SORTING AND MASK SERVICES Clause Samples

The "Sorting and Mask Services" clause defines the responsibilities and procedures for organizing, categorizing, and anonymizing data or materials as part of a contractual relationship. Typically, this clause outlines how one party will sort items—such as documents, products, or data—and apply masking techniques to protect sensitive information, for example by redacting personal identifiers or confidential details. Its core practical function is to ensure that data is handled securely and efficiently, reducing the risk of unauthorized disclosure and supporting compliance with privacy or confidentiality requirements.

SORTING AND MASK SERVICES.

Such equipment shall be installed and qualified in on a timely basis so as to enable FoundryCo to meet its Product delivery requirements. To the extent new equipment or upgrades to existing equipment are required for FoundryCo to perform sorting services, the costs associated with such equipment or upgrades (including but not limited to installation and qualification expenses incurred by FoundryCo, not to exceed USD [****] per system) shall be paid by AMD. If AMD has not consigned test equipment to perform sort or cooperated with FoundryCo with regard to required upgrades on a timely basis (meaning such time as would be sufficient to sort the Production Wafers in the amount set forth in this Agreement by quarter), then each quarter FoundryCo may ship to AMD the 2014 MPU and GPU Production Wafers in the amounts provided for in the Agreement and AMD shall accept such Wafers whether or not they have been sorted.

Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions. (b) To facilitate GF’s delivery, at its option, of sorted or unsorted Wafers at a third party location during the 2014 Period, the Parties agree that they will enter into a written arrangement similar to the arrangement outlined in the letter from AMD to FoundryCo dated [****] to provide for the delivery of wafers in a controlled fashion. The parties will use their best efforts to enter into such arrangement on or before [****], 2014. (c) AMD agrees that it shall procure mask services for 2014 MPU and GPU Production Wafers pro...
