Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
The Development Agreement we entered into effective as of January 23, 2004 with Intel Corporation (“Intel”) was amended effective on July 17, 2006 (“Amended Development Agreement”). Under the terms of the Amended Development Agreement, most of the mutual obligations between us and Intel have been terminated. Most importantly, under the original Development Agreement Intel was to provide us with up to a total of $20.0 million over a three-year period to accelerate the development of production-worthy extreme ultraviolet (“EUV”) lithography light sources. As of the date of the amendment, we had received a total of $8.5 million from Intel under the original Development Agreement which includes an advance payment of $1.3 million paid by Intel at the initiation of the agreement in 2004. Under the Amended Development Agreement, Intel has no obligation to provide us with further funding beyond that already received and we will return to Intel $347,222 which represents the unearned portion of the advance payment made by Intel. Although we will receive no additional funding from Intel under the Amended Development Agreement, we intend to continue to develop the EUV technology as part of our existing product roadmap. In addition, per the terms of the Amended Development Agreement, we will continue meeting with Intel on a regular basis to review our progress towards developing a production-worthy EUV source system.
