ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSET.

         On April 3, 2000 the registrant's wholly owned subsidiary Semiconductor
         Components Industries, LLC ("SCI") acquired all of the outstanding
         shares of capital stock of Cherry Semiconductor Corporation ("Cherry
         Semiconductor") pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated March 8,
         2000 among the registrant, SCI and The Cherry Corporation
         ("Agreement"). The purchase price of approximately $250 million in cash
         was financed with cash on hand and borrowings of $220 million under
         SCI's senior secured bank facilities with a group of institutional
         lenders led by The Chase Manhattan Bank. It is expected that Cherry
         Semiconductor's historical business, the design and manufacture of
         analog and mixed signal integrated circuits for the power management
         and automotive markets, will be continued as part of the registrant's
         worldwide operations.

         The Agreement, our press release dated March 9, 2000 announcing the
         signing of the Agreement, and our press release dated April 4, 2000
         announcing the closing of the acquisition pursuant to the Agreement are
         attached as exhibits to this report and are incorporated herein by
         reference. The foregoing summaries of the acquisition, the Agreement
         and the two press releases do not purport to be complete and are
