Item 1.01.		ENTRY INTO MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

On September 5, 2006, upon recommendation from the Compensation Committee, the Board of Directors of Pixelworks, Inc. (“the Company”) amended the Company’s 2006 Senior Management Bonus Plan (“the Bonus Plan”). The amendment applies to certain senior and middle management (the “Participants”), but expressly does not apply to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Under the amended Bonus Plan, the Participants, other than the excluded officers, will have the opportunity to earn 16.7% of their target annual bonus based on the Company’s achievement of stated second half 2006 goals for Non-GAAP Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA). The bonus will be earned if the Company reaches non-GAAP EBITDA of $1,000,000 for the second half of 2006. The amendment offsets a reduction in the weighting of the pre-existing “Non-GAAP income (loss) before income taxes” goal in the Bonus Plan from 33.3% to 16.6%. No other provisions of the Bonus Plan were modified.

A copy of the Bonus Plan, as amended is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.
