 Spansion and SMIC 
  

			
	Amendment	  	This fourth amendment (the “Fourth Amendment”) to the Foundry Agreement dated August 31, 2007, and as amended (the “Agreement”), is entered into
between Spansion LLC (“Spansion”) and Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (“SMIC”), on behalf of themselves and their Affiliates, including without limitation the Facilities. In consideration of the promises and
mutual covenants of the parties, it is agreed that the Agreement shall be modified to include the following terms:
		
	Fourth Amendment Effective Date	  	December 23, 2011
		
	Form of assistance	  	Amendment to the terms and conditions of (1) the prepayment set forth in the Second Amendment to Foundry Agreement dated December 14, 2011 (the “First Prepayment”), (2)
the prepayment set forth in the Amendment to Foundry Agreement dated May 16, 2011 (the “Second Prepayment”), and (3) miscellaneous other terms and conditions of the Agreement as set forth below.
		
	Amendment to First Prepayment	  	Prepayment Terms. As of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, USD [*] on each Contract Wafer shipped by SMIC to Spansion will be deducted from the
remaining portion of the First Prepayment amount of USD$20,000,000 until the remaining prepayment credits are used up.
		  	
	Amendment to Second Prepayment	  	 As of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, the terms and conditions of the Second Prepayment are amended, as follows:

 

•     Prepayment Amount. The amount of the Second Prepayment is
reduced from USD $50,000,000 to USD $35,000,000 “Reduced Second Prepayment Amount”) by eliminating Spansion’s obligation to prepay USD $15,000,000 in February 2012;

 

•     Prepayment Terms. The term over which the Second Prepayment
shall be applied to Contract Wafers is extended through [*]. Prepayment credits shall be deducted from the remaining portion of the Reduced Second Prepayment as follows:

 
 •     Through
December 31, 2013, (1) if the total number of Contract Wafers shipped by SMIC to Spansion in a calendar month is [*] or less, there shall be no deduction for any of the Contract Wafers, and (2) if the total number of Contract Wafers
shipped by SMIC to Spansion in a calendar month is greater than [*], there shall be (a) a deduction of USD [*] on each 65nm and 45nm Contract Wafer and (b) a deduction of USD *] on each 90nm Contract
Wafer;
  

•     After December 31, 2013 and through [*], there shall be (a) a
deduction of USD[*] on each 65nm and 45nm Contract Wafer and (b) a deduction of USD[*] on each 90nm Contract Wafer.
  

•     In the event that the prepayment credits are not used up by
[*], due to WXIC not providing sufficient capacity or any other reason beyond Spansion’s reasonable control, then SMIC will return the remaining balance to Spansion in full by within sixty (60) days of that date. If Spansion fails
to draw down the entire Reduced Second Prepayment Amount by [*] due to reasons solely within its reasonable control, the balance is forgiven by Spansion.

  

			
		
	 	  	•     Cost of Capital Compensation. The paragraph of this section regarding SMIC’s obligation to compensate
Spansion for the
cost of the Second Prepayment by paying Spansion the equivalent of [*] of the balance
remaining of the Prepayment Amount is deleted in its entirety.  
 •     Other Terms of the Prepayment:
  
 •     The 10% penalty set forth in the first paragraph of this section shall be equal to USD $3,500,000.00 in
order to reflect the Reduced Second Prepayment Amount of USD
$35,000,000.
  
 •     The final of paragraph of this section regarding Spansion’s
minimum orders in 2015 is deleted in its
entirety.

		
	Amendment to SMIC Minimum Capacity	  	 As of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, SMIC shall provide the following minimum Contract Wafer delivery capacity to Spansion for

calculated at a rate of (1) USD [*] for each Contract Wafer less than [*] Contract Wafers for up to the first [*] Contract Wafers and (2) USD [*] for each additional Contract Wafer Spansion failed to order in that calendar year thereafter. No later
than December 31, 2011, Spansion shall pay SMIC a non-refundable payment of USD [*], which includes a one time Underloading Penalty of [*] for [*], which SMIC shall apply as a credit to any future Underloading Penalty incurred by Spansion under the
Agreement. The above penalties will apply to the following future wafer minimum wafer purchases: for 2013/2014/2015/[*], the [*] for each Contract Wafer applies to the first [*] wafers underloaded, and thereafter [*] for each Contract Wafer Spansion
fails to order.
		
	Scrap Limit	  	As of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, the low yield scrap limit is [*].
		
	Miscellaneous	  	Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Fourth Amendment shall have the same meaning as those set forth in the Agreement. The parties agree that
except as amended in the manner specified above, all remaining provisions of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and shall apply to this Amendment. This Amendment may be signed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall

 Exhibit
10.21(e) 
 AMENDMENT No. 4 
 to 
 Foundry Agreement 

between 

Texas Instruments Incorporated and Spansion LLC and Nihon Spansion Trading 

Limited 
 This Amendment No. 4 (“Amendment”) to the Foundry Agreement is entered into this 8th day of November, 2011 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Spansion LLC, having its principal place of
business at 915 DeGuigne Drive, Sunnyvale, California 94088-3453, U.S.A. (“Spansion”), Nihon Spansion Trading Limited, as successor in interest to Nihon Spansion Limited, having its principal place of business at 1-14, Nishin-cho,
Kawasaki-shi, Kawasaki-ku, Kanagawa 210-0024, Japan (“Spansion Nihon”) (Spansion Nihon and Spansion, the “Spansion Entities”), and Texas Instruments Incorporated, having its principal place of business at 12500 TI Boulevard,
Dallas, Texas 75266, U.S.A. (“TI”). Spansion, Spansion Nihon, and TI are collectively referred to as “Parties” to this Amendment and, individually, as a “Party” to this Amendment. 

Whereas, Spansion, Nihon Spansion Limited, and TI entered into a Foundry Agreement with an effective date of August 31, 2010, which was
subsequently amended by Amendments Nos. 1, 2, and 3 (collectively, the “Agreement”); 
 Whereas, Spansion, Nihon Spansion
Limited, Spansion Nihon, and TI consented to the assignment of the Agreement from Nihon Spansion Limited to Spansion Nihon, effective December 27, 2010; 
 Whereas, in [*]; 
 Whereas, in [*], the Parties agree to amend
the terms of the Agreement as set forth herein. 
 Now therefore, the Parties hereby agree as follows: 

I. Exhibit A of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the attached Exhibit A. 

II. Exhibit D of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the attached Exhibit D. 

III. TI will provide to Spansion a list of estimated raw materials and raw silicon unique to Spansion product that was ordered by TI in order to help
enable TI to perform TI’s Wafer manufacturing obligations pursuant to the Agreement and that remains at TI after TI meets its 1Q12 Wafer supply commitment (the “Excess Material”). A preliminary list of the estimated Excess Material is
attached hereto as Exhibit E. TI agrees the actual Excess Material will not increase by more than five percent (5%) in 

 
aggregate value from that listed in Exhibit E. TI will make reasonable efforts to reduce the Excess Material and to return the Excess Material to TI’s suppliers. Spansion will purchase the
actual Excess Material at TI’s purchase cost, pursuant to the payment terms in Section 7.2 of the Agreement, no later than two (2) weeks after the end of 1Q12. Spansion will not be responsible for any partial containers of gasses or
chemicals. TI will make the Excess Material available and Spansion shall be responsible for all freight costs and pick up within thirty (30) days after the end of 1Q12. 
 IV. The Parties, on their own behalf and on behalf of their respective attorneys, representatives, successors, and assigns, hereby completely release and forever discharge the other Parties, their
parents, affiliated and subsidiary corporations, from any and all claims, rights, demands, actions, obligations, outstanding debts and causes of action of any and every kind, nature and character, known or unknown, that the Parties may now have, or
have ever had, or which may hereafter accrue against the other Parties in any way arising from, related to, or connected with the [*]. For clarification, nothing in this paragraph releases either Party for claims, rights, demands,
actions, obligations, outstanding debts and causes of action of any and every kind, nature and character, arising from acts or omissions occurring after the date of this Amendment. 
 V. TI and Spansion acknowledge their mutual agreement to terminate the Transition Services Agreement, dated March 29, 2010, between Spansion and Spansion Japan Limited, and assumed by TI from
Spansion Japan Limited on or about September 1, 2010. Such termination will be memorialized in a separate written agreement. 
 VI.
Capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meaning as those set forth in the Agreement.

 Exhibit A: 
 Minimum Sort Services Fee 
 Pursuant to the Release notice provided by
Spansion to TI on July 20, 2011, the minimum quarterly sort service fee will remain at $[*] for 4Q11. 
 TI
will continue to sort Wafers for Spansion during 1Q12 during normal production hours only, with no overtime, from December 26, 2011 until January 24, 2012. Spansion will give TI an estimate of tester requirements for the thirty
(30) day period by December 12, 2011. There will be no minimum quarterly sort service fee for 1Q12, unless Spansion exercises that option as described below. 
 Spansion will pay for such sort services at the hourly rate(s) specified in Exhibit B of this Agreement. However, upon Spansion’s written request to TI provided no later than December 12, 2011,
TI will continue to provide sort services for the entirety of 1Q12, and the minimum quarterly sort services fee of $[*] from 4Q11 shall apply for 1Q12. 
 After 4Q11, the “Minimum Tester Availability” in Section 3 of Exhibit B of the Agreement will not apply. For clarification, Section II.A of Amendment No. 3 will likewise be
inapplicable. As such, TI shall not be required to maintain the testers and minimum availability in the chart in Section 3 of Exhibit B. However, if Spansion opts to receive full sort services for 1Q12 per the provisions above and timely
submits such request, the Minimum Tester Availability table and Section II.A of Amendment No. 3 will apply. 

  
 [*] Certain
information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities 
 and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment

 portions.

 Exhibit D: 
 4Q11 through 4Q12 Minimum Commitment 
 Spansion agrees to cause Spansion Nihon to purchase,
and Spansion agrees to purchase (or pay for such quantities), from TI as the 4Q11 through 4Q12 Minimum Commitment the following volume of Aizu unsorted Wafers of the following technologies: 110 nm, 130 nm, and 170 nm, at the pricing agreed on by the
parties in Exhibit B. 
  

																					
	 Minimum Commitment (take or pay)
	  	4Q11	 	  	1Q12	 	  	2Q12	 	  	3Q12	 	  	4Q12	 
		  	 	30,293	  	  	 	6,350	  	  	 	0	  	  	 	0	  	  	 	0	  

 There will be no Upside Quantities for 4Q11-4Q12, unless mutually agreed in writing.

 In addition, TI will start an additional three-hundred (300) Wafers with a device mix defined by Spansion no later
than November 7, 2011. Spansion has the option to purchase these Wafers or a portion thereof by notifying TI in writing of its intent to purchase these Wafers by the end of 1Q12 and submitting payment no later than thirty (30) days
after the end of 1Q12 at JPY [*] per Wafer. If such notice is not received by the end of 1Q12, TI will scrap the remaining Wafers and Spansion will pay JPY [*] per Wafer. 

In addition to the Minimum Commitment amounts above, Spansion will purchase, no later than the end of 1Q12, the five-thousand six-hundred and fifty-three
(5,653) Wafers from TI that TI started processing pursuant to the 4Q11 QBP agreed on by TI and Spansion. 
 If TI scraps Wafers ordered by
Spansion Nihon (or by Spansion on behalf of Spansion Nihon) pursuant to the 4Q11 through 4Q12 Minimum Commitment or a subsequent QBP due to Spansion’s change to a particular mask set or at Spansion’s direction, Spansion Nihon shall pay to
TI a pro rata portion of the Wafer price based on the number of steps through which such Wafers had been processed at the time such Wafers were scrapped. 
 For clarification purposes, such pro rata payment shall apply only to Wafers that Spansion Nihon committed to purchase pursuant to the 4Q11 through 4Q12 Minimum Commitment or a subsequent QBP. At
Spansion’s option, Spansion may reduce the 4Q11 through 4Q12 Minimum Commitment by the pro rata amount paid by Spansion Nihon for such scrapped Wafers.
