AMD and Supplier agree as follows:

1. Scope of Agreement

(a) Scope. This Agreement shall enable all divisions, locations, affiliates and subsidiaries of AMD to purchase from all divisions, locations, affiliates and subsidiaries of Supplier, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, any equipment and related spare parts, consumables, services, upgrades and/or software during the applicable warranty period, and any other items, all of which must be identified on one or more Addenda (as defined below) agreed to by the parties in writing (“Products”). This Agreement will also govern Supplier’s performance of warranty-related services and any other services related to maintenance of and/or upgrades to the Products as mutually agreed by the parties (“Services”). In the event Supplier accepts an order from a subsidiary or affiliate of AMD, Supplier shall look solely to such subsidiary or affiliate for the fulfillment of any and all obligations of payment under that order. From time to time during the term of this Agreement the parties may enter into one or more Statements of Work for maintenance services or Commercial Acceptance Agreements (each an “Addendum”). Each such Addendum shall be attached to this Agreement as an Addendum and is hereby expressly incorporated herein. The first such Addendum titled the Commercial Acceptance Agreement for Delta Summit Handlers and Thermal Characterization Workstations is attached to this Agreement as of the Effective Date. Unless otherwise expressly agreed in the applicable Addendum, the terms of this Agreement shall control over the terms in the Addendum to the extent they may be inconsistent or in conflict.

(b) Service Agreement. Notwithstanding the above, if AMD and Supplier have executed a separate services agreement governing post-warranty maintenance services, such services agreement shall control over the terms of this Agreement for such services.

-4-

(*** Confidential material redacted and submitted separately to the Commission)

4

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED—REDACTED COPY

delay or failure is caused by an act of God or other causes beyond its control and without its fault or negligence (each a “Force Majeure Event”). Delays by Supplier’s vendors in manufacture or delivery of materials not caused by a Force Majeure Event, or shortages of labor or materials resulting from general market conditions (including price increases) shall not relieve a party from its delay or failure in performance of any part of this Agreement. A party who is delayed or fails to perform as a result of a Force Majeure Event (“Affected Party”) shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (including without limitation incurring any reasonable expenditure of funds and rescheduling labor and resources) to mitigate and minimize any resulting delay in the performance of the suspended obligation. The Affected Party shall, as soon as possible but in no event later than twenty-four (24) hours of learning of a Force Majeure Event, provide written notice to the other party, stating the nature and cause of the event, the anticipated length of the delay, the measures proposed or taken to avoid or minimize the effect of the delay, and the timetable for implementation of such measures. If the Supplier is the Affected Party, AMD may terminate this Agreement or any part hereof if the delay or failure in performance continues beyond twenty (20) days.

6. Changes

(a) Supplier Changes. No process changes, design changes, or process step discontinuances affecting the electrical performance (whether specified or not), the mechanical form or fit, the environmental compatibility or chemical characteristics, or the life reliability of Product (collectively “Changes”) shall be made or incorporated in Product without the prior written approval of AMD. Supplier shall give AMD notice of any proposed Change and provide evaluation samples and other appropriate information as specified by AMD. The notice must be received by AMD at least ninety (90) days, plus the agreed upon lead time, prior to the first proposed shipment of any Product affected by the Change. Regardless of whether AMD approves a proposed Change, the agreed upon lead time shall not be changed except as agreed upon in writing by AMD.

(b) AMD Changes. Supplier shall accommodate all changes by AMD to AMD-supplied drawings, design, or specification provided that AMD gives written notice of such change at least thirty (30) days prior to the shipment date. Supplier shall make a good faith effort to accommodate all such changes proposed by AMD, regardless of when such request is made by AMD. If any such change reasonably and directly affects the prices, costs or delivery schedules of Product, an equitable adjustment shall be made provided that Supplier makes a written claim for an adjustment within fifteen (15) days from the date AMD gives notice to Supplier of the change, and AMD agrees in writing to the adjustment.

7. Testing, Installation, & Acceptance

(a) Pre-shipment Testing. AMD may perform a pre-shipment evaluation and examination of the Products at the Supplier’s manufacturing facility at no charge to AMD. Supplier shall make the Products available for pre-shipment evaluation at least *** (***) days prior to the scheduled shipment date, and will provide as much advanced notice to AMD as feasible specifying the date on which the Products will be available for pre-shipment evaluation. Failure to conduct a pre-shipment evaluation shall not constitute acceptance of the Products. AMD participation in programs designed to accelerate the Product ship date does not waive AMD’s rights under this section. AMD shall be entitled to have up to *** (***) representatives present at the pre-shipment evaluation. AMD shall have *** (***) days to analyze test results and determine whether the Products passed the pre-shipment tests, such determination to be made by AMD in its sole but reasonable discretion.

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED—REDACTED COPY

shipment of Product. The second set is to be provided to AMD concurrent with Product installation. Supplier will promptly supply AMD with all changes, notes and upgrades made to the documentation as they occur. Supplier will provide documentation of equipment error codes for purposes of troubleshooting, if requested by AMD. Accurate utility connection documentation must be provided to AMD. The utility connection of the Product will be entirely dependent upon the accuracy of the documentation provided by Supplier. Any labor and/or material costs related to the rework caused by inaccurate utility connection documentation from Supplier will be charged to the Supplier and deducted from final payment.

(c) Installation. Supplier shall install all Products sold hereunder, and shall make such Products operational pursuant to the acceptance criteria stated in the applicable Addendum. Supplier shall be onsite during normal business hours and shall make available via telephone 24 hour/day, 7 days/week appropriate technical support to assist in planning, executing, and supervising Product installation until final acceptance is completed. Support personnel shall meet a defined level of expertise as referenced in the applicable Addendum. Unless otherwise specified in an applicable Addendum, Supplier must at least four (4) months prior to shipment provide to AMD all information and documentation that is necessary or required for proper site preparation for installation.

(d) Final Acceptance. AMD personnel may witness any test necessary to demonstrate the performance of Products. Upon request, Supplier shall provide any and all equipment performance test data. AMD shall have the right to make any reasonable final inspection or tests. If the Products fail to meet the required acceptance criteria, AMD will provide to Supplier a written notice stating the specific problems, in which case the time for completion of the acceptance testing shall be extended. Upon receipt of such written notice, Supplier shall promptly evaluate the issues raised by AMD and respond to AMD with a proposed corrective action plan to repair or replace the Products and the time period during which Supplier shall attempt to repair or replace the Products. If after the expiration of such period the Products or replacement Products still fail to meet the required acceptance criteria, AMD may, at its sole discretion, cancel in writing the applicable Purchase Order and/or Addendum in whole or in part without obligation or liability, and Supplier shall promptly refund to AMD all amounts paid by AMD to Supplier for such rejected Product, and at its own expense remove such Product from AMD’s facility and cancel all outstanding invoices in relation to Product. In the event of Supplier’s failure to meet any extension of the acceptance testing completion date, AMD will be entitled to either further extend or cancel the Purchase Order and/or Addendum as provided above. Upon AMD’s verification that the Product meets all applicable specifications and criteria, AMD will promptly issue a formal written acceptance statement provided by AMD, with email copy provided to Supplier’s AMD account manager within two (2) business days. Final acceptance shall not occur until AMD delivers such document to Supplier; provided, however, that if AMD does not deliver such document to Supplier (a) within *** (***) days after the date any Product subject to the first Purchase Order under an Addendum is made available to AMD for inspection, or (b) within *** (***) days after the date any Product subject to any subsequent Purchase Order under that Addendum is made available to AMD for inspection, then such Product shall be deemed accepted by AMD.

(e) Training. Supplier shall provide training for AMD’s personnel in Product operation and maintenance procedures for each Product system purchased hereunder, presented on-site at AMD’s facility if requested. The scope of such training shall be defined in the applicable Addendum, but will include diagnostic procedures, process verification, preventive maintenance, and operational understanding of the Product.

Supplier and AMD may mutually agree, in an amendment to this Addendum or some other writing executed by authorized representatives of the parties, on certain buffer capacity to maintained by Supplier for the benefit of AMD, including without limitation any fees due Supplier for maintaining such buffer capacity.
