Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 8, 2010, the Board of Directors of Mattson Technology (the "Company") adopted a new
form of indemnity agreement (the "Indemnity Agreement") which the Company expects to enter into with all
of its directors and executive officers. The Indemnity Agreement replaces a prior form of indemnity agreement that the
Company adopted in 1997.
The Indemnity Agreement provides, among other things, that subject to the procedures set forth in the
Indemnification Agreement: (i) the Company will indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate the Indemnitee (as defined in
the Indemnification Agreement) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and subject to certain limitations and
exceptions, in the event Indemnitee was, is or is threatened to be made a party to or a participant (as a witness or
otherwise) in a Proceeding (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement); (ii) if requested by Indemnitee, and subject to
certain exceptions, the Company will advance Expenses (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement) incurred in
connection with any Proceeding to the Indemnitee; and (iii) the rights of the Indemnitee under the Indemnification
Agreement are in addition to any other rights the Indemnitee may have under applicable law, the Company's articles of
incorporation or bylaws, or otherwise. The Indemnification Agreement also sets forth the procedures for determining
entitlement to indemnification, the requirements relating to notice and defense of claims for which indemnification is
sought, the procedures for enforcement of indemnification rights, the limitations on and exclusions from indemnification,
and the minimum levels of directors' and officers' liability insurance to be maintained by the Company.
The foregoing summary of the Indemnification Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the
Indemnification Agreement referenced as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
