1:35 pm PT Ultratech uncomfortable in confirming previous financial guidance; stock haltedþUTEK 20.94 -0.07: -Update- Co says that at this point in the quarter, it is dealing with the usual impact of non-linearity in installation and acceptance of systems affecting visibility for financial guidance.

In the advanced packaging area, the ramifications of political events in Taiwan appear to indicate some pushouts of delivery dates beyond Q3, although this is not certain. Co says it is uncomfortable in confirming previous financial guidance, but that does not feel that a revision in that guidance is warranted.

| 1:19 pm PT Sirenza Micro announces accelerated vesting of optionsþSMDI 3.04 -0.11:Co approves the accelerated vesting of certain unvested and "out-of-the-money" stock options issued on October 22, 2004 to current employees and executive officers. Members of the Board, including C.E.O. Robert Van Buskirk, did not receive any acceleration of vesting as part of this action. As a result of the vesting acceleration, options to purchase 590,000 shares at an exercise price of $4.58 have become immediately exercisable. These options would otherwise have vested in annual and monthly increments through 2008. Co says this is being done to reduce compensation expense that might be recorded in future periods under FASB 123(R).
