Item 1.01 Entry into Material Definitive Agreements.

On September 11, 2012, Aehr Test Systems (the "Company") entered into the Second Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the "Domestic Amendment") with Silicon Valley Bank (the "Lender") which amends the Loan and Security Agreement dated as of August 25, 2011 (as amended, the "Domestic Agreement") with Lender, and the Second Amendment to Export-Import Bank Loan and Security Agreement (the "Exim Amendment") with Lender which amends the Export-Import Bank Loan and Security Agreement dated as of August 25, 2011 (as amended, the "Exim Agreement" and together with the Domestic Agreement, the "Loan Agreements") with Lender.

Pursuant to the Domestic Amendment and the Exim Amendment, the Company increased its borrowing capacity under the Loan Agreements to allow the Company to borrow up to 80% of the facility amount of $3,125,000, or $2,500,000, under a revolving line of credit, subject to certain borrowing base formulas based on eligible domestic accounts receivable, eligible foreign accounts receivable and eligible export-related inventory. Additionally, the Exim Amendment amends when, subject to the terms of the Exim Agreement, the Company may request that Lender finance eligible export-related inventory.

In addition, pursuant to both the Domestic Amendment and the Exim Amendment, the definition of "Borrowing Base Eligible" was amended such that the Company will be deemed to be Borrowing Base Eligible in the event that is has net cash greater than $1,000,000 at all times during the previous month; provided that if the Company is transitioning from not being Borrowing Base Eligible to being Borrowing Base Eligible then prior to becoming Borrowing Base Eligible it must maintain such net cash amount for two consecutive months.
