Significant Agreements | 8. Significant Agreements ​ GLOBALFOUNDRIES, Inc. Joint Development Agreement ​ Since October 17, 2014, the Company has participated in a joint development agreement (JDA) with GLOBALFOUNDRIES Inc. (GF), a semiconductor foundry, for the joint development of Spin-transfer Torque MRAM (STT-MRAM), technology to produce a family of discrete and embedded MRAM technologies. The term of the JDA is until the completion, termination, or expiration of the last statement of work entered into pursuant to the JDA. The JDA was extended on December 31, 2019, to include a new phase of support for 12nm MRAM development. ​ Under the current JDA extension terms, each party licenses its relevant intellectual property to the other party. For certain jointly developed works, the parties have agreed to follow an invention allocation procedure to determine ownership. In addition, GF possesses the exclusive right to manufacture the Company’s discrete and embedded STT-MRAM devices developed pursuant to the JDA until the earlier of three years after the qualification of the MRAM device for a particular technology node or four years after the completion of the relevant statement of work under which the device was developed. For the same exclusivity period associated with the relevant device, GF agreed not to license intellectual property developed in connection with the JDA to named competitors of the Company. If GF manufactures, sells, or transfers to customers wafers containing production quantified STT-MRAM devices that utilize certain design information, GF will be required to pay the Company a royalty. ​
