Amendment No. 1

This Form 8-K/A is filed as an amendment (Amendment No. 1) to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Ultra Clean Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) under Items 1.01, 5.02 and 9.01 on May 17, 2005.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

      The information set forth in Item 5.02 is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.

      On May 17, 2005, the Company reported the appointment of Mr. Jack Sexton as Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. On June 21, 2005, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Ultra Clean Technology Systems and Service, Inc., entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Sexton. The term of the employment agreement is for two years and provides for a base salary of $200,000, an annual target bonus equal to 40% of his base salary and options to purchase 165,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. If Mr. Sexton is terminated during the term of the agreement by the Company without cause, or he resigns within 12 months after a change of control with good reason (as defined in the employment agreement), he is entitled to receive 12 months of base salary, health benefits under the Company’s health plan for 12 months (or, if earlier, until he becomes eligible for group health coverage with another employer) and 12 months of accelerated vesting of his stock options. If after a change of control he is terminated without cause or resigns with good reason during the year in which the change of control occurs, he will receive a pro rata portion of his annual bonus for that year. The terms of Mr. Sexton’s employment agreement are conditioned upon his execution of, and compliance with, the Company’s standard confidentiality and non-disclosure agreement.
