Such equipment shall be installed and qualified in on a timely basis so as to enable FoundryCo to meet its Product delivery requirements. To the extent new equipment or upgrades to existing equipment are required for FoundryCo to perform sorting services, the costs associated with such equipment or upgrades (including but not limited to installation and qualification expenses incurred by FoundryCo, not to exceed USD [****] per system) shall be paid by AMD. If AMD has not consigned test equipment to perform sort or cooperated with FoundryCo with regard to required upgrades on a timely basis (meaning such time as would be sufficient to sort the Production Wafers in the amount set forth in this Agreement by quarter), then each quarter
10
[****] = Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted because it is both (i) not material and (ii) would be competitively harmful if publicly disclosed.
FoundryCo may ship to AMD the 2015 Production Wafers in the amounts provided for in the Agreement and AMD shall accept such Wafers whether or not they have been sorted.
(b)To facilitate FoundryCo’s delivery, at its option, of sorted or unsorted Wafers at a third party location during the 2015 Period, the Parties agree that they will enter into a written arrangement similar to the arrangement outlined in the letter from AMD to FoundryCo dated [****] to provide for the delivery of wafers in a controlled fashion. The parties will use their best efforts to enter into such arrangement on or before [****].
(c)AMD agrees that it shall procure mask services for 2015 Production Wafers provided by FoundryCo [****] from FoundryCo. The pricing relating to mask services during the 2015 Period shall be as set forth in Exhibit G of this Fifth Amendment.
5.MISCELLANEOUS
