The following Terms and Conditions, together with the accompanying Confirmation of Grant of Stock Options (the “Confirmation”), the Stock Option Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) and any country-specific terms and conditions contained in the Appendix (as described in Section 21, below), comprise your agreement (the “Agreement”) with Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (the “Company”) regarding the grant of Stock Options (“Options”) to purchase the number of shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Shares”), as set forth in the Grant Notice, at the exercise price per share set forth in the Grant Notice (the “Exercise Price”), awarded under the Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Capitalized terms not specifically defined herein shall have the same meaning assigned to them in the Plan.

1. Vesting of Options. The Options will vest on the date(s) shown on the Grant Notice provided that you continue to be an active Service Provider through each vesting date.

2. Exercise of Options.

(a) Right to Exercise. This Option is exercisable during its term in accordance with the vesting schedule set out in the Grant Notice and the applicable provisions of the Plan and the Agreement.

(b) Method of Exercise. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, the Option shall be 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, in form specified by the Administrator or its designee, which notice shall specify the number of Shares to be purchased and the aggregate Exercise Price for such shares, together with payment in full of such aggregate Exercise Price and all applicable Tax-Related Items (as defined in Section 7). Payment shall 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 Appendix. The Options may not be exercised unless you agree to be bound by such documents as the Administrator may reasonably require, including all Award Documentation.

The Administrator may deny any exercise 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 shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, unless provided otherwise in the Appendix:

(a) cash; or

(b) check; or

(c) consideration received by the Company under a cashless exercise program implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan.

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. The terms of the Plan and the Agreement shall be binding upon your executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns.

5. Term of Option. This Option may be exercised only within the term set out in the Grant Notice, and may be exercised during such term only in accordance with the Plan and the terms of the Agreement.

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, and you have not been serving as a vice president or AMD officer for at least ninety (90) days (or not at all), vested Options may be exercised at any time before the expiration date set forth in the Grant Notice or the expiration of three months after the 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 and in the Grant Notice. If you have been serving as a vice-president or AMD officer for at least ninety (90) days and 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 expiration date set forth in the Grant Notice or the expiration of twelve (12) months after the 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 and in the Grant Notice.

You may have a longer period to exercise Options under the circumstances described below:

 

  (i) If you have not been a vice president or AMD officer for at least ninety (90) days (or not at all) and are age fifty (50) or more when your status as an active Service Provider terminates for any reason, other than death, Disability or Misconduct, and you have at least fifteen (15) years of service but less than twenty (20) years of service, you will have fifteen (15) months to exercise vested Options after termination as a Service Provider.

 

  (ii) If you have not been a vice president or AMD officer for at least ninety (90) days (or not at all) and are age fifty (50) or more when your status as an active Service Provider terminates for any reason, other than death, Disability or Misconduct, and you have twenty (20) years or more of service, you will have twenty-seven (27) months to exercise vested Options after termination as a Service Provider.

 

  (iii) If you have been a vice president or AMD officer for at least ninety (90) days and are age fifty (50) or more when your status as an active Service Provider terminates for any reason, other than death, Disability or Misconduct, and you have at least fifteen (15) years of service but less than twenty (20) years of service, you will have twenty-four (24) months to exercise vested Options after termination as a Service Provider.

 

  (iv) If you are have been a vice president or AMD officer for at least ninety (90) days and are age fifty (50) or more when your status as an active Service Provider terminates for any reason, other than death, Disability or Misconduct, and you have twenty (20) years or more of service, you will have thirty-six (36) months to exercise vested Options after termination as a Service Provider.

If you terminate your status as an active Service Provider to work for a competitor of the Company, the post-termination exercise period extensions described in Sections 6(a)(i) – (iv) will not apply, and you will have three months to exercise your vested Options, unless you have been serving as a vice-president or AMD officer for at least ninety (90) days, in which case you will have twelve (12) months to exercise your vested Options. In no case shall the post-termination exercise periods extend beyond the term limit for the Options as set out in the Grant Notice.

(b) Termination Due to Death or Disability. If your status as an active Service Provider terminates due to your death or Disability (as defined in the Plan) and you were a Service Provider for at least fifteen (15) years, your Options will vest as follows:

 

  (i) if you are on an unapproved leave of absence, any Options that would have vested in the calendar year in which your leave began are immediately vested; or

 

  (ii) if you are not on an unapproved leave of absence (i.e., you are on an approved leave of absence or you are serving as an active Service Provider), any Options that would have vested in the calendar year of your death or Disability are immediately vested.

You (or your heirs, as applicable) shall generally have twelve (12) months from the date your status as a Service Provider is terminated due to death or Disability to exercise any vested Options. However, if you are aged fifty (50) or more and have at least fifteen (15) years of service but less than twenty (20) years of service when your status as a Service Provider is terminated due to death or Disability, you (or your heirs) shall have twenty-four (24) months from the date your status as a Service Provider is terminated to exercise any vested Options (provided that you do not go to work for a competitor of the Company, in which case you (or your heirs) shall have twelve (12) months from the date your status as a Service Provider is terminated to exercise any vested Options). If you are aged fifty (50) or more and have at least twenty (20) years of service when your status as a Service Provider is terminated due to death or Disability, you (or your heirs) shall have thirty-six (36) months from the date your status


as a Service Provider is terminated to exercise any vested Options (provided that you do not go to work for a competitor of the Company, in which case you (or your heirs) shall have twelve (12) months from the date your status as a Service Provider is terminated to exercise any vested Options). In no case shall the post-termination exercise periods extend beyond the term limit for the Options as set out in the Grant Notice.

(c) Termination due to Misconduct. If your status as an active Service Provider is terminated due to Misconduct (as defined in the Plan), the Company reserves the right to cancel all of your Options, whether vested or unvested.

7. Responsibility for Taxes. Regardless of any action the Company or your employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll 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 have become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the date of grant and the date of any relevant taxable event, 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. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following:

 

  (a) withholding from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or the Employer; or

 

  (b) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon exercise of the Options either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization); or

 

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

 

  (d) requires payment in cash, check or wire transfer of the Tax-Related Items at the time of exercise.

To avoid negative accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates. 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.

Finally, you shall 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. This Agreement is further subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan. Only certain provisions of the Plan are described in these Terms and Conditions. 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) 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.

(c) Employment Relationship. Nothing in the Agreement shall confer on you any right to continue in the employ of your Employer, nor shall interfere with or restrict rights of your Employer, which are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge you at any time, with or without cause provided in compliance with applicable local laws.

(d) Change of Control. If your employment is terminated by your Employer 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 shall become fully vested upon the date of termination.

(e) 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 by the deadline for such declination. Your declination is non-revocable, and you will not receive any other benefits or compensation as replacement for the declined Options.

(f) Recovery in the Event of a Financial Restatement. In the event the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the material noncompliance of the Company with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, the Administrator will review all equity-based compensation (including the Option) awarded to employees at the Senior Vice President level and above. If the Administrator (in its sole discretion) determines that any such Company employee was directly involved with fraud, misconduct and/or gross negligence that contributed to or resulted in such accounting restatement, the Administrator may, to the extent permitted by governing law and as appropriate under the circumstances, recover for the benefit of the Company all or a portion of the equity-based compensation awarded to you, including (without limitation) by cancelation, forfeiture, repayment and/or disgorgement of profits realized from the sale of securities of the Company; provided, however, the Administrator will have the authority to recover any equity-based compensation awarded more than 18 months prior to the date of the first public issuance or filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (whichever first occurs) of the financial document embodying such financial reporting requirement. In determining whether to seek recovery, the Administrator shall take into account such considerations as it deems appropriate, including governing law and whether the assertion of a recovery claim may prejudice the interests of the Company in any related proceeding or investigation.

9. Nature of Grant. In accepting the grant, you acknowledge 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;

(b) the grant of the Options is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Options, or benefits in lieu of Options, even if Options have been granted repeatedly in the past;

(c) all decisions with respect to future Option grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;

(d) your participation in the Plan shall not create a right to further employment with the Employer and shall not interfere with the ability of the Employer to terminate your employment relationship at any time;

(e) you are voluntarily participating in the Plan;

(f) the Options and the Shares subject to the Options are an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company or the Employer, and which is outside the scope of your employment contract, if any;

(g) the Options and the Shares subject to the Options are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;

(h) the Options and the Shares subject to the Options are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company, the Employer, its Parent, or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company;


(i) the Option grant and your participation in the Plan will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company, its Parent or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company;

(j) the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty;

(k) if the underlying Shares do not increase in value, the Options will have no value;

(l) if you exercise the Options and obtain Shares, the value of the Shares acquired upon exercise may increase or decrease in value, even below the Exercise Price;

(m) in consideration of the grant of the Options, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Options resulting from termination of your employment with the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of applicable local laws) and you irrevocably release the Company and the Employer from any such claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, you shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived your entitlement to pursue such claim;

(n) in the event of termination of your employment (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), your right to vest in the Options under the Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of the date that you are no longer actively employed and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under applicable local laws (e.g., active employment would not include a period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to applicable local laws); the Administrator shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when you are no longer actively employed for purposes of your Options; and

(o) the Options and the benefits under the Plan, if any, will not automatically transfer to another company in the case of a merger, take-over or transfer of liability.

10. No Advice Regarding Grant.

SPAIN

Terms and Conditions

No Entitlement for Claims or Compensation. The following provisions supplement Sections 8 and 9 of the Terms and Conditions:

By accepting the Options, you consent to participation in the Plan and acknowledge that you have received a copy of the Plan document.

You understand that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and in its sole discretion decided to grant Options under the Plan to individuals who may be Consultants, Directors and Employees throughout the world. The decision is limited and entered into based upon the express assumption and condition that any Options will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate, including the Employer, on an ongoing basis, other than as expressly set forth in the Agreement. Consequently, you understand that the Options are granted on the assumption and condition that the Options shall not become part of any employment contract (whether with the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate, including the Employer) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purpose (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. Furthermore, you understand and freely accept that there is no guarantee that any benefit whatsoever shall arise from the grant of Options, which is gratuitous and discretionary, since the future value of the Options and the underlying Shares is unknown and unpredictable. You also understand that this grant of Options would not be made but for the assumptions and conditions set forth hereinabove; thus, you understand, acknowledge and freely accept that, should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or any of the conditions not be met for any reason, the Options and any right to the underlying Shares shall be null and void.

UNITED KINGDOM

Terms & Conditions

Tax Acknowledgment. The following provisions supplement Section 7: Responsibility for Taxes in the Terms and Conditions:

You shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to account to HMRC with respect to the event giving rise to the Tax-Related Items (the “Taxable Event”) that cannot be satisfied by the means described in Section 7 of the Terms and Conditions. If payment or withholding is not made within ninety (90) days of the Taxable Event or such other period as required under U.K. law (the “Due Date”), you agree that the amount of any uncollected Tax-Related Items shall (assuming you are not a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended)) constitute a loan owed by you to the Employer, effective on the Due Date. You agree that the loan will bear interest at the then-current HMRC Official Rate and it will be immediately due and repayable, and the Company and/or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in Section 7 of the Terms and Conditions. If you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this section, the Company may refuse to deliver the Shares acquired under the Plan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you are a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), you will not be eligible for such a loan to cover the Tax-Related Items. In the event that you are a director or executive officer and the Tax-Related Items are not collected from or paid by you by the Due Date, the amount of any uncollected Tax-Related Items will constitute a benefit to you on which additional income tax and National Insurance contributions will be payable. You will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax and National Insurance contributions due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime.
