Article 2 – Definitions

For the avoidance of doubt, definitions set forth in the Agreement which refer to the Know How Agreement shall be understood as a reference to such Know How Transfer Agreement as amended by its Addendum #3. Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Agreement.

Article 3 – Shipment Qualification for the 90nm Contract Process

3.1

Section 2.1 of the Agreement shall be replaced in the following:

CONFIDENTIAL

2.1

During the Term of this Agreement, SMIC shall manufacture or have manufactured by one of its Subsidiaries (the “SMIC Subsidiaries”), subject to the restrictions of the Know How Transfer Agreement and further subject to Infineon’s placing of purchase orders within the scope of the Reserved Capacity and SMIC’s acceptance thereof, and sell to Infineon, or at the request of Infineon to a Subsidiary of Infineon (an “Infineon Subsidiary”), Contract Products having specifications and in quantities determined by the mutual agreement of SMIC and Infineon pursuant to this Agreement. In no event shall SMIC sell Contract Products (other than Scrap Contract Products and pre-qualification Risk Starts and Engineering Lots) to any person other than Infineon and/or an Infineon Subsidiary. For this purpose, SMIC shall equip its or the SMIC Subsidiary’s wafer fabs towards the Contract Process.

	2.1a		SMIC shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to achieve shipment qualification for the 140nm Contract Process no later than [*] or such other date as agreed to by the Parties pursuant to Section 17.1, and a subsequent ramp up speed of at least [*] wspm.

	2.1b		SMIC shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to achieve shipment qualification for the 110nm Contract Process (i) in its 200mm wafer fab no later than [*], and a subsequent ramp up speed of at least [] wspm for the conversion from the 140nm Contract Process to the 110nm Contract Process, and (ii) in its 300 mm wafer fab no later than [], and a subsequent ramp up speed of at least [*] wspm.

	2.1c		SMIC shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to achieve, as soon as possible, shipment qualification for the 90nm Contract Process in its 300mm wafer fab and the conversion from the 110nm Contract Process to the 90nm Contract Process.

			SMIC shall have achieved, by no later than [*] months after SQ (“SQ+ [], a ramp up of the 90nm Contract Process to [] wspm. In case SMIC fails to achieve such [] wspm during any given month in the twelve (12) months period following SQ+[], in addition to any other remedy Infineon may have hereunder, SMIC shall pay to Infineon liquidated damages of at maximum [] Euro (€[]) based on its proportional achievement of such [] wspm as follows: for each month in which SMIC fails to achieve [**] wspm, SMIC shall pay

200mm		5.000		15.000		20.000		20.000		20.000		—		—
300mm		—		As below		15.000		15.000		15.000		15.000		15.000

1.		2004 Capacity Increase

		Figures in the above table refer to calendar years and to the average wafer start per month (wspm) during the respective calendar year, excluding Engineering Lots and Wafer Risk Starts. However, the Reserved Capacity in 300mm Wafer size shall be increased in the calendar year 2004 as follows:


June		July		Aug.		Sept.		Oct.		Nov.		Dec.
	100		500		1.000		2.000		4.000		6.000		8.000

Subject to the foregoing, throughout a calendar year, the Reserved Capacity shall be allocated linearly on a monthly basis with respect to wafer output, with an allowable deviation of +[***]% /- [***]% per month. During the ramp up phases, the allowable deviation shall be in accordance with the respective ramp up plan.

2.		140nm to 110nm Conversion on 200mm

		The Reserved Capacity in 200mm Wafer size shall be converted from the 140nm Contract Process to the 110nm Contract Process pursuant to Section 2.1 of the Agreement. In any event, by the end of the calendar year 2004, the Reserved Capacity of 20.000 wspm in 200mm Wafer size shall be available using the 110nm Contract Process.

3.		100nm to 90nm Conversion on 300mm

		The Reserved Capacity in 300mm Wafer size shall be provided using the 110nm Contract Process and the 90nm Contract Process and the conversion from 110nm to 90nm shall be made pursuant to Section 2.1c of the Agreement.

4.		Volume Adjustment

4.1		When the Margin according to any of the models referred to in Annex 1 of the Agreement is

CONFIDENTIAL

		negative, then each Party shall have the right to adjust the wspm volume set forth on this Annex 2 of the respective negative Margin bearing Contract Product; provided that the Parties shall resume their obligations under the full Reserved Capacity as soon as the Margin becomes positive.

4.2		On a monthly basis, the Parties will discuss in good faith the extent and timing of a reduction in volume in accordance with Section 3.2.2 of the Agreement and taking into consideration Infineon’s then outstanding delivery obligations for Contract Products to its customers. Further, in no event shall the Reserved Capacity for 300mm Wafers be reduced below [***] wspm.

4.3		In addition, in order to prevent SMIC from requesting a wspm volume reduction, Infineon shall have the right to compensate SMIC for the lacking US Dollar amount which causes the Margin to become negative, in which case the then current wspm volume shall not be reduced.

4.4		The Parties acknowledge that the ongoing ramp up of the Reserved Capacity for 200mm Wafers, as of January 2004, has reached a volume of [*] wspm. SMIC agrees to increase the number of actual Wafer starts to said [] Wafers from February 2004 on (“[] Wafer In”). Only after [*] Wafer In have been reached, the wspm volume may again become subject to adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.

5.		Cycle Time

		SMIC shall use best efforts to achieve an actual cycle time for processing a Wafer of equal or less than [*] times the physical cycle time for processing such Wafer (i.e. flow factor [*]). During the ramp up phase of a new Contract Process, typical longer actual cycle times resulting from use of multiple one of a kind tools shall not result in a breach of this provision.

6.		Capacity used under the Disclosure and License Agreement

		The Disclosure and License Agreement may allow SMIC to use certain portions of the Reserved Capacity for the manufacture of products to certain third parties, subject to the terms and conditions of said Disclosure and License Agreement, in which case the number of Contract Products Infineon shall purchase under the Reserved Capacity shall be reduced by the number of Contract Products SMIC manufactures for third parties.
