Attention: Chief Financial Officer

Re: IBM-Chartered Joint Development Bundle Agreement(s) — [•Q 20XX] Actuals

Please be advised that IBM’s actual gross development spending for [•Q 20XX] was A% of our full year spending. Actual category spending was as follows: Fab operations X%, Manpower Y% and other costs Z%.

The proportion of IBM’s development spending charge to Chartered versus the total development spending projections for [20XX, 20XX, 20XX and 1H20XX] are projected to remain relatively constant year to year.

Likewise the portion of IBM’s development spending charged to Chartered versus the total development spending in a quarter should be consistent with the IBM spend rate. I conclude that B% of the $XXM or $XXM was spent in [•Q 20XX]. Expenses incurred and charged to Chartered out of the gross development spending for 20XX is $XXM.

Yours faithfully
