Work was undertaken by Shawn Hailey and Kim Hailey. In [[1976]] AMD entered into a cross-licensing agreement with [[Intel]] granting them authorization to become a [[second source]]. The agreement granted each other the nonexclusive right to manufacture, use, and sell any product covered by any patents of the other party. Additionally the agreement released each other from any liability for past infringements. AMD paid Intel $325K ($25K during signing and $75K/year thereafter)<ref name=legal>{{cite book|last=Lennon|first=Michael|middle=J|year=2007|title=Drafting Technology Patent License Agreements|publisher=Aspen Publishers Online|pages=4-35 to 4-38|isbn=978-0735567481}}</ref>. The agreement was later expanded in [[1982]] which grew to incorporate the [[x86]] family of microprocessors and which later grew into legal dispute that lasted until [[1996]]<ref name=legal />. |
