TABLE OF CONTENTS
On July 24, 2009, Analog Devices, Inc. (“Analog” or the “Company”) made available to employees
supplemented questions and answers regarding the proposed stock option exchange program (the
“Option Exchange Program”). That employee communication is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
The employee communication attached as an exhibit to this Schedule TO does not constitute an offer
to holders of the Company’s outstanding stock options to tender those options.
The Option Exchange Program has not yet commenced. Analog will file a Tender Offer Statement on
Schedule TO with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) upon the commencement of the Option
Exchange Program. Persons who are eligible to participate in the Option Exchange Program should
read the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO and other related materials when those materials
become available, because they will contain important information about the Option Exchange
Program.
Analog shareholders and option holders will be able to obtain the written materials described above
and other documents filed by Analog with the SEC free of charge from the SEC’s website at
www.sec.gov. In addition, shareholders and option holders may obtain free copies of the documents
filed by Analog with the SEC by directing a written request to: Analog Devices, Inc. One Technology
