Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
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
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant 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.</font></div><br>

Pursuant
      to Rule 416(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
      "Securities Act"), this Registration Statement shall also cover any
      additional shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01, of LSI Corporation
      ("Registrant Common Stock") that become issuable under the LSI Corporation
      2003 Equity Incentive Plan and the LSI Corporation Employee Stock Purchase
      Plan by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or
      other similar transaction effected without receipt of consideration that
      increases the number of outstanding shares of Registrant Common
      Stock.
(2)
Estimated
      solely for purposes of calculating the registration fee in accordance with
      Rule 457(c) and Rule 457(h) under the Securities Act.  For
      shares of Registrant Common Stock to be issued pursuant to stock options,
      stock appreciation rights and restricted stock units and as restricted
      stock, the maximum aggregate offering price was computed based on the
      basis of $6.71 per share, which was the average of the high and low prices
      of the Registrant Common Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange
      on May 23, 2008.  For shares of Registrant Common Stock to be
      issued pursuant to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, the maximum aggregate
      offering price was computed based on $5.70 per share (85% of $6.71, which
      was the average of the high and low prices of the Registrant Common Stock
      as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on May 23,
    2008).
(3)
Each
      share of the Registrant's Common Stock includes a Series A Preferred Share
      Purchase Right.  No separate consideration will be received for
      the rights, which initially will trade together with shares of Registrant
      Common Stock.

of Named Experts and Counsel.
The
validity of the securities registered hereby has been passed upon for the
Registrant by Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, Professional Corporation
("WSGR"), Palo Alto, California. Larry W. Sonsini, a member of WSGR and certain
partnership investment accounts of WSGR in which Mr. Sonsini is a participant

Item
6.                      Indemnification
of Directors and Officers.
Section 145
of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware authorizes a court to
award or a corporation's board of directors to grant indemnification to
directors and officers in terms that are sufficiently broad to permit
indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities (including
reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act of
1933.  Our certificate of incorporation contains a provision
eliminating the personal liability of its directors to the company or its
stockholders for breach of fiduciary duty as a director to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law.  Our bylaws provide for the mandatory
indemnification of our directors and officers to the maximum
extent
2
permitted
by Delaware law. In addition, our bylaws give us the power to indemnify our
employees and agents to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware
law.
We have
entered into agreements to indemnify our directors and executive
officers.  These agreements provide for the circumstances under which
we will indemnify our directors and executive officers and pay their expenses if
they become involved in litigation as a result of their service with the
company.  These agreements also provide a number of circumstances
under which we will not indemnify our directors or executive officers or pay
their expenses pursuant to the agreements.  The benefits provided
under these agreements with our directors and executive officers are in addition
to the benefits provided by our bylaws.

Item
9.                      Undertakings.
(a) The
undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)           To
file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, 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 the 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 the Registration
Statement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in
volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered
would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or
high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the
aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change
in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of
Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement;
(iii) to
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to the
information in the Registration Statement;
provided, however
, that
paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the registration
statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a
post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with
or furnished to the Commission by Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference
in the 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 therein, 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.
(4) That,
for the purpose of determining liability of the Registrant under the Securities
Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the
Registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the Registrant
pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method
used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or
sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the
Registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or
sell such securities to such purchaser: (i) any preliminary prospectus or
prospectus of the Registrant relating to the offering required to be filed
pursuant to Rule 424; (ii) any free writing prospectus relating to the offering
prepared by or on behalf of the Registrant or used or referred to by the
Registrant; (iii) the portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to
the offering containing material information about the Registrant or its
securities provided by or on behalf of the Registrant; and (iv) any other
communication that is an offer in the offering made by the Registrant to the
purchaser.
(b) The
undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant'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
4
annual
report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is
incorporated by reference in the 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.
(c)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
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
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant 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.

Re:

      Statement on Form S-8
Ladies
and Gentlemen:
We have examined the Registration
Statement on Form S-8 filed by you with the Securities and Exchange Commission
on or about the date hereof (the "Registration Statement") in connection with
the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"), of an aggregate of up to 58,368,329 shares (the "Shares") of your common
stock for issuance under the LSI Corporation 2003 Equity Incentive Plan and the
LSI Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan (collectively, the
"Plans").
As your
legal counsel, we have examined the proceedings taken and proposed to be taken
by you in connection with the issuance, sale and payment of consideration for
the Shares to be issued under the Plans.  It is our opinion that, when
issued in the manner referred to in and pursuant to the Plans and pursuant to
the agreements which accompany the Plans, the Shares will be legally and validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
We
consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement
and further consent to the use of our name wherever appearing in the
Registration Statement and any amendments thereto.
Very truly
yours,
