| (1) | SLS Spansion Holdings, LLC ("SLS Spansion") acquired the 9,231 shares reported herein (the "Securities") in exchange for the satisfaction of certain unsecured claims pursuant to the Second Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization dated April 7, 2010 (as amended) of the Issuer, Spansion Technology LLC, Spansion LLC, Cerium Laboratories LLC and Spansion International, Inc., under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (including all exhibits thereto, and as modified by the Confirmation Order entered by the Bankruptcy Court on April 16, 2010, the "Plan"). The Plan became effective on May 10, 2010. Pursuant to the Plan, the Issuer has reserved additional unregistered shares of its Class A Common Stock for future issuance to satisfy the allowed claims of certain creditors, as specified in the Plan, of which the Reporting Persons expect to receive a portion thereof as holders of allowed claims for the claims not satisfied pursuant to the distributions reported herein. |
| (2) | The Securities are directly owned by SLS Spansion. These Securities, together with the 5,328,559 shares previously reported, constitute approximately 20.5% of the Class A Common Stock of Spansion, Inc. based on the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of July 14, 2010 (25,982,753 shares), as represented by the Issuer. Silver Lake Sumeru Fund, L.P. (the "Sumeru Fund") is the managing member of SLS Spansion, and Silver Lake Technology Investors Sumeru, L.P. (the "Side Fund") is a member of SLS Spansion.

(the "Upper GP") is the sole general partner of the Lower GP. |
| (3) | As such, under Rule 16a-1(a)(2) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the Securities may also be deemed to be beneficially owned by: (i) the Sumeru Fund and the Side Fund as members of SLS Spansion; (ii) the Lower GP, as the sole general partner of the Sumeru Fund and the Side Fund; and (iii) the Upper GP, as the sole general partner of the Lower GP. However, pursuant to Rule 16a-1(a)(4) promulgated under the Exchange Act, each of the reporting persons (other than SLS Spansion) disclaims beneficial ownership of such Securities, except to the extent of its pecuniary interest. |
| (4) | In addition to the Securities reported herein, Silver Lake Credit Fund, L.P. (the "Credit Fund") and SL Capital Appreciation Fund, L.L.C. (the "Cap Appreciation Fund") also own 2,288,179 and 192,208 shares, respectively, of Spansion, Inc.'s Class A Common Stock. Silver Lake Group, L.L.C. ("SLG"), which is a managing member of the Upper GP described above, is also the managing member of (i) the Cap Appreciation Fund and (ii) SLFA (GP), L.L.C., the general partner of Silver Lake Financial Associates, L.P., which is in turn the general partner of the Credit Fund. SLG disclaims any and all beneficial ownership of the shares disclosed herein, except to the extent of any pecuniary interest therein. |
