This Amendment No. 1 to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (this “Amendment”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 15, 2008, amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed on August 15, 2008 (which, together with any amendments and supplements hereto, collectively constitute the “Schedule TO”) and relates to the offer by Copper Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Purchaser”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of Cypress Semiconductor Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), to purchase all outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”), of Simtek Corporation, a Delaware corporation ( the “Company”), at a purchase price of $2.60 per Share net to the seller in cash without interest thereon, less any required withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated August 15, 2008 (which, together with any amendments and supplements thereto, collectively constitute the “Offer to Purchase”) and in the related Letter of Transmittal, copies of which are attached as Exhibits (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) to the Schedule TO (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto and the Offer to Purchase, collectively constitute the “Offer”). Capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Offer to Purchase.

The information in the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal is incorporated in this Amendment by reference to all of the applicable items in the Schedule TO, except that such information is hereby amended and supplemented to the extent specifically provided herein.

Items 8 and 11. Interest in Securities of the Subject Company; Additional Information.

Items 8 and 11 of the Schedule TO are hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

“The Offer expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Friday, September 12, 2008. The Depositary for the Offer has advised Parent and Purchaser that, as of such time, an aggregate of approximately 14,717,634 Shares (including 384,814 Shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures) were validly tendered into, and not withdrawn from, the Offer, representing approximately 83.91% of the outstanding Shares. Purchaser has accepted for payment all Shares that were validly tendered and not withdrawn, and payment will be made as promptly as practicable, in accordance with the terms of the Offer. The validly tendered and not withdrawn Shares (including Shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures), together with the 674,082 Shares that Parent already holds, represent approximately 87.75% of the outstanding Shares.

On September 15, 2008, Parent issued a press release announcing the results of the Offer as of the expiration of the Offer period and that the Shares validly tendered have been accepted for payment. Parent also announced that the Merger is expected to occur as soon as practicable. In order to complete the short-form merger under the DGCL, Parent and Purchaser intend to exercise their Top-Up Option under the Merger Agreement to purchase from the Company, at a price of $2.60 per Share, the number of newly issued Shares equal to the number of Shares that, when added to the number of Shares owned by Parent or Purchaser at the time of exercise of the Top-Up Option, constitutes more than 90% of the number of Shares that would be outstanding immediately after the issuance of all Shares pursuant to the Top-Up Option. In the Merger, each outstanding Share not tendered and accepted for payment in the Offer (other than Shares held by stockholders who have properly and validly exercised their statutory appraisal rights under Delaware law) will be converted into the right to receive $2.60 per Share, net to the seller in cash without interest thereon, less any required withholding taxes. The full text of the press release is filed as Exhibit (a)(5)(ii) hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.”

Item 12. Exhibits.

Item 12 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following exhibit:

“(a)(5)(ii) Press Release issued by Parent on September 15, 2008.”
