  15. SEMI P10 Patent Review WG • P10 Patent Review Working Group reviewed over 80 patent and patent applications • 80 from Photronics, 4 from Toppan (formerly DuPont) • Review period: December 15, 2009 through June 2, 2010 (~14 WG meetings held via teleconference) • WG members comprised of P10 TF members and/or P10 users • Patent review working group discussed and analyzed: • Potential materiality of the Photronics and Toppan patents to the SEMI P10 standard NA Microlithography Report - December 2011

  16. P10 Patent Review WG Review Results • Of the 80 Photronics patents/patent applications, 10 were found to be potentially material and justified on technical grounds • Of the four (4) Toppan patent patents, three (3) were found to be potentially material and justified on technical grounds NA Microlithography Report - December 2011
