Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. Closes $2.2 Billion Offering of Convertible Senior Notes

Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NYSE:AMD) today announced the closing of its offering of $2.2 billion aggregate principal amount of 6.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2015, including $200 million of notes that were issued in connection with the exercise in full of the initial purchasers’ over-allotment option. The notes were privately offered to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

In connection with the offering, AMD entered into capped call transactions with an affiliate of one of the initial purchasers. The capped call transactions are intended to reduce the potential dilution to AMD’s stockholders upon any future conversion of the notes. The capped call transaction effectively will increase the conversion price of the convertible notes to $42.12 per share of AMD’s common stock, representing a 300% premium relative to the last reported sale price of $14.04 per share of the common stock on April 23, 2007.

AMD estimates that the net proceeds from the offering, will be approximately $2,169 million, after deducting discounts, commissions and estimated offering expenses. AMD used approximately $182 million of the net proceeds of the offering to fund the cost of the capped call transactions. AMD used $500 million of the remaining net proceeds to repay a portion of the term loan AMD entered into with Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. to finance a portion of the purchase price of, and expenses related to, the acquisition of ATI Technologies Inc. AMD will use the remaining amount for general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital expenditures.
