EXPLANATORY NOTE
     Conexant Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant”), is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-8 Registration Statement to deregister certain securities originally registered by the Registrant pursuant to its Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on March 15, 2004 (Commission File No. 333-113595 and referred to herein as the “Registration Statement”) with respect to shares of the Registrant’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), thereby registered for offer or sale pursuant to the Conexant Systems, Inc. 2000 Non-Qualified Stock Plan (the “Plan”). Prior to giving effect to the Registrant’s June 30, 2008 reverse stock split, a total of 18,700,000 shares of Common Stock were initially registered for issuance under the Registration Statement.
     Effective on April 19, 2011, pursuant to the terms of that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 20, 2011, by and between the Registrant, Gold Holdings, Inc. (“Parent”) and Gold Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), Merger Sub merged with and into the Registrant (the “Merger”) with the Registrant surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. Pursuant to the Merger, each outstanding share of Common Stock was converted into the right to receive $2.40 in cash, without interest and subject to any applicable withholding tax.
     As a result of the Merger, the Registrant has terminated the offering of the Common Stock pursuant to its existing registration statements, including the Registration Statement, and no future awards will be made under the Plan. The purpose of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-8 Registration Statement is to deregister any and all of the previously registered shares of Common Stock that remain available for issuance under the Plan (the “Plan Shares”). The Plan Shares are hereby deregistered.
