The amendment stated AMD would continue to procure 12 nm node and above from GlobalFoundries while giving AMD latitude to purchase 7 nm node manufactured wafers from any source free from paying any royalties. The agreement will run through 2024 and ensures that GlobalFoundries will have work for its Malta plant for that time period.
