WHEREAS, the parties intend that this Agreement shall set forth the terms of their agreement with respect to the foregoing and that this Agreement shall supersede all prior agreements between CHIPPAC and the Executive, including the Existing Employment Agreement, as of the Effective Date (as hereinafter defined), and the Chief Executive Officer Management Incentive Agreement, dated as of August 1, 1998, as the same may have been amended or modified from time to time, by and between CHIPPAC and the Executive (other than that certain Mutual Release of Claims attached as Exhibit A thereto).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises, the mutual covenants, terms and conditions set forth herein, and other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Effectiveness of Agreement. This Agreement shall constitute a binding obligation of the Executive and the Company upon the execution of this Agreement; provided,

however, that any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the terms hereof shall not become effective until the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Effective Date”). In the event that the Merger Agreement is terminated prior to the Closing (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or the transactions contemplated in the Merger Agreement are not consummated, this Agreement shall be null and void ab initio and shall terminate without further notice.

2. Resignation from Office. Effective as of the Effective Date, the Executive shall resign from his position as President and Chief Executive Officer of CHIPPAC. Incidental to such resignation, the Executive will relinquish his position as a member of the Board of Directors of CHIPPAC, and from each and every other position as an employee, officer or director of CHIPPAC, its subsidiaries and associated companies on the Effective Date.

3. Vice Chairman of the Board. The Company shall nominate the Executive to serve, effective as of the Effective Date, as a member and Vice Chairman of the Board for a term to continue through December 31, 2004, or such earlier date as mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Executive (the “Term”). The Executive hereby agrees to resign on December 31, 2004 as a member of the Board and from his position as Vice Chairman of the Board, and on such date, he shall deliver a letter of resignation in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

4. Consideration. In consideration of the Executive’s covenants contained in this Agreement (in particular, his resignation as President and CEO of ChipPAC) and his execution and delivery of a Release Agreement in the form set forth as Exhibit B hereto (the “Release”) on the Effective Date, CHIPPAC shall provide the Executive with the following payments and benefits:

(a) Payment. On the day next following the expiration of the Revocation Period (as defined in the Release), CHIPPAC shall pay the Executive an amount equal to three times the Executive’s annual base salary at the rate in effect immediately preceding the Effective Date, plus three times the Executive’s annual target bonus at the rate in effect immediately preceding the Effective Date.

(b) Option Vesting Acceleration. Effective as of the day next following the expiration of the Revocation Period, all equity-based compensation awards with respect to the equity securities of CHIPPAC held by the Executive shall vest in full and become immediately exercisable and shall remain exercisable until the first anniversary of date that the awards become fully vested in accordance with this Section 4(b).

(c) Term Life Insurance. Effective as soon as practicable following the expiration of the Revocation Period, CHIPPAC shall fund in full the term life insurance policy provided to the Executive pursuant to the terms of the Existing Employment Agreement.

(d) Medical and Dental Benefits. CHIPPAC shall pay for the cost of insurance premiums with respect to medical and dental benefits for the Executive and his dependents during the period commencing as of the day next following the expiration of the Revocation Period and continuing until the date that is the earlier of the third anniversary of the day next following the expiration of the Revocation Period and the date that the Executive becomes entitled to participate in employee benefit plans of a subsequent employer that provide for medical and dental benefits that are comparable to the medical and dental benefits to which the Employee was entitled to receive immediately preceding the Effective Date.

(e) Cap. Anything to the contrary in this Agreement notwithstanding, the aggregate amount payable under Section 4(c) and (d) shall in no event exceed $150.000.00.

5. Reduction of Payments. In the event that the severance and other benefits provided to the Executive under this Agreement or any other agreement or arrangement constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and, but for this Section 5, such severance and benefits would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then the aggregate severance and benefits payable to the Executive under this Agreement shall be reduced such that the present value thereof (as determined under the Code and the applicable regulations) is equal to 2.99 times the Executive’s “base amount,” as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code. For purposes of applying the provisions of this Section 5, the Company shall be entitled to rely on the advice of legal counsel or a nationally recognized accounting firm as to whether any payments or benefits payable to the Executive constitute “Parachute Payments” under 280G of the Code.

6. No Other Payments or Benefits. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Executive acknowledges and agrees that he is not entitled to any payment, compensation or benefits (whether statutorily or otherwise) from the Company in connection with this Agreement and that, except as expressly set forth herein, he is not entitled to any severance or similar benefits under any agreement, plan, program, policy or arrangement, whether formal or informal, written or unwritten, of the Company.

7. Non-Disparagement. Following the Effective Date, the Executive shall not, nor shall he cause another person to, directly or indirectly, make any statement that disparages or is derogatory of the Company or its subsidiaries and affiliates in any communications with any person.

(a) Confidential Information. As used in this Agreement, the term “Affiliated Companies” means the Company’s clients, subcontractors and other companies or individuals with which the Company carries on business or joint enterprises. As used in this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” means any and all information disclosed, acquired or known to the Executive as a result of employment with the Company or any of the Affiliated Companies, including, without limitation, any information gathered or developed by the Executive and relating to the business of the Company or any of the Affiliated Companies. Confidential Information includes, without limitation, all documents pertaining to the business of the Company or any of the Affiliated Companies, including trade secrets, technical and financial information, data, designs, systems drawings, proposals, client lists, client records, economic and financial analysis, financial data, customer contracts, notes, memoranda, books, correspondence, manuals, reports or research, whether developed by the Company or any of the Affiliated Companies or developed by the Executive acting alone or jointly with the Company or any of the

Affiliated Companies, any product development and ideas, apparatus as well as all other information, written, oral, graphic or computerized relating to the business of the Company or any of the Affiliated Companies, provided, that Confidential Information shall exclude (i) any information which is publicly available, so long as such information was not publicly disclosed by the Executive or any other person or entity in contravention of a non-disclosure agreement with the Company; (ii) any information generally available or known in the industry; and (iii) any information known to the Executive before employment with the Company. The Executive represents and warrants that the Executive shall at all times, including following the Effective Date, keep secret and retain in strictest confidence all Confidential Information, and except as the Executive may be authorized by the Company or Affiliated Companies in writing, the Executive agrees not to publish or disclose to any person or entity, or use in any manner, such Confidential Information. The Executive’s obligations under this Section 8(a) supplement, and do not limit or replace, any other obligations that the Executive may have including, but not limited to, obligations under statute, common law or contract.

(b) Noncompetition. The Executive agrees with the Company that for a period of twenty-four (24) calendar months following the Effective Date (the “Restricted Period”), the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, engage in any business, whether as a proprietor, partner, joint venturer, employer, agent, employee, consultant, officer or beneficial or record owner of more than one percent (1%) of the stock of any corporation or association of any nature which is competitive to the business conducted by the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or assigns (collectively referred to herein as the “Companies”) in the geographical service area in which the Companies have engaged or will engage during such period (including, without limitation, any area in which any client or customer of the Companies may be located).

(c) Non-Solicitation. During the Restricted Period, the Executive shall not directly or indirectly through another person or entity (i) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Companies to leave the employ of the Companies, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any of the Companies and any employee thereof, (ii) hire any person who was an employee of any of the Companies at any time during the period that the Executive was employed by the Company or (iii) induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee or other business relation of the Companies that is within any geographical area in which the Companies engage or plan to engage in such businesses to cease doing business with the Companies or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee or business relation and the Companies.

(d) Non-Disparagement. The Executive agrees that at any time during his employment with the Company or at any time thereafter, the Executive shall not make, or cause or assist any other person to make, any statement or other communication which impugns or attacks, or is otherwise critical of, the reputation, business or character of the Company, any subsidiary or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, products or services.

(e) Enforcement. The Executive hereby acknowledges that he has carefully reviewed the provisions of this Agreement and agrees that the provisions are fair and equitable. However, in light of the possibility of differing interpretations of law and change in circumstances, the parties hereto agree that if any one or more of the provisions of this

Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable under circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable or enforceable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area. Because the Executive’s services are unique and because the Executive has had access to Confidential Information, the parties hereto agree that money damages will not be an adequate remedy for any breach of this Agreement. Therefore, in the event a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, the Company or its successors or assigns may, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance, injunctive, other relief of the foregoing in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security).

9. Severability. Each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. If any of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or an arbitration to be excessively broad as to duration, activity, geographic application or subject matter, such provision shall be construed, by limiting or reducing it to the extent legally permitted, so as to make such provision enforceable to the extent compatible with then-applicable law.

10. Notices. For the purpose of this Agreement, notices, demands and all other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be sent by messenger, overnight courier, certified or registered mail, postage prepaid and return receipt requested or by facsimile transmission to the parties at their respective addresses and fax numbers set forth below or to such other address or fax number as to which notice is given.

Nevertheless, the Executive hereby waives any right, claim, or cause of action that might arise as a result of such different or additional claims or facts and Executive hereby expressly waives any and all rights and benefits conferred upon Executive by the provisions of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California, which provides as follows:
