NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Quarter Ended March 31, 2004

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1:   Interim Statements

 

In the opinion of management of ChipPAC, Inc. (“ChipPAC” or the “Company”), the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial information included therein. This financial data should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2003 included in ChipPAC’s 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ChipPAC, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for any other period or the fiscal year that ends on December 31, 2004. The interim period ended on March 28, 2004, the Sunday nearest March 31st.

 

Pending Merger

 

On February 10, 2004, the Company signed a definitive agreement for the merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of ST Assembly Test Ltd, or STATS, with ChipPAC in a stock-for-stock transaction. If the merger is consummated, the Company will become a wholly owned subsidiary of STATS. Under the terms of the agreement, ChipPAC stockholders will receive 0.87 STATS American Depositary Shares, or ADSs, for each share of ChipPAC Class A common stock. Following the consummation of the merger, STATS and ChipPAC stockholders will own approximately 54% and 46% of the combined company, respectively, on a fully-converted basis. The new company is proposed to be named STATS ChipPAC Ltd. and will be headquartered in Singapore.

 

Consummation of the merger is subject to certain conditions, including approval by ChipPAC and STATS stockholders, expiration of waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act, receipt of a private letter ruling from U.S. tax authorities relating to the tax treatment of the merger for ChipPAC stockholders and other customary conditions. On March 19, 2004, the Company received early termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act. A vote of the majority of the Company’s outstanding Class A common stock will be required to approve the merger. The Company’s board of directors has voted to approve the transaction and recommend that our stockholders vote to approve the merger. The transaction is expected to close by the end of the second calendar quarter of 2004. There can be no assurance that the conditions to the merger will be satisfied or that the merger will close in the expected time frame or at all. Additional information, including a discussion of the background and the Company’s reasons for the merger, will be provided in the proxy statement/prospectus to be mailed to its stockholders. The information in this report is qualified in its entirety by the impact of this proposed merger on the Company and its stockholders.

 

The Company expects the total estimated costs of the merger to be approximately $14.6 million. As of March 31, 2004, $3.3 million of costs related to the merger had been incurred and were expensed during the quarter. If our proposed merger with STATS is terminated under certain circumstances, we will be required to pay STATS a termination fee of $40 million.

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company’s employee stock option plan and employee stock purchase plan are accounted for in accordance with Accounting Principles Board No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related interpretations and comply with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123”) and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, Transition and Disclosure”. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for the Company’s stock option and purchase plan activity as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. If compensation expense had been determined based on the grant date fair value for awards, in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net loss and loss per share would have been adjusted to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

The following assumptions were used to determine the pro forma impact of accounting for stock options issued during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003: (1) risk-free interest rates of 2.7% and 2.5%, respectively, (2) dividend yield of 0.0%, (3) expected life of four years, and (4) volatility of 71.0% and 53.3%, respectively.

 

The following assumptions were used to determine the pro forma impact of accounting for the employee stock purchase plan during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003: (1) risk-free interest rates of 1.0% and 1.7%, respectively, (2) dividend yield of 0.0%, (3) expected life of six months, and (4) volatility of 71.0% and 55.0%, respectively.

 

Other Comprehensive Income

 

The Company accounts for derivative financial instruments in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS No.133”), as amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 138, “Accounting for Certain Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities” and as further amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. The Company records derivative financial instruments in the consolidated financial statements at fair value. Changes in the fair values of derivative financial instruments are either recognized in earnings or in stockholders’ equity as a component of other comprehensive income depending on whether the derivative financial instrument qualifies for hedge accounting as defined by SFAS No.133. Changes in fair value of derivatives qualifying for hedge accounting are recorded in stockholders’ equity as a component of other comprehensive income, and are reclassified to the income statement in the same period when hedged transactions are recognized in earnings. Changes in fair values of derivatives not qualifying for hedge accounting are reported in earnings as they occur.

 

In February 2004, the Company entered into a series of foreign currency forward contracts with Korea Exchange Bank. The total forward contracts of $55.0 million have been structured such that two contracts of $5.0 million in total, will be settled each month from February to December, 2004. The purpose of the forward contracts is to hedge the first $5.0 million of monthly operating expenses denominated in South Korean Won in order to limit the exposure to fluctuations in the foreign currency exchange rate against the U.S. Dollar. All forward contracts qualify for hedge accounting as defined by SFAS No.133. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company recorded a realized gain of $18 thousand in the income statement and an unrealized gain of $481 thousand in other comprehensive income.

 

The components of accumulated other comprehensive income on March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 were comprised of the following (in thousands):

Note 3:   Line of Credit and Other Bank Borrowings

 

Lines of Credit

 

The Company has a borrowing capacity of $50.0 million for working capital and general corporate purposes under the revolving credit line portion of its senior credit facility. The revolving credit line under the senior credit facility matures on July 31, 2005. During the three month period ended March 31, 2004, the Company borrowed and repaid against the revolving line of credit $18.1 million at an interest rate of 5.75% per annum. As of March 31, 2004, there was no outstanding balance on the revolving line of credit and the entire $50.0 million was available to the Company.

 

The Company has also established two separate lines of credit with Korean Exchange Bank and Cho Hung Bank, with credit limits of $4.0 million and $8.0 million, respectively. During the three month period ended March 31, 2004, no borrowings were made against either of these lines of credit and there was no outstanding balance at March 31, 2004. Both agreements are subject to an annual review by Korean Exchange Bank and Cho Hung Bank for the continued use of the credit line facility. The Company also has a line of credit available with Southern Bank Bhd. for $0.5 million available for general corporate usage purposes at the interest rate of 6.9% per annum. During the three month period ended March 31, 2004, no borrowings were made against this line of credit and there was no outstanding balance on this facility.

 

Total Borrowings

 

As of March 31, 2004, the Company’s total debt outstanding consisted of $365.0 million of borrowings, which was comprised of $165.0 million of 12.75% senior subordinated notes, $50.0 million of 8.0% convertible subordinated notes and $150.0 million of 2.5% convertible subordinated notes.

 

Note 4:   Earnings Per Share

 

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 requires a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted per share computations. Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock and all potentially dilutive shares of common stock outstanding during the period. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options and the if-converted method is used for determining the number of shares assumed issued from the conversion of the convertible subordinated notes.

 

As of March 31, 2004, there were options outstanding to purchase 9.3 million shares of Class A common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $4.80, which could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future, but were not included in diluted EPS as their effect would have been antidilutive due to the net loss. The Company also has outstanding $50.0 million convertible subordinated notes which are convertible into approximately 5.0 million shares of Class A common stock at $9.96 per share and $150.0 million convertible subordinated notes which are convertible into approximately 18.6 million shares of Class A common stock at $8.062 per share. These were not included in diluted EPS as their effect would also have been antidilutive due to the net loss. The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted EPS computations for the periods presented below.

Note 5:   Contingent Liabilities

 

During the quarter ended June 30, 2002, an assessment of approximately 16.0 billion South Korean Won (approximately $14.0 million U.S. Dollars at March 31, 2004) was made by the South Korean National Tax Service, or NTS, relating to withholding tax on the interest income not collected on the loan between the Company’s subsidiaries in South Korea and Hungary for the period from 1999 to September 2001. The prevailing tax treaty does not require withholding on the transactions in question. The Company has appealed the assessment through the NTS’s Mutual Agreement Procedure (“MAP”) and believes that the assessment will be overturned. On July 18, 2002, the Icheon tax office of the NTS approved a suspension of the proposed assessment until resolution of the disputed assessment. The NTS required a corporate guarantee amounting to the tax assessment in exchange for the suspension. The Company complied with the guarantee request on July 10, 2002. A further assessment of 2.7 billion South Korean Won (approximately $2.3 million U.S. Dollars at March 31, 2004) was made on January 9, 2004, for the interest from October 2001 to May 2002. The Company has applied for the MAP and obtained an approval for a suspension of the proposed assessment by providing a corporate guarantee amounting to the additional taxes. The Company does not believe that the outcome of the resolution of this matter will have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. As of March 31, 2004, no accrual has been made.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

All references are to ChipPAC’s fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2003, unless otherwise indicated. This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “target,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and speak only as of their dates. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those identified under Exhibit 99.1 filed with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 and other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in our filings with the SEC. Actual results could differ materially from these forward-looking statements. In addition, important factors to consider in evaluating these forward-looking statements include our proposed merger with ST Assembly Test Services Ltd, changes in external market factors, changes in our business or growth strategy or an inability to execute our strategy due to changes in our industry or the economy generally, the emergence of new or growing competitors and various other competitive factors. Also, terrorist acts, war, political unrest or disease epidemics in the regions where we have operations could materially affect our financial condition and our results of operation. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the matters referred to in the forward-looking statements contained in this quarterly report will in fact occur.

 

Pending Merger

 

On February 10, 2004, we signed a definitive agreement for the merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of STATS with and into ChipPAC in a stock-for-stock transaction. If the merger is consummated, we will become a wholly owned subsidiary of STATS. Under the terms of the agreement, ChipPAC stockholders will receive 0.87 STATS ADSs, for each share of ChipPAC Class A common stock. Following consummation of the merger, STATS and ChipPAC stockholders will own approximately 54% and 46% of the combined company, respectively, on a fully-converted basis.

 

Consummation of the merger is subject to certain conditions, including approval by ChipPAC and STATS stockholders, expiration of waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act, receipt of a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service or opinions of outside legal counsel relating to the tax treatment of the merger for ChipPAC stockholders and other customary conditions. We received early termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act on March 19, 2004. A vote of the majority of our outstanding Class A common stock will be required to approve the merger. Our board of directors has voted to approve the transaction and recommend that our stockholders vote to approve the merger. The transaction is expected to close by the end of the second calendar quarter of 2004. There can be no assurance that the conditions to the merger will be satisfied or that the merger will close in the expected time frame or at all. Additional information, including a discussion of the background and our reasons for the merger, will be provided in the proxy statement/prospectus to be mailed to our stockholders. The information in this report is qualified in its entirety by the impact of this proposed merger on us and our stockholders. If our proposed merger with STATS is terminated under certain circumstances, we will be required to pay STATS a termination fee of $40 million.

 

Results of Operations

 

Three month period ended March 31, 2004 compared to three month period ended March 31, 2003

 

Revenue. Revenue was $126.9 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2004, an increase of 43.2% compared to revenue of $88.6 million for the same period in 2003. During the three month period ended March 31, 2004, we successfully implemented new packaging and test programs in all of our factories. The increase in revenue is primarily due to growth in our advance substrate product lines and particularly due to growth in revenue in stacked packages. Unit volumes of our multi-die stacked packages continued to increase and were 55.3% higher than in the prior quarter. In addition, our strategy to improve the test attach rate to what we assemble continued to drive improved profit contribution from test services at all our factories. An improved discount plan with a customer also increased our revenue in the three month period ended March 31, 2004 results compared to the same period in 2003. Our capacity expansion plans and productivity improved our ability to meet continued customer demands during the quarter. Test revenue for the three month period ended March 31, 2004 increased 44.3% versus the same period in 2003. Our assembly revenue increased 43.2% compared to the same period in 2003. Overall assembly unit volumes in the three months ended March 31, 2004 increased 38.8% versus the same period in 2003. Average selling prices per pin for assembly for the three month period ended March 31, 2004 increased 3.27% compared to the same period in 2003.

 

Gross Profit. Gross profit during the three month period ended March 31, 2004 was $23.0 million as compared to gross profit of $10.0 million for the same period in 2003. Gross margin as a percent of revenue was 18.1% for the three month period ended March 31, 2004, as compared to 11.3% in the same period in 2003. The improvement in gross margin percentage is the result of cost reduction programs to reduce manufacturing overhead and labor costs by improving productivity and also increases in test unit volumes. We continued to see pressure to reduce average selling prices during the period ended March 31, 2004 and continuing higher costs in the form of higher gold prices, higher substrate prices, higher oil prices and the appreciation of the South Korean Won against the United States Dollar when compared to the same period ended 2003. Overall equipment utilization was approximately 67.7 % for the three month period ended March 31, 2004 as compared to 57.9 % in the same period in 2003.

Selling, General, and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $9.1 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2004 as compared to $9.5 million for the same period in 2003. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 4.2% for the three month period ended March 31, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses were 7.2% for the three month period ended March 31, 2004, compared to 10.7% for the same period in 2003. Continued cost control measures including a reduction in bonuses paid, were in place to ensure that expenses remained relatively flat in the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003.

 

Research and Development. Research and development expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2004 were $3.0 million, versus $2.9 million for the same period in 2003, an increase of 3.4% from the three month period ended March 31, 2003. Throughout 2004, we have continued to increase our research and development staffing and projects at all three of our plants.

 

Merger-Related Charges. Costs related to the proposed merger, including accounting, legal, and investment banking expenses of $3.3 million were incurred during the three month period ended March 31, 2004.

 

Interest Expense. Total outstanding interest-bearing debt was $365.0 million at March 31, 2004 versus $267.9 million at March 31, 2003. Related interest expense was $7.6 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2004, an increase of 4.1% as compared to $7.3 million for the same period in 2003. Despite the increase in total outstanding debt at March 31, 2004 as compared to March 31, 2003, interest expense remained relatively flat compared to the prior year period primarily as the result of lower interest rates on the new convertible debt that replaced other debt with significantly higher rates.

 

Foreign Currency Losses. Net foreign currency losses were $0.4 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2004, as compared to a net foreign currency gain of $0.2 million for the same three month period in 2003. These non-cash losses were primarily due to the fluctuations between the exchange rate of the United States Dollar and the South Korean Won related to long-term severance benefits payable to our South Korean employees in South Korean Won.

 

Income Taxes. We have recorded a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount we believe is more likely than not to be realized. In the event that deferred tax assets would be realizable in the future in excess of the net recorded amount, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would increase income in the period such determination was made. We have a mix of tax rates across the various jurisdictions in which we do business, and this estimate does not take into account any future benefit from loss carryforwards, which we may realize once we again achieve profitability and begin generating taxable income. Consolidated income tax provisions were accrued at $0.5 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2004.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

For critical accounting policies affecting us, see Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. Critical accounting policies affecting us have not changed materially since December 31, 2003.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our ongoing primary cash needs are for operations and equipment purchases. We spent $34.4 million on capital expenditures during the three month period ended March 31, 2004, as compared to $9.8 million in capital expenditures during the same period in 2003. We expect our capital expenditures to increase over the year consistent with our expected growth in revenue.

 

Borrowings

 

As of March 31, 2004, our total debt consisted of $365.0 million of borrowings, which included $165.0 million of 12.75% senior subordinated notes, $50.0 million of 8.0% convertible subordinated notes and $150.0 million of 2.5% convertible subordinated notes.

 

We have a borrowing capacity of $50.0 million for working capital and general corporate purposes under the revolving credit line portion of our senior credit facilities. The revolving credit line under the senior credit facilities matures on July 31, 2005. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, we borrowed and repaid $18.1 million against the revolving line of credit for general corporate purposes. As of March 31, 2004, there was no outstanding balance on the revolving line of credit and the entire $50.0 million was available to us. Our pending merger with STATS will require us to obtain the approval of our lenders if we wish to maintain this line of credit. We currently have no intention of maintaining this line of credit if the pending merger is completed.

We have also established two separate lines of credit with Korean Exchange Bank and Cho Hung Bank, with credit limits of $4.0 million and $8.0 million, respectively. During the three month period ended March 31, 2004, no borrowings were made against either of these lines of credit. Both agreements are subject to an annual review by Korean Exchange Bank and Cho Hung Bank for the continued use of the credit line facility. We also have a line of credit with a limit of $0.5 million per borrowing available with Southern Bank Bhd. for general corporate purposes at the interest rate of 6.9% per annum. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, we did not use this line of credit and there was no outstanding balance on this loan.

 

Our senior credit facilities, as amended, contain covenants restricting our operations and requiring that we meet specified financial tests. The financial covenants consist solely of a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum senior leverage ratio based on a rolling 12-months calculation. There were no violations of the covenants under the senior credit facilities, as amended, through March 31, 2004. The consummation of our proposed merger with STATS would constitute an event of default under our senior credit facilities if we do not terminate the senior credit facilities or obtain the consent of our lenders prior to the merger. We intend to terminate the senior credit facilities immediately prior to the consummation of the merger.

 

The consummation of the pending STATS merger will constitute a “change of control” for the purposes of the indenture governing our $165 million aggregate principal amount of 12 3/4% senior subordinated notes due 2009. Upon a change of control, these noteholders have the right to require our subsidiary ChipPAC International Company Limited to repurchase all or a part of the notes for a purchase price in cash of 101% of the principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest. While the 12 3/4% notes do not trade on a national securities exchange, we understand that recent trading of these notes have been at prices well in excess of 101% of principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. Accordingly, we have no current expectation that any holder of 12 3/4% notes will choose to exercise such repurchase or “put” right. We can give no assurance that the 12 3/4% notes will continue to trade at prices well in excess of 101% of principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. If trading prices were to fall below this amount, we would expect that some or all of the holders of the 12 3/4% notes would chose to exercise such repurchase or “put” right. In such case, the board and management of the combined STATS-ChipPAC entity would need to determine what additional financing or other arrangements would need to be made to finance such repurchase or “put”.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Other than the covenants on the debt as discussed above and the tax guarantee to the South Korean Tax Authorities as discussed below, we have no performance guarantees. We also have no investment in any unconsolidated entities. Our off-balance sheet commitments are limited to operating leases, royalty/license agreements, and contingent payments to Cirrus Logic, Inc. regarding the purchase of test assets. Our total off-balance sheet obligations are approximately $59.3 million as of March 31, 2004.

 

Our total commitments on our loans, operating leases, and other agreements as of March 31, 2004, were as follows (in thousands):

During the quarter ended June 30, 2002, an assessment of approximately 16.0 billion South Korean Won (approximately $14.0 million U.S. Dollars at March 31, 2004) was made by the South Korean National Tax Service, or NTS, relating to withholding tax on the interest income not collected on the loan between our subsidiaries in South Korea and Hungary for the period from 1999 to September 2001. The prevailing tax treaty does not require withholding on the transactions in question. We have appealed the assessment through the NTS’s Mutual Agreement Procedure, or MAP, and believe that the assessment will be overturned. On July 18, 2002, the Icheon tax office of the NTS approved a suspension of the proposed assessment until resolution of the disputed assessment. The NTS required a corporate guarantee amounting to the tax assessment in exchange for the suspension. We have complied with the guarantee request on July 10, 2002. A further assessment of 2.7 billion South Korean Won (approximately $2.3 million U.S. Dollars at March 31, 2004) was made on January 9, 2004 for the interest income from October 2001 to May 2002. We have applied for the MAP and obtained an approval for a suspension of the proposed assessment by providing a corporate guarantee amounting to the additional taxes. We do not believe that the outcome of the resolution of this matter will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. As of March 31, 2004, no accrual has been made.

 

If our proposed merger with STATS is terminated under certain circumstances, we will be required to pay STATS a termination fee of $40 million.

 

For the three month period ended March 31, 2004, cash provided by operations was $1.4 million as compared to cash used in operating activities of $7.3 million for the same period in 2003. Cash provided and used by operations is calculated by adjusting our net loss by non-cash related items such as depreciation and amortization, debt issuance cost amortization, gains from sale of assets, foreign currency loss and by changes in assets and liabilities. During the three month period ended March 31, 2004, non-cash related items included $19.6 million related to depreciation and amortization, $0.6 million from debt issuance costs, $0.2 million from gain on sale of assets, and $0.4 million from foreign currency loss. For the same period ended in 2003, non-cash related items included $16.0 million related to depreciation and amortization, $0.5 million from debt issuance costs, $0.04 million from gain on sale of assets, and $0.2 million from foreign currency gain. Working capital uses of cash included increases in accounts receivable, prepaid assets, and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, primarily due to interest payments made. Working capital sources of cash were primarily a result of a decrease in inventories.

 

For the three month period ended March 31, 2004, cash used in investing activities was $7.7 million versus $12.3 million for the same period in 2003.

 

For the three month period ended March 31, 2004, cash provided by financing activities was $4.7 million as compared to $2.1 million for the same period in 2003. As of March 31, 2004, there were no outstanding borrowing on the revolving loan and the line of credit under our senior credit facilities. During the three month period ended March 31, 2004, $4.6 million was provided by the issuance of new common stock through the employee stock purchase plan and employee stock option plans and $0.06 million was provided by the repayment of notes from stockholders.

 

We believe that our existing cash balances, cash flows from operations and available borrowings under our senior credit facilities of $50.0 million will provide sufficient cash resources to meet our projected operating and other cash requirements for the next twelve months. An event of default under any debt instrument, if not cured or waived, could have a material adverse effect on us. We may require capital sooner than currently expected. We cannot assure you that additional financing will be available when we need it or, if available, that it will be available on satisfactory terms. In addition, the terms of our senior credit facilities and senior subordinated notes significantly reduce our ability to incur additional debt. Failure to obtain any such required additional financing could have a material adverse effect on our company.

 

ITEM 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risks affecting us, see Item 7A “Quantitative Disclosure About Market Risk” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. Our exposure to market risks has not changed materially since December 31, 2003.

 

ITEM 4.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of March 31, 2004, in timely alerting them to material information relating to our company (including our consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in our Exchange Act filings.

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2004 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting. On April 1, 2004, Michael G. Potter replaced Robert Krakauer as Acting Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Krakauer remains as Executive Vice President of Corporate Operations.

 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

On July 31, 2002, Seagate Technology L.L.C. filed suit against Atmel Corporation and Atmel SARL in Santa Clara County Superior Court. Seagate alleges that Atmel supplied defective semiconductor chips, and that Atmel had its chips outsourced and packaged by us, and Amkor Technology, Inc. On November 19, 2003, Atmel filed a First Amended Cross-Complaint against us, Amkor and Sumitomo Bakelite, Ltd., the Japanese manufacturer of the allegedly defective epoxy mold compound. ChipPAC entered an appearance in this matter in January 2004, and in April 2004 filed an amended cross-complaint against Sumitomo Bakelite, Ltd. We are currently being defended by insurance counsel, subject to the complete reservation of rights by the insurance company. We believe the claims against us for indemnification are without merit and will vigorously defend the litigation. However, the litigation process is inherently uncertain and there can be no assurance that the outcome of these claims will be favorable for us.

 

We are not involved in any other legal proceedings, the outcome of which we believe would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. From time to time, however, we are involved in claims that arise in the ordinary course of business, and we maintain insurance that we believe to be adequate to cover these claims.

CHIPPAC, INC

RETENTION AND SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

 

March 22, 2004

 

Robert Krakauer

ChipPAC, Inc.

47400 Kato Road

Fremont, CA 94538

 

Dear Bob:

 

In recognition of your committed efforts as an employee of ChipPAC, Inc. (the “Company”), we are offering you the opportunity to receive a special retention payment in the amount set forth below (the “Retention Payment”) and a special severance payment in the amount set forth below (the “Severance Payment,” together with other benefits, the “Severance Benefits”) in connection with the closing (the “Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization among ST Assembly Test Services Ltd, Camelot Merger, Inc. and ChipPAC, Inc. dated as of February 10, 2004. The Retention Benefits and Severance Benefits both will be fully subject to the terms of the ChipPAC, Inc. Employee Retention and Severance Plan (the “Plan”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Plan.

 

Your benefits under the Plan include the following:

 

1.    Retention Payment. You will receive a payment equal to twenty-six (26) times your Weekly Base Pay determined on the business day immediately preceding the Closing. Your Retention Payment will be payable on the first normal and customary payroll date following the termination of your employment with the Company, which will be on June 30, 2004 or until closing (“Termination Date”), or on such earlier date as may be required by law.

 

2.    Severance Benefits.

 

(a)    Severance Payment. You will receive a payment equal to twenty-six (26) times your Weekly Base Salary determined on the business day immediately preceding the Closing. Your Severance Payment will be payable on the first normal and customary payroll date following your Termination Date or on such earlier date as may be required by law.

 

(b)    Stock Options. Each ChipPAC stock option that you hold, other than options granted to you on or after January 1, 2004, will be fully exercisable upon the Closing to the extent they were not previously exercisable.

 

(c)    COBRA. In addition to the COBRA health care continuation coverage as required by law, the Company will pay you premiums associated directly with the provision of such coverage that you elect for a period of thirteen (13) weeks.

 

(d)    Pro-rated STI to actual performance at the time of closing.


You will receive your Retention Payment, the Severance Payment and the other Severance Benefits subject to certain conditions set forth in the Plan, including, without limitation, your continued full-time employment with the Company from the Closing through and including your Termination Date and your execution and non-revocation of a general release of claims in substantially the form attached as Annex A to the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will be entitled to receive the Retention Payment, the Severance Payment and the other Severance Benefits in the event that your employment is terminated by the Company without Cause (as such term is defined in the Retention Plan) or by you for Good Reason (as such term is defined in the Retention Plan) after the Closing, but before your Termination Date.

 

Please note that this letter is not a guarantee of continuing employment or an employment contract between you and the Company. You remain an at-will employee of the Company. In the event that the Closing does not occur, this award letter and the Plan shall be void.

 

By your execution and delivery of this letter, you agree to your participation in the Plan pursuant to the terms thereof and specifically acknowledge that participation in the Plan will be lieu of, and shall supersede any and all provisions providing for severance, retention or change of control payments or benefits, if any, set forth in you Offer Letter and all other prior oral or written plans, agreements, communications, negotiations, commitments and understandings with respect to such payments or benefits.

 

This agreement will become effective upon your execution or it in the space provided below and its delivery to Dennis W. Daniels, Vice-President, Corporate Administration and Human Resources.

Dear Michael:

 

This letter supersedes your promotional letter dated March 8, 2004. On behalf of ChipPAC, I am pleased to advise you of your promotion to the position of Acting Chief Financial Officer. In this position, you will report to Robert Krakauer, EVP Operations.

 

In this position, your compensation will include:

 

Effective April 1, 2004, your annual base salary is $200,000.00 (Two Hundred Thousand Dollars) to be paid on a semi-monthly basis.

 

You will continue to participate in the Short Term Incentive (STI) Plan with a target payout of 30% of your base salary.

 

You will receive an additional 2004 grant of 50,000 ChipPAC stock options, as a result of your promotion to Acting Chief Financial Officer for ChipPAC. The grant date and strike price are being determined and you will be informed of that information separately.

 

You will continue to participate in all the standard benefits offered to employees of ChipPAC, Inc. and vacation in accordance with the policy, based on your service.

 

We hope that you and ChipPAC will find continued mutual satisfaction with your employment. ChipPAC is excited about your continuing success with the company. ChipPAC continues to recognize the traditional Employment-At-Will doctrine between an employer and an employee, which means that either party has the right to terminate the employment relationship at any time with or without cause or notice. Similarly, we both agree that any dispute arising with respect to your employment, the termination of that employment, including any alleged breach of contract claims or breach of covenant of good faith and fair dealing related to your employment at ChipPAC shall be settled by binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association.


This letter and the Agreement contain the entire agreement with respect to your employment and supersede any prior agreements regarding your employment status. No ChipPAC representative, with the exception of ChipPAC’s President or Human Resources has any authority to modify or enter into an agreement or modification, express or implied, contrary to the foregoing.

 

Please indicate your acceptance of this promotion, which is effective as of April 1, 2004, by signing a copy of this letter in the space below and returning one copy of this letter to me no later than April 1, 2004.

 

Sincerely,
