(1)  In this press release, in addition to GAAP financial results, the      
     company has provided non-GAAP financial measures including non-GAAP    
     gross margin, non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP net income    
     (loss) and non-GAAP earnings (loss) per share. These non-GAAP financial
     measures reflect certain adjustments as presented in the tables in this
     press release. The company also provided Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP  
     free cash flow as supplemental measures of its performance. These items
     are defined in the footnotes to the selected corporate data tables     
     provided at the end of this press release. The company is providing    
     these financial measures because it believes this non-GAAP presentation
     makes it easier for investors to compare its operating results for     
     current and historical periods and also because the Company believes it
     assists investors in comparing the company's performance across        
     reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that it does
     not believe are indicative of its core operating performance and for   
     the other reasons described in the footnotes to the selected data      
     tables. Refer to corresponding tables at the end of this press release

          *  The  Company  presents  Adjusted  EBITDA  as  a  supplemental  measure  of        
            its  performance.  Adjusted  EBITDA  for  the  Company  is  determined  by          
            adjusting  operating  income  (loss)  for  depreciation  and  amortization,    
            employee  stock-based  compensation  expense  and  amortization  of                  
            acquired  intangible  assets.  In  addition,  the  Company  also  included        
            the  following  adjustments  for  the  indicated  periods:  for  the  fourth      
            quarter  of  2013,  the  Company  included  adjustments  for  net  legal              
            settlements;  for  the  third  quarter  of  2013,  the  Company  included            
            adjustments  for  net  restructuring  and  other  special  charges  (gains);    
            for  2013,  the  Company  included  adjustments  for  net  legal  settlements    
            and  net  restructuring  and  other  special  charges  (gains);  for  the            
            fourth  quarter  of  2012,  the  Company  included  adjustments  for  the            
            lower  of  cost  or  market  charge  (LCM  Charge)  related  to  GF  take-or-pay  
            obligation  and  net  restructuring  and  other  special  charges  (gains);      
            for  2012,  the  Company  included  adjustments  for  the  LCM  Charge,  a            
            charge  related  to  the  limited  waiver  of  exclusivity  from  GF,  net            
            legal  settlements,  net  restructuring  and  other  special  charges                
            (gains)  and  SeaMicro,  Inc  acquisition  costs.  The  Company  calculates      
            and  communicates  Adjusted  EBITDA  in  the  financial  schedules  because      
            the  Company's  management  believes  it  is  of  importance  to  investors        
            and  lenders  in  relation  to  its  overall  capital  structure  and  its            
            ability  to  borrow  additional  funds.  In  addition,  the  Company  presents  
            Adjusted  EBITDA  because  it  believes  this  measure  assists  investors  in  
            comparing  its  performance  across  reporting  periods  on  a  consistent        
            basis  by  excluding  items  that  the  Company  does  not  believe  are                
            indicative  of  its  core  operating  performance.  The  Company's                      
            calculation  of  Adjusted  EBITDA  may  or  may  not  be  consistent  with  the    
            calculation  of  this  measure  by  other  companies  in  the  same  industry.    
            Investors  should  not  view  Adjusted  EBITDA  as  an  alternative  to  the        
            GAAP  operating  measure  of  operating  income  (loss)  or  GAAP  liquidity      
            measures  of  cash  flows  from  operating,  investing  and  financing                
            activities.  In  addition,  Adjusted  EBITDA  does  not  take  into  account      
            changes  in  certain  assets  and  liabilities  as  well  as  interest  and          
            income  taxes  that  can  affect  cash  flows.                                                            
                                                                                                                                                        
          **  The  Company  also  presents  non-GAAP  free  cash  flow  in  the  earnings      
            release  as  a  supplemental  measure  of  its  performance.  Non-GAAP  free      
            cash  flow  is  determined  by  adjusting  GAAP  net  cash  provided  by  (used    
            in)  operating  activities  for  capital  expenditures.  The  Company                
            calculates  and  communicates  non-GAAP  free  cash  flow  in  the  financial    
            schedules  because  the  Company's  management  believes  it  is  of                    
            importance  to  investors  to  understand  the  nature  of  these  cash  flows.  
            The  Company's  calculation  of  non-GAAP  free  cash  flow  may  or  may  not      
            be  consistent  with  the  calculation  of  this  measure  by  other  companies  
            in  the  same  industry.  Investors  should  not  view  non-GAAP  free  cash        
            flow  as  an  alternative  to  GAAP  liquidity  measures  of  cash  flows  from    
            operating  activities.  The  Company  has  provided  reconciliations  within  
            the  press  release  and  financial  schedules  of  these  non-GAAP  financial  
            measures  to  the  most  directly  comparable  GAAP  financial  measures.
