Item 8.01. Other Events.
On July 11, 2006, KLA-Tencor Corporation and ADE Corporation issued a joint press release announcing that KLA-Tencor’s acquisition of ADE will be delayed pending approval from German antitrust authorities. The acquisition has already been cleared by the antitrust authorities in the United States and in all other applicable jurisdictions.
German authorities have notified KLA-Tencor that a Phase II investigation of the proposed acquisition of ADE by KLA-Tencor has begun. KLA-Tencor and ADE stated that they will continue to cooperate with the German authorities to facilitate a timely review. Both firms are confident that the acquisition will ultimately receive clearance.
The special meeting of ADE stockholders to consider the acquisition will be held as scheduled on July 13, 2006. Assuming that the acquisition receives stockholder approval, the parties anticipate that the acquisition will be completed once German antitrust clearance is obtained.

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and federal securities law. Such forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements.
