<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Axcelis Technologies,&nbsp;Inc. (&#147;Axcelis&#148;)
and Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd. (&#147;SHI&#148;) each own 50% of the outstanding
common shares of SEN Corporation, an SHI and Axcelis Company (&#147;SEN&#148;), a
Japanese corporation which holds a license from Axcelis to make and sell
certain ion implanters in Japan. &#160;&#160;On February&nbsp;26,
2009, Axcelis, SHI and SEN entered into a Share Purchase Agreement pursuant to
which Axcelis will sell and SHI will buy all of Axcelis&#146; common shares in SEN
in exchange for a cash payment of 13 billion Yen (estimated at approximately
$133 million based on exchange rates as of the date of the agreement) on the
later of March&nbsp;31, 2009 or the date on which certain closing conditions are
satisfied (the &#147;Share Purchase Agreement&#148;). Royalties and commissions due from
SEN to Axcelis for the six month period ending March&nbsp;31, 2009 will also be
paid.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Share Purchase Agreement contemplates a
direct pay-off of the amounts due to U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee
(the &#147;Trustee&#148;), under the Indenture dated as of May&nbsp;2, 2006 (the &#147;Indenture&#148;)
relating to Axcelis&#146; 4.25% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes (the &#147;Notes&#148;).&#160; As an inducement to enter into the Share
Purchase Agreement, the Trustee has confirmed in writing (the &#147;Trustee Letter&#148;)
that a judgment will not be issued in the lawsuit commenced by the Trustee on
behalf of the holders of Notes against Axcelis in the United States District
Court for the Southern District of New York (Case Number 09CV657) until after April&nbsp;13,
2009.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In
connection with the closing under the Share Purchase Agreement, Axcelis and SEN
will enter into a License Agreement which will allow the two companies to
continue to use certain patents and technical information owned by the other to
make and sell ion implant systems on a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual
basis.&#160; Patents and technical information
developed by Axcelis for the Optima HD and Optima XE will not be licensed.&#160;&#160; The transaction will also terminate all
existing agreements among the three parties relating to the SEN joint
venture.&#160; The closing conditions include
the delivery of a reasonably equivalent value opinion from an independent firm,
officer&#146;s certificates and the absence of a material adverse change in the
business of Axcelis or SEN.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">There
can be no assurance that the closing under the Share Purchase Agreement will
occur by April&nbsp;13, 2009, or that, if it does not, the Trustee will not
pursue its rights and remedies under the Indenture thereafter.&#160; This description of the Share Purchase
Agreement and the Trustee Letter&#160; does
not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
Share Purchase Agreement and the Trustee Letter which are filed as Exhibits

<p style="line-height:normal;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">BEVERLY, Mass., February 26,
2009 &#150; Axcelis Technologies,&nbsp;Inc. (Nasdaq: ACLS) today announced that it
has entered into a Share Purchase Agreement in which Sumitomo Heavy Industries,
Ltd. (&#147;SHI&#148;)&#160; will purchase Axcelis&#146; 50%
interest in their joint venture, SEN Corporation, an SHI and Axcelis Company, (&#147;SEN&#148;),
for Y13 billion, or approximately $133 million, in cash at current conversion
rates.&#160; Axcelis and SHI each currently
own 50% of SEN, a Japanese company that is licensed by Axcelis to manufacture
and sell certain implant products in Japan.</font></p>

<p style="line-height:normal;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="line-height:normal;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">It is anticipated that the
transaction between Axcelis and SHI will be completed on March&nbsp;31,
2009.&#160; Axcelis will use a portion of the
proceeds from the sale of its SEN interests to meet its obligations under its
4.25% Convertible Senior Secured Subordinated Notes, which were due in
January.&#160; Pending the closing, the trustee
for the notes has agreed to stand down on litigation filed in connection with
Axcelis&#146; default on the notes.</font></p>

<p style="line-height:normal;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="line-height:normal;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Mary Puma, Chairman and CEO
of Axcelis, said: &#147;This transaction serves the best interests of Axcelis
shareholders as it enables us to fulfill our senior debt obligations and gives
us greater financial flexibility during this difficult economic climate and
semiconductor industry downturn. Axcelis will continue to fully focus its
efforts on tight cash and cost controls and on developing and selling innovative
products like our Optima implanters and Integra dry strip tools, both of which
have received strong customer reviews. With these products, Axcelis believes
that we can compete and gain market share once demand for semiconductor
equipment returns.&#148;</font></p>

<p style="line-height:normal;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="line-height:normal;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As part of the transaction,
at the closing Axcelis and SEN will enter into cross licenses that will allow
the two companies to continue to use certain patents and technical information
owned by the other to make and sell ion implant systems on a worldwide,
royalty-free, perpetual basis.&#160; Axcelis&#146;
license to SEN would not include patents, licenses, or technical information
developed by Axcelis for the Optima HD, Optima XE, or any non-implant products.&#160; The transaction will terminate all existing
agreements among Axcelis, SHI and SEN relating to the SEN joint venture.</font></p>
