Lithography Inspection & lab metrology IC design Reticle enhancement techniques Design verification In-Situ metrology Litho Value added by up/down stream feedback Value expansion with smart lithography GROWTH GROWTH GROWTH

#####

ASML to acquire Brion Technologies Brion is a venture-backed startup based in Santa Clara, California, founded in 2002 More than 120 employees 8 out of top 10 chip makers are Brion customers Brion is the largest, fastest growing pure-play in computational lithography Products include Litho Verification, Simulation and RET/OPC tools Technology transfers between companies will strengthen each others product lines, leading to significant customer value and business growth

#####

ASML long term growth outlook ASML is facing one of the most successful periods in the company's history Supported by a relatively stable market since the last down-turn in 2001-02, where ASML has increased YoY revenues, and that will be driven further by: Increased capex spending Increased spending share of lithography segment out of total capex Increased market share for ASML in all sub-segments And a broadening of scope, as ASML acquires hardware value expansion technologies and new product opportunities
