The information set forth in response to each separate Item shall
be deemed to be a response to all Items where such information is relevant.
ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER.
This Statement relates to the common stock, par value $0.001 per
share (the "Mattson Stock"), of Mattson Technology, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("Mattson"), whose principal executive offices are located at
2800 Bayview Drive, Fremont, California 94538.
ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.
(a) This Statement is filed by STEAG Electronic Systems AG ("SES")
and STEAG AG ("STEAG"). Each of SES and STEAG is organized under the laws
of the Federal Republic of Germany. SES is the direct holder of shares of
Mattson Stock. STEAG owns all of the capital stock of SES and, as a result,
is the indirect beneficial owner of the shares of Mattson Stock held
directly by SES.
(b) The business address of each of SES and STEAG is
Ruettenscheider Strasse 1-3, 45128 Essen, Germany.
(c) SES is engaged in the optical storage and photomask businesses
and, prior to the consummation of the transaction described in Item 3
below, was a supplier of capital equipment for the semiconductor industry.
STEAG is a power generation and electronics company.
(d) During the last five years, neither SES, STEAG nor, to the
best knowledge of each of SES and STEAG, any of the individuals referred to
in Schedule A, has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding
traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).
(e) During the last five years, neither SES, STEAG nor, to the
best knowledge of each of SES and STEAG, any of the individuals referred to
in Schedule A, has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such
proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining
future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to,
federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to
such laws.
(f) The name, citizenship, business address, principal occupation
or employment and certain other information relating to the executive
officers and directors of each of SES and STEAG are set forth on Schedule A
attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.
The shares of Mattson Stock to which this Statement relates were
acquired pursuant to the terms of the Strategic Business Combination
Agreement by and between SES and Mattson, dated as of June 27, 2000 (the
"Initial Combination Agreement"), as amended by the Amendment to Strategic
Business Combination Agreement dated as of December 15, 2000 (the
"Amendment" and together, the "Combination Agreement"). Pursuant to the
Combination Agreement, Mattson acquired eleven direct and indirect
subsidiaries of SES comprising the semiconductor equipment division of SES
(the "SES Semiconductor Division") in exchange for 11,850,000 newly issued
shares of Mattson Stock and a cash payment of $100,000 (the "Business
Combination"). The Combination Agreement also provided for Mattson to
assume certain obligations of SES and STEAG and to acquire certain
intercompany indebtedness owed by the SES Semiconductor Division to SES in
exchange for a secured promissory note in the principal amount of
$26,095,150.49. All references to, and summaries of, the Combination
Agreement in this Item 3 are qualified in their entirety by reference to
the Initial Combination Agreement and the Amendment, copies of which are
attached hereto as Exhibits 1 and 2, respectively, and are incorporated
herein by reference.
Mattson, SES, and the Chief Executive Officer of Mattson, Brad
Mattson, have also entered into a Stockholder Agreement dated as of
December 15, 2000 (the "Stockholder Agreement") providing for, among other
things, the expansion of Mattson's board of directors from five members to
seven, the election of two persons designated by SES to Mattson's board of
directors, restrictions on future acquisitions or dispositions of Mattson
Stock by SES and registration rights in favor of SES. All references to,
and summaries of, the Stockholder Agreement in this Item 3 are qualified in
their entirety by reference to such agreement, a copy of which is attached
hereto as Exhibit 3 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The obligation of each of SES and Mattson to consummate the
Business Combination was conditioned upon the simultaneous closing of the
transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger
Agreement") dated as of June 27, 2000 by and among Mattson, M2C Acquisition
Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of
Mattson ("M2C"), and CFM Technologies, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation
("CFM"). The Merger Agreement provided, among other things, for the merger
of M2C with and into CFM (the "Merger"), by virtue of which each
outstanding share of CFM common stock (other than shares as to which
dissenters' rights under Pennsylvania law are exercised) was automatically
converted into the right to receive .5223 shares of Mattson Stock. All
references to, and summaries of, the Merger Agreement in this Item 4 are
qualified in their entirety by reference to such agreement, a copy of which
has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as Exhibit 2 to
the filing by Mattson on Form 425 dated July 6, 2000 with respect to the
common stock of CFM and is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
The information set forth or incorporated by reference in Item 3
is incorporated by reference herein.
The shares of Mattson Stock to which this Statement relates were
acquired in connection with the disposition of the SES Semiconductor
Division pursuant to the terms of the Combination Agreement. Subject to the
terms of the Stockholder Agreement, SES and STEAG currently intend to hold
the shares of Mattson Stock for investment purposes.
The Stockholder Agreement provides that, until termination of such
agreement, Mattson's board of directors will consist of seven members, two
of whom are to be designated by SES, one of whom is to be the Chief
Executive Officer of Mattson, and (subject to certain exceptions) the
remaining four of whom will be Independent Directors (as defined in the
Stockholder Agreement). Pursuant to the Stockholder Agreement, effective as
of the closing of the Business Combination, Mattson caused (i) Dr. Jochen
Melchior and Dr. Hans-Georg Betz, as designees of SES, to become members of
the expanded board of directors and (ii) Dr. Melchior to be appointed as
Chairman of the Board for a term of one year.
Pursuant to the Stockholder Agreement, a Nominating Committee of
the board of directors has been established to propose nominees to succeed
any Independent Director or to fill any other vacancies not otherwise
provided for in the Stockholder Agreement. In addition, Mattson's board of
directors has established an Executive Staffing Committee consisting
initially of Dr. Melchior and Mr. Mattson to make key personnel decisions.
As required by the Stockholder Agreement, Mattson's Bylaws have
been amended and restated in accordance with the Stockholder Agreement in a
manner consistent with the foregoing arrangements.
Under the Stockholder Agreement, SES has agreed that, prior to the
earlier of the termination of the agreement or the expiration of five years
following the closing of the Business Combination (the "Standstill
Period"), neither SES nor any of its majority-owned and controlled
affiliates will acquire or make an offer to acquire any additional shares
of Mattson's voting stock unless (i) prior Disinterested Director Approval
(as defined in the Stockholder Agreement) of such acquisition has been
obtained, (ii) the acquisition is necessary to maintain SES's aggregate
percentage ownership of Mattson's outstanding voting stock, (iii) the
acquisition is pursuant to a stock issuance by Mattson in respect of a
stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar corporate
transaction or (iv) the acquisition is a transfer of voting stock between
SES and an affiliate that has agreed to be bound by the terms and
conditions of the Stockholder Agreement. Under the terms of the Stockholder
Agreement, SES is also prohibited, during the Standstill Period, from (i)
soliciting or participating in a solicitation of proxies for Mattson's
voting stock (except in connection with the election of directors), (ii)
making any public announcement regarding any Acquisition Proposal (as
defined in the Stockholder Agreement) not approved by Mattson's board of
directors, (iii) depositing any shares of voting stock in a voting trust or
similar arrangement with any person other than Mattson or a person within
SES's control group or (iv) forming or joining any group with any person
other than persons within SES's control group for the purpose of voting,
holding, purchasing or disposing of Mattson's voting stock.
The foregoing "standstill" restrictions will be suspended in the
event an unrelated person or group, without prior approval of the board of
directors of Mattson, (i) commences a tender offer, (ii) acquires voting
stock of Mattson resulting in beneficial ownership of more than 20% of the
then-outstanding voting stock or (iii) acquires beneficial ownership of
more than 10% of the then-outstanding voting stock and commences or
publicly announces its intention to seek a Change of Control (as defined in
the Stockholder Agreement).
The Stockholder Agreement also provides that, prior to any sale or
issuance by Mattson of any shares of its voting stock, SES will have a
preemptive right to purchase its proportionate share of such voting stock
on terms at least as favorable to SES as the terms on which Mattson
proposes to sell such stock to any other party. This preemptive right is
subject to certain exceptions, including (i) issuances of voting stock to
employees, officers, directors and consultants pursuant to any stock option
plan or agreement, (ii) issuances of voting stock in connection with
certain mergers, consolidations, share exchanges or other reorganizations
and (iii) issuances of limited amounts of voting stock in connection with
equipment financings, technology licensing, research and development
agreements or asset acquisitions approved by Mattson's board of directors.
SES's preemptive right will terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) the
closing of any Acquisition Transaction (as defined in the Stockholder
Agreement) resulting in a Change of Control of Mattson, (ii) the sale of
all or substantially all of Mattson's assets and (iii) the termination of
the Stockholder Agreement in accordance with its terms.
Under the Stockholder Agreement, SES has also agreed not to
transfer or dispose of any shares of Mattson's voting stock for a period of
one year following the closing of the Business Combination, except for
transfers made following Disinterested Director Approval and transfers to
affiliates of SES. In addition, SES has agreed that, following the one-year
lockup period, it will not transfer or dispose of any shares of Mattson's
voting stock without first giving Mattson an opportunity to purchase the
shares, unless such transfer or disposition by SES is made (i) pursuant to
a bona fide public offering, (ii) pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") or (iii) to an affiliate of
SES. Furthermore, SES has agreed not to sell or transfer more than 2.4
million shares of Mattson voting stock (subject to adjustment) to a person
or group following the one-year lockup period, except (i) pursuant to the
exceptions to Mattson's right of first refusal described above, (ii)
pursuant to a Change of Control transaction that has received either
Disinterested Director Approval or majority stockholder approval (excluding
SES), (iii) after the third anniversary of the closing of the Business
Combination or (iv) during suspension of the "standstill" provisions as
described above.
SES also has the right under the Stockholder Agreement following
the expiration of the one-year lockup period to include its shares of
Mattson Stock in a registration of common stock effected by Mattson under
the Securities Act and to request registration of its shares of Mattson
Stock on Form S-3 under the Securities Act once every 12 months, subject to
customary provisions regarding expenses, indemnification, reporting under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, assignment, market
"stand-off" agreements, termination of registration rights and limitations
on subsequent registration rights.
The Stockholder Agreement will terminate upon the earliest to
occur of (i) SES owning less than 20% of Mattson's outstanding voting
stock, (ii) SES owning 50% or more of Mattson's outstanding voting stock
and (iii) a material breach by Mattson of any material obligation under the
Stockholder Agreement.
All references to, and summaries of, the Stockholder Agreement in
this Item 4 are qualified in their entirety by references to such
agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3 and is
incorporated herein by reference.
Mr. Werner Brust-Haas has informed SES and STEAG that he acquired
beneficial ownership of his shares of Mattson Stock for investment
purposes.
Except as set forth above, neither SES, STEAG nor, to the best
knowledge of each of SES and STEAG, any of the individuals referred to in
Schedule A, has any plan or proposal with respect to any other matter set
forth in paragraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
(a) SES and STEAG each beneficially owns 11,850,000 shares of
Mattson Stock, which represents approximately 31.8% of the outstanding
shares of Mattson Stock based on an aggregate of 37,259,351 shares

rights); and (iii) 11,850,000 shares of Mattson Stock issued to SES upon
