        Associated with Exit or Disposal
  Activities.
  On October 9, 2008, the Micron
  Technology, Inc. (the "Company") announced a plan to restructure its memory
  operations in response to the challenging global environment for technology
  products.  As a part of the restructure plan, the Company and its NAND
  Flash memory joint venture partner, Intel Corporation, have agreed to shutdown
  production of NAND Flash from the Company's 200mm wafer fabrication facility in
  Boise, Idaho.  The Company plans to reduce its global workforce by
  approximately 15 percent during the next two years.
  The Company expects cash costs
  associated with the restructure plan to approximate $60 million, and the
  resulting annual benefit to cash operating margin to approximate $175
  million.  The Company anticipates incurring restructure charges at
  least through the remainder of fiscal 2009, but is unable to estimate the
  aggregate amount of the charges.
  The Company's press release related to
  the restructuring is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Current Report of Form
  8K.
  This
  Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements regarding future
  restructure charges. Actual events or results may differ materially from those
  contained in the forward-looking statements. Please refer to the documents the
  Company files on a consolidated basis from time to time with the Securities and
  Exchange Commission, specifically the Company's most recent Form 10-K and Form
  10-Q. These documents contain and identify important factors that could cause
  the actual results for the Company on a consolidated basis to differ materially
  from those contained in our forward-looking statements (see Certain Factors).
  Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking
  statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of
  activity, performance or achievements. We are under no duty to update any of the
  forward-looking statements after the date of this report to conform to actual
  results.
