(1)     Includes vested options to purchase 35,000 shares of Common Stock of CFM
        Technologies, Inc. ("CFM") Mr. McConnell has been the owner of more than
        10% of the outstanding shares of CFM Common Stock since CFM's initial
        public offering of its Common Stock on February 14, 1997. As an
        inducement to Mattson Technology, Inc. ("Mattson") to enter into the
        Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") dated as of June
        27, 2000 by and among, Mattson, CFM and M2C Acquisition Corporation
        ("Sub"), Mr. McConnell, Chairman of the Board of Directors of CFM ("Mr.
        McConnell") entered into a Voting Agreement (the "Voting Agreement")
        with Mattson pursuant to which Mr. McConnell irrevocably appointed
        Mattson and Brad Mattson (the "Proxyholders") as his lawful attorneys
        and proxies for certain matters relating to the Merger (as defined in
        the Merger Agreement). Such proxy gives the Proxyholders the limited
        right to vote all shares of Common Stock held by Mr. McConnell in favor
        of approval and adoption of the Merger Agreement, approval of the
        Merger, and approval of other actions contemplated by the Merger
        Agreement. Mattson's voting rights under the Voting Agreement are
        limited solely to certain matters related to the Merger, and Mattson has
        no economic interest in or affirmative dispositive power over the shares
        of Common Stock covered thereby.
