EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Altera Corporation (the Company) is being filed to correct a typographical error in an Item 9A disclosure. Specifically, we note that the
effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm as of December 28, 2007. Except for the amendment described above,
this Amendment No. 1 does not modify or update the disclosure in the Companys original Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 25, 2008.

ITEM9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management, with the participation of the Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has performed an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of December 28,
2007, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules
13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Internal control over financial reporting is the process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and effected by our board
of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, and includes those policies and procedures that:



| | (i) | pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of assets;
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management and directors; and
| | ---- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iii) | provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the
financial statements.
| | ----- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute
assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal
control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control
over financial reporting. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with established policies
or procedures may deteriorate.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 28, 2007. In making this assessment, it used the criteria based on the framework set forth by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control  Integrated Framework. Based on the results of this assessment, management (including our chief executive officer and our chief
financial officer) has concluded that, as of December 28, 2007, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.



---

The effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 28,
2007 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report dated February 25, 2008.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control
over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this quarterly report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting.
