IM Flash Singapore LLP

IM Flash Singapore, LLP was formed in February 2007, by subsidiaries of Micron Technology, Inc. and Intel Corporation. The limited liability partnership will primarily manufacture NAND Flash memory - an increasingly important and fast-growing memory technology used in consumer electronics, removable storage and handheld communication devices. In February 2012, Intel Corporation (Nasdaq:INTC) and Micron Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq:MU), today announced that the companies have entered into agreements to expand their NAND Flash memory joint venture relationship. The agreements, which are designed to improve the flexibility and efficiency of the joint venture, include a NAND Flash supply agreement for Micron to supply NAND products to Intel and agreements for certain joint venture assets to be sold to Micron. Under terms of the agreement, Intel is selling its stake in two wafer factories in exchange for approximately $600 million—the approximate book value of Intel's share. Additionally, Intel will be receiving approximately half of the consideration in cash and the remaining amount will be deposited with Micron, which may be refunded or applied to Intel's future purchases under the NAND Flash supply agreement.
