			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear Stakeholder,</p>
<p>You have probably heard by now that Micralyne is experiencing difficulties in our business. We wish to provide you with an update at this time.</p>
<p>First, let us dismiss some of the rumors around the current situation. <strong>Micralyne is NOT bankrupt.</strong>  We have <strong>filed for creditor protection</strong> for a time to allow the Company to restructure, negotiate with existing creditors and renegotiate old uncompetitive contracts. In Canada, this step of the process is not as severe as Chapter 11 in the US. One of the main differences, is that in our case, <strong>the Board of Directors and management remain in control</strong> of the company,  its day to day business activity and future structure.</p>
<p>There are few factors that contributed to our current financial situation, but the main reason has been the loss of a major customer’s business.  We felt the full impact of the loss last year and this year we are in recovery.   We lost this customer’s business due to poor execution and lack of focus on their needs &#8211; issues we have addressed and changed in the last 2 years as evident by our current customers&#8217; reaction and our commitment to execution.   Since we addressed the root cause of the loss of this customer and now can re-negotiate those uncompetitive contracts, we are convinced that we will succeed in our restructuring and continue operation as a much stronger company.</p>
<p>Through this protection process and while this is a taxing time for our entire staff, we remain committed to our customers and it is “business as usual”.   We are cash flow positive and have the cash to pay all our business obligations moving forward; these obligations include but are not limited to: wages, benefits, suppliers, fees, rent…etc.   We are almost done with the restructuring and as of this week, we will pay a significant portion of our debt, which is a great leap forward towards exiting the creditor protection process. This has been a difficult but rewarding time as we experienced the positive reaction of our customers, partners and employees.</p>
<p>We are confident that we will grow out of this difficult time a stronger company in our market place. We want to thank you for your support and we promise to continue working to grow Micralyne to become the top MEMS provider creating brilliant solutions for you our customers today and tomorrow.</p>
<p>Best Regards,<br />
Micralyne Inc. Management</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Integrated approach mitigates risk, eases path to volume production</h2>
<p><strong>Edmonton, AB and Emeryville, CA &#8211; November 7, 2011</strong> &#8211; Micralyne, Inc., a leading pure-play <a href="/">MEMS foundry</a> serving high-performance biomedical, telecommunications and industrial markets, continues to expand the traditional role of foundry beyond manufacturing house. Today the company announced a partnership with Nanoshift, LLC, a product development firm specializing in emerging technologies, which places design, process development, fabrication and packaging under its purview. The more integrated approach to the design and production of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) reduces the barrier to entry for companies that want to commercialize MEMS devices for volume production.</p>
<p>“Micralyne’s partnership with Nanoshift strengthens our position as a one-stop shop for the design, prototype, fabrication and packaging of differentiated MEMS devices,” said <a href="/about/management/">Nancy Fares</a>, CEO of Micralyne. “Through our integrated approach, Nanoshift is no longer a third-party supplier; they are an essential part of a business process that we own, from start to finish. This business model addresses the most fundamental challenges of fabless companies. It minimizes risk and cost for customers who want to move beyond proof-of-concept to volume production—regardless of their expertise in MEMS.”</p>
<p>“Nanoshift’s relationship with Micralyne supports the spirit of innovation by streamlining the process of getting a MEMS device to market,” said Salah Uddin, Co-founder of Nanoshift. “This integrated model removes the ‘fear factor’ in moving IP through prototype, design and production. Technology transfers are no longer hand-offs; they are integral steps in a carefully articulated business process. And customers work with a central project manager—rather than a handful, which eases communication during each phase of the process. This unified approach improves quality and speeds design-to-delivery over piecemeal solutions.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Fares invited to participate in largest diplomatic gathering in California since 1945</h3>
<p><strong>EDMONTON, Alberta </strong>-  Nancy Fares is a rarity in the highest technology circles. Holding an undergraduate degree in electrical engineering, an MBA and a Master’s in Science in Telecommunication, Fares has parlayed a highly successful career at Texas Instruments to become president and CEO of Micralyne, one of the world’s leading foundries of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS). With a scant number of women heading technology companies—and an even smaller number working as CEO in the electronics industry—it should be no surprise that Fares was invited to join the delegation of Rona Ambrose, Minister of Public Works and Government Services and Minister for Status of Women, Canada, at the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Women and the Economy Summit in San Francisco this week.</p>
<p>“I feel truly honored to join the Canadian delegation of Minister Ambrose at the APEC Women and the Economy Summit,” said Nancy Fares, CEO, Micralyne, Inc. “I have long been passionate about the role of women in technology, and I believe in the importance of encouraging women to help lead the way in the economies of the world. The Summit provides a unique opportunity to bridge the divide of national boundary, of federal government and of commercial enterprise in pursuit of the greater good.”</p>
<p>Fares will participate in an invitation-only high-level policy dialogue, the outcome of which will be used to help determine the closing plenary on the “Inclusion of Women as an Economic Growth Strategy.”</p>
<p><strong>About APEC Women and the Economy Summit</strong></p>
<p>At the invitation of the United States State Department, the Bay Area Council has worked with the White House and executive branch agencies to assemble 150 meetings to address some of the most pressing challenges on the planet, including transportation, energy, health, the environment, technology and the empowerment of women. The conversations and policy-setting negotiations are part of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum, founded in 1989. The 21 countries or “economies” that will gather in San Francisco represent approximately 40 percent of the world’s population, approximately 54 percent of the global economy and about 44 percent of world trade. There will be approximately 3,000 delegates and 200 registered journalists.</p>
<p>Global leaders slated to attend include:</p>
<ul>
<li>U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton</li>
<li>U.S. Secretary of Energy Steven Chu</li>
<li>U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius</li>
<li>U.S. EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson</li>
<li>Ministers representing the 21 APEC countries including China, Japan, Russia, the Republic of Korea, Mexico, Vietnam and Australia</li>
</ul>
<p>The Summit will take place at the Westin St. Francis in San Francisco, CA, September 13-16, 2011. For more information, please visit: <a href="http://www.bayareacouncil.org/WES.php" target="_blank">http://www.bayareacouncil.org/WES.php</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Fifteen years ago creating a micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) device and taking it to market was not possible without a dedicated facility. This was the era of the integrated device manufacturer (IDM). Fabless MEMS companies were few and far between as the path to commercialization required enormous investments in time and money.<br />
A more mature MEMS supply chain has since evolved, and industry analysts say that fabless MEMS manufacturers accounted for 23.2 percent of total MEMS revenue in 2010, up from 21.3 percent four years ago.* </p>
<p><strong>About the Presentation</strong><br />
Nancy Fares, CEO of Micralyne, Inc., a leading pure-play MEMS foundry serving high-performance biomedical, telecommunications and industrial markets, will address the evolution of the fabless MEMS ecosystem, an advancement which has closed the competitive gap between IDMs and fabless companies. During her presentation, “From Prototyping to Volume Production—How the Fabless MEMS Ecosystem has Evolved,” Fares will share her vision of the future of MEMS manufacturing—and will address the ways in which fabless and “fab-lite” companies are competing with IDMs in sometimes surprising ways.
