Entegris, Inc. Revises Preliminary Results of Tender Offer

CHASKA (Minneapolis), Minn., June 11, 2007 – Entegris, Inc. (Nasdaq: ENTG) revised today its previously reported preliminary results of its modified “Dutch Auction” tender offer which expired at 11:59 p.m. ET, on Friday, June 8, 2007. Based on the preliminary count of the depositary, the Company now expects to accept for purchase approximately 21,332,874 of its common shares at a purchase price of $11.80 per share at a total cost of approximately $252 million.

The revision reflects the inclusion of common shares for which the depositary received notices of guaranteed delivery prior to the expiration of the offer. These shares were not originally reported in a summary provided to the Company by the depositary. Upon inclusion of these shares, approximately 21,332,874 common shares were properly tendered and not withdrawn at prices at or below the purchase price, based on the preliminary count of the depositary.

Shareholders who deposited common shares in the tender offer at or below the purchase price will have all of their tendered common shares purchased, subject to certain limited exceptions. The number of shares to be purchased and the purchase price per share are preliminary. Final results for the tender offer will be determined subject to confirmation by the depositary of the proper delivery of the shares validly tendered and not withdrawn. The actual number of shares to be purchased and the purchase price per share will be announced following the completion of the verification process. Payment for the shares accepted for purchase will occur promptly thereafter.

The number of shares the Company expects to purchase in the tender offer represents approximately 16% of its currently outstanding common shares. In the tender offer, the Company initially offered to purchase up to 20,408,163 of its common shares at a price between $11.00 and $12.25 per share, for a maximum aggregate repurchase price of up to $250 million. The 21,332,874 total common shares expected to be purchased in the tender offer includes 924,711 common shares pursuant to the Company’s right to purchase up to an additional 2% of its shares outstanding in the event more than 20.4 million shares were tendered without extending the offer.
