                     Summary Pro Forma Financial Information

The following Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements give effect
to the Company's sale of Systems Chemistry Incorporated described below.

On August 7, 1997 (the "Closing Date"), the Company completed the sale of
certain assets, net of liabilities assumed, of its wholly owned subsidiary,
Systems Chemistry Incorporated to British Oxygen Company ("BOC"), for a
negotiated sales price of $17.3 million before closing adjustments. The Company
received $15.8 million in cash after a holdback allowance of $1.5 million to
cover potential post closing working capital adjustments. In addition, the
Company received the proceeds from a $5.0 million subordinated, non-interest
bearing note due in August 2000. The Company applied $18.5 million, after
transaction costs and bank fees, to reduce the outstanding balance on its line
of credit.

The pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December
31, 1996 and the six months ended June 30, 1997 reflect the operations of the
Company as if the above disposition had occurred at the beginning of the periods
presented. The pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 1997 reflects
the financial position of the Company if the disposition had occurred as of June
30, 1997. The pro forma Consolidated Statements of Operations for each period
presented do not reflect the estimated gain on this sale of approximately $2.3
million.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are based upon
preliminary estimates, available information, and certain assumptions that
management deems appropriate. Management does not expect material changes to the
final transaction adjustments. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial
information presented herein is not necessarily indicative of the results of
operations or financial position that the Company would have obtained had such
events occurred at the beginning of the period, as assumed, or the future
results of the Company. The pro forma consolidated financial information should
be read in connection with the consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1996 and the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended June 30, 1997.

                          SUBMICRON SYSTEMS CORPORATION
         NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION


1.    HISTORICAL.

The historical balances represent the financial position and consolidated
results of operations of SubMicron Systems Corporation and were derived from the
respective financial statements for the indicated periods.

2.    DISPOSITION OF ASSETS OF SYSTEMS CHEMISTRY INCORPORATED.

On August 7, 1997, the Company completed the sale of certain assets, net of
liabilities assumed, of its wholly owned subsidiary, Systems Chemistry
Incorporated, for $17.3 million. The Company received $15.8 million in cash
after a holdback allowance of $1.5 million to cover potential post closing
working capital adjustments. In addition, the Company received the proceeds from
a $5.0 million subordinated, non-interest bearing note, due in August 2000. The
Company applied $18.5 million, after transaction costs and bank fees, to reduce
the outstanding balance on its line of credit. The Company estimates a gain on
the sale of approximately $2.3 million to be recorded in the third quarter of
1997.

The pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December
31, 1996 and the six months ended June 30, 1997 reflect the operations of the
Company as if the above disposition had occurred at the beginning of the periods
presented. The pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 1997 reflects
the financial position of the Company if the disposition had occurred as of June
30, 1997. The pro forma financial information presented is not necessarily
indicative of the financial position and results of operations that the Company
would have obtained had such events occurred at the beginning of the periods.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET ADJUSTMENTS

THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET AT JUNE 30, 1997 HAS BEEN
ADJUSTED TO REFLECT THE FOLLOWING:

(a)   All closing costs and associated liabilities paid, resulting from the
      transaction, were assumed to reduce the net proceeds received from the
      sale.

(b)   To reflect the net cash proceeds received from the sale applied to the
      outstanding line of credit.

(c)   To eliminate the assets sold by the Company and liabilities assumed by
      BOC.

(d)   To reflect the gain on the sale.

(e)   To reflect the present value of the $5 million non-interest bearing note,
      due in August 2000.


UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS ADJUSTMENTS

THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEAR ENDED
DECEMBER 31, 1996 HAS BEEN ADJUSTED TO REFLECT THE FOLLOWING:

(a)   To eliminate the operating results of Systems Chemistry Incorporated for
      the entire period presented.

(b)   To reduce interest expense attributable to decreased average outstanding
      line of credit borrowings from the application of the sale proceeds
      utilizing the weighted average interest rates in effect during the period,
      offset by imputed interest expense on the $5.0 million loan from BOC.
