EXHIBIT 10.25(b)
AMENDMENT 2
This is an amendment of Appendix D and a second amendment of the Technology
Development and License Agreement ("Agreement') entered into as of October 1,
1998 by and between Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and its Subsidiaries ("AMD"), a
Delaware Corporation, with principal offices located at Xxx XXX Xxxxx, X.X. Xxx
0000, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000-0000, and Motorola, Inc. and its Subsidiaries
("Motorola"), a Delaware corporation, with principal offices located at 0000
Xxxx Xxxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000.
Replace Section 1.4 of Appendix D with the below new Section 1.4:
1.4 Approved Projects - The parties agree no Project will be considered in
the Cost Equalization determination without prior approval of a Statement of
Work by the Executive Board of Directors, except as described below for 1998.
The parties agree any change to a Project plan scope or duration or budget
variance over the course of a fiscal year in excess of 110% must be approved by
the Executive Board of Directors.
Replace Section 1.5.2 of Appendix D with the below new Section 1.5.2:
1.5.2 For 1999 and subsequent years - Thirty days after the conclusion of each
quarter, each party will provide a statement to the other stating the Cost
Equalization determination for each Project then pending, including a summary
breakdown of the cost elements.
Processing of device and product test structures or test vehicles, including
equal quantities of transfer wafers for each party, are included in the cope of
Project requirements and, as such, are intended to be included in the Statements
of Work and are subject to Cost Equalization.
Except as set forth in the preceding paragraph with respect to transfer
wafers, each party with bear its own costs in connection with technology
transfer and installation into production facilities and such costs will not be
subject to the Cost Equalization determination. Costs not subject to Cost
Equalization include process documentation, all reasonable personnel expenses,
including travel, for personnel assigned to assist in a process transfer, and
other similar costs. In the event that one party (first party) requires more
transfer wafers than the other (second party), the quantity of transfer wafers
required by the first party in excess of that required by the second party will
not be subject to Cost Equalization and the cost thereof shall be borne by the
first party.
If either party requests the other party to process material either because it
requires a quantity of transfer wafers in excess of that required by the other
party or for a purpose beyond the scope of a Project such as for the transfer of
a technology, verification of designs, additional processing for technology
evaluation, or product qualification, the non-requesting party will make
commercially reasonable efforts to comply with the request and will charge the
requesting party a price not to exceed actual costs.

Pre-production, pilot production, risk starts, or other product specific
processing are outside the scope of the Projects and are not to be included in
the Statements of Work or included in the Cost Equalization determination. This
type of processing by one party on behalf of the other party would be considered
Foundry.
Each party will continue to calculate quarterly actual spending on a by
project basis. Actual spending will be reviewed by Program Management.
The actual quarterly spending for each party will be compared to each party's
spending budget for that quarter. If either party exceeds their respective
quarterly spending budget, in total for all projects, the actual spending will
be lowered to budget for determining an Adjusted Cost Equalization amount.
For 1999, the parties will compare the Cost Equalization statements. For 2000
and subsequent years, the parties will compare the Adjusted Cost Equalization
amounts. The party with the smaller amount for the quarter will pay the other
party fifty percent (50%) of the difference between the two parties' Cost
Equalization amounts within forty-five (45) days after the end of the quarter.
If on a forward looking basis there are significant changes (greater than 10%
on a yearly basis) in scope or party participation on a project basis, or it is
believed that actual spending by either or both parties will exceed budget by
greater than 10% for all projects for the calendar year, the Steering Committee
may recommend to the Board of Directors revisions to each party's budgeted
project spending. Upon approval of changes by the board, these revised budget
amounts will be used in determination of quarter Cost Equalization amounts.
Payment will be made by electronic funds transfer:

1.6.2 Standardized costs - non-Process and non-Direct costs associated with
Project related engineering development and support. These costs include, but
are not limited to:
(a) Process, device, design, reliability, and test engineering, and related
personnel labor and fringes, otherwise not comprehended in Process costs above,
at a mutually agreed upon standard rate of *****. This rate will be reviewed

approval and incorporated into the Statements of Work.
For budget cost reporting, each Project will be budgeted by individual name
and/or number of individuals, and Project time applied by quarter.
For actual cost reporting, each Program Manager will provide an employee
participation list quarterly, by individual name and Project time applied in
weekly increments for that individual. Weekly increments may be subdivided to
the nearest whole day or 0.2 weeks. The standard rate per quarter will be
prorated by the number of Project weeks applied versus total weeks in the
quarter.
(b) One party's personnel assigned to a Project, and the other party's
assignees to that party's facility where office space is provided, will be
assessed by that party at the standard rate of ***** prorated by the time
applied to the Project by individual as outlined above for purposes of
comprehending items such as comparable rent; facilities upkeep; phone;
networking requirements; systems administration support; workstation hardware
depreciation and maintenance; software amortization, expense, licenses, and
maintenance; internal data processing charges; and general office supplies.
This rate will be reviewed annually and mutually agreed to by both parties'
finance personnel. Any changes to this rate will be presented to the Executive
Board of Directors for final approval and incorporated into the Statements of
Work.
(c) Experiments, tests, and development in device lab, reliability lab, test
lab or other facilities otherwise not comprehended in Process costs above will
be budgeted at amounts mutually agreed to by the Program Managers, or the
parties if the Project has only one Program Manager, in the Statements of Work.
These costs will be assigned to the Projects at the budgeted amounts, or
budgeted fixed amounts per project participant, in the quarter actually incurred
for Cost Equalization determination.
(d) For individuals in this cost category, including one party's assignees to
the other party's facility, the party owning the facility is responsible for the
acquisition and cost of individual tool requirements. These costs include, but
are not limited to, engineering workstations, software, licenses, and
maintenance.
Replace Section 1.6.3 of Appendix D with the below new Section 1.6.3:
1.6.3 Direct Costs - actual costs incurred for budgeted activities of Projects
that are not comprehended or otherwise covered in the two categories above. The
costs include, but are not limited to:
(a) External processing, testing, consulting, or evaluation (actual or
budgeted amount);
(b) Photomask costs identified to the Project.
