The closure of amendment negotiations solidifies AMD's new operating model as communicated at the third quarter 2012 earnings announcement.
To better align with today's PC market dynamics, AMD and Globalfoundries agreed on purchase commitments for fourth quarter 2012 and established fixed pricing and other terms of the WSA which apply to products AMD will purchase from Globalfoundries through Dec. 31, 2013.
"Today's announcement demonstrates that the long-term strategic partnership between AMD and Globalfoundries continues to benefit both companies," said Rory Read, president and chief executive officer, AMD. "Globalfoundries' performance in meeting our delivery requirements in 2012 was strong and they remain a strategic and important foundry partner moving forward.
