RECENT EVENTS: DEREGISTRATION

The Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-110903) (the "Registration Statement") of Genus, Inc., a California corporation ("Genus"), pertaining to the registration of 1,300,000 shares of Genus common stock, no par value per share ("Genus Common Stock"), to which this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates, was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 3, 2003.

AIXTRON AG, a company organized and existing under the laws of Germany ("AIXTRON") and Genus entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of July 1, 2004 (the "Merger Agreement"), pursuant to which, among other things, Genus would be merged with and into a California corporation, and each outstanding share of Genus Common Stock would be converted into the right to receive .51 AIXTRON American depositary shares, and cash in lieu of any fractional shares (these actions are collectively referred to as the "Merger").

On September 30, 2004, AIXTRON held an extraordinary general meeting at which AIXTRON shareholders approved the creation of authorized share capital in connection with the Merger. On March 10, 2005, Genus held a special meeting of shareholders at which Genus shareholders approved the Merger Agreement. The Merger became effective as specified in an Agreement of Merger filed with the Secretary of State of the State of California on March 10, 2005 (the "Effective Time").

As a result of the Merger, Genus has terminated all offerings of Genus Common Stock pursuant to its existing registration statements, including the Registration Statement. In accordance with an undertaking made by Genus in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any shares of Genus Common Stock which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, Genus hereby removes from registration all shares of Genus Common Stock registered under the Registration Statement which remain unsold as of the Effective Time.
