**<u>CEO Value Creation Equity Award</u>**

On February 11, 2026, the Committee recommended, and the Board approved the grant of a special long-term equity incentive award to Dr. Su, with a target value of $75 million for Dr. Su (the "<u>CEO Value Creation Equity Award</u>"). The CEO Value Creation Equity Award will be granted on March 15, 2026 (the "<u>Grant Date</u>"), under the terms of the Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. 2023 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the "<u>Plan</u>").

The CEO Value Creation Award is made in recognition of Dr. Su's unique value and the criticality of her contributions to the Company's strategic plans, to motivate and reward creation of exceptional shareholder value, and to further incentivize her long-term retention and dedication.

The Award will be converted into a target number of performance-based restricted stock units ("<u>PRSUs</u>") determined by dividing the Award's target value by the average closing price of the Company's stock over the 30 trading-day period ending on the Grant Date (the "<u>Conversion Price</u>"). The number of PRSUs that may be earned ranges from 0% to 200% of the target number of PRSUs based on achievement of stock price hurdles during the performance period that begins on the Grant Date and ends on March 15, 2031 (or, if earlier, the date of a change of control or Dr. Su's death or disability) (each as defined in the Plan)) (the "<u>Performance Period</u>"). Each earned PRSU represents the unfunded contractual right to receive one share of Company common stock upon vesting.

The Board and Compensation Committee designed the Award to strongly align Dr. Su's pay opportunities with our long-term strategic plan and shareholders' interests. The Award is 100% performance-based, tied to four stock price hurdles that are each substantially above the average closing price of the Company's stock over the 60 trading-day period ending on the Grant Date (the "<u>Baseline Price</u>"). Each of the four tranches vests if, and only if, the Company's 90-trading day average closing stock price meets or exceeds each hurdle during the Performance Period, subject to Dr. Su's continued employment or service.

| Threshold | 0% | Less than 10% |
| Tranche 1 | 50% | 10% |
| Tranche 2 | 100% | 15% |
| Tranche 3 | 150% | 17.5% |
| Tranche 4 | 200% | $600 |

____________

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) The stock price hurdles shown as percentages will be calculated based on the price per share that would result if the price increased from the Baseline Price to the price necessary to achieve a five-year compound annual growth rate ("CAGR") equal to such stated percentage. Final stock price hurdle for Tranche 1, Tranche 2 and Tranche 3 will be calculated on the Grant Date and rounded to the nearest $5.00.

In determining the stock price hurdles, the Committee considered the Company's all-time stock price high as of the Grant Date of $267.08, as well as the most recent five-year stock price CAGRs of both the S&P 500 and its current Information Technology constituents, and set the target hurdle price well above the 50<sup>th</sup> percentile of the most recent five-year CAGR observed for both groups.

Notwithstanding the date of hurdle achievement, any PRSUs that are earned on or before the third anniversary of the grant date will not vest until the third anniversary of the Grant Date, at which point 50% of such earned PRSUs will vest on the third anniversary of the Grant Date, with the remaining 50% vesting on the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date. Any PRSUs that are earned after the third anniversary of the Grant Date but before or on the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date will vest 100% on the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date.

For any earned PRSUs to vest, Dr. Su must remain in service as the Company's CEO or Executive Chair of the Board through the applicable vesting date. The extended vesting structure of the Award means that she will realize the full actual Award value only if she remains with the Company for the entire Performance Period (except in the case of death or disability or the limited termination scenarios outlined below). This design promotes long-term alignment with shareholders and with the Company's leadership continuity and retention objectives.

If Dr. Su is terminated for cause, all unvested and unearned PRSUs are forfeited. If she incurs a "covered termination" (as defined in her employment agreement), then (a) the unvested earned PRSUs that were scheduled to vest on or before the one-year anniversary of her termination date will immediately vest and (b) the unvested or unearned PRSUs will remain outstanding for 12 months (or, if earlier, until March 15, 2031 or the date of a change in control (as defined in the Plan)) and vest if such PRSUs would have vested had she remained employed in a covered position for such period.

Following a deliberative process, the Board and the Committee determined that the Award best served the Company's motivation and retention objectives aligning with our long-term strategic plan and the interests of our shareholders. Dr. Su is the principal architect of our strategic plan. The Board believes that Dr. Su's continued focus and strategic vision are critical to the successful execution of this shift. Accordingly, the Award directly ties her pay opportunities to our success, but only if (x) she remains in a full-time leadership role with the Company throughout the Performance Period and (y) successfully executes our strategies in a manner that drives market outperformance and sustained shareholder value creation. The Award is not part of Dr. Su's regular annual compensation. The Board intends that the Award be a one-time special equity award and that, absent extraordinary or unforeseen circumstances, she will not receive any other special equity award (i.e., an equity award outside of her regular annual compensation) for the duration of the Performance Period.

The foregoing description of the CEO Value Creation Award does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the CEO Value Creation Award agreement.
