The Psion Directors unanimously recommend that Psion Shareholders accept the Offer, as they have each irrevocably undertaken to do (or procure to be done) in respect of their own entire beneficial holdings of Psion Shares.

Psion Shareholders are advised to be very wary of any unsolicited advice, offers to buy shares or any other correspondence in connection with the Offer that does not originate from Motorola Solutions, Psion, the Receiving Agent or Psion Shareholders' own stockbrokers.

In accordance with Rule 26.1 of the Takeover Code, a copy of this announcement, the Offer Document and the Form of Acceptance will be made available free of charge, subject to certain restrictions relating to persons resident in Restricted Jurisdictions, on Motorola Solutions' website at www.motorolasolutions.com/disclosure and Psion's website at http://investorrelations.psion.com by no later than 12 noon (London time) on 13 July 2012.
