On May 6, 2011, Pixelworks, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement with Roth Capital Partners, LLC (the “Underwriter”) in connection with the offer and sale by the Company of 3,650,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a price to the public of $2.24 per share. The Company granted the Underwriter an option to purchase up to 547,500 additional shares of the Company’s common stock to cover over-allotments, which the Underwriter has not yet exercised. The option granted to the Underwriter to purchase additional shares of the Company’s common stock expires on June 5, 2011. The Company expects to receive net proceeds from this offering of approximately $7.3 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, a non-accountable expense reimbursement due from the Company to the Underwriter, and other estimated transaction expenses payable by the Company of approximately $0.9 million. The shares are being offered and sold under a prospectus supplement and related prospectus filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on form S-3 (File No. 333-170768). The offering is expected to close on or about May 11, 2011, subject to the satisfaction of specified closing conditions.
