Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 10, 2012, Axcelis Technologies, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Axcelis Technologies CCS Corporation (collectively, “Axcelis” or the “Company”), agreed to further modify the terms of the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated April 25, 2011, currently providing for a $30 million line of credit (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) by entering into the Third Loan Modification Agreement dated as of September 10, 2012 (the “Third Modification Agreement”). The Company’s subsidiaries that guaranty the Revolving Credit Facility, Fusion Technology International, Inc., Fusion Investments, Inc., High Temperature Engineering Corporation and Axcelis Technologies (Israel), Inc., ratified their Guarantys in connection with the Third Modification Agreement.

The Third Modification Agreement revises the Company’s covenant regarding its minimum trailing six month Adjusted Net Income (as such capitalized term is defined in the agreement) to facilitate future availability.

All other material terms of the Revolving Credit Facility are unaffected by the Third Modification Agreement.
