Second Sourcing. i. Notwithstanding Section 2.1(a), AMD may source up to [****] percent ([****]%) of AMD’s and the Remaining Discovery Subsidiaries’ quarterly MPU Product Wafer requirements with [****] at Process Nodes of [****] nm or greater, until [****] establishes a fabrication facility at an [****] outside [****] with Qualified Processes to manufacture the applicable MPU Products for AMD. ii. If at any time while AMD may purchase the applicable MPU Products from [****], FoundryCo cannot deliver in a timely manner Qualified Products produced on Qualified Processes that meet the Specifications in accordance with Binding Forecasts, the Partnership Committee shall promptly address the situation, including conducting a prompt review process and implementing a corrective action plan. If, however, such failure to so deliver such Products is causing AMD to fail to meet its material commitments to its customers, and AMD as a result needs to purchase greater MPU Product volumes from [****] than otherwise set forth above, AMD may increase its purchases at [****] for the affected MPU Products above the [****] percent ([****]%) maximum to meet such customer requirements. AMD may thereafter continue to purchase MPU Products over the [****] percent ([****]%) maximum until such time as FoundryCo demonstrates, as mutually agreed upon, that FoundryCo can meet the relevant Specifications and Yields for such MPU Product in a manner reasonably comparable or better than those of [****], as well as meet the applicable supply commitments set forth in this Agreement or as actually required by AMD. iii. Upon request from AMD and [****], FoundryCo agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide technical assistance to [****] with respect to an agreed upon plan to enable [****]’s efforts to manufacture the applicable MPU Products, including, subject to any applicable third-party sublicensing and disclosure restrictions, granting access and rights to necessary process technology, provided that [****] agrees to use such assistance solely to manufacture applicable MPU Products for AMD and to enter into a confidentiality agreement reasonably satisfactory to FoundryCo. AMD agrees to bear the reasonable expenses approved in advance by AMD and actually incurred by FoundryCo to provide such assistance. iv. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, upon the occurrence of [****] Change of Control Transaction, AMD shall not be permitted thereafter to engage [****] as a second source manufacturer of any MPU Products, subject to a reasonable wind-down period to move the production of the applicable MPU Products to Qualified Processes at the FoundryCo Manufacturing Entities without materially affecting AMD’s supply obligations to its customers. FoundryCo agrees, in good faith, to work with AMD to resolve any issues related to AMD’s ongoing customer relationship as a result of AMD’s inability to engage [****] as a second source manufacturer. Notwithstanding the foregoing and except for the reasonable transition period contemplated in the final sentence of Section 2.1(a), to the extent the relevant MPU Products were being made by [****] or [****] at the time AMD acquired the applicable business pursuant to the final sentence of Section 2.1(a), AMD agrees not to second source any MPU Products from [****] or [****] or any company controlled by [****] or [****].
