(the "Issuer"), a public company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of The Netherlands. The principal executive office of the Issuer is located at High Tech Campus 60, 5656 AG Eindhoven, The Netherlands. Information reported in the Original 13D, as amended or superseded by information contained in the Prior Amendments remains in effect except to the extent that it is amended or superseded by information contained in this Amendment.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Item 5 of the Original 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:
(a) PPTL LP directly owns 6,768,071 shares of Common Stock representing approximately 2.72% of the outstanding Common Stock, based on 249,054,000 shares of Common Stock outstanding (as reported in the Form 6-K Report of Foreign Private Issuer, filed on August 2, 2013, File No. 001-34841).
GP does not directly own any shares of Common Stock but, as the general partner of PPTL LP, has the power to direct the voting and disposition of all of the 6,768,071 shares of Common Stock held by PPTL LP. Philips Pension Trustees is the sole member of GP (and may therefore elect GP’s board of directors) and is the sole limited partner of PPTL LP. As such, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have formed a group within the meaning of Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and each of GP and Philips Pension Trustees may be deemed to possess shared beneficial ownership of the 6,768,071 shares of Common Stock held by PPTL LP.
KPENV may appoint the majority of the board of directors of Philips Pension Trustees. In addition, the Amended Transfer Agreement limits the ability of PPTL LP as the holder of the Transfer Shares to dispose of the Transfer Shares without the consent of KPENV. Due to the governance arrangements among KPENV and the Reporting Persons, and in light of certain provisions of the Amended Transfer Agreement, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have formed a group, within the meaning of Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 13d-5 promulgated thereunder, with KPENV.
Prior to August 5, 2013, by virtue of the Reporting Persons being parties to the Shareholders' Agreement (as defined in Item 6), which contains (i) certain restrictions on the transfer of shares of Common Stock held by the parties thereto, (ii) certain agreements as to the voting of such shares, (iii) drag-along provisions requiring the sale of such shares in certain circumstances and (iv) tag-along provisions permitting the parties thereto to participate in the sale of Common Stock by another party, the Reporting Persons may have been deemed to have formed a group, within the meaning of Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 13d-5 promulgated thereunder, with the other parties to the Shareholders’ Agreement, including the consortium of funds advised by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P., Bain Capital Partners, LLC, Silver Lake Management Company, L.L.C., Apax Partners LLP and AlpInvest Partners N.V. and NXP Co-Investment Partners L.P. (collectively, the “Private Equity Consortium”). Any such deemed membership in such group would have resulted in the attribution to the Reporting Persons of beneficial ownership of the Common Stock held directly or indirectly by the Private Equity Consortium, resulting in a deemed beneficial ownership by the Reporting Persons of more than 5% of Common Stock. On August 5, 2013, the Shareholders' Agreement by its terms terminated with respect to the Reporting Persons and KPENV, and as a result any such deemed membership in such group by the Reporting Persons and KPENV ceased as of such date. The terms of the Shareholders' Agreement (previously incorporated by reference as Exhibit 2 to the First Amendment) are hereby incorporated by reference in this Item 5.
(b) The responses of the Reporting Persons to (i) Rows (7) through (10) of Schedule 13D and (ii) Item 5(a) hereof are incorporated herein by reference. The information required by Item 2 with respect to KPENV is set forth in Schedule II attached hereto.
(c) The Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions in Common Stock during the past 60 days and are not aware of any transactions in Common Stock that were effected during such period by KPENV.
(d) The Reporting Persons have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the 6,768,071 shares of Common Stock held directly by PPTL LP. Pursuant to the Amended Transfer Agreement, PPTL LP and/or Philips Pension Trustees may be required under certain circumstances to make an additional payment to KPENV in respect of such Common Stock, as described in Item 3. The description of the Purchase Price Adjustment set forth in Item 3, the terms of the Amended Transfer Agreement (attached as Exhibit 1) and the terms of the Restated LP Agreement (attached as Exhibit 5) as temporarily amended by the Amendment Letter (attached as Exhibit 17) are incorporated herein by reference.
(e) As a result of the termination of the Shareholders Agreement with respect to the Reporting Persons and KPENV, the Reporting Persons ceased to be a deemed beneficial owner of more than 5% of Common Stock on August 5, 2013.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
Item 6 of the Original 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following statement after the final paragraph thereof:
On August 5, 2013, the Shareholders' Agreement by its terms terminated with respect to the Reporting Persons and KPENV. The terms of the Shareholders' Agreement (previously incorporated by reference as Exhibit 2 to the First Amendment) are hereby incorporated by reference in this Item 6.
