ARTICLE II

PROCEDURES PRIOR TO EACH FUNDING NOTICE

SECTION 2.01. Approval of Annual Business Plan.

(a) On or prior to mid-November of each year (which date shall be prior to the end of the seventh fiscal week of the fourth fiscal quarter of such year of FoundryCo), or the next succeeding Business Day if such date is not a Business Day, the Management Team shall prepare and present to the Board for its approval a proposed Annual Business Plan for the subsequent Fiscal Year. The Annual Business Plan for the Fiscal Year ending on December 26, 2009 (the “First Annual Business Plan”) is attached hereto as Appendix B. Each proposed Annual Business Plan shall address, among other things, each of the line items set forth in the First Annual Business Plan.

(b) In connection with the preparation of each proposed Annual Business Plan, the Management Team shall retain such advisors and take such actions as will enable it to estimate whether and to what extent third-party debt financing (“Debt Financing”) would then be available to FoundryCo, with the aim that such Debt Financing would be at least sufficient to meet the projected Debt Funding Level for such Fiscal Year as set forth in the Five-Year Capital Plan. Each proposed Annual Business Plan shall include either a proposed commitment letter for such Debt Financing or a summary of indicative terms from at least two financial institutions (or, if in the good faith determination of the Management Team, no reputable and established financial institutions would provide such Debt Financing on commercially reasonable terms, a statement to such effect). Each of Discovery and Oyster shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist FoundryCo in obtaining any Debt Financing, and either Shareholder shall have the option, but not the obligation, to provide guarantees or other similar means of financial support in connection with any Debt Financing.

(c) Such proposed Annual Business Plan shall specifically include an estimate, by fiscal quarter, of sources and uses of funds for FoundryCo for such subsequent Fiscal Year, at all times after giving effect to the cash reserve requirement in Section 2.02. After due consideration of such proposed Annual Business Plan, the Board shall vote on whether to approve (with such changes as the Board shall determine) such proposed Annual Business Plan in accordance with the approvals required by the Shareholders’ Agreement. If the Board approves such proposed Annual Business Plan in accordance with the approvals required by the Shareholders’ Agreement, such proposed Annual Business Plan shall immediately become effective as the Annual Business Plan for the subsequent Fiscal Year.

(d) If the Board has not approved such proposed Annual Business Plan on or prior to the earlier of (i) the first Business Day after November 29 and (ii) the last day of the ninth (9^th) fiscal week of the fourth fiscal quarter

of Foundry Co, then within three (3) Business Days thereafter FoundryCo shall deliver a notice that shall detail the specific items that are the subject of such non-approval to the chief executive officer of each Shareholder. During the period following receipt of such notice through December 23 of that Fiscal Year, the chief executive officers, acting on behalf of their respective Shareholder, shall seek in good faith and shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to hold at least three (3) additional meetings with the goal of approving the proposed Annual Business Plan (with such changes as the chief executive officers shall determine). If (i) the Board approves such proposed Annual Business Plan (with such changes as the chief executive officers, acting on behalf of their respective Shareholder, shall determine) in accordance with the approvals required by the Shareholders’ Agreement, or (ii) a Shareholder unilaterally approves such proposed Annual Business Plan (with such changes as such Shareholder shall determine) pursuant to the rights granted under Section 6.01(b) of the Shareholders’ Agreement, such proposed Annual Business Plan shall immediately become effective as the Annual Business Plan for such subsequent Fiscal Year.

(e) If the Shareholders, acting through their respective chief executive officers, have not approved such proposed Annual Business Plan on or prior to December 23^rd of the Fiscal Year in which the proposed Annual Business Plan was submitted to the Board and the chief executive officers, a “Business Plan Deadlock” shall be deemed to have occurred and the Parties shall follow the deadlock resolution procedures set forth in Article VIII.

SECTION 2.02. Cash Reserve. The Parties agree that at all times during the term of this Agreement, the FoundryCo Group shall maintain Cash and Cash Equivalents in an amount equal to at least $1.0 billion, provided, however, that this requirement shall no longer apply upon the earlier of (i) FoundryCo entering into a Transition Period in accordance with Article VIII hereunder and (ii) the end of Phase II.

ARTICLE III

FUNDING PROCEDURES

SECTION 3.01. Funding Notices.

(a) From time to time during the term of this Agreement, FoundryCo may provide a notice requesting equity funding (the “First Funding Notice”) to both Shareholders in substantially the form attached hereto as Appendix D. The First Funding Notice shall be provided at least thirty (30) Business Days prior to the date of any contemplated equity funding hereunder (unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Shareholders) (each, a “Funding Date”).

(b) On any Funding Date, the aggregate number of Securities to be issued shall consist of twenty percent (20%) in the form of Class A Preferred Shares and eighty percent (80%) in the form of Class B Preferred Shares, provided, however, that, prior to the Reconciliation Event, to the extent the issuance of any such Securities to Oyster would cause FoundryCo to fail to constitute a “subsidiary” of Discovery, as such term is defined in the Intel Patent Cross License Agreement, FoundryCo shall instead issue to Oyster (i) a Class A Convertible Note in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate purchase price for the Class A Preferred Shares that would have been issued to Oyster but for this proviso, and (ii) a Class B Convertible Note in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate purchase price for the Class B Preferred Shares that would have been issued to Oyster but for this proviso.

(c) Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article VI, unless otherwise agreed by the Shareholders, the aggregate amount of equity funding to be provided by the Shareholders in any Fiscal Year pursuant to this Agreement shall be as follows:

(i) during Phase I, such amount shall be equal to the Original Funding Level for such Fiscal Year as set forth in the Five-Year Capital Plan, provided, however, that such Original Funding Level shall be reduced to the extent any Debt Financing obtained by FoundryCo during such Fiscal Year exceeds the projected Debt

Funding Level for such Fiscal Year, and provided further, that, subject to Section 3.01(c)(iv), to the extent such Debt Financing is less than any such projected Debt Funding Level, the Original Funding Level shall not be increased to make up any such difference;

(ii) during Phase II, such amount shall be equal to the Original Funding Level for such Fiscal Year as set forth in the Five-Year Capital Plan, provided, however, that such amount may be reduced (A) to the Minimum Funding Level pursuant to Section 6.02(b), (B) to a level between the Original Funding Level and the Minimum Funding Level pursuant to Section 8.02(a) and (C) to the Minimum Funding Level pursuant to Section 8.04(c). Such amount shall also be reduced to the extent any Debt Financing obtained by FoundryCo during such Fiscal Year exceeds the projected Debt Funding Level for such Fiscal Year, provided, however, that, subject to Section 3.01(c)(iv), to the extent such Debt Financing is less than any such projected Debt Funding Level, such amount shall not be increased to make up any such difference. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Minimum Funding Level applies, then (x) the projected Debt Funding Level shall be reduced to the Minimum Debt Funding Level, and (y) if the level of Debt Financing is less than any such projected Minimum Debt Funding Level, the minimum level of equity funding shall be equal to the Minimum Funding Level;

(iii) during Phase III, such amount shall be equal to the equity funding level set forth in the approved Annual Business Plan for such Fiscal Year, provided, however, that such amount may be reduced (A) to a level between the Phase III Alternate Funding Level and the Transition Funding Level pursuant to Section 8.03(a) and (B) to the Transition Funding Level pursuant to Section 8.04(c). Such amount shall also be reduced to the extent any Debt Financing obtained by FoundryCo during such Fiscal Year exceeds the projected Debt Funding Level for such Fiscal Year, provided, however, that to the extent such Debt Financing is less than any such projected Debt Funding Level, such amount shall not be increased to make up any such difference. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Transition Funding Level applies and such Debt Financing is less than any such projected Debt Funding Level, the minimum level of equity funding shall be equal to the Transition Funding Level; and

(iv) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 3.01(c)(i) or (ii), if (A) any equity funding has been reduced during Phase I or Phase II as a result of Debt Financing obtained during any Fiscal Year exceeding the projected Debt Funding Level for such Fiscal Year (the cumulative amount of such equity funding reduction being referred to as the “Rollover Amount”) and (B) during any subsequent Fiscal Year during Phase I or Phase II the amount of any Debt Financing is less than the projected Debt Funding Level for such Fiscal Year, then the amount of equity funding for such Fiscal Year or for any subsequent Fiscal Year during Phase I or Phase II may be increased up to the Rollover Amount, provided, however, that in no event shall the aggregate amount of equity funding to be provided by Oyster during Phase I and Phase II exceed the aggregate amount of equity funding for Phase I and Phase II as set forth in the Five-Year Capital Plan.

(d) Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article VI, Oyster shall be obligated to purchase its Pro Rata Portion of the Securities offered pursuant to any First Funding Notice. Discovery shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase its Pro Rata Portion of the Securities offered pursuant to any First Funding Notice. Within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of a First Funding Notice, Discovery shall advise FoundryCo and Oyster, in writing, whether it elects to purchase any of the Securities offered. To the extent that Discovery elects not to purchase all of its Pro Rata Portion of any Securities offered pursuant to any First Funding Notice, Oyster shall be obligated, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article VI, to purchase all of such unpurchased Securities. Oyster may also elect at any time to purchase additional Securities in excess of those offered pursuant to any First Funding Notice.

(e) On or prior to the tenth (10^th) Business Day prior to a Funding Date, FoundryCo shall provide a notice (the “Second Funding Notice”) to each Shareholder in substantially the form attached hereto as Appendix E which shall detail each Shareholder’s allocable portion of the Securities offered.

SECTION 3.02. Purchase and Sale of Securities.

(a) Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, on each Funding Date, FoundryCo shall issue to each purchasing Shareholder and such Shareholder shall purchase, accept and acquire from FoundryCo the allocated Securities as set forth in the Second Funding Notice for such Funding Date.

(b) On each Funding Date, the purchase price per Class A Preferred Share shall be the same as the purchase price per Class B Preferred Share and shall be determined by dividing (i) the Net Tangible Assets of the FoundryCo Group (derived from the most recent Fiscal Year-end audited consolidated balance sheet of FoundryCo that has been approved by the Board and calculated in accordance with the Statement of Principles set forth in Appendix F attached hereto) by (ii) the Number of Outstanding Preferred Shares (as of the date of the balance sheet referred to in clause (i) above), and multiplying such quotient by 1.1.

(c) On each Funding Date, the aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes to be issued shall be determined in accordance with Section 3.01(b).

SECTION 3.03. Closing Deliveries by FoundryCo. On each Funding Date, FoundryCo shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Oyster and Discovery, if applicable, or their respective designated custodians:

(a) if requested, physical certificates evidencing the number of Class A Preferred Shares to be purchased by such Shareholder on such Funding Date, rounded to the nearest whole share;

(b) if requested, physical certificates evidencing the number of Class B Preferred Shares, to be purchased by such Shareholder on such Funding Date, rounded to the nearest whole share;

(c) if applicable, a Class A Convertible Note to Oyster for an aggregate principal amount in accordance with Section 3.01(b);

(d) if applicable, a Class B Convertible Note to Oyster for an aggregate principal amount in accordance with Section 3.01(b);

(e) an updated Register of Members reflecting the issuance of the Securities on such Funding Date;

(f) a certificate, dated as of such Funding Date, executed by an authorized officer of FoundryCo certifying as to the matters set forth in Article IV, Section 6.01 and Section 6.02(a), 6.02(b) or 6.02(c), as applicable; and

(g) receipt(s) for the aggregate consideration paid by such Shareholder for the Securities issued to it on such Funding Date.

SECTION 3.04. Closing Deliveries by the Shareholders. On each Funding Date, to the extent a Shareholder is purchasing Securities, such Shareholder shall deliver to FoundryCo:

(a)(i) a wire transfer of the aggregate consideration for the Securities to be issued to such Shareholder on such Funding Date, payable in United States dollars and in immediately available funds to the bank account designated by FoundryCo in the First Funding Notice, or (ii) if the Board so agrees in advance, the aggregate consideration for such Securities payable in Cash and Cash Equivalents acceptable to the Board; and

(b) a certificate, dated as of such Funding Date, executed by an authorized officer of such Shareholder certifying as to the matters set forth in Article V.

If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any Law or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect for so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party hereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

SECTION 9.04. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

SECTION 9.05. Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise without the express written consent of each Party hereto (which consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of such Party) and any such assignment or attempted assignment without such consent shall be void, provided, however, that Oyster may assign all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement without any consent to any Permitted Transferee.

SECTION 9.06. Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except (a) by an instrument in writing signed by, or on behalf of, each Party hereto or (b) by a waiver in accordance with Section 9.07.

SECTION 9.07. Waiver.

Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the Party to be bound thereby. Any waiver of any term or condition shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or a subsequent waiver of the same term or condition, or a waiver of any other term or condition of this Agreement. The failure of any Party hereto to assert any of its rights hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any of such rights. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

SECTION 9.08. Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person, including any union or any employee or former employee of any Party, any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever, including any rights of employment for any specified period, under or by reason of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.10. Governing Law; Arbitration.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed in that State, without regard to principles of the conflict of laws.

(b) Any dispute arising out of, or in connection with this Agreement or any transactions contemplated hereby, including any question regarding the existence, validity, interpretation, breach or termination of this Agreement (a “Dispute”), shall be referred, upon written notice (a “Dispute Notice”) given by one Party to the other(s), to a senior executive from each Party. The senior executives shall seek to resolve the Dispute on an amicable basis within thirty (30) days of the Dispute Notice being received.

(c) Any Dispute not resolved within thirty (30) days of the Dispute Notice being received shall be referred to, and shall be finally and exclusively resolved by, arbitration under the Rules of the London Court of International Arbitration (the “LCIA Rules”) then in effect, as amended by this Section 9.10, which LCIA Rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Section 9.10. The seat, or legal place, of the arbitration shall be London, England. The language of the arbitration shall be English. The number of arbitrators shall be three. Each Party shall nominate one arbitrator and the two arbitrators nominated by the Parties shall, within thirty (30) days of the appointment of the second arbitrator, agree upon and nominate a third arbitrator who shall act as Chairman of the Tribunal (as such terms are defined in the LCIA Rules). If no agreement is reached within thirty (30) days, the LCIA Court (as such term is defined in the LCIA Rules) shall appoint a third arbitrator to act as Chairman of the Tribunal. The Chairman of the arbitration panel should not be a citizen or a resident of the country of an arbitrator nominated by, or appointed on behalf of, a Party nor should the Chairman be a citizen or a resident of the United States of America or the United Arab Emirates. It is hereby expressly agreed that if there is more than one claimant party or more than one respondent party, the claimant parties shall together nominate one arbitrator and the respondent parties shall together nominate one arbitrator. In the event that a sole claimant or the claimant parties, on the one side, or a sole respondent or the respondent parties, on the other side, fails to nominate its/their arbitrator, such arbitrator shall be appointed by the LCIA Court. Any award issued by the arbitrators shall be final and binding upon the Parties, and, subject to this Section 9.10(c) and to Section 9.10(d), may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction by any of the Parties. In the event any Party

subject to such final and binding award desires to have it confirmed by a final order of a court, the only court which may do so shall be a court of competent jurisdiction located in London, England; provided however, that nothing in this sentence shall prejudice or prevent a Party from enforcing the arbitrators’ final and binding award in any court of competent jurisdiction. The Parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any breach of the terms of this Agreement could give rise to irreparable harm for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, the Parties agree that, prior to the formation of the Tribunal, the Parties have the right to apply exclusively to any court of competent jurisdiction or other judicial authority located in London, England for interim or conservatory measures, including, without limitation, to compel arbitration (an “Interim Relief Proceeding”). Furthermore, the Parties agree that, after the formation of the Tribunal, the arbitrators shall have the sole and exclusive power to grant temporary, preliminary and permanent relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance, and any then pending Interim Relief Proceeding shall be discontinued without prejudice to the rights of any of the parties thereto. Unless otherwise ordered by the arbitrators pursuant to the terms hereof, the arbitrators’ expenses shall be shared equally by the Parties. In furtherance of the foregoing, each of the Parties hereto irrevocably submits to: (i) the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England located in London, England in relation to any Interim Relief Proceeding and; (ii) the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England located in London, England with respect to the enforcement of any arbitral award rendered in accordance with this Section 9.10; and, with respect to any such suit, action or proceeding, waives any objection that it may have to the courts of England located in London, England on the grounds of inconvenient forum. For the avoidance of doubt, where an arbitral tribunal is appointed under this Agreement, the whole of its award shall be deemed for the purposes of the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards of 1958 to be contemplated by this Agreement (and judgment on any such award may be entered in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Section 9.10).

(d) Oyster hereby irrevocably waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law whatever defense it may have of sovereign immunity against suit or enforcement, for itself and its property (presently owned or subsequently acquired, and whether related to this Agreement or not), in: (i) any arbitration proceedings commenced and held in London, England in accordance with Section 9.10(c); (ii) any Interim Relief Proceeding commenced and held in a court of competent jurisdiction in London, England, in accordance with Section 9.10(c); (iii) any proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction located in London, England to confirm an award rendered by the arbitrators in accordance with this Section 9.10; and (iv) any proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction to enforce an award, and Oyster agrees that it will not raise, claim or cause to be pleaded any such immunity at or in respect of any such action or proceeding.

(e) The Parties hereto agree that the process by which any arbitral or other proceedings in London, England are begun may be served on them by being delivered to Law Debenture Corporate Services Limited or their registered offices for the time being and by giving notice in accordance with Section 9.02. If Law Debenture Corporate Services Limited is not or ceases to be effectively appointed to accept service of process in England on any Party’s behalf, such Party shall immediately appoint a further person in England to accept service of process on its behalf. If within fifteen (15) days of notice from a Party requiring another Party to appoint a person in England to accept service of process on its behalf the other Party fails to do so, the Party shall be entitled to appoint such a person by written notice to the other Party. Nothing in this paragraph shall affect the right of the Parties to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

SECTION 9.11. Currency. Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, all references to currency, monetary values and dollars set forth herein shall mean United States (U.S.) dollars and all payments hereunder shall be made in United States dollars.

SECTION 9.12. No Presumption Against Drafting Party. Each Party hereto acknowledges and agrees it has had the opportunity to draft, review and edit the language of this Agreement and that each of the Parties hereto has been represented by counsel in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would require interpretation of any claimed ambiguities in this Agreement against the drafting party has no application and is expressly waived.

SECTION 9.13. Expenses. Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, all costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, financial advisors and accountants, incurred in connection with this Agreement and in closing and carrying out the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the Party incurring such costs or expenses.

SECTION 9.14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the different Parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the date first written above by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized.
