Background 
 
FCT has
developed Confidential Information, trade secrets, patents and know-how regarding Ultra CSPTM wafer
bumping in the manufacture of flip chip integrated circuits; and certain Confidential Information, trade secrets, patents and know-how regarding the technology of redistributing bond pads on integrated circuits using a Redistribution Layer (RDL) to
facilitate wafer bumping in the manufacture of flip chip integrated circuits. 
 
On February 11, 1999, CMD and FCT entered into a License Agreement pursuant to which CMD received a license to practice the Ultra CSPTM Technology on non-silicon substrates. CMD now desires access to such Confidential Information, trade secrets, patents and know-how and to obtain
the assistance of FCT for implementing the technology, along with a license to use the Confidential Information, trade secrets, patents and know-how to produce flip chip integrated circuits on silicon wafers, with and without RDL as practiced for
Ultra CSPTM. 
 
FCT is willing to license CMD to use the Confidential Information, trade secrets, patents and know-how in accordance with this Agreement.
A separate royalty-free cross license agreement between the parties defines a technology transfer to FCT of CMD proprietary wafer thinning technology. 
 
Therefore FCT and CMD agree as follows:

First Amendment to License Agreement 
 
This First Amendment to License Agreement (this “ First
Amendment”) dated as of this 13th day of December, 2002 (the “Amendment Effective Date”) is made by and between the parties listed below and amends the License Agreement (the “Original Agreement”) between such parties made

	  	  )
	   	  

 
Background 
 
FCT and CMD
were negotiating an amendment and restatement to the Original Agreement in order to grant CMD a “have made” right and to add an additional Licensed Site as CMD believed it wanted to make Wafers using the Ultra CSPTM Technology itself in Tempe and for its contract manufacturer to make Wafers using the Ultra CSPTM Technology in Shanghai and as a result was willing to pay FCT an additional fee of $**. However, CMD subsequently
has decided tentatively on an alternative course of action and no longer requires or is willing to pay for this right and an additional Licensed Site. The parties have agreed to finalize the draft amendment and restatement of the Original Agreement
granting this right and an additional Licensed Site in exchange for such payment but have agreed not to enter into such amendment and restatement at present or to have any obligation to do so in the future. 
 
In the process of such negotiations, FCT and CMD recognized
the need to make certain amendments to the Original Agreement at present in order for CMD to be able to pursue its desired course of action and by this First Amendment desire to amend the Original Agreement accordingly. 
 
Therefore, FCT and CMD hereby agree as follows: 
 

 
** CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
HAS BEEN REQUESTED WITH RESPECT TO CERTAIN PORTIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. 

 
Agreement

 
1.    In Section 1.4 of the Original
Agreement, the first sentence shall be replaced to read in full as follows: 
 
“Licensed Site” means CMD’s facility located in Tempe Arizona. 
 
2.    Section 3.2 of the Original Agreement shall be replaced to read in full as follows: 
 
Except as otherwise stated in this section, CMD agrees to limit disclosure of Confidential Information to those CMD employees or consultants, or those
employees or consultants of a third party staffing a facility used by and subject to the direction and control of CMD, having a reasonable need to know such Confidential Information for CMD to practice the Ultra CSPTM Technology in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 
3.    In Section 4.1 of the Original Agreement, a new
second sentence shall be inserted, reading as follows: 
 
This
license includes the right for CMD to offer a service to third parties to make chip-scale products for them using the Ultra CSPTM Technology (including producing solder balls on Wafers) provided that the volume of third party Wafers does not exceed 10% of the volume of CMD Wafers in any calendar quarter. 
 
4.    In Section 4.2 of the Original Agreement, a new last
sentence shall be added, reading as follows: 
 
When changing the
location of a Licensed Site, it is understood and agreed that there shall be a reasonable time of overlap, not to exceed six months after production begins at the new Licensed Site, when both the old and new sites are concurrently licensed and
operating in order to facilitate an orderly transition without interruption of supply. 
 
5.    In Section 7.1 of the Original Agreement, the following shall be added as a new last sentence to the first paragraph: 
 
The above royalties need only be paid on “good Wafers” meaning Wafers that were used to make products that CMD (or
CMD’s service customers under Section 4.1) actually puts into its inventory to be sold to its customers or otherwise sells or samples to its customers. 
 
6.    In Section 17.2, the following shall be added at the end, just before the period: 
 
; provided that the rights and license granted under this Agreement may be
extended to Affiliates of CMD upon notice to FCT accompanied by the agreement of the Affiliate to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement 
 
7.    This First Amendment constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of CMD and FCT concerning its subject matter,
superseding all prior written and oral agreements and understandings concerning such subject matter. Except as amended as provided in Sections 1-5 above, the Original Agreement remains unchanged and in full force and effect. 

 
Authorized
Signatures 
 
To indicate agreement to the terms and conditions
of this First Amendment, the parties have had their designated representatives sign effective as of the date first set forth above.
