Item1.01.Amendment of a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June9, 2017, Lattice Semiconductor Corporation (Lattice),
Canyon Bridge Acquisition Company, Inc. (Canyon Bridge), and
Canyon Bridge Merger Sub, Inc. entered into an amendment to the
Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November3, 2016 (the
Merger Agreement), to which the parties agreed to withdraw and
re-file their joint voluntary notice to the Committee on Foreign
Investment in the United States (CFIUS) under the Defense
Production Act of 1950, as amended, to allow more time for review
and discussion with CFIUS in connection with the proposed merger
(the Merger) between Lattice and Canyon Bridge Merger Sub, Inc.,
and agreed to extend the outside date after which the Merger
Agreement may be terminated by either Lattice of Canyon Bridge if
the Merger has not become effective to September30, 2017, subject
to adjustment as described in the Merger Agreement. The above
summary of the amendment to the Merger Agreement is qualified in
its entirety by reference to the amendment, which is attached to
this Report as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated in this Item 1.01 by

Item8.01 Other Events

Lattice and Canyon Bridge Fund I, LP jointly withdrew and then
re-filed their joint voluntary notice to CFIUS under the Defense
Production Act of 1950, as amended. Once CFIUS accepts the joint
voluntary notice, it will commence a new 30-day period, which may
be followed by a 45-day investigation period.

Lattice and Canyon Bridge have been and will continue to be
actively engaged with CFIUS, and remain fully committed to the
Merger, which was approved by the holders of approximately 99.65%
of the Lattice shares voted on February28, 2017. There can be no
assurances, however, that CFIUS will ultimately agree that the
parties may proceed with the transaction, and, if CFIUS
ultimately makes a recommendation to prohibit or suspend the
transaction, as to whether the President will decide to prohibit
or suspend the transaction.
