About this Website

 

This website contains forward looking statements, including estimates, projections and pro forma information, which are included solely for the purpose of illustrating how the nominees plan to increase shareholder value so that you can cast an informed vote at the May 18, 2007 Special Meeting of Shareholders of Atmel Corporation (the “Company”). As you know, predictions of future results are inherently uncertain and future results may differ materially from those set forth in these forward looking statements. While these forward looking statements were prepared based on the best information available to George Perlegos and the nominees, they were not prepared with the benefit of access to the Company’s books and records and the accuracy and completeness of financial and other information obtained from publicly available sources and used in preparing these forward looking statements has not been independently verified. As a result, there can be no assurance that the estimates and assumptions underlying these forward looking statements conform to the current state of affairs at the Company, that the nominees, if elected and having the benefit of access to the Company’s books and records, will not determine that the best interests of shareholders require that modifications be made to the implementation of their plan to increase shareholder value or that the results or performance of the Company as a result of the implementation of the nominees’ plan to increase shareholder value, whether or not modified, will not differ materially from the forward looking statements contained in this website.

 

This website constitutes proxy solicitation material and is intended solely to inform shareholders so that they may cast an informed vote at the Special Meeting of Shareholders. Except as provided by the federal securities laws, this website may not be relied upon or used for any other purpose, including for purposes of making an investment decision with respect to the company’s securities.

 

Shareholders are advised to read the definitive proxy statement and other documents related to the solicitation of proxies filed by George Perlegos for use at the May 18, 2007 Special Meeting of Shareholders because they contain important information. The definitive proxy statement and a form of proxy have been mailed to shareholders of the company and, along with other relevant documents, are available at no charge at the Securities and Exchange Commission’s website at http://www.sec.gov, on this website or by contacting Mackenzie Partners, Inc. by telephone at (800) 322-2885 or by e-mail at proxy@mackenziepartners.com. Information relating to George Perlegos and the nominees, who are the participants in the proxy solicitation, is contained or referred to in the definitive proxy statement.
