To Our Stockholders:
We have mailed to you our proxy statement relating to our Annual Meeting of
Stockholders at the St. Regis Hotel, 2 East 55th Street, New York, New York
10022, which was held on Thursday, April 27, 2000 at 10:00 a.m., local time.
After the business discussed in the proxy statement was conducted, the
meeting was adjourned to 10:00 a.m., local time, on Thursday, May 25, 2000, at
One AMD Place, Sunnyvale, California 94088-3453 for the purpose of considering
and voting upon a proposal adopted by our board of directors to amend our
Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized
shares of Common Stock from 250,000,000 to 750,000,000 shares. The amendment
would provide the board of directors increased flexibility to issue shares for
various corporate purposes. In particular, in light of the significant rise in
the market price of our Common Stock, a number of individual investors are not
able to purchase round lots of our stock in the market. The amendment would
provide the board of directors with the ability to effect a stock split in the
form of a stock dividend, an action that would be significantly constrained
under our present Restated Certificate of Incorporation. However, our board of
directors has no present arrangements, agreements or plans to issue any of the
proposed additional authorized shares of Common Stock.
We are supplementing our proxy statement to provide you with additional
information regarding this proposal. The enclosed supplementary information is
important and we encourage you to give it your careful consideration.
In addition to the supplementary information, we are enclosing another proxy
card. Our stockholders of record at the close of business on February 28, 2000
are entitled to vote at the reconvened meeting and any adjournment or
postponement thereof. Since the majority of our outstanding shares must be
represented at the reconvened meeting to constitute a quorum, all stockholders
are urged either to attend the reconvened meeting or to vote by proxy.
Whether or not you expect to attend the reconvened meeting in person, please
complete, date, sign and promptly return the accompanying proxy card in the
enclosed postage-prepaid envelope.
By Order of the Board of Directors,
Thomas M. McCoy
Secretary
Looks like we are taking our first necessary step towards a split
