MAXIM ANNOUNCES THE RESIGNATION OF MIKE BYRD AS A DIRECTOR

Sunnyvale, CA — August 29, 2007 — Maxim announced today the resignation of Mike Byrd from the Board of Directors for personal reasons. He will remain a consultant to the Company.

Commenting on the announcement, B.

Given the current options backdating environment, it is important that Maxim's shareholders know that Mr. Byrd's resignation in no way arises from any developments relating to Maxim's options investigation or the pending restatement.
