GSI Technology invites its stockholders to tender shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, for purchase by GSI at a price not greater than $6.70 per Share nor less than $6.50 per Share, net to the seller in cash.

– first, we will purchase all Shares properly tendered at or below the Final Purchase Price by any odd lot holder (holders of “odd lots” of less than 100 Shares);
– second, after the purchase of all of the Shares properly tendered at or below the Final Purchase Price and not properly withdrawn by odd lot holders, we will purchase all other Shares properly tendered at or below the Final Purchase Price on a pro rata basis.

Assuming that the Offer is fully subscribed, the aggregate purchase price of Shares purchased in the Offer will be $25 million. We expect that the maximum aggregate cost of these purchases, including all fees and expenses applicable to the Offer, will be approximately $425,000.
