Dear Valued CoolRunner Customer,

We are pleased to inform you of a change in ownership of the CoolRunner
product
family. Philips Semiconductors has elected to sell its CoolRunner
Programmable
Logic business to Xilinx Inc. This sale includes the CoolRunner XPLA
and the
CoolRunner 22V10 devices. The CoolRunner product family will
benefit from
dedicated and expanding support due to the new arrangement.

Xilinx intends to keep and enhance the CoolRunner product line. In
the near
term, the primary goal during the transition is maintaining the same
level of
service and support you have come to expect of the CoolRunner product
group.

Philips Semiconductors and Xilinx are grateful for your
understanding and
patience in this time of transition. If you have any questions,
please feel
free to call us at 1-888-COOLPLD or email your
questions to
cool...@abq.sc.philips.com.

Sincerely,

Xilinx Inc. and the CoolRunner product group
