(1)           Plus such additional number of shares as may be required in the event of a stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or other similar event in accordance with Rule 416 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

(2)           Pursuant to the terms of the Cabot Microelectronics Corporation 2012 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the number of shares of our Common Stock, $.001 par value (“Common Stock”) reserved for issuance under the Plan is 2,901,360 (adjusted as detailed below), plus any shares that are or become available for issuance under the Second Amended and Restated Cabot Microelectronics Corporation 2000 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Previous Plan”) following March 6, 2012, which was the date on which our stockholders approved the Plan.  This Registration Statement registers additional shares of our Common Stock available for issuance under the Previous Plan, for which Registration Statement No. 333-123692 is currently effective.  Therefore, in addition to the 2,901,360 shares of our Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan, 2,033,084 shares of our Common Stock (as detailed below) plus the shares subject to outstanding awards under the Previous Plan as of March 6, 2012 that expire or are forfeited, cancelled, surrendered or terminated without issuance of shares will be available for future issuance under the Plan.  All new awards will be granted under the Plan.

(3)           As required by the terms of the Plan, the aggregate number of shares of our Common Stock reserved for issuance and delivery under the Plan was adjusted on March 2, 2012 from 2,000,000 to 2,901,360 as a result of the leveraged recapitalization of our Company via a special cash dividend to our stockholders of $15 per share, which was paid on March 1, 2012.  The Plan required the adjustment regardless of whether the leveraged recapitalization via the special cash dividend occurred prior to or after our stockholders’ approval of the Plan, which approval occurred on March 6, 2012.

(4)           As required by the terms of the Previous Plan, the aggregate number of shares of our Common Stock remaining available for future issuance under the Previous Plan was adjusted on March 2, 2012 from 1,401,470 to 2,033,084 as a result of the leveraged recapitalization of our Company via the special cash dividend to our stockholders of $15 per share.

(5)           Estimated solely for the purposes of determining the registration fee pursuant to Rules 457(c) and 457(h) of the Securities Act and based on the average of the high and low prices of a share of our Common Stock as reported on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on March 6, 2012.
