On August 13, 1999, in connection with the acquisition of the Semiconductor
Business, Intersil completed an offering of 200,000 units consisting of $200
million of its 13.25% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2009 and warrants to
purchase 3,703,707 shares of Class A Common Stock of Intersil Holding. Each unit
consisted of $1,000 principal amount of 13.25% Senior Subordinated Notes of
Intersil and one warrant to purchase 18.5185 shares of Class A Common Stock of
Intersil Holding. The total gross proceeds from the sale of the 13.25% Senior
Subordinated Notes were $194.0 million, net of $6.0 million of deferred
financing fees. The $6.0 million deferred financing fees were treated as
additional interest related to the 13.25% Senior Subordinated Notes and
amortized over the life of the 13.25% Senior Subordinated Notes on an effective
yield method.

     The 13.25% Senior Subordinated Notes are unsecured and are fully and
unconditionally guaranteed by Intersil Holding and all of Intersil's current and
future domestic subsidiaries. The 13.25% Senior Subordinated Notes are not
guaranteed by Intersil's foreign subsidiaries. The 13.25% Senior Subordinated
Notes require semi-annual interest payments beginning on February 15, 2000
through maturity on August 15, 2009. The 13.25% Senior Subordinated Notes may be
redeemed at the option of Intersil Holding after August 15, 2004 upon the
payment of certain redemption premiums, although up to 35% of the 13.25% Senior
Subordinated Notes can be redeemed prior to August 15, 2002 with the proceeds of
certain equity offerings and upon the payment of certain redemption premiums.
The 13.25% Senior Subordinated Notes contain various restrictive covenants,
including limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, restrictions
and limitations on payment of dividends, making investments, engaging in
transactions with affiliates, consolidating, merging or transfering assets and
restrictions and limitations on the sales of certain assets, among others. The
13.25% Senior Subordinated Notes also require the maintenance of certain ratios.

     Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase 18.5185 shares of Intersil
Holding Class A Common Stock at a price of $.001 per share. The warrants are
exercisable beginning on the first anniversary of their issue date (August 13,
1999) and expire on August 15, 2009. Warrant holders have no voting rights. The
warrants were preliminarily valued at $0.3 million and will be treated as
additional interest related to the 13.25% Senior Subordinated Notes and
amortized over the life of the 13.25% Senior Subordinated Notes on an effective
yield method.

  Extinguishment of Debt

     On August 13, 1999, in connection with the acquisition of the semiconductor
business, Intersil entered into senior credit facilities with a syndicate of
financial institutions. The senior credit facilities include a $205.0 million
funded term loan facility (the "Tranche B Senior Term Facility") and a revolving
line of

NOTE H--LONG-TERM DEBT--(CONTINUED)

credit (the "Revolving Credit Facility"). The Revolving Credit Facility provides
for up to $70.0 million of which no amounts were outstanding as of June 30,
2000.

     The Revolving Credit Facility bears interest ranging from LIBOR + 2.00% to
LIBOR + 3.25%, depending on the results of applicable ratios. The Revolving
Credit Facility matures in 2005.

     The senior credit facilities are unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and
severally, by Intersil Holding, Intersil and existing and subsequently acquired
or organized domestic subsidiaries. The Company's obligations and those of the
guarantors under the Senior Credit Facilities are secured by a pledge of all of
Intersil's capital stock and by substantially all of the assets of Intersil
Holding, Intersil and each of Intersil's existing and subsequently acquired or
organized domestic (and, to the extent no adverse consequences will result,
foreign) subsidiaries. The senior credit facilities contain various restrictive
covenants, including, incurrence of indebtedness, payment of dividends, making
certain investments and acquisitions, disposing of assets, among others. The
senior credit facilities also require the maintenance of certain ratios.

     Also on August 13, 1999, in connection with the acquisition of the
semiconductor business, Intersil Holding issued to Harris a $90.0 million 11.13%
Seller Holding PIK Note and issued to Citicorp Mezzanine Partners, L.P. a
$30.0 million 13.5% Subordinated Holding PIK Note.

     On February 25, 2000, the Company issued 22,000,000 shares of common stock
at a price of $25.00 per share. From the proceeds of the initial public
offering, the Company paid off approximately $419.0 million of debt incurred
through the acquisition of the semiconductor business, including all amounts
then outstanding under the Tranche B Senior Term Facility, the 11.13% Seller
Holding PIK Note and the 13.5% Subordinated PIK Note. In connection with the
early extinguishment of debt, the Company recorded extraordinary charges (net of
tax) of $25.5 million.

     Other

     The other debt consists of five loans made by agencies of the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania with maturity dates ranging from 2003 to 2017 and are secured by
Intersil's manufacturing facility in Mountaintop, Pennsylvania, which has a net
carrying value of $4.6 million at July 2, 1999 and $4.2 million at June 30,
2000, respectively. The weighted average interest rate for this debt was 3.0% at
July 2, 1999 and June 30, 2000.

NOTE I--PREFERRED STOCK

     Intersil Holding has 100,000 shares of preferred stock authorized, stated
value of $1,000 per share. The rights of holders of preferred stock will be
stipulated at the time of issuance as determined pursuant to the adoption of a
shareholder rights plan. On August 13, 1999, Intersil Holding sold 83,434 shares
of its 12% Series A Cumulative Compounding Preferred Stock to certain buyers,
including Sterling Holding Company, LLC, Harris and certain members of
management. The $83.4 million received from the sale was used as a cash equity
contribution from Intersil Holding to Intersil for the acquisition of the
semiconductor business.

     On August 13, 1999, Intersil Holding granted to certain members of
management options to purchase 766.67 shares of Series A Preferred Stock at an
option price of $250 per share, and a sign-on bonus in the aggregate amount of
$575,025, representing the difference between the stated par value and the
option price. The preferred stock options vest immediately. Intersil Holding
recorded compensation expense for the $575,025 as of the grant date.

NOTE L--COMMON STOCK--(CONTINUED)

     Intersil Holding is authorized to issue 600.0 million shares of Intersil
Holding common stock, par value $0.01 per share, divided into two classes
consisting of 300.0 million shares of Intersil Holding Class A Common Stock and
300.0 million shares of Intersil Holding Class B Common Stock. Holders of
Class A Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held and holders of
Class B Common Stock have no voting rights. A holder of either class of Intersil
Holding common stock may convert any or all shares into an equal number of
shares of the other class of Intersil Holding common stock.

     On August 13, 1999, Intersil Holding sold 15.76 million shares of Class A
Common Stock and 50.91 million shares of Class B Common Stock for approximately
$5.0 million. The $5.0 million proceeds, along with the $83.4 million proceeds
from the sale of Series A Preferred Stock were used as a cash equity
contribution from Intersil Holding to Intersil for the acquisition of the
semiconductor business.

     On August 13, 1999, in connection with the issuance of the 13.5%
Subordinated Holding PIK Note, Intersil Holding issued to Citicorp Mezzanine
Partners, L.P. warrants to purchase 3,703,707 shares of its Class A Common Stock
at an exercise price of $.001 per share, subject to certain anti-dilution
adjustments. The warrants were valued at $0.3 million and were treated as
additional interest related to the 13.5% Subordinated Holding PIK Note. As
Intersil Holding has prepaid in full the 13.5% Subordinated Holding PIK Note
within 24 months after issuance, the number of shares subject to such warrants
was reduced to 2,222,224. These warrants may be exercised at any time after
August 13, 2001 and expire on August 15, 2009. The Company has agreed to the
early exercise of warrants to purchase 360,633 of the underlying shares.

     In consideration for the acquisition of No Wires Needed B.V. ("NWN"),
3.35 million shares (which includes 323,493 shares issuable upon the exercise of
options) of Intersil Holding Class A Common Stock were issued. (see Note Q)

     During the 46 weeks ended June 30, 2000, Intersil Holding recorded $0.9
million of unearned compensation for the excess of the fair value of the Class A
Common Stock over the grant price for stock sold to certain executives by the
majority shareholder of Intersil Holding. Upon the Company's initial public
offering, the stock sold became fully vested and the unearned compensation was
written off.

     Intersil Holding had an option to purchase 1,161,905 shares from a majority
shareholder at $0.075 per share pursuant to an agreement executed at the initial
capitalization. Intersil Holding repurchased the 1,161,905 shares in January
2000.

     In the third quarter of fiscal year 2000, approximately 1.2 million shares
of Class B Common Stock were exchanged for an equivalent number of Class A
Common Stock. The exchanged Class B Common Stock is included in the authorized
and unissued shares.

     The benefit related to tax deductions for the Company's stock option plans
is recorded as an increase to additional paid in capital when realized. For the
46 weeks ended June 30, 2000, the Company realized tax benefits of approximately
$2.1 million related to its stock option plans.

     In the year 2000, the Malaysian taxing authority converted its income tax
system to a self-assessment system. The new self-assessment system requires
Malaysian corporate taxpayers to begin making estimated tax payments in year
2000 based on year 2000 estimated taxable income. Previously, Malaysian
corporate taxpayers submitted tax payments following the year of assessment. In
fiscal year 1999, the Semiconductor Business made Malaysian taxing payments
based on fiscal year 1998's taxable income. As a result of the change in the
Malaysian taxing system, the semiconductor business was not required to make tax
payments on its fiscal year 1999 Malaysian taxable income, and therefore has not
provided a tax provision for Malaysian taxes for the fiscal year ended July 2,
1999, which would have amounted to approximately $15.1 million. The Malaysian
tax holiday is effective for Intersil's fiscal year ended July 2, 1999 only, and
does not impact the six weeks ended August 13, 1999 or the 46 weeks ended
June 30, 2000.

     United States income taxes have not been provided on undistributed earnings
of international subsidiaries because of Intersil Holding's intention to
reinvest these earnings. The determination of unrecognized deferred U.S. tax
liability for the undistributed earnings of international subsidiaries is not
practicable.

     Pretax income (loss) of international subsidiaries was $10.2 million in
fiscal year 1998, $41.9 million in fiscal year 1999, $(1.6) million for the six
weeks ended August 13, 1999 and $21.6 million for the 46 weeks ended June 30,
2000.

     Income taxes paid were $14.8 million in fiscal year 1998, $3.4 million in
fiscal year 1999, $0.2 million for the six weeks ended August 13, 1999 and
$0.6 million for the 46 weeks ended June 30, 2000.

     The Company has a tax year-end of December 31 for federal and state income
tax purposes and has estimated that as of December 31, 1999, it had a cumulative
federal and state operating loss carryforward of $17.0 million. The federal net
operating loss carryforwards will expire in 2020. The state net operating loss
carryforwards will expire in varying amounts beginning in 2005. Calculated as of

NOTE M--INCOME TAXES--(CONTINUED)

Company recorded a deferred tax asset associated with federal and state net
operating loss carryforwards of $14.0 million.

     The federal and state net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards could
be subject to limitation if, within any three year period prior to the
expiration of the applicable carryforward period, there is a greater than 50%
change in ownership of the Company.

     No valuation allowance has been provided in connection with the net
deferred tax asset as the Company expects to be able to utilize its deferred tax
assets against future taxable income. Based on the Company's projected taxable
income and estimates of future profitability, management has concluded that
operating income will more likely than not be sufficient to give rise to income
tax expense to cover all deferred tax assets.

NOTE O--FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     The carrying values of accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term
debt approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these assets
and liabilities. The fair value of long-term debt is based on quoted market
prices or pricing models using prevailing financial market information at the
date of measurement.

     Letters of credit are issued by Intersil during the ordinary course of
business through major financial institutions as required by certain vendor
contracts. As of June 30, 2000, Intersil had outstanding letters of credit
totaling $2.7 million.

     Intersil Holding markets its products for sale to customers, including
distributors, primarily in the United States, Europe and Asia/Pacific. Credit is
extended based on an evaluation of the customer's financial condition and
collateral is generally not required. Intersil Holding maintains an allowance
for losses based upon the expected collectibility of all accounts receivable.
Intersil Holding believes it is adequately reserved with regard to receivables
from its domestic and international customers.

NOTE O--FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS--(CONTINUED)

     In August 1999, Intersil Holding began to use foreign exchange contracts to
hedge anticipated foreign cash flow commitments up to six months. Hedges on
anticipated foreign cash flow commitments do not qualify for deferral and
therefore, gains and losses on changes in the fair market value of the foreign
exchange contracts are recognized in income. Total net gains on foreign exchange
contracts for the 46 weeks ended June 30, 2000 were $3.2 million. At June 30,
2000, open foreign exchange contracts were $30.9 million, all of which were to
hedge anticipated foreign cash flow commitments. For the year ended June 30,
2000, Intersil Holding purchased and sold $87.4 million of foreign exchange
forward contracts.

     Prior to August 1999, Intersil Holding used foreign exchange contracts and
options to hedge intercompany accounts and off-balance-sheet foreign currency
commitments. Specifically, these foreign exchange contracts offset foreign
currency denominated inventory and purchase commitments from suppliers, accounts
receivable from and future committed sales to customers and firm committed
operating expenses. Foreign currency financial instruments were used to reduce
the risks that arise from doing business in international markets. Such
contracts generally had a term of one year or less. At July 2, 1999, open
foreign exchange contracts were $22.0 million, all of which were to hedge
off-balance-sheet commitments. Additionally, for the year ended July 2, 1999,
the Semiconductor Business purchased and sold $120.7 million of foreign exchange
forward contracts.

     Deferred gains and losses are included on a net basis in the Consolidated
Balance Sheets as other assets and are recorded in operations as part of the
underlying transaction when recognized. At July 2, 1999, Intersil Holding had
deferred foreign exchange contract losses on future commitments of approximately
$28.6 million.

     Total open foreign exchange contracts and options at July 2, 1999 and
June 30, 2000, are described in the table below:

NOTE P--EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

  Equity Compensation Plan

     On November 5, 1999, Intersil Holding adopted the 1999 Equity Compensation
Plan (the "Plan"), which became effective on August 13, 1999, for salaried
officers and key employees. The Plan authorizes the grant of options for up to
7.5 million shares of Intersil Holding Class A Common Stock and can include
(i) options intended to constitute incentive stock options under the Internal
Revenue Code, (ii) non-qualified stock options, (iii) restricted stock,
(iv) stock appreciation rights, and (v) phantom share awards. The exercise price
of each option granted under the Plan shall be determined by a committee of the
Board of Directors (the "Board"). The maximum term of any option shall be ten
years from the date of grant for incentive stock options and ten years and one
day from the date of grant for non-qualified stock options. Options granted
under the Plan are exercisable at the determination of the Board, currently
vesting ratably over approximately 5 years. Employees receiving options under
the Plan may not receive in any one year period options to purchase more than
666,667 shares of common stock. During the 46 weeks ended June 30, 2000,
Intersil Holding granted 1,596,793 options to acquire Intersil Holding Class A
Common Stock at a price of $2.25 per share, 1,239,291 options at a price of
$25.00 per share, and 118,100 options at an average price of $45.65 per share.
The Company accounts for its Equity Compensation Plan in accordance with
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees." As such, compensation expense is recorded on the date of grant only
if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price.
During the 46 weeks ended June 30, 2000, the Company recorded no deferred
compensation. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock option plan been
determined consistent with SFAS Statement No. 123, the Company would have
reported a net loss of $43.7 million for the 46 weeks ended June 30, 2000.

     The Company estimates the fair value of each option as of the date of grant
using a Black-Scholes pricing model with the following weighted average
assumptions.

  Plan ("the ESPP") whereby eligible employees can purchase shares of Intersil
  Holding's common stock. Intersil has reserved 1,333,334 shares of common stock

  specified dates. In no event, may any participant purchase more than $25,000
  worth of shares in any calendar year and no more than 16,667 shares may be

NOTE Q--ACQUISITION OF NO WIRES NEEDED B.V.

     On May 29, 2000, Intersil Holding acquired 100% of the outstanding capital
stock of Bilthoven, The Netherlands-based No Wires Needed B.V. Consideration for
the acquisition of NWN was 3.35 million shares of Intersil Holding Class A
Common Stock valued at $111.3 million at the date of closing. The NWN
acquisition has been accounted for by the purchase method of accounting and,
accordingly, the results of operations of NWN have been included in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements since the acquisition date. The
preliminary purchase price exceeded the fair value of the net tangible assets
acquired by approximately $109.0 million. NWN had completed all in-process
research and development programs prior to its acquisition. Therefore, none of
the preliminary purchase price in excess of the fair value of the net tangible
assets was allocated to purchase in-process research and development. The
preliminary purchase price in excess of fair value of net tangible assets was
allocated to goodwill, which will be amortized on a straight-line basis over
seven years.

     The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations are
presented as if the NWN acquisition occurred on August 14, 1999 (in millions,
except per share data):

NOTE S-- FINANCIAL INFORMATION FOR GUARANTOR AND NON-GUARANTOR SUBSIDIARIES

     Intersil Holding is a holding company for Intersil. All of the operations
are conducted through Intersil and its wholly-owned domestic and foreign
subsidiaries. On August 13, 1999, in connection with the acquisition, Intersil
issued the Notes and entered into the Senior Credit Facilities (Note H), which
are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by
Intersil Holding (Parent), Intersil and all of Intersil's wholly-owned current
and future domestic subsidiaries (the "Guarantor Subsidiaries"). Intersil's
wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries are not guarantors (the "Non-Guarantor
Subsidiaries"). In management's opinion, separate financial statements of the
Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries are not material
to investors.

     The condensed consolidated financial information presented below includes
the Predecessor consolidated balance sheet as of July 2, 1999 and the
Predecessor consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the fiscal
years ended July 3, 1998, and July 2, 1999, and the six weeks ended August 13,
1999 for the Predecessor Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. The condensed
consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2000 and the condensed consolidated
statements of income operations and cash flows for the 46 weeks ended
June 30, 2000 reflect the Parent, Guarantor Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor
Subsidiaries.

                     INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

ITEM 20.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

     As permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Restated
Certificate of Incorporation of the Issuer provides that directors of the Issuer
shall not be personally liable to the Issuer or its stockholders for monetary
damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for
any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Issuer or its stockholders,
(ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the
Delaware General Corporation Law, relating to prohibited dividends or
distributions or the repurchase or redemption of stock, or (iv) for any
transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit. In
addition, the By-laws of the Issuer provide for indemnification of the Issuer's
officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a corporation
may indemnify any persons, including officers and directors, who were or are, or
are threatened to be made, parties to any threatened, pending or completed legal
action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such corporation), by
reason of the fact that such person was an officer, director, employee or agent
of such corporation or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as
an officer, director, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses
(including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement
actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action,
suit or proceeding, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation's best interests
and, for criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe that his
conduct was unlawful. A Delaware corporation may indemnify officers and
directors in an action by or in the right of the corporation under the same
conditions, except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial
approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation.
Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the
defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him
against the expenses that such officer or director actually and reasonably
incurred. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling an
Issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Issuer has been informed that
in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

     The directors and officers of the Issuer are insured against certain
liabilities under the Issuer's directors' and officers' liability insurance.

     The foregoing summary of the Delaware General Corporation Law and of the
Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws of the Issuer is qualified in its
entirety by reference to the relevant provisions of the Delaware General
Corporation Law and of the Issuer's Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws,
which are filed as exhibits to this Registration Statement.

ITEM 22.  UNDERTAKINGS

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

     The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

          (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
     made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

             (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
        Securities Act of 1933;

             (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
        the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent
        post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
        aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information in the
        registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
        decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
        securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any
        deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering
        range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the
        Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in
        volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the
        maximum aggregate offering

                                      II-2
<PAGE>
        price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the
        effective registration statement; and

             (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan
        of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement
        or any material change to such information in the registration
        statement;

          (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
     Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment shall be deemed a new
     registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
     offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
     bona fide offering thereof;

          (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
     any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
     termination of the offering.

          (4) To respond to requests for information that is incorporated by
     reference into the prospectus pursuant to Item 4, 10(b) 11 or 13 of this
     form, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the
     incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means.
     This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the
     effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding
     to the request.

          (5) To supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information
     concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein,
     that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when
     it became effective.
