Period.” 
  

	3.	MANAGEMENT, COMMUNICATION, INFORMATION AND ESCALATION RIGHTS 

  
 3.1 In General. AMD shall have day-to-day management control over its receipt of the Services. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, this will
include decisions regarding (a) its general administrative services budget, (b) the level of Services it requires, and (c) the performance of its service providers, including its response to failures by Spansion to provide Services in accordance
with the Service Levels and any material breach by Spansion of its obligations under this Agreement. To administer its receipt and use of these Services, AMD will retain an AMD Services Manager as described below and will consult with the Spansion
Services Advisor and Fujitsu Services Advisor in AMD’s reasonable judgment. 
  
 3.2 AMD Services Manager. AMD shall employ an individual reasonably knowledgeable about the provision of general administrative services similar to those provided by Spansion under this Agreement (the
“AMD Services Manager”). The AMD Services Manager shall (a) have overall responsibility for managing and coordinating the performance of AMD’s obligations under this Agreement and for monitoring the performance of
obligations by Spansion under this Agreement, (b) subject to the supervision of AMD management, be authorized to act for and on behalf of AMD with respect to all matters relating to this Agreement, and (c) shall be the primary contact with the
Spansion Services Advisor and Fujitsu Services Advisor.  
  
 3.3 Spansion Services Advisor. Spansion shall appoint at Spansion’s expense an individual (the “Spansion Services Advisor”) who will serve as the Spansion representative under this Agreement. The Spansion
Services Advisor shall (a) have overall responsibility for managing and coordinating the performance of Spansion’s obligations under this Agreement, (b) be authorized to act for and on behalf of Spansion with respect to all matters relating to
this Agreement, and (c) shall be the primary contact with the AMD Services Manager and Fujitsu Services Advisor. 
  
 3.4 Fujitsu Services Advisor. Fujitsu shall appoint at Fujitsu’s expense an individual (the “Fujitsu Services Advisor”) who
will serve as the Fujitsu representative to Spansion regarding the Services. The Fujitsu Services Advisor will serve in an advisory capacity 

  

 2 








 
to Spansion only and will not have independent veto rights or other day-to-day decision-making authority over Spansion’s performance of the Services.
The Fujitsu Services Advisor will act in the best interests of Spansion, not Fujitsu. Spansion shall make available to the Fujitsu Services Advisor office space and facilities upon the Fujitsu Services Advisor’s reasonable request as and when
reasonably required by the Fujitsu Services Advisor to enable the Fujitsu Services Advisor to perform his or her responsibilities hereunder. In the performance of the Fujitsu Services Advisor’s functions, the Fujitsu Services Advisor shall have
the right as reasonably necessary to consult with other Fujitsu employees with appropriate expertise in the respective Service areas and provide information regarding the Services to such employees. For purposes of determining the scope of the
Fujitsu Services Advisor’s rights and responsibilities hereunder, the term “Services” will be deemed to include any services performed by Spansion pursuant to Special Projects. In the event that Fujitsu’s Aggregate Ownership
Interest falls below ten percent (10%) and Fujitsu no longer provides services to Spansion that are similar to the Services, either Spansion or Fujitsu may, but shall not be required to, by written notice to the other and AMD, terminate the role of
the Fujitsu Services Advisor, and, upon such termination, the Fujitsu Services Advisor shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder. 
  
 3.5 Information Exchange and Information Rights. AMD shall keep Spansion informed about those aspects of AMD’s business that could reasonably
be expected to have an effect on the demand for, or provision of, the Services. Spansion will provide to the Fujitsu Services Advisor copies of all reports and other written information relating to the Services that Spansion provides AMD herein at
the same time Spansion provides such reports and information to AMD, including a copy of the quarterly service reports provided AMD under Section 4.7. At any time upon the Fujitsu Services Advisor’s reasonable request, the AMD Services Manager
shall provide the Fujitsu Services Advisor additional information regarding the performance of the Services and the associated Fees to the extent such information is available. Spansion and AMD, through the Spansion Services Advisor and the AMD
Services Manager, will give notice and otherwise keep the Fujitsu Services Advisor informed of all proposals and discussions between the AMD Services Manager and the Spansion Services Advisor relating to material aspects of this Agreement and the
provision of Services herein, including all Changes proposed under the Change Control Procedures, any Special Projects, all audits conducted by AMD and all budget meetings related to the Services. Such notice shall be given by the Parties promptly
upon initiation of such discussions. In addition, Spansion and AMD will, upon the Fujitsu Services Advisor’s request and subject to applicable confidentiality restrictions, grant access to the Fujitsu Services Advisor to any meeting between the
Spansion Services Advisor and the AMD Services Manager, whether telephonic or in person, regarding performance of the Services, the Fees and any proposed Special Projects or Changes. 
  
 3.6 Services Advisor Escalation Rights. If at any time, the Fujitsu Services Advisor believes in good faith that (a)
AMD is in material breach under this Agreement or (b) an audit pursuant to Section 8.11 should be conducted, then the Fujitsu Services Advisor will notify the Spansion Services Advisor in writing. If after a reasonable period of time, the Fujitsu
Services Advisor does not believe that the concern raised has been adequately addressed, the Fujitsu Services Advisor shall be entitled to notify Spansion’s Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors”) of the Fujitsu Services
Advisor’s concerns. Any such notice shall be in writing and 

  

 3 








 
shall be provided to all Board members simultaneously, with a copy also provided simultaneously to the AMD Services Manager and the Spansion Services
Advisor. The Board of Directors shall consider the Fujitsu Service Advisor’s concerns in good faith and may take any action it deems reasonable in the circumstances. 
  
 3.7 Contract Amendments.  
  

(a) AMD and Spansion may only amend this Agreement upon the approval of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may delegate its
decision-making authority to Spansion management as it deems appropriate; provided, however, that any Special Project or new Services purchase of greater than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) payable in any Spansion fiscal year will require
specific approval from the Board of Directors. 
  
 (b) For so long as Fujitsu maintains at least a ten percent (10%) Aggregate Ownership Interest, Spansion and AMD may not amend this Agreement without the prior written consent of Fujitsu (which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned,
delayed or withheld), to the extent an amendment (i) reduces the rights of the Fujitsu Services Advisor set forth herein, (ii) reduces Fujitsu’s right to consent to amendments set forth in this Section, (iii) establishes a basis for charging
AMD for the Services other than by calculating Spansion’s reasonable, good faith estimates of actual costs plus five percent (5%), as set forth in Section 8.6, or materially alters the cost allocation methodologies described in Section 8.6 or
(iv) materially reduces Spansion’s rights under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, changes to Fees or Services resulting from Change Control Procedures, the Annual Budget Process or the Fee reconciliation process described in
Section 8.6 shall not be deemed to constitute amendments to this Agreement. 
  
 3.8 Approvals. AMD shall reasonably cooperate with Spansion by making available, as requested by Spansion, management decisions, information, approvals or disapprovals, and acceptances or rejections in a
reasonably timely manner so that Spansion may fulfill its obligations under this Agreement. 
  
 3.9 Change Control Procedures. The Parties shall use the following procedures (the “Change Control Procedures”) to implement Changes. 
  
 (a) General. 
  
 (i) Changes. Changes shall be implemented only by mutual agreement of the Parties
through these Change Control Procedures, except as may be necessary on an emergency, temporary basis to maintain the continuity of the Services. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the implementation of a Change does not necessarily require an
increase in the Fees or other fees payable by AMD or a reduction in the scope of Services or in Service Levels provided hereunder, and that any change in the Fees or other amounts payable by AMD as a result of a Change will be an adjustment in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8. All decisions regarding Changes are subject to the approval by the Board of Directors, which may delegate its decision-making authority to Spansion management as it deems appropriate. The Parties
acknowledge and agree that not all modifications to the Services may constitute Changes; as part 

  

 4 








 
of the routine operation of AMD and Spansion, modifications that are not material or significant, as determined by Spansion in its reasonable judgment, may
be conducted without recourse to the Change Control Procedures; provided that the AMD Services Manager is notified — on a regular basis consistent with Spansion’s internal processes — of the modifications being implemented on
AMD’s behalf, with a copy of such report provided to the Fujitsu Services Advisor. 
  
 (ii) Schedule. Unless otherwise agreed by AMD, with respect to all Changes, Spansion shall (a) schedule Changes so as not to unreasonably interrupt AMD’s business operations, other than those Changes made on a emergency basis to
maintain the continuity of the Services, (b) prepare and deliver to AMD each quarter a rolling schedule for ongoing and planned agreed upon Changes for the next quarter, and (c) monitor the status of Changes against the applicable schedule.

  
 (iii) Meetings. The Spansion Services Advisor and the AMD Services
Manager shall meet on a mutually agreed schedule (no less frequently than each quarter) for the purpose of reviewing Change requests submitted by either Party in accordance with these Change Control Procedures. The AMD Services Manager will provide
the Fujitsu Services Advisor written or telephonic notice of these meetings and the Fujitsu Services Advisor may attend. 
  
 (b) Requests for Changes. Requests for Changes shall be submitted for review in accordance with the Change Control Procedures, and
shall include a reasonably detailed description of the requested Change together with the basis for such Change. All requests for Changes by AMD shall be communicated to Spansion through the AMD Services Manager or his or her authorized designee.

  
 (i) Changes Initiated by AMD. Within ten (10) business days after
Spansion receives a request from AMD for a Change, either Spansion or a joint project team working on the Service to be impacted, as appropriate, shall prepare and provide to AMD an initial written proposal for the Change (a “Change
Proposal”), which proposal will include Spansion’s initial proposals regarding (A) the Services and the applicable schedule for performing the Services, including but not limited to AMD’s related obligations, to effect the Change,
(B) the resources required to perform Services effecting the Change and resulting from the Change, (C) the Fees for Services, and (D) any additional areas that are reasonably likely to be impacted by the proposed Change. The Change Proposal shall
also contain a description of any other anticipated costs that AMD will incur as a result of the Change that it would otherwise not have incurred. Within ten (10) business days after receiving such Change Proposal, AMD shall either approve the
Change Proposal, notify Spansion that AMD desires to discuss the Change Proposal further, or withdraw the request for such Change. AMD’s failure to approve the Change Proposal or notify Spansion that AMD desires to discuss the Change Proposal
further within this ten (10) business day period shall be deemed a rejection of the Change Proposal, and the Change shall not be implemented. 
  
 (ii) Changes Initiated by Spansion. Concurrent with the submission of a request for a Change by Spansion, either Spansion or a joint project team working on the
impacted Service, as appropriate, shall provide to AMD a Change Proposal containing the information specified in subparagraph (i) above. Within ten (10) business days after receiving such proposal, AMD shall either approve the Change Proposal,
notify Spansion that AMD desires to discuss the Change 

  

 5 








 
Proposal further, or reject the requested Change. AMD’s failure to approve the Change Proposal or notify Spansion that AMD desires to discuss the Change
Proposal further within this ten (10) business day period shall be deemed a rejection of such request, and the Change shall not be implemented. 
  
 (c) Further Discussion of Changes. If within ten (10) business days after receipt of a Change Proposal, AMD notifies Spansion that
AMD desires to discuss the proposed Change further, the AMD Services Manager and Spansion Services Advisor will promptly consider the Change Proposal in person or by telephone and will attempt in good faith to develop a mutually acceptable Change
Proposal. The AMD Services Manager will notify the Fujitsu Services Advisor of the proposed meeting and the Fujitsu Services Advisor may attend any such meeting. 
  
 (d) Implementation of Changes. All Changes are subject to the written approval of the Parties. Only
following receipt of each Party’s written approval may Spansion begin to implement the approved Change, and any Change so approved by each Party that affects any Statement of Work shall be deemed to be an amendment to such Statement of Work.

  
 (e) Emergency Changes. If a Service
Level failure, reasonable safety concern, Governmental Authority or change in Law, requires an immediate Change to a Service, then Spansion may implement such Change immediately upon notice to AMD, with a copy to the Fujitsu Services Advisor. Any
change in Fees or equipment or technology purchases for which Spansion seeks reimbursement from AMD, or any long-term, material degradation in Service Levels resulting from such Change, unless such degradation is unavoidably required in the
circumstances (in which event Spansion shall use all reasonable efforts to mitigate the impact of such degradation), shall be subject to the Change Control Procedures. 
  
 3.10 Special Projects. AMD may from time to time during the Term request that Spansion perform Special Projects. Upon
receipt of such a request from AMD, Spansion shall provide AMD with a written proposal for such Special Project which shall include: 
  
 (a) a description of the services, functions and responsibilities Spansion anticipates performing in connection with such Special Project;

  
 (b) a description of the obligations of AMD,
if any, required for Spansion to perform such Special Project; 
  
 (c) a schedule for commencing and completing such Special Project; 
  
 (d) Spansion’s prospective fees for such Special Project, either on a fixed fee or time and materials basis; and 
  
 (e) when appropriate, a description of any new Software or
equipment required in connection with such Special Project. 
  

 6 








 Spansion shall not begin performing any Special Project until the Parties have agreed in writing upon the
specifications, requirements, schedule and fees for such Special Project pursuant to the Change Control Procedures. AMD shall have the right to contract with a third party to perform any Special Project, provided that the Special Project does not
affect the provision of Services and would not result in the breach of an obligation that Spansion may have with a third party. AMD will notify Spansion of any proposal that AMD wants to make to a third party to perform a Special Project instead of
having Spansion perform that Special Project. If the Parties do not agree upon terms by which Spansion will perform a Special Project, or if Spansion objects to AMD retaining a third party to perform the Special Project because Spansion reasonably
believes in good faith that such Special Project, or the third party’s performance of that Special Project, will negatively affect the Services, either by reducing performance or functionality, or increasing the cost to Spansion, or by causing
Spansion to breach an obligation to a third party, each Party shall have the right to escalate the issue to the Board of Directors, and the Parties shall in good faith negotiate a mutually-acceptable resolution to the matter. If AMD does retain a
third party to perform a Special Project hereunder, then Spansion and AMD will agree in writing upon any changes to the Services, Service Levels (if applicable), Fees that result from AMD retaining the third party and commissioning the Special
Project. 
  

	4.	SERVICES 

  
 4.1 Services; Parity. Pursuant to separate statements of work attached hereto and made a part hereof (“Statements of Work”),
Spansion, either itself or through its Affiliates or subcontractors (subject to Section 4.5), shall perform the services, functions, and responsibilities for AMD identified in the separate Statements of Work (the “Services”). The
Statements of Work may be updated by the Parties from time to time upon mutual agreement pursuant to the Change Control Procedures or the annual review of the AMD general administrative services budget and the Services described in Section 8.7 (the
“Annual Budget Process”). Spansion will provide AMD the Services under terms (including those related to charges, cost allocation and service levels) that are at least as favorable as those it provides any other Spansion business
unit, division or Spansion Affiliate receiving similar services from Spansion (or an Spansion subcontractor), subject to any deviations agreed to by the Parties to address AMD’s specific requirements as communicated to Spansion and taking into
account that this Agreement provides for a cost plus allocation budgeting structure that may not apply to other Spansion business units, divisions or Affiliates. The Services (including any new Services added pursuant to mutual agreement by the
Parties) will evolve and be supplemented, modified, enhanced or replaced, reduced or eliminated over time as agreed upon by the Parties pursuant to the Change Control Procedures or as part of the Annual Budget Process. Fees are subject to the
quarterly budget reconciliation process described in Section 8.8. 
  
 4.2 Governmental Approvals. Spansion shall obtain and maintain all Governmental Approvals required for Spansion to deliver the Services under this Agreement. AMD shall obtain and maintain all Governmental Approvals required for AMD
to use the Services under this Agreement. Upon request by either Party, the other Party shall provide to the requesting Party reasonable cooperation and assistance in obtaining Governmental Approvals hereunder. 
  
 4.3 Changes in Law. If either Party becomes aware of any changes in
Law that relate to Spansion’s delivery of the Services or AMD’s use of the Services, then such Party will 

  

 7 








 
notify the other Party of such changes in Law. With respect to any changes related to Spansion’s delivery of Services, Spansion and AMD shall work
together pursuant to the Change Control Procedures to identify the impact of such changes on Spansion’s delivery of the Services, and any changes in the fees charged to AMD, as a result and shall work together to implement any necessary
modifications to the Services prior to the deadline imposed by the Governmental Authority having jurisdiction for such requirement or change. Spansion will use reasonable efforts to minimize the incremental cost to AMD of compliance with such Laws.

  
 4.4 Compliance With Laws. Spansion shall comply with
all Laws governing the provision of the Services and the performance of its obligations, including identifying and procuring permits, certificates, approvals and inspections required under such Laws. If a charge of non-compliance by Spansion with
any such Laws occurs, Spansion shall promptly notify AMD of such charge in writing and Spansion shall promptly remedy such non-compliance in accordance with Law. 
  
 4.5 Subcontractors. AMD acknowledges that Spansion may outsource to a third party or third parties the performance of
some or all of the Services that Spansion is obligated to provide under this Agreement; provided however, that in the event such outsourcing will lead to any Change in Service Levels or Fees, such outsourcing shall be subject to the Change Control
Procedures. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as requiring Spansion to perform directly any Services outside of the United States and to the extent that Services will be performed outside the United States, Spansion may engage an
Affiliate, subsidiary or subcontractor to perform such Services (subject to the Change Control Procedures in accordance with the foregoing). No subcontracting shall release Spansion from its responsibility for its obligations under this Agreement.
Spansion shall be responsible for the work and activities of each of the Spansion Agents, including compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Spansion shall be responsible for all payments to its subcontractors unless the Parties agree that AMD
will pay directly to a Spansion Affiliate providing Services to AMD. 
  
 4.6 AMD Agents. Spansion will coordinate and cooperate in good faith with AMD Agents hired by AMD from time to time to the extent reasonably required by AMD and with Fujitsu to the extent that Fujitsu supplies
similar or complementary services to AMD. Spansion will promptly notify AMD if a Fujitsu or any AMD Agent act or omission will cause, or has caused, a problem or delay in providing the Services. Spansion will be excused from failure to meet a
Service Level or otherwise perform its obligations under this Agreement only to the extent that a failure to meet such Service Level or otherwise perform its obligations was caused by the interference of a AMD Agent or Fujitsu; provided such
interference was not at the direction of Spansion and provided that Spansion continues to use reasonable efforts to perform despite such interference and works with AMD to resolve the problem and resume conformance with the Service Levels and
performance of Spansion’s obligations under this Agreement as soon as practicable. 
  
 4.7 Spansion Reporting. On a semi-annual basis, Spansion shall provide a report to AMD, with a copy to the Fujitsu Services Advisor, (a) identifying those at Spansion principally responsible for providing
Services in each Service area, (b) identifying any significant problems or issues encountered in delivering the Services for each of the Service areas, and (c) identifying 

  

 8 








 
any major changes in the amount of Services or Fees in the Service areas that are expected or planned by Spansion for the upcoming two (2) quarters or year.
The Spansion Services Advisor will provide the AMD Services Manager with such other reports regarding the performance of the Services and the Fees as the AMD Services Manager shall reasonably require. 
  
 4.8 AMD Benchmarking. AMD may independently analyze Spansion’s
compliance with the Service Levels and provide Spansion feedback regarding Spansion’s performance. In addition, if as part of that benchmarking, AMD in good faith determines that the pricing it is charged for the Services is not within a
reasonable range, AMD may notify Spansion and the Parties will consider whether changes are appropriate to the Services to enable the Parties to enjoy better pricing. Any such benchmarking shall be subject to the confidentiality restriction set
forth in Section 11. 
  
 4.9 Use of Services. AMD may not
remarket or sell all or any portion of the Services provided under this Agreement, or make all or any portion of the Services available to any party other than AMD or AMD’s Affiliates, without Spansion’s consent. 
  

	5.	SERVICE LEVELS 

  
 5.1 Service Levels. Spansion shall perform the Services at a minimum in conformance with the level of service and with at least the same degree of
accuracy, quality, completeness, timeliness, responsiveness and efficiency as Spansion provides similar services to its other divisions or Affiliates (“Service Levels”). 
  
 5.2 Dispute Escalation Process. 
  
 (a) Initial Notice; Good Faith Discussion. If the AMD
Services Manager determines that Spansion has failed to perform the Services in accordance with the applicable Service Levels, the AMD Services Manager may initiate contact with the Spansion Services Advisor to discuss the deficiency, and if
necessary may submit a Change Proposal regarding a corrective action plan in accordance with the Change Control Procedures. Upon such contact, the AMD Services Manager and Spansion Services Advisor will promptly consider the corrective action plan
in person or by telephone and will attempt in good faith to agree to a mutually acceptable corrective action plan. The AMD Services Manager will invite the Fujitsu Services Advisor to attend any such meetings. If the Parties cannot agree upon a
corrective action plan within a fifteen (15) day business day period, the issue will be escalated in accordance with clause (b) below. 
  
 (b) Management Escalation. If the issue is not resolved in accordance with clause (a) above, the AMD Services Manager will notify
the Spansion chief financial officer of the issue. If the Spansion chief financial officer reasonably determines that the issue warrants further escalation, the Spansion chief financial officer will then contact the person within Spansion in charge
of the provision of the Services at issue to discuss the issue in person or by telephone and the Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve the issue for a period of twenty-five (25) business days. If the issue is not resolved, as agreed by the
Parties, within such twenty-five (25) business day period, the issue will be escalated in accordance with the dispute resolution proceedings in accordance with Section 13. 
  

 9 









	6.	SERVICE LOCATIONS AND SECURITY 

  
 6.1 Service Locations. 
  
 (a) The Services shall be provided to AMD from the AMD Service Locations and the Spansion Service Locations established on the Effective
Date or subsequently changed in accordance with the terms hereof. In the event Spansion desires to establish or move Services to a AMD Service Location, such action shall either be approved through the Change Control Procedures or be approved in
writing by the AMD Services Manager. 
  
 (b)
Except as provided in Section 8 and unless otherwise agreed by AMD, any incremental expenses incurred by AMD or Spansion and any costs incurred in connection with the performance or use of the Services, in each case as a result of Spansion’s
relocation to, or use of, any different Service Locations at Spansion’s request, shall be paid by Spansion or reimbursed to AMD by Spansion. Any incremental expenses incurred by AMD or Spansion as a result of a relocation to, or use of, any
different Service Locations at AMD’s request or direction shall be paid by AMD or reimbursed to Spansion by AMD. 
  
 6.2 AMD Resources and Facilities. 
  
 (a) For so long as Spansion requires the same for the performance of the Services, subject to AMD’s agreement (not to be unreasonably
withheld), AMD shall provide to Spansion at no charge access to and the use of the space in the AMD Service Locations, together with personal computers, workstations, terminals, printers, and other equipment utilized by AMD, office furnishings,
telephone equipment, janitorial services, utilities and other reasonable resources in connection with Spansion’s performance of the Services. Use of AMD Service Locations by Spansion does not constitute a leasehold interest in favor of
Spansion, and Spansion shall not have exclusive access or control of the space provided to Spansion under this Agreement. 
  
 (b) Spansion and Spansion Agents shall not commit or permit waste or damage to such facilities, nor use such facilities for any unlawful
purpose or act, and shall comply with all of AMD’s general and site-specific policies and procedures generally applicable to the applicable AMD Service Location (as in effect from time to time and of which AMD has provided notice to Spansion),
including procedures for the physical security of the AMD Service Locations. 
  
 (c) Spansion shall permit AMD and AMD Agents to enter into those portions of the AMD Service Locations occupied by Spansion’s staff at any time to perform facilities-related services. AMD shall ensure that AMD
and AMD Agents shall not interfere with Spansion’s performance of Services while exercising access rights under this Agreement, and Spansion shall not be liable under this Agreement for its non-performance or its failure to meet the applicable
Service Levels to the extent such non-performance or failure is caused by interference by AMD or AMD Agents. 
  

 10 








 6.3 Conduct of Spansion Personnel. While at the AMD Service Locations, Spansion and Spansion
Agents shall (a) comply with the requests, standard rules and regulations of AMD regarding safety and health, personal and professional conduct (including adhering to general safety practices or procedures) generally applicable to such AMD Service
Locations, as notified to Spansion from time to time and (b) otherwise conduct themselves in a businesslike manner. If AMD notifies Spansion that a particular member of the Spansion Personnel is not conducting himself or herself in accordance with
this Section, Spansion shall promptly (y) investigate the matter and take appropriate action which may include (i) removing the applicable personnel from the Spansion Personnel and providing AMD with prompt notice of such removal and (ii) replacing
the applicable personnel with a similarly qualified individual, or (z) take other appropriate disciplinary action to prevent a recurrence. In the event of multiple violations of this Section 6.3 by a particular member of the Spansion Personnel,
Spansion shall promptly remove the individual from the Spansion Personnel. 
  
 6.4 Safety and Security Procedures. 
  
 (a) Spansion agrees to comply with AMD’s physical safety and security procedures for all Services it provides at AMD Service Locations. 
  
 (b) Spansion will promptly notify AMD if any AMD failure to maintain and enforce (except for enforcement
with respect to Spansion Personnel) physical safety and security procedures at AMD Service Locations will cause, or has caused, a material problem or delay for Spansion in providing the Services. Spansion will be excused from failure to meet a
Service Level or otherwise perform its obligations under this Agreement only to the extent that a failure to meet such Service Level or otherwise perform its obligations was caused by the AMD failure to maintain and enforce (except for enforcement
with respect to Spansion Personnel) physical safety and security procedures at AMD Service Locations; provided that Spansion continues to use reasonable efforts to perform despite such failure and works with AMD to resolve the failure and resume
conformance with the Service Levels and performance of Spansion’s obligations under this Agreement as soon as practicable. 
  

	7.	CONTINUED PROVISION OF SERVICES 

  
 7.1 Force Majeure. If and to the extent that a Party’s performance of any of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement is prevented, hindered
or delayed by fire, flood, earthquake, elements of nature or acts of God, acts of war, terrorism, riots, civil disorders, rebellions or revolutions, or any other similar cause beyond the reasonable control of such Party (but specifically excluding
labor and union-related activities) (each, a “Force Majeure Event”), and such non-performance, hindrance or delay could not have been prevented by reasonable precautions, then the non-performing, hindered or delayed Party shall be
excused for such non-performance, hindrance or delay, as applicable, of those obligations affected by the Force Majeure Event for as long as such Force Majeure Event continues and such Party continues to use reasonable efforts to recommence
performance whenever and to whatever extent possible without delay, including through the use of alternate sources, workaround plans or other means. The Party whose performance is prevented, hindered or delayed by a Force Majeure Event shall
immediately notify the other Party of the occurrence of the Force Majeure Event and describe in 

  

 11 








 
reasonable detail the nature of the Force Majeure Event. If a Service cannot be resumed as a result of a Force Majeure Event for a period of time sufficient
to materially hinder AMD’s ability to continue to operate, but in no event less than thirty (30) days, AMD may obtain such needed Services from a third party; provided however, that if Spansion is thereafter able to resume providing such
Service, AMD will again retain Spansion to provide such Service in accordance with this Agreement. 
  

	8.	PAYMENTS AND INVOICING 

  
 8.1 Fees. In consideration of Spansion providing the Services, AMD shall pay to Spansion the fees set forth in the Statements of Work, as such fees
may be adjusted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (the “Fees”). The Fees include Spansion’s reasonable, good faith estimates of pass through expenses for third party Software costs and other third party services (such
portion of the Fees referred to herein as the “Pass-Through Expenses”). Pass-Through Expenses shall be billed at direct cost, without any mark-up. The Fees are subject to change annually in accordance with the Annual Budget Process,
as well as in accordance with the Change Control Procedures and the quarterly budget reconciliation process described in Section 8.8. In the event through the Change Control Procedures or otherwise in accordance with this Agreement additional
Pass-Through Expenses will be incurred, Spansion will separately identify such additional Pass-Through Expenses in the applicable Statement of Work. 
  
 8.2 Special Project Fees. Subject to the Change Control Procedures, AMD shall pay Spansion any Special Project Fees agreed upon by the Parties in
writing. As of the Amendment Date, there are no approved Special Projects Fees. 
  
 8.3 Invoicing. After the beginning of each fiscal month of the Term, Spansion shall invoice AMD for (i) all Fees payable for Services performed during the previous fiscal month and all Pass-Through Expenses
paid during the previous fiscal month, and (ii) all Special Project Fees, if any, payable for services performed during the previous fiscal month, including in the case of clause (ii) any Reimbursable Expenses incurred by Spansion in performing a
Special Project and reimbursable pursuant to Section 8.9. 
  
 8.4
Time of Payment. Spansion’s invoices shall be due and payable within forty-five (45) days after the end of the fiscal month in which the Services or, if applicable, agreed upon Special Project services, were provided or the costs
incurred. Any other sum due Spansion pursuant to this Agreement shall be due and payable within forty-five (45) days after receipt by AMD of an invoice from Spansion. All payments will be made via wire transfer or other mutually-acceptable means.

  
 8.5 Fee Dispute. Within thirty (30) days after
AMD’s receipt of each invoice, AMD shall give notice to Spansion of any amount shown in such invoice that AMD disputes in good faith, which notice shall include a reasonably detailed explanation of the disputed amount and the grounds for the
dispute. 
  
 8.6 Cost Allocation. Spansion will calculate
Fees and costs charged to AMD using a cost allocation methodology that accurately and fairly reflects Spansion’s reasonable, good faith 

  

 12 








 
forecasts of its actual costs associated with providing the Services and with a reasonable allocation to AMD based on the provision of Services to AMD and
the costs therefor as a proportion of total services and costs Spansion provides for itself, for AMD and for any other division or Affiliate of Spansion. Spansion agrees that the target of the Fees and costs charged to AMD will be Spansion’s
actual costs in performing the Services. Spansion shall set the Fees each year as part of the Annual Budget Process at such reasonable, good faith projection of actual costs (and any overhead costs allocated according to the principle set forth in
the first sentence of this Section) plus five percent (5%) of Spansion’s costs, excluding Pass-Through Expenses. AMD acknowledges, however, that due to events that occur in between the quarterly reconciliations described in Section 8.8, the
Fees may not accurately reflect Spansion’s actual costs. In such event and to such extent, Spansion will not be deemed in breach of its obligation to charge Fees based on its reasonable, good faith estimates of actual costs, provided Spansion
uses diligent and good faith efforts to establish its actual costs as the basis for reconciling Fees under Section 8.8 and developing future budgets pursuant to the Annual Budget Process. The Fees will be analyzed and updated pursuant to Section 8.8
and the Annual Budget Process. 
  
 8.7 Annual Budget
Process. Each year, in accordance with Spansion’s normal budget process, AMD and Spansion will meet and address changes to the Services and the applicable Fees for the succeeding fiscal year and the Parties will agree in writing upon the
Services, Service Levels (as applicable) and Fees for the succeeding year. 
  
 8.8 Price Protection; Quarterly Budget Reconciliation. In addition to adjustments that may be discussed pursuant to the Annual Budget Process, the Fees shall be adjusted on a prospective basis by mutual written
agreement on a quarterly basis (excluding the quarter when the Annual Budget Process will take the place of the quarterly reconciliation process) if a major event has occurred during the quarter that will substantially increase or decrease the
actual costs of the Services in the future versus the then-current mutually-agreed budget (e.g., Spansion realizes substantial cost savings as the result of an outsourcing transaction). As part of this quarterly reconciliation process, adjustments
to budgeted Fees (including Pass-Through Expenses), whether resulting in an increase or decrease in Fees (including Pass-Through Expenses), will be mutually agreed upon by Spansion and AMD and will apply prospectively only. 
  
 8.9 Expenses. AMD shall pay or reimburse Spansion for its Reimbursable
Expenses incurred in connection with its performance of Special Projects as may be agreed on a project by project basis. Except as provided in the previous sentence or as otherwise agreed through the Change Control Procedures, Spansion shall not
charge AMD for any expenses or costs incurred by Spansion in providing Special Project services. 
  
 8.10 Proration. All periodic Fees under this Agreement are to be computed on a fiscal month basis and shall be prorated on a per diem basis for any
partial fiscal month. 
  
 8.11 Audits. In the event AMD in
good faith believes that there is a material difference between actual costs incurred by Spansion and the Fees, AMD shall be entitled to appoint an auditor reasonably acceptable to Spansion to audit the cost allocation methodologies used by Spansion
to calculate the Fees, the allocation of Fees and Pass-Through Expenses, and to 

  

 13 








 
otherwise verify the accuracy of the Fees and expenses that Spansion charges AMD for provision of Services under this Agreement. AMD may conduct one such
audit annually upon reasonable advance written notice to Spansion delivered through the Spansion Services Advisor. Spansion agrees to provide such auditor with access to all data, records, reports, resources, facilities and personnel necessary to
enable the auditor to conduct appropriate audits of the Fees charged to AMD. The auditor shall promptly report any discrepancies in writing to AMD, with a copy to the Spansion Services Advisor and the Fujitsu Services Advisor. Any copies provided
the Fujitsu Services Advisor shall only include the results of the auditor’s analysis and shall be deemed Confidential Information of AMD. Any discrepancy discovered shall be promptly rectified as part of the next quarter’s budget
reconciliation process, whether such discrepancy resulted in an overpayment or underpayment of Fees. All such audits shall be at AMD’s expense. Spansion agrees to retain all pertinent records to justify its allocation of Fees and costs to AMD
for a period of two (2) years after provision of the applicable Service. In addition, in the event Spansion conducts an audit (either by itself or through an independent auditor) of a third party providing any Services (or any part thereof),
Spansion shall make all such audit results available to AMD promptly upon Spansion’s receipt thereof (and shall pass on to AMD any adjustment pursuant to the budget reconciliation process). 
  

	9.	TAXES 

  
 9.1 General. Except as specifically set forth in this Section 9, the Fees paid to Spansion are exclusive of any applicable sales, use, gross
receipts, excise, value-added, personal property, services or other Taxes (other than withholding taxes) (“Transaction Taxes”) attributable to periods on or after the Effective Date. In the event that AMD is prohibited by law from
making any payment of Fees unless withholding taxes are deducted or withheld therefrom, then AMD shall deduct such amounts as are necessary and pay the net amount to Spansion after such deduction or withholding. AMD shall promptly furnish Spansion
with a copy of an official tax receipt or other appropriate evidence of any withholding taxes imposed on payments made under this Agreement. As part of this Agreement, AMD shall issue Spansion such valid tax exemption certificate(s) for the various
state and local taxing authorities as AMD may legally issue and Spansion may legally and reasonably request to cover Transaction Taxes legally imposed upon the transactions arising out of this Agreement. In the event that a Transaction Tax is
assessed against Spansion on the provision of the Services by Spansion to AMD or on the Fees, however levied or assessed, AMD shall reimburse Spansion for or provide acceptable proof that AMD has paid said amounts directly to the appropriate taxing
authority. AMD shall accrue and pay the appropriate amount of Taxes due to any state or local taxing authority for Transaction Taxes . AMD will be responsible for the proper reporting of Transaction Taxes to the taxing authorities, and any charges
associated with such filings, including but not limited to, interest or penalties due to the taxing authorities. Spansion and AMD agree to mutually cooperate in a reasonable manner for the purpose of minimizing all Transaction Taxes that are to be
paid directly or indirectly by AMD. Spansion grants AMD the right to pursue a separate action against any governmental unit which asserts Transaction Taxes and Spansion agrees to cooperate in a reasonable manner with AMD if such action is taken.

  

 14 








 9.2 Confidentiality; Disclosure to Taxing Authorities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Agreement or in any other written or oral understanding or agreement to which the Parties hereto are parties or by which they are bound, each Party shall be permitted to disclose the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions
contemplated hereby (and any related transactions or arrangements). This permission to disclose includes the ability of each Party to consult, without limitation of any kind, any tax advisor regarding the tax treatment or tax structure of the
transactions contemplated hereby (and any related transactions or arrangements). This provision is intended to comply with Section 1.6011-4(b)(3)(ii)(B) of the Treasury Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. Each Party
acknowledges that this written authorization does not constitute a waiver by any Party of any privilege held by such Party pursuant to the attorney-client privilege or the confidentiality privilege of Code Section 7525(a). 
  
 9.3 Other Taxes. AMD and Spansion shall each bear sole responsibility
for franchise and privilege taxes on its business, taxes based on its net income, and employment taxes with respect to its employees. 
  
 9.4 New Equipment. AMD shall bear sole responsibility for all sales, use, gross receipts, excise, value-added or personal property taxes
attributable to new equipment and any third party maintenance thereon procured by Spansion on behalf of AMD, with the consent of AMD pursuant to the Change Control Procedures in connection with Spansion’s performance of Services under this
Agreement (provided AMD obtains unencumbered title to such equipment). 
  
 9.5 Cooperation. AMD and Spansion shall cooperate to segregate the Fees into the following separate payment categories: (a) those for taxable Services; and (b) those for nontaxable Services. 
  
 9.6 Invoices. For any Taxes that Spansion is entitled to collect from
AMD hereunder for remittance to the applicable Governmental Authority, Spansion shall separately state the amount of such Taxes on its invoice. If Spansion fails to timely comply with the foregoing obligation, Spansion shall be responsible for any
resulting noncompliance with Law. 
  

	10.	PROPRIETARY RIGHTS. 

  
 10.1 In General. In connection with this Agreement, all intellectual property developed by Spansion in performing the Services, other than
intellectual property based on underlying AMD owned intellectual property, will be owned by Spansion. 
  
 10.2 Other Software. The license of Other Software will be agreed upon by the Parties pursuant to the Change Control Procedures, as a Special
Project, or as part of the Annual Budget Process. At such time, the Parties will agree whether the Other Software will be licensed by Spansion and sublicensed to AMD, or whether AMD will obtain the license to the Other Software directly with
sufficient rights for Spansion to use the Other Software on AMD’s behalf. If licensed by Spansion, AMD will bear any associated license and maintenance fees as either a Pass-Through Expense or as part of the Spansion internal Fees, except to
the extent already included as an Spansion internal Fee or Pass-Through Expense, in which case Spansion shall 

  

 15 








 
itself bear such expense and not charge AMD therefor. In the event AMD must pay license fees for Other Software directly, and such fees are included in the
Spansion internal Fees or Pass-Through Expenses, Spansion shall reimburse AMD for such amount, due within ninety (90) days of AMD’s notification to Spansion thereof. The foregoing shall not apply to Software licensed to AMD under a Statement of
Work attached hereto as of the Amendment Date. 
  

	11.	CONFIDENTIALITY

is designated as confidential or proprietary at the time of disclosure and reduced in writing or other tangible (including electronic) form that includes a prominent confidentiality notice and delivered to the Receiving Party within thirty (30) days
of disclosure, or (b) provided under circumstances reasonably indicating that it constitutes confidential and proprietary information, constitutes the confidential and proprietary information of the Disclosing Party (“Confidential
Information”). The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information only to those employees who have a need to know such Confidential Information and who are bound to retain the confidentiality thereof under provisions (including
provisions relating to nonuse and nondisclosure) no less restrictive than those required by the Receiving Party for its own confidential information. The Receiving Party shall, and shall cause its employees to, retain in confidence and not disclose
to any third party (including any of its sub-contractors) any Confidential Information without the Disclosing Party’s express prior written consent, and the Receiving Party shall not use such Confidential Information except to exercise the
rights and perform its obligations under this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Receiving Party shall use at least the same procedures and degree of care which it uses to protect its own confidential information of like importance, and
in no event less than reasonable care. The Receiving Party shall be fully responsible for compliance by its employees with the foregoing, and any act or omission of an employee of the Receiving Party shall constitute an act or omission of the
Receiving Party. The confidentiality obligations set forth in this Section 11.1 shall apply and continue, with regard to all Confidential Information disclosed hereunder, during the Term and for a period of ten (10) years from the date of
termination of this Agreement. 
  
 11.2 Exceptions.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information will not include information that: (a) was already known by the Receiving Party, other than under an obligation of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party or any third party, at the time of
disclosure hereunder, as evidenced by the Receiving Party’s tangible (including written or electronic) records in existence at such time; (b) was generally available to the public or otherwise part of the public domain at the time of its
disclosure to the Receiving Party hereunder; (c) became generally available to the public or otherwise part of the public domain after its disclosure other than through any act or omission of the Receiving Party in breach of this Agreement; (d) was
subsequently lawfully disclosed to the Receiving Party by an Entity or person other than the Disclosing Party not subject to any duty of confidentiality with respect thereto; or (e) was developed by the Receiving Party without reference to any
Confidential Information disclosed by the Disclosing Party, as evidenced by the Receiving Party’s tangible (including written or electronic) records in existence at such time.

(b) to its accountants, banks, financing sources, lawyers and other professional advisors, provided that such parties undertake in writing (or are otherwise bound by rules of professional conduct) to keep such information strictly confidential, (c)
in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement, or (d) pursuant to agreed joint press releases prepared in good faith. The Parties will consult with each other, in advance, with regard to the terms of all proposed press releases, public

then subject AMD’s compliance with Section 5.2, AMD may terminate Spansion’s provision of all or part of such Service after sixty (60) days have elapsed since initial notification of the failure and either perform such Service itself or
obtain the services of a third party. The Fees will be adjusted accordingly. 
  

 17 








 14.3 Termination for Cause. 
  
 (a) If Spansion defaults in the performance of any of its material obligations under this Agreement, and

whole or in affected part, as of the termination date specified in the notice. 
  
 (b) If AMD fails to make payments due to Spansion under this Agreement and does not cure such default within ninety (90) days after

remaining reports, documentation and materials still in its possession and owned by the other Party, other than reports, documentation and materials licensed to the Party possessing the same after the expiration or termination of this Agreement in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 15.1 Consequential Damages. Except for breaches of confidentiality obligations, in no event will either AMD or Spansion be liable for, nor shall
the measure of damages include, any damages for lost profits, lost income or lost revenue, or for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, arising out of or relating to its performance or failure to perform under this Agreement,
whether based on an action or claim in contract, equity, negligence or otherwise, and even if advised of the possibility of such damages. 
  
 15.2 Direct Damages. Each of the Parties shall be liable to the other for any direct damages arising out of or relating to its performance or

 15.3 Basis of the Bargain. Each Party acknowledges that the foregoing limitations are an essential element of the Agreement between the Parties and
that in the absence of such
