Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On July 28, 2005, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Mattson Technology, Inc. (the “Company”) declared a dividend distribution of one preferred stock purchase right (collectively, the “Rights”) for each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company to stockholders of record at the close of business on August 15, 2005. The description and terms of the Rights are set forth in a Rights Agreement between the Company and Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (the “Rights Agent”), as successor to Mellon Investor Services, LLC, dated July 28, 2005 (as amended from time to time, the “Rights Agreement”).
On May 5, 2015, the Company entered into Amendment No. 3 to Rights Agreement (the “Amendment”) to change the “Final Expiration Date” of the Rights Agreement from July 27, 2015 to May 5, 2015. As a result of the Amendment, effective as of the close of business on May 5, 2015, the Rights will expire and will no longer be outstanding and the Rights Agreement will terminate by its terms.
The Amendment is filed as an exhibit hereto and incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Amendment.
Item 3.03. Material Modifications to Rights of Security Holders.

Item 5.03. Amendments to Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
In connection with the adoption of the Rights Agreement, on August 2, 2005, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of the Terms of the Series A Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, setting forth the rights, powers and preferences of the Series A Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of the Rights (the “Preferred Shares”).
Following the expiration of the Rights and the termination of the Rights Agreement, the Company will file a Certificate of Elimination (the “Certificate of Elimination”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware eliminating the Preferred Shares and returning them to authorized but undesignated shares of the Company’s preferred stock.
The foregoing is a summary of the terms of the Certificate of Elimination. The summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Elimination, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
