(e) Civil Proceedings: During the last five years, neither the Reporting Person nor any executive officer or director of the Reporting Person has been party to any civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which such person was or is subject to any judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, Federal or State securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. CUSIP No. 595112 13D Page 4 of 13 (f) Place of Organization: Delaware Attached hereto as Appendix A is information required by this Item 2 with respect to the executive officers and directors of the Reporting Person. All such individuals are U.S. citizens, except as otherwise indicated on Appendix A. ITEM 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. (a) Source of Funds: Funds for the purchase of the Stock Rights (as defined in Item 4) were derived from the Reporting Person's working capital. (b) Amount of Funds: $449,999,998.05 was paid to acquire the Stock Rights that are convertible into or exchangeable for (at no additional consideration) 33,860,045 shares of shares of the Issuer's Common Stock. ITEM 4. Purpose of the Transaction. On September 24, 2003, the Reporting Person acquired for $449,999,998.05 non-voting stock rights convertible into or exchangeable for (at no additional consideration) 33,860,045 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock at a conversion price of $13.29 (the "Stock Rights"). If exercised currently, the number of shares represents approximately 5.3% of the Issuer. The Rights are exercisable at any time subject to compliance with any applicable regulatory requirements. The investment was intended to support the development and supply of next generation memory products. In the event the Issuer fails to achieve certain milestones related to such products and the price of the Issuer's Common Stock is then below Reporting Person's purchase price, the Issuer could be obligated to pay the Reporting Person certain amounts not to exceed $135 million in the aggregate, a substantial portion of which is payable, at the Issuer's election, in the Issuer's common stock. The Reporting Person presently holds the Stock Rights as an investment. Depending upon the Reporting Person's evaluation of market conditions, market price, alternative investment opportunities, liquidity needs and other factors, the Reporting Person will from time to time explore opportunities for liquidating all or a portion the Stock Rights, through one or more sales pursuant to public or private offerings or otherwise. CUSIP No. 595112 13D Page 5 of 13 In such event, the Reporting Person may determine to retain some portion of the Stock Rights as an investment. ITEM 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer. The information contained in Item 4 is incorporated herein by this reference. (a) Number of Shares Beneficially Owned: 33,860,045 (1) Percent of Class: 5.3% (b) Sole Power to Vote, Direct the Vote of, or Dispose of Shares: 33,860,045 (c) Recent Transactions: See Item 4. (d) Rights with Respect to Dividends or Sales Proceeds: N/A (e) Date of Cessation of Five Percent Beneficial Ownership: N/A (1) The Reporting Person does not directly own the securities of the Issuer. By reason of the provisions of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended, the Reporting Person is deemed to own beneficially the securities of the Issuer that are owned beneficially by Intel Capital Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Reporting Person. These securities of the Issuer include 33,860,045 shares of Common Stock that the Reporting Person has a right to acquire upon exchange or conversion of the Stock Rights. Furthermore, such shares are beneficially owned by the Reporting Person under Rule 13d-3 because the Reporting Person has a right to acquire such shares of the Issuer's Common Stock by exchange or conversion of the Stock Rights within the next 60 days. The Stock Rights are non-voting securities. An executive officer of the Reporting Person beneficially owns 350 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock acquired in August 2002. ITEM 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer. Pursuant to the Rights and Restrictions Agreement (as defined in Item 7), the Reporting Person has, under certain circumstances, various rights including registration of the Common Stock issuable upon exchange or conversion of the Stock Rights pursuant to certain shelf, demand and piggyback registration rights granted to the Reporting Person. Pursuant to the Rights and Restrictions Agreement, the Reporting Person has certain standstill obligations relating to its acquisition of voting securities of the Issuer. In addition, the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Rights and Restrictions CUSIP No. 595112 13D Page 6 of 13 Agreement and the Stock Rights Agreement (as defined in Item 7) place certain restrictions on the transfer of the securities of the Issuer. See the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Rights and Restrictions Agreement, and the Stock Rights Agreement for a further description of these and other provisions. ITEM 7.

(a) If at any time after ninety (90) days after the date hereof, Micron shall determine to register any of its equity or equity-linked securities (other than registration statements relating to (i) employee, consultant or distributor compensation or incentive arrangements (including employee benefit plans), (ii) acquisitions or any transaction or transactions under Rule 145 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule with similar effect), (iii) distributions by principal stockholders, their Affiliates or transferees (unless consented to by such principal stockholders, Affiliates or transferees), or (iv) pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act), then Micron will promptly give Intel Capital written notice thereof and include in such Micron-initiated, non-shelf, registration statement (a "Piggyback Registration Statement"), and in any underwriting involved therein, all Registrable Securities (the "Piggyback Registrable Securities") specified in a written request made by Intel Capital (a "Piggyback Request") within five (5) business days after receipt of such written notice from Micron; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 4.3(a), or any other provision of this Agreement, shall be construed to limit the absolute right of Micron, for any reason and in its sole discretion: (i) to delay, suspend or terminate the filing of any Piggyback Registration Statement; (ii) to delay the effectiveness of any Piggyback Registration Statement; (iii) to terminate or reduce the number of Piggyback Registrable Securities to be distributed pursuant to any Piggyback Registration Statement (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 4.3(c) hereof); or (iv) to withdraw such Piggyback Registration Statement. (b) If the Piggyback Registration Statement of which Micron gives notice is for an underwritten offering, Micron shall so advise Intel Capital as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 4.3(a). In such event, the right of Intel Capital to registration pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall be conditioned upon the agreement of Intel Capital to participate in such underwriting and in the inclusion of such Piggyback Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. Intel Capital shall (together with Micron and any other holders distributing securities in such Piggyback Registration Statement, if any) enter into an underwriting agreement (the "Piggyback Underwriting Agreement") in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by Micron. (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the managing underwriters of any underwritten offering pursuant to a Piggyback Request determine, in their sole discretion that, after including all the shares to be offered by Micron and all the shares of any other Persons entitled to registration rights with respect to such Piggyback Registration Statement (pursuant to other agreements with Micron), marketing factors require a limitation of the number of Piggyback Registrable Securities to be underwritten, the managing underwriters of such offering may exclude any and all of the Piggyback Registrable Securities, provided that such cut-back is made pro rata with respect to any other securities proposed to be included in such registration statement pursuant to "piggy-back" registration rights (a "Piggyback Market Cut-Back"). If Intel Capital disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, it may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to Micron and the managing underwriters. Any Piggyback Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such Piggyback Registration Statement. (d) Except to the extent specifically provided in this Section 4.3 hereof, the procedures to be followed by Micron and Intel Capital, and the respective rights and obligations of Micron and Intel Capital, with respect to the distribution of any Piggyback Registrable Securities by Intel Capital pursuant to any Piggyback Registration Statement filed by Micron shall be as set forth in the Piggyback Underwriting Agreement, or any other agreement or agreements governing the distribution of such Piggyback Registrable Securities pursuant to such Piggyback Registration Statement. 4.4 Demand and Shelf Registration Procedures, Rights and Obligations. The procedures to be followed by Micron and Intel Capital, and the respective rights and obligations of Micron and Intel Capital, with respect to the preparation, filing and effectiveness of Demand Registration Statements and Shelf Registration Statements, respectively, and the distribution of Demand Registrable Securities and Tranche Registrable Securities, respectively, pursuant thereto, are as follows: (a) Intel Capital shall not be entitled to make more than one Demand Request or Tranche Request during any one hundred eighty (180) day period (the "180-Day Limitation"); provided, however, that (i) any Demand Request that: (A) does not result in the corresponding Demand Registration Statement being declared effective by the SEC; (B) is withdrawn by Intel Capital following the imposition of a stop order by the SEC with respect to the corresponding Demand Registration Statement; (C) is withdrawn by Intel Capital as a result of the exercise by Micron of its suspension rights pursuant to Sections 4.4(e) or (f) hereof; or (D) is withdrawn by Intel Capital as a result of a Demand/Tranche Market Cut-Back (as defined in Section 4.4(d) hereof); and (ii) any Tranche Request that: (A) is withdrawn by Intel Capital following the imposition of a stop order by the SEC with respect to the corresponding Shelf Registration Statement; (B) is withdrawn by Intel Capital as a result of the exercise by Micron of its suspension rights pursuant to Sections 4.4(e) or (f) hereof; or (C) is withdrawn by Intel Capital as a result of a Demand/Tranche Market Cut-Back, shall not count for the purposes of determining compliance with the 180-Day Limitation. Any Demand Request or Tranche Request that is withdrawn by Intel Capital for any reason other than as set forth in the previous sentence shall count for purposes of determining compliance with the 180-Day Limitation. Piggyback Requests shall not count for purposes of determining compliance with the 180-Day Limitation regardless of whether a Piggyback Registration Statement is filed, declared effective or withdrawn or whether any distribution of Piggyback Registrable Securities is effected, terminated or cut back (pursuant to Section 4.3(c) hereof, or otherwise). Intel Capital shall not be entitled to offer or sell any securities pursuant to a Demand Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement unless and until, following a Demand Request or a Tranche Request, as applicable, Micron has made all required filings with the SEC with respect to the distribution of Registrable Securities contemplated by such Demand Request or Tranche Request, as applicable, such filings have become effective and Micron has promptly notified Intel Capital of the foregoing and that no Suspension Condition then exists. (b) Micron shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Demand Registration Statement and Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective promptly and to keep such Demand Registration Statement and Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective until the earlier to occur of: (i) the sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities so registered; (ii) (X) in the case of a firmly committed, underwritten offering, sixty (60) days after (A) if pursuant to a Demand Registration Statement, the effective date of any Demand Registration Statement or (B) if pursuant to a Tranche Request, the date of the final prospectus used to confirm sales in connection with the underwritten offering of Tranche Registrable Securities, and (Y) in the case of all other plans of distribution, (A) if pursuant to a Demand Registration Statement, fifteen (15) business days after the effective date of such Demand Registration Statement or (B) if pursuant to a Tranche Request, fifteen (15) business days after the earlier of the effectiveness of the amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or the filing of the amendment or supplement to the prospectus included in such registration statement required to facilitate such distribution and the date of the notice required by the last sentence of Section 4.4(a) hereof if no such amendment or supplement is so required; and (iii) the termination of Intel Capital's registration rights pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof. Micron shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to each Demand Registration Statement and Shelf Registration Statement and each prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to make and to keep such Demand Registration Statement and Shelf Registration Statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the sale or other disposition of all Registrable Securities proposed to be distributed pursuant to such Demand Registration Statement and Shelf Registration Statement until the earlier to occur of (i) the sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities so registered; (ii) (X) in the case of a firmly committed, underwritten offering, sixty (60) days after (A) if pursuant to a Demand Registration Statement, the effective date of any Demand Registration Statement or (B) if pursuant to a Tranche Request, the date of the final prospectus used to confirm sales in connection with the underwritten offering of Tranche Registrable Securities, and (Y) in the case of all other plans of distribution, (a) if pursuant to a Demand Registration Statement, fifteen (15) business days after the effective date of such Demand Registration Statement or (b) if pursuant to a Tranche Request, fifteen (15) business days after the earlier of the effectiveness of the amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or the filing of the amendment or supplement to the prospectus included in such registration statement required to facilitate such distribution and the date of the notice required by the last sentence of Section 4.4(a) hereof if no such amendment or supplement is so required; and (iii) the termination of Intel Capital's registration rights pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof. (c) In connection with any underwritten offering pursuant to a Demand Registration Statement or a Shelf Registration Statement which Intel Capital has requested be underwritten, Micron, on the one hand, and Intel Capital, on the other hand, shall each select one investment banking firm to serve as co- manager of such offering. The co-manager selected by Micron shall be subject to the prior approval of Intel Capital, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, and the co-manager selected by Intel Capital shall be subject to the prior approval of Micron, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Each of the co-managers so selected by Micron and Intel Capital are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Demand/Tranche Managing Underwriters." The Demand/Tranche Underwriter selected by Intel Capital shall be the lead Demand/Tranche Managing Underwriter, whose responsibilities shall include running the "books" for any offering. Micron shall, together with Intel Capital, enter into an underwriting agreement with the Demand/Tranche Managing Underwriters, which agreement shall contain representations, warranties, indemnities and agreements then customarily included by an issuer in underwriting agreements with respect to secondary distributions under demand registration statements or shelf registration statements, as the case may be, and shall stipulate that the Demand/Tranche Managing Underwriters will receive equal commissions and fees and other remuneration in connection with the distribution of any Demand Registrable Securities or Tranche Registrable Securities thereunder. (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in connection with any underwritten offering, the number of Demand Registrable Securities or Tranche Registrable Securities proposed to be distributed by Intel Capital pursuant to any Demand Request or Tranche Request may be limited by the Demand/Tranche Managing Underwriters if such Demand/Tranche Managing Underwriters determine that the sale of such Demand Registrable Securities or Tranche Registrable Securities would significantly and adversely affect the market price of the Common Stock (a "Demand/Tranche Market Cut-Back"). If Intel Capital disapproves of the terms of any proposed underwritten offering under a Demand Registration Statement or a Shelf Registration Statement (including, without limitation, any reduction in the number of Demand Registrable Securities or Tranche Registrable Securities, as the case may be, to be sold by Intel Capital thereunder pursuant to this Section 4.4(d)), Intel Capital may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to Micron and the Demand/Tranche Managing Underwriters. Any Demand Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall also be withdrawn from any applicable Demand Registration Statement. (e) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, in the event that Micron receives a Demand Request, Shelf Request or Tranche Request at a time when Micron (i) shall have filed, or has a bona fide intention to promptly file, a registration statement with respect to a proposed public offering of equity or equity-linked securities or (ii) has commenced, or has a bona fide intention to promptly commence, a public offering of equity or equity-linked securities pursuant to an existing effective shelf or other registration statement, then Micron shall be entitled to suspend, for a period of up to ninety (90) days after the receipt by Micron of such Demand Request, Shelf Request or Tranche Request, the filing of any Demand Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement or the implementation of any Tranche Request. (f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that Micron determines that: (i) non-public material information regarding Micron exists, the immediate disclosure of which would be significantly disadvantageous to Micron; (ii) the prospectus constituting a part of any Demand Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement covering the distribution of any Demand Registrable Securities or Tranche Securities contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; or (iii) an offering of Demand Registrable Securities or Tranche Registrable Securities would materially interfere with any proposed material acquisition, disposition or other similar corporate transaction or event involving Micron (each of the events or conditions referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this sentence is hereinafter referred to as a "Suspension Condition"), then Micron shall have the right to suspend the filing or effectiveness of any Demand Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement or to suspend any distribution of Demand Registrable Securities or Tranche Registrable Securities pursuant to any effective Demand Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement for so long as such Suspension Condition exists. Micron will as promptly as practicable provide written notice to Intel Capital when a Suspension Condition arises and when it ceases to exist. Upon receipt of notice from Micron of the existence of any Suspension Condition, Intel Capital shall forthwith discontinue efforts to: (i) file or cause any Demand Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC (in the event that such Demand Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement has not been filed, or has been filed but not declared effective, at the time Intel Capital receives notice that a Suspension Condition has arisen); or (ii) offer or sell Demand Registrable Securities or Tranche Registrable Securities (in the event that such Demand Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective at the time Intel Capital receives notice that a Suspension Condition has arisen). In the event that Intel Capital had previously commenced or was about to commence the distribution of Demand Registrable Securities or Tranche Registrable Securities pursuant to a prospectus under an effective Demand Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement, then Micron shall, as promptly as practicable after the Suspension Condition ceases to exist, make available to Intel Capital (and to each underwriter, if any, participating in such distribution) an amendment or supplement to such prospectus. If so directed by Micron, Intel Capital shall deliver to Micron all copies, other than permanent file copies then in Intel Capital's possession, of the most recent prospectus covering such Demand Registrable Securities or Tranche Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. (g) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Micron shall not be permitted to postpone (i) the filing or effectiveness of any Demand Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement or (ii) the distribution of any Demand Registrable Securities or Tranche Registrable Securities pursuant to an effective Demand Registration Statement or an effective Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Sections 4.4(e), 4.4(f) or 4.9(a) hereof for an aggregate of more than one hundred thirty- five (135) days in any one hundred eighty day (180) day period (including any market standoff periods applicable to Intel Capital pursuant to Section 4.9(a) hereof). (h) Micron shall promptly notify Intel Capital of any stop order issued or, to Micron's knowledge, threatened to be issued by the SEC with respect to any Demand Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement as to which a Tranche Request is pending, and will use its best efforts to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if entered at the earliest possible date. (i) Micron shall furnish to Intel Capital (and any underwriters in connection with any underwritten offering) such number of copies of any prospectus (including any preliminary prospectus and any amended or supplemented prospectus), in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, as Intel Capital (and such underwriters) shall reasonably request in order to effect the offering and sale of any Demand Registrable Securities or Tranche Registrable Securities to be offered and sold, but only while Micron shall be required under the provisions hereof to cause the Demand Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to which such Demand Registrable Securities or Tranche Registrable Securities are intended to be distributed to remain current. (j) Micron shall use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Demand Registrable Securities and Tranche Registrable Securities covered by each Demand Registration Statement and Shelf Registration Statement, respectively, under the state securities or "blue sky" laws of such states as Intel Capital shall reasonably request, maintain any such registration or qualification current, until the earlier to occur of: (i) the sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities so registered; (ii) (X) in the case of a firmly committed, underwritten offering, sixty (60) days after (A) if pursuant to a Demand Registration Statement, the effective date of any Demand Registration Statement or (B) if pursuant to a Tranche Request, the date of the final prospectus used to confirm sales in connection with the underwritten offering of Tranche Registrable Securities, and (Y) in the case of all other plans of distribution, (A) if pursuant to a Demand Registration Statement, thirty (30) business days after the effective date of such Demand Registration Statement or (B) if pursuant to a Tranche Request, thirty (30) business days after the earlier of the effectiveness of the amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or the filing of the amendment or supplement to the prospectus included in such registration statement required to facilitate such distribution and the date of the notice required by the last sentence of Section 4.4(a) hereof if no such amendment or supplement is so required; and (iii) the termination of Intel Capital's registration rights pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof; provided, however, that Micron shall not be required to take any action that would subject it to the general jurisdiction of the courts of any jurisdiction in which it is not so subject or to qualify as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where Micron is not so qualified. (k) Micron shall furnish to Intel Capital and to each underwriter engaged in an underwritten offering of Demand Registrable Securities or Tranche Registrable Securities, a signed counterpart, addressed to Intel Capital or such underwriter, of (i) an opinion or opinions of counsel to Micron (with respect to Micron and securities law compliance by Micron) and (ii) a comfort letter or comfort letters from Micron's independent public accountants, each in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by opinions or comfort letters, as the case may be, as Intel Capital or the managing underwriters may reasonably request. (l) Micron shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make appropriate members of its management reasonably available for due diligence purposes, "road show" presentations and analyst presentations in connection with any distributions of Demand Registrable Securities or Tranche Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration Statement or a Shelf Registration Statement. (m) Micron shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Demand Registrable Securities and Tranche Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities of Micron are then listed. (n) Micron shall make generally available to its securityholders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering a period of twelve (12) months, beginning three months after the effective date of any Demand Registration Statement relating to the distribution of Demand Registrable Securities or the date of any final prospectus used to confirm sales in connection with any offering of Tranche Registrable Securities, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act. (o) Micron shall take all such other actions either reasonably necessary or desirable to permit the Registrable Securities held by Intel Capital to be registered and disposed of in accordance with the methods of disposition described herein. 4.5 Expenses. (a) All of the out of pocket costs and expenses incurred by Micron in connection with any registration pursuant to Sections 4.1 and 4.2 (up to $100,000 in the case of a Demand Registration Statement, $75,000 in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement and $50,000 in the case of any amendments or supplements required in connection with a Tranche Request, plus, in all instances, the actual amount of any filing fees) shall (subject to Section 4.7) be borne by Intel Capital; provided that Intel Capital shall not be required to reimburse Micron for compensation of Micron's officers and employees, regular audit expenses, and normal corporate costs incurred in connection with such registration. The costs and expenses of any such registration shall include, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of Micron's counsel and its accountants and all other out of pocket costs and expenses of Micron incident to the preparation, printing and filing of the registration statement and all amendments and supplements thereto and the cost of furnishing copies of each preliminary prospectus, each final prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto to underwriters, dealers and other purchasers of the securities so registered, the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the qualification of such securities so registered under the securities or "blue sky" laws of various jurisdictions, the fees and expenses of Micron's transfer agent and all other costs and expenses of complying with the provisions of this Section 4 with respect to such registration (collectively, the "Registration Expenses"). (b) Micron shall pay all Registration Expenses incurred by Micron in connection with any registration statements that are initiated pursuant to Section 4.3 of this Agreement, other than incremental filing fees associated with the inclusion of the Registrable Securities in the registration statement. Intel Capital shall pay all expenses incurred on its behalf with respect to any registration pursuant to Section 4.3, including, without limitation, any counsel for Intel Capital and all underwriting discounts and selling commissions with respect to the Registrable Securities sold by it pursuant to such registration statement. 4.6 Indemnification. (a) In the case of any offering registered pursuant to this Section 4, Micron hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold harmless Intel Capital (and its officers and directors), any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) of Registrable Securities offered by Intel Capital, and each Person, if any, who controls Intel Capital or any such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which any such Persons may be subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, and to reimburse any of such Persons for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating any claims or defending against any actions, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of or are based upon (a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to this Section 4, the prospectus contained therein (during the period that Micron is required to keep such prospectus current), or any amendment or supplement thereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein (if so used) a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading or (b) any violation or alleged violation by Micron of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any federal or state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any federal or state securities law in connection with the offering covered by such registration statement, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of or are (i) based upon any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon information furnished to Micron in writing by Intel Capital or any underwriter for Intel Capital specifically for use therein, or (ii) made in any preliminary prospectus, and the prospectus contained in the registration statement as declared effective or in the form filed by Micron with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act shall have corrected such statement or omission and a copy of such prospectus shall not have been sent or otherwise delivered to such Person at of prior to the confirmation of such sale to such Person. (b) By requesting registration under this Section 4, Intel Capital agrees, if Registrable Securities held by Intel Capital are included in the securities as to which such registration is being effected, and each underwriter shall agree, in substantially the same manner and to substantially the same extent as set forth in the preceding paragraph, to indemnify and to hold harmless Micron (and its directors and officers) and each Person, if any, who controls Micron within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which any, of such Persons may be subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, and to reimburse any of such Persons for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending against any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, but only to the extent it arises out of or is based upon (a) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission of a material fact in any registration statement under which the Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to this Section 4, any prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, which was based upon and made in conformity with information furnished to Micron in writing by Intel Capital or any underwriter for Intel Capital expressly for use therein or (b) any violation or alleged violation by Intel Capital of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any federal or state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any federal or state securities law in connection with the offering covered by such registration statement. (c) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 4.6 (the "Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at its own expense, provided, that that an Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnifying Party, to the extent that representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflict of interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding, and provided further that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 4 unless such failure resulted in actual material detriment to the Indemnifying Party. No Indemnifying Party, (i) in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation, or (ii) shall be liable for amounts paid in any settlement if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. (d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act in any case in which either (i) any Person exercising rights under this Agreement, or any controlling person of any such Person, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 4 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 4 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act may be required on the part of any such selling Person or any such controlling Person in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 4; then, and in each such case, Micron and such Person will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion so that such Person is responsible for the portion represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its Registrable Securities offered by and sold under the registration statement bears to the public offering price of all securities offered by and sold under such registration statement, and Micron and other selling Persons are responsible for the remaining portion; provided, however, that in any such case: (A) no such Person will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by such Person pursuant to such registration statement; and (B) no Person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any Person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 4.7 Issuances by Micron or Other Holders. As to each registration or distribution referred to in Sections 4.1 and 4.2, additional shares of the Common Stock to be sold for the account of Micron or other holders may be included therein, provided that the inclusion of such securities in such registration or distribution may be conditioned or restricted if, in the opinion of the Demand/Tranche Managing Underwriters, marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten. The Registration Expenses incurred by Micron, Intel Capital and any other holders participating in such registration or distribution shall be borne by Micron, Intel Capital and any other holders participating in such registration or distribution in proportion to the aggregate number of shares to be sold by Micron, Intel Capital and such other holders. 4.8 Information by Intel Capital. Intel Capital shall furnish to Micron such information regarding Intel Capital in the distribution of Registrable Securities proposed by Intel Capital as Micron may reasonably request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Section 4. 4.9 Market Standoff Agreements. (a) In connection with the public offering by Micron of any of its securities, Intel Capital agrees that, upon the request the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of Micron securities, Intel Capital shall agree in writing (the "Intel Capital Public Offering Lock Up") that neither Intel Capital (nor any Affiliate of Intel Capital) will, directly or indirectly, offer to sell, contract to sell, make any short sale of, or otherwise sell, dispose of, loan, gift, pledge or grant any options or rights with respect to, any securities of Micron (other than those included in such registration statement, if any) now or hereafter acquired by Intel Capital (or any Affiliate of Intel Capital) or with respect to which Intel Capital (or any Affiliate of Intel Capital) has or hereafter acquires the power of disposition without the prior written consent of Micron) and such underwriters for such period of time (not to exceed fourteen (14) days prior to the date such offering is expected to commence and ninety (90) days after the date of the final prospectus delivered to the underwriters for use in confirming sales in such offering) as may be requested by Micron and the underwriters, except that Intel Capital and its Affiliates shall be permitted to enter into transactions that have the effect of maintaining or continuing pre existing Hedging Transaction positions by continuing, renewing or replacing any such positions on substantially equivalent terms; provided, however, that in no event shall Intel Capital (or any Affiliate of Intel Capital) be required to enter into such an agreement more than once during any twelve (12) month period. Intel Capital agrees that Micron may instruct its transfer agent to place stop transfer notations in its records to enforce the provisions of the Intel Capital Public Offering Lock Up contained in this Section 4.9(a). (b) In connection with any proposed public offering by Intel Capital of any Registrable Securities, Micron agrees that, upon the request of Intel Capital or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of Intel Capital's securities, Micron shall agree in writing the ("Micron Public Offering Lock Up") that neither Micron (nor any Affiliate of Micron) will, directly or indirectly, offer to sell, contract to sell, make any short sale of, or otherwise sell, dispose of, loan, gift, pledge or grant any options or rights with respect to, any securities of Micron (other than those included in such registration statement, if any, or grants of stock options or issuances of Common Stock upon the exercise of outstanding stock options under Micron's existing employee benefit plans) now or hereafter acquired by Micron (or any Affiliate of Micron) or with respect to which Micron (or any Affiliate of Micron) has or hereafter acquires the power of disposition without the prior written consent of Intel Capital and such underwriters for such period of time (not to exceed fourteen (14) days prior to the date such offering is expected to commence and ninety (90) days) after the date of the final prospectus delivered to the underwriters for use in confirming sales in such offering) as may be requested by Intel Capital and the underwriters; provided, however, that neither Micron (nor any Affiliate of Micron) shall be bound by such Micron Public Offering Lock Up more than once during any 180 day period. 4.10 Termination.

Stover, Jr. Title: Vice President Title: Vice President and Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer [Signature Page to Securities Rights and Restrictions Agreement] EXHIBIT 3 THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS INSTRUMENT HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION. THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS INSTRUMENT ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER, INCLUDING ANY SALE, PLEDGE OR OTHER HYPOTHECATION, SET FORTH IN AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND INTEL CAPITAL CORPORATION, A COPY OF WHICH AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED AT NO COST BY WRITTEN REQUEST MADE BY THE HOLDER OF RECORD OF THIS INSTRUMENT TO THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY AT ITS PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICES. STOCK RIGHTS AGREEMENT This STOCK RIGHTS AGREEMENT is dated as of September 24, 2003 (this "Agreement") and entered into by and between Micron Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and Intel Capital Corporation, a Cayman Islands corporation ("Intel Capital"). All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Securities Purchase Agreement (as hereinafter defined). WHEREAS, pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 24, 2003 (the "Securities Purchase Agreement"), by and between the Company and Intel Capital, the Company is issuing and selling to Intel Capital, in consideration of the payment of four hundred and forty nine million nine hundred and ninety nine thousand nine hundred and ninety eight dollars and five cents ($449,999,998.05), certain stock rights, which provide Intel Capital the right to acquire, for no additional consideration, shares of Common Stock of the Company; WHEREAS, the Company proposes to issue to Intel Capital certain rights (the "Rights") to purchase up to an aggregate of 33,860,045 shares (subject to adjustment as set forth in this Agreement) of Common Stock (the shares of Common Stock and other securities issuable upon exercise of the Rights being referred to herein as the "Rights Shares"); WHEREAS, the term "Rights" hereunder shall also refer to any Additional Adjustment Rights (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), if any, issued by the Company pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement; and WHEREAS, the Company and Intel Capital are concurrently entering into a Securities Rights and Restrictions Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the "Rights and Restrictions Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company and Intel Capital have agreed, among other things, to certain rights and restrictions with respect to the transfer of the Rights and Rights Shares. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows: SECTION 1. Rights Certificates. The Company will issue and deliver to Intel Capital a certificate or certificates evidencing the Rights (the "Rights Certificates") pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement. Such certificate or certificates shall be substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit A attached hereto. Rights Certificates shall be dated the date of issuance by the Company. SECTION 2. Execution of Rights Certificates. Rights Certificates shall be signed on behalf of the Company by its Chief Executive Officer, President or a Vice President and attested by its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary. SECTION 3. Registration. The Company shall number and register the Rights Certificates in a register (the "Rights Register") as they are issued. The Company may deem and treat the registered holder(s) from time to time of the Rights Certificates (the "Holders") as the absolute owner(s) thereof (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by anyone) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. The Rights shall be registered initially in such name or names as Intel Capital shall designate. SECTION 4. Restrictions on Transfer; Registration of Transfers and Exchanges. Subject to any applicable conditions to transfer contained in the Securities Purchase Agreement or the Rights and Restrictions Agreement, the Company shall from time to time register the transfer of any outstanding Rights Certificates in the Rights Register to be maintained by the Company upon surrender of the Rights Certificates accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, duly executed by the registered holders thereof, the duly appointed legal representative thereof or a duly authorized attorney. Upon any such registration of transfer, a new Rights Certificate shall be issued to the transferee holder(s) and the surrendered Rights Certificate shall be canceled and disposed of by the Company. Except as provided in the immediately following sentence, no person or entity holding Rights may transfer, sell, assign, devise or bequeath any of such holder's interest in his, her or its Rights, and the Company shall not register the transfer of such Rights, whether by sale, assignment, gift, devise, bequest, appointment or otherwise, except to a Permitted Transferee (as defined below) of such holder. Upon the transfer by any holder of a Right to a person or entity who is not a Permitted Transferee, then such Right shall automatically be exchanged or converted for shares of Common Stock at the then effective Exchange Ratio. For purposes of this Section 4, the term "Permitted Transferee" shall mean (i) the Company, (ii) a Qualified Subsidiary (provided that if at any time such Qualified Subsidiary ceases to be a Qualified Subsidiary such Rights will automatically convert into Common Stock), (iii) Intel Capital or (iv) Intel Corporation, a Delaware corporation and parent of Intel Capital. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the transfer agent shall not be required to register the transfer of such Rights or the Common Stock into which they are automatically exchanged unless concurrently with such transfer the certificate representing such Rights to be so transferred shall be surrendered and exchanged for a certificate representing the applicable number of shares of Common Stock into which such Rights are automatically exchanged by virtue of such transfer. Subject to Section 4.10 of the Securities Purchase Agreement, nothing in this Section 4 shall be construed to prohibit Hedging Transactions (as defined in the Rights and Restrictions Agreement) with respect to securities of Micron provided that such transactions do not result in non-compliance with the foregoing restrictions insofar such provisions relate to, and are limited in their application to, the Transaction Related Securities (as defined in the Rights and Restrictions Agreement). SECTION 5. Exercise of Rights. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each holder of a Rights Certificate shall have the right, which may be exercised commencing the date hereof and until 5:00 p.m., California time, on December 31, 2063 (the "Expiration Date") to receive from the Company the number of fully paid and nonassessable Rights Shares (and such other consideration) which the holder may at the time be entitled to receive on exercise of such Rights. Any Rights not exercised prior to 5:00 p.m., California time, on the Expiration Date shall become void and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under this Agreement shall cease as of such time. The amounts payable to the Company under the Securities Purchase Agreement shall be the exercise price of the Rights, and no additional consideration is payable upon exercise of the Rights. Rights may be exercised upon surrender to the Company at its office designated for such purpose (as provided in Section 12 hereof) of the Rights Certificate or Certificates to be exercised with the exercise notice attached thereto duly filled in and signed. Subject to the provisions of Section 7 hereof, upon such surrender of Rights Certificates in accordance with the terms hereof, the Company shall issue and cause to be delivered, as promptly as practicable, to or upon the written order of the holder and in such name or names as such holder may designate a certificate or certificates for the number of full Rights Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Rights (and such other consideration as may be deliverable upon exercise of such Rights) and cash for fractional Rights Shares as provided in Section 6 hereof. The certificate or certificates for such Rights Shares shall be deemed to have been issued and the person so named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Rights Shares as of the date of the surrender of such Rights, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate or certificates for Rights Shares (the "Exercise Date"). Each Rights Certificate shall be exercisable, at the election of the holder thereof, either in full or from time to time in part. In the event that a Rights Certificate is exercised in respect of fewer than all of the Rights Shares issuable on such exercise at any time prior to the date of expiration of the Rights, a new certificate evidencing the remaining Rights will be issued and delivered pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5 and Section 2 hereof. All Rights Certificates surrendered upon exercise of Rights shall be canceled and disposed of by the Company. The Company shall keep copies of this Agreement and any notices given or received hereunder available for inspection by the holders during normal business hours at its office. Notwithstanding the above, Rights may not be exercised for Common Stock unless and until the holder shall submit to the Company either evidence of compliance with the filing requirements of the HSR Act or a certificate of an officer of the holder to the effect that the acquisition of Common Stock upon exercise of the Rights does not require any filing under the HSR Act. In the event that a Qualified Subsidiary that is a holder of Rights ceases at any time to be a Qualified Subsidiary, the Rights so held shall represent only the right to receive the Common Stock in to which they are exchangeable, and the Company shall deliver the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exchange thereof upon (i) surrender of the Rights Certificates to the Company, (ii) if required, the holder furnishing appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and (iii) if required by Section 7, payment of all transfer and similar taxes if the shares of Common Stock are not being issued to the holder. SECTION 6. Number of Rights; Adjustments to Rights; Dividends; Fractional Rights Shares. (a) Exchange Ratio. Each Right represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock, as adjusted in the manner provided below ("Exchange Ratio"). (b) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of Rights. In lieu of any fractional shares to which the holder would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall pay cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then fair market value of one share of Common Stock, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors. The Company shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, cause its transfer agent to issue and deliver at such office to such holder of Rights Certificates or to such holder's nominee or nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder or such holder's nominee shall be entitled as aforesaid, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share. The person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion, exchange or exercise of Rights shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on the Exercise Date. (c) Adjustment for Stock Splits, etc. In case of any subdivision (by stock split, stock dividend or otherwise) of the Common Stock, the Exchange Ratio shall be proportionately increased, and conversely in the case of combination of the Common Stock (by reverse stock split or otherwise), the Exchange Ratio shall be proportionately decreased, with such adjustment to the Exchange Ratio to be effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the day which such subdivision or combination, as the case may be, becomes effective. In case of any reorganization, reclassification or change of shares of the Common Stock (other than a change in par value or from par value to no par value as a result of a subdivision or combination), or in the case of any consolidation of the Company with one or more corporations or a merger of the Company with another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the resulting or surviving corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or change of outstanding shares of Common Stock), provision shall be made so that each holder of a Right shall have the right at any time thereafter as nearly as practicable, so long as the exercise or exchange rights hereunder with respect thereto would exist had such event not occurred, to exercise or exchange such Right into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and properties (including cash) receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification, change, consolidation or merger by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Rights might have been converted immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification, change, consolidation or merger. In the event of such a reorganization, reclassification, change, consolidation or merger, effective provision shall be made in the certificate of incorporation of the resulting or surviving corporation or otherwise for the protection of the conversion, exercise or exchange rights of the holders of Rights that shall be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, to any such other shares of stock and other securities and property (including cash) deliverable upon exercise of the Rights that might have been issued immediately prior to such event. (d) Dividends. In the event that the Company declares a dividend or other distribution in respect of its Common Stock (other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock), the holders of Rights hereunder shall be entitled to receive such dividend or distribution as if the Rights had been exercised or converted immediately prior to the record date for such dividend or distribution. (e) Liquidation. In the event that the Company liquidates, dissolves or winds-up, the holders of Rights hereunder shall be entitled to receive such proceeds, securities or other property as if the Rights had been exercised or converted immediately prior to the date on which such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up is to take place. (f) Rights Certificates Following Adjustments. Irrespective of any adjustments in the number or kind of shares issuable upon the exercise or conversion of the Rights, Rights theretofore or thereafter issued may continue to express the same number and kind of shares as are stated in the Rights Certificate initially issuable pursuant to this Agreement. SECTION 7. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all documentary stamp taxes and other governmental charges (excluding all foreign, federal or state income, franchise, property, estate, inheritance, gift or similar taxes) in connection with the issuance or delivery of the Rights hereunder, as well as all such taxes attributable to the initial issuance or delivery of Rights Shares upon the exercise or exchange of Rights. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any subsequent transfer of the Rights or any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of Rights Shares in a name other than that in which the Rights to which such issuance relates were registered, and, if any such tax would otherwise be payable by the Company, no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issuance has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax, or it is established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company that any such tax has been paid. SECTION 8. No Redemption. The Rights shall not be redeemable. SECTION 9. Mutilated or Missing Rights Certificates. If a mutilated Rights Certificate is surrendered to the Company, or if the holder of a Rights Certificate claims and submits an affidavit or other evidence satisfactory to the Company to the effect that the Rights Certificate has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue a replacement Rights Certificate. If required by the Company, such holder must provide an indemnity bond, or other form of indemnity, sufficient in the judgment of the Company to protect the Company from any loss which it may suffer if a Rights Certificate is replaced. If Intel Capital or any other institutional holder (or nominee thereof) is the owner of any such lost, stolen or destroyed Rights Certificate, then the affidavit of an authorized officer of such owner, setting forth the fact of loss, theft or destruction and of its ownership of the Rights Certificate at the time of such loss, theft or destruction shall be accepted as satisfactory evidence thereof, and no further indemnity shall be required as a condition to the execution and delivery of a new Rights Certificate other than the unsecured written agreement of such owner to indemnify the Company from any loss which it may suffer if a Rights Certificate is replaced. SECTION 10. Reservation of Rights Shares. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, for the purpose of enabling it to satisfy any obligation to issue Rights Shares upon exercise or exchange of Rights, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which may then be deliverable upon the exercise or exchange of all outstanding Rights. To the extent that the Rights Shares are listed on any national securities exchange, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all such securities issued or reserved for issuance to be listed on such exchange upon official notice of issuance. The Company or, if appointed, the transfer agent for the Common Stock and each transfer agent for any shares of the Company's capital stock issuable upon the exercise or exchange of any of the Rights (collectively, the "Transfer Agent") will be irrevocably authorized and directed at all times to reserve such number of authorized shares as shall be required for such purpose. The Company shall keep a copy of this Agreement on file with any such Transfer Agent. The Company will supply any such Transfer Agent with duly executed certificates for such purposes and will provide or otherwise make available all other consideration that may be deliverable upon exercise or exchange of the Rights. The Company will furnish any such Transfer Agent a copy of all notices of adjustments and certificates related thereto, transmitted to each holder pursuant to Section 11 or Section 12 hereof. The Company covenants that all Rights Shares and other capital stock issued upon exercise of Rights will, upon issuance thereof, be validly authorized and issued, fully paid, nonassessable, free of preemptive rights and free, subject to Section 7 hereof, from all taxes, liens, charges and security interests with respect to the issue thereof. SECTION 11. Notices to Rights Holders. Upon any event affecting the number of shares of Common Stock receivable upon exercise or exchange of Rights, the Company shall promptly thereafter give to each of the holders at its address appearing on the Rights Register written notice of such events and the effect thereof on the Rights and the Rights Shares in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11. Where appropriate, such notice may be given in advance and included as a part of the notice required to be mailed under the other provisions of this Section 11. The Company shall also provide notice to the holders of Rights of record dates or events with respect to which notice is given to other stockholders of the Company. Such notice shall be given at the same time as notice is given to other stockholders. The failure to give the notice required by this Section 11 or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of any distribution, right, option, rights, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up or the vote on any action. Nothing contained in this Agreement or in any Rights Certificate shall be construed as conferring upon the holders (prior to the exercise or exchange of such Rights) the right to vote, to consent or to receive notice as a stockholder in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of Directors of the Company or any other matter, or any rights whatsoever as stockholders of the Company; provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing provision is intended to detract from any rights explicitly granted to any holder hereunder. SECTION 12. Notices to the Company and Rights Holders. Except as may be otherwise provided herein, all notices, requests, waivers and other communications made pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered to the other party (a) in person; (b) by facsimile to the address and number set forth below, when promptly followed up by another of the delivery methods permitted by this Section 12; (c) by U.S. mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, postage prepaid and addressed to the other party as set forth below; or (d) by a national-recognized overnight delivery service that keeps records of deliveries and attempted deliveries (such as FedEx), postage prepaid, addressed to the parties as set forth below with next-business-day delivery guaranteed, provided that the sending party receives a confirmation of delivery from the delivery service provider.

Any amendment or waiver so given shall be binding on all holders.
