AMD appoints Dasaradha Gude as Managing Director for AMD India

Bangalore, India. — August 25, 2008 — AMD (NYSE: AMD) today announced the appointment of Dasaradha Gude as the managing director for AMD India. Dasaradha Gude, (known as “GD”) is now responsible for AMD India R&D and overall India operations. As the lead for AMD India R&D, his responsibilities include in-region development and management of AMD’s broad and growing portfolio of consumer and commercial platforms and processors.

GD brings with him more than 25 years of experience in the Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) domain spanning various entrepreneurial roles and most recently as the managing director of the AMD R&D center, Hyderabad. In this role, he managed a talented team of engineers who delivered leading-edge technologies for AMD’s graphics and consumer electronics businesses. He was also instrumental in establishing AMD’s “Centre of Excellence for Audio Technology.” During the last 10 years GD has played a pioneering role in bringing VLSI design technologies to India with several successful entrepreneurial ventures to his credit.

This change is part of AMD’s recently announced commitment to re-architect its business for sustained profitability. AMD’s India engineering operations have now become part of the Central Engineering leadership team, recently created to direct the development and execution of AMD’s technology and product roadmaps in partnership with AMD’s business units. The Central Engineering team is co-led by veteran engineering executives Chekib Akrout and Jeff VerHeul, both of whom report to Dirk Meyer, AMD president and CEO.

“Placing experienced leaders in new, more focused roles will help enhance our execution and progress towards sustained profitability and long-term success,” said Jeff VerHeul, corporate vice president of Silicon Design Engineering at AMD. “GD’s new responsibilities form a critical part of our strategy to sustain AMD’s growth in the region. Going ahead, we see India playing a leading role towards strengthening the company’s existing technology leadership through the Indian engineering operations.”

Dasaradha Gude said, “AMD India has grown significantly since its inception and has turned out to be a critical contributor to the product roadmap of the company. The creation of a Centralized Engineering organization helps align and focus AMD’s world-class engineers and intellectual property portfolio on the strong business opportunities in front of us. We look forward to taking our engineering activities in India to greater heights.”
