+# License Agreement for amd_blobs Repository
+
+## Abstract
+
+AMD has generated a simpler and more flexible license agreement for using
+proprietary precompiled binary images. The new agreement is intended to cover
+all blobs in the directory structure below where the license resides and
+eliminates any unique agreements previously provided for individual products.
+
+A [3rdparty/amd_blobs](https://review.coreboot.org/admin/repos/amd_blobs) repo
+now exists for distributing new blobs to coreboot developers and consumers.
+Images for older products will be moved to amd_blobs as time permits.
+
+By cloning the amd_blobs repo, you will be agreeing to the license agreement
+contained there.
+
+## Text of License Agreement
+
+The language of the agreement is duplicated below for your reference. The
+official license agreement may be found inside the Git repository.
