Item 1.02  Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
            On October 29, 2010, Solar Thin Films, Inc. (the “Company”) notified BudaSolar Technologies, Inc. (“BudaSolar” that, after long and careful deliberations we decided not to proceed with the acquisition of BudaSolar and terminated the May 17, 2010 Share Purchase Agreement with BudaSolar. By letter dated November 3, 2010 BudaSolar has accepted our decision. We continue to hold BudaSolar, its management and its personnel in the highest regard.  We intend to continue our pursuit of new business opportunities involving BudaSolar in joint ventures or other strategic relationships. We also report the successful collaboration between Solar Thin Films, Kraft Elektronikai, Zrt. and BudaSolar Technologies in completing the Grupo Unisolar factory in Bejar, Spain , which Grupo Unisolar, S.A. has accepted as fully complete.
 
Item 3.03:  Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
 
On November 8, 1010 we filed a Certificate of Decrease reducing the allocation of Series B-1 Preferred Stock from one million (1,000,000) to nine hundred thousand (900,000) shares. A copy of the filed   Certificate of Decrease is attached hereto as exhibit 99.1.  Concurrently, we filed a Certificate of Designation of Rights and Preference for our new Series C Preferred stock.  This series consists of 100,000 shares.  The rights and preferences of this Series are set forth in the Certificate of Designation of Rights and Preferences of the Series C Preferred Stock , a copy of which is attached hereto as exhibit 99.2 and incorporated herein by reference.
 
Item 8.01:  Other Events
 
We have decided to shift our focus from turnkey factory sales in foreign markets through our Hungarian manufacturing business to concentrate on establishing and managing solar farms throughout the United States and Canada.  Accordingly, we are in the process of winding down the affairs of our Kraft Elektronikai, Zrt. subsidiary, which is insolvent.  Kraft, together with BudaSolar, will still cooperate with the Grupo Unisolar, S.A. agreement by assisting in its pending I.E.C. and U.L. certification applications for its modules.  We have prepaid for €718,000 of finished, certified Grupo modules.  We expect to work closely with Grupo Unisolar, S.A. in developing solar farms, new products, more production capacity and new marketing opportunities in the future.
 
The parties to the Atlantis Solar, LLC Stock Purchase Agreement never consummated its terms and are now in litigation. We believe that we have meritorious defenses and will vigorously defend the case.  We also believe that the case is largely frivolous and that any non-frivolous claims advanced by the sole owner and employee of Atlantis Solar are too small to have any material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company.
