                                EXPLANATORY NOTE

     On July 26, 2006, Simtek Corporation (the "Company") filed a Form 8-K
reporting a planned restatement of certain of its financial statements. The Form
8-K reported that information under "Item 8.01 - Other Events." This amendment
is being filed to report the previously disclosed information under "Item 4.02 -
Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements."


Item 4.02   Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements

On March 24, 2006, the Company entered into a License and Development Agreement
with Cypress Semiconductor Corporation ("Cypress") as more fully described on
the Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
March 30, 2006. Under the terms of the License and Development Agreement,
Cypress is required to make certain non-refundable advance royalty payments to .
In its financial statements filed on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March
31, 2006, the Company recorded the $2,000,000 advance royalty payment received
from Cypress on March 24, 2006 as $965,000 for the value of the warrant issued
to Cypress to purchase 10 million shares of common stock of the Company and the
remaining $1,035,000 as unearned revenue on its consolidated balance sheet. The
Form 8-K filed by the Company on March 30, 2006 and the Company's Form 10-Q
filed on May 15, 2006 set forth more details regarding the transaction with
Cypress.

The Company has subsequently determined that it is appropriate to recognize the
non-refundable advance royalty payments under the License and Development
Agreement as royalty revenue upon receipt from Cypress. The Company will
therefore restate its consolidated financial statements as of and for the three
months ended March 31, 2006. As a result, total revenue for the three months
ended March 31, 2006 will be reported as $5,778,000 ($1,035,000 more than the
$4,743,000 previously reported) and net loss for such three months period will
be reported as $901,000 (rather than the $1,936,000 as previously reported). In
addition, total liabilities are reduced from $8,430,000 (as reported) to
$7,395,000; accumulated deficit is reduced from $48,127,000 (as reported) to
$47,092,000; and, total shareholders' equity is increased from $2,008,000 (as
reported) to $3,043,000.

On August 4, 2006, the Company filed an amendment to its Forms 10-Q for the
three months ended March 31, 2006, (the "Amendment"). The financial statements
for that three month period was restated in the Amendment. As a result of this
restatements, management has determined, as of August 4, 2006, the date the
Amendment was filed, that the financial statements contained in its
initially-filed Form 10-Q for this periods may no longer be relied upon.
Management has discussed with the Company's independent accountant the matters
leading to these restatements.

On December 11, 2006, the Company filed a Form 10-Q/A for the three months ended
March 31, 2006, further restating the financial statements for that period as
described in such Form 10-Q/A filed on December 11, 2006 and the Company's Form
8-K filed on December 7, 2006 (as amended by the Form 8-K/A filed on
December 29, 2006).
