Sign-On Bonus: You will also receive a one-time gross sign-on bonus of $750,000 (subject to deductions and withholdings as required by law) to be paid within 30 days of your date of hire at AMD. Although you will receive this bonus within 30 days of your hire date, the bonus is only earned in its entirety when you have been employed at AMD for two years. If your AMD employment terminates prior to two years from hire date, you must repay to AMD 100% of the bonus, as stated in the terms and conditions of the enclosed Sign-on Bonus Agreement. You must sign and date the enclosed Sign-on Bonus Agreement, and return the original of the agreement along with the original of this executed offer and acceptance letter.
Long-Term Incentives: Subject to approval by the Compensation Committee of AMD’s Board of Directors (Compensation Committee), you will be granted the following:
• | An initial new hire grant in restricted stock units (RSU’s) with a target value equivalent to $1,750,000 vesting 33% annually in the following 3 years, assuming continuing active service with AMD through the vesting dates. |
• | An annual grant valued at $2,000,000 as follows: |
• | $500,000 in time-based RSUs vesting 33% annually in the following three years, assuming continuing active service with AMD through the vesting dates. |
• | $1,000,000 in performance-based RSUs tied to performance metrics as approved by the Compensation Committee. |
• | $500,000 in stock options, with the exercise price equal to the closing price of AMD common stock on the date of grant, vesting 33% on the first anniversary date and quarterly thereafter over the following two years. |
The formula for determining the number of RSU’s & performance-based RSUs follows:
• | # of RSU’s = target value divided by the 30-day average closing price through and including the grant date. |
