     On August 30, 2006, Affymetrix, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it has completed its previously announced restatement of the Company’s financial statements. The restated financial statements have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in an amended Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2005 and an amended Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. The Company has also filed its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 which had been delayed due to the restatement. The Company is now current in its SEC reporting obligations under Section 13 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and, as a result, expects that the previously disclosed Nasdaq delisting action will be terminated and believes that the previously disclosed notice of default under the Company’s indenture has been cured.
