applicable, using 300mm manufacturing processes, or such other manufacturing processes as agreed upon from time to time, (b) at Spansion’s request, perform mask-making (and photolithography optimization), (c) perform Wafer probe
testing and other associated manufacturing tasks including performing failure analysis, process engineering, and pre-production testing, qualification and optimization activities, as further described below, (d) transport and deliver Contract
Wafers to Spansion’s chosen assembly, test, marking and packaging facilities and obtain and maintain all necessary import/export and customs clearances for such Contract Wafers; and (e) cooperate with Spansion to successfully conclude the
other activities agreed upon by the Parties in writing and set forth in any Process Supplement or Product Supplement (collectively, the “Foundry Services”). SMIC agrees to perform the Foundry Services in accordance with the
terms and conditions of this Agreement. SMIC is obligated to follow direction given by Spansion as to the manufacture of Contract Wafers including direction regarding systems, data, or the movement of Contract Wafers. SMIC shall be obligated to
follow the discipline, procedures, and system requirements as if it was an internal Spansion fab. Except as otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, Spansion will be responsible for product design, assembly, final test, marking, packaging,
distribution and sales of the Spansion Products and may perform or arrange for mask-making. 
 2.2 Site Restriction. All manufacturing
of Contract Wafers will take place at the Facilities. If SMIC desires to manufacture Contract Wafers at another facility or transfer any Spansion Process Technology to another SMIC facility, it will give Spansion at least one hundred and eighty
(180) days prior notice of the relocation to the new facility. If Spansion agrees to the transfer, the parties will mutually agree to a reasonable transition plan to avoid adverse impact on Spansion’s revenue stream. If Spansion notifies
SMIC within ninety (90) days of its reasonable objection to the new location, SMIC will not transfer the manufacture of such materials to the new facility. Failure of the part of SMIC to give Spansion reasonable assurances of avoidance of an
adverse impact on Spansion’s revenue stream shall be a basis for reasonable objection by Spansion to any such move. If an agreed upon transfer occurs, all transferred Contract Wafers and manufacturing processes will be re-qualified to the
extent necessary. If the transfer to another facility occurs solely for SMIC’s convenience or for other causes not directly related to Spansion interests, SMIC shall bear the costs of the transfer. Any assistance by Spansion requested by SMIC
which Spansion agrees to or deemed necessary by Spansion for any such transfer shall be paid for by SMIC at Spansion’s cost plus [*******].

Start Wafers bearing [*******] and the other party bearing [*******] of the then current wafer price for Contract Wafers. If Risk Start Wafers fail to meet the applicable quality specifications and standards, and both parties agreed to the
production of Risk Start Wafers, then the parties shall share the expense of such Risk Start Wafers with each party bearing fifty percent (50%) of the then current wafer price for Contract Wafers. SMIC shall comply with all instructions
regarding Risk Start Wafers. Risk Start Wafers shall be handled in the same manner as Contract Wafers absent specific instructions with the exception of shipping. Such Risk Start Wafers are not to be shipped until all qualification tests have been
completed and a shipping instruction is given to SMIC by Spansion. 
 4.3 Qualification Sample Lots. SMIC will produce and transfer to
Spansion the number of qualification sample Lots of the Contract Wafers as set forth in the applicable Product Supplement. Spansion will evaluate each Lot of qualification samples and will, using the acceptance criteria set forth in the Product
Supplements, issue a notice of approval or disapproval of the qualification Lots within ninety (90) days of Spansion’s receipt of such Contract Wafers. If Spansion rejects qualification sample Lots, the Parties will jointly cooperate in
developing a corrective action plan. Based on such plan, SMIC will manufacture additional Lots of sample qualification Wafers for Spansion’s evaluation. Spansion may purchase all qualification Wafers that are subsequently determined to meet the
Product Specifications. SMIC shall not be entitled to ship production quantities of Lots to Spansion until SMIC receives written notice of qualification of the sample Contract Wafers from Spansion. 
 4.4 Pre-Production Termination. At any time prior to qualification, Spansion may terminate fabrication of any qualification Contract Wafers by
giving SMIC written notice, which shall specify whether such Contract Wafers should be delivered to Spansion or scrapped. Upon receipt of such notice, SMIC will stop related fabrication at the conclusion of the manufacturing step in process.
Following such termination SMIC may invoice Spansion pro-rata based on percentage of completion for such qualification Contract Wafers.

Technology without the prior written consent of the other party, which the other party may withhold in its sole discretion, and (ii) neither party shall license or provide any Jointly Developed Technology to any competitor of the other party or
any infringer or potential infringer which the other party is pursuing or plans to pursue without the prior written consent of the other party, which the other party may withhold in its sole discretion. 
 13.4 Assignment of Rights. 
 (a) The
parties agree that the services under this Agreement have been commissioned by Spansion and therefore, any Technology resulting therefrom or any Intellectual Property Rights therein, to the extent such Technology and Intellectual Property Rights are
allocated to be owned by Spansion as described above in this Section 13, such Technology and Intellectual Property Rights shall be treated as commissioned works commissioned by Spansion. To the extent that the allocation of rights, title and
interests in and to any Intellectual Property specified in this Section 13 (entitled — Intellectual Property Ownership) do not automatically vest in the applicable Party, the other Party (the “Assignor”)
hereby assigns, transfers and conveys (and agrees to assign, transfer and convey or to cause to be assigned, transferred or conveyed) to the other Party (the 

  

 22 

 

 
 CONFIDENTIAL 
  

 
“Assignee”) such of the Assignor’s right, title and interest in and to all such Intellectual Property as is necessary to achieve
such allocation. The Assignor will provide, at the Assignee’s expense, all assistance reasonably required by the Assignee to consummate, record and perfect the foregoing assignment, including, but not limited to, signing all papers and
documents necessary to register and/or record such assignment with the United States Patent & Trademark Office, United States Copyright Office, other state and federal agencies and all corresponding government agencies and departments in
all other countries, where applicable. Assignor hereby appoints Assignee as its attorney-in-fact to act as Assignor to execute and file the papers and documents specified in this Section 13 (entitled — Intellectual Property
Ownership) if Assignor is unwilling or unable to comply with the foregoing sentence of this paragraph (a) (entitled — Assignment of Rights). 
 (b) To the extent, if any, that any right, title or interest in and to any Technology or Intellectual Property Right intended to be assigned to Assignor pursuant to paragraph (a) above is at any time determined
in any jurisdiction not to belong to Assignor, then Assignee hereby grants an exclusive, even with respect to Assignee, irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free and fully paid up license to Assignor, (transferable and sublicensable by Assignor without
limitation) to exploit such Technology or Intellectual intended to be owned by Assignor under the terms and conditions of Section 13 and all rights therein in such jurisdiction for any purpose. Such exclusive license shall continue in effect
for the maximum term as may now or hereafter be permissible under applicable law. 
 13.5 Protection and Enforcement. Each Party shall
have the right, in its sole discretion and at its own expense, to apply for, maintain and enforce and Intellectual Property Rights (including registrations therefor) with respect to the Technology owned by such Party as described above in this
Section 13. Each party shall cooperate in good faith with respect to the protection and enforcement of Jointly Developed Technology. If the parties jointly decide to file for Intellectual Property protection of any Jointly Developed Technology,
the parties shall, unless they otherwise agree in writing, jointly file and maintain such Intellectual Property Rights (including registrations therefor), with each party bearing one-half of the costs of such filing and maintenance. 
 13.6 Overlapping Technology. If and to the extent that SMIC Technology and Spansion Technology are substantially the same, each Party shall retain
their innate or pre-existing ownership therein. For example, Spansion will transfer process information to SMIC, all of which will constitute Spansion Technology, but some of which will already be in SMIC’s possession as existing
semiconductor manufacturing technology. The Parties do not intend this article 13 to alter their respective ownership interests in such substantially similar technology.

	 	•	 	 [*******] 

  

	 	•	 	 [*******] 

  

	 	•	 	 [*******] 

  

	 	•	 	 [*******] 

 The capacity ramp-up plan
above should be adjusted accordingly with the Milestone adjusted as a result of delayed provision of Deliverables by Spansion pursuant to Section 4. 
  

	10.	SUPPLY COMMITMENT: 

  

	 	 a.
	 Subject to the capacity ramp-up plan in Section 9 above, SMIC will commit to and deliver to Spansion a
maximum of [*******] of Spansion MirrorBit® ORNAND2TM products at 43nm [*******] and follow-on Charge Trapping based flash memory technologies and any NOR products throughout the Term
of this Product Supplement, where such [*******] may be reasonably adjusted in the event there is a loss of capacity due to product/technology conversion. 

 In the event the Milestones provided for in Section 4 above are not met due to Spansion’s failure of timely provision of the Deliverable, or the
capacity ramp-up plan is delayed or is anticipated to be delayed by the causes beyond SMIC’s control, including without limitation that the necessary licenses, permits and authorization can not be duly approved by the appropriate governmental
authorities, the Parties will negotiate a reduction to the Supply Commitment. If the Parties fail to reach agreement on such a reduction within sixty (60) calendar days, SMIC may terminate its Supply Commitment. 
  

	 	b.	Throughout the Term, SMIC shall maintain, and make available to Spansion manufacturing capacity to provide Contract Wafers in amounts at least equal to the Minimum Loading
Commitment or in accordance with the agreed to Firmly Forecast Orders (whichever is lower in total) (the “Supply Commitment”). 

  

	 	c.	Spansion recognizes that the Supply Commitment is based on SMIC being profitable at the prices set forth in Section 16. In the event SMIC is not profitable at such wafer
prices, SMIC will notify Spansion, provide substantiating information to Spansion, and the Parties will meet to negotiate an alternative solution reasonably acceptable to the Parties. If such negotiations do not result in an agreed to solution
within sixty (60) calendar days from SMIC’s notice, SMIC may notify Spansion in writing to terminate this Supply Commitment without liability, which termination is effective in ninety (90) calendar days from SMIC providing notice of
termination of this Supply Commitment. 

  

	11.	MINIMUM LOADING COMMITMENT 

  

	 	a.	Subject to the capacity ramp-up plan in Section 9 above and compliance with the Milestones provided for in Section 4 above, and SMIC meeting its Supply Commitment,
Spansion shall purchase, on a monthly basis [*******] (the “Minimum Loading Commitment”). 

  

 [*******] Confidential treatment requested. 
  

 5 

 In the event the Milestones provided for in Section 4 above are not met due to SMIC’s failure
of timely provision of the Deliverable, or the capacity ramp-up plan is delayed or is anticipated to be delayed by the causes beyond SMIC’s control, including without limitation that the necessary licenses, permits and authorization can not be
duly approved by the appropriate governmental authorities, the Parties will negotiate a reduction to the Minimum Loading Commitment. If the Parties fail to reach agreement on such a reduction within sixty (60) calendar days, Spansion may
terminate its Minimum Loading Commitment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Spansion shall have the right to continue the Product Supplement under the original Minimum Loading Commitment. 
  

	 	b.	If, for any month, Spansion fails to purchase the Minimum Loading Commitment, then Spansion may, without penalty, purchase the balance of the Contract Wafers not purchased in such
month within ninety (90) days of the end of the month in which Spansion fails to purchase such quantities (“Makeup Period”), provided that such balance shall not exceed thirty percent (30%) of the monthly Minimum Loading
Commitment. Spansion may also without penalty, count any NOR wafers purchased from SMIC towards Spansion’s Minimum Loading Commitment. 

  

	 	c.	SMIC will make available to Spansion manufacturing capacity sufficient to permit Spansion to satisfy the foregoing Minimum Loading Commitment. If SMIC terminates its Supply
Commitment, pursuant to Section 10 c of this Product Supplement, Spansion may terminate its Minimum Loading Commitment. SMIC recognizes that early acquisition, installation and testing of equipment will be required in order for SMIC to meet its
obligation to provide sufficient manufacturing capacity to Spansion and agrees to perform such activities in a timely manner. 

  

	 	d.	SMIC recognizes that the Minimum Loading Commitment is based on Spansion being profitable selling products that are manufactured from the Contract Wafers, when such Contract Wafers
are purchased at the prices set forth in Section 16. In the event Spansion is not profitable at such wafer prices, Spansion will notify SMIC, provide substantiating information to SMIC, and the Parties will meet to negotiate an alternative
solution reasonably acceptable to both Parties. The failure for both Parties to reach an acceptable solution and an agreement on the terms for SMIC’s manufacture of the [*******] (as described below) will not affect Spansion’s commitment
and/or liability pursuant to this Product Supplement. 

  

	 	e.	Subject to Spansion having customer requirements for an [*******], SMIC providing reasonable assistance to Spansion to implement such [*******] and the Parties reaching agreement on
terms for SMIC’s manufacture of such [*******], Spansion and SMIC agree to install such [*******] technology for additional loading balance. 

  

	12.	SHORTFALL CONDITIONS: 

  

	 	a.	MITIGATION TO MEET MINIMUM LOADING COMMITMENT 

  

	 	i.	If Spansion believes that in any time period it will not be able to fulfill its Minimum Loading Commitment concerning not yet started wafers, it shall inform SMIC. Upon
receiving such notice, SMIC shall use reasonable commercial efforts to mitigate the adverse impact and costs of such potential shortfall, including seeking other customers for such unutilized capacity and reducing its operating costs in anticipation
of such reduced purchases. 

  

 [*******] Confidential treatment requested.

Contract Wafers at least equal to the Supply Commitment or the agreed to Firmly Forecast Orders (whichever is lower), it shall pay to Spansion the penalties for such supply shortfall set forth in Section 12b.vi. 

  

	 	v.	If in any month SMIC does not provide any Contract Wafers to Spansion at a level at least equal to the Supply Loading Commitment or the agreed to Firmly Forecast Orders (whichever
is lower), then unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties, SMIC shall pay to Spansion the penalties set forth in Section 12.b.vi below. Such penalties shall be Spansion’s sole and exclusive remedy, and SMIC’s sole and exclusive
obligation with respect to such failure. 

  

	 	vi.	For any month SMIC fails to make available to Spansion the Supply Commitment or the agreed to Firmly Forecast Orders (whichever is lower), to the extent Spansion does not reduce its
Minimum Loading Commitment pursuant to Section 12.b.ii above, SMIC shall pay Spansion an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) [*******] by (ii) [*******] by (iii) [*******], provided that SMIC shall not be
liable for the foregoing payment for a month in which SMIC makes available to Spansion [*******] of the Minimum Loading Commitment or is otherwise in accordance with the agreed to Firmly Forecast Orders for such month and makes up any shortfall in
the following month. Such payments along with the price adjustments reducing Fixed Costs, shall be SMIC’s sole and exclusive obligation for such failure to meet the Supply Commitment and shall be Spansion’s sole and exclusive remedy for
such failure. 

  

 [*******] Confidential treatment requested.

 The Parties acknowledge that pricing
will commence with “Wafer Based Pricing” (price listed in Section 16 below, without regard to wafer Yield) and move to “Die Based Pricing” (price for one wafer, adjusted by SMIC’s actual performance to Target Yield) as
follows: 
 Period I – Wafer Buy: [*******] production Wafers. 
 Spansion pays base Wafer price calculated in accordance with Section 16 below for production Contract Wafers in this period 
 Period II – Shared Risk: Duration is 6 months from the end of Period I.

 Spansion pays [*******] 
 “Base Wafer Price” is the price for one wafer, without regard to wafer Yield. 
 Period III
– Die-Buy: This period begins at the end of Period II. 
 Regardless of what SMIC Actual NDW is, Spansion wafer price shall be based on
the following formulas:

	16.	WAFER PRICING 

 The 43nm Contract Wafer price shall
be as below: 
  

					
	 	  	Forecast
Wafer/Month	 	43nm
Wafer Price
	 Q3/2009
	  	[*******]	 	[*******]
	 Q4/2009
	  	[*******]	 	[*******]
	 Q1/2010
	  	[*******]	 	[*******]
	 Q2/2010
	  	[*******]	 	[*******]

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if SMIC is not able to fulfill the Supply Commitment or
the agreed to Firmly Forecast Orders (whichever is lower) for the stage mentioned above, the 43nm Contract Wafer price for the non-compliant stage shall be [*******]. 
 For clarification purpose, the wafer price above does not include the wafer sorting cost. Spansion may request that SMIC provides wafer sorting service in
which case Spansion will assist SMIC to convert the sorting program onto SMIC’s existing testing platform for such sorting service and the parties would negotiate acceptable prices. 
 The Contract Wafer price for Follow-on Charge Trapping Technologies [*******] will be defined by [*******]. In the event that agreement on the Contract
Wafer price is not achieved by that time, Spansion may terminate its Minimum Loading Commitment and SMIC may terminate its Supply Commitment.
