This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D amends and restates the Schedule
13D dated September 27, 1999 (as so amended, the "Schedule 13D").
ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER:
This statement on Schedule 13D relates to shares of Common Stock, par
value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Align-Rite
International, Inc., a California corporation (the "Issuer"). The
principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 2428 Ontario
Street, Burbank, California 91504.
ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND:
(a) This Schedule 13D is filed on behalf of (i) James L. Mac Donald,
and amends the Schedule 13G filings made by Mr. Mac Donald;
(ii) James L. Mac Donald and Robin A. Mac Donald, as trustees
under the Trust Agreement, dated November 17, 1983, for the
Mac Donald Family Trust (the "Trust"); and (iii) James L.
Mac Donald and Robin A. Mac Donald, as joint tenants
(collectively with Mr. Mac Donald and the Trust, the "Reporting
Person").
(b) The business address of the Reporting Person is c/o Align-Rite
International, Inc., 2428 Ontario Street, Burbank, California
91504.
(c) Mr. Mac Donald's present principal occupation is Chairman of the
Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of Align-Rite
International, Inc. Mrs. Mac Donald is not presently employed.
(d) The Reporting Person has not been convicted in a criminal
proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors)
during the last five years.
(e) The Reporting Person has not been a party to a civil proceeding
of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as
a result of which the Reporting Person 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 during the last five years.
(f) Mr. Mac Donald and Mrs. Mac Donald are citizens of the United
States of America.
ITEM 3. SOURCE OF FUNDS AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION:
The Trust acquired all of its shares of common stock of the Issuer by
transfer from Mr. Mac Donald. Mr. Mac Donald acquired his shares with
personal funds and by borrowing approximately $615,000 at the end of
July 1999 from Sanwa Bank of California in order to exercise his
options to purchase 100,000 shares of Common Stock and to pay taxes
that were withheld in connection with such option exercise. Mr. Mac
Donald purchased such 100,000 shares of Common Stock at the end of July
1999. Mr. and Mrs. Mac Donald acquired their 18,000 shares of Common
Stock, as joint tenants, with personal funds.
Page 5 of 9
<PAGE> 6
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION:
On September 15, 1999, the Issuer, Photronics, Inc., a Connecticut
corporation ("Parent"), and AL Acquisition Corp., a California
corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"),
entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"),
attached hereto as Exhibit 2 and incorporated herein by reference,
where upon consummation of the transactions contemplated therein, the
Issuer will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. Concurrently
with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Mr. Mac Donald, the Trust
and Parent entered into a voting agreement. Such voting agreement was
amended and restated on October 26, 1999 to include the 18,000 shares
of Common Stock owned by Mr. and Mrs. Mac Donald as joint tenants (such
amended and restated voting agreement shall be referred to herein as
the "JM Voting Agreement"). The JM Voting Agreement is attached hereto
as Exhibit 3 and incorporated herein by reference. As inducement for,
and in consideration of, Parent's participation in the Merger
Agreement, the Reporting Person agreed to vote its shares in favor of
the Merger Agreement. In addition, the Reporting Person granted an
irrevocable proxy to certain officers of Parent and appointed such
officers as its attorney-in-fact to vote all the shares beneficially
owned by it in accordance with the provisions of the JM Voting
Agreement.
The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, for (a) the merger
of Merger Sub with and into the Issuer; (b) the continued existence of
the Issuer after such merger as the surviving corporation (the
"Surviving Corporation"); (c) the conversion of each share of common
stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub into one fully paid and
nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the
Surviving Corporation; (d) the cancellation of shares of common stock
of the Issuer owned by Parent, Merger Sub or any other subsidiary of
Parent; and (e) the conversion of each share of Common Stock of the
Issuer outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the
merger (other than shares to be canceled in accordance with the
preceding clause (d) and Dissenting Shares (as defined in the Merger
Agreement)) into a number of shares of common stock of Parent
determined by dividing $23.09 by the average of the daily average per
share high and low sales price of one share of common stock of Parent
for a 20-day period set forth in the Merger Agreement, subject to
certain limitations.
If the Merger Agreement is consummated as planned, the shares of Common
Stock of the Issuer will be deregistered under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and will cease to be
listed on the NASDAQ National Market System.
The Merger Agreement also contains certain arrangements with respect to
the charter documents, composition of the Board of Directors and
management of the Surviving Corporation.
Other than as described above and as contemplated by the Merger
Agreement and the JM Voting Agreement, the Reporting Person has no
plans or proposals which relate to, or may result in, any of the
matters listed in Items 4(a)-(j) of Schedule 13D (although the
Reporting Person reserves the right to develop such).

<PAGE> 7
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF ISSUER:
(a) The Trust beneficially owns 440,000 shares of the class of
securities identified pursuant to Item 1, equal to approximately 9.1%
of the outstanding securities of such class. Mr. and Mrs. Mac Donald
own, as joint tenants, 18,000 shares of the class of securities
identified pursuant to Item 1, equal to approximately 0.37% of the
outstanding securities of such class. Mr. Mac Donald beneficially owns
722,558 shares (the "Shares") of the class of securities identified
pursuant to Item 1, which amount includes the 440,000 shares owned by
the Trust of which Mr. Mac Donald is a trustee and the 18,000 shares
held in joint tenancy with Ms. Mac Donald. Mr. Mac Donald's 722,558
shares are equal to approximately 14.92% of the outstanding securities
of the class of securities identified pursuant to Item 1. Of Mr. Mac
Donald's 722,558 shares, 164,558 shares are in the form of options, all
of which are currently exercisable.
(b) Under the terms of the JM Voting Agreement, the Reporting
Person has agreed to vote or cause to be voted all the Shares in favor
of the transactions provided for or contemplated by the Merger
Agreement. Additionally, the Reporting Person has granted an
irrevocable proxy to certain officers of Parent to vote its Shares in
favor of any of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
Accordingly, the Reporting Person with respect to matters relating to
the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement may be deemed to
have acquired shared voting power with respect to the Shares.
(c) The information provided in Item 3 above is herein
incorporated by reference. During the last 60 days Mr. Mac Donald
exercised options to purchase 100,000 shares of Common Stock of the
Issuer, as described in Item 3 above. Mr. Mac Donald currently owns
these shares. Other than the transaction described in this paragraph
(c) of Item 5 and the transactions described in Item 4 above, the
Reporting Person has not effected any transactions for the securities
identified in this Item 5.
(d) The information provided in Item 4 is herein incorporated by
reference. Other than with respect to the agreements and transactions
described in Item 4 above, no person is known by the Reporting Person
to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of
dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Issuer's
securities identified in this Item 5.
(e) Not applicable.

any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation of the

insolvency, reorganization or
-2-
<PAGE> 3
other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and by general
equitable principles (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a
proceeding in equity or at law).
2.2. No Conflict. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement
nor the compliance with any of the provisions hereof by the Shareholder (a)

governmental entity, (b) results in a default (or an event which, with notice or
lapse of time or both, would become a default) or gives rise to any right of
termination by any third party, cancellation, amendment or acceleration under
any contract, agreement, instrument, commitment, arrangement or understanding,
or results in the creation of a security interest, lien, charge, encumbrance,
equity or claim with respect to any of the Shares, (c) requires any consent,
authorization or approval of any person other than a governmental entity which
has not been obtained, or (d) violates or conflicts with any order, writ,
injunction, decree or law applicable to the Shareholder or the Shares.
2.3. Ownership of Shares. The Shareholder is the record and beneficial
owner of the Shares free and clear of any security interests, liens, charges,
encumbrances, options, proxies, voting trusts or agreements or other
understandings, arrangements or other restrictions on the right to vote the
Shares. The Shareholder holds exclusive power to vote the Shares. The Shares
represent all of the shares of capital stock of the Company beneficially owned
by Shareholder entitling Shareholder to vote or give consent with respect to the
matters set forth in Section 1 hereof. For purposes of this Agreement,
"beneficially own" or "beneficially ownership" with respect to any securities
shall mean having "beneficial ownership" of such securities as determined
pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act and shall include securities
beneficially owned by all other persons with whom Shareholder would constitute a
"group" as discussed in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act.

warrants to the Shareholder as follows:
3.1. Binding Agreement. Parent is a corporation duly incorporated,

and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and
delivery of this Agreement and the Merger Agreement by Parent and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly
and validly authorized by the Board of Directors of Parent, and, no other
corporate proceedings on the part of Parent are necessary to authorize the
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Merger Agreement
by Parent and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby. Parent
has duly and validly executed this Agreement
-3-
<PAGE> 4
and this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Parent,
enforceable against Parent in accordance with its terms, except as such
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and
by general equitable principles (regardless of whether enforceability is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
3.2. No Conflict. Neither the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, the consummation by Parent of the transactions contemplated hereby,
nor the compliance by Parent with any of the provisions hereof will (a) conflict
with or result in a breach of any provision of its articles of incorporation or
by-laws, (b) require any consent, approval, authorization or permit of,
registration, declaration or filing (except for filings under the Exchange Act)
with, or notification to, any governmental entity, (c) result in a default (or
an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become a default) or
give rise to any right of termination by any third party, cancellation,
amendment or acceleration under any contract, agreement, instrument, commitment,
arrangement or understanding, (d) require any consent, authorization or approval
of any person other than a governmental entity, or (e) violate or conflict with
any order, writ, injunction, decree or law applicable to Parent.
4. Covenants of the Shareholder.
