In the event of a conflict between the general terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail. However, this Agreement sets out specific terms for your award, and those terms will prevail over more general terms in the Plan on the same issue, if any, or in the event of a conflict between such terms.

ISSUANCE OF OPTIONS. The Options will be registered in the name of the Trustee as required by law to qualify under Section 102, for your benefit.

• The Trustee will hold the options or the Shares to be issued upon exercise of the options for the Lock-up Period, as set forth in the Plan.

NON TRANSFERABILITY OF STOCK OPTIONS. Your stock options and related rights are not transferable except by the laws of descent and distribution.

• Once your options vest, they are available for you to exercise (purchase Spansion common stock at the exercise price) until they expire or terminate, whichever is earlier. Your final opportunity to exercise your vested options is the earlier of the last regular trading day of the Company on or before the expiration date of the options, or the last regular trading day of the Company on or before the options terminate in the case of an earlier termination of the options.

• You may not exercise an option for a fractional share of stock.

• The options, or any part thereof, shall be exercisable by your signing and returning to the Company or its agent a notice of exercise in a form approved by the Company, together with payment of the aggregate purchase price, including any applicable tax withholdings, in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

• In connection with the issuance of shares upon the exercise of any of the options, you agree to sign any and all documents required by law and/or the Company.

• The Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates and the Trustee may make such provisions and take such steps as it/they may deem necessary or appropriate for the withholding of all taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to options granted under the Plan and the exercise of such options, including, but not limited, to (i) deducting the amount so required to be withheld from any other amount then or thereafter payable to you, including by deducting any such amount from your salary or other amounts payable to the you, to the maximum extent permitted under law and/or (ii) requiring you to pay to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates the amount so required to be withheld as a condition of the issuance, delivery, distribution or release of any shares and/or (iii) by causing the exercise and sale of any options or shares held by or on behalf of you to cover such liability up to the amount required to satisfy minimum statutory withholding requirements. In addition, you agree to pay any amount that exceeds the tax to be withheld and transferred to the tax authorities, pursuant to applicable Israeli tax regulations.

The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.
