Item 48.01. ~~Changes~~Other ~~in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant~~Events.

On ~~September~~ January 2321, ~~2008~~ 2009, ~~the Board of Directors of~~ Ibis Technology Corporation (the “Company”) ~~was~~ ~~notified~~issued bya ~~KPMG,~~press ~~LLP~~release ~~(“KPMG”)~~announcing that ~~KPMG~~the Company had ~~resigned~~adjourned asits Special Meeting of Stockholders scheduled for such date and will reconvene on Friday, January 30, 2009 at 11:00 a.m. local time at the Company’s offices at 32 Cherry Hill ~~principal~~Drive, ~~accountants~~Danvers, Massachusetts. The meeting was adjourned a second time because the Company still had not received sufficient shareholder votes to act on the matters set forth in the Proxy Statement for such Special Meeting of Stockholders. A copy of this press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

The audit reports issued by KPMG on the Company’s financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007 did not contain any adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle, except as follows:

KPMG’s report on the financial statements of the Company as of and for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007 contained a separate paragraph stating that “the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan with regard to these matters, are discussed in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.”

Also, as discussed in Note 2(k) to the financial statements, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-based Payment, effective January 1, 2006.

During the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007, and the subsequent interim period through September 23, 2008, there were no disagreements with KPMG on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of KPMG, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with their opinion. During the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007, and the subsequent interim period through September 23, 2008, there were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, except for a material weakness related to maintaining effective policies and procedures to ensure a sufficiently detailed management review of the preliminary financial statements, as more fully described in Item 9A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Company believes that this material weakness was remediated as of June 30, 2008, as described in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2008.

The Company provided KPMG with a copy of the disclosure included in this Form 8-K and requested that KPMG furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission, stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Company herein. A letter from KPMG dated September 29, 2008 is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.
