You're right and actually it's looser than that as it said there was no obligation but doesn't mean it can't. That is the 'or' clause that is applicable to this agreement I think.

(b) owns or controls (either directly or indirectly) either of the
following:

(1) if such entity has voting shares or other securities, at
least fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding shares or
securities entitled to vote for the election of
directors or similar managing authority and such entity
is under no obligation (contractual or otherwise) to
directly or indirectly distribute more than seventy
percent (70%) of its profits to a third party

neolib,

Re: "The above makes it look like AMD cannot receive MORE than 70% of the profits."

What happens if there are losses ... This has been the case for AMD's
most recent quarters, correct?
