EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
A total of 4,000,000 shares of common stock of Texas Instruments
Incorporated (the "Company" or "TI") were registered by Registration Statement
on Form S-8, File No. 33-21407, to be issued in connection with the TI
Employees 1988 Stock Option Purchase Plan (the "1988 Plan"). On April 17,
1997, the stockholders of the Company approved the TI Employees 1997 Stock
Purchase Plan (the "1997 Plan"), which replaces the 1988 Plan. Both the 1988
Plan and the 1997 Plan are intended to qualify as "employee stock purchase
plans" under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from
time to time. Two million three hundred thousand (2,300,000) shares of common
stock of the Company which were registered in connection with the 1988 Plan
have not been issued under the 1988 Plan and, pursuant to Instruction E to
Form S-8 and the telephonic interpretation of the Securities and Exchange
Commission set forth at pages 137-38 of the Division of Corporation Finance's
Manual of Publicly-Available Telephone Interpretations (January 1997), are
carried forward to, and deemed covered by this Registration Statement on Form
S-8 in connection with the 1997 Plan.

The following documents have been filed by the Company with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and are hereby incorporated herein by reference
and made a part of this registration statement:
1. The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1996;
2. The Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended

January 17, 1997, March 7, 1997, March 14, 1997 and April 21, 1997; and
4. The description of the Company's common stock set forth in the
Company's Registration Statement on Form 10 filed with the Commission pursuant
to Section 12 of the Exchange Act, and the descriptions concerning changes in
securities contained in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended June 30, 1988 relating to the Company's Share Purchase Rights
Plan, together with any amendment or report filed with the Commission for the
purpose of updating such descriptions.
All documents filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to
Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14, or 15(d) of the Exchange Act subsequent to the date
of this registration statement and prior to the filing of a post-effective
amendment which indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or
which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be
incorporated herein by reference and to be a part hereof from the date of
filing of such documents. Any statement contained herein or in a document
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed
to be modified or superseded for purposes of this registration statement to
the extent that a statement contained herein or in any subsequently filed
document which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies
or supersedes such statement. Any such statements so modified or superseded
shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part
of this registration statement.
Item 4. Description of Securities
Not Applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
Not Applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
The General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, at Section 145,
provides, in pertinent part, that a corporation may indemnify any person who
was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened,
pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of
the corporation), by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer,
employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of
the corporation as the director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such
action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any
action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon
a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a
presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had
reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. In addition, the
indemnification of expenses (including attorneys' fees) is allowed in
derivative actions, except no indemnification is allowed in respect to any
claim, issue or matter as to which any such person has been adjudged to be
liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the Court of
Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought decides that
indemnification is proper. To the extent that any such person succeeds on the
merits or otherwise, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including
attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection
therewith. The determination that the person to be indemnified met the
applicable standard of conduct, if not made by a court, is made by the
directors of the corporation by a majority vote of the directors not party to
such an action, suit or proceeding even though less than a quorum or, if there
are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal
counsel in a written opinion or by the stockholders. Expenses may be paid in
advance upon the receipt, in the case of officers and directors, of
undertakings to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that
the person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized
in this section. A corporation may purchase indemnity insurance.
The above described indemnification and advancement of expenses, unless
otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who
has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and inure to the
benefit of such person's heirs, executors and administrators.
Article VI, Section 2 of the Company's By-laws provides that the Company shall
indemnify its officers and directors for such expenses, judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement to the full extent permitted by the laws of the
State of Delaware.
Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended, permits
a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director
of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its
stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director,
except for liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to
the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good
faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law,
(iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv) for
any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Article Seventh of the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation
contains such a provision.
Under insurance policies of the Company, directors and officers of the Company
may be indemnified against certain losses arising from certain claims,
including claims under the Securities Act of 1933, which may be made against
such persons by reason of their being such directors or officers.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed
Not Applicable.

Item 9. Undertakings
The Company hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made of the
securities registered hereby, a post-effective amendment to this
registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of this registration statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or
in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
information set forth in this registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in this registration
statement or any material change to such information in this
registration statement;
provided, however, that the undertakings set forth in paragraphs 1(i)
and 1(ii) above do not apply if the information required to be included
in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in
periodic reports filed by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or Section
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by
reference in this registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and
the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of
the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.
The Company hereby further undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Company's
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee
benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this registration
statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Company pursuant to the provisions set forth or described in Item 6 of this
registration statement, or otherwise (but that term shall not include the
insurance policies referred to in Item 6), the Company has been advised that
in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification
is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company
in a successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted against
the Company by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with
the securities registered hereby, the Company will, unless in the opinion of
its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by
it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
