ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER.
(a) The issuer is Motorola, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company").
The address of the principal offices of the Company is 1303 East

(b) This statement relates to the Company's Liquid Yield Option Notes Due
2009 (the "Notes"). As of August 5, 1994, there were $336,353,000 in
aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding. The Notes are
convertible at any time, at the option of the holder of a Note, into
18.268 shares of the Company's common stock, $3 par value per share,
subject to adjustment for dilutive events such as stock dividends or
stock splits (the shares being herein referred to as the "Shares").
Pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of September 1, 1989 between the
Company and First National Bank of Chicago, pursuant to which the
Notes were issued (the "Indenture"), the holders of the Notes have the
rights to require the Company to purchase the Notes on September 7,
1994 (the "Purchase Date") for $411.99 per $1,000 principal amount of
Notes (the "Purchase Price"). The Company has the option to pay the
Purchase Price in cash, Extension Notes (as such term is defined in
the Indenture) or in Shares with a value equal to the Purchase Price.
The Company will notify holders of the Notes twenty (20) days prior to
the Purchase Date that, if any holders require the Company to purchase
any Notes, the Company will elect to pay the Purchase Price in cash.
As to any officer, director or affiliate of the Company who is the
holder of any Notes and who elects to require the Company to purchase
any or all of them on the Purchase Date, the Company will do so as
described above, pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.
The requirement to purchase the Notes terminated on September 7, 1994.
As of that date, holders of $140,000 in principal amount of Notes had
exercised their rights to require the purchase of the Notes by the
Company.

Exchange (the "NYSE"). The high and low sales prices of the Notes, as
