On January 26, 2017, the Board of Directors of Silicon Laboratories Inc. (the “Company”) approved and adopted the Company’s Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Restated Bylaws”), effective immediately.

The foregoing description of the Restated Bylaws does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Restated Bylaws, which is filed as Exhibit 3.2 hereto, and is incorporated into this report by reference.
