Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

 

On December 2, 2004, ON Semiconductor Corporation (“Company”) notified one of its information technology service providers that the Company will terminate its outsourcing agreement (“Agreement”) with that provider effective March 6, 2005. The primary reason for the decision to terminate the Agreement is the planned migration from the legacy information systems of the Company to an upgraded information system with enhanced compatibility to its existing accounting system that will replace the functionality of the legacy information systems provided under the Agreement. In conjunction with the planned migration, the Company also terminated a second outsourcing agreement with a different service provider, which provides related data processing services. The migration is planned to take place during the February 2005 to March 2005 timeframe.

 

The early termination of these agreements is expected to result in cash restructuring and other charges of approximately $2.2 million. All payments related to these charges are expected to be completed by the second quarter of 2005 and no cash payments are anticipated during 2004.
