GLOBALFOUNDRIES | GLOBALFOUNDRIES In March 2009, the Company and GLOBALFOUNDRIES Inc. (GF) entered into a Wafer Supply Agreement (the WSA) under which, among other terms, the Company would purchase wafers from GF. The WSA, which has been amended from time to time, governs the terms by which the Company purchases products manufactured by GF. On January 28, 2019, the Company entered into a seventh amendment (the Seventh Amendment) to the WSA with GF, which modifies certain purchase commitments, pricing and other terms of the WSA applicable to wafer purchases at the 12 nm technology node and above by the Company for the period commencing on January 1, 2019 and continuing through March 1, 2024. The Seventh Amendment also provides the Company with full flexibility to contract with any wafer foundry with respect to all products manufactured using 7nm and smaller technology nodes without any one-time payments or royalties by the Company to GF. Further, the Company and GF agreed to modify the annual wafer purchase targets previously agreed to for years 2019 and 2020. The parties also agreed to an annual wafer purchase target for 2021 and agreed to pricing for wafers purchased for years 2019 through 2021. If the Company does not meet the annual wafer purchase target for any of these years, the Company will be required to pay to GF a portion of the difference between the Company’s actual wafer purchases and the wafer purchase target for that year. The Company expects that its future purchases from GF will be material under the WSA, which is in place until March 1, 2024. The Company also agreed to continue to make quarterly payments to GF based on the volume of certain wafers purchased from another wafer foundry.
On August 30, 2016, in consideration for the limited waiver and rights under the WSA Sixth Amendment, the Company entered into a warrant agreement (the Warrant Agreement) with West Coast Hitech L.P. (WCH), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mubadala Development Company PJSC (Mubadala). Under the Warrant Agreement, WCH and its permitted assigns were entitled to purchase 75 million shares of the Company’s common stock (the Warrant Shares) at a purchase price of $5.98 per share. On February 13, 2019, WCH exercised its warrant to purchase 75 million shares of the Company’s common stock at a purchase price of $5.98 per share for a total amount of $449 million.
GF was a related party of the Company because Mubadala and Mubadala Technology Investments LLC (Mubadala Tech, a party to the WSA) are affiliated with WCH, and a member of the Company's Board of Directors (the Board) was associated with Mubadala. GF, WCH and Mubadala Tech are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Mubadala. Effective May 15, 2019, the member of the Board associated with Mubadala retired from the Board, and as a result, GF was no longer considered a related party of the Company. All prior period related party classifications on the financial statements for GF have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
The Company’s purchases from GF related to wafer manufacturing, research and development activities and other during the three and six months ended June 29, 2019, through May 15, 2019 were $153 million and $531 million, respectively. The Company’s total purchases from GF related to wafer manufacturing, research and development activities and other during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were $383 million and $781 million, respectively. Included in the total purchases during the three and six months ended June 29, 2019 and June 30, 2018 were amounts related to the volume of certain wafers purchased from another wafer foundry, as agreed by the Company and GF.
