Exhibit A

U.S. Federal Government Contracting, Commercial Item Status & Exceptions for Subcontracts

THIS PROPOSAL, and any resulting contract, is for the provision of “Commercial Items” as that term is defined at FAR 2.101. The Commercial Items are Field Programmable Gate Arrays (“FPGAs”) and/or commercial computer software (as defined below) that are used by the general public or by non-governmental entities for purposes other than governmental purposes, and have been offered for sale, lease, or license to the general public in substantial quantities based on established catalog or market prices. The Commercial Items further include commercial design services related to the design of programs that run on these FPGAs and are of a type offered and sold competitively in substantial quantities in the commercial marketplace based on established catalog or market prices for specific tasks performed or specific outcomes to be achieved and under standard commercial terms and conditions. Further, this is a firm-fixed-price Proposal, and, pursuant to FAR 12.214, Cost Accounting Standards (CAS) do not apply to firm-fixed-price contracts and subcontracts for the acquisition of Commercial Items.
Based on the above, Xilinx hereby excludes any clause requiring compliance with the Cost Accounting Standards and further claims exemption from all FAR and DFARS clauses with the exception of the following clauses that are required to be flowed down to subcontractors of Commercial Items:
