(d)

On January 17, 2013, the Board of Directors of Motorola Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) elected Anne R. Pramaggiore to the Board of Directors, effective immediately, to fill the vacant seat created by Ms. Pramaggiore’s resignation while she sought approval from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission required for a person to simultaneously hold an officer or director position at a public utility and at certain other types of companies. Ms. Pramaggiore will serve until the Company’s 2013 Annual Meeting and the election and qualification of her successor or, if earlier, her death or resignation or removal from the Board of Directors.

Ms. Pramaggiore will receive the standard compensation received by non-employee directors. This compensation arrangement was described in the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed on March 12, 2012 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. As disclosed in the definitive proxy statement, a non-employee director will be granted deferred stock units, pro-rated based on the number of months served with a value of $11,666.67 per month, divided by the closing price of Company Stock on the day of election.

On January 17, 2013, the Board of Directors also appointed Ms. Pramaggiore as a member of the Governance and Nominating Committee.

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On January 17, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company amended the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaw Amendment”). The Bylaw Amendment: (i) establishes the record date and other procedures for stockholder action by written consent, (ii) requires director nominees proposed by a stockholder to submit a completed and signed questionnaire and make certain representations and agreements by the advance notice deadline, (iii) requires disclosure of additional categories of information and clarifies existing disclosure requirements with respect to the Company’s existing advance notice provisions for shareholder-proposed director nominations and other business, and (iv) modifies the advance notice deadline for stockholder proposals (other than proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) from at least 45 days before the anniversary of the date on which the Company filed its definitive proxy materials for the previous year’s annual meeting of stockholders to at least 60 days before such date. The foregoing summary is qualified by the full text of the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended and restated to reflect the Bylaw Amendment, which is included as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
