TERMS AND CONDITIONS

STOCK OPTION AWARD

ADVANCED MICRO DEVICES, INC. 2023 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

These Terms and Conditions, collectively with the accompanying Stock Option Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) and any country-specific terms and conditions for your country contained in the AMD Country Appendix (as updated from time to time, the “AMD Country Appendix”), comprise your agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Company regarding the stock options (the “Options”) awarded under the Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended or restated from time to time, the “Plan”). Capitalized terms not specifically defined herein have the same meanings assigned to them in the Plan.

1. Vesting of Options.

(a) General. The Options will vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the Grant Notice, provided that you continue to be an active Service Provider through each vesting date.

(b) Termination without Cause or Constructive Termination under Employment Agreement. This Section 1(b) shall apply to you only if you are party to a valid written employment agreement, offer letter, or similar agreement with the Company or an Affiliate that has been approved by the Compensation and Leadership Resources Committee (the “CLRC”) or the Board (an “Employment Agreement”) that provides that you will become vested in all or any portion of the then outstanding unvested Options covered by this Award upon your involuntary termination of employment without cause or constructive termination (as such terms are defined in the Employment Agreement). If you are party to an Employment Agreement on the date on which you cease to be an Employee, then, notwithstanding anything in Section 1(a), 6, or 8(e) to the contrary, upon your involuntary termination of employment without cause or your constructive termination (as such terms are defined in the Employment Agreement), the provisions of the Employment Agreement shall govern, including the Employment Agreement’s definitions of “cause” and “constructive termination”, if the terms of the Employment Agreement result in you becoming vested in a greater number of outstanding unvested Options than you would otherwise would vest upon your termination in the absence of such Employment Agreement.

2. Exercise of Options.

(a) Right to Exercise. The Options are exercisable during their term in accordance with the vesting schedule set out in the Grant Notice and the applicable provisions of the Plan and the Agreement. The Options may only be exercised for whole Shares.

(b) Method of Exercise. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, the Options are exercisable during your lifetime only by you, and after your death only by your legal representative. The Options may only be exercised by the delivery to the Company of a properly completed written notice of exercise (the “Notice of Exercise”), in the form specified by the Administrator or its designee, which may be electronic or written. The Notice of Exercise must specify the number of Shares to be purchased and the exercise price for such Shares as set forth in the Grant Notice (the “Exercise Price”), together with payment in full of such aggregate Exercise Price and all applicable Tax-Related Items (as defined in Section 7). In the event the Options or a portion thereof are exercised by any person or persons other than you, the Options may only be exercised by the delivery to the Company of appropriate proof of the right of such person or persons to exercise the Options. Payment must be made in a manner permitted in Section 3 below or as authorized by the Administrator pursuant to the Plan and/or as specified in the AMD Country Appendix. The Options may not be exercised unless you agree to be bound by such documents as the Administrator may require, including all Award Documentation. The Notice of Exercise must be received by the Company prior to the termination or expiration of the Option.

(c) Exercise Price. The Exercise Price shall be as set forth in the Grant Notice, without commission or other charge; provided, however, that the Exercise Price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Grant Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if these Options are designated as Incentive Stock Options and you own (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any “subsidiary corporation” of the Company or any “parent corporation” of the Company (each within the meaning of Section 424 of the Code), the Exercise Price shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Grant Date.

The Administrator may deny any exercise otherwise permitted hereunder if the Administrator determines, in its discretion, that such exercise could result in a violation of U.S. federal, state or foreign securities laws.

3. Method of Payment. Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price must be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, unless provided otherwise in the AMD Country Appendix:

Form of Stock Option Agreement 2
Approved May 17, 2023 – Terms and Conditions

(a) cash, check or wire transfer (whether paid or payable directly to the Company or indirectly through a brokerage account approved by the Administrator for payment to the Company);

(b) consideration received by the Company under a cashless exercise program implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan, including without limitation, a broker-assisted cashless exercise; and/or

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company reserves the right to restrict the methods of payment of the Exercise Price if necessary to comply with Applicable Laws, as determined by the Company in its discretion.

4. Nontransferability of Options. The Options may not be pledged, assigned, sold or otherwise transferred other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, unless and until the Shares underlying the Options have been issued, and all restrictions applicable to such Shares have lapsed. Neither the Options nor any interest or right therein shall be liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of you or your successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy), and any attempted disposition thereof shall be null and void and of no effect, except to the extent that such disposition is permitted by the preceding sentence. The terms of the Plan and the Agreement will be binding upon your executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns.

5. Term of Option. The Options may be exercised only within the term set out in the Grant Notice, which shall in no event be more than seven years from the Grant Date, and may be exercised during such term only in accordance with the Plan and the terms of the Agreement. If these Options are designated as Incentive Stock Options and you owned (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code), at the time the Options were granted, more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any “subsidiary corporation” of the Company or any “parent corporation” of the Company (each within the meaning of Section 424 of the Code), the term shall be in no event more than five years from the Grant Date.

6. Termination as a Service Provider.

(a) Termination Generally. If your status as an active Service Provider terminates for any reason, other than death or Disability or for Misconduct, vested Options may be exercised at any time before the earlier of (i) the expiration date set forth in the Grant Notice or (ii) the date that is three (3) months after your date of termination, whichever is the shorter period, but only to the extent you were entitled to exercise the Options at the date of termination, as described in Sections 1 and 2 hereof.

(b) Termination Due to Death. If your status as an active Service Provider terminates due to your death, your then outstanding unvested Options will become immediately vested and exercisable. Your estate or beneficiary(ies), as applicable, will have twelve (12) months from the date of your death to exercise any vested and exercisable Options (including, for avoidance of doubt, any Options that vest and become exercisable pursuant to this Section 6(b)). In no case will the post-termination exercise period extend beyond the term limit for the Options as set out in the Grant Notice.

(c) Termination Due to Disability. If your status as an active Service Provider terminates due to your Disability, any outstanding unvested Options that would have vested in the calendar year of your Disability will become immediately vested and exercisable. You (or your legal representative, as applicable) will have twelve (12) months from the date your status as a Service Provider is terminated due to Disability to exercise any vested and exercisable Options. In no case will the post-termination exercise period extend beyond the term limit for the Options as set out in the Grant Notice.

(d) Termination due to Misconduct. If your status as an active Service Provider terminates for Misconduct or if you engage in Misconduct while the Options are outstanding, then the Options shall terminate immediately and cease to be outstanding. If your employment or service is suspended pending an investigation of whether you will be terminated for Misconduct, all of yours rights under the Options, including any right to exercise the Options, shall be suspended during the investigation period.

For purposes of this Award, (x) your status as a Service Provider will terminate if you cease to be either (i) an Employee, (ii) a Director, or (iii) a Consultant that is performing services for the Company or an Affiliate pursuant to a consulting services (or similar) agreement approved by the CLRC; and (y) your status as an active Service Provider will be considered terminated (regardless of the reason for termination and whether or not the termination is in breach of applicable laws), effective as of the date that you are no longer actively employed or providing services and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under applicable laws (e.g., active employment or service would not include a period of “garden

Form of Stock Option Agreement 3
Approved May 17, 2023 – Terms and Conditions

leave” or similar period pursuant to applicable laws). The Administrator will have the exclusive discretion to determine when you are no longer actively employed or providing services for purposes of your Options (including whether you may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence).

7. Responsibility for Taxes. Regardless of any action the Company or, if different, your employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefit tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to your participation in the Plan and legally applicable to you (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains your responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. You further acknowledge that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Options, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or exercise of the Options, the issuance of Shares upon exercise of the Options, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the Award or any aspect of the Options to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if you are subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, you acknowledge that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, you will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items (including hypothetical withholding tax amounts if you are covered under a Company tax equalization policy). In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy any applicable withholding obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following:

(a) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option, either through a voluntary sale (specifically including where you exercise this Option in accordance with Section 3(b) above) or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization) without your further consent or direction;

(b) withholding in Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Options;

(c) requiring you to make a payment in cash, check or wire transfer (whether directly to the Company or the Employer or indirectly through a brokerage account approved by the Administrator for payment to the Company or the Employer); or

(d) any other method determined by the Company in its discretion and permitted by the Plan and Applicable Law.

Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering statutory withholding rates or other withholding rates, including maximum rates applicable in your jurisdiction(s), in which case you may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the equivalent amount in Shares. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, you are deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the exercise, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of your participation in the Plan.

If you are covered by a Company or Employer tax equalization policy, you agree to pay to the Company or Employer any additional hypothetical tax obligation calculated and paid under the terms of such tax equalization policy. Finally, you must pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of your participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to honor the exercise or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares, if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

8. Other Terms and Conditions.

(a) The Plan. The Agreement is further subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan. Only certain provisions of the Plan are described in the Agreement. As a condition to your receipt and exercise of the Options, you acknowledge and agree to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and the terms and provisions of the Plan.

(b) Activation of Brokerage Account. This award of Options is subject to and conditioned on your activation of a brokerage account with the Company’s designated brokerage firm on or before the last business day immediately preceding the first vesting date of the Options. If you fail to timely activate a brokerage account with the Company’s

Form of Stock Option Agreement 4
Approved May 17, 2023 – Terms and Conditions

designated brokerage firm, then this award and all of the Options covered by this award will be immediately cancelled and forfeited and you will not receive any other benefits or compensation as replacement for the Options.

(c) Stockholder Rights. Until the Shares are issued upon exercise, you have no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder with respect to the Options.

(d) Employment Relationship. Nothing in the Agreement will confer on you any right to continue in the employ of the Company or the Employer or interfere with or restrict rights of the Company or the Employer, which are hereby expressly reserved, to terminate your employment at any time.

(e) Change of Control. If your employment is terminated by the Company or the Employer (including for this purpose any successor to the Company due to such Change of Control and any employer that is an Affiliate of such successor) for any reason other than for Misconduct or, if applicable, by you as a result of a Constructive Termination, within one year after a Change of Control, then the Options will become fully vested upon the date of termination.

(f) Declination of Options. If you wish to decline your Options, you must complete and file the Declination of Grant form with Corporate Compensation and Benefits no later than the date that is three (3) calendar months following the Grant Date. Your declination is non-revocable, and you will not receive any other benefits or compensation as replacement for the declined Options. Your decision to not timely file the Declination of Grant form will constitute your acceptance of the Award on the terms on which it is offered, as set forth in this Agreement and the Plan.

(g) Claw-back/Forfeiture. The Options (including any proceeds, gains or other economic benefit actually or constructively received by you upon any receipt of the Options or upon the receipt or resale of any Shares underlying the Options) shall be subject to the provisions of any compensation recovery (“claw-back”) policy implemented by the Company and applicable to you, including, without limitation, any such policy adopted to comply with the requirements of Applicable Laws.

(h) Incentive Stock Options. If you are a U.S. taxpayer and your Options are designated as Incentive Stock Options, you hereby acknowledge that, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time the Options are granted) of all Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options, including the Options (if applicable), are exercisable for the first time by you in any calendar year exceeds $100,000, the Options and such other options shall be Non-Qualified Stock Options to the extent necessary to comply with the limitations imposed by Section 422(d) of the Code. You further acknowledge that the rule set forth in the preceding sentence shall be applied by taking the Options and other “incentive stock options” into account in the order in which they were granted, as determined under Section 422(d) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. You acknowledge that an Incentive Stock Option exercised more than three months after your termination of employment, other than by reason of death or Disability, will be taxed as a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

9. Nature of Grant. In accepting the grant, you acknowledge, understand and agree that:

(a) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time;

27. Section 409A. The Options are not intended to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code (together with any U.S. Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the date hereof, “Section 409A”). However, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or the Agreement, if at any time the Administrator determines that the Options (or any portion thereof) may be subject to Section 409A, the Administrator shall have the right in its sole discretion (without any obligation to do so or to indemnify you or any other person for failure to do so) to adopt such amendments to the Plan or the Agreement, or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, as the Administrator determines are necessary or appropriate either for the Options to be exempt from the application of Section 409A or to comply with the requirements of Section 409A.

28. Limitation on Participant’s Rights. Participation in the Plan confers no rights or interests other than as herein provided. The Agreement creates only a contractual obligation on the part of the Company as to amounts payable and shall not be construed as creating a trust. Neither the Plan nor any underlying program, in and of itself, has any assets. You shall have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to amounts credited and benefits payable, if any, with respect to the Options, and rights no greater than the right to receive the Shares as a general unsecured creditor with respect to options, as and when exercised pursuant to the terms hereof.

29. Notification of Disposition. If these Options are designated as Incentive Stock Options, you shall give prompt notice to the Company of any disposition or other transfer of any Shares acquired under the Agreement if such disposition or transfer is made (a) within two years from the Grant Date with respect to such Shares or (b) within one year after the transfer of such Shares to you. Such notice shall specify the date of such disposition or other transfer and the amount realized, in cash, other property, assumption of indebtedness or other consideration, by you in such disposition or other transfer.

30. Termination, Rescission and Recapture (SVPs and Above Only). This Section 30 shall apply to you if and only if your position with the Company or an Affiliate is at the level of “Senior Vice President” or above on the Grant Date.

The Options are intended to align your long-term interests with the long-term interests of the Company. If you engage in certain activities discussed below, either during employment with the Company or after such employment terminates for any reason, the Company may terminate any outstanding, unexercised, unexpired or unpaid Options (“Termination”), rescind any exercise, payment or delivery pursuant to the Options (“Rescission”) or recapture any Shares or any proceeds from your sale of Shares acquired pursuant to the Options (“Recapture”), as more fully described below and to the extent permitted by applicable laws. For purposes of this Section 30, “Competitive Organization or Business” is defined as those corporations, institutions, individuals, or other entities identified by the Company as competitive or working to become competitive in the Company’s most recently filed annual report on Form 10-K.

(iii) while employed by the Company or during a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, without the prior written consent of the Board, you carry on any business or activity (whether directly or indirectly, as a partner, shareholder, principal, agent, director, affiliate, employee or consultant) that is a direct material Competitive Organization or Business (as conducted now or during the term of this Agreement);

The activities described in this Section 30(c) are collectively referred to as “Activities Against the Company’s Interest.”

(d) If the Company determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that: (i) you have violated any of the requirements set forth in Section 30(a) or (b) above or (ii) you have engaged in any Activities Against the Company’s Interest (the date on which such violation or activity first occurred being referred to as the “Trigger Date”), then the Company will, in its sole and absolute discretion, impose a Termination, Rescission and/or Recapture of any or all of the Options, the Shares issued to you upon exercise of the Options or the proceeds you received therefrom, provided, that such Termination, Rescission and/or Recapture shall not apply to the Options, the Shares issued to you upon exercise of Options, to the extent that such Options was exercised earlier than one (1) year prior to the Trigger Date. Within ten days after receiving notice from the Company that Rescission or Recapture is being imposed on any Option, you shall deliver to the Company the Shares acquired pursuant to the Option, or, if you have sold such Common Stock, the gain realized, or payment received as a result of the rescinded exercise, payment, or delivery; provided, that if you return Common Stock that you purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Option (or the gains realized from the sale of such Common Stock), the Company shall promptly refund the exercise price, without earnings, that you paid for the Common Stock. Any payment by you to the Company pursuant to this Section 30(d) shall be made either in cash or by returning to the Company the number of shares of Common Stock that you received in connection with the rescinded exercise, payment, or delivery. It shall not be a basis for Termination, Rescission or Recapture if after your termination of employment, you purchase, as an investment or otherwise, stock or other securities of an organization or business in competition with the Business of the Company, so long as (i) such stock or other securities are listed upon a recognized securities exchange or traded over-the-counter, and (ii) such investment does not represent more than a one percent equity interest in the organization or business.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 30, in exceptional cases, the Company has sole and absolute discretion not to require Termination, Rescission and/or Recapture, and its determination not to require Termination, Rescission and/or Recapture with respect to any particular act by you or the Options shall not in any way reduce or eliminate the Company’s authority to require Termination, Rescission and/or Recapture with respect to any other act by you or other stock options or equity awards.

(g) Nothing in this Section 30 shall be construed to impose obligations on you to refrain from engaging in lawful competition with the Company after the termination of employment. For the avoidance of doubt, you acknowledge that this Section 30(g) shall not limit or supersede any other agreement between you and the Company concerning restrictive covenants.

(h) All administrative and discretionary authority given to the Company under this Section 30 shall be exercised by the CLRC, or an executive officer of the Company as the CLRC may designate from time to time.
