Dear Bertrand,
I am pleased to extend you this offer of employment to join Spansion, Inc. Please see below of an outline of your compensation and benefits package:
Base Salary – Your initial bi-weekly base salary will be $17,952.12 which is equal to $466,755.12 on an annual basis. Spansion has 26 pay periods per year.
Bonus – You will continue your participation in Spansion's Corporate Incentive Plan (VPIP) with a short-term component target of 50% of base pay and a maximum of 150% of base pay.
Spansion makes available the same comprehensive benefits program available through AMD; including medical, dental, life and disability insurance coverage, 401(k) retirement savings plan with matching contributions, cash and deferred profit sharing plans, a payroll deduction stock investment plan, and a paid sabbatical after seven years of employment. The only current difference between AMD and Spansion benefits involves taxation under the stock purchase plan.

With respect to your current -accrued unused vacation, that time will transfer with you to Spansion. In addition, your current elections under AMD's benefits programs (e.g. health and welfare insurance coverage, 401k contributions, flexibility account contributions, and stock purchase plan contributions, etc.) will move with you to Spansion.
Benefits and Perquisites – Advanced Micro Devices makes available to employees a comprehensive benefits program including medical and dental coverage, cash and deferred profit sharing, salary investment and payroll deduction stock investment plans, and a paid sabbatical after seven years of employment. Questions about these plans will be discussed in your new employee orientation.

You will be taxed on the allowance based on a table produced by the IRS. Spansion will also reimburse you for your tax and estate planning/preparation up to $6,000 yearly.
