                                  THE COMPANY

  "Motorola" (which may be referred to as "we", "us" or "our") means Motorola,
Inc. or Motorola, Inc. and its subsidiaries, as the context requires. "Motorola"
is a registered trademark of Motorola, Inc.

  Motorola is a global leader in providing integrated communications solutions
and embedded electronic solutions.  These include:

     *   Software-enhanced wireless telephone, two-way radio, messaging and
satellite communications products and systems, as well as networking and
Internet-access products, for consumers, network operators, and commercial,
government and industrial customers.

     *   Embedded semiconductor solutions for customers in networking,
transportation, wireless communications and imaging and entertainment markets.

     *   Embedded electronic systems for automotive, communications, imaging,
manufacturing systems, computer and industrial markets.

     *   Digital and analog systems and set-top terminals for broadband cable
television operators.

  Motorola is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware as
the successor to an Illinois corporation organized in 1928. Motorola's principal
executive offices are located at 1303 East Algonquin Road, Schaumburg, Illinois
60196, telephone: (847) 576-5000.


                                USE OF PROCEEDS

  All of the net proceeds from the sale of the Motorola shares will go to the
shareholders who offer and sell their shares.  Accordingly, Motorola will not
receive any proceeds from sales of the Motorola shares.


                             SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

  The selling shareholders are non-employee directors of Motorola who elected in
December 1998 to receive shares of Common Stock (which are subject to certain
transfer restrictions) from Motorola in lieu of their accrued benefits under the
retirement plan for non-employee directors (or their donees, pledgees,
transferees or successors-in-interest), as described below.

  In February 1996, Motorola's Board of Directors voted to terminate the
retirement plan for any non-employee director not participating in the plan and
to freeze this pension plan for the then current non-employee directors.
Participating non-employee directors with accrued benefits under this pension
plan continued to be entitled to receive payment of their accrued benefits.

  In November 1998, Motorola's Board of Directors voted to permit current non-
employee directors who were entitled to benefits under the pension plan to
convert their accrued interests in the pension plan into shares of Common Stock
(subject to certain transfer restrictions).  In December 1998, the directors who
so elected were issued shares of Common Stock.  A director may not transfer
these shares of Common Stock until the time he or she is no longer a director of
Motorola due to his or her (i) failure to

                                       4
<PAGE>

stand for election or to be re-elected or (ii) total and permanent disability or
death. If these shares are transferred prior to such time the shares will be
forfeited. If the director's service on the Motorola Board of Directors
terminates for any reason other than that described above, or if the director
engages in any activity which is determined to be in competition with any
activity of Motorola, the shares must be sold back to Motorola at the price the
director paid to Motorola. Motorola is registering these shares of Common Stock
on behalf of the electing directors.

  In addition, one or more of these selling shareholders may donate as gifts,
pledge to secure obligations or transfer in a partnership distribution or other
non-sale related transfer, some or all of their shares of Common Stock. The sale
of shares by a donee, pledgee, transferee or successor-in-interest of a selling
shareholder named below are also included in this prospectus and if Motorola is
notified by a selling shareholder that a donee, pledgee, transferee or
successor-in-interest intends to sell more than 500 shares of Common Stock (or
such other number of shares as may be deemed to be de minimis by the SEC staff),
a supplement to this prospectus will be filed.

  The table below indicates, as of March 31, 2000, for each of the selling
shareholders, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned and the
number of shares to be offered for each selling shareholder's account.  The
number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by each of the selling
shareholders after completion of the offering (assuming all shares offered
hereunder are sold and that the selling shareholder does not acquire additional
shares of Common Stock before the completion of this offering) is also shown.
None of the selling shareholders, nor the donees, pledgees, transferees or
successors-in-interest of the selling shareholders, is anticipated to own more
than 1% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock after the offering is
completed.

                             PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

  The selling shareholders, including any donees, pledgees, transferees or
successors-in-interest who receive shares from a selling shareholder, may offer
their Motorola shares of Common Stock at various times in one or more of the
following transactions (which may involve block transactions, ordinary brokerage
transactions and transactions in which brokers solicit purchases):

     *   on any of the securities exchanges where our Common Stock is listed,
including the New York Stock Exchange or the Chicago Stock Exchange, or in
special offerings, exchange distributions or secondary distributions pursuant
and in accordance with the rules of such exchanges;

     *   in the over-the-counter market;

     *   in negotiated transactions or otherwise, including an underwritten
offering;

     *   in connection with short sales of the shares of Common Stock;

     *   by pledge to secure debts and other obligations;

     *   in connection with the writing of non-traded and exchange-traded call
options, in hedge transactions and in settlement of other transactions in
standardized or over-the-counter options, if permitted under the securities
laws; or

     *   in a combination of any of the above transactions.

  The selling shareholders may sell their shares at market prices prevailing at
the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices, at
negotiated prices or at fixed prices.

  The selling shareholders may sell their shares directly to purchasers or may
use broker-dealers to sell their shares.  Broker-dealers who sell the shares may
receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions, or commissions from
the selling shareholders or they may receive compensation from purchasers of the
shares for whom they acted as agents or to whom they sold the shares as
principal, or both. (The compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be
in excess of customary commissions.)

  The selling shareholders and these broker-dealers may be deemed to be
"underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Any commissions received by such broker-dealers and any profit on the resale of
the shares sold by them while acting as principals might be deemed to be
underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act of 1933.

     Motorola will indemnify the selling shareholders and any underwriter of a

Securities Act of 1933. The selling shareholders may agree to indemnify any
agent, dealer or broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving sales
of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act of 1933.

market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933

Item 15.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers

  Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law contains detailed
provisions for indemnification of directors and officers of Delaware
corporations against expenses, judgments, fines and settlements in connection
with litigation.

  The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation and its Directors' and
Officers' Liability Insurance Policy provides for indemnification of the
directors and officers of the Company against certain liabilities.

Item 16.  List of Exhibits

  The exhibits to this Registration Statement are listed in the Exhibit Index
elsewhere herein.

Item 17.  Undertakings

  The Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Company's annual report
pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be
deemed to be 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.

  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Act may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant
to the provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Company's
Restated Certificate of Incorporation or otherwise, the Company has been advised
that in the opinion of the 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 Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit
or proceeding) is asserted against the Company by such director, officer, or
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the
Company 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 Company hereby undertakes:

                                       i
<PAGE>

  (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 set forth 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 Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under
the Securities Act of 1933 if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set
forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
registration statement.

      (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.

        Provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if
the registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or
section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by
reference in the registration statement.

  (2)   That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be 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.
