PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

(To Prospectus Dated May 10, 2006)

$190,000,000

Amkor Technology, Inc.

2.50% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2011

          The notes will bear interest at the rate of 2.50% per year on the principal amount of the notes, payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2006. The notes will mature on May 15, 2011. The notes will be our unsecured senior subordinated obligations, and will be subordinated in right of payment to all of our existing and future senior debt, effectively subordinated to the existing and future debt and other liabilities of our subsidiaries and equal in right of payment with our existing and future senior subordinated debt (except that the subsidiaries that guarantee our existing senior subordinated notes will not be guarantors of the notes).

      Holders may convert their notes at any time prior to the close of business on the business day prior to the stated maturity date based on an initial conversion rate of 68.5589 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes (which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $14.59 per share). The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, including upon the occurrence of certain corporate transactions that constitute a change of control and upon certain distributions to holders of our common stock. The conversion price will not be adjusted for accrued and unpaid interest.

      Upon the occurrence of certain designated events, holders of the notes will have the right to require us to repurchase the notes at a price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the repurchase date.

      Our common stock is quoted on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol “AMKR.” The last reported price of our common stock on the Nasdaq National Market on May 11, 2006, was $11.22 per share.

      We have granted the underwriter named in this prospectus supplement an option to purchase up to an additional $28.5 million principal amount of notes, which option must be exercised within 30 days of the date of this prospectus supplement.

      Concurrent with this offering, and by a separate prospectus supplement, we are offering $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2016. The completion of the senior notes offering and the completion of this offering are each conditioned upon the completion of the other.

       Investing in our notes involves risks. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-9 of this prospectus supplement.

       Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

      This document is in two parts. The first part is this prospectus supplement, which describes the terms of the offering of the notes and also adds to and updates information contained in the related prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into the related prospectus. The second part is the related prospectus, which contains more general information, some of which may not apply to this offering. To the extent that there is a conflict between the information contained in this prospectus supplement, on the one hand, and the information contained in the related prospectus or any document incorporated by reference therein, on the other hand, you should rely on the information in this prospectus supplement.

      We expect that delivery of the notes will be made against payment therefor on May 26, 2006, which will be the 11^th business day following the date of pricing of the notes (such settlement cycle being herein referred to as “T + 11”). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes on the date of pricing or the next seven succeeding business days will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially will settle T + 11, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of notes who wish to trade notes on the date of pricing or the next seven succeeding business days should consult their own advisor.

      You should rely only on the information incorporated by reference or contained in this prospectus supplement and the related prospectus. We have not authorized anyone to provide you with different information. We are not making an offer of these securities in any state where the offer is not permitted. You should not assume that the information contained in this prospectus supplement and the related prospectus is accurate as of any date other than the date on the front of this prospectus supplement or the related prospectus, as relevant.

      In this prospectus supplement, unless we state otherwise, the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our” and “Amkor” refer to Amkor Technology, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT SUMMARY

      This summary highlights selected information about us and this offering. This summary is not complete and may not contain all the information that may be important to you. You should read the entire prospectus supplement, the related prospectus and the documents we incorporate by reference before making an investment decision. Unless otherwise indicated, this prospectus supplement assumes no exercise of the underwriter’s option to purchase additional notes.

Amkor Technology, Inc.

      We are one of the world’s largest subcontractors of semiconductor packaging (sometimes referred to as assembly) and test services. We pioneered the outsourcing of semiconductor packaging and test services through a predecessor in 1968, and over the years have built a leading position by:

•  Providing a broad portfolio of packaging and test technologies and services,

•  Maintaining a leading role in the design and development of new package and test technologies,

•  Cultivating long-standing relationships with customers, including many of the world’s leading semiconductor companies,

•  Developing expertise in high-volume manufacturing processes to provide our services; and

•  Providing a broadly diversified operational scope, with production capabilities in China, Korea, Japan, the Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan and the United States, “U.S.”

      Packaging and test are integral parts of the process of manufacturing semiconductor devices. This process begins with silicon wafers and involves the fabrication of electronic circuitry into complex patterns, creating large numbers of individual chips on the wafers. The fabricated wafers are probed to ensure the individual devices meet design specifications. The packaging process creates an electrical interconnect between the semiconductor chip and the system board through wire bonding or bumping technologies. In packaging, individual chips are separated from the fabricated semiconductor wafers, attached to a substrate and then encased in a protective material to provide optimal electrical connectivity and thermal performance. The packaged chips are then tested using sophisticated equipment to ensure that each packaged chip meets its design specifications. Increasingly, packages are custom designed for specific chips and specific end-market applications. We are able to provide turnkey solutions including semiconductor wafer bumping, wafer probe, wafer backgrind, package design, packaging, test and drop shipment services.

      The semiconductors that we package and test for our customers ultimately become components in electronic systems used in communications, computing, consumer, industrial and automotive applications. Our customers include, among others: Altera Corporation; Avago Technologies, Pte; Freescale Semiconductor, Inc.; Intel Corporation; International Business Machines Corporation (“IBM”); Samsung Electronics Corporation, Ltd.; Conexant Systems, Inc.; ST Microelectronics, Pte, Ltd.; Texas Instruments, Inc.; and Toshiba Corporation. The outsourced semiconductor packaging and test market is very competitive. We also compete with the internal semiconductor packaging and test capabilities of many of our customers.

      We were incorporated in 1997 in the state of Delaware. Our principal offices are located at 1900 South Price Road, Chandler, AZ 85248. Our telephone number is (480) 821-5000 and our website can be accessed at www.amkor.com. Information contained in our website does not constitute part of this prospectus supplement.

Concurrent Transactions

      On April 28, 2006, we commenced a tender offer for up to $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 9.25% Senior Notes due 2008, or 9.25% notes, at a tender price of $1,035.00 for each $1,000 principal amount of notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the purchase date of the

S-1

9.25% notes. Holders who tendered on or before May 9, 2006 will also receive an early tender payment of $20.00 per $1,000 principal amount, which, together with the tender price, equals the total potential consideration of $1,055.00. Completion of the tender offer is subject to (i) us having raised funds sufficient to purchase the 9.25% notes tendered up to the cap and to pay fees and expenses in connection therewith and (ii) customary tender offer conditions.

      As of May 9, 2006, holders of $349.4 million in aggregate principal amount of 9.25% notes have tendered in the tender offer. We have increased the size of the tender offer to up to $360.0 million. We intend to use $391.8 million in net proceeds from a $400.0 million concurrent offering of senior notes due 2016 to purchase the $349.4 million of 9.25% senior notes tendered to date in the tender offer (including the payment of a tender premium, accrued and unpaid interest, an early tender payment and related fees and expenses), with the remainder (an estimated $13.1 million) to repurchase remaining 9.25% senior notes that may be tendered, subject to the cap, to retire other debt or for general corporate or working capital purposes. The senior notes will be offered by us pursuant to a separate prospectus supplement.

      In this prospectus supplement, we refer to this offering, our intended use of proceeds from this offering, the concurrent offering of senior notes and the tender offer as the “concurrent transactions.” For a further description of assumptions we make in this prospectus supplement regarding the concurrent transactions, see “Use of Proceeds” and “Capitalization.” The tender offer is conditioned on the completion of the concurrent offering, and the completion of this offering and the completion of the concurrent offering are each conditioned upon the completion of the other.

The Offering

Issuer	Amkor Technology, Inc.
Securities Offered	$190.0 million aggregate principal amount, or $218.5 million if the underwriter exercises its option to purchase additional notes in full, of 2.50% convertible senior subordinated notes due 2011.
Issue Price	100% of the principal amount of each note.
Maturity	May 15, 2011 unless earlier repurchased or converted.
Interest and Payment Dates	2.50% per year on the principal amount of the notes, payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning November 15, 2006.
Conversion Rights	Holders may convert their notes at any time prior to the close of business on the business day prior to the stated maturity date based on an initial conversion rate of 68.5589 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes (which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $14.59 per share). The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, including upon the occurrence of certain corporate transactions that constitute a change of control and upon certain distributions to holders of our common stock. See “Description of the Notes — Conversion.”
	The conversion rate will not be adjusted for accrued and unpaid interest. By delivering to the holder shares of our common stock, we will satisfy our obligations with respect to the notes subject to the conversion. Accordingly, upon conversion of a note, accrued and unpaid interest will be deemed to be paid in full, rather than canceled, extinguished or forfeited. See “Description of the Notes — Conversion.”
Repurchase at the Option of the Holder	Upon the occurrence of a designated event (which includes a change of control or a termination of trading (each as defined herein)), holders of the notes will have the right to require us to repurchase the notes at a price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the repurchase date. See “Risk Factors — Repurchase of Notes — We May Not Have the Ability to Repurchase the Notes or Our Other Notes Upon the Occurrence of Certain Events” and “Description of the Notes — Repurchase at Option of Holders Upon a Designated Event.”
Make Whole Amount	If certain transactions that constitute a change of control occur, under certain circumstances, we will increase the conversion rate for a period of time by a number of additional shares for any conversion of notes in connection with such transactions, as described under “Description of the Notes — Conversion — Make Whole Amount.” The number of additional shares will be determined based on the date such transaction becomes effective and the price paid per share of our common stock in such transaction.

S-3

Subordination	The notes will be:
	• our senior subordinated, unsecured obligations;
	• subordinated in right of payment to all of our existing and future senior debt, including any amounts outstanding under our secured revolving credit facility, our second lien secured credit facility, our 9.25% senior notes due 2008, our 7.75% senior notes due 2013, our 7.125% senior notes due 2011 and the senior notes being offered in the concurrent offering;
	• effectively subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future debt and other liabilities, including trade payables, of any of our subsidiaries;
	• equal in right of payment with all of our existing and future senior subordinated debt, including our outstanding 10.5% senior subordinated notes due 2009, except that our subsidiaries that guarantee the 10.5% senior subordinated notes will not be guarantors of the notes; and
	• senior in right of payment to all of our existing and future subordinated debt, including our 5.75% convertible subordinated notes due 2006, our 5.00% convertible subordinated notes due 2007 and our 6.25% convertible subordinated notes due 2013.
	As of March 31, 2006, assuming completion of the concurrent transactions, we would have had approximately $1,464.8 million of senior debt, $213.5 million of senior subordinated debt, and approximately $378.4 million of subordinated debt. In addition, as of March 31, 2006, our subsidiaries had $544.2 million of indebtedness and other liabilities, excluding intercompany liabilities.
Absence of An Established Market for the Notes	The notes are a new issue of securities, and currently there is no market for them. We do not intend to apply for the notes to be listed on any securities exchange or to arrange for any quotation system to quote them. The underwriter has advised us that it intends to make a market for the notes but it is not obligated to do so. The underwriter may discontinue any market-making in the notes at any time in its sole discretion. Our common stock is quoted on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol “AMKR.”
Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations	The notes and the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes will be subject to special and complex U.S. federal income tax rules. Holders are encouraged to consult their tax advisors as to the U.S. federal, state, local or other tax consequences of acquiring, owning and disposing of the notes. See “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.”
Use of Proceeds	We intend to use the net proceeds from the offering to redeem, repurchase or otherwise retire $176.5 million of our $200.0 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 10.5% senior subor-

S-4

dinated notes due 2009 (together with the payment of the related premium, accrued and unpaid interest to and including the redemption date and related fees and expenses). In the event the underwriter exercises its option to purchase additional notes in full, we intend to use the proceeds to redeem, repurchase or otherwise retire the remaining amount of notes outstanding of our 10.5% senior subordinated notes due 2009, with any remainder (an estimated $3.2 million), to retire other debt or for general corporate or working capital purposes. See “Use of Proceeds.”

Concurrent Offering

Concurrent with this offering, and by a separate prospectus supplement, we are offering $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2016. The completion of this offering and the completion of the concurrent offering are each conditioned upon the completion of the other.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

      This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks and other factors include, among other things, those listed under “Risk Factors” in this prospectus supplement and elsewhere in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue” or the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions. Actual events or results may differ materially. In evaluating these statements, you should specifically consider various factors, including the risks outlined under “Risk Factors.” These factors may cause our actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statement.

      Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Moreover, neither any other person nor we assume responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of such statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update publicly any of them in light of new information or future events.

S-8

RISK FACTORS

      Any investment in our notes or our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should consider the risks described below carefully and all of the information contained in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus before deciding whether to purchase our notes or our common stock issued upon their conversion. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only risks and uncertainties we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations would suffer. In that event, the price of the notes and our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment in the notes and our common stock. The risks discussed below also include forward-looking statements and our actual results may differ substantially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements.

Risks Related to the Company

Dependence on the Highly Cyclical Semiconductor and Electronic Products Industries — We Operate in Volatile Industries, and Industry Downturns Harm Our Performance.

      Our business is tied to market conditions in the semiconductor industry, which is cyclical by nature. The semiconductor industry has experienced significant, and sometimes prolonged, downturns. Because our business is, and will continue to be, dependent on the requirements of semiconductor companies for subcontracted packaging and test services, any downturn in the semiconductor industry or any other industry that uses a significant number of semiconductor devices, such as consumer electronic products, telecommunication devices, or computing devices could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. If current industry conditions deteriorate, we could suffer significant losses, as we have in the past, which could materially impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

High Fixed Costs — Due to Our High Percentage of Fixed Costs, We Will Be Unable to Maintain Our Gross Margin at Past Levels if We Are Unable to Achieve Relatively High Capacity Utilization Rates.

      Our operations are characterized by relatively high fixed costs. Our profitability depends in part not only on pricing levels for our products and services, but also on the utilization rates for our testing and packaging equipment, commonly referred to as “capacity utilization rates.” In particular, increases or decreases in our capacity utilization rates can significantly affect gross margins since the unit cost of testing and packaging services generally decreases as fixed costs are allocated over a larger number of units. In periods of low demand, we experience relatively low capacity utilization rates in our operations, which lead to reduced margins during that period. During most of 2005, we experienced lower than optimum utilization rates in our operations due to a decline in worldwide demand for our testing and packaging services, which led to significantly reduced margins during that period. Although our capacity utilization rates have improved recently, we cannot assure you that we will be able to continue to achieve or maintain relatively high capacity utilization rates, and if we fail to do so, our gross margins may decrease. If our gross margins decrease, our results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

      In addition, our fixed operating costs have increased in part as a result of our efforts to expand our capacity through acquisitions, including the acquisition of certain operations and assets in Shanghai, China and Singapore from IBM and Xin Development Co., Ltd. in May 2004, and the acquisition of capital stock of Unitive and UST in August 2004. We are also expending significant capital resources in connection with the opening of a wafer bumping facility in Singapore in 2006, which will further increase our fixed costs. In the event that forecasted customer demand for which we have made, and on a more limited basis, expect to make advance capital expenditures does not materialize, our sales may not adequately cover our substantial fixed costs resulting in reduced profit levels or causing significant losses both of which may adversely impact our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition. Additionally, if current industry conditions deteriorate, we could suffer significant losses, which could materially impact our business including our liquidity.

Fluctuations in Operating Results and Cash Flows — Our Operating Results and Cash Flows Have Varied and May Vary Significantly as a Result of Factors That We Cannot Control.

      Many factors could materially and adversely affect our net sales, gross profit, operating results and cash flows, or lead to significant variability of quarterly or annual operating results. Our profitability and ability to generate cash from operations is principally dependent upon demand for semiconductors, the utilization of our capacity, semiconductor package mix, the average selling price of our services and our ability to control our costs including labor, material, overhead and financing costs.

      Our operating results and cash flows have varied significantly from period to period. During 2005 our net sales, gross margins, operating income and cash flows have fluctuated significantly as a result of the following factors, many of which we have little or no control over and which we expect to continue to impact our business:

•  fluctuation in demand for semiconductors and conditions in the semiconductor industry;

•  changes in our capacity utilization;

•  changes in average selling prices;

•  changes in the mix of semiconductor packages;

•  evolving package and test technology;

•  absence of backlog and the short-term nature of our customers’ commitments and the impact of these factors on the timing and volume of orders relative to our production capacity;

•  changes in costs, availability and delivery times of raw materials and components;

•  changes in labor costs to perform our services;

•  the timing of expenditures in anticipation of future orders;

•  changes in effective tax rates;

•  the availability and cost of financing;

•  intellectual property transactions and disputes;

•  high leverage and restrictive covenants;

•  warranty and product liability claims;

•  costs associated with litigation judgments and settlements;

•  international events or environmental or natural events, such as earthquakes, that impact our operations;

•  difficulties integrating acquisitions; and

•  our ability to attract qualified employees to support our geographic expansion.

      We have historically been unable to accurately predict the impact of these factors upon our results for a particular period. These factors, as well as the factors set forth below which have not significantly impacted our recent historical results, may impair our future business operations and may materially and adversely affect our net sales, gross profit, operating results and cash flows, or lead to significant variability of quarterly or annual operating results:

•  loss of key personnel or the shortage of available skilled workers;

•  rescheduling and cancellation of large orders; and

•  fluctuations in our manufacturing yields.

S-10

Guidance — Our Failure to Meet Our Guidance or Analyst Projections Could Adversely Impact the Trading Prices of Our Securities

      Periodically we provide guidance to investors with respect to certain financial information for future periods. Securities analysts also periodically publish their own projections with respect to our future operating results. As discussed above under “Fluctuations in Operating Results and Cash Flows — Our Operating Results and Cash Flows Have Varied and May Vary Significantly as a Result of Factors That We Cannot Control,” our operating results and cash flow vary significantly and are difficult to accurately predict. To the extent we fail to meet or exceed our own guidance or the analyst projections for any reason, the trading prices of our securities may be adversely impacted. Moreover, even if we do meet or exceed that guidance or those projections, the analysts and investors may not react favorably and the trading prices of our securities may be adversely impacted.

Declining Average Selling Prices — The Semiconductor Industry Places Downward Pressure on the Prices of Our Products.

      Prices for packaging and test services have generally declined over time. Historically, we have been able to partially offset the effect of price declines by successfully developing and marketing new packages with higher prices, such as advanced leadframe and laminate packages, by negotiating lower prices with our material vendors, recovering material cost increases from some of our customers, and by driving engineering and technological changes in our packaging and test processes which resulted in reduced manufacturing costs. Although the average selling prices of some of our products have increased in recent periods, we expect general downward pressure on average selling prices for our packaging and test services in the future. If we are unable to offset a decline in average selling prices, including developing and marketing new packages with higher prices, reducing our purchasing costs, recovering more of our material cost increases from our customers and reducing our manufacturing costs, our future operating results will suffer.

Decisions by Our IDM Customers to Curtail Outsourcing May Adversely Affect Our Business.

      Historically, we have been dependent on the trend in outsourcing of packaging and test services by IDMs. Our IDM customers continually evaluate the outsourced services against their own in-house packaging and test services. As a result, at any time, and for a variety of reasons, IDMs may decide to shift some or all of their outsourced packaging and test services to internally sourced capacity.

      The reasons IDMs may shift their internal capacity include:

•  their desire to realize higher utilization of their existing test and packaging capacity, especially during downturns in the semiconductor industry;

•  their unwillingness to disclose proprietary technology;

•  their possession of more advanced packaging and testing technologies; and

•  the guaranteed availability of their own packaging and test capacity.

      Furthermore, to the extent we continue to limit capacity commitments for certain customers, these customers may begin to increase their level of in-house packaging and test capabilities, which could adversely impact our sales and profitability and make it more difficult for us to regain their business when we have available capacity. Any shift or a slowdown in this trend of outsourcing packaging and test services is likely to adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

      In a downturn in the semiconductor industry, IDMs may be especially likely to respond by shifting some outsourced packaging and test services to internally serviced capacity on a short term basis. This would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, especially during a prolonged industry downturn.

S-11

History of Losses

      Although we achieved net income and positive operating cash flow in the first quarter of 2006, we have had net losses in four of the previous five years and negative operating cash flow in several previous quarters. There is no assurance that we will be able to sustain our current profitability or avoid net losses in the future.

Ability to Fund Liquidity Needs

      We operate in a capital intensive industry. Servicing our current and future customers requires that we incur significant operating expenses and continue to make significant capital expenditures, which are generally made in advance of the related revenues and without any firm customer commitments. During 2005, we had capital additions of $294.8 million and in 2006 we currently anticipate making capital additions of approximately $300 million, which estimate is subject to adjustment based on business conditions. In addition, we have a significant level of debt, with $2,117.9 million outstanding at March 31, 2006 (without giving effect to the concurrent transactions), $339.1 million of which is current. The terms of such debt require significant scheduled principal payments in the coming years, including $182.0 million due during the remainder of 2006, $175.6 million due in 2007, $461.9 million due in 2008, $211.9 million due in 2009, $311.9 million due in 2010 and $774.6 million due thereafter (without giving effect to the concurrent transactions). The interest payments required on our debt are also substantial. For example, in 2005, our total interest paid was $168.6 million. (See Part I, Item 2 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Capital Additions and Contractual Obligations” in our Quarterly Report on From 10-Q for a summary of principal and interest payments.) The source of funds to fund our operations, including making capital expenditures and servicing principal and interest obligations with respect to our debt, are cash flows from our operations, current cash and cash equivalents, borrowings under available debt facilities, or proceeds from any additional debt or equity financing. As of March 31, 2006, we had cash and cash equivalents of $226.2 million and $97.5 million available under our senior secured revolving credit facility (without giving effect to the concurrent transactions).

      We assess our liquidity based on our current expectations regarding sales, operating expenses, capital spending and debt service requirements. Based on this assessment, we believe that our cash flow from operating activities together with existing cash and cash equivalents and availability under our senior secured revolving credit facility will be sufficient to fund our working capital, capital expenditure and debt service requirements through March 31, 2007, including retiring the remaining $132.0 million of our 5.75% convertible subordinated notes at maturity in June 2006 and the $146.4 million of our 5.0% convertible subordinated notes at maturity in March 2007. Thereafter, our liquidity will continue to be affected by, among other things, the performance of our business, our capital expenditure levels and our ability to repay debt out of our operating cash flow or refinance the debt with the proceeds of debt or equity offerings at or prior to maturity. If our performance or access to the capital markets differs materially from our expectations, our liquidity may be adversely impacted.

      There is no assurance that we will generate the necessary net income or operating cash flows to meet the funding needs of our business in the future due to a variety of factors, including the cyclical nature of the semiconductor industry and the other factors discussed in this Risk Factors section. If we are unable to do so, our liquidity would be adversely affected and we would consider taking a variety of actions, including: reducing our operating expenses (including closing facilities and reducing the size of our work force) and capital additions to levels appropriate to support our incoming business, raising additional equity, borrowing additional funds, refinancing existing indebtedness or taking other actions. There can be no assurance, however, that we will be able to successfully take any of these actions, including adjusting our expenses sufficiently or in a timely manner, or raising additional equity, increasing borrowings or completing refinancings on any terms or on terms which are acceptable to us. Our inability to take these actions as and when necessary would materially adversely affect our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition.

S-12

Absence of Backlog — The Lack of Contractually Committed Customer Demand May Adversely Affect Our Sales.

      Our packaging and test business does not typically operate with any material backlog. Our quarterly net sales from packaging and test services are substantially dependent upon our customers’ demand in that quarter. None of our customers have committed to purchase any significant amount of packaging or test services or to provide us with binding forecasts of demand for packaging and test services for any future period, in any material amount. In addition, our customers often reduce, cancel or delay their purchases of packaging and test services for a variety of reasons including industry-wide, customer-specific and Amkor-related reasons. Recently, our customers’ demand for our services has increased; however, we cannot predict if this demand trend will continue and the forecasted demand will materialize. Because a large portion of our costs is fixed and our expense levels are based in part on our expectations of future revenues, we may not be able to adjust costs in a timely manner to compensate for any sales shortfall. If we are unable to do so, it would adversely affect our margins, operating results, cash flows and financial condition. If customer demand does not materialize as anticipated, our net sales, margins, operating results, cash flows and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected.

Risks Associated With International Operations — We Depend on Our Factories and Operations in China, Japan, Korea, the Philippines, Singapore and Taiwan. Many of Our Customers’ and Vendors’ Operations Are Also Located Outside of the U.S.

      We provide packaging and test services through our factories and other operations located in the China, Japan, Korea, the Philippines, Singapore and Taiwan. Moreover, many of our customers’ and vendors’ operations are located outside the U.S. The following are some of the risks inherent in doing business internationally:

•  regulatory limitations imposed by foreign governments;

•  fluctuations in currency exchange rates;

•  political, military and terrorist risks;

•  disruptions or delays in shipments caused by customs brokers or government agencies;

•  unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, tariffs, customs, duties and other trade barriers;

•  difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations; and

•  potentially adverse tax consequences resulting from changes in tax laws.

Difficulties Expanding and Evolving Our Operational Capabilities — We Face Challenges as We Integrate New and Diverse Operations and Try to Attract Qualified Employees to Support Our Operations.

      We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, growth in the scope and complexity of our operations. For example, each business we have acquired had, at the time of acquisition, multiple systems for managing its own production, sales, inventory and other operations. Migrating these businesses to our systems typically is a slow, expensive process requiring us to divert significant amounts of resources from multiple aspects of our operations. This growth has strained our managerial, financial, plant operations and other resources. Future expansions may result in inefficiencies as we integrate new operations and manage geographically diverse operations. Our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued service of our key senior management and technical personnel, any of whom may be difficult to replace. Competition for qualified employees is intense, and our business could be adversely affected by the loss of the services of any of our existing key personnel, including senior management, as a result of competition or for any other reason. Additionally, as part of our ongoing strategic planning, we evaluate our management team and engage in long-term succession planning in order to ensure orderly replacement of key personnel. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in these efforts or in hiring and properly training sufficient numbers of qualified

S-13

personnel and in effectively managing our growth. Our inability to attract, retain, motivate and train qualified new personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Dependence on Materials and Equipment Suppliers — Our Business May Suffer If The Cost, Quality or Supply of Materials or Equipment Changes Adversely.

      We obtain from various vendors the materials and equipment required for the packaging and test services performed by our factories. We source most of our materials, including critical materials such as leadframes, laminate substrates and gold wire, from a limited group of suppliers. Furthermore, we purchase the majority of our materials on a purchase order basis. From time to time, we enter into supply agreements, generally up to one year in duration, to guarantee supply to meet projected demand. Our business may be harmed if we cannot obtain materials and other supplies from our vendors: in a timely manner, in sufficient quantities, in acceptable quality or at competitive prices.

      We need to purchase new packaging and testing equipment if we decide to expand our operations (sometimes in anticipation of expected market demand), to manufacture some new types of packaging, perform some different testing or to replace equipment that breaks down or wears out. From time to time, increased demand for new equipment may cause lead times to extend beyond those normally required by equipment vendors. For example, in the past, increased demand for equipment caused some equipment suppliers to only partially satisfy our equipment orders in the normal lead time frame or increase prices during market upturns for the semiconductor industry. The unavailability of equipment or failures to deliver equipment could delay implementation of our future expansion plans and impair our ability to meet customer orders. If we are unable to implement our future expansion plans or meet customer orders, we could lose potential and existing customers. Generally, we do not enter into binding, long-term equipment purchase agreements and we acquire our equipment on a purchase order basis, which exposes us to substantial risks. For example, sudden changes in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly the US dollar and Japanese yen, could result in increased prices for equipment purchased by us, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

      We are a large buyer of gold and other commodities including substrates and copper. The price of gold and other commodities used in our business has been increasing in recent quarters. The increase in the price of the commodities may continue. We have been able to partially offset the effect of commodity price increases through price adjustments to some customers and changes in our product designs. The increase in commodity prices did, however, adversely impact our gross margin in the quarter ended March 31, 2006 and may continue to do so in future quarters to the extent we are unable to pass along past or future commodity price increases to many of our customers.

Loss of Customers — The Loss of Certain Customers May Have a Significant Adverse Effect on the Operations and Financial Results.

      The loss of a large customer or disruption of our strategic partnerships or other commercial arrangements may result in a decline in our sales and profitability. Although we have over 200 customers, we have derived and expect to continue to derive a large portion of our revenues from a small group of customers during any particular period due in part to the concentration of market share in the semiconductor industry. Our five largest customers together accounted for approximately 25.2% and 26.0% of our net sales in 2005 and 2004, respectively. No customer accounts for more than 10% of our net sales.

      The demand for our services from each customer is directly dependent upon that customer’s level of business activity, which could vary significantly from year to year. The loss of a large customer may adversely affect our sales and profitability. Our key customers typically operate in the cyclical semiconductor business and, in the past, have varied, and may vary in the future, order levels significantly from period to period based on industry-, customer- or Amkor-specific factors. We cannot assure you that these customers or any other customers will continue to place orders with us in the future at the same levels as in past periods. The loss of one or more of our significant customers, or reduced orders by any one of them, and our inability to replace these customers or make up for such orders could reduce our profitability. For example, our facility in Iwate,

S-14

Japan, is primarily dedicated to a single customer, Toshiba Corporation. If we were to lose Toshiba as a customer or if it were to materially reduce its business with us, it could be difficult for us to find one or more new customers to utilize the capacity, which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial results.

Capital Additions — We Believe We Need To Make Substantial Capital Additions, Which May Adversely Affect Our Business If Our Business Does Not Develop As We Expect.

      We believe that our business requires us to make significant capital additions in order to capitalize on what we believe is an overall trend to outsourcing of packaging and test services. The amount of capital additions will depend on several factors including, the performance of our business, our assessment of future industry and customer demand, our capacity utilization levels and availability, our liquidity position and the availability of financing. Our ongoing capital addition requirements may strain our cash and short-term asset balances, and we expect that depreciation expense and factory operating expenses associated with our recent capital additions to increase production capacity will put downward pressure on our gross margin, at least over the near term.

      Furthermore, if we cannot generate or borrow additional funds to pay for capital additions as well as research and development activities, our growth prospects and future profitability may be adversely affected. Our ability to obtain external financing in the future is subject to a variety of uncertainties, including:

•  our future financial condition, results of operations and cash flows;

•  general market conditions for financing activities by semiconductor companies; and

•  economic, political and other global conditions.

      The lead time needed to order, install and put into service various capital additions is often significant, and as a result we often need to commit to capital additions in advance of our receipt of firm orders or advance deposits based on our view of anticipated future demand with only very limited visibility. Although we seek to limit our exposure in this regard, in the past we have often expended significant capital for additions for which the anticipated demand did not materialize for a variety of reasons, many of which were outside of our control. To the extent this occurs in the future, our margins, liquidity, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

Impairment Charges — Any Impairment Charges Required Under GAAP May Have a Material Adverse Effect on Our Net Income.

      Under GAAP, we are required to review our long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. In addition, goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are required to be tested for impairment at least annually. We may be required in the future to record a significant charge to earnings in our financial statements during the period in which any impairment of our long-lived assets is determined. Such charges could have a significant adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

Increased Litigation Incident to Our Business — Our Business May Suffer as a Result of Our Involvement in Various Lawsuits.

      We are currently a party to various legal proceedings, including those described in Part II, Item 1 “Legal Proceedings” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Much of our recent increase in litigation relates to an allegedly defective epoxy compound, formerly used in some of our products, which is alleged to be responsible for certain semiconductor chip failures. We have recently settled the last outstanding mold compound litigation, however if other customers were to make similar claims, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on our operating results in the period in which the ruling occurs. We also recently have been named as a party in a purported securities class action suit entitled Nathan Weiss et al. v. Amkor Technology, Inc. et al. (and several similar cases), and in purported shareholder derivative lawsuits entitled Scimeca v. Kim, et al. and Kahn v. Kim, et al., as described in greater detail in the Part I, Item 2 under the caption

S-15

“Litigation — Other Litigation” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. While we currently believe that the ultimate outcome of these proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows, litigation and other legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties. If an unfavorable ruling or outcome were to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. An unfavorable ruling or outcome could also have a negative impact on the trading price of our securities. The estimate of the potential impact from the legal proceedings referred to in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could change in the future.

Pending SEC Investigation — The Pending SEC Investigation Could Adversely Affect Our Business and the Trading Price of Our Securities.

      In August 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued a formal order of investigation regarding certain activities with respect to Amkor securities. As previously announced, the primary focus of the investigation appears to be activities during the period from June 2003 to July 2004. Amkor believes that the investigation continues to relate primarily to transactions in the Company’s securities by certain individuals, and that the investigation may in part relate to whether tipping with respect to trading in Amkor securities occurred. The matters at issue involve activities with respect to Amkor securities during the subject period by certain insiders or former insiders and persons or entities associated with them, including activities by or on behalf of certain current and former members of the Board of Directors and Amkor’s Chief Executive Officer. Amkor has cooperated fully with the SEC on the formal investigation and the informal inquiry that preceded it. Amkor cannot predict the outcome of the investigation. In the event that the investigation leads to SEC action against any current or former officer or director of the Company, or the Company itself, our business (including our ability to complete financing transactions) or the trading price of our securities may be adversely impacted. In addition, if the SEC investigation continues for a prolonged period of time, it may have the same impact regardless of the ultimate outcome of the investigation.

We Could Suffer Adverse Tax and Other Financial Consequences if Taxing Authorities Do Not Agree with Our Interpretation of Applicable Tax Laws.

      The Company’s corporate structure and operations are based, in part, on interpretations of various tax laws, including withholding tax and other relevant laws of applicable taxing jurisdictions. From time to time the taxing authorities of the relevant jurisdictions may conduct examinations of our income tax returns. We cannot assure you that the taxing authorities will agree with our interpretations. To the extent they do not agree, we may seek to enter into settlements with the taxing authorities which require significant payments or otherwise adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition. We may also appeal the taxing authorities’ determinations to the appropriate governmental authorities, but we can not be sure we will prevail. If we do not prevail, we may have to make significant payments or otherwise record charges (or reduce tax assets) that adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition.

      For example, during 2003 the Internal Revenue Service conducted an examination of our U.S. federal income tax returns relating to years 2000 and 2001, which resulted in a settlement pursuant to which various adjustments were made, including reductions in our U.S. net operating loss carryforwards. In addition, during 2005, the IRS conducted a limited scope examination of our U.S. federal income tax returns relating to years 2002 and 2003, primarily reviewing inter-company transfer pricing and cost-sharing issues carried over from the 2000 and 2001 examination cycle, as a result of which we agreed to further reductions in our net operating loss carryforwards. Future examinations by the taxing authorities in the United States or other jurisdictions may result in additional adverse tax consequences. Our tax examinations and the related adjustments are described in greater detail in Note 1 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

S-16

Rapid Technological Change — Our Business Will Suffer If We Cannot Keep Up With Technological Advances in Our Industry.

      The complexity and breadth of semiconductor packaging and test services are rapidly increasing. As a result, we expect that we will need to offer more advanced package designs in order to respond to competitive industry conditions and customer requirements. Our success depends upon our ability to acquire, develop and implement new manufacturing processes and package design technologies and tools. The need to develop and maintain advanced packaging capabilities and equipment could require significant research and development and capital expenditures and acquisitions in future years. In addition, converting to new package designs or process methodologies could result in delays in producing new package types, which could adversely affect our ability to meet customer orders and adversely impact our business.

      Technological advances also typically lead to rapid and significant price erosion and may make our existing products less competitive or our existing inventories obsolete. If we cannot achieve advances in package design or obtain access to advanced package designs developed by others, our business could suffer.

Packaging and Testing — The Packaging and Testing Process Is Complex and Our Production Yields and Customer Relationships May Suffer from Defects in the Services We Provide.

      Semiconductor packaging and testing are complex processes that require significant technological and process expertise. The packaging process is complex and involves a number of precise steps. Defective packages primarily result from:

•  contaminants in the manufacturing environment;

•  human error;

•  equipment malfunction;

•  changing processes to address environmental requirements;

•  defective raw materials; or

•  defective plating services.

      Testing is also complex and involves sophisticated equipment and software. Similar to most software programs, these software programs are complex and may contain programming errors or “bugs.” The testing equipment is also subject to malfunction. In addition, the testing process is subject to operator error by our employees who operate our testing equipment and related software.

      These and other factors have, from time to time, contributed to lower production yields. They may also do so in the future, particularly as we expand our capacity or change our processing steps. In addition, to be competitive, we must continue to expand our offering of packages. Our production yields on new packages typically are significantly lower than our production yields on our more established packages.

      Our failure to maintain high standards or acceptable production yields, if significant and prolonged, could result in loss of customers, increased costs of production, delays, substantial amounts of returned goods and claims by customers relating thereto. Any of these problems could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

      In addition, in line with industry practice, new customers usually require us to pass a lengthy and rigorous qualification process that may take as long as six months, at a significant cost to the customer. If we fail to qualify packages with potential customers or customers with which we have recently become qualified do not use our services, our operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Competition — We Compete Against Established Competitors in the Packaging and Test Business as Well as Internal Customer Capabilities.

      The subcontracted semiconductor packaging and test market is very competitive. We face substantial competition from established packaging and test service providers primarily located in Asia, including

S-17

companies with significant processing capacity, financial resources, research and development operations, marketing and other capabilities. These companies also have established relationships with many large semiconductor companies that are our current or potential customers.

      We also face competition from the internal capabilities and capacity of many of our current and potential integrated device manufacturers (“IDM”) customers.

      In addition, we may in the future to compete with a number of companies that may enter the market and with companies that may offer new or emerging technologies that compete with our products and services.

      We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete successfully in the future against our existing or potential competitors or that our customers will not rely on internal sources for test and packaging services, or that our business, financial condition and results of operations will not be adversely affected by such increased competition.

Environmental Regulations — Future Environmental Regulations Could Place Additional Burdens on Our Manufacturing Operations.

      The semiconductor packaging process uses chemicals and gases and generates byproducts that are subject to extensive governmental regulations. For example, at our foreign facilities we produce liquid waste when silicon wafers are diced into chips with the aid of diamond saws, then cooled with running water. Federal, state and local regulations in the U.S., as well as international environmental regulations, impose various controls on the storage, handling, discharge and disposal of chemicals used in our production processes and on the factories we occupy and are increasingly imposing restrictions on the materials contained in packaging products.

      Increasingly, public attention has focused on the environmental impact of semiconductor operations and the risk to neighbors of chemical releases from such operations and to the materials contained in semiconductor products. For example, the European Union’s recently enacted the Directives on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), and the Restriction of Use of Certain Hazardous Substances (RoHS), impose strict restrictions on the use of lead and other hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment and are expected to begin taking effect July 1, 2006. In response to these directives, we have implemented changes in a number of our manufacturing processes in an effort to achieve RoHS compliance across all of our package types. Complying with existing and future environmental regulations may impose upon us the need for additional capital equipment or other process requirements, restrict our ability to expand our operations, disrupt our operations, subject us to liability or cause us to curtail our operations.

Protection of Intellectual Property — We May Become Involved in Intellectual Property Litigation.

      We maintain an active program to protect our investment in technology by augmenting and enforcing our intellectual property rights. Intellectual property rights that apply to our various products and services include patents, copyrights, trade secrets and trademarks. We have filed and obtained a number of patents in the U.S. and abroad the duration of which varies depending on the jurisdiction in which the patent is filed. While our patents are an important element of our intellectual property strategy and our success, as a whole we are not materially dependent on any one patent or any one technology. We expect to continue to file patent applications when appropriate to protect our proprietary technologies, but we cannot assure you that we will receive patents from pending or future applications.

      Any patents we do obtain may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented and may not provide meaningful protection or other commercial advantage to us. In fact, the semiconductor industry is characterized by frequent claims regarding patent and other intellectual property rights. If any third party makes an enforceable infringement claim against us, we could be required to:

•  discontinue the use of certain processes;

•  cease to provide the services at issue;

•  pay substantial damages;

S-18

•  develop non-infringing technologies; or

•  acquire licenses to the technology we had allegedly infringed.

      We may need to enforce our patents or other intellectual property rights or defend ourselves against claimed infringement of the rights of others through litigation, which could result in substantial cost and diversion of our resources. Furthermore, if we fail to obtain necessary licenses, our business could suffer. We are currently involved in three legal proceedings involving the acquisition of intellectual property rights, or the enforcement of our existing intellectual property rights. We refer you to the matters of Amkor Technology, Inc. v. Carsem, et al., Amkor Technology, Inc. v. Motorola, Inc., and Tessera, Inc. v. Amkor Technology, Inc., which are described in more detail in Note 13 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Fire, Flood or Other Calamity — With Our Operations Conducted in a Limited Number of Facilities, a Fire, Flood or Other Calamity at one of Our Facilities Could Adversely Affect Us.

      We conduct our packaging and testing operations at a limited number of facilities. Significant damage or other impediments to any of these facilities, whether as a result of fire, weather, disease, civil strife, industrial strikes, breakdowns of equipment, difficulties or delays in obtaining materials and equipment, natural disasters, terrorist incidents, industrial accidents or other causes could temporarily disrupt or even shut down our operations, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In the event of such a disruption or shutdown, we may be unable to reallocate production to other facilities in a timely or cost-effective manner (if at all) and may not have sufficient capacity to service customer demands in our other facilities. For example, our operations in Asia are vulnerable to regional typhoons that can bring with them destructive winds and torrential rains, which could in turn cause plant closures and transportation interruptions. In addition, some of the processes that we utilize in our operations place us at risk of fire and other damage. For example, highly flammable gases are used in the preparation of wafers holding semiconductor devices for flip-chip packaging. While we maintain insurance policies for various types of property, casualty and other risks, we do not carry insurance for all the above referred risks and with regard to the insurance we do maintain, we cannot assure you that it would be sufficient to cover all of our potential losses.

SARS, Avian Flu and Other Contagious Diseases — Any Recurrence of SARS or Outbreak of Avian Flu or Other Contagious Disease May Have an Adverse Effect on the Economies and Financial Markets of Certain Asian Countries and May Adversely Affect Our Results of Operations.

      In the first half of 2003, various countries encountered an outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS, which is a highly contagious form of atypical pneumonia. In addition, there have been outbreaks of avian flu and other contagious diseases in various parts of the world. There is no guarantee that an outbreak of SARS, avian flu or other contagious disease will not occur again in the future (and maybe with much more widespread and devastating effects) and that any such future outbreak of SARS, avian flu or other contagious disease, or the measures taken by the governments of the affected countries against such potential outbreaks, will not seriously disrupt our production operations or those of our suppliers and customers, including by resulting in quarantines or closures. In the event of such a facility quarantine or closure, if we were unable to quickly identify alternate manufacturing facilities, this would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations, as would the inability of our suppliers to continue to supply us and our customers continuing to purchase from us.

Continued Control By Existing Stockholders — Mr. James J. Kim and Members of His Family Can Substantially Control The Outcome of All Matters Requiring Stockholder Approval.

      As of March 31, 2006, Mr. James J. Kim, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, and certain Family trusts beneficially owned approximately 46% of our outstanding common stock. This percentage includes beneficial ownership of the securities underlying our 6.25% convertible subordinated notes due 2013. Mr. James J. Kim’s family, acting together, have the ability to effectively determine matters (other

S-19

than interested party transactions) submitted for approval by our stockholders by voting their shares, including the election of all of the members of our Board of Directors. There is also the potential, through the election of members of our Board of Directors, that Mr. Kim’s family could substantially influence matters decided upon by the Board of Directors. This concentration of ownership may also have the effect of impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business consolidation involving us, or discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer for our shares, and could also negatively affect our stock’s market price or decrease any premium over market price that an acquirer might otherwise pay.

Risks Related to the Notes

High Leverage and Restrictive Covenants — Our Substantial Indebtedness Could Adversely Affect Our Financial Condition and Prevent Us from Fulfilling Our Obligations under the Notes.

      We now have, and after this offering will continue to have, a significant amount of debt. In addition, despite current debt levels, the terms of the indentures governing the notes and our other securities do not prohibit us or our subsidiaries from incurring substantially more debt. If new debt is added to our consolidated debt level, the related risks that we now face could intensify.

      As of March 31, 2006, we had approximately $2,182.0 million aggregate principal amount of consolidated indebtedness, assuming completion of the concurrent transactions.

      Covenants in the agreements governing our existing debt, and debt we may incur in the future, may materially restrict our operations, including our ability to incur debt, pay dividends, make certain investments and payments, and encumber or dispose of assets. In addition, financial covenants contained in agreements relating to our existing and future debt could lead to a default in the event our results of operations do not meet our plans and we are unable to amend such financial covenants. A default or event of default under one or more of our revolving credit facilities would also preclude us from borrowing additional funds under such facilities. An event of default under any debt instrument, if not cured or waived, could have a material adverse effect on us.

      Our substantial indebtedness could have important consequences to holders of the notes. For example, it could:

•  make it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to the notes;

•  increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;

•  limit our ability to fund future working capital, capital expenditures, research and development and other general corporate requirements;

•  require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to service payments on our debt;

•  limit our flexibility to react to changes in our business and the industry in which we operate;

•  place us at a competitive disadvantage to any of our competitors that have less debt; and

•  limit, along with the financial and other restrictive covenants in our indebtedness, among other things, our ability to borrow additional funds.

      A substantial amount of our debt will come due prior to the final maturity date of the notes, which we will be required to repay or refinance. Our 5.75% convertible subordinated notes due 2006, our 5.00% convertible subordinated notes due 2007, our 9.25% senior notes due 2008, our 10.5% senior subordinated notes due 2009, our 7.125% senior notes due 2011, amounts outstanding from time to time under our senior secured revolving credit facility, our second lien term loan facility and under the various bank and equipment debt facilities of our subsidiaries will mature prior to the 2011 maturity date of the notes and will be payable in cash unless, in the case of the convertible notes, such holders elect to convert the principal amount of such notes into our common stock. In addition, upon the occurrence of various events like a change of control by us, some or all of

S-20

our outstanding debt obligation may come due prior to their maturity date. For information regarding our liquidity, see “— Risks Related to the Company — Ability to Fund Liquidity Needs.”

Subordination of Notes — The Notes Will Be Subordinated To All of Our Senior Debt.

      The notes are our unsecured obligations, subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of senior debt of all senior debt, whether outstanding on the date of the indenture or incurred thereafter. In addition, because the 10.5% senior subordinated notes are guaranteed by a number of our subsidiaries and the notes offered hereunder are not guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries, the notes are effectively subordinated to the 10.5% senior subordinated notes to the extent of debt and other liabilities of those subsidiary guarantors while such guarantees are in place (see the following risk factor). As a result, in the event of bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization or upon acceleration of the notes due to an event of default and in specific other events, our assets will be available to pay obligations on the notes only after all senior debt has been paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of senior debt has been made. There may not be sufficient assets remaining to pay amounts due on any or all of the notes then outstanding. The indenture governing the notes does not prohibit or limit the incurrence of senior debt by us or the incurrence of other indebtedness and liabilities by us. The incurrence of additional indebtedness and liabilities could adversely affect our ability to pay our obligations on the notes. As of March 31, 2006, we had approximately $1,464.8 million of outstanding senior debt, and $213.5 million of outstanding senior subordinated notes, assuming completion of the concurrent transactions. We anticipate that from time to time we may incur additional indebtedness, including senior debt.

Effective Subordination of the Notes to Liabilities of Our Subsidiaries — Your Right to Receive Payments on the Notes from Funds Provided by Our Subsidiaries is Junior in Right of Payment to the Claims of the Creditors of Our Subsidiaries.

      We conduct a large portion of our operations through our subsidiaries. Accordingly, our ability to meet our cash obligations is dependent upon the ability of our subsidiaries to make cash payments to us. We expect distributions from our subsidiaries to be a large source of funds for payment of the interest on the notes. The notes will not be guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries. As a result, the claims of debt holders and other creditors (including trade creditors) of any subsidiary will generally have priority as to the assets of such subsidiary over the claims of the holders of the notes. In the event of a liquidation of any of our subsidiaries, our right to receive the assets of any such subsidiary (and the resulting right of the holders of the notes to participate in the distribution of the proceeds of those assets) will effectively be subordinated by operation of law to the claims of debt holders and other creditors (including trade creditors) of such subsidiary and holders of such subsidiary’s preferred stock and any guarantees by such subsidiary of our indebtedness, such as the subsidiary guarantees under our secured revolving credit facility, our second lien secured credit facility, our senior notes and our 10.5% senior subordinated notes. In the event of the liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding or any assignment for the benefit of our creditors or a marshaling of our assets or liabilities, holders of the notes may receive ratably less than other such creditors or interest holders. Assuming completion of the concurrent transactions, as if each had occurred as of March 31, 2006, the notes would have been effectively subordinated to $544.2 million of indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries, including trade payables but excluding intercompany obligations.

Repurchase of Notes — We May Not Have the Ability to Repurchase the Notes or Our Other Notes Upon the Occurrence of Certain Events.

      Upon the occurrence of a designated event, we would be required under the indenture governing the notes to repurchase up to all outstanding notes at the option of the holders of such notes. The indentures governing our existing senior notes, senior subordinated notes, convertible notes and the senior notes being offered in the concurrent offering require us to make similar offers to holders of those notes, and the secured second lien credit facility requires us to repay borrowings thereunder, upon certain designated events or changes of control. These events could also constitute an event of default under our secured revolving credit agreement, which would prohibit us from repurchasing any notes. In addition, the terms of certain of our debt agreements

S-21

contain restrictions on making restricted payments, which could prohibit us from purchasing all notes tendered by the holders. Any future credit agreements or other agreements relating to other indebtedness to which we become a party may contain similar restrictions and provisions. We cannot assure you that we would have sufficient financial resources, or would be able to arrange financing, to pay the repurchase price for all notes tendered by the holders. If we do not obtain a consent to the repurchase of the notes, we may remain prohibited from repurchasing the notes. Any failure to repurchase the notes when required will result in an event of default under the indenture, which would in turn be a default under the instruments governing our other debt.

No Prior Market for the Notes — We Cannot Assure You That an Active Trading Market Will Develop for the Notes.

      Immediately following the consummation of this offering, there will not be a public market for the notes. The underwriter has informed us that it intends to make a market in the notes after we have completed this offering. However, the underwriter may cease its market-making at any time. In addition, the liquidity of the trading markets in the notes, and the market prices quoted for the notes, may be adversely affected by changes in:

•  the overall market for convertible securities;

•  our financial performance or prospects; or

•  the prospects for companies in the semiconductor industry generally.

      Moreover, historically, the market for non-investment grade debt has been subject to disruptions that have caused substantial fluctuation in the prices of these securities. As a result, we cannot assure holders of notes that an active trading market will develop for the notes. You should be aware that you may be required to bear the financial risk of an investment in the notes for an indefinite period of time.

Difficulties in Enforcing Judgments in Foreign Jurisdictions.

      Since a large portion of our assets are located outside the U.S., any judgments obtained in the U.S. against us, including judgments with respect to the payment of principal, premium, interest, offer price, or other amounts payable with respect to the notes may be not collectible within the U.S. If holders of notes intend to enforce a judgment obtained in the U.S. against our assets located outside the U.S., they may be subject to additional procedures and other difficulties which would not be required for enforcement of such judgment in the U.S.

No Covenants — The Notes Will Not Be Protected By Restrictive Covenants.

      The indenture governing the notes does not contain any financial or operating covenants that would protect you from several kinds of transactions that may adversely affect you. In particular, the indenture will not contain restrictions on the payment of dividends, the incurrence of indebtedness, transactions with affiliates, incurrence of liens or the issuance or repurchase of securities by us or any of our subsidiaries. We therefore may incur additional debt, including senior debt or secured indebtedness that would be effectively senior to the notes to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt, or indebtedness at the subsidiary level to which the notes would be structurally subordinated.

Make Whole Premium Upon a Change of Control — The Make Whole Premium That May be Payable Upon Conversion in Connection With a Change of Control May Not Adequately Compensate You For the Lost Option Time Value of Your Notes as a Result of Such Change of Control.

      If you convert notes in connection with a change of control (as defined below), we may be required to pay a make whole premium (as defined below) by increasing the conversion rate (as defined below). The make whole payment is described under “Description of the Notes — Conversion — Make Whole Amount.” While the make whole premium is designed to compensate you for the lost option time value of your notes as a result

S-22

of a change of control, the make whole amount is only an approximation of such lost value and may not adequately compensate you for such loss.

Volatility of Common Stock — The Price of Our Common Stock Continues to be Highly Volatile.

      Based on the trading history of our common stock, we believe that the factors described above under “— Risks Related to the Company — Fluctuations in Operating Results and Cash Flows — Our Operating Results and Cash Flows Have Varied and May Vary Significantly as a Result of Factors That We Cannot Control” have caused and are likely to continue to cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially and are likely to have an effect on the trading price of the notes.

      Technology company stocks in general have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that are often unrelated to the operating performance of the subject company itself or technology companies more generally. Market volatility may adversely affect the market price of our common stock, which could affect the price of the notes and limit our ability to raise debt or equity capital or to make acquisitions, which could have an adverse effect on our business.

No Rights as Common Stockholder — If You Hold Notes, You Are Not Entitled to Any Rights With Respect to Our Common Stock, But You Are Subject to All Changes Made With Respect to Our Common Stock.

      If you hold notes, you are not entitled to any rights with respect to our common stock (including, without limitation, voting rights and rights to receive any dividends or other distributions on our common stock), but you are subject to all changes affecting the common stock. You will only be entitled to rights on the common stock if and when we deliver shares of common stock to you in exchange for your notes and in limited cases under the anti-dilution adjustments of the notes. For example, in the event that an amendment is proposed to our certificate of incorporation or by-laws requiring stockholder approval and the record date for determining the stockholders of record entitled to vote on the amendment occurs prior to delivery of the common stock, you will not be entitled to vote on the amendment, although you will nevertheless be subject to any changes in the powers, preferences or special rights of our common stock.

Dilution — The Issuance of Shares of Common Stock Upon Conversion of the Notes May Have a Dilutive Effect.

      The issuance of shares of our common stock upon the conversion of the notes will dilute the ownership interests of existing stockholders. The issuance of shares of our common stock upon conversion of the notes may also have the effect of reducing our net income per share from levels otherwise expected and could reduce the market price of our common stock unless revenue growth or cost savings sufficient to offset the effect of such issuance can be achieved. In addition, the existence of the notes may encourage short selling by market participants due to this potential dilution.

S-23

USE OF PROCEEDS

      We estimate that the net proceeds from this offering will be approximately $183.9 million (or $211.6 million if the underwriter’s option to purchase additional notes is exercised in full), after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and our estimated offering expenses. We intend to use the net proceeds from the offering to redeem, repurchase or otherwise retire $176.5 million of our $200.0 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 10.5% senior subordinated notes due 2009 (together with the payment of the related premium, accrued and unpaid interest to and including the redemption date and related fees and expenses). In the event the underwriter exercises its option to purchase additional notes in full, we intend to use the proceeds to redeem, repurchase or otherwise retire the remaining amount of notes outstanding of our 10.5% senior subordinated notes due 2009, with any remainder (an estimated $3.2 million), to retire other debt or for general corporate or working capital purposes.

DIVIDEND POLICY

      Since our initial public offering, we have never paid a dividend to our stockholders. We currently expect to retain future earnings, if any, for use in the operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. In addition, our secured bank debt agreements and the indentures governing our senior and senior subordinated notes restrict our ability to pay dividends.

S-27

DESCRIPTION OF OTHER INDEBTEDNESS

Debt of Amkor Technology Inc.

     Credit Facilities

      In November 2005, we entered into a $100.0 million first lien revolving credit facility available through November 2009, with a letter of credit sub-limit of $25.0 million. Interest is charged under the credit facility at a floating rate based on the base rate in effect from time to time plus the applicable margins which range from 0.0% to 0.5% for base rate revolving loans, or LIBOR plus 1.5% to 2.25% for LIBOR revolving loans. The interest rate at March 31, 2006, and December 31, 2005, was 6.33% and 5.89%, respectively; however, no borrowings were outstanding under this credit facility. Amkor, along with Unitive Inc. (“Unitive”) and Unitive Electronics, Inc. (“UEI”), are co-borrowers and guarantors under the facility and each granted a first priority lien on substantially all of their assets, excluding inter-company loans and the capital stock of foreign subsidiaries and certain domestic subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2006, we had utilized $2.5 million of the available letter of credit sub-limit, and had $97.5 million available under this facility. The borrowing base for the revolving credit facility is based on the valuation of our eligible accounts receivable. We incur commitment fees on the unused amounts of the revolving credit facility ranging from 0.25% to 0.50%, based on our liquidity. The $100.0 million credit facility replaces our prior $30.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility which we entered into in June 2004. This new facility includes a number of affirmative and negative covenants, which could restrict our operations. If we were to default under the first lien revolving credit facility, we would not be permitted to draw additional amounts, and the banks could accelerate our obligation to pay all outstanding amounts.

      In October 2004, we entered into a $300.0 million second lien term loan with a group of institutional lenders. The term loan bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 450 basis points (9.27% and 8.88% at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively); and matures in October 2010. Guardian Assets, Inc., Unitive, UEI, Amkor International Holdings, LLC (“AIH”), Amkor Technology Limited (“ATL”), P-Four, LLC (“P-Four”) and Amkor Technology Philippines, Inc. (“ATP”) are guarantors of the second lien term loan. The second lien term loans are secured by a second lien on substantially all of our U.S. assets, including the shares of certain of our U.S. subsidiaries and a portion of the shares of some of our foreign subsidiaries. We do not have the option to prepay the second lien term loan until October 2006. If we were to elect to prepay the loan, we would be required to pay a prepayment premium, initially set at 3% of the principal amount prepaid. The second lien term loan agreements contain a number of affirmative and negative covenants which could restrict our operations. If we were to default under the facility, the lenders could accelerate our obligation to pay all outstanding amounts.

     Senior and Senior Subordinated Notes

      In February 2001, we issued $500.0 million of 9.25% notes. As of December 31, 2005, we had purchased $29.5 million of these notes. In January 2006, we purchased an additional $30.0 million of these notes and recorded a gain on extinguishment of $0.7 million which is included in other (income) expense, which was partially offset by the write-off of a proportionate amount of our deferred debt issuance costs of $0.2 million. The 2008 Notes are not redeemable prior to their maturity.

      On April 28, 2006, we commenced a tender offer for up to $200 million aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 9.25% Senior Notes due 2008, or 9.25% notes, at a tender price of $1,035.00 for each $1,000 principal amount of notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the purchase date of the 9.25% notes. As of March 9, 2006, holders of $349.4 million in aggregate principal amount of 9.25% notes have tendered in the tender offer. We have increased the size of the tender offer to up to $360.0 million. Holders who tendered on or before May 9, 2006 will also receive an early tender payment of $20.00 per $1,000 principal amount, which, together with the tender price, equals the total potential consideration of $1,055.00. We intend to apply all of the net proceeds of our concurrent offering of senior notes to fund the tender offer.

      In March 2004, we issued $250.0 million of 7.125% Senior Notes due March 2011 (the “2011 Notes”). The 2011 Notes were priced at 99.321%, yielding an effective interest rate of 7.25%. The 2011 Notes are

S-28

redeemable by us at any time provided we pay the holders a “make-whole” premium and, prior to March 15, 2007, we may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes from the proceeds of one or more equity offerings at a price of 107.125% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.

      In May 2003, we issued $425.0 million of 7.75% Senior Notes due May 2013 (the “2013 Notes”). The 2013 Notes are not redeemable at our option until May 2008.

      In May 1999, we issued $200.0 million of 10.5% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2009 (the “2009 Notes”). As of March 31, 2006, the 2009 Notes were redeemable at our option at a price of 103.5% of the principal of the notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, which percentage was reduced to 101.75% starting May 1, 2006. We intend to apply all of the net proceeds of this offering to redeem, repurchase or otherwise retire a portion of the 2009 Notes, or all but a portion of the net proceeds (an estimated $3.2 million) to retire all of our 2009 notes in the event the underwriter exercises in full its option to purchase additional notes in this offering.

      The senior and senior subordinated notes contain a number of affirmative and negative covenants, which could restrict our operations. As discussed in Note 15 “Subsidiary Guarantors” in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Unitive, UEI, AIH, ATL, P-Four and ATP became guarantors of the senior and senior subordinated notes in 2005 as a result of our acquisition of Unitive and UEI, and the U.S. domestication of AIH, ATL, P-Four and ATP for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We are in the process of consolidating a number of our subsidiaries, and we expect that, before the end of 2006, all of the guarantees of the senior and senior subordinated notes will terminate or be released in accordance with the terms of the indentures governing the notes in connection with such consolidation, although there can be no assurances that we will accomplish this.

     Convertible Subordinated Notes

      In May 2001, we issued $250.0 million of our 5.75% Convertible Subordinated Notes due June 2006 (the “2006 Notes”). The 2006 Notes are convertible into our common stock at a price of $35.00 per share, subject to adjustment. The notes are subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of our senior and senior subordinated debt. In November 2003, we purchased $17.0 million of the 2006 Notes with the proceeds of an equity offering. In November 2005, we purchased an additional $100.0 million of the 2006 Notes with proceeds from the issuance of $100.0 million of 6.25% Convertible Subordinated Notes due December 2013 described below. We purchased such 2006 Notes on the open market at 99.125% and recorded a gain on extinguishment of $0.9 million which is included in other (income) expense. The gain on extinguishment was partially offset by the write-off of a proportionate amount of our deferred debt issuance costs of $0.3 million. In January 2006, we purchased an additional $1.0 million of the 2006 Notes at 99.25%. As of March 31, 2006, the 2006 Notes were redeemable at our option at a price of 102.3% of the principal of the notes plus accrued and unpaid interest.

      In March 2000, we issued $258.8 million of our 5.0% Convertible Subordinated Notes due March 2007 (the “2007 Notes”). The 2007 Notes are convertible into our common stock at any time at a conversion price of $57.34 per share, subject to adjustment. The notes are subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of our senior and senior subordinated debt. In November 2003, we repurchased $112.3 million of our 2007 Notes with the proceeds of an equity offering. We recorded a $2.5 million loss on extinguishment related to premiums paid for the purchase of the 2007 Notes and a $2.2 million charge for the associated unamortized deferred debt issuance costs. These amounts were included in other (income) expense. As of March 31, 2006, the 2007 Notes were redeemable at our option at a price of 100.714% of the principal of the notes plus accrued and unpaid interest.

     Convertible Subordinated Notes, Related Party

      In November 2005, we issued $100.0 million of our 6.25% Convertible Subordinated Notes due December 2013 (the “2013 Notes”) in a private placement to James J. Kim, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and certain Kim family trusts. The 2013 Notes are convertible into our common stock at an initial price of $7.49 per share (the market price of our common stock on the date of issuance of the 2013 Notes was

S-29

$6.20 per share), subject to adjustment. The 2013 Notes are subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of our senior and senior subordinated debt. In March 2006, we filed a registration statement with the SEC registering the notes and the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion, pursuant to the requirements of a registration rights agreement. The proceeds from the sale of the 2013 Notes were used to purchase a portion of the 2006 Notes described above. The notes are not redeemable at our option until 2010.

     Concurrent Offering of Senior Notes

      Concurrent with this offering, we are offering $400.0 million of senior notes due 2016. We expect the holders of such notes to have the right to require us to repurchase such notes following the occurrence of a change of control or certain asset sales and to be redeemable. We intend to apply all of the net proceeds from the senior notes offering to fund the tender offer, or, if any net proceeds remain after funding the tender offer, to retire other debt or for general corporate or working capital purposes.

Debt of Subsidiaries

     Secured Term Loans

      In September 2005, Amkor Technology Taiwan, Inc. (“ATT”) entered into a short-term interim financing arrangement with two Taiwanese banks for New Taiwan (“NT”) $1.0 billion (approximately $30.0 million) (the “Bridge Loan”) in connection with a syndication loan led by the same lenders. In November 2005, ATT finalized the NT$1.8 billion (approximately $53.5 million) syndication loan due November 2010 (the “Syndication Loan”), which accrues interest at the Taiwan 90-Day Commercial Paper Primary Market rate plus 1.2%. At March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the interest rate was 3.05% and 3.0%, respectively. A portion of the Syndication Loan was used to pay off the Bridge Loan. Amkor has guaranteed the repayment of this loan. The documentation governing the Syndication Loan includes a number of affirmative, negative and financial covenants, which could restrict our operations. If we were to default under the facility, the lenders could accelerate our obligation to pay all outstanding amounts.

      In June 2005, UST entered into a NT$400.0 million (approximately $12.2 million) term loan due June 20, 2008 (the “UST Note”), which accrues interest at the Taiwan 90-Day Commercial Paper Secondary Market rate plus 2.25% (4.0% and 3.97% as of March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005). The proceeds of the UST Note were used to satisfy notes previously held by UST. Amkor has guaranteed the repayment of this loan. The documentation governing the UST Note includes a number of affirmative and negative covenants which could restrict our operations. If we were to default under the loan, the lenders could accelerate our obligation to pay all outstanding amounts.

     Secured Equipment and Property Financing

      Our secured equipment and property financing consists of loans secured with specific assets at our Japanese, Singaporean and Chinese subsidiaries. Our credit facility in Japan provides for equipment financing on a three-year basis for each piece of equipment purchased. The Japanese facility accrues interest at 3.59% on all outstanding balances and has maturities at various times between 2006 and 2008. In December 2005, our Singaporean subsidiary entered into a loan with a finance company for $10.0 million, which accrues interest at 4.86% and is due December 2008. The loan is guaranteed by Amkor and is secured by a monetary security deposit and certain of the subsidiary’s equipment. In May 2004, our Chinese subsidiary entered into a $5.5 million credit facility secured with buildings at one of our Chinese production facilities and is payable ratably through January 2012. The interest rate for the Chinese credit facility at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, was 5.58%. These equipment and property financings contain affirmative and negative covenants, which could restrict our operations, and, if we were to default on our obligations under these financings, the lenders could accelerate our obligation to repay amounts borrowed under such financings.

     Revolving Credit Facilities

      Amkor Iwate Corporation, a Japanese subsidiary (“AIC”), has a revolving line of credit with a Japanese bank for 2.5 billion Japanese yen (approximately $21.2 million), maturing in September 2006, that accrues

S-30

interest at the Tokyo Interbank Offering Rate (“TIBOR”) plus 0.6%. The interest rate at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 was 0.67% and 0.66%, respectively, and the line of credit was fully drawn. Amkor has guaranteed the repayment of this line of credit.

      Additionally, AIC has a revolving line of credit at a Japanese bank for 300.0 million Japanese yen (approximately $2.5 million), maturing in June 2006, that accrues interest at TIBOR plus 0.5%. The interest rate at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 was 0.56% and there was $2.5 million and $0.0 million drawn as of March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively.

      In September 2005, our Philippine subsidiary entered into a 300.0 million Philippine peso (approximately $5.3 million) one-year revolving line of credit that accrues interest at LIBOR plus 1.0% (5.2% at December 31, 2005). In January 2006, we repaid all amounts outstanding under the Philippine revolving line of credit, and replaced it with a new revolving line of credit for $5.0 million, maturing in September 2006, that accrues interest at LIBOR plus 1.0% (5.72% at March 31, 2006) and the line was fully drawn as of March 31, 2006.

      In January 2006, Amkor Assembly & Test (Shanghai) Co. Ltd., a Chinese subsidiary (AATS), entered into a $15.0 million working capital facility which bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.25%, maturing in January 2007. The borrowings to date of $9.5 million were used to support working capital. At March 31, 2006, the interest rate ranged from 5.99% to 6.31% based on the dates of borrowing.

      These lines of credit contain certain affirmative and negative covenants, which could restrict our operations. If we were to default on our obligations under any of these lines of credit, we would not be permitted to draw additional amounts, and the lenders could accelerate our obligation to pay all outstanding amounts.

     Other Debt

      Other debt includes debt related to our Taiwanese subsidiaries with fixed and variable interest rates maturing in 2007. Interest rates on this debt ranged from 2.67% to 3.10% as of March 31, 2006, and December 31, 2005.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

      The Notes will be issued under an indenture between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), to be dated as of May 26, 2006, between the Company and the Trustee the “Indenture”). A copy of the Indenture is available as set forth under “— Additional Information” below. We have summarized portions of the Indenture below. This summary is not complete. We urge you to read the Indenture because the Indenture defines your rights as a holder of the Notes. Certain definitions of terms used in the following summary are set forth under “— Certain Definitions” below. As used in this section, references to “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” are to Amkor Technology, Inc., and not to any existing or future Subsidiary, unless the context requires otherwise.

General

      The Notes are:

•  senior subordinated, unsecured, general obligations of the Company;

•  subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future senior debt of the Company, including any amounts outstanding under our secured revolving credit facility, our second lien secured credit facility, our 9.25% senior notes due 2008, our 7.75% senior notes due 2013, our 7.125% senior notes due 2011 and the senior notes being offered in the concurrent offering;

•  effectively subordinated to all existing and future debt and other liabilities of our Subsidiaries, including trade payables;

•  equal in right of payment (“pari passu”) with all existing and future senior subordinated debt of the Company, including our 10.5% senior subordinated notes due 2009, except that our subsidiaries that guarantee the 10.5% senior subordinated notes will not be guarantors of the notes; and

•  senior in right of payment to any subordinated indebtedness of the Company, including our 5.75% convertible subordinated notes due 2006, our 5.0% convertible subordinated notes due 2007 and our 6.25% convertible subordinated notes due 2013.

      The Notes are convertible into shares of our common stock as described under “— Conversion.” The Notes will mature on May 15, 2011 (the “Maturity Date”) and will be limited to an aggregate principal amount of $190 million ($218.5 million if the underwriter exercises its option to purchase additional notes in full). The Notes will be issued in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in fully registered form.

      The Notes will accrue interest at a rate of 2.50% per annum from May 26, 2006, or from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, and accrued and unpaid interest will be payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year beginning November 15, 2006. Interest will be paid to the person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on the May 1 or November 1 immediately preceding the relevant interest payment date. In the case of a Note or portion thereof repurchased in connection with a Designated Event on a repurchase date, during the period from a record date to (but excluding) the next succeeding interest payment date, accrued interest shall be payable (unless such Note or portion thereof is converted) to the holder of the Note or portion thereof repurchased. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

      Principal is payable, and Notes may be presented for conversion, registration of transfer and exchange, without service charge, at our office or agency in New York, New York, which is initially the office or agency of the trustee in New York, New York.

      The Indenture does not contain any financial covenants or any restrictions on the payment of dividends, the incurrence of additional Senior Debt or other indebtedness, or the issuance or repurchase of our securities. The Indenture contains no covenants or other provisions to protect holders of the Notes in the event of a highly leveraged transaction or a change of control, except to the extent described under “— Repurchase at Option of Holders Upon a Designated Event” below. The Notes are not guaranteed by any of our Subsidiaries.

S-32

      The Notes are not entitled to any sinking fund.

Conversion

      The holders of the Notes will be entitled at any time on or before the close of business on the last trading day prior to the Maturity Date of the Notes to convert any Notes or portions thereof into common stock of the Company at an initial conversion rate of 68.5589 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, unless previously purchased. This is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $14.59 per share.

      The conversion rate and the equivalent conversion price in effect at any given time are referred to as the “conversion rate” and the “conversion price,” respectively, and will be subject to adjustment as set forth in “— Conversion Rate Adjustments” below. A holder may convert fewer than all of such holder’s Notes so long as the Notes converted are a multiple of $1,000 principal amount.

      Upon conversion of a Note, a holder will not receive any cash payment of interest and we will not adjust the conversion rate to account for accrued and unpaid interest. Our delivery to the holder of shares of our common stock into which the Note is convertible will be deemed to satisfy our obligation with respect to such Note. Accordingly, any accrued but unpaid interest will be deemed to be paid in full upon conversion, rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. For a discussion of the tax treatment to a holder of receiving our common stock upon conversion, see “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — U.S. Holders — Conversion of Notes.”

      Holders of Notes at the close of business on a regular record date will receive payment of interest payable on the corresponding interest payment date notwithstanding the conversion of such Notes at any time after the close of business on the applicable regular record date. Notes surrendered for conversion by a holder after the close of business on any regular record date but prior to the next interest payment date must be accompanied by payment of an amount equal to the interest that the holder is to receive on the Notes; provided, however, that no such payment need be made if the Notes are surrendered for conversion on or after the final regular record date.

      We are not required to issue fractional shares of common stock upon conversion of the Notes and, in lieu thereof, will pay a cash adjustment based upon the market price of the common stock on the last trading day prior to the date of conversion.

      In the event any holder exercises its right to require us to repurchase Notes upon a Designated Event, such holder’s conversion right will terminate on the close of business on the Designated Event Offer termination date (as defined in the Indenture), unless we default in the payment due upon repurchase. See “— Repurchase at Option of Holders Upon a Designated Event.”

      The right of conversion attaching to any Note may be exercised by the holder by delivering the Note at the specified office of a conversion agent, accompanied by a duly signed and completed notice of conversion, together with any funds that may be required as described above. You can obtain this notice of conversion from the conversion agent, which will initially be the Trustee. Beneficial owners of interests in a Global Note (as defined) may exercise their right of conversion by delivering to The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) the appropriate instruction form for conversion pursuant to DTC’s conversion program. The conversion date shall be the date on which the Note, the duly signed and completed notice of conversion, and any funds that may be required as described above shall have been so delivered. A holder delivering a Note for conversion will not be required to pay any taxes or duties payable in respect of the issue or delivery of common stock on conversion, but will be required to pay any tax or duty which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of the common stock in a name other than the holder of the Note. Certificates representing shares of common stock will not be issued or delivered unless all taxes and duties, if any, payable by the holder have been paid.

      A certificate, or a book-entry transfer through DTC for the number of full shares of our common stock into which any Notes are converted, together with a cash payment for any fractional shares, will be delivered

S-33

through the conversion agent as soon as practicable, but no later than the fifth business day, following the conversion date.

     Conversion Rate Adjustments

      The initial conversion rate will be adjusted for certain events, including:

(1)  the issuance of our common stock as a dividend or distribution to all holders of our common stock, or certain subdivisions and combinations of our common stock, in which event the conversion rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR ₁  = CR ₀ × OS ₁
  OS ₀

                where,

CR 0	=	the conversion rate in effect at the close of business on the record date
CR 1	=	the conversion rate in effect immediately after the record date
OS 0	=	the number of shares of our common stock outstanding at the close of business on the record date
OS 1	=	the number of shares of our common stock that would be outstanding immediately after such event

(2)  the issuance to all or substantially all holders of our common stock of certain rights or warrants to purchase our common stock (or securities convertible into our common stock) for a period expiring 45 days or less from the date of issuance of such rights or warrants at less than (or having a conversion price per share less than) the current market price of our common stock (provided that the conversion rate will be readjusted upon expiration of such rights or warrants to the extent that such rights or warrants are not exercised prior to the expiration), in which event the conversion rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR ₁  = CR ₀ × OS ₀  + X
  OS ₀  + Y

                where,

CR 0	=	the conversion rate in effect at the close of business on the record date
CR 1	=	the conversion rate in effect immediately after the record date
OS 0	=	the number of shares of our common stock outstanding at the close of business on the record date
X	=	the total number of shares of our common stock issuable pursuant to such rights
Y	=	the number of shares of our common stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights divided by the average of the sale prices of our common stock for the ten consecutive trading days prior to the business day immediately preceding the announcement of the issuance of such rights

(3)  the dividend or other distribution to all holders of our common stock in shares of our capital stock (other than common stock) or evidences of our indebtedness or our assets or property (excluding any dividend, distribution or issuance covered by clause (1) or (2) above or (4) or (5) below) in which event the conversion rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR ₁  = CR ₀ × SP ₀
  SP ₀  - FMV

                where,

S-34

CR 0	=	the conversion rate in effect at the close of business on the record date
CR 1	=	the conversion rate in effect immediately after the record date
SP 0	=	the current market price
FMV	=	the fair market value (as determined in good faith by our board of directors) of the shares of capital stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets or property distributed with respect to each outstanding share of our common stock on the record date for such distribution

(4)  the dividend or other distribution to all holders of our common stock of shares of capital stock of, or similar equity interests in, a Subsidiary or other business unit of ours, in which event the conversion rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR ₁  = CR ₀ × FMV ₀  + MP ₀
  MP ₀

                where,

CR 0	=	the conversion rate in effect at the close of business on the record date
CR 1	=	the conversion rate in effect immediately after the record date
FMV 0	=	the average of the sale prices of the capital stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of our common stock applicable to one share of our common stock over the 10 consecutive trading days commencing on and including the fifth trading day after the date on which “ex-distribution trading” commences for such dividend or distribution on the Nasdaq National Market or such other national or regional exchange or market on which the securities are then listed or quoted (the “ex date”) and if shares of such capital stock or equity interest are not so listed or quoted, the fair market value as determined in good faith by our board of directors
MP 0	=	the average of the closing sale prices of our common stock over the 10 consecutive trading days commencing on and including the fifth trading day after the ex date

(5)  dividends or other distributions consisting exclusively of cash to all holders of our common stock, in which event the conversion rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR ₁  = CR ₀ × SP ₀
  SP ₀  - C

                where,

CR 0	=	the conversion rate in effect at the close of business on the record date
CR 1	=	the conversion rate in effect immediately after the record date
SP 0	=	the current market price
C	=	the amount in cash per share we distribute to holders of our common stock

(6)  we or one or more of our Subsidiaries make purchases of our common stock pursuant to a tender offer or exchange offer by us or one of our Subsidiaries to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of our common stock exceeds the current market price per share of our common stock on the trading day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (the “expiration date”), in which event the conversion rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR ₁  = CR ₀ × FMV + (SP ₁  × OS ₁ )   OS ₀  × SP ₁

                where,

S-35

CR 0	=	the conversion rate in effect on the expiration date
CR 1	=	the conversion rate in effect immediately after the expiration date
FMV	=	the fair market value (as determined by our board of directors in good faith) of the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration paid or payable for shares validly tendered or exchanged and not withdrawn as of the expiration date (the “purchased shares”)
OS 1	=	the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after the expiration date less any purchased shares
OS 0	=	the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after the expiration date, including any purchased shares
SP 1	=	the closing sale price of our common stock on the trading day next succeeding the expiration date

      “Current market price” of our common stock on any day means the average of the sale price of our common stock for each of the 10 consecutive trading days ending on the earlier of the day in question and the day before the ex-date with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, “ex-date” means the first date on which the shares of our common stock trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such issuance or distribution.

      “Record date” means, for purpose of this section, with respect to any dividend, distribution or other transaction or event in which the holders of our common stock have the right to receive any cash, securities or other property or in which our common stock (or other applicable security) is exchanged for or converted into any combination of cash, securities or other property, the date fixed for determination of holders of our common stock entitled to receive such cash, securities or other property (whether such date is fixed by our board of directors or by statute, contract or otherwise).

      To the extent that we have a rights plan in effect upon conversion of the Notes into common stock, in lieu of a conversion rate adjustment, you will receive, in addition to the common stock, the rights under the rights plan, unless prior to any conversion, the rights have separated from the common stock, in which case the conversion rate will be adjusted at the time of separation as if we distributed, to all holders of our common stock, shares of our capital stock, evidences of indebtedness or assets as described above, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

      No adjustment in the conversion rate will be required unless such adjustment would require a change of at least 1% in the conversion rate then in effect at such time. Any adjustment that would otherwise be required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.

      Except as stated above, the conversion rate will not be adjusted for the issuance of our common stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock or carrying the right to purchase any of the foregoing.

      In the case of any recapitalization, reclassification or change of our common stock (other than changes resulting from a change in par value or a subdivision or combination), a consolidation, merger or combination involving us, a sale, lease or other transfer to another corporation of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of ours and our Subsidiaries, in each case as a result of which holders of our common stock are entitled to receive stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) with respect to or in exchange for our common stock, the holders of the Notes then outstanding will be entitled thereafter to convert those Notes into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that they would have owned or been entitled to receive upon such recapitalization, reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale, lease, transfer or statutory share exchange had such Notes been converted into our common stock immediately prior to such transaction. In the event holders of common stock have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in a recapitalization, reclassification, change, consolidation, merger combination, sale or lease or other transfer we will make adequate provision whereby the holders of the Notes shall have the

S-36

opportunity, on a timely basis, to determine the form of consideration into which all of the Notes, treated as a single class, shall be convertible. Such determination shall be based on the blended, weighted average of elections made by holders of the Notes who participate in such determination and shall be subject to any limitations to which all of the holders of common stock are subject to, such as pro rata reductions applicable to any portion of the consideration payable. Certain of the foregoing events may also constitute or result in a Designated Event requiring us to offer to repurchase the Notes. See “— Repurchase at Option of Holders Upon a Designated Event.” We will agree in the Indenture not to become a party to any such transaction unless its terms are consistent with the foregoing.

      In the event of a taxable distribution to holders of common stock (or other transaction) that results in any adjustment of the conversion rate, the holders of Notes may, in certain circumstances, be deemed to have received a distribution subject to United States income tax as a dividend. Moreover, in certain other circumstances, the absence of such an adjustment of the conversion rate may result in a taxable dividend to the holders of common stock. See “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.”

      We may from time to time, to the extent permitted by law and subject to applicable rules of the Nasdaq National Market, increase the conversion rate of the Notes by any amount for any period of at least 20 days. In that case we will give at least 15 days’ notice of such increase. We may make such increases in the conversion rate, in addition to those set forth above, as our board of directors deems advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of our common stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock (or rights to acquire stock) or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes.

     Make Whole Amount

      If a transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) of the definition of Change of Control (or if a transaction that but for the 105% trading price exception contained in clause (x) of the proviso to such definition would be a Change of Control) (as set forth under “— Repurchase at Option of Holders Upon a Designated Event”) occurs, and a holder elects to convert its Notes in connection with such transaction, we will increase the applicable conversion rate for the Notes surrendered for conversion by a number of additional shares of common stock (the “additional shares”), as described below. A conversion of Notes will be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with” such transaction if the notice of conversion of the Notes is received by the conversion agent during the period from and including the date that is 10 business days prior to the anticipated effective date of the transaction (which anticipated effective date shall be announced by the Company in any notice or release announcing the applicable change of control transaction) up to and including the business day prior to the repurchase date for the Designated Event Offer (described under “— Repurchase at Option of Holders Upon a Designated Event”).

      The number of additional shares will be determined by reference to the table below and is based on the date on which such change of control transaction becomes effective (the “effective date”) and the price (the “stock price”) paid per share of our common stock in such transaction. If the holders of our common stock receive only cash in the change of control transaction, the stock price shall be the cash amount paid per share. Otherwise the stock price shall be the average of the sale prices of our common stock on the 10 consecutive trading days up to but not including the effective date.

      The stock prices set forth in the first row of the table (i.e., the column headers) will be adjusted as of any date on which the conversion rate of the Notes is adjusted. The adjusted stock prices will equal the stock prices applicable immediately prior to such adjustment multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the conversion rate immediately prior to the adjustment giving rise to the stock price adjustment and the denominator of which is the conversion rate as so adjusted. Our obligation to deliver the additional shares will be subject to adjustment in the same manner as the conversion rate as set forth under “— Conversion Rate Adjustments.”

S-37

      The following table sets forth the stock price and number of additional shares to be received per $1,000 principal amount of Notes:

	Effective Price
Effective Date	$11.22		$12.50		$14.00		$15.50		$17.00		$18.50		$20.00		$25.00		$30.00		$35.00		$40.00

      The exact stock price and effective dates may not be set forth on the table, in which case:

•  if the stock price is between two stock price amounts on the table or the effective date is between two dates on the table, the additional premium will be determined by straight-line interpolation between the number of additional shares set forth for the higher and lower stock price amounts and the two dates, as applicable, based on a 365 day year;

•  if the stock price is equal to or in excess of $40.00 per share (subject to adjustment), no additional shares will be issued upon conversion; and

•  if the stock price is less than $11.22 per share (the last bid price of our common stock on the date of this prospectus supplement) (subject to adjustment), no additional shares will be issued upon conversion.

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the total number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion exceed 89.1265 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the conversion rate as set forth under “— Conversion Rate Adjustments.”

      Our obligation to deliver the additional shares could be considered a penalty, in which case the enforceability thereof would be subject to general principles of reasonableness of economic remedies.

      The payment of principal, premium and interest, if any, on the Notes and all other payments in respect of the Notes will be subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Senior Debt of the Company. The Notes will rank equal in right of payment to our 10.5% senior subordinated notes due 2009, except that the subsidiaries that guarantee the 10.5% senior subordinated notes will not be guarantors under the notes.

      The holders of Senior Debt will be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Obligations due in respect of Senior Debt (including interest, expense reimbursements and indemnities after the commencement of any such proceeding at the rate specified in the applicable Senior Debt, whether or not such claims are allowed, allowable or enforceable in such proceeding and even if disallowed therein) before the holders of the Notes will be entitled to receive any payment with respect to the Notes (except that holders of the Notes may receive and retain Permitted Junior Securities and, in the event of a satisfaction and discharge of the indenture, payments by the Trustee of monies held in trust by it to be applied to payment to the holders of the Notes), in the event of any distribution to creditors of the Company:

•  in a liquidation or dissolution of the Company;

•  in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding relating to the Company or its property;

•  in an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or

•  in any marshalling of the Company’s assets and liabilities.

S-38

      The Company also may not make any payment in respect of the Notes (except in Permitted Junior Securities or in the event of a satisfaction and discharge of the indenture, payments by the Trustee of monies held in trust by it to be applied to payment to the holders of the Notes) if:

•  a payment default on Senior Debt occurs and is continuing beyond any applicable grace period in the agreement, indenture or other document governing such Senior Debt; or

•  any other default occurs and is continuing on Designated Senior Debt that permits holders of the Designated Senior Debt to accelerate its maturity and the Trustee receives a notice of such default (a “Payment Blockage Notice”) from the holders of any Designated Senior Debt or their agent or representative.

      Payments on the Notes may and shall be resumed:

•  in the case of a payment default, upon the date on which such default is cured or waived; and

•  in case of a nonpayment default, the earlier of the date on which such nonpayment default is cured or waived or 179 days after the date on which the applicable Payment Blockage Notice is received, unless the maturity of any Designated Senior Debt has been accelerated.

      No new Payment Blockage Notice may be delivered unless and until (a) 360 days have elapsed since the effectiveness of the immediately prior Payment Blockage Notice and (b) all scheduled payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the notes that have come due have been paid in full in cash. No nonpayment default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment Blockage Notice to the Senior Subordinated Notes Trustee shall be, or be made, the basis for a subsequent Payment Blockage Notice unless such default shall have been cured or waived for a period of not less than 180 days.

      If the Notes Trustee or any holder of the Notes receives a payment in respect of the Notes (except in Permitted Junior Securities or in the event of a satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture, payments by the Trustee of monies held in trust by it to be applied to payment to the holders of the Notes) or when:

•  the payment is prohibited by these subordination provisions; and

•  the Notes Trustee or the holder has actual knowledge that the payment is prohibited;

the Notes Trustee or the Holder, as the case may be, shall hold the payment in trust for the benefit of the holders of Senior Debt. Upon the proper written request of the holders of Senior Debt, the Notes Trustee or the Holder, as the case may be, shall deliver the amounts in trust to the holders of Senior Debt or their proper representative.

      The Company must promptly notify holders of Senior Debt, if payment of the Notes is accelerated because of an Event of Default. As a result of the subordination provisions described above, in the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of the Company, holders of the Notes may recover less ratably than creditors of the Company who are holders of Senior Debt, including the Senior Notes. See “Risk Factors — Subordination of Notes — The Notes Will Be Subordinated To All of Our Senior Debt.” The subordination provisions of the Indenture cannot be amended without the written consent of holders of all Senior Debt.

      As of March 31, 2006, assuming completion of the concurrent transactions, we would have had approximately $1,464.8 million of outstanding indebtedness that would have constituted Senior Debt, and the debt and other liabilities of our Subsidiaries (excluding intercompany liabilities and obligations of a type not required to be reflected on the balance sheet of such Subsidiary in accordance with GAAP) that would effectively have been senior to the Notes would have been approximately $544.2 million. The Indenture will not limit the amount of additional indebtedness, including Senior Debt, that we can create, incur, assume or guarantee, nor will the Indenture limit the amount of indebtedness and other liabilities that any Subsidiary can create, incur, assume or guarantee.

Repurchase at Option of Holders Upon a Designated Event

      Upon the occurrence of a Designated Event, each holder of Notes will have the right to require us to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of such holder’s Notes pursuant to

S-39

the offer described below (the “Designated Event Offer”) at an offer price in cash equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to (but excluding) the date of purchase (the “Designated Event Payment”). Within 20 days following any Designated Event, we will mail a notice to each holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Designated Event and offering to repurchase Notes pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in such notice.

      We will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Designated Event. Rule 13e-4 under the Exchange Act requires, among other things, the dissemination of certain information to security holders in the event of an issuer tender offer and may apply in the event that the repurchase option becomes available to holders of the Notes. We will comply with this rule to the extent applicable at that time.

      On the date specified for termination of the Designated Event Offer, we will, to the extent lawful, (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Designated Event Offer, (ii) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Designated Event Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so accepted together with an officers’ certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof being purchased by us.

      The foregoing provisions would not necessarily afford holders of the Notes protection in the event of highly leveraged or other transactions involving us that may adversely affect holders.

      The right to require us to repurchase Notes as a result of a Designated Event could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a Change of Control or other attempts to acquire control of the Company. Consequently, this right may render more difficult or discourage a merger, consolidation or tender offer (even if such transaction is supported our Board of Directors or is favorable to the stockholders), the assumption of control by a holder of a large block of our shares and the removal of incumbent management.

      Except as described above with respect to a Designated Event, the Indenture does not contain provisions that permit the holder of the Notes to require that we repurchase the Notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar restructuring. Subject to the limitation on mergers and consolidations described below, we or our Subsidiaries could in the future enter into certain transactions, including refinancings, certain recapitalizations, acquisitions, the sale of all or substantially all of our or their assets, the liquidation of the Company or similar transactions, that would not constitute a Designated Event under the Indenture, but that would increase the amount of Senior Debt (or any other indebtedness) outstanding at such time or substantially reduce or eliminate our assets.

      The terms of our existing or future credit or other agreements relating to debt (including Senior Debt) restrict and in certain circumstances may prohibit us from purchasing any Notes and may also provide that a Designated Event, as well as certain other change of control events with respect to us, would constitute an event of default thereunder. In the event a Designated Event occurs at a time when we are prohibited from purchasing Notes, we could seek the consent of our then-existing lenders to the purchase of Notes or could attempt to refinance the debt that contain the prohibition. If we do not obtain such a consent or repay such debt, we would remain prohibited from purchasing Notes. In that case, our failure to purchase tendered Notes would constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture, which may, in turn, constitute a further default under the terms of other debt that we have entered into or may enter into from time to time. In such circumstances, the subordination provisions in the Indenture would likely restrict payments to the holders of Notes.

      A “Designated Event” will be deemed to have occurred upon a Change of Control or a Termination of Trading.

S-40

      A “Change of Control” will be deemed to have occurred when:

(i)

any Person has become an Acquiring Person,

(ii)

the Company consolidates with or merges into any other Person, or conveys, transfers, or leases all or substantially all of its assets to any person, or any other Person merges into the Company, and, in the case of any such transaction, the outstanding common stock of the Company is exchanged as a result, unless our stockholders immediately before such transaction own, directly or indirectly immediately following such transaction, at least a majority of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Person resulting from such transaction in substantially the same proportion as their ownership of the Voting Stock immediately before such transaction, or

(iii)  any time the Continuing Directors do not constitute a majority of our Board of Directors (or, if applicable, a successor corporation to the Company);

provided that a Change of Control shall not be deemed to have occurred if either (x) the last sale price of the common stock for any five trading days during the 10 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the Change of Control is equal to at least 105% of the applicable conversion price in effect on the date of such Change of Control or (y) at least 90% of the consideration (excluding cash payments for fractional shares) in the transaction or transactions constituting the Change of Control consists of shares of common stock that are, or upon issuance will be, traded on a United States national securities exchange or approved for trading on an established automated over-the-counter trading market in the United States.

      The definition of Change of Control includes a phrase relating to the lease, transfer or conveyance of “all or substantially all” of our assets. Although there is a developing body of case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all,” there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of a holder of Notes to require us to repurchase such Notes as a result of a lease, transfer or conveyance of less than all of our assets to another person or group may be uncertain.

      “Continuing Directors” means, as of any date of determination, any member of our Board of Directors who (i) was a member of such Board of Directors on the date of the Indenture or (ii) was nominated for election or elected to such Board of Directors with the approval of a majority of the Continuing Directors who were members of such Board at the time of such nomination or election.

      A “Termination of Trading” will be deemed to have occurred if the common stock (or other common stock into which the Notes are then convertible) is neither listed for trading on a United States national securities exchange nor approved for quotation on the Nasdaq National Market nor approved for trading on an established automated over-the-counter trading market in the United States.

Merger and Consolidation

      The Indenture will provide that we may not, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, consolidate or merge or combine with or into (whether or not we are the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our properties or assets in one or more related transactions to, another corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety unless:

      (a) either (i) the Company shall be the surviving or continuing corporation or (ii) the corporation formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger or combination (if other than the Company) or the corporation which acquires by sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties and assets (x) is a corporation organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia and (y) assumes the due and punctual payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, if any, with respect to, all the Notes and the performance of every covenant of the Company under the Notes and the Indenture pursuant to a supplemental indenture in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee;

      (b) immediately after such transaction no Default or Event of Default exists; and

S-41

      (c) we or such person shall have delivered to the Trustee an officers’ certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that such transaction and the supplemental indenture comply with the Indenture and that all conditions precedent in the Indenture relating to such transaction have been satisfied.

      For purposes of the foregoing, the transfer (by lease, assignment, sale or otherwise, in a single transaction or series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of one or more of our Subsidiaries, the capital stock of which constitutes all or substantially all of our properties and assets, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of our properties and assets.

      Upon any consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, conveyance, lease, transfer or other disposition in accordance with the foregoing, the successor corporation formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or to which such sale, assignment, conveyance, lease, transfer or other disposition is made will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under the Indenture with the same effect as if such successor had been named as the Company therein, and thereafter (except in the case of a sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition) the predecessor corporation will be relieved of all further obligations and covenants under the Indenture and the Notes.

Events of Default and Remedies

      An Event of Default is defined in the Indenture as being:

      (i) default in payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, on the Notes, whether or not such payment is prohibited by the subordination provisions of the Indenture;

      (ii) default for 30 days in payment of any installment of interest on with respect to the Notes, whether or not such payment is prohibited by the subordination provisions of the Indenture;

      (iii) our default for 60 days after notice in the observance or performance of any other covenants in the Indenture;

      (iv) default in the payment of the Designated Event Payment in respect of the Notes on the date therefor, whether or not such payment is prohibited by the subordination provisions of the Indenture;

      (v) our failure to provide timely notice of a Designated Event;

      (vi) our failure or the failure of any Material Subsidiary to make any payment at maturity, including any applicable grace period, in respect of indebtedness for borrowed money of, or guaranteed or assumed by, us or any Material Subsidiary, which payment is in an amount in excess of $20,000,000, and continuance of such failure for 30 days after notice;

      (vi) our default or the default by any Material Subsidiary with respect to any such indebtedness, which default results in the acceleration of any such indebtedness of an amount in excess of $20,000,000 without such indebtedness having been paid or discharged or such acceleration having been cured, waived, rescinded or annulled for 30 days after notice; or

      (vii) certain events involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company or any Material Subsidiary.

      If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (vii) above with respect to us) occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee, by written notice to us, or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, by written notice to us and the Trustee, may declare the unpaid principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Notes then outstanding to be due and payable. Upon such declaration, such principal amount, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will become immediately due and payable, notwithstanding anything contained in the Indenture or the Notes to the contrary, but subject to the provisions limiting payment described in “— Subordination.” If any Event of Default specified in clause (vii) above occurs with respect to us, all unpaid principal of, and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes then outstanding will automatically become due and payable, subject to the provisions described in “— Subordination,” without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holder of Notes.

S-42

      Holders of the Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, the Trustee is under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the holders, unless such holders have offered to the Trustee a security or an indemnity satisfactory to it against any cost, expense or liability. Subject to all provisions of the Indenture and applicable law, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and is known to the Trustee, the Indenture requires the Trustee to mail a notice of Default or Event of Default to each holder within 60 days of the occurrence of such Default or Event of Default: provided, however, that the Trustee may withhold from the holders notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the Notes) if it determines in good faith that withholding notice is in their interest. The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may rescind any acceleration of the Notes and its consequences if all existing Events of Default (other than the nonpayment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Notes that has become due solely by virtue of such acceleration) have been cured or waived and if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

      The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may, on behalf of the holders of all the Notes, waive any existing or past Default or Event of Default under the Indenture and its consequences, except Default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes (other than the non-payment of principal of, premium, if any, interest, if any, and interest on the Notes that has become due solely by virtue of an acceleration that has been duly rescinded as provided above) or in respect of a covenant or provision of the Indenture that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of all holders of Notes.

      We are required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture and we are required, upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default.

Book-Entry; Delivery and Form; Global Note

      The Notes are evidenced by one or more global Notes deposited with the trustee as custodian for DTC, and registered in the name of Cede & Co., as DTC’s nominee. Record ownership of the global Notes may be transferred, in whole or in part, only to another nominee of DTC or to a successor of DTC or its nominee, except as set forth below.

      Ownership of beneficial interests in a global Note will be limited to persons that have accounts with DTC or its nominee (“participants”) or persons that may hold interests through participants. Transfers between direct DTC participants will be effected in the ordinary way in accordance with DTC’s rules and will be settled in same-day funds. Holders may also beneficially own interests in the global Notes held by DTC through certain banks, brokers, dealers, trust companies and other parties that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a direct DTC participant, either directly or indirectly.

      So long as Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, is the registered owner of the global Notes, Cede & Co. for all purposes will be considered the sole holder of the global Notes. Except as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in the global Notes will not be entitled to have certificates registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of certificates in definitive form, and will not be considered holders thereof. The laws of some states require that certain persons take physical delivery of securities in definitive form. Consequently, the ability to transfer a beneficial interest in the global Notes to such persons may be limited.

      We will wire, through the facilities of the trustee, principal, premium, if any, and interest payments on the global Notes to Cede & Co., the nominee for DTC, as the registered owner of the global Notes. We, the

S-43

Trustee and any paying agent will have no responsibility or liability for paying amounts due on the global Notes to owners of beneficial interests in the global Notes.

      It is DTC’s current practice, upon receipt of any payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the global Notes, to credit participants’ accounts on the payment date in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the Notes represented by the global Notes, as shown on the records of DTC, unless DTC believes that it will not receive payment on the payment date. Payments by DTC participants to owners of beneficial interests in Notes represented by the global Notes held through DTC participants will be the responsibility of DTC participants, as is now the case with securities held for the accounts of customers registered in “street name.”

      If a holder would like to convert Notes into common stock pursuant to the terms of the Notes, the holder should contact the holder’s broker or other direct or indirect DTC participant to obtain information on procedures, including proper forms and cut-off times, for submitting those requests.

      Because DTC can only act on behalf of DTC participants, who in turn act on behalf of indirect DTC participants and other banks, a holder’s ability to pledge the holder’s interest in the Notes represented by global Notes to persons or entities that do not participate in the DTC system, or otherwise take actions in respect of such interest, may be affected by the lack of a physical certificate.

      Neither we nor the trustee (nor any registrar, paying agent or conversion agent under the indenture) will have any responsibility for the performance by DTC or direct or indirect DTC participants of their obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations. DTC has advised us that it will take any action permitted to be taken by a holder of Notes, including, without limitation, the presentation of Notes for conversion as described below, only at the direction of one or more direct DTC participants to whose account with DTC interests in the global Notes are credited and only for the principal amount of the Notes for which directions have been given.

      DTC has advised us as follows: DTC is a limited purpose trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code and a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC was created to hold securities for DTC participants and to facilitate the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between DTC participants through electronic book-entry changes to the accounts of its participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates. Participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies and clearing corporations and may include certain other organizations such as the initial purchaser of the Notes. Certain DTC participants or their representatives, together with other entities, own DTC. Indirect access to the DTC system is available to others such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through, or maintain a custodial relationship with, a participant, either directly or indirectly.

      Although DTC has agreed to the foregoing procedures in order to facilitate transfers of interests in the global Notes among DTC participants, it is under no obligation to perform or continue to perform such procedures, and such procedures may be discontinued at any time. If DTC is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depositary and a successor depositary is not appointed by us within 90 days, we will cause Notes to be issued in definitive registered form in exchange for the global Notes. None of us, the trustee or any of their respective agents will have any responsibility for the performance by DTC, direct or indirect DTC participants of their obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations, including maintaining, supervising or reviewing the records relating to, or payments made on account of, beneficial ownership interests in global Notes.

      According to DTC, the foregoing information with respect to DTC has been provided to its participants and other members of the financial community for informational purposes only and is not intended to serve as a representation, warranty or contract modification of any kind.

S-44

Certificated Notes

      We will issue the Notes in definitive certificated form if DTC notifies us that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary or DTC ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary is not appointed by us within 90 days. In addition, beneficial interests in a global Note may be exchanged for definitive certificated Notes upon request by or on behalf of DTC in accordance with customary procedures. The Indenture permits us to determine at any time and in our sole discretion that Notes shall no longer be represented by global Notes. DTC has advised us that, under its current practices, it would notify its participants of our request, but will only withdraw beneficial interests from the global Notes at the request of each DTC participant. We would issue definitive certificates in exchange for any such beneficial interests withdrawn.

      Any Note that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence is exchangeable for Notes registered in the names which DTC will instruct the trustee. It is expected that DTC’s instructions may be based upon directions received by DTC from its participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in that global Note. Subject to the foregoing, a global Note is not exchangeable except for a global Note or global Notes of the same aggregate denominations to be registered in the name of DTC or its nominee.

Amendment, Supplement and Waiver

      Except as provided in the next two succeeding paragraphs, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Notes), and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Notes).

      Without the consent of each holder affected, an amendment or waiver may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting holder):

      (a) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver,

      (b) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note,

      (c) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, if any, on any Notes,

      (d) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration),

      (e) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Indenture and the Notes,

      (f) make any change in the provisions of the Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of, premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the Notes,

      (g) except as permitted by the Indenture, reduce the applicable conversion rate or, other than as set forth in the next paragraph, modify the provisions of the Indenture relating to conversion of the Notes in a manner adverse to the holders thereof, or

      (h) make any change to the abilities of holders of Notes to enforce their rights under the Indenture or the provisions of clause (a) through (g) hereof.

      In addition, any amendment to the provisions of the Indenture that relate to subordination will require the consent of the holders of at least 75% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding if such amendment would adversely affect the rights of holders of Notes.

S-45

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of any holder of Notes, we and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Notes to:

      (a) cure any ambiguity, or correct or supplement any defect or inconsistency or make any other changes in the provisions of the Indenture which we and the Trustee may deem necessary or desirable, provided such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of the holders of the Notes,

      (b) provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes,

      (c) provide for the assumption of our obligations to holders of Notes in the circumstances required under the Indenture as described under “— Merger and Consolidation,”

      (d) provide for conversion and/or repurchase rights of holders of Notes in certain events such as a consolidation, merger or sale of all or substantially all of our assets,

      (e) increase the applicable conversion rate,

      (f) make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the holders of Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such holder, or

      (g) comply with requirements of the Commission in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.

Satisfaction and Discharge

      We may discharge our obligations, except as expressly stated in the Indenture, under the Indenture while Notes remain outstanding if all outstanding Notes will become due and payable at, or within one year of, their scheduled maturity and we have (a) deposited with the Trustee an amount sufficient to pay and discharge all outstanding Notes on the date of their scheduled maturity or (b) paid all other sums then payable by us under the Indenture.

Governing Law

      The Indenture will provide that the Notes will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Transfer and Exchange

      A holder may transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and we may require a holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. We are not required to transfer or exchange any Note selected for repurchase by us.

      The registered holder of a Note will be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

Reports

      Whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, so long as any Notes are outstanding, we will file with the Commission and furnish to the Trustee and the holders of Notes all quarterly and annual financial information (without exhibits) required to be contained in a filing with the SEC on Forms 10-Q and 10-K, including a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and, with respect to the annual consolidated financial statements only, a report thereon by our independent auditors. We shall not be required to file any report or other information with the SEC if the SEC does not permit such filing, although such reports will be required to be furnished to the Trustee.

S-46

The Trustee

      The Indenture will provide that, except during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee will perform only such duties as are specifically set forth in the Indenture. In case an Event of Default known to the Trustee shall occur (and shall not be cured), the Trustee will be required to exercise its powers with the degree of care and skill of a prudent person in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. Subject to such provisions, the Trustee is under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture at the request of any of the holders of Notes, unless they shall have offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it.

      The Indenture will contain certain limitations on the rights of the Trustee, should it become a creditor of ours, to obtain payment of claims in certain cases or to realize on certain property received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. The Trustee will be permitted to engage in other transactions, provided, however, that if it acquires any conflicting interest, it must eliminate such conflict or resign.

Additional Information

      Anyone who purchases Notes pursuant to this prospectus supplement may obtain a copy of the Indenture without charge by writing to Amkor Technology, Inc., 1900 South Price Road, Chandler, AZ, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

Certain Definitions

      “Acquiring Person” means any person (as defined in Section 13(d) (3) of the Exchange Act) who or which, together with all affiliates and associates (each as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act), becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and l3d-5 under the Exchange Act and as further defined below) of shares of common stock or other of our voting securities having more than 50% of the total voting power of our Voting Stock; provided, however, that an Acquiring Person shall not include (i) the Company, (ii) any of our Subsidiaries, (iii) any Permitted Holder, (iv) an underwriter engaged in a firm commitment underwriting in connection with a public offering of our Voting Stock or (v) any current or future employee or director benefit plan of ours or any of our Subsidiaries or any entity holding our common stock for or pursuant to the terms of any such plan.

CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

      This section is a discussion of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to the purchase, ownership and disposition of the notes and the common stock into which the notes may be converted. This summary does not provide a complete analysis of all potential tax considerations. The information provided below is based on existing U.S. federal income tax authorities, all of which are subject to change or differing interpretations, possibly with retroactive effect. There can be no assurances that the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) will not challenge one or more of the tax consequences described herein, and we have not obtained, nor do we intend to obtain, a ruling from the IRS with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of purchasing, owning or disposing of the notes or common stock. The summary generally applies only to beneficial owners of the notes that purchase their notes in this offering for an amount equal to the issue price of the notes, which is the first price at which a substantial amount of the notes is sold for money to the public (not including sales to bond houses, brokers or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers), and that hold the notes and common stock as “capital assets” (generally, for investment). This discussion does not purport to deal with all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular beneficial owner in light of the beneficial owner’s circumstances (for example, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax provisions of the Code, or a U.S. Holder (as defined below) whose “functional currency” is not the U.S. dollar). Also, it is not intended to be wholly applicable to all categories of investors, some of which may be subject to special rules (such as dealers in securities or currencies, traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting, banks, thrifts, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, insurance companies, tax-exempt entities, tax-deferred or other retirement accounts, and persons holding notes or common stock as part of a hedging or conversion transaction or a straddle, or persons deemed to sell notes or common stock under the constructive sale provisions of the Code). Finally, the summary does not describe the effect of the U.S. federal estate and gift tax laws or the effects of any applicable foreign, state or local laws.

      INVESTORS CONSIDERING THE PURCHASE OF NOTES SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE APPLICATION OF THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS TO THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATIONS AND THE CONSEQUENCES OF U.S. FEDERAL ESTATE OR GIFT TAX LAWS, FOREIGN, STATE AND LOCAL LAWS, AND TAX TREATIES.

U.S. Holders

      As used herein, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of the notes or the common stock into which the notes may be converted that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes is (1) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States, (2) a corporation, or an entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any state of the United States, including the District of Columbia, or (3) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source. A trust is a U.S. Holder if it (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. court and the control of one of more U.S. persons or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person. The term “U.S. Holder” also includes certain former citizens and residents of the United States. A “Non-U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of the notes or the common stock into which the notes may be converted (other than a partnership or an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is not a U.S. Holder. If a partnership (including for this purpose any entity or arrangement, domestic or foreign, treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is a beneficial owner of a note or common stock acquired upon conversion of a note, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. A beneficial owner of a note or common stock acquired upon conversion of a note that is a partnership, and partners in such partnership, should consult their own tax advisors about the U.S. federal income tax consequences of purchasing, owning and disposing of the notes and the common stock into which the notes may be converted.

S-51

Taxation of Interest

      U.S. Holders will be required to recognize as ordinary income any interest paid or accrued on the notes, in accordance with their regular method of tax accounting. In general, if the terms of a debt instrument entitle a holder to receive payments (other than fixed periodic interest) that exceed the issue price of the instrument by more than a de minimis amount, the holder will be required to include such excess in income as “original issue discount” over the term of the instrument, irrespective of the holder’s regular method of tax accounting. We believe that the notes will not be issued with original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Disposition of Notes

      A U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss if the holder disposes of a note in a sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition. The U.S. Holder’s gain or loss generally will equal the difference between the proceeds received by the holder (other than amounts attributable to accrued but unpaid interest) and the holder’s tax basis in the note. The U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the note will generally equal the amount the holder paid for the note. The portion of any proceeds that is attributable to accrued interest will not be taken into account in computing the U.S. Holder’s capital gain or loss. Instead, that portion will be recognized as ordinary interest income to the extent that the U.S. Holder has not previously included the accrued interest in income. The gain or loss recognized by the U.S. Holder on the disposition of the note will be long-term capital gain or loss if the holder held the note for more than one year, or short-term capital gain or loss if the holder held the note for one year or less, at the time of the transaction. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate taxpayers currently are taxed at a maximum 15 percent federal rate (effective for tax years through 2008, after which the maximum rate is scheduled to increase to 20 percent). Short-term capital gains are taxed at ordinary income rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Conversion of Notes

      A U.S. Holder generally will not recognize any income, gain or loss on the conversion of a note into common stock, except with respect to cash received in lieu of a fractional share of common stock and the fair market value of any common stock attributable to accrued and unpaid interest, subject to the discussion under “Constructive Distributions” below regarding the possibility that the payment of the make whole amount on a note converted in connection with a change in control may be treated as a taxable stock dividend. The U.S. Holder’s aggregate tax basis in the common stock (including any fractional share for which cash is paid, but excluding shares attributable to accrued interest) will equal the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the note. The U.S. Holder’s holding period in the common stock (other than shares attributable to accrued interest) will include the holding period in the note.

      With respect to cash received in lieu of a fractional share of our common stock, a U.S. Holder would be treated as if the fractional share were issued and received and then immediately redeemed for cash. Accordingly, the U.S. Holder generally would recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the cash received and that portion of the holder’s tax basis in the common stock attributable to the fractional share.

      The value of any portion of our common stock that is attributable to accrued and unpaid interest on the notes not yet included in income by a U.S. Holder would be taxed as ordinary income. The basis in any shares of common stock attributable to accrued and unpaid interest would equal the fair market value of such shares when received. The holding period in any shares of common stock attributable to accrued and unpaid interest would begin on the day after the date of conversion.

      A U.S. Holder that converts a note between a record date for an interest payment and the next interest payment date and consequently receives a payment of cash interest, as described in “Description of the Notes — Conversion,” should consult its own tax advisor concerning the appropriate treatment of such payments.

      In the event that we undergo a business combination as described under “Description of the Notes — Conversion — Conversion Rate Adjustments,” the conversion obligation may be adjusted so that holders would be entitled to convert the notes into the type of consideration that they would have been entitled to

S-52

receive upon such business combination had the notes been converted into our common stock immediately prior to such business combination. Depending on the facts and circumstances at the time of such business combination, such adjustment may result in a deemed exchange of the outstanding debentures, which may be a taxable event for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

      U.S. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of such an adjustment upon a business combination.

Distributions

      If, after a U.S. Holder acquires our common stock upon a conversion of a note, we make a distribution in respect of such common stock from our current or accumulated earnings and profits as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles, the distribution will be treated as a dividend and will be includible in a U.S. Holder’s income when paid. If the distribution exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits, the excess will be treated first as a tax-free return of the U.S. Holder’s investment, up to the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in its common stock, and any remaining excess will be treated as capital gain from the sale or exchange of the common stock. If the U.S. Holder is a U.S. corporation, it would generally be able to claim a dividends received deduction on a portion of any distribution taxed as a dividend, provided that certain holding period requirements are satisfied. Subject to certain exceptions, dividends received by non-corporate U.S. Holders currently are taxed at a maximum rate of 15 percent (effective for tax years through 2008), provided that certain holding period requirements are met.

Constructive Distributions

      The terms of the notes allow for changes in the conversion rate of the notes under certain circumstances. A change in conversion rate that allows noteholders to receive more shares of common stock on conversion may increase the noteholders’ proportionate interests in our earnings and profits or assets. In that case, the noteholders may be treated as though they received a taxable distribution in the form of our common stock. A taxable constructive stock distribution would result, for example, if the conversion rate is adjusted to compensate noteholders for distributions of cash or property to our stockholders. The adjustment to the conversion rate of notes converted in connection with a change in control, as described under “Description of the Notes — Conversion Rights — Make Whole Amount” above, also may be treated as a taxable stock distribution. Not all changes in the conversion rate that result in noteholders’ receiving more common stock on conversion, however, increase the noteholders’ proportionate interests in us. For instance, a change in conversion rate could simply prevent the dilution of the noteholders’ interests upon a stock split or other change in capital structure. Changes of this type, if made pursuant to bona fide reasonable adjustment formula, are not treated as constructive stock distributions. Conversely, if an event occurs that dilutes the noteholders’ interests and the conversion rate is not adjusted, the resulting increase in the proportionate interests of our stockholders could be treated as a taxable stock distribution to the stockholders. In addition, if an event occurs that increases the interests of the noteholders and the conversion rate of the notes is not adjusted (or not adequately adjusted), this could be treated as a taxable stock distribution to the noteholders. Any taxable constructive stock distributions resulting from a change to, or failure to change, the conversion rate that is treated as a distribution of common stock would be treated for U.S federal income tax purposes in the same manner as distributions on our common stock paid in cash or other property. They would result in a taxable dividend to the recipient to the extent of our current or accumulated earnings and profits(with the recipient’s tax basis in its note or common stock (as the case may be) being increased by the amount of such dividend), with any excess treated as a tax-free return of the holder’s investment in its note or common stock (as the case may be) or as capital gain. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding whether any taxable constructive stock dividend would be eligible for the maximum 15 percent rate or the dividends received deduction described in the previous paragraph as the requisite applicable holding period requirements might not be considered to be satisfied.

S-53

Sale or Exchange of Common Stock

      A U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss on a sale or exchange of common stock. The U.S. Holder’s gain or loss will equal the difference between the proceeds received by the holder and the holder’s tax basis in the stock. The proceeds received by the U.S. Holder will include the amount of any cash and the fair market value of any other property received for the stock. The gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on a sale or exchange of common stock will be long-term capital gain or loss if the holder’s holding period in the common stock is more than one year, or short-term capital gain or loss if the holder’s holding period in the common stock is one year or less, at the time of the transaction. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate taxpayers are currently taxed at a maximum 15 percent federal rate (effective for tax years through 2008, after which the maximum rate is scheduled to increase to 20 percent). Short-term capital gains are taxed at ordinary income rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Non-U.S. Holders

      The following discussion is limited to the U.S. federal income tax consequences relevant to a Non-U.S. Holder (as defined above).

Taxation of Interest

      Subject to the discussion below under “— Income or Gains Effectively Connected with a U.S. Trade or Business,” payments of interest to Non-U.S. Holders are generally subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30 percent (or a reduced or zero rate under the terms of an applicable income tax treaty between the United States and the Non-U.S. Holder’s country of residence), collected by means of withholding by the payor. Payments of interest on the notes to most Non-U.S. Holders, however, will qualify as “portfolio interest,” and thus will be exempt from U.S. federal income tax, including withholding of such tax, if the Non-U.S. Holders certify their nonresident status as described below. The portfolio interest exception will not apply to payments of interest to a Non-U.S. Holder that:

•  owns, actually or constructively, shares of our stock representing at least 10 percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of our stock entitled to vote; or

•  is a “controlled foreign corporation” that is related, directly or indirectly, to us through sufficient stock ownership.

      In general, a foreign corporation is a controlled foreign corporation if more than 50 percent of its stock is owned, actually or constructively, by one or more U.S. persons that each owns, actually or constructively, at least 10 percent of the corporation’s voting stock.

      The portfolio interest exception, entitlement to treaty benefits and several of the special rules for Non-U.S. Holders described below apply only if the holder certifies its nonresident status. A Non-U.S. Holder can meet this certification requirement by providing a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or appropriate substitute form to us or our paying agent prior to the payment. If the Non-U.S. Holder holds the note through a financial institution or other agent acting on the holder’s behalf, the holder will be required to provide appropriate documentation to the agent. The Non-U.S. Holder’s agent will then be required to provide certification to us or our paying agent, either directly or through other intermediaries. For payments made to a foreign partnership (including for this purpose any entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or other flow-through entity, the certification requirements generally apply to the partners or other owners rather than the partnership or other entity, and the partnership or other entity must provide the partners’ or owners’ documentation to us or our paying agent.

Sale, Exchange, Redemption, Conversion or Other Disposition of Notes or Common Stock

      Non-U.S. Holders generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax on any gain realized on the sale, exchange, redemption, conversion or other disposition of notes (other than with respect to

S-54

payments attributable to accrued interest, which will be taxed as described under “— Non-U.S. Holders — Taxation of Interest” above) or common stock, unless:

•  the gain is effectively connected with the conduct by the Non-U.S. Holder of a U.S. trade or business (and, generally, if an income tax treaty applies, the gain is attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment maintained by the Non-U.S. Holder), in which case the gain would be subject to tax as described below under “— Non-U.S. Holders — Income or Gains Effectively Connected with a U.S. Trade or Business”;

•  the Non-U.S. Holder was a citizen or resident of the United States and is subject to certain special rules that apply to expatriates;

•  subject to certain exceptions, the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the disposition and certain other conditions are satisfied, in which case, except as otherwise provided by an applicable income tax treaty, the gain would be subject to a flat 30 percent tax, which may be offset by U.S. source capital losses, even though the individual is not considered a resident of the U.S.; or

•  the rules of the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act (or FIRPTA) (described below) treat the gain as effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business.

      The FIRPTA rules may apply to a sale, exchange, redemption or other disposition of notes or common stock by a Non-U.S. Holder if we currently are, or were at any time within five years (or, if shorter, the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period for the notes or common stock disposed of) before the transaction, a “U.S. real property holding corporation” (or USRPHC). In very general terms, we would be a USRPHC if interests in U.S. real estate comprised at least 50 percent of our assets. We believe that we currently are not, and will not become in the future, a USRPHC.

Dividends

      Dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder on common stock received on conversion of a note, including any taxable constructive stock dividends resulting from certain adjustments, or failure to make adjustments, to the number of shares of common stock to be issued on conversion (as described under “— U.S. Holders — Constructive Distributions” above) generally will be subject to U.S. withholding tax at a 30 percent rate. Withholding tax applicable to any taxable constructive stock dividends received by a Non-U.S. Holder may be withheld from interest on the notes, distributions on the common stock, shares of common stock or proceeds subsequently paid or credited to the Non-U.S. Holder. The withholding tax on dividends (including any taxable constructive stock dividends), however, may be reduced under the terms of an applicable income tax treaty between the United States and the Non-U.S. Holder’s country of residence. A Non-U.S. Holder should demonstrate its entitlement to treaty benefits by timely delivering a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or appropriate substitute form. A Non-U.S. Holder that is eligible for a reduced rate of withholding under the terms of an applicable income tax treaty may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS. Dividends on the common stock that are effectively connected with a Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business are discussed below under “— Non-U.S. Holders — Income or Gains Effectively Connected with a U.S. Trade or Business”.

Income or Gains Effectively Connected With a U.S. Trade or Business

      The preceding discussion of the U.S. federal income and withholding tax considerations of the purchase, ownership or disposition of notes or common stock by a Non-U.S. Holder assumes that the holder is not engaged in a U.S. trade or business. If any interest on the notes, dividends on common stock, or gain from the sale, exchange, redemption, conversion or other disposition of the notes or common stock is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business conducted by the Non-U.S. Holder, then the income or gain will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis at the regular graduated rates and in the same manner applicable to U.S. Holders. If the Non-U.S. Holder is eligible for the benefits of a tax treaty between the United States and the holder’s country of residence, any “effectively connected” income or gain generally

S-55

will be subject to U.S. federal income tax only if it is also attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by the holder in the United States. Payments of interest or dividends that are effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business (and, if a tax treaty applies, attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base), and therefore included in the gross income of a Non-U.S. Holder, will not be subject to the 30 percent withholding tax provided that the holder claims exemption from withholding. To claim exemption from withholding in the case of U.S. trade or business income, or to claim the benefits of a treaty, the holder must certify its qualification, which can be done by timely filing a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI (in the case of a U.S. trade or business income) or properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8BEN (in the case of a treaty), or any successor from as the IRS designates, as applicable, prior to the payment of interest. If the Non-U.S. Holder is a corporation, that portion of its earnings and profits that is effectively connected with its U.S. trade or business generally also would be subject to a “branch profits tax.” The branch profits tax rate is generally 30 percent, although an applicable income tax treaty might provide for a lower rate.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

      The Code and the Treasury regulations require those who make specified payments to report the payments to the IRS. Among the specified payments are interest, dividends, and proceeds paid by brokers to their customers. The required information returns enable the IRS to determine whether the recipient properly included the payments in income. This reporting regime is reinforced by “backup withholding” rules. These rules require the payers to withhold tax from payments subject to information reporting if the recipient fails to cooperate with the reporting regime by failing to provide a correct taxpayer identification number to the payor, furnishing an incorrect identification number, or repeatedly failing to report interest or dividends on tax returns. The backup withholding tax rate is currently 28 percent.

      Payments of interest or dividends to U.S. Holders of notes or common stock generally will be subject to information reporting, and will be subject to backup withholding, unless the holder (1) is an exempt payee, such as a corporation, or (2) provides the payor with a correct taxpayer identification number and complies with applicable certification requirements. Payments made to U.S. Holders by a broker upon a sale of notes or common stock will generally be subject to information reporting and backup withholding. If the sale is made through a foreign office of a foreign broker, however, the sale will generally not be subject to either information reporting or backup withholding. This exception may not apply if the foreign broker is owned or controlled by U.S. persons, or is engaged in a U.S. trade or business.

      We must report annually to the IRS the interest and/or dividends paid to each Non-U.S. Holder and the tax withheld, if any, with respect to such interest and/or dividends, including any tax withheld pursuant to the rules described under “— Non-U.S. Holders — Taxation of Interest” and “— Non-U.S. Holders — Dividends” above. Copies of these reports may be made available to tax authorities in the country where the Non-U.S. Holder resides. Payments to Non-U.S. Holders of dividends on our common stock or interest on the notes may be subject to backup withholding unless the Non-U.S. Holder certifies its non-U.S. status on a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or appropriate substitute form. Payments made to Non-U.S. Holders by a broker upon a sale of the notes or our common stock will not be subject to information reporting or backup withholding as long as the Non-U.S. Holder certifies its non-U.S. status or otherwise establishes an exemption.

      Any amounts withheld from a payment to a U.S. Holder or Non-U.S. Holder of notes or common stock under the backup withholding rules can be credited against any U.S. federal income tax liability of the holder, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

      The preceding discussion of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations is for general information only. It is not tax advice. Each prospective investor should consult its own tax advisor regarding the particular U.S. federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of purchasing, holding, and disposing of our notes and common stock, including the consequences of any proposed change in applicable laws.

UNDERWRITING

      Citigroup Global Markets Inc. is acting as sole book-running manager of the offering. Subject to the terms and conditions stated in the underwriting agreement dated the date of this prospectus supplement, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. has agreed to purchase, and we have agreed to sell to Citigroup Global Markets Inc., the notes.

      The underwriting agreement provides that the obligation of the underwriter to purchase the notes included in this offering is subject to certain conditions. The underwriter is obligated to purchase all the notes (other than those covered by the over-allotment option described below) if they it purchases any of the notes.

      The underwriter proposes to offer some of the notes directly to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement. If all of the notes are not sold at the initial offering price, the underwriter may change the public offering price and the other selling terms.

      We have granted to the underwriter an option, exercisable for 30 days from the date of this prospectus supplement, to purchase up to $28.5 million aggregate principal amount of notes to cover over-allotments at the public offering price less the underwriting discount. The underwriter may exercise the option solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments, if any, in connection with this offering.

      During a period of 90 days from the date of this prospectus supplement, the Company and certain of our officers and directors have agreed, subject to certain exceptions, that they will not, without the prior written consent of Citigroup Global Markets Inc., (i) directly or indirectly, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of or transfer any share of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock or file, or cause to be filed, any registration statement or prospectus under the 1933 Act with respect to any of the foregoing or (ii) enter into any swap or any other agreement or any transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequence of ownership of the Common Stock, whether any such swap or transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise; provided, however, that (i) the Company may issue and sell Common Stock pursuant to any employee stock option plan, stock ownership plan or dividend reinvestment plan of the Company in effect at the Execution Time and (ii) the Company may issue Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Securities or the exercise of warrants outstanding at the Execution Time.

      The common stock is quoted on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol “AMKR.”

      The following table shows the underwriting discounts and commissions that we are to pay to the underwriter in connection with this offering. These amounts are shown assuming both no exercise and full exercise of the underwriter’s option to purchase additional notes.

	No Exercise		Full Exercise
Per note	$	30	$	30
Total	$	5,700,000	$	6,555,000

      In connection with the offering, the underwriter may purchase and sell notes in the open market. These transactions may include over-allotment, syndicate covering transactions and stabilizing transactions. Over-allotment involves syndicate sales of notes in excess of the number of the principal amount of notes to be purchased by the underwriter in the offering, which creates a syndicate short position. “Covered” short sales are sales of notes made in an amount up to the principal amount represented by the underwriter’s over-allotment option. In determining the source of notes to close out the covered syndicate short position, the underwriter will consider, among other things, the price of notes available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase notes through the over-allotment option. Transactions to close out the covered syndicate short involve either purchases of notes in the open market after the distribution has been completed or the exercise of the over-allotment option. The underwriter may also make “naked” short sales of notes in excess of the over-allotment option. The underwriter must close out any naked short position by purchasing notes in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the

S-57

underwriter is concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the notes in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of bids for or purchases of notes in the open market while the offering is in progress.

      Any of these activities may have the effect of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the notes. They may also cause the price of the notes to be higher than the price that would otherwise exist in the open market in the absence of these transactions. The underwriter may conduct these transactions on the over-the-counter market or otherwise. If the underwriter commences any of these transactions, it may discontinue them at any time.

      We estimate that our total expenses of this offering (excluding underwriting commissions) will be $375,000.

      The underwriter has performed investment banking and advisory services for us from time to time for which it has received customary fees and expenses. The underwriter is the underwriter in the concurrent offering. The underwriter or one or more of its affiliates serves as the sole book manager, a joint lead arranger, the administrative and collateral agents, issuing bank and a lender under our second lien credit agreement. An affiliate of the underwriter beneficially owns our 10.5% senior subordinated notes due 2009 and may receive a portion of the proceeds from this offering. The underwriter may, from time to time, engage in transactions with and perform services for us and our affiliates in the ordinary course of its business.

      We have agreed to indemnify the underwriter against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, or to contribute to payments the underwriter may be required to make because of any of those liabilities.

Amkor Technology, Inc.

      Amkor is one of the world’s largest subcontractors of semiconductor packaging (sometimes referred to as assembly) and test services. Amkor pioneered the outsourcing of semiconductor packaging and test services through a predecessor in 1968, and over the years has built a leading position by:

•  Providing a broad portfolio of packaging and test technologies and services,

•  Maintaining a leading role in the design and development of new package and test technologies,

•  Cultivating long-standing relationships with customers, including many of the world’s leading semiconductor companies,

•  Developing expertise in high-volume manufacturing processes to provide our services, and

•  Providing a broadly diversified operational scope, with production capabilities in China, Korea, Japan, the Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan and the United States, “U.S.”

      Packaging and test are integral parts of the process of manufacturing semiconductor devices. This process begins with silicon wafers and involves the fabrication of electronic circuitry into complex patterns, thus creating large numbers of individual chips on the wafers. The fabricated wafers are probed to ensure the individual devices meet design specifications. The packaging process creates an electrical interconnect between the semiconductor chip and the system board through wire bonding or bumping technologies. In packaging, individual chips are separated from the fabricated semiconductor wafers, attached to a substrate and then encased in a protective material to provide optimal electrical connectivity and thermal performance. The packaged chips are then tested using sophisticated equipment to ensure that each packaged chip meets its design specifications. Increasingly, packages are custom designed for specific chips and specific end-market applications. We are able to provide turnkey solutions including semiconductor wafer bumping, wafer probe, wafer backgrind, package design, packaging, test and drop shipment services.

      The semiconductors that we package and test for our customers ultimately become components in electronic systems used in communications, computing, consumer, industrial and automotive applications. Our customers include, among others: Altera Corporation; Avago Technologies, Pte; Freescale Semiconduc-

1

tor, Inc.; Intel Corporation; International Business Machines Corporation (“IBM”); Samsung Electronics Corporation, Ltd.; Conexant Systems, Inc.; ST Microelectronics, Pte, Ltd.; Texas Instruments, Inc.; and Toshiba Corporation. The outsourced semiconductor packaging and test market is very competitive. We also compete with the internal semiconductor packaging and test capabilities of many of our customers.

      We were incorporated in 1997 in the state of Delaware. Our principal offices are located at 1900 South Price Road, Chandler, AZ 85248. Our telephone number is (480) 821-5000 and our website can be accessed at www.amkor.com. Information contained in our website does not constitute part of this prospectus.

RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES

      The ratio of earnings to fixed charges for each of the periods indicated is as follows:

      We have calculated the ratio of earnings to fixed charges by dividing (1) the sum of (x) income (loss) before income taxes, equity investment earnings (losses), minority interests and discontinued operations plus (y) fixed charges by (2) fixed charges. Fixed charges consist of interest expense, amortization of debt issuance costs and one-third of rental expense. We believe that one-third of rental expense is representative of the interest factor of rental payments under our operating leases. The ratio of earnings to fixed charges was less than 1:1 for the year ended December 31, 2001. In order to achieve a ratio of earnings to fixed charges of 1:1, we would have had to generate an additional $438.5 million of earnings in the year ended December 31, 2001. The ratio of earnings to fixed charges was less than 1:1 for the year ended December 31, 2002. In order to achieve a ratio of earnings to fixed charges of 1:1, we would have had to generate an additional $564.3 million of earnings in the year ended December 31, 2002. The ratio of earnings to fixed charges was less than 1:1 for the year ended December 31, 2003. In order to achieve a ratio of earnings to fixed charges of 1:1, we would have had to generate an additional $45.3 million of earnings in the year ended December 31, 2003. The ratio of earnings to fixed charges was less than 1:1 for 2004. In order to achieve a ratio of earnings to fixed charges of 1:1, we would have had to generate an additional $21.4 million of earnings in 2004. The ratio of earnings to fixed charges was less than 1:1 for 2005. In order to achieve a ratio of earnings to fixed charges of 1:1, we would have had to generate an additional $144.9 million of earnings in 2005.
