Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

Motorola Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) is pleased to announce that on November 18, 2025, the size of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) was increased from seven to eight members and Dr. Mark E. Lashier joined the Board as a director and a member of the Governance and Nominating Committee, effective immediately. Dr. Lashier will serve until the Company’s 2026 Annual Meeting and the election and qualification of his successor or, if earlier, his death or resignation from the Board.

Dr. Lashier is currently the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Phillips 66, an integrated downstream energy provider.

Dr. Lashier will receive the standard compensation received by non-employee directors. This compensation arrangement is described in the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed on March 27, 2025 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. As disclosed in the definitive proxy statement, a non-employee director will receive his or her equity compensation in the form of a grant of deferred stock units (prorated based on the number of full months served until the next annual meeting of shareholders) with a value of $20,416.67 per month, divided by the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the day on which the director’s election to the Board is effective.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Dr. Lashier and any other person pursuant to which Dr. Lashier was elected as a director of the Company, nor does Dr. Lashier have any direct or indirect material interest in any related party transaction required to be disclosed under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
