2 Requirements of each technology node Building a Fab is expensive, complex and requires experience. Operating the technology within the Fab requires even more experience. Technology Value Cost Technology nodes in China Wafer Capacit ty (normalized) 300mm 200mm <150mm 45nm 65nm 90nm 130nm 180nm 0.25µm 0.35µm 0.5µm 0.75µm 1µm 2µm Most China Manufacturers are Focused on Value and Cost P. 2

3 Extending 200mm equipment across technology nodes CMP 372/ /776 Metal (tungsten) Oxide M2i, M2000, Inline PVD Metal Sputtering Same 200mm platforms also widely used beyond traditional chip manufacturing MEMS LED SOI wafer manufacturing Labs in R&D Institutions and Universities Concept one, C2 SEQUEL C2 SEQUEL EXPRESS Barrier Stressed Nitrides ARL, AHM Passivation TEOS CMP- 372/472/676/776 Cu W P. 3

4 Challenges for Reused Tool Users Unpredictability of costs Obsolescence Technical support availability Capability/quality of used tools Options for extendibility Supply of quality spares IP concerns >75% of all worldwide Fabs were built before 2001 and these are the primary source for China fabs today >85% of all 200mm tools in China were manufactured prior to 2005 Understanding the hidden cost associated with reused tools is the key to successfully adopt and implement reused tools in production line P. 4

5 Novellus is Helping to Manage Risks Partnering with 3 rd party companies Current Relationship Fab New Relationship Fab Licensed 3 rd Parties & Refurbishment Partners OEMs 3 rd Parties Novellus Separation of OEM & 3 rd parties wastes time, energy & money for the Fab Lower cost of engineering Products tailored to Fab needs OEM safety and quality standards Customer maintains relationship with 3 rd party P. 5

6 Novellus is Helping to Manage Risk Taking the risk out of buying used tools with multiple options Classic TM Broker / Unlicensed Refurb Core NEW USED New Process Kit YES NO Safety Upgrades YES NO OEM Parts YES NO Factory Test YES NO OEM Warranty & Support YES NO S/W License & IP Control YES NO Options YES NO Capital Cost MODERATE LOW Start Up OpEx (Hiddent Cost) 0 HIGH Total Cost MODERATE MODERATE In 2006 Novellus launched the Classic TM as a lower cost alternative to new tools. Cost is not competitive with 3 rd parties but offers the lowest risk and highest performance. P. 6
