Additionally, the third quarter net loss in the prior year reflected a $4.9 million loss on extinguishment of debt.

    			<description>  DayStar Technologies Announces Entry into $5 Million Securities Purchase Agreement and Additional Extinguishment of $3.6 Million in Debt      Strategic Partnership Discussions Continue   
    Milpitas, CA, February 3, 2011     &amp;ndash; DayStar Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: DSTI), a developer of solar photovoltaic products based on CIGS thin-film deposition technology,    today announced it has entered into a $5 million securities purchase agreement with Socius CG II, Ltd., a subsidiary of Socius Capital Group (&amp;ldquo;Socius&amp;rdquo;). Daystar also announced the additional extinguishment of debt in exchange for shares of common stock as the company continues to restructure its balance sheet and pursue a strategic partnership.    
  DayStar&amp;rsquo;s CEO, Magnus Ryde commented, &amp;ldquo;This flexible financing arrangement, with a proven partner in Socius Captial, will strengthen our balance sheet and will better position us as we continue our discussions with potential strategic partners. The partnerships we are pursuing, if consummated, could include joint ventures, licensing agreements, contract manufacturing agreements, a reverse merger with or an acquisition of DayStar.&amp;rdquo;  
  Under the agreement, Daystar has the right over a term of two years, subject to certain conditions, to require Socius to purchase up to $5 million of redeemable Series B Preferred Stock (the &amp;ldquo;Preferred Stock&amp;rdquo;).    With each purchase, Socius will receive two-year warrants to purchase shares of the company's common stock valued at 35% of the Preferred Stock amount. The exercise price of the warrants will equal the closing bid price of the company's common stock on the preceding day. In addition, Socius will be entitled to exercise an additional investment right for 60 days after each sale of Preferred Stock to purchase common stock valued at 100% of the amount of the Preferred Stock, at a per share price equal to the exercise price of the warrants associated with the sale of Preferred Stock.  
  DayStar also announced that it has extinguished an additional $3.6 million in debt from its balance sheet through the conversion to equity of certain convertible notes payable, as well as agreements with vendors to settle their liabilities in exchange for shares of DayStar&amp;rsquo;s common stock. DayStar CEO, Magnus Ryde, commented, &amp;ldquo;We are pleased to have eliminated another $3.6 million in debt from our balance sheet. We appreciate the continued support of our vendors and other stakeholders. We have nearly completed our balance sheet restructuring and other activities to enhance our ability to pursue strategic transactions.&amp;rdquo;  
  Details of the agreements with vendors, note holders, and the securities purchase agreement are set forth in Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC.

    		  <title>DayStar Technologies Announces 2010 Q3 Financials</title>
    			<description>   DayStar Technologies Announces 2010 Third Quarter Financial Results     
   Makes Significant Progress on Debt and Expense Reduction Initiative    
   Continues Discussions With Potential Strategic Partners     
        
    Milpitas, CA, November 15, 2010     &amp;ndash;  DayStar Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: DSTI),  a developer of solar photovoltaic products based on CIGS thin-film deposition technology,  today announced financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2010. 
     
 Net loss for the third quarter of 2010 was $7.4 million or $1.62 per share, compared with a net loss of $6.2 million or $1.66 per share in the third quarter of 2009. The net loss for the third quarter of 2010 included non-cash expenses of $6.3 million which increased the loss per share by $1.38 per share. The net loss for the third quarter excluding non-cash charges was $1.1 million or $0.24 per share, reflecting the significant cost savings measures implemented by the Company including a reduction in workforce and decrease in occupancy costs. 
     
 The non-cash charges resulted from the restructuring of the Company&amp;rsquo;s balance sheet in an effort to extinguish certain liabilities while we pursue strategic partnerships to commercialize our product. The Company incurred $2.0 million in restructuring charges related to the impairment of certain equipment during the quarter. Additionally, during the third quarter the Company restructured all of its existing convertible notes which resulted in the extinguishment of the original notes on the balance sheet and the recording of new notes and corresponding conversion features. This resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $4.9 million during the quarter, primarily due to the fair value of the conversion features on the restructured notes. 
       
  The per share losses were calculated on the weighted average common shares outstanding of 4.6 and 3.7 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.       
       
  DayStar CEO, Magnus Ryde, commented, &amp;quot;We are pleased with the progress we have made to significantly decrease debt and operating expenses. We were able to reduce our accounts payable and accrued expenses by $7.8 million during the quarter and we hope to complete our debt reduction program during the fourth quarter. In addition, we have significantly reduced our operating expenses. The debt and operating expense reductions should better position the Company as we continue our discussions with potential strategic partners to pursue opportunities to manufacture our CIGS modules offshore. As we stated on July 22, 2010, we are pursuing partnerships to implement this strategy. Those potential partnerships, if consummated, could include joint ventures, licensing agreements, contract manufacturing agreements, a reverse merger with or an acquisition of DayStar.&amp;quot;    
       
  The balance sheet as of September 30, 2010, and the statement of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2010, are attached as exhibits to this press release.

    		  <title>DayStar Announces Debt Extinguishment</title>
    			<description>   
 
  DayStar Announces Agreements to Extinguish Approximately $1 Million of Outstanding Debts  
  
 
 
   Milpitas, CA, October 22, 2010   &amp;ndash; DayStar Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: DSTI), a developer of solar photovoltaic products based on CIGS thin-film deposition technology announced today agreements to extinguish approximately $1 million in outstanding debts. 
  
 
 Socius CG II, Ltd. (&amp;ldquo;Socius&amp;rdquo;) has entered into agreements with fourteen of DayStar&amp;rsquo;s vendors pursuant to which Socius purchased approximately $1 million of the aggregate amount of debt, and then settled the resulting amounts owed in exchange for free-trading shares of DayStar&amp;rsquo;s common stock.  
  
 
 DayStar CEO, Magnus Ryde, commented, &amp;ldquo;We are pleased to have Socius as a new financial partner as we pursue opportunities to manufacture our CIGS modules offshore. As we stated on July 22, 2010, we are pursuing partnerships to implement this strategy. Those potential partnerships, if consummated, could include joint ventures, licensing agreements, contract manufacturing agreements, a reverse merger with or an acquisition of DayStar. It is clear to us that we need to continue to restructure our balance sheet and reduce debt to achieve the best opportunity for increased shareholder value. We are making very significant progress on this important initiative.&amp;rdquo;  
  
 The debts extinguished in this transaction will initially be settled in exchange for approximately 325,000 free-trading shares of DayStar&amp;rsquo;s common stock, subject to final adjustment. The initial number of shares to be issued to Socius will be adjusted on the 21 st  trading day following the date on which the initial shares were first issued based on a 25 percent discount to the volume weighted average price of DayStar&amp;rsquo;s common stock over the 20-day period. In no event will the aggregate number of shares of common stock issued to Socius exceed 9.99% of the total number of shares of the Company&amp;rsquo;s common stock outstanding.  
  
 
 Details of the agreements with Socius and DayStar&amp;rsquo;s issuance of common stock to Socius are set forth in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC today.

    		  <title>Q2 2010 Financial results</title>
    			<description>         
   DayStar Technologies Announces 2010 Second Quarter Financial Results     
         
    Newark, CA, August 23, 2010     &amp;ndash;  DayStar Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: DSTI),  a developer of solar photovoltaic products based on CIGS thin-film deposition technology,  today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2010. 
     
 Net loss for the second quarter of 2010 was $12.2 million or $2.97 per share, compared with a net loss of $6.7 million or $1.79 per share in the second quarter of 2009.  The net loss for the second quarter of 2010 reflects non-cash restructuring charges of $7.8 million, including $3.5 million in impairment charges on leasehold improvements at the Company&amp;rsquo;s Newark, California facility upon termination of the lease, as well as $4.3 million in impairment charges recorded on certain equipment during the quarter. The loss for the second quarter of 2010 also includes share-based compensation of $1.5 million. Overall, cash expenses were reduced significantly during the second quarter of 2010 as compared with 2009 with the implementation of cost savings measures including a reduction in workforce in order to preserve cash while focusing our resources on the development of our core CIGS technology and fundraising efforts to secure strategic partners and commercialize our product.    
       
  The per share losses were calculated on the weighted average common shares outstanding of 4.1 and 3.7 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The average shares outstanding and loss per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 reflect the 1-for-9 reverse stock split implemented on May 11, 2010. DayStar&amp;rsquo;s common stock began trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market on a split adjusted basis on May 12, 2010.    
       
  The balance sheet as of June 30, 2010, and the statement of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010, is attached as exhibits to this press release.

    		  <title>DayStar to Pursue CIGS Production Offshore</title>
    			<description>      7     
     
      

   
 
   DayStar is pursuing offshore manufacturing of its CIGS solar modules 
   
   In discussions with several potential partners 
   
    
    Newark, CA, July22, 2010    &amp;ndash; DayStar Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: DSTI), a developer of solar photovoltaic products based on CIGS thin-film deposition technology announced today it is pursuing a strategy for offshore manufacturing of its CIGS solar modules. 

   
 
 DayStar CEO, Magnus Ryde, commented, &amp;ldquo;While DayStar has accomplished significant innovations with our CIGS process and technology, we have encountered challenges in obtaining affordable capital for the build-out and operation of our facility in Newark, California. At this time, we are pursuing opportunities to manufacture our CIGS modules offshore and have begun discussions with several potential partners to implement this strategy. We are encouraged by the high caliber of the potential partners we are in discussions with. They understand the commercial potential for our CIGS modules and they bring substantial manufacturing and financial capabilities to the table. Those potential partnerships, if consummated, could include joint ventures, licensing agreements, contract manufacturing agreements, a reverse merger with or an acquisition of DayStar. We are confident in our core proprietary CIGS technology and believe that completing a transaction with a strategic partner and manufacturing our CIGS modules offshore would provide the best opportunity to bring our product to market and to manufacture the product in the most cost effective manner.&amp;rdquo;     
 Mr. Ryde added, &amp;ldquo;In addition to the potential partnership discussions mentioned above, we disclosed on May 3, 2010 that DayStar entered into an agreement with Dynamic Worldwide Solar Energy LLC (&amp;quot;Dynamic&amp;quot;) to provide DayStar with a series of loan commitments and at least one fully funded 25MW solar energy project.    Under the terms of that agreement, Dynamic has proposed to assign to DayStar its interest in a fully financed contract to fabricate, construct and install, and commence the operation of, a 25 MW solar energy generation plant. We are actively working with Dynamic on these projects. If consummated, these projects will add a new &amp;ldquo;downstream&amp;rdquo; dimension to DayStar and allow us to become a fully integrated solar energy company. DayStar's acceptance of the assignments is subject to applicable due diligence.&amp;rdquo; 
 As disclosed in a Form 8-K filing last night with the SEC, DayStar was notified by its landlord, BMR-Gateway Boulevard LLC that the Company&amp;rsquo;s lease for the premises located at 7333-7373 Gateway Boulevard in Newark, California has been terminated.

    		  <title>DayStar Technologies Announces Q1 2010 Financial Results</title>
    			<description>   
 
    Newark, CA, May 24, 2010     &amp;ndash;  DayStar Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: DSTID),  a developer of solar photovoltaic products based on CIGS thin-film deposition technology,  today announced financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2010. 
 
 Net loss for the first quarter of 2010 was $6.1 million or $1.61 per share, compared with a net loss of $7.7 million or $2.06 per share in the first quarter of 2009.  The lower net loss reflects the implementation of cost savings measures including a reduction in workforce in order to focus our resources on the development of our core CIGS technology while we continue fundraising efforts to complete our initial production line. The per share losses were calculated on the weighted average common shares outstanding of 3.8 and 3.7 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The average shares outstanding and loss per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 reflect the 1-for-9 reverse stock split implemented by DayStar on May 11, 2010. DayStar&amp;rsquo;s common stock began trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market on a split adjusted basis on May 12, 2010.  
  
  
 
  The balance sheet, as of March 31, 2010, and the statement of operations for the three months ending March 31, 2010, are attached as exhibits to this press release.
