Item
1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On
November 11, 2009, Intel Corporation (Intel) and Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
(AMD) entered into a comprehensive agreement to end all outstanding litigation
between the parties, including antitrust litigation and patent cross license
disputes (the “Settlement Agreement”). Intel agreed to pay $1.25
billion to AMD as consideration for the settlement within thirty
days.
Under the
terms of the Settlement Agreement, AMD agreed to drop all pending litigation
against Intel, including the case in the U.S. District Court in Delaware and the
two cases pending in Japan. AMD also agreed to withdraw all of its regulatory
complaints against Intel worldwide. AMD and Intel obtained patent
rights from a new 5-year cross license agreement, and AMD and Intel relinquished
any claims of breach from the previous license agreement. Intel also entered
into a license agreement with Global Foundries, Inc., a manufacturing entity
formed by AMD and Advanced Technology Investment Company. The parties
agreed that the settlement was intended solely as a compromise of disputed
claims, and was not to be understood as a concession or determination that
either party has engaged in any wrongdoing.
The above
description of the material terms of the Settlement Agreement is qualified in
its entirety by reference to the text of the agreement, which
is Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Further
information regarding the disputes between Intel and AMD that were resolved
pursuant to the Settlement Agreement is set forth in Note 24: Contingencies;
Legal Contingencies, in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
of Intel’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ending September 26, 2009, filed on
