Explanation of Responses:
( 1)  Employee Share Option will vest as follows: 327 options will vest on each of July 18, 2015, July 18, 2016 and July 18, 2017.
( 2)  The Employee Share Option or restricted stock unit, as applicable, was issued in connection with a share exchange program adopted by the board of directors of SunEdison Semiconductor Limited (the "Company"). Pursuant to the share exchange program, each employee of the Company who had received options to purchase common stock or restricted stock units of SunEdison, Inc., the Company's former parent company ("SunEdison), was eligible to receive an exchange grant of options to purchase ordinary shares or restricted share units of the Company, as applicable, which exchange grant generally preserved the value of the original awards.
( 3)  (Continued from Footnote 2) This exchange was effected when SunEdison ceased to own more than 50% of the Company on January 20, 2015, at which time the Company's employees would have otherwise been deemed to have a termination of employment from SunEdison under its various equity incentive plans and all of their outstanding equity awards with respect to SunEdison stock would have been forfeited (in the case of unvested awards) or would have expired within three months (in the case of vested options) without compensation in accordance with the terms of such plans.
( 4)  Each restricted stock unit represents a contingent right to receive one ordinary share of the Company.
( 5)  The restricted stock units will vest as follows: 164 restricted stock units will vest on each of July 18, 2015 and July 18, 2016 and 163 restricted stock units will vest on July 18, 2017.
( 6)  The Employee Share Option will vest as follows: 655 options will vest on April 25, 2015 and 654 options will vest on April 25, 2016.
( 7)  50% of the restricted stock units will vest on each of April 25, 2015 and April 25, 2016.
( 8)  The Employee Share Option will vest in full on April 27, 2015.
( 9)  The Employee Share Option will vest in full on March 19, 2015.
( 10)  The Employee Share Option will vest in full on March 19, 2015.
( 11)  The restricted stock units will vest in full on April 27, 2015.
