Dhellman, I think this article expands on your comment. I believe that the AMD deal in half ownership of the fab would have made it an entity of FASL, but without AMD's part, FASL was not involved.

Terms of the companies' FASL agreement stipulate that neither company can compete with the joint venture, Greenagel said. Fujitsu owned the Gresham facility, but contracted it to serve as a foundry for FASL, Greenagel said. "All the flash memory that each company sells is produced by the joint venture," he added.

"We are now exploring whether it makes sense to expand the joint venture and have FASL take over the Gresham facility," Greenagel said. "It would make a cleaner, more streamlined way of operating to make it part of the joint venture."
