Overview

We are a leading service provider of semiconductor packaging design, bump, probe, assembly, test and distribution solutions. We have the scale to provide a comprehensive range of semiconductor packaging and test solutions to a diversified global customer base servicing the computing, communications, consumer, automotive and industrial markets.

In August 2004, we completed the merger with ChipPAC, Inc. which resulted in ChipPAC, Inc. becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of ST Assembly Test Services Ltd. The merger was accounted for using the purchase method. Under the purchase method of accounting, the cost of approximately $1.1 billion to acquire ChipPAC, including transaction costs, was allocated to ChipPAC’s net assets based on their respective estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. We have included the financial results of ChipPAC in our financial results since August 5, 2004.

We voluntarily delisted from Nasdaq with effect from December 31, 2007 and terminated our ADR program with effect from April 30, 2008. We intend to seek to terminate the registration of our ordinary shares and our reporting obligations under the Exchange Act if and when we become eligible to do so.

Global Market Conditions

The United States and other countries have been experiencing deteriorating economic conditions, including unprecedented financial market disruption. If these trends in global economic conditions continues or deteriorates further, it may result in decreases in demand for our services. The current uncertainty in global economic conditions may also make it difficult for our customers to accurately forecast and plan future business activities. There can be no assurance that the continuing or deteriorating trends in global economic conditions will not adversely impact our results of operations, cash flow, financial position and or/prospects.

Furthermore, restrictions on credit globally and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in countries in which we have operations may impact economic activity and our results. Credit risk associated with our customers and our investment portfolio may also be adversely impacted. Financial market disruption may also result in increased interest expense or inability to obtain short-term financing for our operations.

Proposed Capital Reduction and Cash Distribution

In January 2008, we announced our intention to effect a proposed capital reduction to return surplus share capital in an amount of up to $813.0 million to our shareholders. At an extraordinary general meeting held on March 17, 2008, our shareholders approved the proposed capital reduction.

Among other conditions, the proposed capital reduction was subject to and conditional upon our Company being able to obtain adequate debt financing to fund the cash distribution pursuant to the capital reduction and the repayment of certain of our outstanding debt (including the redemption or repurchase of our senior notes that would otherwise restrict our ability to make the cash distribution and to finance the cash distribution) on terms and conditions acceptable to us. The amount of the cash distribution would accordingly have been determined based on the proceeds of such debt financing made available to us. In furtherance of the proposed capital reduction, we commenced a cash tender offer and consent solicitation in respect of our senior notes in June 2008 but terminated it in August 2008 because the financing condition under the tender offer and consent solicitation was not satisfied.

In February 2009, we announced that we will not be proceeding with the proposed capital reduction as previously approved at the March 2008 shareholders’ meeting, given the current economic environment, we have not been able to obtain debt financing to fund the proposed cash distribution on terms and conditions acceptable to us.

Temasek’s Subsidiary, STSPL’s, Tender Offer

In March 2007, Singapore Technologies Semiconductors Pte Ltd (STSPL), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Temasek, launched a voluntary conditional cash tender offer for our ordinary shares and ADSs that STSPL did not already own. Temasek, a private limited company incorporated in Singapore, is wholly-owned by the Minister for Finance (Incorporated) of Singapore, a body corporate constituted by the Minister for Finance (Incorporation) Act (Cap. 183). The tender offer also included an offer by STSPL for our outstanding $115.0 million aggregate principal amount of our zero coupon convertible notes and $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 2.5% convertible notes. Concurrently with the tender offer, STSPL made an options proposal to all holders of options granted under STATS ChipPAC’s share option plans.

In May 2007, the tender offer closed with STSPL and its concert parties holding 83.1% of the outstanding ordinary shares (including ordinary shares represented by ADSs, but excluding the ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of the $134.5 million aggregate principal amount of our 2.5% convertible notes acquired by STSPL) and $134.5 million aggregate principal amount of our 2.5% convertible notes. The balance $15.5 million outstanding principal amount of our 2.5% convertible notes were converted into ADSs in May 2007.

As of January 31, 2009, Temasek through STSPL, beneficially owned 1,845.7 million ordinary shares, representing approximately 83.8% of our Company’s ordinary shares following STSPL’s conversion of its entire $134.5 million of our 2.5% convertible notes into 145.1 million ordinary shares on May 22, 2008.

In 2007, we recorded tender offer expenses of $10.9 million, consisting of investment banking, legal, accounting, insurance, printing and other costs associated with the tender offer.

Changes in share ownership by shareholder may result in a limitation on the amount of the net operating losses and unutilized capital allowances that are available as carryforwards for use by us. We reviewed the tax effect of such a shareholder change in connection with the tender offer by STSPL in 2007. In January 2008, the Singapore tax authorities confirmed that the limitations relating to our ability to carryforward certain Singapore tax losses and capital allowances for offset against our future taxable profits in connection with the tender offer by STSPL were not affected subject to the fulfillment of certain continuing conditions. Concurrently, approximately $311.6 million of such tax losses and capital allowance carry forwards continued to be made available to our Company’s operations in Singapore.

Year Ended December 28, 2008 Compared to Year Ended December 30, 2007

Net Revenues

We derive revenues primarily from packaging and testing of laminate and leaded packages. Net revenues were $1,658.2 million in 2008, an increase of 0.4% compared to $1,651.6 million in 2007. The net revenues increase in 2008 was primarily due to increased packaging revenue from contribution from our factory in Pathumthani, Thailand, which we acquired in October 2007.

Our packaging revenues in 2008 increased 0.2% to $1,236.0 million, compared to 2007. Unit volumes of our total packaging in 2008 were 1.0% lower compared to 2007 and resulted in $12.5 million decrease in packaging revenues. Average selling prices per pin for packaging services in 2008 increased 1.2%, compared to 2007 due to favorable changes in product mix and contributed to an increase of $15.0 million in revenue. Revenues from test and other services in 2008 increased 1.0% to $422.2 million, compared to 2007.

In 2008, revenue contribution from the communications market decreased 0.7% over 2007 to $858.5 million and represented 51.8% of our revenues in 2008, compared to 52.5% of our net revenues in 2007. Revenue contribution from consumer, multi-applications and other markets in 2008 decreased 0.4% to $524.3 million and represented 31.6% of our net revenues in 2008 compared to 32% of our net revenues in 2007. Revenue contribution from the PC market in 2008 increased 1.1% to $275.4 million and represented 16.6% of our net revenues in 2008 compared to 15.5% of our net revenues in 2007. We expect to continue to depend on the communications, consumer and multi-applications, and PC markets for substantially all of our net revenues.

Gross Profit

Gross profit in 2008 was $274.4 million, a decrease of $46.9 million compared to $321.3 million in 2007. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues was 16.5% in 2008, compared to 19.5% in 2007. In 2008, gross margin decreased primarily due to lower equipment utilization and higher material cost. Overall equipment utilization was approximately 64% in 2008 compared to approximately 75% in 2007. Gross profit in 2008 included share-based compensation expense under SFAS 123(R) of $0.9 million in 2008 compared to $4.8 million in 2007, which reduced the gross margin by 0.1% in 2008. Our cost of revenues consist principally of fixed costs such as depreciation expenses, facility rental, utilities and facility operating costs and variable costs such as materials, payroll and operating supplies. We continue to experience higher cost as a result of external global economic factors, such as higher substrate, gold and oil prices which affected our cost of materials, and

the adverse effect of the strengthening of the Singapore dollar, Chinese Renminbi and Malaysian Ringgit against the U.S. dollar, particularly in the nine months ended September 28, 2008.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $118.3 million in 2008, an increase of 5.1% compared to $112.6 million in 2007. As a percentage of net revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses was 7.1% in 2008 compared to 6.8% in 2007. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in 2008 was primarily due to our acquisition of our factory in Pathumthani, Thailand in October 2007 and the Asian currencies appreciation against the U.S. dollar, particularly in the nine months ended September 28, 2008, partially offset by lower share-based compensation expense. In 2008, share-based compensation expense under SFAS 123(R) was $0.9 million, compared to $3.1 million in 2007.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses were $37.8 million in 2008, an increase of $2.9 million, compared to $34.9 million in 2007. Research and development expenses increased primarily due to the establishment of a facility for the research and development of advanced wafer integration technology in May 2007. As a percentage of net revenues, research and development expenses were 2.3% in 2008, compared to 2.1% in 2007.

Equipment Impairment

In 2008, we recorded an impairment charge of $21.1 million as a result of our ongoing assessment of property, plant and equipment for impairment. The $21.1 million equipment impairment was taken because continued softness in demand in the end-markets to which certain of our equipment was dedicated had reduced the anticipated future usage of such equipment.

We did not recorded any impairment charge in 2007 from our ongoing assessment of property, plant and equipment in connection with demand and anticipated future usage.

Restructuring Expenses

We recorded restructuring expenses of $19.8 million in 2008, compared to $1.0 million in 2007. The restructuring expenses in 2008 consisted of severance and related charges of $6.0 million in connection with our reduction of our workforce by 335 employees in the nine months ended September 28, 2008 and a further severance and related charges of $13.8 million in connection with our restructuring plan involving the reduction of approximately 1,600 employees, representing approximately 12% of our global workforce, which we announced in December 2008. We implemented the restructuring plan to aggressively reduce our operating costs in response to the severe operating environment. The workforce reduction is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2009.

In 2007, certain restructuring plans were executed to reduce operating costs to better align our expenses with revenues, which resulted in a total reduction in workforce of 143 employees, related to the restructuring. Severance and related charges of $1.0 million were incurred and expensed in 2007.

Accelerated Share-based Compensation

The STATS ChipPAC Ltd. Performance Share Plan was terminated in 2008. As a result, we recorded $1.6 million of accelerated share-based compensation expense in 2008. No accelerated share-based compensation expense was incurred in 2007.

Tender Offer Expenses

In 2007, we incurred $10.9 million, consisting of investment banking, legal, accounting, insurance, printing and other costs associated with the tender offer from STSPL, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Temasek. No tender offer expenses were incurred in 2008.

Held for Sale Asset Impairment

In 2007, we recorded a $1.7 million held for sale asset impairment loss on the sale of our packaging and test assets related to our discrete power business. No held for sale asset impairment was made in 2008.

Net Interest Income (Expense)

Net interest expense was $30.3 million in 2008, compared to $33.2 million in 2007. Interest income was $5.7 million in 2008, compared to $7.3 million in 2007. The decrease in interest income in 2008 was primarily due to lower interest rates, partially offset by higher cash balances in 2008 compared to 2007.

Interest expense was $36.0 million in 2008, compared to $40.5 million in 2007. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to our redemption of $115.0 million aggregate principal amount of our zero coupon notes from November 2007 through June 2008, the conversion of $134.5 million aggregate principal amount of our 2.5% convertible notes into ordinary shares by Temasek, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, STSPL, and decreases in short-term and long-term debts in Thailand, Taiwan and South Korea, in the aggregate of $191.1 million. Total outstanding interest-bearing debt was $473.5 million and $664.6 million as of December 28, 2008 and December 30, 2007, respectively.

Foreign Currency Exchange Gain (Loss)

Net foreign currency exchange gain was $5.2 million in 2008, compared to $2.5 million in 2007. These cash and non-cash gains were due primarily to the fluctuations in 2008 compared to the same periods in 2007 between the exchange rates of the U.S. Dollar and the Singapore dollar, the South Korean Won, the Chinese Renminbi and the Thai Baht.

Other Non-Operating Income (Expense), Net

Net other non-operating income was $0.03 million in 2008 compared to net other non-operating expense of $0.4 million in 2007.

Income Tax Expense

We record 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 asset 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 is made. In 2008, we increased valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets by $25.4 million. Our consolidated income tax expense was $19.2 million in 2008, compared to $29.6 million in 2007 based on the mix of tax rates and taxable income across the various jurisdictions in which we do business. Our primary tax jurisdictions are Singapore, South Korea, China, Malaysia, Taiwan, Thailand and the United States.

Year Ended December 30, 2007 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2006

Net Revenues

We derive revenues primarily from test and packaging of laminate and leaded packages. Net revenues were $1,651.6 million in 2007, an increase of 2.1% compared to $1,616.9 million in 2006. The increase was primarily due to the contribution from our factory in Pathumthani, Thailand, acquired in October 2007. This was partially offset by weak demand from certain large customers.

Our packaging revenue in 2007 increased 3.3% to $1,233.6 million compared to 2006. Unit volumes of our total packaging in 2007 were 1.4% higher compared to 2006 and resulted in an increase of $16.8 million in revenue. The average selling prices for our services have generally decreased over product life cycles. Our ability to maintain or increase our average selling price will continue to be dependent upon our ability to selectively increase pricing and shift to higher margin packaging and test services. Average selling prices per pin for packaging services in 2007 increased 1.9% compared to 2006, primarily due to changes in product mix, and contributed to an increase of $22.5 million in revenue. Revenue from test and other services in 2007 decreased 1.1% to $418.0 million compared to 2006.

In 2007, revenue contribution from the communications market decreased 4.2% over 2006 to $867.2 million and represented 52.5% of our revenues compared to 56.7% of our revenues in 2006. The revenue from the communications market remained relatively strong with continued demand for more complex, higher functionality mobile phone and infrastructure products. Revenue contribution from consumer, multi-applications and other markets increased 7.3% over 2006 to $528.5 million and represented 32.0% of our revenues in 2007 compared to 24.7% of our revenues in 2006. Revenue contribution from the PCs market decreased 3.2% over 2006 to $255.8 million and represented 15.5% of our revenues in 2007 compared to 18.7% of our revenues in

2006. We expect to continue to depend on the communications, consumer and multi-applications, and the PCs market for substantially all of our net revenues.

Gross Profit

Gross profit in 2007 was $321.3 million, a decrease of $4.9 million compared to $326.2 million in 2006. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues was 19.5% in 2007, compared to 20.2% in 2006. Gross profit in 2007 included $4.8 million of share-based compensation expense related to share options and employee share purchase rights under SFAS 123(R), which reduced gross margin by 0.3% in 2007. Overall equipment utilization was approximately 75% in both 2007 and 2006. Our cost of revenues consist principally of fixed costs such as depreciation and leasing expenses and variable costs such as direct and indirect labor, materials and overhead expenses. We continue to experience higher cost as a result of external global economic factors, such as higher substrate, gold and oil prices which affected our cost of materials, and the adverse effect of the strengthening of the Singapore dollar, South Korean Won, Chinese Renminbi, Thai Baht and Malaysian Ringgit against the U.S. dollar in 2007 when compared to 2006.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $112.6 million in 2007, a decrease of 19.3% compared to $139.5 million in 2006. As a percentage of net revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses were 6.8% in 2007 compared to 8.6% in 2006. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses in 2007 was primarily due to certain intangible assets related to the merger of former STATS and ChipPAC becoming fully amortized, lower Sarbanes-Oxley Act compliance related expenses and lower share-based compensation expense partially offset by higher payroll expense resulting from an increased number of employees and increased cost of general business support. In 2007, share-based compensation expense was $3.1 million under SFAS 123(R) compared to $6.1 million in 2006.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses were $34.9 million in 2007 compared to $30.4 million in 2006, an increase of $4.5 million. Research and development expenses increased primarily due to an increase in headcount and the establishment of a new facility for the research and development of advanced wafer integration technology. As a percentage of net revenues, research and development expenses were 2.1% in 2007 compared to 1.9% in 2006.

Held for Sale Asset Impairment

In 2007, we recorded a $1.7 million held for sale asset impairment loss on the sale of our packaging and test equipment related to our discrete power packaging business. We did not record any held for sale asset impairment charge in 2006.

Restructuring Charges

In 2007 and 2006, certain restructuring plans were executed to reduce operating costs to better align our expenses with revenues, which resulted in a total reduction in workforce of 143 and 556 employees, respectively, related to the restructuring. Severance and related charges of $1.0 million and $1.9 million were incurred and expensed in 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Tender Offer Expenses

In 2007, we incurred $10.9 million in expense in connection with the tender offer by STSPL which consisted of investment banking, legal, accounting, insurance, printing and other costs.

Net Interest Income (Expense)

Net interest expense was $33.2 million in 2007 compared to $40.4 million in 2006. Interest income was $7.3 million in 2007 compared to $5.4 million in 2006. The increase in interest income in 2007 was primarily due to an increase in cash equivalents and marketable securities held by us compared to 2006.

Interest expense was $40.5 million in 2007 compared to $45.8 million in 2006. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to the decrease in outstanding indebtedness as a result of our repurchase of $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 8.0% convertible subordinated notes due 2011 in October 2006, the redemption of our remaining $31.5 million aggregate principal amount of our 1.75% convertible notes upon maturity in March 2007, the redemption of $96.4 million aggregate principal amount of our zero coupon convertible notes and a decrease in long-term debts in Taiwan, partially offset by an increase in long-term debts

in South Korea. Total outstanding interest-bearing debt was $664.6 million and $762.9 million as of December 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.

Foreign Currency Exchange Gain (Loss)

Net foreign currency exchange gain was $2.5 million in 2007 compared to a net foreign currency exchange loss of $1.6 million in 2006. The non-cash gain in 2007 and loss in 2006 were due primarily to the fluctuations of the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Singapore dollar, South Korean Won, Chinese Renminbi and, in the case of 2007, Thai Baht.

Other Non-Operating Income (Expense)

Net other non-operating expense was $0.4 million in 2007 compared to net other non-operating income of $0.1 million in 2006.

Income Tax Expense

We record 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. Our consolidated income tax expense was $29.6 million in 2007 compared to $25.8 million in 2006 based on the mix of tax rates and taxable income across the various jurisdictions in which we do business. Our primary tax jurisdictions are Singapore, South Korea, China, Malaysia, Taiwan, Thailand and the United States.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal source of liquidity consists of cash flows from operating activities, bank facilities, debt financing, and our existing cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities. As of December 28, 2008, we had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $352.8 million. We also have available lines of credit and banking facilities consisting of loans, overdrafts, letters of credit and bank guarantees, including those available to our consolidated subsidiaries, which amounted to an aggregate of $263.2 million, of which $88.6 million was utilized as of December 28, 2008. Our liquidity needs arise primarily from servicing our outstanding debts, working capital needs and the funding of capital expenditures and investments. Our capital expenditures are largely driven by the demand for our services, primarily to increase our packaging and testing capacity, to replace packaging and testing equipment from time to time, and to expand our facilities and service offerings. We spent $239.0 million on capital expenditures in 2008, compared to $268.8 million in 2007. Our capital expenditure in 2008 was lower than 2007 due to the impact of the deterioration in the global economic condition to our business outlook.

In March 2007, we redeemed the remaining outstanding $31.5 million aggregate principal amount of our 1.75% convertible notes due 2007 (including accrued interest) for an aggregate consideration of $36.8 million. The repurchase was financed with our cash and cash equivalents.

In October 2007, we consummated the previously announced definitive agreement with LSI pursuant to which STATS ChipPAC (Thailand) Limited acquired LSI’s assembly and test operations in Thailand for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $100.0 million payable over the next four years commencing October 2, 2008. We funded $50.0 million of the purchase price with our working capital, including our cash and cash equivalents, and issued a promissory note bearing interest of 6.0% per annum for the balance $46.8 million purchase price, after taking into account a contractual net-off of $3.2 million of receivables from LSI. The first annual installment of $20.0 million was paid to LSI on October 2, 2008.

In November 2007, we paid a total of $114.1 million (including accrued yield-to-maturity interest up to November 7, 2007) to redeem $96.4 million aggregate principal amount of our zero coupon convertible notes. We financed the redemption with cash and short-term borrowings. In January and February 2008, we repurchased $12.4 million and $2.5 million aggregate principal of our zero coupon convertible notes for $14.7 million (including accrued yield-to-maturity interest) and $2.9 million (including accrued yield-to-maturity interest), respectively. We financed the repurchases with our cash and cash equivalents. In June 2008, we redeemed the remaining $3.7 million principal amount, representing 3.2% of the original principal amount of our zero coupon

convertible notes. We paid an aggregate consideration of $4.5 million (including accrued yield-to-maturity interest) and financed the redemption with cash in hand.

In May 2008, Temasek, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, STSPL, converted its holding of all of the outstanding $134.5 million principal amount of our 2.5% convertible notes into 145.1 million of our ordinary shares.

Among other conditions, the proposed capital reduction was subject to and conditional upon us being able to obtain adequate debt financing to fund the cash distribution pursuant to the capital reduction and the repayment of certain of our outstanding debt on terms and conditions acceptable to us. The amount of the cash distribution would accordingly have been determined based on the proceeds of such debt financing made available to us. In furtherance of the proposed capital reduction, we commenced a cash tender offer and consent solicitation in respect of our senior notes in June 2008 but terminated it in August 2008 because the financing condition under the tender offer and consent solicitation was not satisfied.

In February 2009, we announced that we will not be proceeding with the proposed capital reduction as previously approved at the March 2008 shareholders’ meeting, given the current economic environment, we has not been able to obtain debt financing to fund the proposed cash distribution on terms and conditions acceptable to us.

At the annual general meeting in April 2008, our shareholders approved the amendments to, and renewal of, our share purchase mandate, authorizing the repurchase of up to 2.5% of the issued ordinary shares in the capital of our Company as of the date of the annual general meeting. The approved amount for share repurchases under this shareholders’ mandate will terminate on the earlier of the date on which the next annual general meeting is held or required to be held or the date which the approval is revoked or varied. As of December 28, 2008, we have not repurchased any shares. We may use our available funds, draw down on our available lines of credit or seek additional financing or a combination of these to finance any repurchase of our ordinary shares.

We believe that our cash on hand, existing credit facilities and anticipated cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet our currently anticipated capital expenditure requirements, investment requirements, share repurchases, as well as debt service repayment obligations for 2009. However, under the current extreme market conditions as discussed under “— Global Market Conditions,” there can be no assurance that our business activity would be maintained at the expected level to generate the anticipated cash flows from operations.

If the current market conditions persist or further deteriorate, we may experience a decrease in demand for our services, resulting in our cash flows from operations being lower than anticipated. If our cash flows from operations is lower than anticipated, including as a result of the ongoing downturn in the market conditions generally or in the semiconductor industry more specifically or otherwise, or our capital requirements exceed our expectations as a result of higher than anticipated growth in the semiconductor industry, acquisition or investment opportunities, or the expansion of our business or otherwise, we may have to seek additional financing. In such events, there can be no assurance that additional financing will be available or, if available, that such financings can be obtained on terms favorable to us or that any additional financing will not be dilutive to our shareholders or detrimental to our creditors.

Total Borrowings

As of December 28, 2008, our total debt outstanding consisted of $473.5 million of borrowings, which included $215.0 million of our 6.75% senior notes due 2011, $150.0 million of our 7.5% senior notes due 2010, and other long-term and short-term borrowings.

In May 2007, we issued 16.7 million ordinary shares upon conversion of $15.5 million aggregate principal amount of our 2.5% convertible notes.

In October 2007, we consummated the previously announced definitive agreement with LSI pursuant to which STATS ChipPAC (Thailand) Limited acquired LSI’s assembly and test operations in Thailand for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $100.0 million. We funded the initial payment of $50.0 million of the aggregate purchase consideration with our cash and cash equivalents. STATS ChipPAC (Thailand) Limited issued a promissory note bearing interest of 6.0% per annum, payable annually, for the balance of the purchase price. The amount payable to LSI under the promissory note after contractual netting of certain receivables from LSI of $3.2 million amounted to $26.8 million as of December 28, 2008. The promissory note is payable in annual installments of $20.0 million, $10.0 million, $10.0 million and $6.8 million over four years commencing October 2, 2008. The first annual installment of $20.0 million was paid on October 2, 2008.

In November 2007, we redeemed $96.4 million aggregate principal amount of our zero coupon convertible notes pursuant to demands for redemption from note holders in accordance with the indenture governing these notes. We paid a total amount of $114.1 million (including yield-to-maturity interest accrued up to November 7, 2007) in respect of the convertible notes redemption. We financed the redemption with cash and short-term borrowings.

In January and February 2008, we repurchased the $12.4 million and $2.5 million aggregate principal of our zero coupon convertible notes for $14.7 million (including accrued yield-to-maturity interest) and $2.9 million (including accrued yield-to-maturity interest) respectively. We financed the repurchase of the $12.4 million and $2.5 million aggregate principal amount of these convertible notes with our cash and cash equivalents.

In June 2008, we redeemed the remaining $3.7 million principal amount, representing approximately 3.2% of the original principal amount, of our zero coupon convertible notes. We paid an aggregate consideration of $4.5 million (including accrued yield-to-maturity interest) and financed the redemption with cash in hand.

STATS ChipPAC Korea Ltd. has a line of credit from Hana Bank in South Korea with a credit limit of $25.0 million. During 2006, we borrowed $12.0 million under this facility to finance our purchase of a building and land in South Korea. In 2007, we borrowed an additional $3.6 million under this facility. As of December 28, 2008, the interest rate for our $12.0 million loan was 3.7% per annum and the interest rate for our $3.6 million loan was 3.5% per annum. Interest is payable on a monthly basis. The principal on the $12.0 million loan is repayable over eight equal quarterly installments from September 2007 to June 2009. The principal on our $3.6 million loan is repayable at maturity in June 2009. As of December 28, 2008, $0.6 million was held as a restricted deposit with the bank. These loans are secured by a pledge of land and a building with a combined net book value of $26.4 million as of December 28, 2008. As of December 28, 2008, $6.6 million of the loans was outstanding.

STATS ChipPAC Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation has a NT$3.6 billion floating rate New Taiwan dollar term loan facility ($106.9 million based on the exchange rate as of January 30, 2009) with a syndicate of lenders, with Taishin Bank as the sponsor bank. The loan drawdowns must be made within 24 months from the date of first drawdown which took place on February 18, 2007. As of December 28, 2008, STATS ChipPAC Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation has drawn down NT$0.7 billion ($20.8 million based on the exchange rate as of January 30, 2009) under the term loan facility. The term loan facility bore interest at a rate of 3.6% per annum in 2008 and interest is payable on a quarterly basis. The principal and interest on the loan is payable in nine quarterly installments commencing 24 months from first draw down date with the first eight quarterly installments each repaying 11% of the principal and the last quarterly installment repaying 12% of the principal. As of December 28, 2008, the outstanding balance on this facility was $21.2 million.

Notes :

(1)		Our senior notes, promissory note payable, short-term and long-term loans agreements contain provisions for the payment of interest either on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis at a stated rate of interest over the term of the debt. These payment obligations are not reflected in the table above. The interest payments due within one year, 1-3 years and 3-5 years amount to $28.0 million, $41.8 million and $0.01 million, respectively.

(2)		Our other non-current liabilities as of December 28, 2008 were $64.1 million, including $8.8 million related to retirement and severance benefits for our employees in Malaysia and Thailand, respectively. Also included in the other non-current liabilities is $13.9 million related to severance benefits for our employees in South Korea which were not included in the table due to lack of contractual certainty as to the timing of payments. Further, included in the other non-current liabilities as of December 28, 2008 was $7.5 million of liability for uncertain tax positions under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretations 48. We are unable to reasonably estimate the timing of the amount, therefore, the liability is excluded from the table.

Critical Accounting Policies

We believe the following accounting policies are critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations. Our preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. If actual results differ significantly from the estimates and assumptions, there could be a material adverse effect on our financial statements.

Revenue Recognition, Allowance For Doubtful Debts, Trade Discounts and Allowances and Sales Returns

We derive revenue primarily from wafer probe and bumping, packaging and testing of semiconductor integrated circuits. Net revenues represent the invoiced value of services rendered, net of returns, trade discounts and allowances, and excluding goods and services tax.

Revenue is recognized when there is evidence of an arrangement, fees are fixed or determinable, collectibility is reasonably assured, the service has been rendered, the revenue to be recognized is billable under the terms of the arrangement and not contingent upon completion of undelivered services, and, where applicable, delivery has occurred and risk of loss has passed to the customer. Such policies are consistent with the provisions in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.”

We generally do not take ownership of customer supplied semiconductors as these materials are sent to us on a consignment basis. Accordingly, the value of the customer supplied materials is neither reflected in revenue nor in cost of revenue.

We are subject to credit risk of our customers and we make estimates of the collectibility of our accounts receivable. We review the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and make specific allowance when there is doubt as to the collectibility of individual accounts. In evaluating the collectibility of individual receivable balances, we consider the age of the balance, the customer’s historical payment history, its current creditworthiness and current economic trends. We mitigate our credit risk through our credit evaluation process, credit policies, and credit control and collection procedures but these methods cannot eliminate all potential credit risk losses. Additional allowances may be required in the future if the financial condition of our customers or general economic conditions deteriorate. Our actual uncollectible accounts have not historically been significantly different from our estimates.

Similarly, we make estimates of potential sales returns and discounts which we allow for volume purchases and early payments as a deduction from gross revenue based on our historical experience and expectations of our customers’ ultimate purchase levels and payment timing. Actual revenues may differ from our estimates if future customer purchases or payment timing differ from our estimates, which may happen as a result of changes in general economic conditions, market demand for our customers’ products, or desire by our customers’ interest in achieving payment timing discounts. Our actual returns and discounts have not historically been significantly different from our estimates.

Valuation of Inventory

The valuation of inventory requires us to estimate obsolete or excess inventory as well as inventory that are not of saleable quality. The determination of obsolete or excess inventory requires us to estimate the future demand from our customers within specific time horizons, generally six months or less. The estimates of future demand that we use in the valuation of inventories are the forecasts provided by our customers. If our inventory for specific customer forecast is greater than actual demand, we may be required to record additional inventory reserves, which would have a negative impact on our gross margin.

Our inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on the weighted average basis, and market value, as estimated by us. Cost is generally computed on a standard cost basis, based on normal capacity utilization, with unrecoverable costs arising from underutilization of capacity expensed when incurred.

Depreciation and Amortization

Our operations are capital intensive and we have significant investment in testing and packaging equipment. We depreciate our property, plant and equipment based on our estimate of the period that we expect to derive economic benefits from their use. Our estimates of economic useful lives are set based on historical experience, future expectations and the likelihood of technological obsolescence arising from changes in production techniques or in market demand for the use of our equipment and machinery. However, business conditions, underlying technology and customers’ requirements may change in the future which could cause a change in the useful lives. Any change in useful lives could have a significant effect on our future operating results.

We believe that our principal competitors depreciate their packaging assets over periods of six to eight years.

Valuation of Property, Plant and Equipment

We review property, plant and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Management judgment is critical in assessing whether events have occurred that may impact the carrying value of property, plant and equipment.

Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated from the asset. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the future undiscounted net cash flows, such assets are considered to be impaired and an impairment charge is recognized for the amount that the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. In determining the fair value of equipment and machinery, we consider offers to purchase such equipment and expected future discounted cash flows. Due to the nature of our business, which may include sudden changes in demand in the end markets, and due to the fact that certain equipment is dedicated to specific customers, we may not be able to anticipate declines in the utility of our equipment and machinery. Generally, we consider consecutive quarterly utilization rate declines or projected utilization deterioration as principal factors for our impairment review. Consequently, additional impairment charges may be necessary in the future and this could have a significant negative impact on our future operating results.

We did not record any impairment charges in 2006. In 2007, we recorded impairment charges of $1.7 million on the disposal of the packaging and test equipment related to discrete power packages to Mingxin. In 2008, we recorded equipment impairment charges of $21.1 million as a result of our Company’s ongoing assessment of property, plant and equipment for impairment.

Deferred Tax Asset and Uncertain Income Tax Positions

We record a deferred tax asset when we believe that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized. The deferred tax effects of the tax losses, unutilized capital allowances carried forward and temporary differences arising primarily from property, plant and equipment are recognized because they are expected to be offset against future taxable income.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, we consider whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. We consider the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income based on our business plan and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, the assessment will be made if it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will realized. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period differ materially from current estimates. In the event that we are not able to realize the deferred tax assets, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would be charged to income in the period such determination was made which would result in a reduction of our net income.

We account for uncertainty in income taxes by prescribing a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. We recognize liabilities for uncertain income tax positions based on our estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be required. We also report interest and penalties related to uncertain income tax positions as income taxes.

For a discussion of significant items in deferred tax asset and uncertain tax positions, see Note 13 to our audited consolidated financial statements.

Valuation of Goodwill

We review goodwill for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. We determine the fair value based on a weighting of income or market approaches, or combination of both. Under the income approach, we calculate the fair value of a reporting unit based on the present value of estimated future cash flows. Under the market approach, we estimate the fair value based on market multiples of revenue or earnings for comparable companies. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that unit, goodwill is not impaired and we are not required to perform further testing. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then we must perform the second step of the impairment test in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. If the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then we record an impairment loss equal to the difference.

Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions include revenue growth rates and operating margins used to calculate projected future cash flows, risk-adjusted discount rates, future economic and market conditions, and determination of appropriate market comparables. We base our fair value estimates on assumptions we believe to be reasonable but that are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Actual future results may differ from those estimates.

We performed an impairment review of the goodwill associated with the acquisition of ChipPAC at the end of 2004, with the determination of fair value supplemented by independent appraisal and recorded an impairment charge of $453.0 million to our results of operations in 2004. In 2006, 2007 and 2008, we completed our annual test for impairment and determined that the fair value of the reporting units exceeds their carrying value, and therefore goodwill was not impaired.

Contingencies

We are subject to claims and litigations, which arise in the normal course of business. These claims and litigations may include allegations of infringement of intellectual property rights of others, disputes over tax assessments, environmental liability, labor, products, as well as other claims of liabilities.

We assess the likelihood of an adverse judgment or outcome for these matters, as well as the range of potential losses. A determination of the reserves required, if any, is made after careful analysis. The required reserves may change in the future due to new developments impacting the probability of a loss, the estimate of such loss, and the probability of recovery of such loss from third parties.

Market Risks

We are exposed to financial market risks, including changes in currency exchange rates and interest rates. To mitigate the currency exchange risks, a substantial majority of our revenue, material and equipment supplies are transacted in U.S. dollars. We may employ derivative instruments such as forward foreign currency swaps, foreign currency contracts and options and interest rate swaps to manage our foreign exchange and interest rate exposures. These instruments are generally used to reduce or eliminate the financial risks associated with our assets and liabilities and not for trading purposes.

Investment and Interest Rates

Our exposure to market risk associated with changes in interest rates primarily relates to our investment portfolio and debt obligations. We place our investments in time deposits and marketable securities. We mitigate default risk by investing in marketable securities that are of at least an “A” rating, as assigned by an internationally recognized credit rating organization, and major Singapore banks and government-linked companies. We have no material cash flow exposure due to rate changes for cash equivalents and short-term investments. The fair value of fixed rate debts will vary as interest rates change. As of December 28, 2008, our short-term and long-term debt obligations for the $215.0 million of 6.75% senior notes due 2011 and $150.0 million of 7.5% senior notes due 2010 bear fixed interest rate. The 6.75% senior notes due 2011 and 7.5% senior notes due 2010 bear interest of 6.75% and 7.5% per annum, respectively.

Currency Exchange Rates

A portion of our costs is denominated in various foreign currencies, like the Singapore dollar, the South Korean Won, the Chinese Renminbi, the Malaysian Ringgit, the Thai Baht, the New Taiwan dollar and the Japanese Yen. As a result, changes in the exchange rates of these currencies or any other applicable currencies to the U.S. dollar will affect our cost of goods sold and operating margins and could result in exchange losses. We have entered into foreign currency contracts to mitigate financial risks associated with payroll costs, materials costs and other costs denominated in Singapore dollars, South Korean Won and Malaysia Ringgit to reduce our exposure from future exchange rate fluctuations.

Based on our overall currency rate exposure, we have adopted a foreign currency hedging policy for committed or forecasted currency exposures. As of December 28, 2008, we had a series of foreign currency forward contracts with total outstanding contract value of approximately $59.5 million to hedge against fluctuation in Singapore dollars, South Korean Won, Malaysian Ringgit and Chinese Renminbi. We may utilize foreign currency swaps as well as foreign exchange forward contracts and options. These programs reduce, but do not always entirely eliminate, the impact of currency exchange movements. The goal of the hedging policy is to effectively manage risk associated with fluctuations in the value of the foreign currency, thereby making financial results more stable and predictable. However, we cannot assure you that any hedging policy we implement will be effective and we may experience reduced operating margins if any such policies are unsuccessful.

We have performed sensitivity analyses as of December 30, 2007 and December 28, 2008 by measuring the change in fair values arising from a hypothetical 10% adverse movement in the exchange rates for all the currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, with all other variables held constant. The analyses cover our foreign currencies monetary denominated assets and liabilities. The foreign currency exchange rates we used were based on our closing exchange rates as of December 31, 2007 and December 28, 2008. The sensitivity analyses indicated that a hypothetical 10% adverse movement, after taking into account offsetting positions, would result in a foreign exchange gain of $0.7 million and a foreign exchange gain of $0.5 million as of December 30, 2007 and December 28, 2008, respectively.

Currency, maturity, interest rate and fair value information relating to our marketable securities and, short-term and long-term debt are disclosed in Notes 1(l), 4, 14, 15 and 25 to our audited consolidated financial statements, respectively.

Commodity Price

We purchase certain raw materials in the normal course of business, which are affected by commodity prices. Therefore, we are exposed to some price volatility related to various market conditions outside our control.

MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act.

Internal control over financial reporting refers to a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

	•		pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

	•		provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and members of our Board of Directors; and

	•		provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process, and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 28, 2008 using the framework set forth in the report of the Treadway Commission’s Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (“COSO”), “Internal Control — Integrated Framework.”

Based on the foregoing, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 28, 2008. Our independent registered public accounting firm, PwC, has issued an audit report on our internal control over financial reporting, which is included herein.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
STATS ChipPAC Ltd.:

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income, of shareholders’ equity and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of STATS ChipPAC Ltd. and its subsidiaries at December 28, 2008 and December 30, 2007, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 28, 2008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 28, 2008, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements and on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

As discussed in Notes 1(bb) and 13 to the financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for uncertain tax positions in 2007 and as discussed in Notes 1(w) and 21 to the financial statements, the Company changed the manner in which it accounts for share-based compensation in 2006.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

STATS ChipPAC Ltd. (“STATS ChipPAC” and together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is an independent provider of a full range of semiconductor test and packaging services. The Company has operations in Singapore, South Korea, China, Malaysia, Thailand, Taiwan, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Japan and in the United States of America, its principal market.

In 2007, Winstek Semiconductor Corporation changed its name to STATS ChipPAC Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. The Company owned approximately 52% of STATS ChipPAC Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation’s total shares outstanding as of December 28, 2008.

Temasek Holdings (Private) Limited (“Temasek”), through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Singapore Technologies Semiconductors Pte Ltd (“STSPL”), beneficially owned approximately 83.8% of the Company as of December 28, 2008. Temasek, a private limited company incorporated in Singapore, is wholly-owned by the Minister for Finance (Incorporated) of Singapore, a body constituted by the Minister for Finance (Incorporation) Act (Cap. 183).

Proposed Capital Reduction Exercise and Related Financing Transaction

In January 2008, the Company announced its intention to effect a proposed capital reduction to return surplus share capital in an amount of up to $813,000 to the shareholders. At an extraordinary general meeting held on March 17, 2008, the shareholders approved the proposed capital reduction.

Among other conditions, the proposed capital reduction was subject to and conditional upon the Company being able to obtain adequate debt to fund the cash distribution pursuant to the capital reduction and the repayment of certain of the outstanding debt on terms and conditions acceptable to the Company. The amount of the cash distribution would accordingly have been determined based on the proceeds of such debt financing made available to the Company. In furtherance of the proposed capital reduction, the Company commenced a cash tender offer and consent solicitation in respect of its senior notes in June 2008 but terminated it in August 2008 because the financing condition under the tender offer and consent solicitation was not satisfied.

In February 2009, the Company announced that it will not proceed with the proposed capital reduction as previously approved at the March 2008 shareholders’ meeting, given the current economic environment, the Company has not been able to obtain financing to fund the cash distribution and the repayment of certain outstanding debts on terms and conditions acceptable to the Company.

Acquisition of LSI Corporation’s assembly and test facility in Thailand

In October 2007, the Company consummated the previously announced definitive agreement with LSI Corporation (“LSI”) to acquire LSI’s assembly and test operation in Thailand for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $100,000, payable over the next four years. The Company financed the initial payment of $50,000 of the purchase consideration with the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, and issued promissory notes bearing interest of 6.0% per annum for the balance of the purchase price. The purchase price was assigned primarily to property, plant and equipment, and goodwill. The impact of the acquisition was not material to the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

Temasek’s Subsidiary, Singapore Technologies Semiconductors Pte Ltd’s Tender Offer

In March 2007, STSPL, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Temasek, announced its intention to launch a voluntary conditional cash tender offer for the ordinary shares and American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) of the Company that STSPL did not already own. The tender offer also included an offer by STSPL for the Company’s outstanding $115,000 aggregate principal amount of zero coupon convertible notes due 2008 and $150,000 aggregate principal amount of 2.5% convertible subordinated notes due 2008. Concurrently with the tender offer, STSPL made an options proposal to all holders of options granted under STATS ChipPAC share option plans.

In May 2007, the tender offer closed with STSPL and its concert parties holding 83.1% of the outstanding ordinary shares and ADSs (excluding the ordinary shares from the potential conversion of the $134,500 aggregate principal amount of the 2.5% convertible subordinated notes due 2008 acquired by STSPL) and $134,500 aggregate principal amount of the 2.5% convertible subordinated notes due 2008. The balance $15,500 outstanding principal amount of the 2.5% convertible subordinated notes due 2008 was converted by its holder into ADS in May 2007.

As of December 28, 2008, Temasek, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, STSPL, beneficially owned 1,845,715,689 ordinary shares, representing 83.8% of the Company’s ordinary shares, following STSPL’s conversion of its entire $134,500 of the Company’s 2.5% convertible subordinated notes due 2008 into 145,138,660 ordinary shares in May 2008.

In 2007, the Company recorded tender offer expenses of $10,922, consisting of investment banking, legal, accounting, insurance, printing and other costs associated with the tender offer. No tender offer expenses were incurred in 2008.

(b) Fiscal Year

Since the beginning of fiscal 2005, the Company has employed fiscal year and fiscal quarter reporting periods. STATS ChipPAC’s 52-53 week fiscal year ends on the Sunday nearest and prior to December 31. STATS ChipPAC’s fiscal quarters end on a Sunday and are generally thirteen weeks in length. Fiscal year 2008, a 52-week year, ended on December 28, 2008, fiscal year 2007, a 52-week year, ended on December 30, 2007, and fiscal year 2006, a 53-week year, ended on December 31, 2006. Unless otherwise stated, all years and dates refer to STATS ChipPAC’s fiscal years.

(c) Accounting Principles

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) consistently applied for all periods.

(d) Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of STATS ChipPAC and its majority-owned subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

(e) Issuances of Stock by Subsidiaries

Changes in the Company’s proportionate share of the underlying net equity of a subsidiary, which result from the issuance of additional stock to third parties, are recognized as increases or decreases to shareholders’ equity.

(f) Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates made by management include: the useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets as well as future cash flows to be generated by those assets; discounts and allowances relating to volume purchases and other incentive programs offered to customers, allowances for doubtful accounts, sales returns; valuation allowances for deferred tax assets; provision for inventory losses; fair value of reporting units; and contingent liabilities, among others. Determining the fair value of purchased intangible asset is judgmental in nature and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions include revenue growth rates and operating margins used to calculate projected future cash flows, risk-adjusted discount rates, assumed royalty rates, future economic and market conditions and determination of appropriate market comparables. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

(g) Foreign Currency Transactions

The Company predominantly utilizes the U.S. dollar as its functional currency. Assets and liabilities which are denominated in foreign currencies are converted into the functional currency at the rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Income and expenses which are denominated in foreign currencies are converted at the average rates of exchange prevailing during the period. Foreign currency transaction gains or losses are included in results of operations.

STATS ChipPAC Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation designates the New Taiwan Dollar as its functional currency. Where the functional currency of a subsidiary is other than the Company’s U.S. dollar reporting currency, the financial statements are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date for assets and liabilities and average exchange rates for the reporting period for the results of operations. Adjustments resulting from translation of such foreign subsidiary financial statements are reported within accumulated other comprehensive loss, which is reflected as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.

(h) Certain Risks and Concentrations

The Company’s customers are comprised of companies in the semiconductor industry located primarily in the United States of America, Europe and Asia. The semiconductor industry is highly cyclical and experiences significant fluctuations in customer demand, evolving industry standards, competitive pricing pressure that leads to steady declines in average selling prices, rapid technological changes, risk associated with foreign currencies and enforcement of intellectual property rights. Additionally, the market in which the Company operates is very competitive. As a result of these industry and market characteristics, key elements of competition in the independent semiconductor packaging market include breadth of packaging offerings, time-to-market, technical competence, design services quality, production yields, reliability of customer service and price.

The Company’s largest customer accounted for approximately 11%, 10% and 12% of revenues in 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively. The Company’s ten largest customers collectively accounted for approximately 65%, 67% and 67% of revenues in 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively. The Company mitigates the concentration of credit risk in trade receivables through the Company’s credit evaluation process, credit policies, credit control and collection procedures but these methods cannot eliminate all potential credit risk losses. The withdrawal of commitment from any major customer for products, or reduced or delayed demand or the loss of or default by any of these major customers could have an adverse effect upon the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Cash and cash equivalents are deposited with financial institutions primarily in Singapore, Taiwan, the United States of America, Thailand, South Korea, China, Malaysia and British Virgin Islands. Deposits in the financial institutions may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits, if any. The Company utilizes forward contracts to protect against the effects of foreign currency fluctuations. Such contracts involve the risk of non-performance by the counterparty, which could result in a material loss. The Company has not experienced any such losses to date from non-performance by its counterparties.

South Korean, Chinese, Malaysian and Thailand foreign currency exchange regulators may place restrictions on the flow of foreign funds into and out of those countries. The Company is required to comply with these regulations when entering into transactions in foreign currencies in South Korea, China, Malaysia and Thailand.

(i) Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into cash and have original maturities of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents consisted of cash, deposit accounts and money market funds as of December 28, 2008.

F-9

STATS CHIPPAC LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

In thousands of U.S. Dollars (except per share data)

(j) Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists of time deposits and government bonds held in connection with foreign regulatory requirement and as collateral for bank loans. As of December 30, 2007 and December 28, 2008, there were $1,612 and $1,012 of long-term restricted cash, respectively.

(k) Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company recognizes all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measures those instruments at fair value. Changes in the fair value of those instruments will be reported in earnings or other comprehensive income depending on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. The accounting for gains and losses associated with changes in the fair value of derivatives and the effect on the consolidated financial statements will depend on the derivatives’ hedge designation and whether the hedge is highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in the fair values of cash flows of the asset or liability hedged. Ineffectiveness of the hedge or termination of the hedged transaction may result in amounts be classified from other comprehensive income (loss).

The Company operates in various countries, and accordingly, is subject to the inherent risks associated with foreign exchange rate movements. The Company has established risk management policies for committed or forecasted exposures to protect against volatility of future cash flows. These programs reduce, but do not always entirely eliminate, the impact of the currency exchange or commodity price movements.

In 2007 and 2008, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts to protect the Company from fluctuations in exchange rates. At December 30, 2007, and December 28, 2008, the Company had a series of foreign currency forward contracts with total contract value of approximately $206,000 and $59,000, respectively, qualifying as cash flow hedges as defined by SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” The duration of these instruments are generally less than 12 months. At December 28, 2008, the Company had realized and unrealized loss of $9,972 and $14,463, respectively, on its foreign currency forward contracts. At December 30, 2007, the Company had realized and unrealized gain of $2,034 and $1,736, respectively, on its foreign currency forward contracts. In 2008, the Company have included in earnings, loss on hedging instruments of $9,469 due to termination of certain of its foreign currency forward contracts and unrecoverable hedging loss. Certain foreign currency forward contracts to economically hedge certain committed exposures are not designated as hedges. Accordingly, the changes in fair value of these foreign currency forward contracts are reported in earnings.

(l) Marketable Securities

Marketable securities at December 30, 2007 and December 28, 2008 consist of corporate debt securities and certificates of deposits denominated in U.S. dollars, Chinese Renminbi and New Taiwan dollars. The Company classifies its securities in one of three categories: trading, available-for-sale, or held-to-maturity. Trading securities are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term. Held-to-maturity securities are those securities in which the Company has the ability and intent to hold the security until maturity. All securities not included in trading or held-to-maturity are classified as available-for-sale.

Trading and available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value. Held-to-maturity securities are recorded at amortized cost, adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts. Unrealized holding gains and losses on trading securities are included in earnings. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the related tax effect, if any, on available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and are reported as a separate component of other comprehensive loss until realized. Realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale securities are determined on a specific identification basis.

A decline in the market value of individual available-for-sale or held-to-maturity securities below cost that is deemed to be other than temporary results in a reduction in its carrying amount to fair value, with the impairment charged to earnings and a new cost basis for the security being established. Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life of the related held-to-maturity security as an adjustment to yield using the effective interest method. Dividend and interest income are recognized when earned.

(m) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of standard cost, which approximates actual cost determined on the weighted average basis, or market value. Reserves are established for excess and obsolete inventories based on estimates of salability and forecasted future demand. The Company generally does not take ownership of customer supplied semiconductors, and accordingly does not include them as part of the Company’s inventories.

(n) Equity Method Investments

Investments in entities in which the Company can exercise significant influence, but owns less than a majority equity interest, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The Company’s unrealized profit arising from sales by the Company to equity method investee are eliminated to the extent of the Company’s ownership. In 2006, the Company acquired a 25% shareholding in Micro Assembly Technologies Limited (“MAT”) for $10,154.

(o) Business Combination

Business combinations are accounted for using the purchase method accounting. Business combinations which are accounted for under the purchase method accounting include the results of operations of the acquired business from the effective date of acquisition. Any excess of the purchase price over estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

(p) Goodwill

The Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis in the designated quarters for its different reporting units, and whenever circumstances indicate the carrying value of the goodwill may have been impaired. The impairment test is performed by first comparing the fair value of the applicable reporting unit to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the impairment test is performed to determine the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step of the test involves the comparison of the implied fair value of the goodwill to its carrying value. If the carrying value of reporting unit goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss is recognized for an amount equal to the excess. The implied fair value of reporting unit is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a purchase business combination.

The estimates of fair value of a reporting unit are determined using various valuation techniques with the primary technique being a discounted cash flow analysis. A discounted cash flow analysis requires the Company to make various judgmental assumptions including assumptions about future cash flows, growth rates and discount rates. The assumptions about future cash flows and growth rates are based on the Company’s budget and long-term plans. In estimating fair values of its reporting units, the Company also uses comparable market analyses.

(q) Intangible Assets

The Company capitalizes direct costs associated with acquisition, development or purchase of patent rights and technology licenses for use in its processes. These costs are amortized over the shorter of the useful life or license period. In addition, intangible assets acquired in business combinations accounted for under the purchase method of accounting are recorded at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at the date of acquisition. In connection with the merger with ChipPAC, Inc. (“ChipPAC”), the cost of intangible assets acquired comprising tradenames, technology, intellectual property and customer relationships, software and licenses, were recorded based on the fair values of those intangible assets on August 5, 2004 based on management’s estimate of the fair value of these intangible assets. Management considered a number of factors when estimating fair value, including appraisals, discounted cash flow analysis, estimated royalty rates and appropriate market comparables.

Acquired intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is calculated on the straight-line method over the following periods:

F-11

STATS CHIPPAC LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
In thousands of U.S. Dollars (except per share data)


Tradenames		7 years
Technology and intellectual property		10 years
Customer relationships		2 years
Software and licenses		3 to 5 years

(r) Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the following periods:


Land use rights		50 to 99 years
Building, mechanical and electrical installation		3 to 25 years
Equipment		2 to 8 years

No depreciation is provided on property, plant and equipment under installation or construction and freehold land. Repairs and replacements of a routine nature are expensed, while those that extend the life of an asset are capitalized.

Plant and equipment under capital leases are stated at the present value of minimum lease payments and are amortized straight-line over the estimated useful life of the assets.

(s) Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverability of a long-lived asset is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount to the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of a long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. In determining the fair value of the long-lived asset, the Company considers the estimated market value from vendor and prices of similar assets.

For long-lived assets held for sale, the carrying value is measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell and depreciation is ceased. Long-lived assets to be abandoned will be considered held and used until it is disposed of.

(t) Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The Company applies SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income” with respect to reporting and presentation of comprehensive income (loss) and its components in a full set of financial statements. Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income, foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale marketable securities and hedging instruments, and is presented in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

(u) Revenue Recognition

Revenue is derived primarily from wafer probe and bumping, packaging and testing of semiconductor integrated circuits. Net revenues represent the invoiced value of services rendered net of returns, trade discounts and allowances, and excluding goods and services tax.

Revenue is recognized when there is evidence of an arrangement, fees are fixed or determinable, collectibility is reasonably assured, the service has been rendered, the revenue to be recognized is billable under the terms of the arrangement and not contingent upon completion of undelivered services, and, where applicable, delivery has occurred and risk of loss has passed to the customer. Such policies are consistent with the provisions in Securities Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.”

The Company generally does not take ownership of customer supplied semiconductors as these materials are sent to the Company on a consignment basis. Accordingly, the values of the customer supplied materials are neither reflected in revenue nor in cost of revenue.

Provisions are made for estimates of potential sales returns and discounts allowance for volume purchases and early payments and are recorded as a deduction from gross revenue based upon historical experience and expectations of customers’ ultimate purchase levels and timing of payment. Actual revenues may differ from estimates if future customer purchases or payment timing differ, which may happen as a result of changes in general economic conditions, market demand for the customers’ products, or by customers’ desire to achieve payment timing discounts. Actual returns and discounts have not historically been significantly different from estimates. In addition, specific returns and discounts are provided for at the time their existence is known and the amounts are estimable.

The following sets forth the percentage of net revenues by packaging products group and testing services:


	Year Ended
	December 31,			December 30,			December 28,
	2006			2007			2008
Revenue
— packaging — laminate		55.5	%		56.3	%		56.5	%
— packaging — leaded		18.3			18.4			18.0
— test and other services		26.2			25.3			25.5

Total		100.0	%		100.0	%		100.0	%

Provisions are made for collectibility of accounts receivable when there is doubt as to the collectibility of individual accounts. Collectibility is assessed based on the age of the balance, the customer’s historical payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends.

(v) Grants

Asset-related government grants consist of grants for the purchase of equipment used for research and development activities. Asset-related grants are presented in the consolidated balance sheet as deferred grants and are credited to income on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the relevant assets.

Income-related government grants are subsidies of training and research and development expenses. Income-related grants are credited to income when it becomes probable that expenditures already incurred will constitute qualifying expenditures for purposes of reimbursement under the grants, which is typically substantially concurrent with the expenditures.

There are no restrictions on transferring technology or manufacturing products developed with government grants.

(w) Share-Based Compensation

Share-based compensation represents the cost related to share-based awards made to employees and directors. In 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”), which requires the measurement of share-based compensation expense for all share-based payment awards based on estimated fair value. The Company measures grant-date fair value estimates and recognizes the share-based compensation expense on a graded vesting basis net of estimated forfeitures over the requisite service period. Prior to 2006, the Company measured share-based employee compensation expense in accordance with the intrinsic method of APB No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”), and its related interpretations, and included pro forma information in accordance with SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”) as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure.”

In thousands of U.S. Dollars (except per share data)

In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission released SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, “Share-Based Payment” (“SAB 107”). SAB 107 contains interpretive guidance related to the interaction between SFAS 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations, as well as provides the SEC’s views regarding the valuation of share-based payment. The Company has applied the provisions of SAB 107 in its adoption of SFAS 123(R). At December 28, 2008, the Company has two share-based compensation plans, which are more fully described in Note 21. The Company terminated two share-based compensation plans in 2008.

(x) Employee Benefit Plans

STATS ChipPAC Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation operates a defined benefit retirement plan for a substantial portion of its employees in Taiwan in accordance with the Labor Standards Law in Taiwan. Pension benefits are generally based on years of service and average salary for the six months prior to the approved retirement date. STATS ChipPAC Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation contributes 2% of eligible wages and salaries on a monthly basis to a pension fund maintained with the Central Trust of China, as required by the Labor Standards Law. At each year end, STATS ChipPAC Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation actuarially determines pension benefit costs and obligations using the projected unit credit method, and the amounts calculated depend on a variety of assumptions. These assumptions include discount rates, rates for expected returns on plan assets, mortality rates and retirement rates. The funding of the pension plan is determined in accordance with statutory funding requirements. STATS ChipPAC Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation is obligated to make up any shortfall in the plan’s assets in meeting the benefits accrued to the participating staff. As of December 28, 2008, there was no shortfall in the plan’s assets. Total pension plan expenses in 2006, 2007 and 2008 were approximately $5, $7 and $19, respectively.

STATS ChipPAC, Inc. and STATS ChipPAC Test Services, Inc. have a 401(k) savings plan where the Company matches 50% of employee contributions up to 6% of eligible employee compensation. The Company’s matching contributions under the 401(k) plan were $457, $470 and $471 in 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively. The matching contributions are accrued monthly based upon actual employee contribution. The expenses relating to the plan are a minimum annual charge of $2 and $0.028 per person and are accrued on a monthly basis. Returns of the 401(k) plan from investments in mutual funds are calculated daily by an external administrator who administers the plan.

Under the Labor Standards Law of South Korea, employees with more than one year of service are entitled to receive a lump-sum payment upon termination of their employment with STATS ChipPAC Korea Ltd. (“STATS ChipPAC Korea”), based on their length of service and rate of pay at the time of termination. Accrued severance benefits are adjusted annually for all eligible employees based on their employment as of balance sheet date. The expense for severance benefits in 2006, 2007 and 2008 was approximately $9,119, $10,671 and $8,196, respectively.

Under the Labor Standards Law in Thailand, employees with more than 120 days of service are entitled to receive a lump sum payment upon retirement or involuntary termination of their employment with STATS ChipPAC (Thailand) Limited, based on their length of service and the latest salary at the time of retirement or involuntary termination. The expense for severance benefits in 2007 and 2008 were approximately $1,360 and $690, respectively.

The Company participates in a number of defined contribution retirement benefit plans in certain countries of operations. Contributions are based on a percentage of each eligible employee’s salary and are expensed as the related salaries are incurred. The Company incurred expenses of approximately $12,849, $15,331 and $16,825 with respect to these retirement plans in 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively.

(y) Operating Leases

Rental payments under operating leases are expensed on a straight-line basis over the periods of the respective leases.

(z) Product Warranties

The Company guarantees that work performed will be free from any defects in workmanship, materials and manufacture generally for a period ranging from three to twelve months to meet the stated functionality as

agreed to in each sales arrangement. Products are tested against specified functionality requirements prior to delivery, but the Company nevertheless from time to time experiences claims under its warranty guarantees. The Company accrues for estimated warranty costs under those guarantees based upon historical experience, and for specific items at the time their existence is known and the amounts are determinable. Warranty costs incurred in 2006, 2007 and 2008 were insignificant.

(aa) Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

(bb) Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities in the financial statements and their respective tax bases, and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded for loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets where it is more likely than not that such loss carryforwards and deferred tax assets will not be realized.

In the ordinary course of business there is inherent uncertainty in quantifying the Company’s income tax positions. The Company assesses, its income tax positions and record tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon evaluation of the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting dates. For those tax positions where it is more-likely-than-not that a tax benefit will be sustained, the Company records the tax benefit with a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. For those income tax positions where it is not more-likely-than-not that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit has been recognized in the financial statements. The Company recognizes interest accrued and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

The Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” (FIN 48) in 2007. As a result of this adoption, the Company recognized a charge of approximately $518 to the January 1, 2007 accumulated deficit balance.

(cc) Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding and dilutive potential ordinary shares from the assumed exercise of share options outstanding during the period, if any, using the treasury stock method plus other potentially dilutive securities outstanding, such as convertible notes.

The Company excluded certain potentially dilutive securities for each period presented from its diluted net income per share computation because the exercise price of the securities exceeded the average fair value of the Company’s ordinary shares and therefore these securities were anti-dilutive.

A summary of the excluded potentially dilutive securities outstanding and the range of related exercise prices follows:


	December 31,		December 30,		December 28,
	2006		2007		2008
Convertible notes		82,454		10,613		—
Share plans		103,508		15,609		14,310

(ee) New Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes guidelines for measuring fair value and expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements. SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements but rather eliminates inconsistencies in guidance found in various prior accounting pronouncements. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company adopted SFAS 157 for financial assets and financial liabilities in 2008 and its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations. In February 2008, the FASB issued staff position No. 157-2 (“FSP 157-2”) which delays the effective date of SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (annually). FSP 157-2 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. In October 2008, the FASB issued staff position No. 157-3 (“FSP 157-3”) which clarifies the application of SFAS 157 in a market that is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active. FSP 157-3 is effective upon its issuance on October 10, 2008, including prior periods for which financial statements have not been issued. The adoption of FSP 157-3 did not have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

The Company is currently assessing the impact of SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities on its consolidated financial position and results of operations. SFAS 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). SFAS 157 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: (Level 1) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; (Level 2) inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and (Level 3) unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. Refer to Note 25 for fair value information of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R)” (“SFAS 158”). This standard requires employers to recognize the underfunded or overfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in the funded status in the year in which the changes occur through accumulated other comprehensive income, which is a component of stockholders’ equity. The new reporting requirements and related new footnote disclosure rules of SFAS 158 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006. Additionally, SFAS 158 requires employers to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position effective for fiscal year ending after December 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS 158 does not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159 “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — including an Amendment of SFAS No. 115” (“SFAS 159”), which permits companies to measure certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. SFAS 159 requires that unrealized gains and losses are reported in earnings for items measured using the fair value option. SFAS 159 amends previous guidance to extend the use of the fair value option to available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of SFAS 159 in 2008 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141(R)”), which replaces SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations.” SFAS 141(R) retains the underlying concepts of SFAS 141 in that all business combinations are still required to be accounted for at fair value under the acquisition method of accounting but SFAS 141(R) changed the method of applying the acquisition method in a number of significant aspects. Acquisition costs will generally be expensed as incurred; noncontrolling interests will be valued at fair value at the acquisition date; in-process research and development will be recorded at fair value as an indefinite-lived intangible asset at the acquisition date; restructuring costs associated with a business combination will generally be expensed subsequent to the acquisition date; and changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and income tax uncertainties after the acquisition date generally will affect income tax expense. SFAS 141(R) is effective on a prospective basis for all business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual period subsequent to December 15, 2008, with the exception of the accounting for valuation allowances on deferred taxes and acquired tax contingencies. SFAS 141(R) amends SFAS 109 such that adjustments made to valuation allowances on deferred taxes and acquired tax contingencies associated with acquisitions that closed prior to the effective date of SFAS 141(R) would also apply the provisions of SFAS 141(R). If such liabilities are settled for lesser amounts prior to the adoption of SFAS 141(R), the reversal of any remaining liability will affect goodwill. If such liabilities reverse subsequent to the adoption of SFAS 141(R), such reversals will affect the income tax provision in the period of reversal. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects, if any, that SFAS 141(R) may have on its financial statements; however, since the Company acquired significant deferred tax assets for which valuation allowances were recorded at the acquisition date, SFAS 141(R) could significantly affect the results of operations if changes in the valuation allowances occur subsequent to adoption. As of December 28, 2008, the Company has established deferred tax valuation allowances of $33,913 in purchase accounting. Refer to Note 13 for information on deferred tax valuation allowances.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 requires the recognition of a noncontrolling (minority) interest as equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate from the parent’s equity. The amount of net income attributable to the noncontrolling (minority) interest will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement. It also amends certain of ARB No. 51’s consolidation procedures for consistency with the requirements of SFAS 141(R). This statement also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its noncontrolling interest. SFAS 160 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2008 and should be applied prospectively. However, the presentation and disclosure requirements of the statement shall be applied retrospectively for all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of SFAS 160 on its consolidated financial statements and anticipates that SFAS 160 will not have a significant impact on the reporting of its results of operations.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — an amendment of SFAS No. 133” (“SFAS 161”), which is intended to improve financial reporting

about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of SFAS 161 on its consolidated financial statements.

2. Related Party Transactions

The Company’s operations in Singapore are conducted in a building constructed on land held on a long-term operating lease from a statutory board of the Government of Singapore.

The Company extended $5,000 and $15,000 loans to a vendor in June 2003 and January 2004, respectively, to secure a specified minimum quantity of substrates up to December 2008. The loans are interest-free and are collateralized by equipment purchased by the loan monies, mortgage on the factory of the vendor and 2,400 shares of the vendor. The 2,400 shares of the vendor’s equity were released in April 2008 and no longer form part of the collateral. The loans of $5,000 and $15,000 were fully repaid in June 2007 and December 2008, respectively.

In May 2007, the Company entered into an agreement to sell packaging and test equipment related to discrete power packages to Ningbo Mingxin Microelectronics Co. Ltd. (“Mingxin”) for an aggregate consideration of $10,000 payable approximately over two years. The Company has separately classified the related assets of $10,000 in 2007 as assets held for sale, a component of other current assets. In 2007 and 2008, $657 and $9,343 of the assets have been transferred to Mingxin, respectively. These held for sale assets were recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. As a result, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $1,725 in 2007.

9. Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment consist of the following:


	December 30,		December 28,
	2007		2008
Cost:
Freehold land	$	11,010	$	10,703

Total cost	$	2,438,563	$	2,516,280

Total accumulated depreciation	$	1,162,073	$	1,299,938

Property, plant and equipment, net	$	1,276,490	$	1,216,342

Depreciation charged to results of operations, including depreciation related to assets under capital leases, amounted to $229,067, $246,554 and $275,044 in 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively.

The Company routinely reviews the remaining estimated useful lives of its equipment to determine if such lives should be adjusted due to the likelihood of technological obsolescence arising from changes in production techniques or in market demand for the use of its equipment. However, due to the nature of the packaging and testing operations, which may include sudden changes in demand in the end markets, and due to the fact that certain equipment is dedicated to specific customers, the Company may not be able to accurately anticipate declines in the utility of its equipment.

Equipment impairment charges of $21,091 were recorded in 2008 as a result of the Company’s ongoing assessment of property, plant and equipment for impairment. The equipment impairment charges were taken because continued softness in demand in the end-markets to which certain of the equipment was dedicated had reduced the anticipated future usage of such equipment.

Land use rights represent payments to secure, on a fully-paid up basis, the use of properties where the Company’s facilities are located in Shanghai, China and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for a period of 50 and 99 years, respectively. The land use rights expire in the year 2044 for Shanghai, China and in the year 2086 for Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The Company’s Singapore facilities are located in a building constructed on land held on a 30-year operating lease which is renewable for a further 30-year period subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions. The facilities in Hsin-Chu Hsien, Taiwan, Incheon City, South Korea and Pathumthani, Thailand are located on freehold land.

There was no equipment under capital lease as of December 30, 2007 and December 28, 2008.

In 2006, 2007 and 2008, the Company performed its annual test for impairment and determined that the fair value of the reporting units exceeds their carrying value, and therefore goodwill was not impaired.

The Company cannot predict the occurence of certain events or circumstances that might adversely affect the carrying value of goodwill in future. Such events may include, but are not limited to, strategic decisions made in response to economic and competitive conditions and the impact of the economic environment on the Company’s business.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of (a) temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes, and (b) operating loss, unutilized capital allowance and investment tax credit carryforwards. The tax effect of significant items comprising the Company’s deferred income tax assets and liabilities at December 30, 2007 and December 28, 2008 are as follows:


	December 30,			December 28,

In 2004, as part of the acquisition of ChipPAC, the Company acquired approximately $103,351 of net operating loss carryforwards, $32,185 of tax credit carryforwards and $47,023 of reinvestment allowance that were recognized as deferred tax assets upon acquisition. The Company established a valuation allowance of $53,973 against all of the net operating loss carryforwards and reinvestment allowance, and a portion of the Korean tax credit carryforwards in 2004. If utilized, these attributes will be treated as a reduction in acquired goodwill in accordance with the requirements of SFAS 141 and prior to the effectiveness of SFAS 141(R). In 2007 and 2008, $4,040 and $991 of the United States, South Korea and China net operating loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards, respectively, were utilized and accordingly the goodwill related to the acquisition of ChipPAC was reduced by $4,040 and $991, respectively. Subsequent to the adoption of FAS141(R) effective date January 1, 2009, the above rule will no longer apply and any benefit realized will be recorded as a reduction of income tax expense. As of December 28, 2008, the Company has established deferred tax valuation allowances of $33,913 in purchase accounting.

The deferred tax assets as of December 30, 2007 and December 28, 2008 arose principally as a result of the deferred tax benefit associated with operating loss carryforwards, investment, and research and development tax credits, reinvestment allowance and deductible temporary differences on property, plant and equipment.

As of December 28, 2008, the Company had approximately $122,119 of tax loss carryforwards available to offset against future taxable income, certain amounts of which will expire in varying amounts from 2009 to 2025.

As of December 28, 2008, the Company had approximately $5,011, $304,780, $34,424 and $163,503 of research and development, unutilized capital allowances, investment tax credits and reinvestment allowance, respectively, which can be used to offset income tax payable in future years. Certain credits will expire in varying amounts from 2009 through 2013.

The Company recorded a valuation allowance of $131,948 and $157,394 as of December 30, 2007 and December 28, 2008, respectively, which represents an increase of $12,163 and $25,446 in 2007 and 2008, respectively, to reduce the assets to the amounts that the Company deemed, more likely than not, that the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income based on business plans, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible, the Company established a partial valuation allowance against its gross deferred tax assets to reduce the assets to the amount the Company deemed, more likely than not, that the deferred tax assets will be realized.

The Company’s subsidiary in China, STATS ChipPAC Shanghai Co., Ltd. qualifies for a tax holiday from State Department of China under the foreign investment policy. STATS ChipPAC Shanghai Co., Ltd. is exempted from tax for two years followed by three years of 50% tax exemption, commencing from the first profitable year of operations (2006). This tax holiday will expire on December 31, 2010.

Changes in share ownership by shareholder may result in a limitation on the amount of the Singapore net operating losses and unutilized capital allowances that are available as carryforwards for use by the Company. The Company reviewed the tax effect of such a shareholder change in connection with the tender offer by STSPL in 2007. In 2008, the Singapore tax authorities confirmed that the limitations relating to the Company’s ability to carryforward certain Singapore tax losses and capital allowances for offset against future taxable profits of the Company in connection with the tender offer by STSPL were not affected subject to the fulfillment of certain continuing conditions. Concurrently, approximately $311,611 of such tax losses and capital allowance carryforwards continued to be made available to the Company’s operations in Singapore.

The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48 in 2007. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company recognized an additional $518 liability on unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions in various jurisdictions and accounted for the increase as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle that resulted in an increase to accumulated deficit of $518 as of January 1, 2007. In 2007 and 2008, the Company recorded a $13,677 and $4,165 increase in tax reserves relating to certain tax matters prior to August 2004. This increased the goodwill related to the acquisition of ChipPAC accordingly by $13,677 and $4,165 in 2007 and 2008, respectively. In addition, the Company reclassified $17,930 relating to certain tax matters prior to August 2004 from deferred tax liabilities to liability for unrecognized tax benefits in 2008. A reconciliation of the unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:


	December 30,		December 28,
	2007		2008
Unrecognized tax benefits:
Beginning	$	518	$	21,422

In 2007 and 2008, $7,383 and $8,787 have been further reserved as a liability on unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions and is accounted for as a current income tax adjustment due to an increase of the current period activity related to uncertain tax positions. It is estimated that the uncertain tax position will increase by approximately $1,932 in the next twelve months given the same level of future taxable profit as 2008. The Company also expects the uncertain tax position to decrease by approximately $34,621 in the next twelve months due to settlements with taxing authorities. Included in the unrecognized tax benefits is an amount of $7,383 and $16,170 which if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate for 2007 and 2008, respectively.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to the unrecognized tax benefits in the income tax expense. In 2008, the Company recognized $7,860 of interest and penalties in earnings. As of December 28, 2008, the Company has approximately $11,523 of such accrued interest and penalties.

Annually, the Company files income tax returns in various jurisdictions. The Company is under tax examination in certain of these jurisdictions and is engaged with the South Korean National Tax Service (the “NTS”) through a Mutual Agreement Procedure (“MAP”) relating to withholding tax not collected on the interest income on the loan between the ChipPAC’s subsidiaries in South Korea and Hungary for the period from 1999 to 2002. The years still open to audit by the foreign tax authorities, which represent the years still subject to the statute of limitations, in major jurisdictions include Singapore (2001 onward), South Korea (2002 onward), Malaysia (2002 onward), United States (1999 onward), China (2002 onward) and Taiwan (2006 onward). Audit resolutions could potentially reduce the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits, either because the tax positions are not sustained on audit or because the Company agrees to tax disallowances.

In 2008, the Singapore Economic Development Board (“EDB”) offered the Company a five year tax incentive for its Singapore operations commencing July 1, 2007, whereby certain qualifying income will be subject to a concessionary tax rate of 5% instead of the Singapore statutory rate of 18%, subject to the fulfillment of certain continuing conditions.

14. Short-Term Borrowings

The Company has a line of credit from Bank of America with credit limit of $50,000, of which $50,000 was outstanding as of December 28, 2008. The facility bore average interest rates of 5.6% in 2007 and 3.6% in 2008, respectively. The line of credit is subject to periodic review by the lender for the continued use of the facility. In 2008, we had facilities with Hana Bank and the National Agricultural Cooperation Federation Bank in South Korea in the aggregate of $25,000. These facilities expired during the year.

their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. On or after November 15, 2008, the Company may redeem all or a part of these notes at any time at the redemption prices specified under the terms and conditions of the senior notes plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, prior to November 15, 2007, the Company may redeem up to 35% of these notes with the net proceeds of certain equity offerings. Upon a change of control, the Company will be required to offer to purchase these notes at 101.0% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.

On July 19, 2005, the Company issued $150,000 of senior unsecured notes due July 19, 2010 for net proceeds of $146,535. The senior notes bear interest rate of 7.5% per annum payable semi-annually on January 19 and July 19 of each year. At the maturity date, 100.0% of the principal amount will be due and payable. Prior to July 19, 2010, the Company may redeem all or a part of the senior notes at any time by paying a “make whole” premium plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Upon a change of control, the Company will be required to offer to purchase these notes at 101.0% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. A portion of the net proceeds were used to repay the then outstanding $99,000 short-term debts with Overseas-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited and Bank of America N.A.

On November 7, 2003, the Company issued $115,000 of senior, unsecured and unsubordinated convertible notes due November 7, 2008, for net proceeds of $112,345. The convertible notes have a yield to maturity of 4.25%. At the maturity date, 123.4% of the principal amount, comprising principal and redemption interest, will be due and payable. The notes can be converted into the Company’s ordinary shares or, subject to certain limitations, ADSs, each of which currently represents ten ordinary shares, at an initial conversion price of S$3.05 per ordinary share (equivalent to an initial number of 570.5902 ordinary shares per $1,000 principal amount of convertible notes, based on a fixed exchange rate of US$1.00 = S$1.7403). The Company may elect to satisfy its obligations to deliver ordinary shares or ADSs through the payment of cash in accordance with the terms of the notes. The Company may redeem all or a portion of the convertible notes at any time on or after November 7, 2006 at a price to yield of 4.25% per annum to the redemption date if the Company’s shares or ADSs trade at or above 130% of the conversion price for a period of 20 trading days in any 30 consecutive trading day period. The note holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their notes on November 7, 2007 at a price equal to 118.32% (to arrive at effective yield of 4.25%) of the principal amount of the notes being redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid interest accrued to the date of redemption. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain repayment events, including a change in control, on or prior to November 7, 2008, each note holder may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of such holder’s notes at a price to yield of 4.25% per year to the redemption date. In 2007, the Company redeemed $96,449 aggregate principal amount of the zero coupon convertible notes due 2008 pursuant to demands for redemption from note holders in accordance with the indenture governing the zero coupon convertible notes. The Company paid a total amount of $114,118 (including accretion of yield-to-maturity interest on the convertible notes) in respect of the convertible notes redemption. The Company financed the redemption with cash and short-term borrowings. In 2008, the Company repurchased the outstanding $18,551 aggregate principal amount of the zero coupon convertible notes for $22,057 (including accretion of yield-to-maturity interest on the convertible notes). We financed the repurchase with cash in hand.

The conversion price of the zero coupon convertible senior notes may be subject to adjustments upon occurrence of the following: (1) on share distribution, share split or share consolidation; (2) on issue or distribution of the Company’s ordinary shares, or subsidiaries’ issue of any securities or rights which are convertible into or exchangeable for the Company’s ordinary shares, to all or substantially all holders of the Company’s ordinary shares for below the reasonable range of fair market value; (3) on issue or distribution to all or substantially all holders of the Company’s ordinary shares of warrants or rights to purchase or subscribe for the Company’s ordinary shares for below the reasonable range of fair market value; (4) on issue or distribution to all or substantially all holders of the Company’s ordinary shares of assets or other securities, including rights to acquire those assets or other securities, for below the reasonable range of the assets or other securities’ fair market value; (5) on issue or distribution of “extraordinary dividends” (defined as a total dividend that is equal to or exceeds (i) 2% of the one year average closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares if the Company has never paid cash dividends, or (ii) the lower of (a) two times the largest

aggregate cash dividends in any previous year, and (b) the largest aggregate cash dividends in any previous year plus 1% of the one year average closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares if the Company has paid cash dividends at least once); and (6) on spin-off of any of the Company’s subsidiaries or other business units. The terms of the indentures governing the zero coupon convertible senior notes provide that the ordinary shares deliverable upon conversion would not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933.

The $150,000 2.5% convertible subordinated notes due 2008 are ChipPAC’s unsecured and subordinated obligations. These convertible notes will mature on June 1, 2008 and bear interest at a rate of 2.5% per annum payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year. On the maturity date of these convertible notes, ChipPAC will pay to the note holders of these convertible notes 100% of the principal amount. These convertible notes can be converted into the Company’s ADSs at a conversion price of $9.267 per ADS. These convertible notes are not redeemable at the option of ChipPAC. Upon the occurrence of specified change in control events, each holder of these notes may require ChipPAC to repurchase all or a portion of such holder’s notes at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof on the date of purchase plus accrued and unpaid interest. On October 11, 2004, STATS ChipPAC, ChipPAC and the trustee for these convertible notes entered into a second supplemental indenture to provide for an unconditional guarantee of these convertible notes on a subordinated basis by STATS ChipPAC (but not by any of its subsidiaries). On October 18, 2004, ChipPAC commenced a consent solicitation from holders of these convertible notes to amend the indenture governing these convertible notes to replace ChipPAC’s obligation to file with the SEC annual reports and such other information, documents and reports specified in Section 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act of 1934 with an obligation of STATS ChipPAC to file all such reports with the SEC as are applicable to a foreign private issuer. The consent solicitation expired on November 1, 2004. ChipPAC received valid deliveries of consents from holders of approximately $130,500 aggregate principal amount, or 87%, of these convertible notes outstanding. Accordingly, ChipPAC obtained the requisite consents authorizing the adoption of the proposed amendment to the indenture. The consents were accepted and the amendments to the indenture became effective on November 2, 2004.

In May 2007, in connection with the tender offer by STSPL for equity securities of our Company, STSPL acquired $134,500 aggregate principal amount of these convertible notes. The balance $15,500 principal amount of the 2.5% convertible subordinated notes were converted into 1,672,601 ADSs (equivalent to 16,726,010 ordinary shares) in May 2007. In November 2007, we entered into a letter agreement with STSPL pursuant to which STSPL agreed to the following: (1) the conversion right of these convertible notes will be satisfied by a delivery of our ordinary shares in lieu of ADSs upon conversion of these convertible notes, (2) we have no obligation to list or cause to have quoted the ADSs on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange or over-the-counter market or any other market, (3) if our reporting obligations under the Exchange Act are terminated, we have no obligation to file with the SEC or provide the trustee for these convertible notes any reports, information or documents or comply with the provisions of the U.S. Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and (4) before STSPL transfers any of these convertible notes, it will procure the transferee to deliver a letter substantially in the form of the November 2007 letter or consent to the Company, STATS ChipPAC, Inc. and the trustee entering into a supplemental indenture to amend the indenture to effect the foregoing. In 2008, STSPL converted its entire $134,500 aggregate principal amount into ordinary share as discussed in Note 2.

The conversion price of the 2.5% convertible subordinated notes may be subject to adjustments upon occurrence of the following: (1) on share distribution, share split or share consolidation; (2) on issue or distribution to all or substantially all holders of the Company’s ordinary shares of warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase the Company’s ordinary shares, or securities convertible into the Company’s ordinary shares, at a price per share or a conversion price per share below the reasonable range of fair market value; (3) on issue or distribution to all or substantially all holders of the Company’s ordinary shares any shares of capital stock of the Company, evidences of indebtedness or other non-cash assets (excluding (i) dividends, distributions and rights or warrants referred to above, and (ii) dividends or distributions paid in cash), or rights or warrants to subscribe for, or purchase any of the Company’s securities (excluding those rights or warrants referred to above); (4) on issue or distribution to all or substantially all holders of the Company’s ordinary shares of all cash distributions in an aggregate amount that, together with (a) any cash and any other consideration payable in respect of any purchase by the Company of the Company’s ordinary shares consummated within the preceding 12 months not triggering a conversion price adjustment and (b) all cash distributions to all or substantially all holders of the Company’s ordinary shares made within the preceding 12 months not triggering a conversion price adjustment, exceeds 10% of the Company’s then market capitalization; and (5) on purchase by the Company of the Company’s ordinary shares to the extent it

involves aggregate consideration that, together with (a) any cash and any other consideration payable in respect of any purchase by the Company of the Company’s ordinary shares consummated within the preceding 12 months not triggering a conversion price adjustment and (b) all cash distributions to all or substantially all holders of the Company’s ordinary shares made within the preceding 12 months not triggering a conversion price adjustment, exceeds 10% of the Company’s then market capitalization.

The terms of the indentures governing the 2.5% convertible subordinated notes permit only issuance of new shares. There is no net cash or net share settlement provisions. Also, pursuant to the registration rights agreement relating to the 2.5% convertible subordinated notes, shelf registration was required to be maintained for a period of two years. The shelf registration requirement of the 2.5% convertible subordinated notes has been continued via a registration statement on Form F-3/S-3 filed on October 13, 2004 and which offering had been terminated on October 11, 2006.

The various provisions of the convertible notes were evaluated by the Company to determine whether any specific conversion features should be bifurcated from the debt host instrument and accounted for as separate derivatives. The Company concluded that conversion options, conversion price adjustments, option to settle for cash upon conversion, the Company’s call option and note holders’ put option embedded in the convertibles notes may be classified as equity and therefore do not need to be accounted for separately from the debt host instruments. The change in control put options are determined to be clearly and closely related to the debt host instrument and are not required to be accounted for separately. Further, the conversion prices were out-of-the-money at the commitment dates and did not result in bifurcation of beneficial conversion features.

On October 2, 2007, the Company issued a $50,000 promissory note carrying interest, payable annually, of 6% per annum to LSI in connection with the acquisition of an assembly and test operations in Thailand. The amount payable to LSI after contractual netting of certain receivables from LSI of $3,200 amounted to $46,800 as of December 30, 2007. The promissory note is payable over 4 yearly installments of $20,000, $10,000, $10,000 and $6,800 over the next 4 years. The first installment of $20,000 was paid to LSI in 2008.

STATS ChipPAC Korea Ltd. has a line of credit from Hana Bank in South Korea with a credit limit of $25,000.

STATS ChipPAC Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation has a NT$3.6 billion ($106,872 based on the exchange rate as January 30, 2009) with a syndicate of lenders, with Taishin Bank as the sponsor bank. The loan drawdowns must be made within 24 months from the date of first drawdown which took place on February 18, 2007. As of December 28, 2008, STATS ChipPAC Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation has drawn down NT$0.7 billion ($20,781 based on the exchange rate as of January 30, 2009) under the term loan facility.

18. Share Capital and Additional Paid-in Capital

The Company is incorporated in Singapore. Under Singapore law, all increases in share capital (including rights issues) require prior shareholders’ approval. Effective January 30, 2006, the Company was subjected to the amendments promulgated under the Companies (Amendment) Act of 2005 of Singapore. These amendments included the abolition of the ordinary share par value and authorized capital. The relevant amendments have resulted in all ordinary shares being recorded with no par value. The amendments do not affect the actual number of ordinary shares issued and the paid up capital of the Company. As a result of the abolition of the ordinary share par value, the balance of the additional paid-in capital amounting to $1,517,175 became part of the share capital as of January 30, 2006 which increased the share capital account on that date to $1,820,277.

As a result of the employees exercising their share options and purchase rights in 2006, 2007 and 2008, 26,522,092, 27,793,536 and 9,745,970 ordinary shares were issued, respectively.

In 2007 and 2008, the Company issued 1,672,601 ADSs (equivalent to 16,726,010 ordinary shares) and 145,138,660 ordinary shares upon conversion of $15,500 and $134,500 aggregate principal amount of its 2.5% convertible subordinated notes due 2008, respectively.

19. Share Repurchase

The Companies (Amendment) Act 2005 of Singapore was made effective on January 30, 2006. As a result of these amendments, a Singapore company can now repurchase shares out of capital, as well as from distributable profits, and ordinary shares repurchased by a company can be held by that company as treasury shares instead of being cancelled. At the annual general meeting in April 2007, the Company obtained shareholders’ approval for the repurchase of up to approximately 51 million ordinary shares (2.5% of the issued ordinary share capital as of the date of the annual general meeting). The approved amount for share repurchases under this shareholders’ mandate will terminate on the earlier of the date on which the next annual general meeting is held or the date which the approval is revoked or varied. As of December 28, 2008, the Company had not repurchased any shares.

20. Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income

The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss are as follows:


	December 30,			December 28,
	2007			2008
Currency translation loss	$	(7,086	)	$	(7,589	)

Unrealized loss on available-for-sale marketable securities		(897	)		(606	)

	$	(7,605	)	$	(12,308	)

21. Share Options and Incentive Plans

As of December 28, 2008, the Company had outstanding grants under two share-based compensation plans. Two of the Company’s share-based compensation plans were terminated in 2008 pursuant to the Company’s consideration on replacement of its long term compensation strategy.

The Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123(R) in 2006. For share-based awards, the Company recognizes compensation expense on a graded vesting basis over the requisite service period of the award. The share-based compensation expense under SFAS 123(R) was as follows:

The Company issued Restricted Shares Units (“RSUs”) and contingent Performance Share Plan (“PSP”) awards in 2007 pursuant to the Restricted Share Plan (“RSP”) and the PSP, respectively. No share options were granted in 2007, as the RSP is intended to replace the grants of share options under the STATS ChipPAC Ltd. Share Option Plan, as amended. In January 2008, the Company decided to terminate the STATS ChipPAC Ltd. Performance Share Plan (the “PSP”) and the STATS ChipPAC Ltd. Employee Share Purchase Plan 2004 (the “ESPP”). The termination became effective in end March 2008. The STATS ChipPAC Share Option Plan, as amended, was phased out in 2006 and replaced by the RSP. No Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”), contingent Performance Share Plan awards, employee share purchase rights or share options were granted in 2008.

SFAS 123(R) requires the cash flows resulting from the tax benefits for tax deductions in excess of the compensation expense recorded for those options (excess tax benefits) to be classified as financing cash flows. In 2007 and 2008, the windfall tax benefit realized from exercised employee share options was insignificant.

Concurrently with the tender offer (refer to “Temasek’s Subsidiary, Singapore Technologies Semiconductors Pte Ltd’s Tender Offer” in Note 1(a)), STSPL made an options proposal to all holders of options granted under the STATS ChipPAC share option plans whereby the participating holders would agree not to exercise their options for new shares or to exercise their rights as option holders. During the tender offer period, 85,348,090 options were surrendered pursuant to the options proposal.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the value of the shares on the date that the RSUs and contingent PSP awards vest.

In 2008, 2.1 million ordinary shares were issued pursuant to the RSP. No issue of shares pursuant to RSP awards were made in 2007.

No issue of shares pursuant to contingent PSP awards was made in 2007 and 2008. Upon the termination of the PSP in March 2008, the Company cancelled the 2,935,000 unvested Contingent PSP awards in 2008. As a result, the Company recorded $1,562 of accelerated share-based compensation expense in 2008.

The fair value of the contingent PSP awards for 2007 was calculated with the following assumptions:


		Year Ended
		December 30, 2007
Expected term		3 years
Dividend yield		0.0%
Risk free interest rate		3.0%
Weighted average volatility		40.0%

For the employee share purchase rights under the terms of the ESPP granted prior to its termination in March 2008, the total number of shares purchased under the plan and the Company’s matching contribution of 20% of the contribution of the ESPP participants by issuing shares, can vary as the purchase price per share was determined based on the fair market value at the end of the purchase period. Therefore the final measure of compensation cost for these rights was determined at the end of the purchase period, on which the number of shares an employee was entitled and the purchase price were determinable. The Company calculated estimated compensation cost as of the balance sheet date prior to the end of the purchase period based on the current estimation of the number of shares to be purchased under the plan and the level of contribution, as determined in accordance with the terms of the ESPP.

The Company estimated the grant-date fair value of share options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model incorporated various and highly subjective assumptions including expected volatility, expected term and interest rates. The expected volatility was based on the implied volatility and trading history of the Company’s shares over the most recent period that commensurate with the estimated expected term of the Company’s share options. The estimated term of the Company’s share options was derived from historical experience. Estimates of fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by persons who receive equity awards.

The fair value of share options granted in 2006 is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:


	Year Ended
	December 31, 2006
Expected term		3 - 7 years
Dividend yield		0.0	%
Risk free interest rate		3.0% - 3.4	%
Weighted average volatility		39.1	%

The Company estimated the fair value of RSUs based on the market price of ordinary shares on the date of grant. The fair value of contingent PSP awards was calculated using the market price of ordinary shares on the date of award, adjusted to the market-based performance conditions represented by total shareholders’ return on a certain set of absolute and relative to benchmark company criteria.

As of December 30, 2007 and December 28, 2008, there were $29 and $2,510, and $5 and $683 of unrecognized share-based compensation expenses, respectively, related to approximately 658,456 and 86,766 of unvested share option awards and 6,302 and 3,564 of unvested RSUs, respectively, net of $24 and $1 of estimated share option award forfeitures and $160 and $113 of estimated RSU forfeitures, respectively. In 2008, these costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.0 and 1.1 years for share options and the RSUs, respectively. In 2007, these costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.0 and 1.6 years for share options and the RSUs, respectively.

In 2007 and 2008, the total grant-date fair value of share options that vested were $11,114 and $6,003. The total intrinsic value of share options exercised in 2007 and 2008 were $6,699 and $12, respectively. In 2007 and 2008, the value of the 16,549,520 and 7,625,760 shares issued for ESPP purchases were $12,944 and $6,132 and employees contributed $12,968 and $4,704 to the ESPP, respectively.

These unconditional purchase obligations include agreements to purchase goods or services that are enforceable and legally binding on the Company and specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased, fixed or variable price provisions and the approximate timing of transactions. The duration of these purchase obligations are generally less than 12 months.

The Company is party to certain royalty and licensing agreements which have anticipated payments of approximately $6,128 per annum for 2009 through 2013.

The Company leases certain of its facilities in Singapore, South Korea and the United States under operation lease arrangements and has lease agreements for the land located in Singapore, Malaysia and China related to its facilities in these locations. Operating lease rental expense in 2006, 2007 and 2008 was $11,084, $11,277 and $11,794, respectively.

The Company has leased certain plant and equipment under operating leases. These leases extend through 2010. Operating lease rental expenses, including amortization of lease prepayments, in respect of these leases in 2006, 2007 and 2008 were $21,749, $1,954 and $4,662, respectively.

(b) Contingencies

The Company is subject to claims and litigations, which arise in the normal course of business. These claims may include allegations of infringement of intellectual property rights of others as well as other claims of liability. The Company accrues liability associated with these claims and litigations when they are probable and reasonably estimable.

In February 2006, the Company, ChipPAC and STATS ChipPAC (BVI) Limited were named as defendants in a patent infringement lawsuit filed in United States Federal Court for the Northern District of California (the “California Litigation”). The plaintiff, Tessera Technologies, Inc. (“Tessera”), has asserted that semiconductor chip packaging, specifically devices having Ball Grid Array (“BGA”) and multi-chip BGA configurations used by the defendants infringe certain patents of Tessera. Tessera has further asserted that the Company is in breach of an existing license agreement entered into by Tessera with ChipPAC, which agreement has been assigned by ChipPAC to the Company.

In May 2007, at Tessera’s request, the United States International Trade Commission (the “ITC”) instituted an investigation (the “First ITC Investigation”) of certain of the Company’s co-defendants in the California Litigation and other companies, including certain of the Company’s customers. In addition, in April 2007, Tessera instituted an action in the Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Texas (the “Texas Action”) against certain of the Company’s co-defendants in the California Litigation and other companies. In the First ITC Investigation, Tessera seeks an order preventing the named companies from importing certain packaged semiconductor chips and products containing them into the United States. The Texas Action seeks damages and injunctive relief against the named defendants. Both the First ITC Investigation and the Texas Action

F-35

STATS CHIPPAC LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
In thousands of U.S. Dollars (except per share data)

allege infringement of two of the same patents asserted by Tessera in the California Litigation, and may involve some of the same products packaged by the Company that are included in the California Litigation. The target date currently set by the ITC for the conclusion of the First ITC Investigation is April 2009.

In May 2008, the ITC instituted an investigation (the “Second ITC Investigation”) of the Company and other semiconductor package assembly service providers that are included in the California Litigation. In the Second ITC Investigation, Tessera seeks an order to prevent the Company and other named companies (collectively, the “Respondents”) from providing packaging or assembly services for certain packaged semiconductor chips incorporating small format non-tape BGA semiconductor packages and products containing them, for importation into the United States. In addition, Tessera seeks a general exclusion order excluding from importation all small format non-tape BGA semiconductor packages (and downstream products containing such packages), regardless of whether such packages are assembled by the Respondents. The Second ITC Investigation alleges infringement of three of the same patents asserted by Tessera in the California Litigation. The Company responded to the complaint in June 2008. In February 2009, the Second ITC Investigation was stayed pending the outcome of the First ITC Investigation. The target date currently set by the ITC for the conclusion of the Second ITC Investigation is February 2010.

The district court in the California Litigation has vacated the trial schedule and stayed all proceedings pending a final resolution of the First ITC Investigation. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“PTO”) has also instituted reexamination proceedings on all of the patents Tessera has asserted in the California Litigation and the Second ITC Investigation. It is not possible to predict the outcome of the California Litigation or the Second ITC Investigation, the total costs of resolving the California Litigation and the Second ITC Investigation, or when the stay in the California Litigation will be lifted; nor is it possible to predict the outcome of the First ITC Investigation or the Texas Action.Nor is it possible to predict the outcome of the PTO proceedings or their impact on the California Litigation, the First ITC Investigation and the Second ITC Investigation.

The Company believes that it has a meritorious defense to these claims and intend to defend the lawsuit(s) vigorously. A court or ITC determination that the Company’s products or processes infringe the intellectual property rights of others could result in significant liability and/or require the Company to make material changes to its products and/or processes. Due to the inherent uncertainties of the lawsuit(s) and investigation(s), the Company cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome and it could result in significant liability and/or injunction and could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and the results of operations of the Company.

In addition, the Company is subject to various taxes in the different jurisdictions in which it operates. These include taxes on income, property, goods and services, and other taxes. The Company submits tax returns and claims with the appropriate government taxing authorities, which are subject to examination and agreement by those taxing authorities. The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from these examinations to determine adequacy of provision for taxes.

In connection with the merger of STATS and ChipPAC, the Company assumed certain contingent liabilities. In 2002, an assessment of approximately 16.0 billion South Korean Won (approximately $11,617 based on the exchange rate as of January 30, 2009) was made by the South Korean National Tax Service (the “NTS”), relating to withholding tax not collected on the interest income on the loan from ChipPAC’s Hungarian subsidiary to its South Korean subsidiary for the period from 1999 to September 2001. The Company does not believe that the prevailing tax treaty requires withholding tax on the transaction in question. ChipPAC has appealed this assessment through the NTS’s Mutual Agreement Procedure (“MAP”). In July 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. ChipPAC complied with the guarantee request in July 2002. A further assessment of 2.7 billion South Korean Won (approximately $1,935 based on the exchange rate as of January 30, 2009) was made against ChipPAC in January 2004 for interest expense from October 2001 to May 2002. ChipPAC engaged in a MAP and obtained suspension of the additional proposed assessment by providing a corporate guarantee in the amount of the additional assessment. The MAP was due to terminate on July 3, 2007 if not extended by the NTS. Prior to the termination, NTS extended the MAP on June 4, 2007. Based on South Korean tax law, the extension period should not exceed three years. In the event that the Company is not successful with its appeal, the Company estimates that the maximum amount payable by the Company,

including potential interest and local surtax, as of December 28, 2008 to be 35.2 billion South Korean Won (approximately $25,514 based on the exchange rate as of January 30, 2009). The final outcome of the resolution of this matter could result in significant liability and could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations of the Company.

23. Restructuring Charges

The restructuring charges of $19,790 in 2008 consist of severance and related charges in connection with the reduction of the Company’s workforce including the reduction of approximately 335 employees in the first quarter 2008 and approximately 1,600 employees which the Company announced in December 2008 in response to the global economic downturn. The workforce reduction announced in December 2008 is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2009.

The restructuring charges of $1,938 and $990 in 2006 and 2007 consist of severance and related charges in connection with the reduction in workforce by 556 and 143 employees, respectively.

25. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

As more fully discussed in Note 1 (ee), effective in 2008, the Company adopted SFAS 157 for measuring financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized at fair value in the financial statements. The following information as it pertains to 2008 is presented in accordance with the requirements of SFAS 157. Information pertaining to 2007 is presented in accordance with the disclosure requirements in effect prior to the adoption of SFAS 157.

The Company utilizes the market approach to measure fair value for its financial assets and liabilities. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.

The following table sets forth the fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for, at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 28, 2008:

Unrealized gains or losses on marketable securities and foreign currency forward contracts are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) at each measurement date. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term borrowings and long-term debts are equal to their fair value.

The following table sets forth the estimated fair value of the Company’s financial liabilities that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 28, 2008:


	Estimated Fair Value
	December 28, 2008
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

Liabilities:
Senior notes	$	—	$	268,250	$	—

	$	—	$	268,250	$	—

The carrying values of the senior notes as of December 28, 2008 were $365,000.

The estimated fair value of financial instruments has been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates for fair value. Accordingly, these estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange. Certain of these financial instruments are with major financial institutions and expose the Company to market and credit risks and may at times be concentrated with certain counterparties or groups of counterparties. The creditworthiness of counterparties is continually reviewed, and full performance is anticipated.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value disclosures of significant classes of financial instruments as of December 30, 2007:

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are due on demand or carry a maturity date of less than three months when purchased. The carrying amount of these financial instruments is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Marketable securities

The fair value is estimated based upon the quoted market price on the last business day of the fiscal year. For securities where there are no quoted market prices, the carrying amount is assumed to be its fair value.

Restricted cash

The fair value is based on current interest rates available to the Company for time deposits and government bonds of similar terms and remaining maturities.

Short-term borrowings and long-term debts

The fair value is based on current interest rates available to the Company for issuance of debts of similar terms and remaining maturities.

Senior and convertible notes

The fair value is estimated by obtaining quotes from market and brokers or based on current rates offered to the Company or similar issues for debt of the same remaining maturities.

Limitations

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, and are based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

The following table set forth the carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments as of December 30, 2007 prior to the adoption of SFAS 157:


	December 30, 2007

Long-term debts, excluding senior and convertible notes		92,843		92,805

26. Business Segment, Geographic and Major Customer Data

Operating segments, as defined under SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” (“SFAS 131”) are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company has identified its individual geographic operating locations as its operating segments. All material geographical operating locations qualify for aggregation under SFAS 131 due to similarities in economic characteristics, nature of services, market base and production process. Accordingly, the operating segments have been aggregated into one reportable segment.

Revenues by major service line and by geographical areas (identified by location of customer headquarters) were:

Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We reported separately on the consolidated financial statements of the Group on March 9, 2009 and our report is included thereon.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of (a) temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes, and (b) operating loss and unutilized capital allowance carryforwards. The tax effect of significant items comprising the Company’s deferred income tax assets are as follows:


	December 30,			December 28,
	2007			2008
Deferred income tax assets:
Operating loss carryforwards	$	4,285		$	4,285
Property, plant and equipment		42,985			43,335
Others		332			405

		47,602			48,025
Valuation allowance		(41,702	)		(48,025	)

Net deferred income tax assets	$	5,900		$	—

		The Company recorded a valuation allowance of $41,702 and $48,025 as of December 30, 2007 and December 28, 2008, respectively, which represents an increase of $6,323 in 2008 to reduce the assets to the amounts that the Company deemed, more likely than not, that the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income based on business plans, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible, the Company established a full valuation allowance against its gross deferred tax assets to reduce the assets to the amount the Company deemed, more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized.

		The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48 in 2007. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company recognized an additional $360 liability on unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions and accounted for the increase as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle that resulted in an increase to accumulated deficit of $360 as of January 1, 2007. In 2008, the Company decreased its unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions by $177 as a result of lapse of statute limitation.

		Changes in share ownership by shareholder may result in a limitation on the amount of the Singapore net operating losses and unutilized capital allowances that are available as carryforwards for use by the Company. The Company reviewed the tax effect of such a shareholder change in connection with the tender offer by STSPL in 2007. In January 2008, the Singapore tax authorities confirmed that the limitations relating to the Company’s ability to carryforward certain Singapore tax losses and capital allowances for offset against future taxable profits of the Company in connection with the tender offer by STSPL were not affected subject to fulfillment of certain continuing conditions. Concurrently, approximately $311,611 of such tax losses and capital allowance carryforwards continued to be made available to the Company operations in Singapore. As of December 28, 2008, the Company has approximately $23,805 and $287,806 of tax loss carryforwards and unutilized capital allowances which can, subject to the relevant provision of the Singapore Income Tax Act, be carried forward and utilized against future taxable profits.

19.		Share Capital, Additional Paid-in Capital, and Share Options and Incentive Plans

		The Company is incorporated in Singapore. Under Singapore law, all increases in share capital (including rights issues) require prior shareholders’ approval. Effective January 30, 2006, the Company was subjected to the amendments promulgated under the Companies (Amendment) Act 2005 of Singapore. These amendments included the abolition of the ordinary share par value and authorized capital. The relevant amendments have resulted in all ordinary shares being recorded with no par value. The amendments do not affect the actual number of ordinary shares issued and the paid up capital of the Company. As a result of the abolition of the ordinary share par value, the balance of the additional paid-in capital amounting to $1,517,175 became part of the share capital account as of January 30, 2006 and increased the share capital account on that date to $1,820,277.

		Refer to Note 18 and 21 of the consolidated financial statements for details of the Share Capital and Additional Paid-in Capital, and Share Options and Incentive Plans, respectively.

		In February 2006, the Company, ChipPAC and STATS ChipPAC (BVI) Limited were named as defendants in a patent infringement lawsuit filed in United States Federal Court for the Northern District of California (the “California Litigation”). The plaintiff, Tessera Technologies, Inc. (“Tessera”), has asserted that semiconductor chip packaging, specifically devices having Ball Grid Array (“BGA”) and multi-chip BGA configurations used by the defendants infringe certain patents of Tessera. Tessera has further asserted that the Company is in breach of an existing license agreement entered into by Tessera with ChipPAC, which agreement has been assigned by ChipPAC to the Company.

		In May 2007, at Tessera’s request, the United States International Trade Commission (the “ITC”) instituted an investigation (the “First ITC Investigation”) of certain of the Company’s co-defendants in the California Litigation and other companies, including certain of the Company’s customers. In addition, in April 2007, Tessera instituted an action in the Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Texas (the “Texas Action”) against certain of the Company’s co-defendants in the California Litigation and other companies. In the First ITC Investigation, Tessera seeks an order preventing the named companies from importing certain packaged semiconductor chips and products containing them into the United States. The Texas Action seeks damages and injunctive relief against the named defendants. Both the First ITC Investigation and the Texas Action allege infringement of two of the same patents asserted by Tessera in the California Litigation, and may involve some of the same products packaged by the Company that are included in the California Litigation. The target date currently set by the ITC for the conclusion of the First ITC Investigation is April 2009.

		In May 2008, the ITC instituted an investigation (the “Second ITC Investigation”) of the Company and other semiconductor package assembly service providers that are included in the California Litigation. In the Second ITC Investigation, Tessera seeks an order to prevent the Company and other named companies (collectively, the “Respondents”) from providing packaging or assembly services for certain packaged semiconductor chips incorporating small format non-tape BGA semiconductor packages and products containing them, for importation into the United States. In addition, Tessera seeks a general exclusion order excluding from importation all small format non-tape BGA semiconductor packages (and downstream products containing such packages), regardless of whether such packages are assembled by the Respondents. The Second ITC Investigation alleges infringement of three of the same patents asserted by Tessera in the California Litigation. The Company responded to the complaint in June 2008. In February 2009, the Second ITC Investigation was stayed pending the outcome of the First ITC Investigation. The target date currently set by the ITC for the conclusion of the Second ITC Investigation is February 2010.

		The district court in the California Litigation has vacated the trial schedule and stayed all proceedings pending a final resolution of the First ITC Investigation. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“PTO”) has also instituted reexamination proceedings on all of the patents Tessera has asserted in the California Litigation and the Second ITC Investigation. It is not possible to predict the outcome of the California Litigation or the Second ITC Investigation, the total costs of resolving the California Litigation and the Second ITC Investigation, or when the stay in the California Litigation will be lifted; nor is it possible to predict the outcome of the First ITC Investigation or the Texas Action.Nor is it possible to predict the outcome of the PTO proceedings or their impact on the California Litigation, the First ITC Investigation and the Second ITC Investigation.

		The Company believes that it has a meritorious defense to these claims and intend to defend the lawsuit(s) vigorously. A court or ITC determination that the Company’s products or processes infringe the intellectual property rights of others could result in significant liability and/or require the Company to make material changes to its products and/or processes. Due to the inherent uncertainties of the lawsuit(s) and investigation(s), the Company cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome and it could result in significant liability and/or injunction and could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and the results of operations of the Company.

		In addition, the Company is subject to various taxes in the different jurisdictions in which it operates. These include taxes on income, property, goods and services, and other taxes. The Company submits tax returns and claims with the appropriate government taxing authorities, which are subject to examination and agreement by those taxing authorities. The Company regularly assesses the
