Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, Completion of Acquisition or Dispositio
As previously announced, on August 25, 2008, Broadcom Corporation ("Broadcom") and its subsidiary Broadcom International Limited ("Broadcom International") entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement") with Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. ("AMD"), pursuant to which Broadcom and Broadcom International agreed to acquire (either directly or through other subsidiaries) certain assets related to AMD's digital television business.
On October 27, 2008, Broadcom, Broadcom International and AMD entered into Amendment No. 1 (the "Amendment") to the Asset Purchase Agreement, which amended the Asset Purchase Agreement to (i) reduce the cash portion of the purchase price from $192.8 million to $141.5 million and (ii) effect a proportionate reduction in the amount to be deposited into the escrow available to satisfy any amounts owed by AMD to Broadcom pursuant to the indemnification provisions of the Asset Purchase Agreement and the Amendment.
The foregoing is a summary of the material terms of the Amendment and does not purport to summarize or include all terms of the Amendment. The summaries of the Amendment and the Asset Purchase Agreement contained or incorporated herein by reference are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full texts of the Amendment, attached as Exhibit 2.1 hereto, and the Asset Purchase Agreement, attached as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended September 30, 2008, each of which is incorporated herein by reference.
On October 28, 2008, Broadcom, directly or through other subsidiaries, completed its acquisition of certain assets related to AMD's digital television business pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, as amended by the Amendment, for a total purchase price of $141.5 million in cash, minus an adjustment for certain employee-related expenses. A portion of the purchase price was deposited into escrow for a period of 18 months following the closing to satisfy any amount owed by AMD to Broadcom pursuant to the indemnification provisions of the Asset Purchase Agreement and the Amendment. As previously disclosed, an additional portion of the purchase price was deposited in escrow to be held until certain audited 2008 financial statements for the acquired business have been delivered to Broadcom; such escrow is subject to forfeiture or reduction in the event of non-delivery or delay in delivery beyond certain agreed time periods. Delivery of such financial statements is expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 2008.
